The Goddess is Sweet and Aloof
Chapter 353 - Chapter 353 Chapter 353_1

Chapter 353: Chapter 353_1 Chapter 353: Chapter 353_1 Qiao Xiaren instinctively tried to struggle, but his arms tightened around her: “Don’t move, careful not to fall.”

Seeing the two of them together was exceptionally pleasing to Aunt Ping’s eyes, she smiled in satisfaction and headed to the kitchen intending to whip up a few small dishes.

Seeing Si Limo, Qiao Xiaren was a bit surprised: “How did you suddenly appear in my home?”

“To congratulate you in advance on winning the Best Actress, so I came over. How could I be missing at such an important moment?” Si Limo looked down at the frowning Qiao Xiaren, a faint light flickering in his eyes, his smiling features looking extraordinarily refined under the light.

“Hmm, uninvited, such is the style of Young Master Si.” Qiao Xiaren slapped his hand, “Put me down, I can walk myself.”

“Not sleepy anymore?”

“You are interrupting my sweet dream, how could I still be sleepy?” Qiao Xiaren glanced at him, Si Limo had a seemingly thoughtful look, “Seems like I came at the right time, appearing while you’re sleepy. For now, whenever you feel tired, you’ll probably think of me.”

“…” What kind of logic is this?

“You said you came to celebrate my Best Actress win, but you came empty-handed. Isn’t that a bit insincere?”

Si Limo set her down, suddenly turned and gave her a smile, scrapping his finger over her nose: “Now isn’t this a fussy little woman. If I really didn’t bring anything to celebrate today, were you planning to send me packing?”

Such an intimate gesture, Qiao Xiaren wasn’t quite accustomed to it. She moved back but was then pulled into his arms by the man, her hands resting against his chest creating some distance and lessening the ambiguity.

“You’re all over me as soon as you come in, don’t you have any self-restraint?”

“Who was the one who said they wanted to try being with me?” Si Limo looked at her, a magnetic, killer smile on his lips, his hand gripped her slender waist, again forcefully drawing her into his broad chest.

Qiao Xiaren instinctively hugged his neck. From a distance, their poses and expressions were suggestive, there was a distinct sense of intimacy between them.

“I’ll take that text message as your surrender, and I’ll keep it as evidence. Last time you danced so provocatively with Chu Yifei, I didn’t say anything. If it were any other man, they would’ve dragged you home and made you pay.”

“…” Suddenly, Qiao Xiaren felt that Si Limo seemed a bit petty. It’s been so long and he still remembers it so clearly!

Especially that ‘made you pay’ phrase that came out of his mouth, Qiao Xiaren felt a chill lodge in her back, as if a cold wind had blown through.

“I said after we finish filming in Prague, it hasn’t started yet.” He was like the gentle sunlight, gradually melting the ice in her heart. Although Qiao Xiaren at this time was still somewhat confused, she was slowly accepting him.

The tragedy of the past life, she wasn’t in the wrong, yet she was the one who got punished. After meeting the overpowering Ye Mohan in the backstage makeup room, Xiaren suddenly felt that she was foolish and innocent.

She didn’t want to miss out on the love and warmth she could have just because of a jerk like Ye Mohan. Since there was a man right in front of her who was willing to open his arms for her, why couldn’t she try to accept it?

Refusing to accept a new relationship because of the hurt caused by a scum like Ye Mohan, she was really foolish! This was also why Qiao Xiaren agreed to give it a try with Si Limo.
