Chapter 409 She actually dared to burn down his little house
Nan Wan bit down hard, and Lu Qinglin's lip broke. He groaned, and a glaring red stain seeped from his lower lip.
"Smack."
She slapped him hard across the face.
"Lu Qinglin, have you gone mad?"
"How long has it been since my surgery? How dare you touch me?"
Her eyes welled up with tears, and her words were filled with resentment and grievance.
Lu Qinglin's face was slapped to the side, but he wasn't angry at all, which was quite different from his usual domineering self.
"I'm not that beastly, I just want to kiss you."
He gently stroked her head, his voice so tender it could melt hearts.
"I've hired the best nutritionist to help you get in shape. From now on, you'll be living here."
He looked at her intently, wanting to kiss her again, but Nan Wan stubbornly turned her head away.
His warm, large hand suddenly covered her lower abdomen, startling her.
"I'm sorry, Nan Wan."
"I caused you unnecessary harm."
His fingertips gently caressed her flat stomach through the thin fabric, conveying a sense of tenderness.
"Shall we start over?"
His deep voice lingered in her ear.
“Every plant and every brick here was designed by my own hands. I want to give you a fresh start, a home that belongs only to us.”
"Nanwan, we've missed too many years, I don't want to wander alone anymore."
His words carried a seductive power.
Nan Wan's heart softened uncontrollably.
She lowered her eyelashes, her long lashes concealing the complex emotions in her eyes.
"I want to eat chestnut cake."
She said in a low voice.
Lu Qinglin knew that the chestnut cake made by the "Sweet Encounter" restaurant in the south of the city was the best.
That was her favorite.
In the past, he would drive across most of the city just to buy her a cake she had been longing for.
Lu Qinglin's heart skipped a beat, and a gentle ripple appeared in his eyes.
"wait for me."
He leaned down and placed a gentle kiss on her forehead.
"I'm going to buy it. Be a good girl and wait for me to come back."
Nan Wan didn't dodge; she simply nodded.
He couldn't hide the joy in his eyes and strode out.
The door was closed.
Nan Wan raised her hand and wiped away the moisture from the corner of her eye, her eyes instantly regaining their coldness.
She walked out of the small building.
Looking up, she saw the beautiful roses blooming in full glory on the building. In the garden, bunches and clusters of them were her favorites.
It must be said that when she saw this small building just now, she was indeed pleasantly surprised and moved.
However, she wouldn't forgive him so easily.
If it weren't for his impulsive departure back then.
The Tang family will not be destroyed.
Some sins are not so easily forgiven.
...
Lu Qinglin carried the exquisitely packaged cake box with light steps.
Just as he was about to pass through the alley, he suddenly saw a thick plume of black smoke floating in the sky not far away.
The surrounding roadside was crowded with people, who were discussing the matter.
His heart sank inexplicably, and he quickened his pace.
When he emerged from the alley, the scene before him filled him with rage and heartache.
His little house, the rose-covered house he built for her, is now engulfed in flames.
The raging flames devoured the delicate flowers and exquisite buildings.
Not far away, the sirens of fire trucks grew louder as they approached, their sharp alarms jolting his nerves.
He loosened his grip.
"Smack."
The cake in her hand fell to the ground and was smashed beyond recognition.
"Quick, save them! There are still people inside, lying there!"
An older woman pointed in the direction of the garden and cried out in alarm.
Lu Qinglin suddenly rushed into the garden.
He immediately spotted the two bodyguards lying unconscious in the flowerbed, their bodies bearing burn marks.
Lu Qinglin rushed over and shook one of them forcefully.
"Wake up! Wake up!"
The bodyguard coughed a few times and weakly opened his eyes.
"Mr. Lu...Mr. Lu..."
"What happened? Who did this?" Lu Qinglin roared, his eyes bloodshot.
The bodyguard's face was filled with pain and fear. With his last bit of strength, he managed to utter a few words.
"It's...it's Miss Nan..."
Lu Qinglin clenched his fists instantly, his knuckles turning white from the extreme force, emitting a terrifying cracking sound.
In those deep eyes, tenderness and love were instantly burned away, leaving only boundless hatred. Blood vessels spread wildly from the depths of his eyes, and his entire being exuded an aura of destruction.
He took out his phone and dialed a number.
"Take men to the hotel immediately and take Tang Ling into custody. No one is allowed to approach her without my permission."
This time, he was truly enraged.
She dared to burn down his house! That vicious woman!
...
When Nan woke up, she was in a speeding car.
A sharp, tingling pain shot through my right shoulder.
She was kidnapped?
Disorganized fragments of memory are being pieced together in my mind.
As she prepared to leave that small building.
Two bodyguards stopped her; she knew they were Lu Qinglin's men.
Without wasting words, she attacked directly, and the two fell to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, five more people rushed out of the building.
They were all tall and burly, and their moves were ruthless, completely unlike the more reserved style of Lu Qinglin's men.
But Nanwan doesn't take these five people seriously.
She remained calm and composed, weaving between the men, and none of the burly men managed to gain the slightest advantage over her.
Sudden.
A man, in a fit of rage, grabbed her tightly from behind.
Before she could break free, her right shoulder went numb, and her consciousness plunged into darkness.
She struggled to lift her eyelids.
The car was dimly lit.
She was thrown into the back seat, her hands tied behind her back and bound tightly.
Nan Wan shifted her body and noticed two men beside her, who were eyeing her like she was a piece of merchandise.
She closed her eyes, pretending she was still asleep.
Seeing that she didn't move, one of the men became bolder and reached out to touch her face.
Now!
Nan Wan suddenly opened her eyes, her gaze frighteningly fierce.
