She had been terrified when she was being abducted by Lu Nanze.
However, the more frightened she was, the more rational she became.
When Shen Liangchuan had caught up with them, she knew that he, alone and without backup, would not have been able to save her.
Besides, the car doors were all locked. If Lu Nanze had wanted to have his way, it wouldn't have been beyond him to ignore Shen Liangchuan and make a clean escape.
Under those circumstances, she had had no choice but to deny any relationship in order to protect Shen Liangchuan.
Similarly, Shen Liangchuan had compromised to keep her safe in the meantime.
Later on, back at Lu Nanze's villa.
When Lu Nanze had asked Qiao Lian if she was Shen Liangchuan's woman, they would have never come to this point if she had admitted it.
Given Lu Nanze's personality, she knew that only if she acted terrified and unwilling to involve him, would he allow Shen Liangchuan in with the police officers. She knew that he would have wanted her to shame Shen Liangchuan.
It was because she understood his personality that she had played along.
However, the moment Shen Liangchuan stepped into the villa, she knew too.
Whether she liked it or not, she had already gotten him involved.
And since this was the case…
Qiao Lian looked at Shen Liangchuan and their eyes met. In that moment, it was as though a silent conversation had taken place.
The next moment, Qiao Lian lifted her gaze and said steadily, ”Yes.”
Lu Nanze's pupils shrank immediately with her response. He took a step towards her and demanded, ”What did you say?”
His imposing manner caused Qiao Lian to jump. But quickly, she felt the hand around her waist tighten.
That hand was like the most invincible force in the world to her, so it charged her up with courage.
At once, Qiao Lian felt the indecisiveness and fear leave her as she found a sense of determination and refusal to compromise. ”I said I am Shen Liangchuan's woman.”
