Chapter 718: Chapter 707: The Man Who Wouldn't Let Go
Zhan Nanging smacked her lips before settling back into her seat.
Qiao Jing was still thinking about how Zhan Kaiyang had framed her.
Since Zhan Kaiyang had harbored intentions of framing her, it was a clear indication he wanted to harm her.
It seemed that from now on, she would have to be more vigilant towards any moves Zhan Kaiyang might make.
As she was mulling over this, the voice of Xu Hongzu suddenly cfrom beside her.
"Xiao Jing, are you still thinking about that Zhan Kaiyang? It infuriates me! That old boy Zhan Kaiyang has such
gall, daring to bully Xiao Jing! Just because his brother is Zhan Yuanshan doesn’t mean | can’t touch him! | dare
to mess with Zhan Yuanshan, let alone him, who's a generation younger than me. | could take care of him with
ease!"
Qiao Jing glanced at the enraged Xu Hongzu and sighed somewhat helplessly.
"Grandpa Xu, please eat your meal. There's no need for you to trouble yourself."
Looking at Xu Hongzu’s current state, she got the impression that he was ready to go out and have a showdown
with Zhan Kaiyang this instant.
Xu Hongzu huffed and glared at Qiao Jing for quite stbefore finally nodding, albeit reluctantly.
"However, | believe nobody can bully Xiao Jing, to be honest. Judging by your capabilities, | can’t even touch a
hair on your head, let alone Zhan Kaiyang being a simple matter for you."
He paused, picked up a piece of fish, and placed it in Qiao Jing’s bowl.
"Enough of these annoying matters, let's eat."
Qiao Jing nodded and refocused her attention entirely back onto the banquet.
"Okay."
An hour later.
Qiao Jing and Zhan Nanqing walked out the door together.
As they reached the entrance, they saw a familiar car stopped in front of them.
Zhan Qipei first lowered the car window on one side, then his gaze settled steadily on Qiao Jing. After briefly
sizing her up to make sure she was unharmed, he got out of the car.
He walked over to Qiao Jing and opened the passenger door.
"Let's go home."
Qiao Jing nodded, slid into the passenger seat, and raised her eyes to look at Zhan Nanging.
"Nanging, get in and let him take you back as well."

It was getting late, and for Zhan Nanging, a young girl, taking a taxi cwith certain risks.
Hearing Qiao Jing’s words, Zhan Nanging glanced at Zhan Qipei and pursed her lips.
"| better not. After all, my brother isn’t that easy to talk to. I'll just take a taxi."
If she got into the car, her brother would definitely think of her as a third wheel, and an especially bright one at
that.
Qiao Jing pursed her red lips, casting a faint glance at Zhan Qipei, and then spoke up:
"It's fine, he will take you home."
Zhan Qipei, who had initially wanted to suggest Zhan Nanging take a taxi herself, closed his mouth upon being
looked at by Qiao Jing like that.
Zhan Nanging noticed Zhan Qipei’s face, dark as coal, and couldn't help but snort with laughter.
"Hahaha, Qiao Jing, look at my brother's face, it’s so dark, almost like Bao Qingtian, how dare | ride in his car?
It's okay, you two go back on your own, I'll just take a taxi."
She felt her brother was totally henpecked; just now his face had turned that dark, and he didn’t say a word in
refusal, all because Qiao Jing had spoken.
Qiao Jing frowned and turned to look at Zhan Qipei, only to find that his complexion seemed no different than
usual.
She looked at Zhan Nanging with a puzzled face.
After witnessing Zhan Qipei’s swift change of expression, Zhan Nanging shrugged with sspeechlessness,
and made a comment.
"My brother changes his expressions so fast, it’s like he’s a professional face changer... Alright, Qiao Jing, you
and my brother should head back first; my ride is here," Zhan Nanging said, then headed toward another car.
Seeing this, Qiao Jing didn’t say anything more and could only watch Zhan Nanging leave.
Just as Zhan Nanging was about to get into the car, Chi Yuhang suddenly appeared beside her.
Before she could see what the two were doing, Zhan Qipei had already started the car.
Feeling utterly helpless, Qiao Jing glanced at Zhan Qipei, then, not bothering to deal with him any further, took
out her phone to send a message to Zhan Nanging to ask about the situation.
Right as she took out her phone, it beeped with a new message.
When she opened it, she found it was from Lin Yun, who hadn’t contacted her for quite stime.
This young troublemaker hadn’t sent her a message since finding out she was pregnant, and unlike before,
hadn’t been bothering her to chat about all sorts of things. She was relieved, thinking that Lin Yun had finally
grown up.
What he had sent this twere... two VIP tickets to the King’s Glory World Competition, followed by a text
message.
"I have a match tomorrow, bring that little brat along to watch," Lin Yun messaged.
Qiao Jing, realizing she had the day off and was indeed free to attend the world competition the next day, agreed
to go.
"Okay."
Since Zeng Xiangyang's academic results and other aspects had been good lately, she thought it would be nice
to take him to watch the competition as a reward.
Right after she replied to Lin Yun, a message from Zeng Xiangyang cthrough.
"Ah! Master! | didn’t get VIP tickets for tomorrow’s match! | must go to the scalpers again... Oh right, Master, can
you cwatch the finals withtomorrow? It's so rare for a world competition to be held in the Imperial
Capital, let's watch it together..."
After reading Zeng Xiangyang’s message, Qiao Jing simply took a photo and sent it to him.
"I'll pick you up tomorrow."

Qiao Jing inexplicably had a premonition and subconsciously moved the phone away from her ear before
answering.
As expected, as soon as she answered the call, Zeng Xiangyang’s excited voice cthrough.
"Master—! | love you! I="
Before he could finish, Zhan Qipei took Qiao Jing’s phone and interrupted him.
"Say that again?"
He thought Zeng Xiangyang was getting too bold, daring to confess his feelings to Qiao Jing?

But Zhan Qipei had no intention of returning the phone to Qiao Jing and just stared at the call screen.
The air was filled with an eerie silence.

Soon after, he received a message from Qiao Jing.
"I'll pick you up tomorrow, and we'll go together."
Zeng Xiangyang quickly replied with an okay and sent several emoticons of nodding heads before putting away
his phone.
Meanwhile, in another car.
Zhan Qipei was still driving with a dark expression on his face, deliberately wearing his "I am not pleased" for
Qiao Jing to notice.
Qiao Jing didn’t even need to look closely to notice, just feeling the atmosphere inside the car she knew, Zhan
Qipei was jealous.
She pulled a wry smile, somewhat speechless.
