<h4>Chapter 1155: He Actually Likes Her This Much... (11)</h4>


    He had denied that the child was his right in Qiao Yiyi’s face. How was Qiao Yiyi going to take this?


    As the thought shed through her mind, she heard Qiao Yiyi cry out, “Second Brother!”


    When he gazed indifferently at her, she instantly fell silent.


    Lu Nanze lowered his head to look at Qiao Lian at once and tried to convince her, “Look, I have so much trust in you, don’t you think you should trust me too? I’m really not lying to you. The child is not mine.”


    He said this with too much sincerity. There was nothing but honesty in his eyes and, if it weren’t for the fact that she knew about their rtionship, Qiao Lian would have fallen right for it.


    She widened her eyes, stared at Lu Nanze and couldn’t help but wonder what was different about him from before.


    The Lu Nanze in the past had never been this shameless.


    Qiao Lian stared at Lu Nanze with wide eyes. After a while, she turned and nced at Qiao Yiyi.


    Right now, Qiao Yiyi was in a state ofplete disbelief.


    Written all over her face, there was a hurt expression that refused to believe she was being treated like.


    But when she opened her mouth, no words came. She could only take in huge gulps of air as her chest heaved noticeably.


    Qiao Lian narrowed her eyes again, trying to further ignite the situation. “But she said—”


    “You must understand what sort of person she is. She can use you of stealing because of her jealousy. Qiao Lian, you have to trust me, my feelings for you are real. This child is honestly not mine! How could I allow another woman to carry my child?”


    Qiao Lian was too amazed.


    This man in front of her looked exactly like he was speaking the truth.


    She could almost believe him.


    She grimaced and then finally said, “Ok, it’s good if it’s not yours.”


    As she said this, she almost couldn’t help feeling sorry for Qiao Yiyi.


    This man, Lu Nanze, had a heart of stone. If he didn’t like someone, that was that, and so what if Qiao Yiyi had tried for eight years to get his attention?


    He had now tossed her aside just like that, so bereft of human emotions.


    Even though she knew that this was the time for her to continue sowing discord between them, Qiao Lian could not bring herself to do this when she looked at Qiao Yiyi.


    Instead, she shut her eyes momentarily and said, “Well, I’ve had lunch. Is there anything else? If not, I’m going back to work.”


    “Go then.”


    Lu Nanze nodded.


    Qiao Lian walked out of the office and turned back to nce at Qiao Yiyi in the process.


    After she left, the tenderness in Lu Nanze immediately vanished.


    He turned around, disying only a sharp and cold glint in his eyes.


    A wave of guilt suddenly washed over Qiao Yiyi as she lowered her head.


    Lu Nanze said calmly, “Have you forgotten what I told you the day I freed you from being locked up?”


    Her pupils shrank at once.


    How could she forget?


    That had almost been the most shameful moment of her entire life.


    When she was freed, she wholeheartedly thought that Lu Nanze wouldfort her, but who would’ve thought that when they finally met, Lu Nanze’s first words would be, “I would not like Qiao Lian to know about the existence of this child.”


    It drove her mad with envy.


    What was so great about Qiao Lian? And what had she done to deserve all of Second Brother’s love?
