Chapter 207: Chapter 200 Who Are You With?

“Brother, what are you doing?” Zhan Bei asked, puzzled.

After sending the photo, Zhan Nan’s face revealed a sinister smirk.

“Doesn’t our eldest cousin care a lot about her? What do you think his reaction would be if he saw Qiao Jing getting close with another man?”

Zhan Bei’s eyes brightened, “By doing this, our eldest cousin will definitely kick her out of the house!”

“Exactly. Then once she is kicked out, we’ll grab her, confine her, and torture her however we want.”

“Hehehe–” Zhan Nan and Zhan Bei snickered evilly.

Qiao Jing stared at the petals in Wu Xirui’s hand, “Thanks.”

“You’re welcome.”

“Are you free this weekend?” Qiao Jing asked.

“Are you asking me out on a date?” Wu Xirui raised an eyebrow and without waiting for Qiao Jing to respond, continued, “Though I am quite busy, since it’s you who’s inviting me, I’m more than willing to make time for a date.”

Qiao Jing rolled her eyes at Wu Xirui, speechlessly, “It’s just for consultation, don’t bother if you won’t attend.”

After dropping those words, Qiao Jing turned and walked away.

“Sorry, I speak like this; don’t take it to heart,” Wu Xirui said, thinking Qiao Jing was mad.

“I didn’t think much about it; I still have things to do.”

“Where are you going? Can I give you a ride?” Wu Xirui followed and asked.

“I–”

“Buzz, buzz, buzz–” The sound of the phone vibrating interrupted Qiao Jing’s words.

Qiao Jing pulled out her phone and saw it was a call from Zhan Qipei.

Wu Xirui also noticed the incoming call display on Qiao Jing’s phone, slightly squinting his eyes.

Qiao Jing pressed the answer button and placed the phone against her ear.

“Where are you? Who are you with?”

Huh? Qiao Jing paused, stopped walking, and looked around. She didn’t see Zhan Qipei anywhere.

She had thought Zhan Qipei was nearby when he suddenly asked that.

“Why aren’t you speaking?” There was a suppressed tone in the man’s voice.

Hearing his words, Qiao Jing sensed something unusual.

“You–”

“Beep–” A sound came.

Qiao Jing received a message from Zhan Qipei.

It was a photo.

In the photo, Wu Xirui was reaching his hand above her head.

Seeing this, Qiao Jing immediately understood.

“Where did this photo come from?” Qiao Jing looked around once more, finally fixing her gaze on a car parked not far away.

That car…

“Brother! Look, she’s looking this way.”

“Don’t overthink; she’s just looking.”

No sooner had Zhan Nan finished speaking than Qiao Jing started rushing toward them.

“Damn! Has she spotted us?”

“Stop talking and drive!”

Zhan Bei stepped hard on the accelerator. Although Qiao Jing was fast, two legs couldn’t catch up with four wheels.

By the time Qiao Jing chased them, the car had already driven away.

“Hello? Hello?” Zhan Qipei’s voice came from the phone, quickly sensing that something was amiss.

“What happened?”

“Who sent you that photo just now?” Qiao Jing asked again.

Zhan Qipei stroked his eyebrows, “It was sent anonymously, why?”

Qiao Jing raised her hand to her chin and pondered. This car looked familiar; it seemed she had seen it in the garage the last time she visited Zhan Kaiyang’s house.

“Qiao Jing? Qiao Jing!” Zhan Qipei called out anxiously.

Qiao Jing pulled her thoughts back, “It’s nothing.”

Zhan Qipei clenched his fist, his thin lips pressed tightly together, his expression as cold as the winter wind.

Something must have happened. Was he not supposed to mention it? Was she treating him like an outsider?

“Tell me!”

Qiao Jing could hear the urgency in his voice.

“Just now, a few people were following me. At first, I thought I was just being watched, but then I saw a car hurriedly driving away nearby.”

So this was not just a simple tracking but something with purpose and planning.

If the plan failed this time, there would be a next time.

This was dangerous.

“Did you see who did it?” Zhan Qipei urgently asked.

Qiao Jing slightly frowned, but she hadn’t planned on telling Zhan Qipei about her analysis from earlier.

“No.”

Because of her, the Zhan family, Zhan Yuanshan’s branch, and Zhan Kaiyang’s branch were no longer on speaking terms.

She only thought the car looked familiar, but it might not necessarily be the same one.

Yet if she thought about it, she and Zhan Nan and Zhan Bei had formed a grudge some time ago. It was not impossible for them to seek revenge afterward.

“Where are you now? I’ll come to pick you up.” Zhan Qipei grabbed his coat and headed out.

“Boss, where are you going? Boss Wang has arrived and is about to come up,” Tang Yan said in a deep voice. Zhan Qipei hadn’t turned on the speakerphone, but Qiao Jing could hear clearly.

“You don’t need to come over. The plan failed, and the car has disappeared without a trace. They probably won’t come again tonight,” Qiao Jing quickly said.

“And I’ll be at the orphanage soon. Even if those people are bold, they wouldn’t dare to cause trouble at the orphanage.”

Qiao Jing could figure this out, and Zhan Qipei could naturally figure it out too.

Still–he just couldn’t feel at ease.

“I’ll still come over and check.”

He still didn’t feel assured.

“I’m not familiar with him; he’s just my patient, and I happened to bump into him,” Qiao Jing’s words stopped Zhan Qipei in his tracks.

Zhan Qipei understood Qiao Jing’s character. In this kind of situation, there was no need for her to lie, nor did she deign to tell such a lie to him.

“You’re explaining to me? That means I’m in your heart; you don’t want me to misunderstand.”

As he spoke, the corners of Zhan Qipei’s mouth turned up.

Qiao Jing couldn’t see Zhan Qipei’s expression, but she could tell from his voice that he was delighted.

“Think whatever you like. I still have to rush to the orphanage. I’m hanging up now,” Qiao Jing said.

Qiao Jing knew well that even if she continued to explain, he couldn’t listen. He would only see it as her being afraid of him misunderstanding, which is why she explained.

Wu Xirui spoke after Qiao Jing had hung up the phone: “Do you want me to help you check?”

“No need to bother you; I have a way of finding out.” Qiao Jing had thought it over. When she got the chance, she would ask Xu Moqian to find out who was trying to harm her.

“Don’t reject my kindness. You’re willing to treat my illness. I don’t have much to offer in return. I can’t just accept your kindness for nothing–my conscience wouldn’t allow it,” Wu Xirui insisted.

Qiao Jing stopped in her tracks and turned to look at Wu Xirui, “Kindness for nothing? Let me tell you, Mr. Wu, you might be misunderstanding something here. I never said I would treat you for free.”

Wu Xirui was stunned, “You want to charge me?”

Qiao Jing laughed, “Try going to a hospital and see if they treat you without charging?”

Wu Xirui shook his head in disappointment, “And here I thought you were treating me for free because you thought I was handsome.”

Wu Xirui wasn’t truly disappointed; he was just putting on an act for Qiao Jing to see.

In fact, not only was he not disappointed, but he was also quite pleased.

Because he had really discovered a gem–this Qiao Jing. The more he interacted with her, the more pleasant surprises Qiao Jing brought him.

It’s no wonder… Zhan Qipei cherished her like a treasure.
