Chapter 1183: Goodbye, Second Brother (3)

Qiao Lian fixed her gaze intently on Qiao Yiyi until the woman finally turned and walked away.

The men in the ward could hear what Qiao Yiyi had just said outside of the room.

Lu Nanze was obviously shaken as he lifted his head and saw Qiao Lian.

But Qiao Lian’s face was expressionless as their eyes met.

He pursed his lips, knowing that she must have overheard what he had said to Qiao Yiyi. He winced and opened his mouth to say something, but eventually no words came.

Qiao Lian turned and walked away.

After she left, Lu Nanze stood there and stared at the empty doorway. There was a pained look in his eyes as a wave of sorrow washed over him. His chest tightened in deepening agony as though a part of his heart had been sliced away with a knife. In that moment, even death would have been easier.

–

Qiao Yiyi left the hospital and headed for the police station.

After locating the right people and pulling the right strings, she was finally given a chance to see Qiao Zhigang, who was now locked away.

He looked at her intently and said, “Yiyi, what did that scumbag Lu Nanze have to say?”

With a broad smile on her face, Qiao Yiyi said, “Dad, Second Brother says he’s going to marry me!”

Qiao Zhigang’s eyes lit up with hope as he asked, “When are they going to release me?”

Biting her lip, Qiao Yiyi replied, “Dad, I may have to trouble you for a while longer. Second Brother doesn’t want you to leave here just yet, because as you also know, Qiao Lian has got Shen Liangchuan backing her. He’s not only a Best Actor, he’s also the Shen family enterprise’s successor. Right now, it’s Qiao Lian who doesn’t want to let this matter rest. So now we’re still stuck.”

Qiao Zhigang frowned, feeling dispirited. After a pause, he said, “So what- what do we do now?”

Sighing, Qiao Yiyi said, “Dad, the punishment for instigating harm isn’t all that heavy actually. I’ll find you the best lawyer, let’s prepare to fight the case.”

Qiao Zhigang narrowed his eyes and asked, “Yiyi, have you been tricked? Do you mean Lu Nanze can’t resolve a small matter like this?”

“Dad, Second Brother has agreed to marry me, and we’re even starting to prepare for the wedding. How can this be fake?!”

Qiao Zhigang frowned upon hearing those words and he said, “No, I still feel there’s something off about this whole situation.”

Qiao Yiyi bit her lip and lowered her voice, saying, “Dad, the truth is that Dad Lu is terribly worried about the account book, so he’s forcing Second Brother to marry me. Even if Second Brother treats you and me like dirt, he wouldn’t treat his own father like that.”

Still frowning, Qiao Zhigang said after a silent pause, “Fine! If I can exchange being in jail for a few years for your lifelong happiness, it’s worth it!!”

At once, Qiao Yiyi looked at her father and asked, “In this case, Dad, where’s the account book? I’m about to get married, and you know Second Brother’s temperament well. You should know that I need some sort of leverage to be able to control him.”

Qiao Zhigang thought for a while and then said, “The account book is kept...”

–

Upon leaving the police station, Qiao Yiyi hurried home. Once she arrived at home, she went into Qiao Zhigang’s study and very quickly located the account book in a well-hidden location.

The account book was tattered and torn but all these years, she had depended on it to meet Second Brother.

And now, she would have to depend on it again to marry Second Brother. This account book had simply been her lucky star.

At this thought, Qiao Yiyi stashed the account book into her bag and ran out of the house again.
