Chapter 1166: Their First Collaboration (2)

Following his next instructions, the punches and kicks rained down quicker and harder.

Qiao Lian furrowed her brow. She was hiding behind the crowd and wanted to step forward. But she saw Lu Nanze suddenly raise his head and shot her a look, immediately saying, “Don’t.”

Don’t.

Qiao Lian instantly froze.

When Lu Nanze had suddenly hit the man with the braid, she had thought that he was just being too rash.

The two of them had been kidnapped by eight or nine people. In a moment like this, even if they were verbally abused, there was no need to use physical force.

But she now suddenly realized Lu Nanze’s intention. Lu Nanze had meant…

The man with the braid had obviously wanted to take advantage of her.

And he had found a timely moment to hit the man, so that all the pressure would be directed on him.

For the moment she, Qiao Lian, would be safe.

He had used himself as bait to hold these people’s attention, only so that she would not suffer any outrageous acts.

Qiao Lian stared as Lu Nanze got beaten up, his head buried in his hands. Her eyes reddened at once.

He could have walked away from this, he could have left, but why had he stayed to protect her?

She looked at him in disbelief.

She had a lot of mixed feelings.

She had initially been determined to hate him but now, she wavered.

She gulped and took a step back in silence, shrinking into a corner so that she became as unnoticeable as possible.

She knew she was being selfish, but she had to do this.

Because he wanted to protect her child.

She mustn’t do anything rash.

But suddenly, her vision blurred as she broke out in tears.

The people were after her and for sure, they wouldn’t dare to beat Lu Nanze to death.

After all, he was the hegemon of Suzhou and if they killed him, there would be trouble.

But by the time they stopped, Lu Nanze had injuries all over his body.

Qiao Lian rushed over to him and helped him up, anxiously asking, “Are you ok?”

“No problem, didn’t even break a bone.”

Lu Nanze lifted his head after saying this and looked at the men. In a low voice, he then said to Qiao Lian, “These men are not simple, be careful. Follow me closely.”

With teary eyes, she nodded.

When the man with a braid saw how badly Lu Nanze had been beaten up, he was satisfied and called his men to tend to his own injuries. He no longer was in the mood to bother with Qiao Lian.

Qiao Lian had thus managed to get off lightly, but both Lu Nanze and she were pushed along into a little room and locked up together.

There was nothing in the room except for a pile of straw on the ground.

Qiao Lian walked over and patted down the straw. Then she helped Lu Nanze lie down on it.

After she took care of this quietly, she stared at the man and reached out to feel all of his body.

Lu Nanze’s pupils shrank and suddenly, he laughed. “What? Even when I’m injured, you won’t forget to take advantage of me?”

Qiao Lian’s movements froze when he said this. Glaring at him, she said, “Even when you’re injured, you won’t shut up!”

He immediately laughed aloud. “Your touch feels so good. Why don’t you touch me right here too?”

Qiao Lian looked at where he was pointing and turned a bright scarlet at once. “Damn! Lu Nanze, can’t you be a little more decent?”

The man continued laughing, but seeing that she had stopped checking him, he was quietly relieved.
