You Are My Unforgettable Love
chapter-1172

Once she saw the stick, she knew that if it came down on her, she would be in a bad situation.

But the pain in her belly didn’t allow her to stand up, she couldn’t even move.

She stared wide-eyed as the stick was about to come down on her body and, suddenly, she heard a shout, “Be careful!”

At once, Lu Nanze lunged towards her. All she heard was the stick falling with a crack on someone’s body.

She looked up in horror and saw that Lu Nanze had used his own body to shield her from the beating.

Widening her eyes in shock, she looked at Lu Nanze in disbelief. She hadn’t thought that this was a scene that she would ever witness.

Even though he had stayed for her sake, it was incomparable to how shaken she was feeling right now.

In that moment, it was as though she had forgotten the pain and the fear. She just stared steadily at Lu Nanze.

She could hear the man with the braid saying, “For f*cks sake, let’s beat this damned couple to death!”

Then more punches rained down.

Squatting on the floor, Qiao Lian covered her head as Lu Nanze protected her body.

She could hear the impact of the strikes on his body and tears started to streak down her face.

She remembered now.

When they were younger, they used to have fun and skip school together. They were arrogant and had done reckless things together.

Once, her teacher had called her parents to school.

When they got home, her mom had wanted to give her a beating. At that time, Lu Nanze had done exactly the same as what he was doing now. He had shielded her and taken the hit for her.

The fact was that they had been really, really close in their younger days.

But how had they come to this point now?

Qiao Lian cried her heart out and, as she cried, she called out to him, “Lu Nanze, get out of the way, let them hit me.”

“Lu Nanze, you don’t have to do this.”

“Lu Nanze, you…”

Then her cries got softer as her sorrow grew.

In this chaos, she finally heard a voice that was like the most wonderful sound of nature, “Stop!”

Her head snapped up at once and she saw, standing at the doorway, like a god from the heavens, Shen Liangchuan.

With his back to the light, he was already dashing over to them. After he saw clearly what the situation was, his pupils shrank and he raised his hand.

These men were already injured from the tussle with Qiao Lian and Lu Nanze earlier on.

Single-handedly, Shen Liangchuan yanked them out of the way and helped Qiao Lian up by her arm. He asked anxiously, “Are you ok?”

He had no idea how panic-stricken he looked at that moment.

He was frightened to death.

Ever since he had found out Qiao Lian had been abducted, right up to the moment he found his way to this place alone, he had been overcome by fear as all sorts of scenarios played out in his mind.

It was only when he saw the crying Qiao Lian and the bloody Lu Nanze in the flesh that he could finally relax.

But at the same time, the fear and anxiety that he had had now turned into boundless fury.

He spun around and glared at the men.

Meanwhile, Qiao Lian, now helped to her feet by Lu Nanze and standing, turned towards him and asked, “Lu Nanze, are you ok?”

When Lu Nanze saw Shen Liangchuan, his pupils shrank back. He picked himself up upon hearing Qiao Lian’s question.

Lowering his head, he spat a mouthful of blood on the floor.

Following this, Shen Liangchuan asked, “Can you make it still?”
