You Are My Unforgettable Love
chapter-1322

Qiao Yiyi stood near the doorway, looking extremely reserved.

Qiao Lian paused in surprise when she saw the girl. As she was puzzling over who the girl might be, someone introduced her, “This is Lu Nanze’s wife, Qiao Yiyi.”

A sudden look of realization crossed her face.

She quickly got onto her feet, walked over to Qiao Yiyi and asked, “Why are you here? Do you want to take a seat?”

Qiao Yiyi stared at Qiao Lian for some time and then suddenly hung her head, saying, “No, no, I- I just came to see you.”

Qiao Lian smiled in a very friendly manner and said, “You’re here to see me? So now you’ve seen me!”

The girl nodded and squeezed the pendant in her hand tightly. Nodding again, she said, “Yes, indeed.”

Qiao Lian looked at her in silence and, after a while, asked, “And is there something you wish to say to me?”

Qiao Yiyi looked back at her and then shifted her gaze over to Xia Nuannuan, Shi Nianyao and the rest who were behind her. The girl said, “No, I’m just here to see you. I’ll… go then.”

Qiao Lian was mystified, but nodded.

Qiao Yiyi slowly made her way back out.

Then she turned around and looked at Qiao Lian again.

Qiao Lian was still looking at her with a serious expression on her face.

Qiao Yiyi smiled shyly at her and walked away.

When she left the lounge, Qiao Yiyi immediately lowered her gaze and tried to hide the mixed emotions in her eyes, before she continued her way.

She hadn’t gone far when she suddenly heard someone in front saying, “What sort of background does this Qiao Lian have? To have Mr. Lu give her such a wedding gift and to be marrying Best Actor Shen.”

“Who knows? I think she’s a vixen.”

Qiao Yiyi lowered her head and walked past these people, acting as though she had not heard a thing.

Except that after she had walked some distance, she halted and turned back to look in the direction of the lounge.

She clearly understood the situation. Lu Nanze was obviously the one pestering Qiao Lian to no end. What had Qiao Lian got to do with it?

She looked down at the pendant in her hand. Then she turned back, clutching the object tightly in her palm. She quickened her pace as she walked back to Lu Nanze.

When Lu Nanze saw that she had returned, he tried to look nonchalant as he asked, “How was it?”

Qiao Yiyi passed the pendant back to him with her head lowered.

Lu Nanze was stunned and looked up. “Why? She didn’t accept it?”

Qiao Yiyi nodded.

He frowned and said, “You can’t even carry out a simple task as instructed!”

She continued to look down without saying a word, seeming extremely inarticulate.

Seeing that getting mad at her or berating her wasn’t going to get him anywhere, he had no option but to seethe inside.

But he was also relieved, on the other hand.

From the start, he had wanted an obedient wife. Hence her dullness did fit his idea.

Lu Nanze lowered his head at this thought, trying to hide the discomfort he was feeling.

The fact was he knew what he was doing was wrong.

Obviously the couple had made up, so he was only making unwanted advances and creating trouble.

He had even thought that if Shen Liangchuan saw this pendant, he would surely feel some unhappiness. Lu Nanze would be happy with just creating tension between the couple.

But as he looked at the pendant and thought about the fact that Qiao Lian had rejected it, he suddenly regretted his actions.

If only he hadn’t tried to give her a gift.

Now he was quite sure that Qiao Lian could see what he was up to, that she thought less of him for it.
