The Goddess is Sweet and Aloof
Chapter 812 - Chapter 812 Chapter 811 Encounter

Chapter 812: Chapter 811: Encounter Chapter 812: Chapter 811: Encounter “Not wanting to is not the issue, it’s that she could never become your sister-in-law,” Si Limo said coldly, merely stating a fact.

Upon hearing Si Limo’s definite declaration, Si Zhilan’s heart finally settled down. If her brother said something was out of the question, then it couldn’t possibly happen.

“How does Xiaren think about this?” Madam Si was not worried about Si Limo, but rather worried about Qiao Xiaren.

She was just eighteen and didn’t know if she could settle down.

In the future, many matters would probably have to be undertaken jointly by the two of them, until they grew old together.

“It doesn’t matter who it is, no one should think about separating us,” Qiao Xiaren said resolutely as she looked at her. “Love and marriage have always been matters for two people. As long as he is sure about me and I am sure about him, then it no longer concerns anyone else. No matter what conspiracies are devised behind the scenes, they are just a clown’s performance, only adding to the amusement.”

Hearing her say this, Madam Si’s eyes suddenly glazed over and her gaze slowly retracted, resting on her, “It’s rare for someone of your young age to understand things that many people won’t grasp in their entire lives.”

“Xiaren, when do you plan to marry my brother?” Si Zhilan asked mischievously, the car suddenly quieted for a few seconds as if everyone was waiting for her answer.

“Um, maybe after you find your other half.”

Si Zhilan: “…”

Knowing she didn’t have a boyfriend, was that deliberate?

Indeed, Madam Si’s attention shifted, “Zhilan, you’re over twenty, how come there’s still no movement? From the last introductions by Madam Li, wasn’t there anyone you liked?”

“I… I’m still young.”

“You’re still young in your twenties?”

Si Limo smiled helplessly.

…

After placing the luggage in the hotel, it was almost 12:30 PM, lunchtime.

This street was close to Chinatown, making it easy to find a Chinese restaurant.

Unfortunately, Qiao Xiaren happened to spot Lan Lan there. Initially, she thought she was mistaken, but Lan Lan suddenly looked back, her delicate face fully exposed to view.

Why was she seeing the person she least wanted to meet everywhere?

Lan Lan apparently saw their table, but she seemed not to notice Qiao Xiaren.

Despite the distance, Qiao Xiaren immediately recognized the woman beside her, the oil tycoon’s daughter from Adelaide, Maria.

Lan Lan walked over gracefully and greeted politely, “Auntie Si, long time no see. I didn’t expect you to be in New York too.”

Her gaze casually flicked over and she smiled at Si Limo, “Long time no see, Limo.”

She had known him since childhood, so she didn’t think it inappropriate to address him this way. However, the faces of those at the table stiffened momentarily, almost unable to continue the conversation.

Si Limo showed no change in emotion, just methodically picking out fish bones and placing them on the rice bowl beside him.

Only then did Lan Lan notice the fourth person present. She was surprised to see Qiao Xiaren, but quickly regained her previous grace. After all, everyone here had a reputation to uphold, and wouldn’t truly do anything undignified.

“Miss Lan, long time no see.”

“You?”

Lan Lan hadn’t expected Qiao Xiaren to be together with Madam Si; had she already gained the recognition of the Si Family? That was too fast and too easy.

The status of the Lan Family was not low; did she really not have any chance left?

Maria’s attention shifted to Qiao Xiaren the moment she spoke, recognizing her immediately as the young woman they had met at the Superstar company headquarters.
