Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Shen Liangchuan was walking around the set with Song Cheng, in the hope of locating the investor for a chat.
When he heard that abrupt call for help, his pupils shrank at once.
That was… Xiao Qiao’s voice.
Immediately, he lengthened his strides and hurried towards the exit.
He arrived just in time to see Qiao Lian being shoved into a car. And the next moment, the car began to drive away.
In the urgency of that moment, Shen Liangchuan ran towards the departing car.
However, the car soon took off at a high speed and disappeared at the entrance of the filming location.
Without speaking or wasting another second, Shen Liangchuan opened the door of the filming crew’s vehicle and pushed the driver off his seat. He got in and immediately drove after the other car.
“Ah! Best Actor Shen, you—” the angry driver who had been pushed onto the ground yelled at the car.
Lu Nanze had his own personal chauffeur.
Lu Nanze had carried Qiao Lian into the car. As they got into the backseat, she was enveloped by his masculine breath, causing her to shake in fear.
She started to retreat into a corner of the backseat and reached out to open the car door.
But it was locked and it wouldn’t open, no matter how much she wrestled with it.
The only thing she could do was lie against the door and keep as much distance as possible between herself and Lu Nanze.
She bit her lip. “Second Brother—”
Lu Nanze sneered, “Who were you just calling?”
Who was she calling?
Immediately, she bit her lip.
His lips turned up slowly in a slight smile.
All these years, this had been the only visible warning sign of his anger.
That half-smile was too dangerous, too fake.
Qiao Lian gulped. “Second Brother, I—”
“Why are you calling me Second Brother again? Didn’t you just call me Lu Nanze?” He lunged forward with these words, almost pinning her entirely under his own body.
His face was now only a hair’s breadth away from hers.
His breath was hot against her face when he spoke.
Unable to tolerate it, Qiao Lian turned away.
But his large hand forced her head back in position. “Look at me.”
Qiao Lian was forced to stare straight into his alluring phoenix eyes. The smell of his breath was both familiar and strange at the same time. Her eyes reddened as she pleaded, “Second Brother, let me go.”
“Let you go? Why should I? Qiao Lian, you’re such a child. You ran away eight years ago and left without a word. Now tell me, where have you been all this time?”
Before Qiao Lian could speak, he smiled menacingly and added, “Tell me the truth and maybe, just maybe, I’ll let you go.”
Qiao Lian knew this man too well.
From a young age, he would make his own decisions without consulting anyone and people found him terrifying.
He would use all means to attain whatever he desired and would always get what he wanted in the end.
Just like eight years ago…
Qiao Lian cast her gaze down. “I took Qiao Yi overseas to study.”
“Where?”
Qiao Lian evaded his question and continued, “Things are good now, and Qiao Yi’s legs are recovering well.”
Lu Nanze paused and said with a hint of gladness in his voice, “That’s good then.”
Qiao Lian looked up at him again. “Second Brother, I just want to leave the past behind. I don’t wish to go back to the life I led before. Will you let me go, please?”
After her plea, Lu Nanze’s expression emanated an aura of danger as he replied, “Qiao Lian, you’re mine. What makes you think I’d let you go?”
After he said these words, he lowered his head and kissed Qiao Lian by force!
In her panic, she gathered all the strength she had. With an upward motion, she swung her head and smashed it viciously against his.
Getting hit triggered the man’s aggression, and he restrained her by locking her head down against the car seat. Just as he was about to lower his head again for another kiss, something crashed suddenly into the car as it pulled to a complete stop!
