So she did like him and had feelings for him after all.

In that emotional moment, Lu Nanze placed his hands on Qiao Lian’s shoulders and said, “Qiao Lian, we were childhood sweethearts and grew up together. Everyone in Suzhou knows this. So why don’t you just agree to our relationship?”

After saying this, he made a move to take Qiao Lian into his embrace.

Qiao Lian’s pupils shrank back at once and was about to dodge him, when suddenly they heard a din outside. “Let me in, I want to see Second Brother. Second Brother, I’m Qiao Yiyi!”

Lu Nanze froze upon hearing this. He lowered his head and looked at Qiao Lian.

At once, she heaved a big sigh of relief inside, although she maintained a serious expression on her face.

After a moment, she smiled and pushed Lu Nanze away. With a serious expression, she said, “Don’t you think that you should explain to me who this woman is? The moment I regained consciousness, she told me she was your woman, that you are in love with each other. Lu Nanze, before you sort things out with Qiao Yiyi, I don’t think you have the right to say that you like me!”

She tossed the documents that needed his signature on his desk and said, “Once you’ve signed them, have someone send them down.”

After saying this in a commanding and overbearing tone, she turned away to leave.

She opened the door.

At once, she found herself looking into Qiao Yiyi’s eyes, who was now being held back by the bodyguard outside.

Both of them halted.

Qiao Yiyi bit her lip and stared at Qiao Lian as though she was an enemy.

They wouldn’t let her into the office, giving excuses and saying that Mr. Lu’s office was not a place for people to enter as they wished. But what about Qiao Lian?

She wouldn’t for a moment believe that Qiao Lian was there on official business.

She bit her lip forcefully and glared at Qiao Lian. She said through gritted teeth, “Qiao Lian, why are you here?!”

Qiao Lian’s pupils shrank at these words.

It wasn’t as though she wanted to be here. If it weren’t for the account book, did Qiao Yiyi think that she would want to be anywhere near here?

But of course, she could not say these things aloud right now.

Hence, she could only glance at the woman and say with an icy laugh, “Concerning your question, you should ask Mr. Lu himself.”

Tilting her chin up arrogantly, she brushed past Qiao Yiyi haughtily on her way out.

“Stop right there!”

Qiao Yiyi raised her voice with fury.

Qiao Lian turned around.

Qiao Yiyi looked her up and down with hostility and inquired, “Have you really lost your memory?”

Qiao Lian nodded.

Narrowing her eyes, Qiao Yiyi suddenly smiled and said, “Qiao Lian, you really don’t remember me? I’m your cousin! There’s no way I can lie about this!”

After speaking, she stared hard at Qiao Lian and said, “Then why do you treat me so coldly? Or is it because you actually haven’t lost your memory?”

Lu Nanze’s gaze immediately shifted to Qiao Lian. At once, his expression became guarded and cautious.

Qiao Lian started laughing as though Qiao Yiyi had made a big joke. “Why do I treat you coldly? But why should I treat you with enthusiasm? The way you glare at me, I can almost see the daggers. I’m not a masochist in a hurry to get harassed by you!”

Qiao Yiyi: …

Lu Nanze: …

“Besides, when I had just regained consciousness, you didn’t even bother to ask about my injury. Instead you were busy telling me about your relationship with Lu Nanze. Tsk tsk, is this what a cousin should be doing? I lost my memory, not my mind!”
