<h4>Chapter 1162: He Actually Likes Her This Much... (18)</h4>


    Hence, all eSports professional yers were admirable.


    After an afternoon of training, when Qiao Lian was packing up her belongings and getting ready to get off work, her cell phone rang.


    She picked up the call and heard Shen Liangchuan’s voice on the other end, “Shouldn’t you be leaving work?”


    “Right away! I’m going now.”


    Shen Liangchuan nodded and said, “Ok, I’m waiting downstairs.”


    Sheughed immediately and said, “Ok, I’ming down now.”


    After she hung up, she picked up her bag and walked out.


    Just as she stepped out of the office, she saw Lu Nanze standing outside. He looked at her.


    She raised an eyebrow and asked, “Why are you here?”


    “To take you home.”


    She grimaced and said, “No, there’s no need to! Shen Liangchuan is just outside waiting for me.”


    If Shen Liangchuan and Lu Nanze saw each other, who knew what sort of friction might ur again.


    Hence, it was better to keep them apart.


    Right now, she really had to protect her weak heart!


    But unfortunately, Lu Nanze acted as though he didn’t hear her and insisted, “I’ll take you.”


    Qiao Lian was taken aback.


    She cocked her head to the side and said, “Really, there’s no need. I—”


    “You are together with him every night and only spend a few quick hours with me during the day. Won’t you even please for once and let me take you home? Or could it be that you don’t like me?”


    Qiao Lian was taken aback.


    She grimaced again.


    The Lu Nanze that she had known all along had been a forceful man, she rarely saw this side of him.


    Still grimacing, she finally said, “But I’m off work now and I’m going home. Shen Liangchuan is waiting for me, don’t create a scene, ok?”


    Upon hearing this, his expression clouded over. As she stood there nervously, not knowing what to do next, he suddenly said, “Ok.”


    Just like that, he stepped aside.


    Qiao Lian was taken aback.


    She walked past him and headed towards the elevators.


    After taking two steps, she heard footsteps behind her. She turned around with uncertainty.


    Lu Nanze said, “I’m leaving too.”


    Without thinking too much about it, Qiao Lian continued walking towards the elevator.


    From afar, she saw that the elevator door was about to shut.


    Hastening her footsteps, she shouted, “Hold on!”


    She broke into a run and held the lift door open. Someone inside said, “Who’s that? Can’t she wait for the next one?”


    But as those words fell, they saw it was Qiao Lian and at once fell silent.


    Everyone in the lift suddenly became respectful and called out, “Mr. Lu!”


    Lu Nanze nodded as he stood outside the elevator. Then he said calmly, “Can you guys get into the next ride?”


    “No problem! No problem!”


    As they said this, all of them started getting out of the elevator.


    Qiao Lian was bbergasted.


    She grimaced as she walked into the elevator, and then she saw that Lu Nanze had followed her.


    She looked at the director’s private elevator on the other side and then gazed at him.


    The director’s private elevator was for Lu Nanze’s exclusive use. But now, he was actually squeezing in the public elevator with her?


    This man, Lu Nanze, was he mental?


    She pressed the button for the ground floor.


    The elevator made its way down slowly.


    When it arrived at the ground floor, Qiao Lian turned back and smiled at him saying, “Director Lu, I’m off.”


    But the next moment, Lu Nanze grabbed her wrist and yanked her into the elevator. He pressed the button to shut the elevator door.
