Chapter 1167: Their First Collaboration (3)
Qiao Lian sat down in a corner and hugged her knees . She looked outside and said to Lu Nanze, “Why didn’t you leave?”
Lu Nanze narrowed his eyes and said after a pause, “How can I leave when you’re here?”
He had said that like a matter of course . Qiao Lian was taken aback .
She had always thought that Lu Nanze treated her like a thing that he didn’t own yet, something he desired to possess, just a toy . But now…
She stared straight ahead and bit her lip . After a silent pause she said again, “You are aware that by not leaving then, it’s possible that the both of us will end up not being able to leave . ”
“If it comes to the worst we die here . ”
Qiao Lian fell silent at once .
He had said it with such ease, as though he wasn’t even thinking about what he was saying .
She pursed her lips .
At once, the room fell silent .
Qiao Lian could hear Lu Nanze’s breathing, which sounded labored . It must be painful . But he wasn’t showing it at all .
She turned to look at him . His eyes were lit up even in the dark . He suddenly laughed and said, “Qiao Lian, this must be the first time we’re spending the night together?”
Qiao Lian chided him, “Can you be more decent?”
“Fine, I’ll be decent . ”
He continued, “Don’t be scared . If I don’t go home, they’ll send people to look for me . Besides, your man will look for you too . There are surveillance cameras in the underground parking lot, they’ll find out soon enough what happened . ”
Qiao Lian nodded and then suddenly asked, “Are you scared?”
“You?”

She thought for a moment and then nodded .
Lu Nanze contemplated this in silence for a moment as he looked at her . Then he asked, “You didn’t used to be scared, why are you scared now?”
Qiao Lian lowered her head and looked at her stomach . “Because I’m no longer alone . Do you know? I love this child, I hope to deliver it safely, and hope that it will grow up happily and live happily . ”
When she said this, there was a tenderness in her expression and a sense of peace around her .
As he looked at her, the light from outside framing her silhouette, he suddenly felt tranquility washing over the passage of time .
He narrowed his eyes as his gaze fell on her abdomen .
After a pause, he said, “Do you remember when we were fifteen?”
Qiao Lian froze at those words . She turned towards him with a blank stare .

He lowered his head and said, “That year, I had a fight with Dad and wanted to run away from home . I was determined . But I came to bid farewell to you . ”
As he spoke, scenes of that past flashed through her mind .
At the time, no matter what she said, he wouldn’t listen .
He had made up his mind to run away .
In the end, she also packed her belongings . Strapping her bag on her back, she was ready to go with him .
He had asked her then, “What do you think you’re doing?”
Qiao Lian had rolled her eyes and looked at him like he was a fool . “Of course, I’m running away with you . If you ran away alone, what would you do if you ran into trouble?”
After she said this, she had straightened herself up and walked in front of him .
