Chapter 1158: He Actually Likes Her This Much… (14)

Qiao Lian found a comfortable spot and sat on the sofa. She was eating her strawberries when she suddenly heard footsteps outside. Immediately after this, she heard the secretary sprang to her feet calling out, “Elder Mr Lu!”

Qiao Lian’s hand that was holding the strawberry froze in mid-air, as her eyes narrowed immediately.

Elder Mr Lu!.

Lu Nanze’s father!

He had actually come?

She clenched her fists tightly and sprang to her feet. After walking to the door, she took a look through the peephole.

Dad Lu was around 60 this year and in good health. He stood there, his sharp eyes sweeping through the office.

This was the Uncle Lu whom she had felt was a super nice man at that time. But in the end, he had smeared the Qiao family and caused the death of her parents, and the family to fall apart.

Qiao Lian’s chest was heaving as she found herself losing control. She had the strong urge to dash out and give him a vicious beating, make him pay for the loss of her parents.

But logic told her not to be rash.

Qiao Lian looked at him with hatred burning in her eyes.

After the secretary greeted him, he said in a dignified tone, “Where’s Lu Nanze?”

The secretary replied, “Mr. Lu is in a meeting.”

“Go and take a look. If the meeting is not important, ask him to come out here.”

The secretary glanced at Lu Nanze’s office, seemingly at a loss. She then lowered her head and said, “Yes.”

She left at once.

Dad Lu turned around and looked at the office. Following this, he pushed open the office door.

The room was empty, there was only a bowl of strawberries on the coffee table that was next to the sofa.

Dad Lu thought nothing of it as he walked to the sofa and took a seat.

In the room next to the office, Qiao Lian stood at the door, gasping to catch her breath.

Never would she have expected that they would meet under such circumstances.

After a while, she heard hasty footsteps coming from outside. It must be Lu Nanze, running all the way here.

He entered the office, sweeping his gaze around in the first instance. Then he frowned and looked at Dad Lu. “Dad, what are you doing here?”

“What am I doing here? You got the woman pregnant! I have to step in and settle this business, don’t I?”

At once, Lu Nanze frowned.

Dad Lu continued, “For so many years, I’ve been trying to force you to get married and have children, but you wouldn’t listen. And now you’ve done it. You’d better hurry up and marry Qiao Yiyi, that will solve all the problems! Our Lu Family would finally have successors.”

To this, Lu Nanze said at once, “I object.”

“Object? Is this something you are in a position to disagree with? Are you still hankering for that Qiao Lian? Let me tell you, despite the fact that she’s already married, even if she weren’t, given the relationship between you and her, do you really feel that she’d marry you?”

Lu Nanze fell silent.

Dad Lu sneered icily, “It’s been so many years, but you are still so innocent and naive!! Given the relationship between our families, you could never be with her.”

Lu Nanze narrowed his eyes at those words. “Dad, this is our business, you don’t need to interfere.”

“Interfere?” Dad Lu stood up and sighed. “Do you know why I have to step in suddenly? It’s because Qiao Zhigang came to look for me!”

Lu Nanze asked at once, “Why did he come round looking for you?”

“Why? Of course it was to remind me of the account book from that time!”
