BXBX NOVEL Chapter 57 - 57: Don’t You Have Any Shame?!
Qi Shenbai’s hand, which was frozen in midair, drooped down. His dark eyes flickered. His Adam’s apple bobbed as he said gently, “Then go to sleep. I’ll wake you up when we get home.”
The person under the blanket did not reply.
There was a hint of confusion in Qi Shenbai’s calm eyes. After staying by her side for a while, he turned around and returned to his original position. He said without any emotion, “Continue.”
The higher-ups looked at each other. They could clearly feel that Mr. Qi’s mood was not as good as before. It seemed that they had really underestimated the position of his young wife in Mr. Qi’s heart.
When Xu Jiaojiao heard the sound of footsteps fading into the distance, she finally lowered the blanket slightly. She first stuck her head out, but when she saw that he was not looking in her direction, she let go of the blanket completely and took a few deep breaths. She frowned in frustration and pursed her lips tightly…
‘How could 1 have… that kind of dream? And the main character was Qi Shenbai, too… Oh no, 1 must have spent too much time with Luoluo. She sullied my mind and filled it with naughty stuff. And now I’m having dirty dreams about Qi Shenbai!’
There were still two hours before they reached China, but Xu Jiaojiao could no longer fall asleep. She turned on her phone and started tapping on a Buddhist-themed idle game.
+1 merit, +1 merit, +1 merit… She had to recover all the good merits she had just lost!
She tapped on the screen for a long time, but her heart still could not calm down. Once she stopped, her mind would be filled with the image of his sweat dripping onto her collarbone. It was too much!!!
An hour and a half later, the plane landed smoothly at Luo City International Airport. Along the way, Xu Jiao jiao did not dare to say a single word to Qi Shenbai other than the few words she had said from under the blanket. In fact, she was too embarrassed to even look at him, afraid that her gaze would taint him, who was blissfully unaware of the situation. She was even more afraid that he would see through her and realize that she was having a dirty dream about him!
Qi Shenbai gave her a complicated look. He wanted to say something but hesitated a few times. In the end, he did not say anything and returned to the office.
Cang Xing sent Xu Jiaojiao back to Qingshui Villa. After taking a shower, Xu Jiaojiao took out her phone and went online. She happened to see the clarification from the Qi Group’s legal department. Below it was a photo of Qi Shenbai and Xu Jiaojiao’s marriage certificate. The ID number on the marriage certificate was redacted, revealing only the year of her birth to prove her age.
As a result, the rumors about Qi Shenbai’s pedophilia on the Internet were automatically dispelled. Netizens no longer focused on whether Xu Jiaojiao was an adult. Instead, they turned the topic back to Qi Shenbai’s private life.
The Qi Group was a well-known public company in the country. It dabbled in all kinds of industries, but there was very little news about Qi Shenbai on the Internet. He never appeared in public, nor did he accept interviews, let alone television program appearances. Therefore, very few people knew what he looked like. Even his age was a mystery.
The only photo that was sent out could not even be seen clearly. The netizens were practically using a microscope to study it and finally came to a conclusion as the CEO of the Qi Group, Qi Shenbai was much younger than everyone had imagined. His figure was also very attractive. In particular, his fingers were long and slender, perfect for people who liked that sort of thing.
Aww, another domineering CEO just got married at such an early age!
Xu Jiaojiao flipped through the comments section for a while and realized that no one was talking about Qi Shenbai’s moral degeneration and pedophilia anymore. The huge rock that had been weighing on her heart finally went away.
She put down her phone and returned to the bathroom to dry her hair, so she did not see the comments below.
Five More Minutes: [Dayum! This marriage certificate was registered in Ireland. As far as I know, Ireland is the only country in the world that doesn’t allow divorce! Goodness gracious, this domineering CEO is shockingly devoted to true love!!! Invest in him, sisters!]
In the CEO’s office on the top floor of the Qi Group’s building, Pei Yan had just finished reporting to Qi Shenbai about the direction of public opinion about him and Xu Jiaojiao on the Internet. Just as he was about to leave, he turned around and saw Xu Zhengyan rushing in.
“Mr. Xu… Wait a minute…” Pei Yan saw that something was wrong with his expression and was about to stop him, but he was shoved away.
“…” That hurts.
“Qi Shenbai, don’t you have any shame?!” Xu Zhengyang was so angry that he threw the cup in his hand at Qi Shenbai’s desk.
Qi Shenbai sat on the leather chair without moving, letting the cup fall on the table. The water splashed on his face, and the cup finally fell to the carpet with a crash, shattering into pieces..
