Chapter 1070: Two Men Vying For A Lady (2)
Narrowing his eyes, Lu Nanze nodded and said, “Yes, that is correct. We are in love with each other and you’re even carrying our child now. You’re getting a divorce for me.”
This threw Qiao Lian into a conundrum.
She bit her lip and stared at Lu Nanze. After a moment, she sighed deeply.
Lu Nanze asked, “What’s wrong?”
Qiao Lian replied, “I must have been a real idiot before I lost my memory. Or I was a mental case.”
Lu Nanze was taken aback.
Qiao Lian continued, “I didn’t like this dashingly handsome man and, instead, had an affair with you! Tell me, am I nuts or what?”
Lu Nanze: …!!
He narrowed his eyes and looked at Qiao Lian with a gloomy expression.
He was livid.
What did she mean by that?
Was she implying that he, Lu Nanze, paled in comparison to a pretty boy?!
He was about to say this aloud when Qiao Lian spoke, “Why would I ignore the wealthy gentleman at home and, instead, like a pretty boy like you?”
Lu Nanze was speechless. Who was the pretty boy?!
His expression froze but, before he could even get a word in, Qiao Lian looked at him and continued her interrogation, “Does he know about us?”
Lu Nanze was choking with fury inside now and his expression was extremely gloomy. However on the other hand, his smile widened, a sure sign that his anger was rising.
In the past, whenever he had this expression on his face, Qiao Lian would leave as soon as possible.
But with that pale little face and a bandage around her head, looking as pitiful as she could be, and with that image of her breaking the drip bottle with her head replaying in his mind, he found himself completely unable to lash out at her.
Qiao Lian, on the other hand, glanced back anxiously, worried that Shen Liangchuan might come out any time and overhear their conversation.
She was completely oblivious to his emotions.
Lu Nanze could only feel exasperation welling up within himself.
He took a deep breath and said, “Of course he—”
Qiao Lian’s head spun around, looked at him before he could finish and interrupted, “Surely he doesn’t know. If he does, then I might as well come clean.”
Come clean?
How was she going to do that?
Tell him she was pregnant?
Then Shen Liangchuan would certainly easily know just by a quick calculation whose child it was.
Lu Nanze narrowed his eyes and lowered his head. “That’s right, he doesn’t know.”
Qiao Lian sighed in relief and said, “That’s great, that’s great!”
Lu Nanze scowled.
He grabbed her hand and continued, “Qiao Lian, we love each other. Divorce him and come to me. Wouldn’t that be good? Wasn’t that what you wanted to do before?”
Qiao Lian looked troubled at these words. Turning to look at Lu Nanze, she bit her lip and said after a moment, “But what about Qiao Yiyi?”
“Qiao Yiyi.”
“That’s right. Didn’t she say she’s carrying your child?” Qiao Lian sighed and continued, “Since there’s someone else that you like, let’s forget about us. As for this child…”
Qiao Lian furrowed her brow.
But what she had just said stunned Lu Nanze.
“She’s carrying my child?”
“Indeed. Qiao Yiyi told me herself. Of course it’s real! Look, Qiao Yiyi is unmarried and she’s a good match for you. Besides, although I can’t remember you, every time I see you I feel uneasy. It feels like you’re a bad guy.”
Lu Nanze was speechless.
As though she had not realized the odd expression on Lu Nanze’s face, she continued talking.
