Chapter 1461: Chapter 1428: Past and Present Lives 26
He thought that his emotions had reached an uncontrollable state.
No matter what kind of obstacles lay between them, once he was acutely aware of his feelings for this woman, there was no turning back.
Since he was already in love, he could only continue moving forward, as he had no retreat.
Regardless of her status, or anyone’s strange glances, he wanted her.
“Let get up first,” Qiao Xiaren’s voice sounded, and Si Limo gazed deeply at her before releasing her from his hold. Qiao Xiaren sat up, tying her loose hair back.
“When do you plan to get a divorce?” Si Limo was relentless, resembling a jealous husband. It seed that if she uttered a refusal, he would instantly turn into a savage beast and tear her apart.
This side of Si Limo left Qiao Xiaren feeling alard.
She was utterly defeated in front of him.
Divorce was inevitable, but Qiao Xiaren wanted to understand a fact.
She didn’t look up to et his eyes, simply asking in a low voice, “Why… do you have to force to divorce?”
So emotions seed to be clearly understood in their hearts.
Yet Qiao Xiaren wanted this answer but was also afraid of hearing it. After a long ti without his reply, she raised her head in so confusion.
This question was essentially a confession.
Si Limo wanted to speak his mind honestly, as she was right in front of him, beside him, in an atmosphere that couldn’t be more fitting.
But when it ca to expressing himself, a wave of nervousness inexplicably surged, making it hard for him to et her gaze, his entire face felt flushed with heat.
Just as he was about to speak, Si Yelin’s knock at the door was suddenly heard: “Xiaren, Xiaren? Isn’t it almost ti? I heard Mary calling for the gathering downstairs.”
Si Yelin tactfully didn’t push the door open, aware that he’d need so savvy to survive in front of his brother these days.
Qiao Xiaren was jolted awake by Si Yelin’s words; indeed, an hour had nearly passed, and she needed to begin her training session with the instructor.
“I’m heading down first.”
Qiao Xiaren let out a breath of relief, instinctively avoiding hearing the answer from his mouth. The events of the day had thoroughly disturbed her heart.
Si Limo gave a soft “hmm” from behind, quickly adding, “I’ll wait for you to have dinner tonight.”
Qiao Xiaren didn’t reply, only pausing her steps briefly, responding softly, then pushed open the door to head downstairs. She barely glanced at Si Yelin, only exchanged brief greetings, and hurriedly went down.
Without needing to ask anything, Si Yelin already understood the gist of the situation.
Indeed, progress had been made between the two!
Who said his brother lacked emotional intelligence (wasn’t it you who said so?)? His assertive attitude, evident in the right mont, was setting trends in charming a girl.
Qiao Xiaren went downstairs, seeing seven trainees lined up neatly.
Seeing her arrival, a few people’s gazes changed subtly, hinting at a bit of sarcasm. Being late to Maria’s class, did she think just because Maria’s attitude softened slightly over the past few days, she could act arrogant?
However, Qiao Xiaren kept her gaze straight and directly stood at the very edge.
Maria rely glanced at Qiao Xiaren, her stern face revealing a faint gentle look. This girl trained diligently, and despite being aloof, she was definitely a promising talent.
Unfortunately, nobody knew what she had gone through in the past, as she bore nurous small and large scars. During the initial examination, even soone who had been hard-hearted for most of their life couldn’t help but be shocked, feeling their eyes sting.
But it’s not a big deal; with so lasers, they can be removed. To be a star, one still needs to care about appearances.
