Chapter 35: Chapter 33 Zhan Qipei Recognizes It’s Qiao Jing

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“No.”

What?

Qiao Jing froze, her astonished eyes fixed on Zhan Qipei.

No?

“How is that possible?!” Chen Qianqian’s face was full of disbelief. She had clearly thrown the bracelet into Qiao Jing’s bag just moments ago. How could it not be in Qiao Jing’s bag?

“I don’t believe it!” Chen Qianqian reached out to snatch the bag from Zhan Qipei’s hands.

Zhan Qipei returned the bag to Qiao Jing before her, his expression cold as he confronted Chen Qianqian, “Are you accusing me of protecting her?”

The icy tone made the man’s demeanor even more chilling and aloof, sending a shiver through Chen Qianqian.

“No, no. It seems it was a misunderstanding,” Chen Qianqian bit her lip, her eyes darting around as she thought maybe when she threw it, it accidentally fell to the ground.

Chen Qianqian searched the ground while sheepishly making her exit.

“Stop,” Zhan Qipei called out to Chen Qianqian. “You’ve forgotten something.”

“Ah?” Chen Qianqian turned to look at Zhan Qipei, her face clearly confused.

“Apologize to her,” Zhan Qipei said to Chen Qianqian, glancing at Qiao Jing by his side.

Hearing this, Chen Qianqian’s eyes widened in surprise, her mouth agape.

In Qiao Jing’s skeptical gaze at Zhan Qipei, there was a faint touch of emotion.

“What? Aren’t you going to keep your word? She is considered my wife in name by the and Zhan family, and it is not for others to slander her. Apologize now! Otherwise, from today on, the Zhan family will sever all business ties with your Chen family!”

Zhan Qipei’s voice was low, neither warm nor fiery, and his expression was utterly unruffled, yet it carried a wild and imperious air.

Chen Qianqian was stunned, never anticipating such a terrible consequence of her actions

Chen Family didn’t compare to the Zhan Family; they barely made it as upper-class tycoons in the capital.

But the Zhan family was different, the absolute top tier!

If the Zhan family really cut off all business with their Chen family, most of the other tycoons would likely follow suit and abandon the Chen family.

By then, she would become the eternal sinner of the Chen family.

The more she thought, the more frightened Chen Qianqian became, until her legs began to tremble.

Just then, a scolding voice suddenly erupted beside her.

“What are you still doing standing there? Apologize now!” Father Chen yelled in frustration.

Startled by the shout, Chen Qianqian didn’t dare delay and immediately went in front of Qiao Jing, bowing deeply at 90 degrees. “I’m sorry, I was wrong, I shouldn’t have wronged you.”

Qiao Jing slightly lifted her eyebrows, didn’t respond, and turned to walk towards the dining area.

This matter seemed to be concluded for now.

Qiao Jing picked up a piece of mousse and went to a corner, savoring it slowly.

Halfway through eating, she paused, opened her bag, and rummaged through it.

She found an emerald bracelet.

Qiao Jing stared at the bracelet, her beautiful brows slowly knitting together.

After a few seconds pause, she looked in the direction where Zhan Qipei was. She saw him putting down his wine glass and leaving alone.

“Drank too much?”

Qiao Jing noted Zhan Qipei’s flushed face, red all the way to his neck, and guessed that he probably had too much to drink.

Just as Qiao Jing was about to avert her gaze, she noticed a girl in a bright red strapless evening gown quietly following him.

Sneaky, with seemingly impure intentions.

Qiao Jing’s gaze returned to the bracelet, after thinking for two seconds, she put it back in her bag and quickly followed.

Following at a distance, Qiao Jing first saw Zhan Qipei looking unwell as he entered a room, then saw the girl in the pink evening gown follow him inside.

“Get out!” The low growl carried an indescribable suppression.

Qiao Jing placed her hand on the door handle, pushing it open just a crack to peek inside.

The first thing she saw was Zhan Qipei sitting on the bed.

Zhan Qipei’s face was even redder than before, blood-red, and not only that, but his forehead was also dripping with big beads of sweat, he was gasping for breath, and his eyes were slightly hazy.

Through this series of symptoms, Qiao Jing immediately knew what was going on.

Qiao Jing’s gaze shifted to the girl in the pink evening dress. As expected, the person who had meddled surreptitiously was her.

“I told you to leave, can’t you understand?!” Zhan Qipei gritted his molars, trying to maintain the last bit of rationality he had left.

Although the girl in the pink evening gown was scared, she had already done what she’d done, and she could only tough it out to the end.

“Young Master Zhan, with your condition, I can’t leave. I’m volunteering, you don’t have to take responsibility!” With that, the girl in the pink evening dress boldly walked towards Zhan Qipei.

“Get out!” Zhan Qipei used the last of his strength to kick the girl in the pink evening gown who was close to him, knocking her to the floor.

“Ah—” The girl in the pink evening gown covered her stomach and fell to the ground, looking at Zhan Qipei’s terrifying face, she was so scared that she turned and ran, rushing out of the room.

Only Zhan Qipei was left in the room, he no longer held back and let out a heavy breath, leaning on the nightstand and walking towards the bathroom.

His vision was blurred by waves of heat, his condition was very bad right now.

Just then, the door was pushed open from outside.

Zhan Qipei, alert, looked towards the door immediately.

“Not leaving yet? Do you want to die?!”

Zhan Qipei couldn’t see clearly who the person was, thinking that it was still the girl standing at the door.

Seeing Zhan Qipei’s condition was very bad, Qiao Jing worried that if he wasn’t treated quickly, he might indeed become infertile.

“Just lie down, I’ll help you.”

Qiao Jing had no other medical supplies available, so she could only use acupressure combined with massage, to expel the drugs from the man’s body.

Zhan Qipei watched Qiao Jing approaching, and although he gritted his teeth with hatred, he was helpless.

That kick earlier had used up all of his strength.

Now, he was like a fish on a chopping board.

When Qiao Jing reached Zhan Qipei’s side, she reached out, helped the man up, and pushed him onto the bed. Then familiarly, she unbuckled his belt.

“You, you dare!”

As soon as Zhan Qipei spoke,

Qiao Jing yanked his pants down.

Zhan Qipei’s face instantly darkened.

“If you dare again—”

Before Zhan Qipei could finish his words, his underwear was pulled down again.

At this moment, Zhan Qipei no longer got angry, but rather, his face showed more confusion and astonishment, feeling the familiarity of the scene, as if… as if…

Qiao Jing pressed and massaged his acupoints with a serious and solemn expression; this was her usual professional attitude.

Zhan Qipei widened his eyes, trying to clearly see the girl treating him.

His vision was so blurred, he couldn’t see clearly.

It was precisely because he couldn’t see clearly that he could see the figure busily moving on him, overlapping with the images in his memory.

“It’s you!”

Upon hearing those two words, Qiao Jing reflexively paused.

Noticing the girl’s reaction, Zhan Qipei became even more certain of his guess.

It really was her!

“You finally showed up!”

Zhan Qipei was overjoyed, and under the excitement, his strength suddenly returned somewhat. He grabbed Qiao Jing’s arm, flipped over, and firmly pinned her beneath him.

Qiao Jing’s eyes widened as she looked at the man pressing down on her, “Stop moving, I’m treating you.”

Zhan Qipei’s lips curved up, “For treatment, there’s no need for all this trouble since you’ve come, why don’t you just stay tonight.”

Having said that, Zhan Qipei directly pressed down.
