The Reincarnated Goddess is Fierce

Chapter 466: Let Me Hold You

Since the previous events, the two sides were almost inconsolable. Everyone still maintained a basic courtesy, but only on the surface.

If it was before, Qiao Yanjue would still somewhat listen to Qiao Weiyue, since the man was his elder brother.

However, it was already a family favor for him to even go pay his nephew a visit.

“Third sister and third brother-in-law have been here for so many years, they must know more people than I do. Besides, doesn’t my sister-in-law also have relatives over here? Look for them. They are definitely more capable than me,” Qiao Yanjue said nonchalantly. “If you think I’m not doing good enough, then come over yourself.”

“Zhikun is your nephew!” Qiao Weiyue was angry.

“So what?” Qiao Yanjue hummed lightly, “I’ve been incompetent, don’t you know that? Why don’t you guys go talk to Dad?”

Qiao Weiyue instantly became silent.

If the old man knew what Zhikun had done, he would beat them with a stick!

Drugs were absolutely untouchable! If they dared to touch even a little, they would be killed!

“I…”

“Well, I have something to deal with. I have to go.”

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

On the other end, Qiao Weiyue was so angry that he stomped his feet. Qiao Yanjue was too disrespectful!

Watching him hang up two calls in a row, Xia Xibei clearly felt that his relationship with his siblings was really bad.

“Are you okay?”

“It’s okay.” Qiao Yanjue turned up the corner of his mouth, his smile a little stiff.

The lonely aura that radiated around him made Xia Xibei’s heart ache for him a little.

She reached out and patted him on the shoulder.

“It’s okay, you don’t have to deal with them- Ooof!”

She hadn’t even finished her sentence before she winced, because Qiao Yanjue had suddenly turned around and embraced her.

She almost subconsciously tossed him out.

Qiao Yanjue buried his face in the crook of her neck and said in a muffled voice, “Don’t move, let me hold you for a bit.”

Xia Xibei’s movements froze, and her heart was a little stifled, aching for him.

She understood the feeling of being hurt over and over again by family.

After being hurt so many times, one naturally became invincible.

She had already reached the invincible level. Qiao Yanjue did not have a similar situation, so it was not so easy for him to become as hard-hearted.

The more you cared, the easier it was to be hurt.

For a moment, a wave of empathetic sadness welled up in her heart.

She patted his back, softened her body, and said in a warm voice, “It’s okay, you still have us.”

Qiao Yanjue hugged her soft and slender waist, his emotions instantly healing a lot.

He was getting more and more disgusted with his siblings; he wanted to throw them out.

Their so-called blood ties were completely unable to overcome their interests.

If so, there was no need to continue the entanglements.

The two of them quietly cuddled, everything outside seeming to disappear. The air was much calmer now.

Ding! The elevator door made a crisp sound.

Before the two had a chance to separate, Liu Manhong’s voice rang out in surprise.

“Aiya! What’s going on here?”

What the- It had only been a few days since she’d seen them, but they were progressing so quickly?

Xia Xibei immediately pushed Qiao Yanjue away, her face all red.

“Sister Hong, why are you up here?”

“I came up to look for you.” Liu Manhong looked at them and tsked, “What are you doing here? Filming an idol drama?”

She had to say that the couple’s faces were indeed idol-worthy, but there was no need to hug so much out here.

Xia Xibei’s face was red. She couldn’t say she was comforting Qiao Yanjue, now could she?

This way of comforting felt strange.

She hurriedly took out the key to open the door, “Come in first.”
