Chapter 215: Chapter 215: Sang Qiao, be more patient

"So that’s how it is." Meng Jiahe kept reflecting on those words, silently learning that chasing a man shouldn’t be too clingy—whether that was correct, she was not sure.

But seeing the way Si Chenli treated Qiaoqiao darling, she selectively chose to believe it was true.

Once again, Sang Qiao arrived at the Si Group. The receptionist did not stop her but let her directly go up.

When she got to Si Chenli’s office, she saw the assistant with a bruised and swollen face smiling at her, "Miss Sang Qiao, please come in. The misunderstanding about the previous contract was my fault, and I misinterpreted Mr. Si’s intentions, doing the wrong thing. Please don’t misjudge Mr. Si because of it."

The assistant was in agony; he was busy running around all day with work and had to endure Mr. Si’s coldness back at the company, and after work, he had to spar with clients—he was not good at boxing, essentially he just got hit.

He really didn’t want to go on living such a miserable life; he just hoped Sang Qiao would quickly placate Mr. Si.

"Did Si Chenli do this?" Sang Qiao frowned delicately, gazing at the injuries on the assistant’s face.

"No, no, no, Mr. Si has always been amiable to his subordinates; he would absolutely not do such a thing. I fell myself," the assistant explained eagerly, afraid that Miss Sang Qiao would deepen her misunderstanding about his boss.

But his demeanor seemed more like a guilty conscience. Sang Qiao withdrew her gaze and pushed the door open to enter.

Si Chen sat on the sofa chair, expression neutral, seriously looking at the contract in his hand.

Only when Sang Qiao got closer did she realize he was holding the contract upside down. She tugged at the corner of her mouth, "Have you been looking at that contract the whole time?"

"What is it?" Si Chen raised his eyes briefly, his dark gaze unfathomable; he hadn’t noticed anything amiss.

"Really impressive, is it more convenient to read the words upside down?" Sang Qiao laughed lightly, pointing to the contract in his hands.

The man looked down and realized it was indeed upside down. When he heard their conversation outside the door, he had focused on listening, not expecting her to push the door so suddenly, and he just picked up the contract from the desk to cover up.

Now exposed by the young lady, his expression became somewhat stiff.

"Still mad at me? If you’re still giving me cold looks, I’ll just leave." Sang Qiao considerately turned the contract right-side-up for him and mimicked a walking stance as if she intended to leave.

Si Chen suddenly stretched out a large hand and grabbed her wrist with a firm press onto his knee.

His strong hands encircled her waist, "Sang Qiao, is that all the patience you have?"

"Look here." Sang Qiao sat on his long legs, her red lips curled involuntarily as she reached into her pocket and pulled out a crumpled piece of paper.

Si Chen’s brows furrowed slightly, but he still released her wrist and unfolded the crumpled paper to see.

"I Hung My Naughty Boyfriend Up and Hit Him for Days."

Just seeing these words, Si Chen’s face already darkened.

Sang Qiao also looked down and saw the inappropriate note, hurriedly taking out another piece of paper from another pocket, "Haha... wrong one, wrong one, this is it."

"Wilderness Escape"

Content: Fifty members to survive on their own in wild mountains and ridges, with various crises set up along the way, and only those who make it out successfully without quitting pass.

"What does this mean?" Si Chen, looking at the information about the reality show, looked up at her.

"Last time you joined a reality show to chase after me, this time I’m joining a reality show to chase you, and to make amends. Just not sure if Mr. Si has the time?"

"...Are you hoping I’ll be silenced on such a show?" Si Chen’s thin lips lifted slightly, a small change quickly suppressed.

With just a little bit of effort from her to placate him, the anger in his heart had already vanished without a trace.

"I’ll protect you." Sang Qiao turned back to look at him, silently reaching to snatch back that "beating" note, but as her hand barely touched it.

Si Chen’s large palm covered hers, folding the paper neatly into his hand, his eyes profound, his thin lips parting slightly: "I won’t leave your side."

"Sure!" Sang Qiao nodded sincerely and blinked, "Can I... have that note about slapping my boyfriend back?"

"Nope, confiscated." Si Chenli’s thin lips curved slightly as he put the note straight into the pocket of his dress pants.

Sang Qiao: "...!"

"I’ll have someone take you back. When you’re pursuing someone, you have to be patient, got it?" Si Chenli wrapped his arms around her waist and helped her to stand, his voice deep and magnetic, extremely pleasing to the ear.

He gently reached out to tidy up the messy hair on her forehead, "Alright, let’s go."

"Aren’t you taking me back?" Sang Qiao kept looking back at him as she took her steps.

"Busy." Si Chenli’s clearly defined large palm unconsciously tightened, he said indifferently.

"Fine then, I’m leaving." Sang Qiao didn’t insist and was very considerate as she walked out the door.

Once Si Chenli was alone in the office, the air was so quiet there wasn’t a sound. He gripped his pen tighter and tighter until he snapped it in half.

She was always perfectly measured with him, never overstepping boundaries, and it was precisely because of this he understood, she didn’t love him that much.

But none of that mattered; he would teach her to learn. This time, he was willing to let her go because she came back on her own, so... there wouldn’t be a next time.

He had already given her the chance to leave.

Si Chenli tossed the broken pen away, stood up, and prepared to go downstairs to see where she was.

Suddenly, a small head popped up at the door again. Sang Qiao wore a sweet smile, "You really won’t take me back?"

Si Chenli was stunned. He silently watched her, seemingly unable to believe she was still there.

He didn’t speak but walked out of his office with long strides, using his actions to tell her.

—I’ll take you home. frёewebηovel.cѳm

"Were you really angry just now?" Sang Qiao followed him, stepping behind.

"No." Si Chenli’s face remained expressionless, though his tone was noticeably better than before.

He found greater joy in the fact that instead of pressing him to take her back, she said she’d leave but actually didn’t, more than if she had been more persistent.

"I saw it, you broke the pen," said Sang Qiao, word by word.

"An accident," the man’s face looked a bit uneasy; he had just felt an urge to vent his anger at the moment.

"I don’t believe you."

"Hmm."

"Wilderness Escape," a reality show known for being arduous and dangerous, is usually avoided as if it were the plague by everyone but, yes! The hefty prize money for the top ten positions frequently attracts some cash-strapped, little-known artists.

The director is also rather bold, not afraid to offend anyone, which means appearing on the show usually results in one of two extremes: either skyrocketing to fame or leaving behind a pile of scandals.

This time the addition of Si Chenli and Sang Qiao to the cast was specially marked by the director to heat up the show before it started.

This also sparked excitement among a large number of netizens.

[Wow, are Qiao Li CP going to make a comeback?]

[Ahhhh, it’s been so long since there was news about Sister Qiao; I’m so looking forward to it.]

[Guys, don’t joke around. Mr. Si and Sang Qiao are long broken up in real life. A friend of mine who works at Si Group said that last time Sang Qiao shamelessly went to see Mr. Si, she was rejected and didn’t even get the chance to meet him, left waiting downstairs!]
