Pregnant After Healing the Alpha

Chapter 583: Chapter 572: Following Behind Qiao Jing

Zhan Qipei reluctantly withdrew his gaze and quickly walked to the kitchen, pouring a glass of cold water to cool

down.

However, his gaze uncontrollably drifted toward the direction of the bathroom. When he saw that faintly

discernible shadow behind the door again, his grip on the glass gradually tightened, his fingertips turning slightly

white.

His Adam’s apple bobbed again, knowing that if he kept looking, something would happen.

He took a deep breath, pursed his thin lips, and struggled to withdraw his gaze from the bathroom. Just as he

was about to head back to his room, the bathroom door suddenly opened.

Qiao Jing, while drying her hair, stepped out from the bathroom, immediately meeting Zhan Qipei’s intense gaze.

She paused, glanced at the clock on the wall, and noted that about ten minutes had passed since she had

started her shower.

"Have you been standing here the whole time?"

She had thought that Zhan Qipei had left to attend to his own matters, yet his posture suggested that he had

been standing in the kitchen for a while.

Zhan Qipei coughed, picked up his water glass, and walked toward his room.

"No, | was about to go back to work."

He was still not completely calm, and he absolutely mustn't let Qiao Jing find out.

Qiao Jing watched his slightly hurried retreating figure, her eyebrows lightly furrowed, her face full of confusion.

What was going on with this guy?

Why was he behaving so strangely?

She couldn't drive him away before, but now he had becmore conscious on his own?

The last the had stood outside the bathroom, Zhan Qipei had left on his own, and now he had left of his own

accord again?

How could she not think it was not a case of Zhan Qipei suddenly developing a conscience, but rather that he

was hiding something from her?

Qiao Jing didn’t think much further; if Zhan Qipei wasn’t bothering her, that was for the best.

The following day.

After work at noon, Qiao Jing was getting ready to head straight to Wonderful Hall for her clinic.

She had just packed her things when her cell phone rang.

Qiao Jing glanced at the caller ID and answered the call.

"Hello?"

Wu Xirui’s voice cfrom the other end.

"I need a follow-up today, should | cto your office, or will you cto mine?"

Qiao Jing pondered for a moment and was just about to speak when Wu Xirui answered for her.

"Or I'll cto you, given | prefer taking the initiative with you. Where are you?"

Upon hearing Wu Xirui’s words, Qiao Jing pulled a wry smile.

Since he had already decided to cto her, was there any need to ask?

Seeing Qiao Jing’s silence, Wu Xirui pressed:

"Hmm? Did you hear me?"

Qiao Jing then slowly responded.

"Wonderful Hall, cover for your follow-up now. | have patients to see this afternoon."

Zhan Nanging, who was nearby and heard Qiao Jing’s conversation, curiously glanced at her and perked up her

ears to listen carefully.

There were very few people who could contact Qiao Jing directly about a follow-up, and at least she hadn't seen

any before.

She was indeed curious to see who it was that even called Qiao Jing for this; didn’t this mean the person also

knew about Qiao Jing’s identity?

Wu Xirui acknowledged and then hung up the phone.

After hanging up, Qiao Jing put away her phone and walked toward the door.

Zhan Nanging saw Qiao Jing was leaving and immediately followed, taking a few steps before suddenly

remembering she had forgotten her bag and hurried back to grab it.

By the tshe had her bag ready, Qiao Jing had already walked away.

Zhan Nanging looked down at the high heels she was wearing. Ignoring discomfort, she began to jog to catch up.

"Qiao Jing! Wait for me!"

The first thing Qiao Jing heard was the "clack clack clack" of high heels on the ground. She paused for a moment,

and upon hearing Zhan Nanging’s words, she stopped.

She turned back to look at Zhan Nanging, a hint of confusion emerging in her eyes.

"What's wrong? I'm heading to Wonderful Hall."

Zhan Nanging’s eyes darted around, her face revealing a smile tinged with appeasement, hoping to hide the

gossip in her eyes.

"Can | cwith you? Also, who was on the phone with you just now? He actually called to say he was going to

consult? Does he know you are Divine Doctor Jing?"

Qiao Jing looked at Zhan Nanging, the "Curious Baby," and answered all her questions one by one.

"That was Wu Xirui on the phone. He doesn’t know I'm Divine Doctor Jing. Don’t you have to work this

afternoon?"

The smile on Zhan Nanging’s face disappeared instantly, replaced by a cautious expression.

"| switched shifts with Xiao Lin this afternoon. | want to go to Wonderful Hall with you."

Actually, going to Wonderful Hall wasn’t the main point; the main point was that she needed to protect her

brother from Wu Xirui.

What if Wu Xirui secretly tried to seduce Qiao Jing if she wasn’t there?

Even though she knew Qiao Jing wouldn't bother with Wu Xirui, Wu Xirui had a very thick skin. If he kept trying to

get close to Qiao Jing, that would not be good!

Qiao Jing furrowed her brows, staring at Zhan Nanging for a long while before slowly speaking.

"Are you sure? Didn't you find it boring last time?"

Yet here Zhan Nanging was, wanting to cagain?

Zhan Nanging’s expression stiffened for a moment, and she quickly replied:

"Not boring."

But this twas different, as Wu Xirui was coming to see Qiao Jing for a follow-up. She had to go even if she

didn’t want to.

Ah—

She had sacrificed so much for her brother and Qiao Jing’s relationship.

Qiao Jing hesitated for a moment,

"It's really not boring at all, I'm not lying. Let's hurry, didn’t you say you have patients to see? We shouldn't

delay."

Qiao Jing’s furrowed brows finally relaxed, and without wasting more time, she headed to Wonderful Hall with

Zhan Nanging.

Inside Wonderful Hall.

Qiao Jing had just sat down when Wu Xirui’s figure appeared at the door.

Upon seeing Wu Xirui, Zhan Nanging’s internal alarms went off, her eyes warily fixed on him, and she couldn't

help but mutter to herself.

She hadn’t even warmed her seat when Wu Xirui arrived, so eager to see Qiao Jing?

Not while she was there!

The gaze of Wu Xirui fell on Qiao Jing, his peach blossom eyes curved, a falsely polite smile carrying a hint of

sincerity as he sat across from her.

"Qiao Jing, long tno see. How have you been recently?"

Qiao Jing gave Wu Xirui a cool glance and casually replied.

"Fine, extend your hand."

She wanted to finish Wu Xirui’s follow-up quickly and then move on to the next patient.

Unlike usual, Wu Xirui didn’t extend his hand right away but instead leaned forward, narrowing the distance

between him and Qiao Jing.

"We haven't seen each other for so long. Why don’t we chat first about what's been happening lately, any

interesting stories?"
