She had been terrified when she was being abducted by Lu Nanze.
However, the more frightened she was, the more rational she became.
When Shen Liangchuan had caught up with them, she knew that he, alone and without backup, would not have been able to save her.
Besides, the car doors were all locked. If Lu Nanze had wanted to have his way, it wouldn’t have been beyond him to ignore Shen Liangchuan and make a clean escape.
Under those circumstances, she had had no choice but to deny any rtionship in order to protect Shen Liangchuan.
Simrly, Shen Liangchuan hadpromised to keep her safe in the meantime.
Later on, back at Lu Nanze’s vi.
When Lu Nanze had asked Qiao Lian if she was Shen Liangchuan’s woman, they would have nevere to this point if she had admitted it.
Given Lu Nanze’s personality, she knew that only if she acted terrified and unwilling to involve him, would he allow Shen Liangchuan in with the police officers. She knew that he would have wanted her to shame Shen Liangchuan.
It was because she understood his personality that she had yed along.
However, the moment Shen Liangchuan stepped into the vi, she knew too.
Whether she liked it or not, she had already gotten him involved.
And since this was the case...
Qiao Lian looked at Shen Liangchuan and their eyes met. In that moment, it was as though a silent conversation had taken ce.
The next moment, Qiao Lian lifted her gaze and said steadily, “Yes.”
Lu Nanze’s pupils shrank immediately with her response. He took a step towards her and demanded, “What did you say?”
His imposing manner caused Qiao Lian to jump. But quickly, she felt the hand around her waist tighten.
That hand was like the most invincible force in the world to her, so it charged her up with courage.
At once, Qiao Lian felt the indecisiveness and fear leave her as she found a sense of determination and refusal topromise. “I said I am Shen Liangchuan’s woman.”
“Lu Nanze, you and I have nothing to do with each other!”
At once, Lu Nanze’s eyes were aze with fury.
He gave a scornfulugh and said in a helpless tone, “Qiao Lian, stop fooling around ande over here. Come home with me.”
Qiao Lian instead leaned her body against Shen Liangchuan.
Her back was straight as a ruler.
Steadfastly, she stood by Shen Liangchuan.
Lu Nanze’s tone turned gloomy as he said again, “Qiao Lian, are youing over? You know what I can do.”
Then he nced at the two police officers.
Immediately, the officers moved to position themselves behind Shen Liangchuan and Qiao Lian.
One of them looked at Shen Liangchuan and said, “Best Actor Shen, we came over here to look into this matter for you. But you can’t just take someone away from Mr. Lu without any exnation or good reason!”
Take someone away from Mr. Lu.
Qiao Lian started to panic. “I have nothing to do with this man, don’t make false statements!”
Lu Nanze said unhurriedly, “Qiao Lian, how could we have nothing to do with each other? Up till the age of eighteen, you followed me around, everyone knows that!”
Qiao Lian clenched her jaw. “At that time, we were all sworn brothers! There were six of us!”
Lu Nanze raised an eyebrow. “Oh? So you do admit we have a rtionship?” Now his aggressive behavior was bing more obvious. “So if you are unable to show any proof of your rtionship, no one will leave this vi today.”
Positioning his body in such a way to shield Qiao Lian from Lu Nanze’s fierce and cruel expression, Shen Liangchuan said, “I never knew that Mr. Lu has a thing for other people’s wives.”
Lu Nanze froze for a moment when he heard these words.
He didn’t understand what she was saying.
But... other people’s wife?
His eyes swept over Qiao Lian and Shen Liangchuan and he frowned deeply. “What did you say?
Shen Liangchuan’s long and slender fingers reached into his pockets to grab their marriage certificate. Then he said with certainty, “She is my wife.”
