Qiao Lian sat in the car staring into blank space.
She knew Lu Nanze was a very meticulous person, so he would never leave any traces or clues behind.
Given that the one tying up loose ends would be her trusted junior assistant, who had been by her side for so long, Shen Liangchuan would surely not notice anything amiss.
So what was she going to do now?
And where was Lu Nanze taking her?
This question caused her to shudder involuntarily, as she slid both her hands over her own belly.
When she turned to look out of the window, she realized that the car was heading towards Suzhou.
Indeed.
Suzhou was his territory.
It was easy for him to operate in his own territory.
She took a deep breath and said, “So you’ve known for some time that I’ve come back to Suzhou?”
Lu Nanze nodded.
“And the eSports App belongs to your company?”
Lu Nanze replied, “That’s correct.”
Her heart sank.
She realized now that she had been lured right into the trap he had set up.
She thought about the first day she arrived in Suzhou, when Cheng Sizhe called her to talk to her about the female caster position.
At the time, she had thought it had just been luck, but looking back now…
She felt a chill come over her. “The first day I arrived in Suzhou, or even when I was planning to come back to Suzhou… Did you already know all that?”
Lu Nanze continued nodding.
Qiao Lian widened her eyes. “The person who was sending those express delivery packages to Shen Liangchuan in Beijing… It was you!”
Lu Nanze did not stop nodding.
Qiao Lian tightened her fists and asked, “How did you know Soul Fighter?”
But right after she asked this, she laughed at her own question. “How would you not know?”
Lu Nanze kept silent.
Qiao Lian continued, “Lu Nanze, do you know these things you do only serve to make me disgust you?”
The man frowned.
She did not bother to mince her words, “When you were young, you were pitiful, like a diseased dog! You had no friends and even your family did not care about you. I felt sorry for you and introduced you to my circle of friends. I thought that at the very least, you had a good heart. But I’ve come to discover that I was wrong!! You are a monster. Lu Nanze, you heartless beast!”
Lu Nanze listened without speaking and, right from the start, he did not say a word to defend himself.
He only looked at Qiao Lian intently and said after a pause, “I know you hate me now, but it’s ok, Qiao Lian. We have a lifetime together. I will show you where my heart is.”
Qiao Lian choked. Turning away from him, she looked out of the window.
After two hours, the car pulled up by a villa in Suzhou.
After they got out of the car, she saw Qiao Yiyi waiting for them outside the villa.
As they walked up towards her, Qiao Yiyi said to Lu Nanze submissively, “Second Brother, you’re back! We’re all prepared, you may proceed with the operation any time.”
Operation?
Qiao Lian’s pupils shrank back and at once, she turned in an attempt to run away.
But Lu Nanze grabbed her wrist suddenly, and she was powerless to retaliate.
With one swift motion, the man scooped her up in his arms and took her to a room in the villa.
In the room, various instruments had been laid out, ready for use.
Her pupils shrank back in horror as she saw the cold operating table. “Lu Nanze, let me go, what are you trying to do?”
Qiao Yiyi said, “Qiao Lian, don’t be anxious. You will just be sleeping. After sleeping, your child will be gone. You won’t feel a thing.”
Qiao Lian felt her hands and feet being held to the operating table. As hard as she tried, she was unable to escape.
She yelled loudly, “Lu Nanze, do not harm my child!!”
