Chapter 1184: Goodbye, Second Brother (4)
She understood that, when Second Brother said that she had to show some sincerity, this is what sincerity referred to.
Only when she handed over the account book to Dad Lu, everything would be resolved.
Qiao Yiyi was at once excited by this thought.
But she could have never imagined that this account book would eventually cause so much trouble in the end.
–
Qiao Lian returned to her own ward.
She stared blankly at the wall for a moment and then suddenly said to Shen Liangchuan, “I want to be discharged.”
Shen Liangchuan glanced at her and without hesitating said, “Alright, I’ll get someone to start the discharging procedure.”
Qiao Lian continued nodding.
After a moment, Qiao Lian suddenly said, “Shen Liangchuan, it’s also not so wrong that Lu Nanze chose to protect his father, is it?”
After all, if her own father did something wrong, she too would find it impossible to place righteousness before family, right?
She cast her gaze down but still, deep down in her heart, there was profound melancholy.
She understood Lu Nanze’s intentions.
Qiao Zhigang had hired people to abduct them, hence to avenge her, he wouldn’t let Qiao Zhigang get away easily. The best scenario for the man was probably a lifetime in jail.
However, being human also, Lu Nanze could not just send his own father to jail. Hence, to resolve the issue of the account book he could only marry Qiao Yiyi.
But how could this be ok?
Even if Lu Nanze had saved her, all that she owed him was her life.
There was no way she would compromise her parents’ innocence just like that.
She bit her lip. After a moment, she looked at Shen Liangchuan and said, “The account book is with Qiao Zhigang. What can we do now?”
Shen Liangchuan narrowed his eyes and replied, “Steal it, of course.”
Steal it.
Narrowing her eyes, Qiao Lian thought, “Lu Nanze, I hope you won’t hold this against me!!”
Shen Liangchuan spoke again, “I’ve arranged for people to steal the account book from Qiao Yiyi, but as you know, this is Suzhou.”
Not Beijing.
In this place, Lu Nanze was obviously more powerful than Shen Liangchuan.
If Shen Liangchuan could think of stealing the account book, then Lu Nanze could very well expect it. Hence it was likely that there were many people planted around Qiao Yiyi at this point.
Qiao Lian paused for a moment after she heard this and then asked, “What are the chances that you get your hands on it?”
“20 percent.”
Qiao Lian fell back on her wheelchair in disappointment.
As she contemplated this, Shen Liangchuan suddenly said, “But if my men fail at this, then the both of us can try it in the hospital.”
Qiao Lian’s pupils shrank back at once. “What do you mean?”
“What I mean is that once Qiao Yiyi gets her hands on the account book, she’ll come to the hospital for sure to give it to Lu Nanze.”
Qiao Lian’s eyes widened and lit up all at once.
Qiao Yiyi took a cab to the hospital, completely oblivious to the fact that a few fights had already taken place behind her.
The number of people that Lu Nanze had mobilized to protect her was five to six times more than Shen Liangchuan’s men.
Hence, Shen Liangchuan’s men were no match at all for Lu Nanze’s.
Thus Qiao Yiyi arrived at the hospital safely.
Standing at the entrance of the hospital, she stared at the building excitedly, thinking that once she handed the account book to Second Brother, their marriage would be ready to happen.
But…
She narrowed her eyes and called Dad Lu. “Uncle, I’ve got what you want, but shouldn’t you show your sincerity as well?”
Dad Lu immediately said, “Good, good niece. From now on, you have to live happily with Lu Nanze. I’ll go and announce the marriage!”