She arched her body upwards, curled her legs up, and kicked the man next to her in the jaw with all her might.
With a crisp "crack".
The man didn't even utter a sound before his head lolled to the side and he fainted.
The other man was stunned by the sudden turn of events, then burst into curses and threw a punch.
While skillfully dodging the punch, Nan Wan used her bound hands as a hammer to smash the other man's temple.
The man's vision went black, and he went limp.
The driver in front saw this in his rearview mirror and was terrified. He yelled something and jerked the steering wheel wildly.
Nan Wan pounced on him, reaching her arm through the gap in the seat and tightly strangling the driver's neck with her elbow.
"parking!"
The driver was having difficulty breathing, his face turned red, and he fumbled around at his sides, grabbed a dagger, and stabbed backwards without thinking.
Nan Wan felt a chill on her arm, followed by a sharp pain, but she did not loosen her grip at all.
The car went completely out of control, tracing a deadly arc on the road before crashing into the roadside guardrail and overturning.
The world spun around.
Nan Wan's head slammed hard against the car window, the force of which nearly made her faint.
She didn't know how much time had passed before she finally crawled out of the deformed carriage.
The driver had already passed out in the driver's seat.
She had just steadied herself when a sudden, sharp pain shot through her abdomen, causing her legs to buckle and her to kneel on one knee.
My back was instantly soaked with cold sweat.
Nanwan borrowed a passerby's phone to call bodyguard Yang Yi.
No one answered the phone.
She then called her aunt.
It was still the same cold, busy tone.
Her heart sank, and she hailed a taxi to go back to the hotel first.
After changing out of her blood-stained and dusty clothes, she rummaged through the depths of her suitcase and pulled out a medicine bottle, shook out two pills, and swallowed them.
That was a pregnancy-preserving medication that the doctor had specially prepared for her before she left.
After doing all this, she went straight to Tiannan Group.
Finally, they found Lu Qinglin in the magnificent lobby of a top-tier club.
Four business tycoons surrounded him with utmost respect.
He sat on the huge sofa in the very center, his legs crossed, his posture languid, yet he exuded an air of authority.
He was wearing a black shirt today, with the top two buttons undone, revealing glimpses of his muscular chest.
A hot, beautiful woman was sitting next to him, holding a wine glass and feeding him wine in a flirtatious manner.
The moment Nan Wan pushed open the door, she saw this glaring scene.
Her eyes narrowed suddenly.
Almost simultaneously, Lu Qinglin also saw her, his deep eyes fixed on her, filled with surging anger.
She dares to come again?
Nan Wan ignored his murderous glare and spoke, her voice slightly hoarse.
Where is my aunt?
Lu Qinglin's lips curled into a cold smile, and he waved his hand lightly.
Six bodyguards in black emerged from behind the screen, forming a wall that blocked Nan Wan's path.
Lu Qinglin spoke slowly and deliberately, his voice devoid of any warmth.
"Didn't you used to love playing this kind of game?"
"Beat them, then talk to me."
"Lu Qinglin, are you insane!" Nan Wan trembled with rage. "Give me back my aunt!"
The hatred in Lu Qinglin's eyes almost burned through her.
They burned down his meticulously designed little building, packed their bags and left. Now they dare to come to his territory and challenge him?
This woman is absolutely despicable.
He waved his hand again.
Six bodyguards immediately stepped forward and surrounded Nan Wan.
"Lu Qinglin, tell your men to get out of the way!" Nan Wan shouted sternly.
Lu Qinglin took a sip of the wine the beautiful woman fed him, but his eyes grew increasingly cold.
"You're so good at fighting, aren't you? Perfect, let's show all the bosses what we're made of today."
He looked at the bodyguards, his tone light, yet carrying an unquestionable command.
"Play with her, and whoever can capture her will be rewarded with a million."
As soon as he finished speaking, the six bodyguards moved at the same time.
Nan Wan was indeed exhausted. She hadn't eaten or drunk anything since morning, and her physical strength was greatly depleted.
But the fighting spirit in her eyes did not diminish in the slightest.
She dodged a sweeping leg kick to the side, and her elbow slammed into another person's ribs.
Fists and kicks clashed in the luxurious hall.
Nan Wan's movements were still nimble, but she was injured, hungry, and pregnant, making it difficult for her to cope.
In the chaos, someone punched her in the injured arm.
"Hmm..."
She groaned and staggered two steps. The wound that had been cut open in the car reopened completely, and a wave of intense pain washed over her.
But she just gritted her teeth, spun around, and kicked the bodyguard who had injured her to the ground.
A few minutes later.
All six highly skilled bodyguards lay on the ground.
The business owners present were all stunned, their mouths agape, wide enough to fit an egg.
This seemingly slender beauty has an off-the-charts fighting ability!
The hall was silent.
Nan Wan stood amidst the chaos, her forehead covered in fine beads of sweat, her chest heaving violently.
She raised her eyes and looked coldly at the man on the sofa.
"Lu Qinglin".
Her voice wasn't loud, but every word was clear.
"If you don't bring my aunt back safe and sound by tomorrow night, I'll have your Tiannan Group torn down."
Nan Wan's eyes were filled with undisguised ruthlessness. After saying those harsh words, she turned and left.
His steps, however, were somewhat unsteady and unsteady.
Lu Qinglin's gaze fell on a few drops of blood on the smooth floor behind her.
That red color stung his pupils.
He jumped to his feet and roared furiously at the bodyguards lying on the ground, "Who used a weapon? Who told you to hurt her?"
The six men struggled to their feet and quickly shook their heads.
"Mr. Lu, we didn't use any weapons..."
Lu Qinglin frowned and strode after him...
