The Goddess is Sweet and Aloof
Chapter 499 - Chapter 499 Chapter 499_1

Chapter 499: Chapter 499_1 Chapter 499: Chapter 499_1 In that moment, An Yuqian felt a heart-wrenching pain deep within her.

She had spent years trying to forget her own children, always deceiving herself and insisting that everyone related to the Qiao Family owed her something. But these two were her very own flesh and blood. Now that her children appeared before her eyes, her heart felt heavily suppressed.

The pain agonizingly infiltrated her heart and lungs. She didn’t know what her child’s name was, or if they had recognized the Qiao Family, or how their years outside had been.

As if entranced, An Yuqian took a deep breath, entering the hall with somewhat disoriented steps, leaving Lan Lan alone to welcome guests at the entrance.

The Scene

Inside the hall, the sound of a violin filled the air. The snow-white walls adorned with relief designs held a grand chandelier, like a flower bud, radiating a bright and lustrous light that almost illuminated the entire hall.

At the entrance, a few foreign men in black suits played their violins. Their mixed-race faces helped them draw several glances from the high-society ladies in the room.

The hall was crowded. Qiao Xiaren and Wang Yi headed straight towards the area for cakes and desserts. Wang Jingsheng had already been surrounded by a group of entrepreneurs, occasionally exchanging a few words.

A waiter walked past with wine glasses emitting a hazy glow.

Lan Tiansheng, who had arrived early, was the first to approach Si Limo: “Mr. Si, long time no see.”

The two men shook hands. Broadly talented and handsome as they were, all eyes, whether those of female stars or high-society ladies, were fixed on them.

Shen Ruyin, who had come with Lan Tiansheng, wore a black strapless dress, her fair neck framed by the straps, presenting a sexy and bewitching charm.

“How do you do, Mr. Si.”

At this moment, Shen Ruyin wasn’t a star but the bride-to-be of the Lan Family. Lan Tiansheng’s gaze naturally fell on the young girl Si Limo had brought along, purely out of curiosity.

Indeed, it was quite a surprise to see Si Limo at this kind of banquet. At the sight of him, Lan Tiansheng almost thought he was hallucinating.

From the very moment of their entrance, a large number of men deliberately approached Qiao Xiaren. Irrespective of their respective circles, none could resist.

Wang Yi was annoyed. Damn it! If this were the campus, these men would already have been severely censured and, perhaps, blacklisted on the university forum.

What trash dared to mess with Goddess Xiaran?

If they didn’t believe that she’d knock them down where they stood!

Garbage! They should really take a good look at themselves in the mirror.

However, the beautiful Qiao kept her cool. She merely gave them a glance, let them rattle by themselves and then said only one word from start to finish: “Oh.”

What was this? A queenly demeanor! Seeing the dumbfounded expressions of those men, Wang Yi could not help laughing.

Qiao Xiaren felt uncomfortable under the gazes cast at her. She coldly returned the stares and locked eyes with Lan Tiansheng, momentarily taken aback by her aura. Although she came from the entertainment industry, her temperament was entirely different from others.

It was cold, even oppressive.

Although it was just a glance, Qiao Xiaren lowered her head to continue eating her matcha cake, as Lan Tiansheng also withdrew his gaze.

The wealthy ladies and socialites all had their respective circles and mostly started chatting, waiting for the host to start the event.

The reporters, with their cameras on their shoulders, had already started tracking every celebrity’s movements. Tonight, it likely was the occasion to see the most stars in any gathering.
