Chapter 1161  : He Actually Likes Her This Much… (17)

Qiao Lian nodded, as a quick flash lit her eyes. She waved at Lu Nanze and said, “In that case, I’ll go back downstairs. Are you alright?”

“I’m fine.”

“Ok, see you.”

After Qiao Lian left the office, Lu Nanze’s face turned gloomy as he grabbed the cell phone to call Qiao Yiyi.

Very quickly, she picked up the call.

She called out happily, “Second Brother!”

Lu Nanze’s expression darkened and he spoke, his demonic voice sounding like it rose from the depths of hell itself, “Qiao Yiyi, have you ignored all my warnings?”

Qiao Yiyi shuddered when she heard those words and bit her lip. She asked, “Second Brother, what do you mean?”

“What do I mean?” Lu Nanze laughed icily and continued, “I remember when I was young, Mom loved keeping cats and I hated them. But Mom made me keep a pet cat. Do you know what happened to that cat?”

Qiao Yiyi’s voice trembled.

Following this, Lu Nanze added, “The cat died.”

Qiao Yiyi froze and started, “Second Brother, you—”

“I think I don’t have to say much more. Sure, the account book is in your hands, but are you certain that you can turn it in to the police? Suzhou is my territory, don’t force me into doing nasty things!”

Upon hearing his words, Qiao Yiyi cried out in fear, “Second Brother, Second Brother!”

But the only response she got back was an engaged tone.

Qiao Yiyi stared at her cell phone in a daze.

Lu Nanze had always been a man of his word. His meaning was clear: if her father continued to pursue the matter, he would make sure that her whole family disappeared altogether.

This thought sent Qiao Yiyi shuddering involuntarily. She gulped and dashed out of the room, calling out, “Dad! Second Brother just called!”

In the study, Qiao Yiyi told her parents what had happened and then rubbed her eyes as she sobbed, trying to dry her tears.

“Dad, Mom, what do I do now? I’m pregnant, but he doesn’t acknowledge my baby. He has only that tr*mp in his heart! Dad, if he doesn’t agree, you know Second Brother’s way of dealing with things. Over the years, he has grown increasingly cruel, I’m afraid—”

“Afraid of what??” Qiao Zhigang sprang up from his seat. “We are here, there’s no need to fear! This matter is actually easy to solve.”

Qiao Yiyi’s eyes lit up as she raised her head and looked at the man. “How do we resolve it?”

Qiao Zhigang narrowed his eyes slowly and said, “Of course, we cut it at the roots. Weren’t you getting along very well previously? We’ll go back to that time then, a time when there was no Qiao Lian.”

As he said this, a vicious hint flashed across his eyes.

Qiao Lian was sitting back, leisurely eating some fruits and waiting for her livestream session to start. It would be a two-hour livestream.

In addition, PC team had moved into the office to play some matches with her.

She grimaced and coordinated with them rather absent-mindedly. However, as she interacted with their team members, she actually found out that people who played video games were really only holding onto a dream and their aspirations.

Although the team club gave them a salary, the fact was that there was an age limit for excelling in eSports.

After the age of 25, their career would be over. After all, as people age, their reflexes would not be as nimble.
