The Reincarnated Goddess is Fierce - Chapter 467
Chapter 467: I Didn’t Mess Around
While Xia Xibei opened the door in front of her, Liu Manhong slapped Qiao Yanjue and asked him viciously, “What were you doing?”
Qiao Yanjue didn’t notice and was slapped so fiercely that he almost had internal injuries.
He hurriedly pulled away and looked at her warily. “Don’t hit me, okay?”
“I’ll beat you to death!” Liu Manhong bared her teeth at him. “How old is Beibei?! If you dare to mess around, I’ll chop you into pieces!”
The two of them had partaken in a frank chat about Xia Xibei earlier.
Liu Manhong was neither for nor against their relationship.
Qiao Yanjue liked Xia Xibei, so he could pursue her, but only if she would not be hurt.
Also, he couldn’t mess around until she turned eighteen.
Liu Manhong was in a difficult position.
Xia Xibei was her goddaughter and Qiao Yanjue was her nephew, and she cared about both of them.
However, their status was too different.
At her age, she knew a couple’s family background needed to match to make a relationship work.
If one party was too strong or too weak, the end result would not be good. The couple might become resentful towards each other in the end.
She couldn’t bear to see them end up in such a situation.
But Qiao Yanjue was persistent and believed he could break all the barriers between them.
In that case, what could she say?
Qiao Yanjue was stubborn, and it was hard for others to convince him.
So, she could only pretend she knew nothing and let Qiao Yanjue work it out for himself.
Just now, when she watched the two of them hug each other, she was startled and thought Qiao Yanjue had taken a big step forward!
“I didn’t mess around.” Qiao Yanjue was speechless. “How could I ever dare!”
At most, he was just trying to make Xia Xibei feel sorry for him.
The biggest move he had made so far was a simple hug!
“No messing around is good.” Liu Manhong glared at him. “Or else…”
Qiao Yanjue was speechless. He knew it, he was definitely related to her.
“Sister Hong, please sit down.”
Xia Xibei had already brought water over for her.
“It’s the grand opening tomorrow, do you want to go?”
Liu Manhong took the water and stated her intention.
“I have class tomorrow,” Xia Xibei said. “However, I can take time off to go.”
“It won’t affect your studies, right?”
“It’s fine,” she shook her head. “Besides, I have an idea.”
“What idea?”
“Those whose spending is in the top ten get a free checkup and body-conditioning.”
Liu Manhong’s eyes suddenly lit up, “That’s a great idea!”
She knew about Xia Xibei’s superior medical skills. Moreover, she had personally experienced Xia Xibei’s power.
Even the best skin care products simply nourished the epidermis. If one stopped using it, one would return to their original form after a while.
Therefore, it was necessary to add conditioning.
Before, whenever Liu Manhong had her period, she was always a bit uncomfortable. After Xia Xibei’s conditioning, however, she felt fine every month.
Now, her face was much rosier, and with the topical skin care products she used, she was glowing.
Since Xia Xibei had such skills, Hongyan Beauty Club would definitely be better than before.
Because of Xia Xibei’s ability, she gave her 30% of the shares of Hongyan Beauty Club.
“Okay, let’s do that.”
After some discussions, the two of them decided on what to do.
On the side, Qiao Yanjue watched them talk, the corners of his mouth unconsciously wearing a smile.
In a selfish way, he would love to hide Xia Xibei from the world and not let anyone see how good she was.
But he wouldn’t do that.
The glow on Xia Xibei’s face when she talked about work was the biggest reason he was so enchanted by her.
