Chapter 76: Chapter 76 Why Does Everyone Stand Up for Nan Qiao?
Miss Nan Qiao had no intention of getting out of the car; she’d rather be far away from this family.
Seeing the trio with eyes red as if ready for a fight, Miss Nan Qiao still stopped the car.
Miss Nan Qiao’s indifferent demeanor incensed Liu Yanfang.
Liu Yanfang, “Do you have the nerve to ask me?
Why are you usurping Xiao Ya’s marriage?
Did you go in to find someone from the Li Family?”
Miss Nan Qiao frowned, “If you’re suffering from paranoia, you should seek treatment sooner rather than later.”
Zhou Jingya, “The marriage my grandfather arranged for me is with the Li Family!
Nan Qiao, dare you say you haven’t taken over my marriage?”
Zhou Hongqi, “I asked already, Grandpa Li rejected the marriage with Xiao Ya.
He even said his grandson, Li Yehan, already has someone he likes, declaring the past marriage arrangement null and void!”
Miss Nan Qiao scoffed lightly, “If I remember correctly, your father also told you before he died that the marriage arrangement was null and void, right?
It’s you who shamelessly insist on pursuing this marriage, isn’t it?”
The three Zhou family members didn’t look too pleased, as Miss Nan Qiao was indeed stating the facts.
Now their main concern was what Miss Nan Qiao was doing at the Li Family’s home and under what identity she went there!
Zhou Jingya teased, “Then what were you doing at Grandpa Li’s house?
Why would he meet with you if you weren’t using the identity of the Zhou family’s daughter?”
Liu Yanfang, “Xiao Ya is right, with your unsavory background, why would Elder Li agree to meet you?”
Zhou Hongqi coldly looked at Miss Nan Qiao, “Make it clear to Elder Li, our Xiao Ya is his future granddaughter-in-law!”
Miss Nan Qiao sat in the car, still not getting out.
“I’ll say it again, I did not have any contact with Elder Li using any identity of the Zhou family.
I met him because he fainted by the roadside, and I saved him!
Not everyone has intentions as dirty as yours!”
Miss Nan Qiao started the car, “Move!”
Liu Yanfang clung to the car window without letting go, staring intensely at Miss Nan Qiao with anger, “Nan Qiao!
I won’t let you hurt my Xiao Ya!
She’s so naive; she can’t outplay you!”
Miss Nan Qiao scoffed lightly, “I’m not interested in playing with her!”
Just then, a car drove up, and a tall, burly man got out from the driver’s seat, quickly pulling Liu Yanfang away from the window.
Zhou Jingya’s face paled, and the man dragged her aside.
He picked up Zhou Hongqi like picking up a chicken and threw him aside as well.
When Miss Nan Qiao saw someone getting out of the car, she froze.
Li Yehan, with his long legs, walked hurriedly over, leaned on Miss Nan Qiao’s car window, and showed a handsome face.
Moved by the concern, Miss Nan Qiao shook her head.
Li Yehan opened the passenger door and sat down, as if to protect Miss Nan Qiao.
“Why are you here?” Miss Nan Qiao asked in surprise.
Li Yehan replied leisurely, “I came back to get some documents.”
Miss Nan Qiao responded with a sigh, and Li Yehan urged her, “You drive, I’ll go to your company and we’ll discuss some finer details about the cooperation.”
Watching the three disheveled figures sitting by the roadside, Miss Nan Qiao pressed the gas pedal and drove away.
Zhou Hongqi watched Miss Nan Qiao drive off and wanted to stop her but didn’t dare to stand up—the towering hulk in front of him frightened him!
Zhou Hongqi spoke out, “What do you think you’re doing?
We live in a society governed by law!
Do you believe I won’t call the police to arrest you?”
Li Yehan’s driver scoffed lightly, “You think we should arrest you instead?
In broad daylight, you block Miss Nan Qiao’s car, and you ask who else we should arrest?”
What kind of status does Miss Nan Qiao hold that makes everyone refer to her as “Miss Nan Qiao”?
Liu Yanfang angrily questioned, “Who is she?
Just a foster daughter of mine, and you still call her Miss Nan Qiao?
Does she deserve it?”
Driver, “She definitely deserves it, unlike any of you!”
Zhou Jingya clenched her teeth in fury, unable to utter another word.
The driver warned with a stern look, “If you dare to trouble Miss Nan Qiao again, plenty of people will let you know how to speak to her going forward!”
The driver’s fierce look stunned the trio.
The security at the entrance of the gated community, seeing this, why aren’t they helping?
The driver answered their queries, “You dare bully Miss Nan Qiao and still expect them to help you?
The driver didn’t bother with more talk, went over to speak with the security for a moment and then walked away.
The security expelled the Zhou family, the reason being they were tarnishing the gated community’s image.
Liu Yanfang cursed under her breath, “Could all these men be Nan Qiao’s lovers?”
Zhou Jingya, “Could Nan Qiao have another identity?
Dad, did you ever investigate her background?
Could she be a rich second generation?”
Zhou Hongqi scoffed without a word, “What rich second generation!
If she were really rich, why didn’t a helicopter come to pick her up and take her home?
Didn’t you see the person who came to get her?
Riding on a broken tricycle, not even having a car, could that be a rich person?”
The family of three were forced to leave this place, murmuring curses as they walked.
Why weren’t they cursing loudly?
Because they didn’t dare.
They couldn’t afford to offend the security of the gated community, fearing that Grandpa Li would find out what they had done; they could only hurry away.
After returning to her company, Li Yehan followed Miss Nan Qiao upstairs but was stopped by her.
“If there’s something you need, I think it’s better we discuss it here.
If you go up to the office, it will definitely cause a stir.”
Li Yehan arched an eyebrow, sitting in the passenger seat looking at Miss Nan Qiao flustered expression, suddenly feeling the urge to laugh.
“What are you laughing at?”
Li Yehan responded, “I’m laughing at you, are you so afraid that people know I’m collaborating with you?
Is my collaboration not presentable, or am I not presentable?”
Miss Nan Qiao’s face turned red, she forced out an explanation, “Both are presentable, but I just want to avoid some unnecessary trouble.”
Li Yehan’s eyes deepened, “Am I the trouble?”
Miss Nan Qiao felt the distance between them closing slightly, making her all the more embarrassed.
“Li Yehan, I’ll go up first.
If there’s anything, we can just contact each other by phone,” Miss Nan Qiao said, unbuckling her seatbelt.
Li Yehan grabbed her hand, “Can’t we talk about it here?”
His large hand enveloped hers, and as Miss Nan Qiao tried to pull away, he gripped her hand tighter.
“My grandfather had already clarified with Zhou Hongqi to not come over again; the marriage was already annulled—it’s their family who couldn’t let go.”
Miss Nan Qiao was surprised, was Li Yehan explaining to her?
“This is your issue.” She didn’t need his explanation.
Li Yehan pulled her closer, his heated gaze and magnetic voice revealing a hint of grievance, “I clarified because I was afraid you wouldn’t feel secure.”
Just then, Li Yehan’s phone rang.
He glanced at the phone and chose to answer; Grandpa Li’s voice came through anxiously, “Ye Han, something has happened…”
