Chapter 104: Chapter 98 Accidentally Revealed Qiao Jing’s Identity
Hmm?
Zhan Qipei frowned. Qian Yuang was flirting with Qiao Jing, so why was Gan Lanlan even more agitated than
him?
Qian Yuang was also totally bewildered. Qiao Jing’s man hadn’t done anything to him yet; how could an outsider
like you suddenly get violent with him?
“Gan Shaoye, what are you doing?”
“Qian Yuang! Didn't you brush your teeth this morning? Why is your mouth so foul? Apologize to her! If you don’t
apologize to her today, | won't let this go!” Gan Lanlan was so angry that her face turned bright red.
At that moment, Qiao Jing’s voice rose.
“There's no need to get angry with people like that, it's a waste of expressions.”
“But he said those things to you!” Gan Lanlan really wanted to throw Qian Yuang out of his house.
Qiao Jing’s indifferent gaze swept over Qian Yuang and turned to Gan Lanlan, “If you're bitten by a dog, do you
really need to bite back?”
She dared to call him a dog? Qian Yuang glared at Qiao Jing, furiously making up his mind that one day he would
make her regret it!
“Fine, I'll listen to you.” Gan Lanlan loosened his tight grip on Qian Yuang’s collar, stepped back and stood
behind Qiao Jing, showing obedience.
Qian Yuang glanced at Qiao Jing and then at Gan Lanlan. Something seemed off between the two! The heir to the
prestigious Gan family and furthermore someone who could enter Professor Qiao’s Research Institute, why would
he be so deferential to Qiao Jing?
Hold on.
Qian Yuang belatedly remembered something. Qiao Jing was also working in the research institute; could it be
that after getting to know each other, they developed romantic feelings?
Or was it possible that they had already made secret arrangements? After all, Gan Lanlan’s reaction just now
was even stronger than Zhan Qipei’s.
Gan Changfeng walked over and pulled Gan Lanlan to the side, “What happened? Why did you suddenly attack
Qian Yuang?”
“He was bullying Miss Qiao!” Gan Lanlan got all worked up just mentioning it.
Gan Changfeng glanced in the direction where Qiao Jing was and was completely confused, “How is this any of
your business?”
“Of course, it’s my business! She is my—" Idol, he almost blurted out the words.
In the Gan family, everyone knew his idol was Professor Qiao. If he had slipped up just now, his dad would have
definitely guessed Qiao Jing’s identity.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRight, he couldn’t mention Professor Qiao’s identity, but there was another matter he could talk about.
“The person who rescued Qiqi at the school gate that day was Miss Qiao.”
“It was her?” Gan Changfeng looked towards Qiao Jing again in shock, finding it hard to reconcile her slender,
delicate appearance with someone who had a high combat power.
But as the old saying goes, appearances are deceiving.
Lu Zijiao cup beside Zhan Qipei, “What's going on here?”
Zhan Qipei looked at Qiao Jing and remained silent.
“Let’s not talk about that for now. You chere specifically to negotiate business with the Gan family, how did
it go?” Lu Zijiao asked.
Zhan Qipei took a sip of red wine, “President Gan just rejected me. The Gan family and Qian family have
interacted for many years. This project has always been handled by the Qian family, and | had anticipated it
would be a tough nut to crack. But | don’t want to give up, as I've always wanted to try out this field and expand
into it.”
“Indeed, that is tough,” Lu Zijiao shook his head.
Qiao Jing lowered her thick, curled lashes and after a two-second silence, she looked towards Zhan Qipei,
“Maybe | can help you negotiate.”
As soon as Qiao Jing spoke, Zhan Qipei and Lu Zijiao nearly turned to look at her at the stime.
“You have a way? What could you possibly do?” Lu Zijiao eyed Qiao Jing skeptically.
It wasn’t that he looked down on Qiao Jing, but a deal even Zhan Qipei couldn't clinch—how could Qiao Jing, a
girl with no connections from the countryside, manage it?
“Let's give it a try.” Having said that, Qiao Jing walked towards Gan Lanlan.
Lu Zijiao touched his chin, watching Qiao Jing’s retreating figure, “I know Gan Lanlan is now working in Professor
Qiao’s Research Institute, but they should have known each other for only a few days, right? Yet, from the looks
of things just now, it seemed like they had a pretty good relationship?”
Zhan Qipei’s eyebrows were tightly knitted, his gaze tracking Qiao Jing’s movements.
“Gan Lanlan, there's something | want to talk to you about.”
Upon hearing her idol calling her, Gan Lanlan immediately ran over like she was on a mission.
“I want to ask you for a favor,” Qiao Jing got straight to the point.
“Professor Qiao, it's an honor to be of help to you. Whatever you need, just say the word. If it’s within my power,
I'll get it done. And if it’s not, I... Ill find a way to make it happen,” Gan Lanlan said, thumping her chest
confidently.
“All right then, I'll be direct. | want you to persuade your dad to give the project to the Zhan Family.”
Gan Lanlan had not expected Qiao Jing to speak up for Zhan Qipei, which cas a surprise to her.
“Professor Qiao, why are you so good to him?” Gan Lanlan pouted as she asked.
“It's merely to repay a favor,” Qiao Jing explained. If it weren't for Zhan Qipei’s timely arrival during the car
racing accident, she might have been out of luck.
Not only that, she had learned later. The person who threw something at her car that night was none other than
Xue Huiyao of the Xue Family, and shortly afterward, the Xue Family was acquired by Zhan Corporation.
Although Zhan Qipei had never mentioned a word of this to her, she guessed that he had done it for her sake.
She never brought up this debt of gratitude, keeping it in her heart instead.
Not mentioning it didn’t mean she had forgotten; she simply lacked a suitable opportunity to repay Zhan Qipei’s
kindness.
That's why she took the initiative to step forward to see if she could help Zhan Qipei secure this business deal. If
it worked out, it would be her way of repaying him.
“So that’s how it is. I'll talk to my dad and let you know. I'll definitely find a way to take care of it for you!”
Gan Lanlan returned to Gan Changfeng’s side, “Dad, there's something | need to tell you...”
Gan Lanlan relayed what Qiao Jing had said to her to Gan Changfeng.
“What did you say?” Gan Changfeng had not expected Gan Lanlan to propose such a thing, nor had he
anticipated Qiao Jing would ask his son to intervene in their family’s business.
“Dad, you have to agree to this!” Gan Lanlan didn’t want to disappoint Qiao Jing.
Gan Changfeng was in a difficult

position, “It's not that | don't agree,

“But she saved Qiqi! She's our family’s benefactor!” Gan Lanlan continued to try to persuade him.
“I am deeply grateful for that, and I've thought about it. | will invite her to a meal later, give her sgifts, as a
gesture from our Gan family,” replied Gan Changfeng.
Gan Changfeng was someone who believed in reciprocating kindness. He was thankful to Qiao Jing for saving his
daughter, but he saw gratitude and business as two separate matters.
Seeing there was no room for maneuver, Gan Lanlan grew more anxious.

the shoulder, speaking earnestly,
