He spoke with much difficulty—it was obvious he was in great pain.

Lu Nanze narrowed his eyes and stared at him, asking, “You feel like I’m harassing her?”

Clenching his fists, Sun Linan replied, “Second Brother, you don’t consider this harassment?”

Staring at Lu Nanze with much wrath, he continued, “She is getting by happily now and that’s good enough. Second Brother, liking a person doesn’t mean owning her. It just means you’d be happy if she is.”

Lu Nanze’s pupils shrank as he sprang up from his seat. “I don’t need you to teach me what liking a person is about!”

As soon as these words came out, he raised and aimed his foot at Sun Linan’s chest to deliver a powerful kick.

Sun Linan staggered backwards when he received the blow and finally fell back on the ground.

The others sprang up reflexively with alarm, wanting to help him stand up, but they didn’t dare to make any movements as they looked at Lu Nanze.

Lu Nanze had been a vicious and cruel person from a young age. Back in the day, Qiao Lian had kept this streak of his under control when she had been around.

However, in the eight years that she had been missing, it was as though a beast had been unleashed within him. It awakened and gradually consumed him.

And along with the rapid ascent of the Lu Family, these people had grown to fear him.

As Qiao Lian stood at the threshold of the doorway, she heard the exchange.

Seeing that Lu Nanze was not going to stop beating Sun Linan, she clenched her fists tightly and hollered with anger, “Lu Nanze, you stop that right now!”

At the sound of her voice, Lu Nanze’s raised fist froze in mid-air as he spun his head around. Qiao Lian strode in.

The music in the private room was turned up, so no one had heard her opening the door.

When she appeared, Lu Nanze’s eyes narrowed and his pupils shrank.

The other two in the group heaved a sigh of relief.

Qiao Lian’s gaze swept through the room and fell on Sun Linan.

The guy’s face was completely bruised and swollen and he had injuries all over his body.

Obviously, Lu Nanze had not restrained himself.

She was now almost shaking with anger.

The initial fear and apprehension she had felt on her way here had faded, as her fury about the situation overtook her.

Quickly, she ran over to Sun Linan and helped him up, asking, “Sun Tzi, are you okay?”

Sun Linan tried to grin and put on a relaxed expression for Qiao Lian, but the moment he moved his mouth, it aggravated the pain and he drew in a sharp breath. Still, putting up a front, he said, “It’s no big deal, just superficial wounds. Second Brother and I are just fooling around.”

Fooling around…

He was just saying that so that she wouldn’t worry.

Ever since she had realized that Purple Fairy’s team had belonged to Sun Linan, Qiao Lian had been thoroughly annoyed at this fool, given all the problems he had caused her own team.

Since then too, Sun Linan had realized his mistake and stopped bothering her. But she had not expected that he would now offend Lu Nanze because of her.

Her eyes reddened at once, as she gritted her teeth and tried to hold him up by his arm. “Are you able to stand up?” she asked him.

“Of course, that’s not a problem!” Sun Linan tried and only barely made it. “Second Brother wouldn’t use too much force on me, don’t worry.”

If this wasn’t too much force… what was it then? Killing the man?

An evil anger welled up within Qiao Lian. She bit her lip and frowned before saying to Sun Linan, “I’ll take you to the hospital.”

He hesitated for a moment.

He dared not go because Second Brother had not given him permission to do so.
