Chapter 1145  : He Actually Likes Her This Much… (1)

Qiao Lian’s expression changed the moment she walked out of the office.

She looked ahead steadily and, after a moment, her expression softened.

Following this, she walked into the elevator and went down to the car.

By the time she arrived at the Lu family villa, she looked calm.

The housekeeper from the Lu family greeted her respectfully as she got out of the car.

Qiao Lian walked into the house with a broad smile, looking here and there.

The more she looked, the colder her expression became.

Because the entire villa looked completely different now from a few years ago.

In the past, the Lu family had ranked third or fourth among the great families and their villa had not been as grand as the Qiao family’s.

But now…

The Lu family villa had grown to occupy a large area of land, and many of the buildings within the estate were new. There were many facilities and there was even a big garden on the back.

All of this had appeared after tragedy struck the Qiao family.

The Lu family was making a lot of money every day, they lived in luxury and drove expensive cars, but what about the Qiao family?

After the tragedy, she and her brother had gone through extreme hardships.

Her expression was cold as she stepped into the living room. She saw Lu Nanze sitting on the sofa with a drip.

His eyes lit up when he saw Qiao Lian and immediately pointed at the seat opposite. “Take a seat.”

This was the original building of the Lu family villa. It hadn’t changed much from before.

Qiao Lian looked around as Lu Nanze spoke, “Is this place in any way familiar to you?”

Qiao Lian raised her eyebrows and nodded at once. “It’s a little familiar, it feels like I’ve been here before. But the gardens outside, why don’t they feel familiar at all?”

Lu Nanze explained, “Those were built later. But don’t you feel anything particularly familiar?”

Something familiar?

The interior of the house had not changed much?

What else was there?

Qiao Lian was mystified and frowned. Seeing this, disappointment came over Lu Nanze’s expression, but he very quickly looked optimistic again and said, “You told me once that you would like a river running through your garden. Did you see that little river in the garden when you came in?”

Qiao Lian was stumped for a moment.

Then she remembered. It seemed like she had said something like that a long time ago.

But that had only been her daydreaming.

She hadn’t thought that Lu Nanze would make that a reality in his own home.

Lu Nanze continued, “So, Qiao Lian, I’ve built our home. When do you intend to divorce that guy Shen and move in with me?

Qiao Lian: …!!!

She looked up at Lu Nanze in astonishment.

There was still a red rash on his face and neck, and his lips were still swollen.

But when he said this, he sounded extremely serious. There was a barely detectable grief underlying his words.

Qiao Lian fell silent.

She stood there steadily, not knowing what to say.

When was she going to divorce Shen Liangchuan?

That was impossible.

And it was even more impossible that she would move in with Lu Nanze.

At this thought, she opened her mouth to speak but Lu Nanze suddenly interrupted her with a laugh, saying, “I’m just teasing you. Look at how pale you’ve turned. Alright, did you bring the document?”

Qiao Lian snapped back to reality as his words reminded her why she was there. She quickly placed the document on the coffee table.

Then she got on her feet and got ready to leave. “Here’s the document. If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave now.”
