Chapter 1720: She Is Actually Rather Adorable (10)
Qiao Yiyi froze the moment she heard Liang Liang’s voice. The taunting expression in her eyes became cold and distant.
She lowered her head and watched Liang Liang striding into the Lu family villa from the corner of her eye.
He was frowning deeply as he stared at the two people in the living room and asked, “What’s going on?”
Turning to Qiao Gang, he asked, “Who are you, behaving so atrociously in the Lu family residence? I won’t hesitate to take you to the police station and shut you in it for a few days!”
That remark frightened Qiao Gang and he immediately recoiled in fear. He looked at Liang Liang, who was in his police uniform, and quickly explained, “I’m Qiao Yiyi’s younger brother, I’m her brother! I- I’m here to visit her! I’m not behaving atrociously.”
Liang Liang sneered and said, “You didn’t behave atrociously? So I misheard you? You weren’t the one who said you were going to beat someone up till all her teeth fell out?”
Qiao Gang replied, “We’re siblings, we were just fooling around.”
Liang Liang smirked and said, “This is the first I’ve heard people fooling around like this Do you think I’m stupid?”
Qiao Gang was going to speak again when Liang Liang interrupted, “Why? Aren’t you leaving? Or are you waiting to get taken to the police station for a few days?”
Upon hearing these words, Qiao Gang looked as though he had realized something. He quickly looked at Qiao Yiyi and pointed a finger at her, saying, “Sister, just you wait, I’ll come back to look for you.”
He turned around and left.
After watching the young man almost wet his pants and run away in fear, Qiao Yiyi turned to look at Liang Liang.
She knew the man considerably well.
He had never liked interfering into other people’s business, especially other people’s family affairs. And when it came to matters that didn’t involve him, he would refrain from commenting all the more.
The fact that he had opened his mouth to help her was extremely puzzling.
Had this man changed somehow?
Or…
Qiao Yiyi lowered her gaze and smiled icily.
Or perhaps she had never really understood him.
For the sake of capturing her, he had pretended to fall in love with her. What would be the bottomline for someone who could do something like that?
She lowered her head at this thought. Liang Liang asked her, “Are you hurt?”
Qiao Yiyi shook her head. She didn’t feel like talking to him.
He continued, “Was that really your brother?”
She nodded.
“Your family is really- you’re quite pitiful.”
She kept silent.
He continued talking to himself, “But a person like that, you shouldn’t give him any leeway. No matter what, you’re now Madam Lu, so you have to behave like Madam Lu. You only need to hold your head up high and let Lu Nanze give you the support you need. Who wouldn’t you be able to deal with then?”
Qiao Yiyi: …
Since when had Liang Liang become like a naggy aunty?
She looked back at the man with a blank expression, as though she was at a loss.
He choked back his words upon seeing her expression, realizing that he had probably said too much.
It was odd that every time he saw Madam Lu, her pet.i.te frame would inevitably remind him of Traceless—he could not stop himself from being concerned for her. Especially just now, when he had seen her getting harra.s.sed. He had gotten so angry that he had intervened in someone else’s affair.
What was wrong with him?
He asked himself this question silently and frowned as he tried to suppress the strange emotions he was experiencing. Then he sighed and said, “I’m here to look for Lu Nanze. Is he home?”
