Chapter 693 - The Scammer’s Daughter! (2) (2/2)
At the time, she didn’t even have the money for her brother’s medical bills, where was she going to get the money to compensate the people?
She knew too that they were innocent victims.
But why did they have to force her? Would they be appeased only when she and her brother died along with their parents?
She stared at the tomato juice stain in a daze.
At this point, she felt someone yank her arm. At once, she was leaning against someone’s broad chest.
She froze for a moment before looking up with a frightened expression. Shen Liangchuan had slid a hand around her shoulders, drawing her into his embrace, and with a turn, he had used his back to protect her from all the flying projectiles that were being hurled at her now.
Slowly, her blurred vision focused and zoomed in on the man before her.
Suddenly, she felt a dull ache in her heart.

It was only then they saw that his face was covered in blood.
Suddenly, a silence fell over the crowd.
Qiao Lian stared at Shen Liangchuan and threw herself on him, shouting her lungs out, “Shen! Liang! Chuan!!”
