You Are My Unforgettable Love - Chapter 1788 - Did They Think She Was a Weakling? (18)

Qiao Yiyi halted and turned around.

Only a nightlight remained on, so the room was dim. At that moment, Lu Nanze’s back was to her as he lay in bed. She couldn’t see his expression.

It was hard to tell if there were any emotions involved in this question, what he meant, or what his intent was.

In the few seconds she took to ponder the question, the man grunted impatiently.

She snapped back to her senses and replied in astonishment, “What?”

Lu Nanze asked again impatiently, “Why did you marry me?”

Qiao Yiyi began to curse and swear silently.

Damn it.

You think I wanted to do this?

Everything had been in order to dodge Liang Liang’s relentless pursuit. Because of Bai Anan’s connection with the police chief, she had substantial resources to turn the world inside out to find her. So how could she possibly not try to find a safe place?

Lu Nanze was powerful, hence she had targeted him.

But of course, she couldn’t tell him that.

She lowered her head and coughed slightly. Then she answered, “Because… my family wanted me to marry you, so I did.”

Lu Nanze chortled and said, “Do you think I will actually believe that?”

A smart and eccentric woman like her—a woman who could force Li Tingting to throw up her food—would obey her family so readily?

If she hadn’t wanted to do it, she would have thought of all sorts of ways to resist the arrangement.

But she hadn’t.

Hence, she must have had some reason to marry him.

Perhaps it was a desire for a comfortable and luxurious life, perhaps it was for the money.

As he pondered the possibilities, he heard the girl pause and sigh softly.

Surprised, he tilted his head and turned to look at her.

Her head was lowered, as she thought hard about how to give the man a satisfactory answer.

It was obvious that if she couldn’t give him a reasonable answer, he wasn’t going to let it go.

Besides, his attitude towards Li Tingting had changed.

He now seemed to have suddenly taken sides with the other girl, clearly in order to upset and torture Qiao Yiyi.

But prior to this, hadn’t Lu Nanze treated her like she was invisible anyway?

So what was this situation now?

However, this was besides the point and could be sorted out later. Now the most urgent task at hand was to give him a reasonable answer.

Apart from family reasons, what other reasons could a woman have for marrying a man?

As she contemplated this, she suddenly saw light and sighed in relief quietly.

She turned around, looked at Lu Nanze with sincerity in her eyes and said with earnestness, “Because I like you.”

Lu Nanze: …

She paused as her mind raced to find a reason to support her answer.

“Many years ago, perhaps you don’t even remember anymore… At the time, my mother and father were still together. When they finally got a divorce, life became tough for Mom. One time, I got bullied, but you helped me, and I still remembered you.”

Lu Nanze: …

The more Qiao Yiyi spun this story, the more she got into the swing of it.

She continued, “I- I still remembered you. Half a year ago, when you needed to find someone with the name Qiao Yiyi, Dad suggested this to me. At first I didn’t agree, I felt that I was doing fine and surviving on my own, why would I want to go home? But when I saw that the person seeking marriage was you, I went home.”
