The Goddess is Sweet and Aloof
Chapter 494 - Chapter 494 Chapter 494_1

Chapter 494: Chapter 494_1 Chapter 494: Chapter 494_1 Si Limo drove the car, his slender, attractive hands rested on the steering wheel. He looked over through his sunglasses, a smile curling up at his lips.

Qiao Xiaren waved at him, her face wearing an ever-expanding smile.

This slow-motion scene was like something out of an idol drama, the two leads just missing each other.

Qiao Lang stopped the car on impulse, suddenly having this thought and became somewhat entranced.

Once, in her most beautiful prime, like Xiaren, she too had looked at a man, loved a man, and even waited for a man.

“Auntie…”

Just as Qiao Xiaren turned her head, wanting to explain something, she saw Qiao Lang’s understanding expression. “Go ahead, I was young once, too. I know what you young ones are thinking. It’s normal for young couples to be sweet to each other.”

“Then I’ll go first. Auntie, I’ll see you at the banquet later.”

“Ah, go ahead. It gives me a chance to pick up your cousins.” Qiao Lang lightly patted her niece’s hand, wearing a warm smile.

Qiao Xiaren opened the car door and walked towards Si Limo. The car door opened, she bent over and got into the passenger seat.

“Looks like you’re dressed up for the night.” Qiao Xiaren examined him from head to toe, Si Limo usually would wear a suit for formal occasions, but this felt different.

“Do you like how I look today?”

“Not bad.” Qiao Xiaren looked at him. “When will you start the smuggling operation?”

Hearing Qiao Xiaren suddenly bring this up, Si Limo glanced at her, a smile tugging at his lips. “Why the sudden interest? Are you worried about me?”

“If you think so, then yes.”

He suddenly reached out, holding Qiao Xiaren’s hand. “Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of myself. How could I bear not to see my beauty in this world?”

“I want to go with you.”

Qiao Xiaren looked at him, her beautiful eyes fixed on him, speaking nothing but the truth.

“No, it’s too dangerous.” Si Limo refused without thinking, “I will return very soon, believe me.”

This was the first time Qiao Xiaren found out this man could be so stubborn. No matter what she said, he wouldn’t listen. She kept quiet, thinking it might be easier to break through from another angle.

Si Limo started the engine and the car sped off on the highway.

There was a sudden silence in the car.

He knew that Qiao Xiaren was not in a good mood at the moment, but he did not say anything to comfort her, until they got off the car, he held her hand. Qiao Xiaren followed him, occasionally looking at his back, lost in her thoughts.

“Are you mad?”

Si Limo suddenly turned around, his arm wrapped around her waist pulling her close to him, his other hand pushing her hair behind, sighing lightly.

“I just don’t want you to be in any slightest danger. This is a man’s job.”

“Limo, I’m not an ordinary woman.” Qiao Xiaren’s eyes were calm, “Maybe I’m not like other women who need to act cute and rely on a man’s protection. To me, love is about being with someone who matches you, enjoying the beauty of the world together. You are the hero of the nation, but Qiao Xiaren is not your delicate beauty. She has her own passion and the courage to stand beside you.”

The smuggling incident in her previous life was extremely dangerous, with two groups of ruthless and powerful opponents, especially Dark Night. Qiao Xiaren not only wanted to keep Si Limo out of danger, but also wanted to hit Dark Night hard.
