Chapter 1183 - Goodbye, Second Brother (3) (1/2)

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.”
