Chapter 16: Chapter 15: Do You Doubt That | Am The One Who Saved You?
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Qiao Jing directly brought her hand behind her back, a stubborn look adding to her attractive features, “Listen to
“I promise you, | won't demolish the orphanage, now giveyour hand,” Zhan Qipei’s face showed a helpless
expression.
He agreed to her just like that? Was it that simple?
Qiao Jing stared at Zhan Qipei with suspicion.
Seeing that Qiao Jing refused to bring out her hand, Zhan Qipei didn’t wait any longer and forcefully pulled her
hand from behind her back.
“It’s not that serious, don’t worry about it, it'll scab over soon,” Qiao Jing said, looking at the back of her hand.
Zhan Qipei’s brows furrowed, ignoring Qiao Jing’s words and continued treating her wound.
During the treatment, his actions were very gentle, as if he was afraid of hurting Qiao Jing.
Qiao Jing kept scrutinizing Zhan Qipei with a doubtful gaze, always feeling that he was acting strange today.
Just as the wound was dealt with, Qiao Jing attempted to withdraw her hand, only to find the man holding onto it
without letting go.
“You?”
“Aren’t you supposed to be sickly and weak? It seems like you took down those people,” Zhan Qipei said with his
piercing black eyes intently staring at Qiao Jing.
Qiao Jing’s pupils shrank slightly as she replied without changing her expression, “That's exactly why my
grandpa sentto the martial arts school. To learn sbasic moves, to strengthen the body, and for self-
defense. Is there a conflict in that?”
Without waiting for Zhan Qipei to continue questioning, Qiao Jing turned the tables and asked, “You're not
suspectingof being the person who saved you, are you?”
After Qiao Jing asked, she noticed doubt had crept into his investigative gaze.
“Isn't it you?” Zhan Qipei countered.
Qiao Jing displayed an exasperated expression, “I've explained everything | needed to. The person you
mentioned isn't me, I've already said that. And | believe you've investigated as well. The day you were saved, |
had been picked up by your mother.”
“Yes, I've indeed investigated. But perhaps there was a discrepancy in time...” Zhan Qipei trailed off, starting to

“Fine, then ass| was the one who saved you,” Qiao Jing said, “Since | saved you, you owe me. Givefive
billion, your life is worth that much money.”
Asking him for money? The girl who saved him did a good deed without leaving her name, noble in character,
surely couldn’t be the Qiao Jing in front of him.
Zhan Qipei’s face revealed a cold smile, “Do you know why I'm looking for her?”
“Isn't it because she saved you, and you want to repay the debt?”
“Wrong. It's because she did something unforgivable to me, and | want her to pay for it!” That was what Zhan
Qipei kept in his heart.
Hearing these words, Qiao Jing’s eyes narrowed slightly.
She had guessed that Zhan Qipei wasn’t looking for her just to express his gratitude. She'd realized this while
operating on the man.
That look in his eyes, as if he wanted to devour her, was something she remembered vividly to this day.
“So you still admit you are her, right?”
“I've always been saying I'm not her, you just refuse to believe it,” Qiao Jing said lazily, leaning against the car
door and propping her chin with one hand.
Zhan Qipei looked at Qiao Jing with disdain, “Five billion, you don’t want it?”
“Just five billion, | have my own.”
Qiao Jing was telling the truth, but to Zhan Qipei, it sounded like a joke.
Outside the car, Chen Zhiyi paced back and forth anxiously, glancing at the car from tto time.
What exactly was happening inside? Chen Zhiyi no longer dared to think positively. The anxious expression on
Zhan Qipei’s face when he had arrived was troubling enough.
What was really going on? Chen Zhiyi couldn't figure it out.
Wasn't their boss not fond of this country bride? He hadn't even shown up at the wedding. It was unlikely that
the boss would call this way specially for this country woman, right?
Just as Chen Zhiyi was fraught with anxiety, the car door opened, and Zhan Qipei and Qiao Jing got out.
Xu Mogian immediately cto Qiao Jing’s side, his worried gaze sweeping up and down her body as if he was
ready to fight Zhan Qipei to the death if even a single hair on Qiao Jing’s head was harmed.
The way Xu Mogian was acting made Zhan Qipei’s teeth itch with irritation.
Even if he did not like Qiao Jing, she was, after all, his legal wife. Xu Mogian’s concern for Qiao Jing made him
feel like he was wearing a huge grassland on his head.
“Sister Jing, he didn’t do anything to you, did he?” Xu Mogian asked, looking at Qiao Jing.
“No, we just talked about the welfare institute.”
“How did it go? Is it settled? If it isn’t, | can ask my dad to intervene. If my dad isn’t enough, my grandpa’s
influence should do it. If they still don’t give face, then you can reveal—" Xu Mogian, while speaking, caught Qiao
Jing’s sharp glare.
“Cough cough, you can reveal your
status as the granddaughter-in-law of
the Zhan Family anggoxo aha
Qipgits larutatRer. He likes you so
much, he will surely make decisions
on your behalf,” Xu Mogian quickly
corrected himself. The content is on

Xu Mogian stealthily glanced at Zhan Qipei’s face, and seeing no particular reaction, he breathed a sigh of relief
internally.
Qiao Jing gave Xu Mogian a look, signaling him to be careful with his words.
Xu Mogian stealthily made an “ok” gesture to Qiao Jing and zipped his lips with his fingers.
Zhan Qipei caught their subtle interaction, his expression darkening, lips pursed tightly.
“You've known each other for a long time?”
“Of course, we met in university,” Qiao Jing replied.

When Zhan Qipei said this, he gave Xu Mogian a sidelong glance.
“It's not 100 days now; there are 93 days left,” Qiao Jing corrected him clearly.
Hearing Qiao Jing’s words, Zhan Qipei’s chest visibly heaved. Then, without another look at Qiao Jing, he turned
and walked away.
After he reached the side of the car and noticed Qiao Jing hadn't followed, he turned his head.
Qiao Jing and Xu Mogian were laughing and walking shoulder to shoulder into the welfare institute.
Zhan Qipei was so angry he felt a raging fire in his chest and growled lowly at Qiao Jing.
“Qiao Jing!”
