Chapter 786: The Boss Is Straight

Editor: Henyee Translations

Although Xiao Gu tried her best to coax Shen Xi and make her happy, the effect

was minimal.

She could only watch helplessly as Shen Xi sat there unhappily. Sometimes, she pursed her lips and didn’t say a word for a long time. Her expression was visibly depressed.

As for Xiao Gu, she wanted to ask Murong Qiao which shop the attendant who bullied Shen Xi was from. She wanted to go over and complain about it now.

“Xiao Gu, come over and help me get my things.”

Yan Xiu suddenly stuck his head out of the studio and shouted, causing Little Gu to have no choice but to let go of Shen Xi’s matter and hurriedly turn around to work.

However, she was always thinking about Shen Xi, so she was even a little absent-minded when she helped Yan Xiu move his things. When she carried the clothes, she almost fell because of the cloth scattered on the ground of the studio.

When Yan Xiu saw her performance, he frowned and asked casually, “What’s going on? You seem distracted today.”

It was not that he really blamed Xiao Gu, but the way he expressed his concern sometimes was different from ordinary people.

Xiao Gu was also used to it. She only nodded randomly and didn’t tell Yan Xiu about what Shen Xi had experienced today.

Telling the other party didn’t seem to be any different from not telling him. In any case, Yan Xiu’s personality naturally didn’t include the ability to coax people.

“Be careful not to break it.” Yan Xiu didn’t say anything else and only reminded her a few more times. “These are all things that will be used in the exhibition.

Help me arrange them in the neighboring area later and wait for the rest to come over to take them.”

Xiao Gu responded carelessly before retracting her attention. After confirming that there were no mistakes with the work on hand, she closed the door and planned to look for Shen Xi to see the situation.

In the end, when she turned around, she saw that the seat Shen Xi had been sitting on was already empty. Xiao Gu looked around and realized that there was no one in the shop at all. Then, she immediately panicked and went to take her cell phone. Only then did she realize that the other party had sent her a message a few minutes ago.

[I’ll go home first.]

It was so short that it didn’t seem like Shen Xi’s style. Xiao Gu could already imagine the other party’s terrible mood at that time.

She held her cell phone and stood rooted to the ground. For a moment, there was no movement. On the other hand, Yan Xiu, who had finished his work, rarely came out of the studio to relieve the fatigue from his work.

Yan Xiu walked to the area in front of the shop. Without Xiao Gu’s reminder, he subconsciously looked around the shop and was stunned when he realized that there was no familiar figure.

Although Yan Xiu usually didn’t pay much attention to Shen Xi, who often came to his studio, he couldn’t help but get used to seeing her sitting here for a long time every day.

Habit was a very terrifying thing.

Usually, Shen Xi would stay here and only take the car home reluctantly when it was almost dusk. Why was it that today, when the sky was still bright and the sky was clear, there was no movement?

“She went home.” Xiao Gu scratched her head. She didn’t know how to explain

it to her boss, so she remained silent in the end.

Yan Xiu didn’t notice anything. After hearing Xiao Gu’s answer, he nodded casually. Then, after staying outside for a few minutes, he went back to his studio.

As for Murong Qiao, who had sent Shen Xi back to the studio previously, she had already driven to the next workplace before Shen Xi left.

The schedule for the afternoon wasn’t tight, but when she saw a certain arrangement, Murong Qiao couldn’t help but pay more attention.

The matter of Jiang Weiyang’s previous visit to the company couldn’t be considered to be over. At the very least, her cooperation with the Jiang Family was currently underway. There was even a shoot in a studio this afternoon, and it was very important.

Thinking that Jiang Weiyang’s attitude was clearly directed at her previously, Murong Qiao couldn’t help but frown. She turned the steering wheel and turned a corner following the navigation, taking the next step in the direction indicated.

Perhaps it was because her attitude was a little anxious, or perhaps it was because the sun today had baked the road especially dry. Murong Qiao had only driven for a while and had not even increased his speed much when she felt the car suddenly stop for a moment. Then, right on the heels of that, it slowed down.

Murong Qiao glanced at her foot that was not on the brakes at all, then at the indication lights in the car. Only then did she realize that there seemed to be a problem with the tires on the right front. They were marked red on the monitor.

Helpless, she could only temporarily find a parking spot by the roadside and plan to get out of the car to take a look.

“…Puncture?”

When Murong Qiao parked the car and pushed open the car door to get out, she realized that the tire was punctured.

Why did it have to be at this moment?

Murong Qiao frowned and looked at the right tire that could no longer be driven on the road. She knew very well that she couldn’t continue using this car now, so she wondered if she could use other methods to go to the studio.

As for this car, she could only leave it to the insurance company to deal with it for the time being.

However, the car was parked in front of the highway intersection in the city. The cars coming and going were all heading straight for the inspection entrance above. Almost no one noticed this place.

Murong Qiao’s expression was tense as she looked at the cars coming and going. She was thinking that if there was really no other way, she could just book a taxi through the app. Perhaps she could make it in time. Suddenly, a jet black car that looked a little familiar slowly stopped in front of her.

“Is something wrong?”

As the car window slowly rolled down, Cen Qianmo’s familiar face appeared in front of Murong Qiao.

Murong Qiao didn’t expect to meet the other party here, but since he had already greeted her, she might as well tell him about the current situation.

Cen Qianmo glanced at the problematic tire. “It’s probably because the weather is too hot or there’s a foreign object on the road.”

“Where are you going? Why don’t I give you a ride?

Perhaps because he could tell that Murong Qiao was a little anxious, Cen Qianmo took the initiative to make such a presumptuous suggestion.

“It’s fine. I can take a taxi—”

Murong Qiao was about to say that she could just find a taxi to pick her up when she looked at the time displayed on her phone and realized that nearly ten minutes had passed.

Logically speaking, it was fine if she was a little late. However, when she thought about how Jiang Weiyang might be present this time and mess around with her work when she was not around, Murong Qiao was still a little worried. She frowned and didn’t say anything for a moment, as if she was really considering Cen Qianmo’s suggestion.

“I’m going to the An Jiang Building.” After a moment of hesitation, Murong Qiao quickly revealed her destination.

Cen Qianmo seemed to hesitate for a second before nodding. “It’s fine. It’s on the way. I can get someone to help you deal with the car.” Considering the efficiency of the journey, Murong Qiao didn’t hesitate. She opened the car door and got in.

Cen Qianmo directly transferred the address name he had just heard from Murong Qiao to the chauffeur in front and received an answer.

“Alright, we’ll arrive in 10 minutes,” the chauffeur replied.

Although it looked like a normal black sedan, it was more like an extended version of a Lincoln. The scene of them sitting together didn’t happen. Instead, Murong Qiao and Cen Qianmo sat opposite each other on both sides of a table. The space was rather spacious, and there was even some low-key and melodious music playing, making one’s originally tense mood relax unconsciously..
