Pregnant After Healing the Alpha

Chapter 458: Chapter 447: Missing the Chance to Meet Qiao Jing Chapter 458: Chapter 447: Missing the Chance

to Meet Qiao Jing She must have been busy with work when she hung up the phone in such a hurry.

So, it probably wasn’t a cold war.

Tang Yan didn’t know the whole story and didn’t dare to ask proactively, so he couldn't answer Zhan Qipei.

Gossiping about a superior’s private affairs was a surefire way to lose one’s job!

Meanwhile, at the research institute.

After hanging up the phone, Qiao Jing got back to work seriously.

Zhan Nanging sensed that something was off; her woman's intuition told her that something had happened

between Qiao Jing and her brother.

Although Qiao Jing’s usual demeanor was quite detached, today it seemed over the top.

The workload wasn’t heavy today, and Qiao Jing’s eagerness to hang up the phone seemed like she didn’t want

to talk to her brother.

The most important point!

During the call, she had noticed that Qiao Jing’s brows were furrowed, so there must be something wrong!

Wanting to avoid any misunderstanding between Qiao Jing and her brother that could affect their relationship,

she decided to be the scout and investigate for her brother.

“Qiao Jing.”

Qiao Jing paused in her movements, her brows knitted together.

“What is it?”

She saw the look on Zhan Nanging’s face, as if she had something to ask her.

Could it be that Zhan Nanging had noticed something was off?

Seeing Qiao Jing’s reaction, Zhan Nanqing felt even more certain about her suspicions.

“Did something happen between you and my brother? Any misunderstanding? Will you tell me?”

Qiao Jing shook her head, saying resolutely,

“No.”

She wouldn't taint Zhan Qipei’s reputation; leaving quietly was her style.

She didn’t want to have a life-or-death struggle with Zhan Qipei before leaving.

She vividly remembered everything Zhan Qipei had done for her and would always be grateful for his kindness.

Zhan Nanging scrutinized Qiao Jing with a suspicious gaze, her face filled with disbelief.

“Really? Then why were you in such a rush to hang up the call just now? Work isn’t that heavy today, right? For

you, it should be a piece of cake, something you could finish in two hours.”

Qiao Jing pursed her red lips slightly and glanced at Zhan Nanging with indifference.

“I have to go to Wonderful Hall for a consultation this afternoon. If | finish earlier, | can go there sooner.”

She was indeed scheduled for a consultation that afternoon, and this reason could also serve to mislead Zhan

Nanging.

Zhan Nanging nodded her head, as if she suddenly understood.

“So that’s why. | thought you had an argument with my brother. It’s good that everything is fine, you scared me.”

Qiao Jing uttered an “Mm” and paid no further attention to Zhan Nanging.

After finishing work at noon, Qiao Jing took a taxi to Wonderful Hall.

After work, Zhan Qipei immediately drove from Zhan Corporation to the research institute.

When he arrived at the entrance of the institute, Zhan Qipei called Qiao Jing, but there was no answer.

He had no choice but to get out of the car and approach the security guard.

“Is Professor Qiao here?”

The security guard recognized Zhan Qipei and replied respectfully,

“President Zhan, Professor Qiao left the institute five minutes ago.”

Zhan Qipei furrowed his brows and was about to call Zhan Nanging when he received a phone call from Tang Yan.

“Boss! There's a problem with a project, we need you to cback and take a look.”

Zhan Qipei didn’t plan on leaving; he was eager to see Qiao Jing.

“Which project?”

Tang Yan immediately answered,

“The overseas fifteen billion project.”

Zhan Qipei’s brow was tightly furrowed as he looked at the entrance of the research institute.

He hesitated for a long tbefore he spoke,

“I'll go back now.”

And so, Qiao Jing and Zhan Qipei perfectly missed the chance to meet each other.

After arriving at the Wonderful Hall, Qiao Jing, seeing no patients around, sat down on a chair and flipped through

a medical book.

Moments later, someone entered through the door.

Qiao Jing heard the light footsteps of the other party and discerned that it was a woman.

She looked up at the newcomer and recognized the woman.

It was the woman who had dined with Zhan Qipei.

Qiao Jing’s eyebrows knitted slightly, but they quickly relaxed.

Zhan Yunyu was dressed in an expensive dress, her face adorned with delicate makeup, and her physique and

appearance were exceptional.

The moment Zhan Yunyu saw Qiao Jing, her eyes lit up; she hurried over and sat down in front of her.

“Hello, I'm here for medical consultation. I've been pregnant for five months now, and I've been feeling a bit

unwell lately.”

Qiao Jing hummed in response, her cool gaze deepening as her fingertips rested on Zhan Yunyu’s pulse.

Five months... That was earlier than her own pregnancy?

Seconds passed, and Qiao Jing withdrew her hand.

“The baby is very healthy, but you have been overworking yourself recently. You need to rest well. | will prescribe

smedicine for you to take.”

Zhan Yunyu nodded vigorously, her gaze fixed on Qiao Jing.

“Yes, yes, yes.”

Qiao Jing had a shop assistant pack up the medicine for Zhan Yunyu and placed it on the table.

“I would like to ask you a few questions.”

Seeing this, the shop attendant tactfully went upstairs.

Zhan Yunyu, before Qiao Jing could speak, preemptively addressed her.

“Wait a moment, are you Qiao Jing?”

She had cspecifically to see her niece-in-law, and she was captivated by the woman sitting in the chair the

moment she entered.

This poise, this beauty, it must be her niece-in-law.

Qiao Jing did not hesitate and denied her identity.

“No, I am not.”

But she did not think the woman before her was a mistress, because she and Zhan Qipei were not officially

together.

She did not want to cause a scene with the woman, nor had she thought about competing with the woman for

Zhan Qipei, so she simply denied her own identity outright.

Zhan Yunyu was taken aback for a moment, her expression showing regret.

“Ah, alright, | thought you were Qiao Jing. Is Qiao Jing in the shop now?”

Qiao Jing shook her head.

“She didn’t ctoday. | wanted to ask, how old are you this year? | need to make sure the medicine | just

prescribed doesn’t contain anything unsuitable for you.”

Zhan Yunyu, realizing the person before her was not Qiao Jing, tucked away the excitement she had previously

shown and adopted her usual manner when dealing with others.

“Thirty-three. Do you have any other questions? | can answer them all at once.”

Although it was a pity not to meet her niece-in-law, seeing the woman before her with such good demeanor and

beauty, she felt like chatting more with her.

Qiao Jing shook her head, sensing from their conversation that the other party was very well-educated.

Moreover, her demeanor clearly indicated she was from a wealthy family, and her age was not much different

from that of Zhan Qipei.

Considering everything, she concluded that they were quite suitable for each other.

Seeing that Qiao Jing had no further questions for her, Zhan Yunyu began to introduce herself instead.

“| spend most of my tabroad, and

| had heard of the Wonderful Halls

reputation before Having Corrie here

tGday, Nye truly is extraordinary. |

now very much want to get to know

you and be friends, if that's possible?”

She appreciated beauty in all things, including people, so she particularly wanted to befriend Qiao Jing.

Qiao Jing decisively rejected Zhan Yunyu'’s offer.

“I'm sorry.”

She did not want to becoverly involved with the other party, let alone get to know her.

If things went as expected, this was both the first and the last tthey would meet.

Zhan Yunyu sighed.

“Alright then.”
