Wielding the large chopping knife in her hand, she was trembling.

She knew that the logical thing for her to do was to leave and let Lu Nanze stay.

Because these people would be wary of his status and wouldn’t dare cause him serious harm.

And because she was pregnant, she could easily suffer a miscarriage from any physical impact, if she returned.

But she couldn’t bring herself to leave him there alone, especially when he had stayed for her sake.

She wielded the chopping knife in one hand and stood trembling, as she confronted the men. It miraculously halted some of them.

The men looked at her in shock and the room fell silent at once.

She took a deep breath and eyed them cautiously, as she walked over to Lu Nanze.

The man panicked when he saw her. “Why are you back?”

Ignoring him, she continued to glare at the men and said, “All of you stay away!”

They froze as they continued to stare at her, stunned by this knife-wielding woman.

Qiao Lian told him, “Hurry, come with me!”

Lu Nanze frowned at once.

At this point, the man with the braid shouted, “Brothers, charge! This woman is too arrogant!”

Given this instruction, one of the henchmen took a step forward.

Qiao Lian quickly wielded the knife in retaliation, but her wrist went numb suddenly and the knife fell on the ground.

She immediately panicked, but looked at the men steadily. The next moment, Lu Nanze had yanked her and shoved her behind him.

She bit her lip and then, with her back against his, she said slowly, “Let’s get even!”

When he heard Qiao Lian’s suggestion, he nodded, narrowing his eyes at once.
