The Reincarnated Goddess is Fierce

Chapter 689 - I Will Always Be With You

Chapter 689: I Will Always Be With You

After blurting out the words, Qiao Yanjue froze once again.

They fell silent.

A few moments later, Qiao Yanjue finally spoke up, “When I came over this time, I really wanted to see you. I wanted to see if you’ve been eating properly, if you’ve been resting properly, if you’ve had any problems…”

Only when he saw that all was well with Xia Xibei could he rest assured. Otherwise, he couldn’t concentrate on his work.

Qiao Yanjue’s words made Xia Xibei’s face start to burn and her heart beat faster and faster.

He really liked her!

“So… You like me?” she asked, biting her lip.

“Of course I like you!” Qiao Yanjue nodded emphatically.

Since he’d said it all, there was no need to hide anything.

“If you don’t like me…”

“What are you going to do about it?” Xia Xibei jerked her head up and stared at him intently.

Qiao Yanjue was startled by her fierce gaze, but continued, “I will just pursue you properly.”

He couldn’t just give up when Xia Xibei said she didn’t like him, could he?

That was not how he did things.

As soon as the words left his mouth, Xia Xibei’s face blossomed into a big smile.

Qiao Yanjue also froze, and his heart couldn’t help but bloom with joy.

“You…”

“I like you too!”

Xia Xibei blushed, but she smiled brightly at him, then rushed into his arms like a cannonball and gave him a hug.

Qiao Yanjue’s body had the scent of shower gel, making Xia Xibei’s mind a little foggy, but it couldn’t erase her joy.

At this moment, she realized what the most wonderful joy in the world felt like.

In the next second, an inexplicable wave of emotions rose up, and she couldn’t help but cry, tears pouring out of her eyes.

Qiao Yanjue was surprised by Xia Xibei’s reaction and her sudden crying, immediately becoming anxious.

“What’s wrong? Why are you crying? Is something wrong?”

He frantically grabbed Xia Xibei with his hands, his face turning white.

What happened? Why was she suddenly crying?

“Don’t cry, don’t cry! Tell me what’s going on…”

However, the more he coaxed her, the more Xia Xibei cried.

Xia Xibei’s cries were aggravated and unrestrained.

After the extreme joy, what followed was the aggravation and hurt that surged violently from her heart.

In her first life, she was the equivalent of an orphan, with almost no parents or friends, and only knew malice and attacks from all sides.

In her second life, she had the care of her teacher, but not much time together.

In this life, although there were quite a few friends, that kind of feeling was not the same.

“Don’t cry, baby…”

Qiao Yanjue tried to comfort Xia Xibei, becoming so anxious that he wanted to cry himself.

A person who usually didn’t cry at all suddenly crying like this was really heartbreaking.

It was only after a long time that Xia Xibei’s sobs subsided and she spoke with a sobbing voice, “Will you always be with me?”

Qiao Yanjue froze for a moment, only then understanding why she was crying, before immediately becoming even more distressed.

“Of course I will!” he nodded seriously, “I will always be with you!”

Hearing his promise, Xia Xibei felt more warmth well up in her heart.

Qiao Yanjue looked at her and reiterated, “I’ll always be with you!”

Xia Xibei finally broke into a smile.

In the next second, however, the two people were petrified.

Xia Xibei saw a certain part of his body out of the corner of her eye, and subconsciously looked over again. When she saw that part clearly, she turned around violently, her little face bursting red!

Qiao Yanjue’s reaction was also very fast. He quickly turned around, rushed into the room, and closed the door.

The door slammed shut before Xia Xibei turned around and saw the bath towel on the floor, the corners of her mouth twitching.
