Chapter 1101: Chapter 1089: Zhan Qipei Goes Mad Searching for Qiao Jing Everywhere
Qiao Jing returned to the small villa in the middle of the night.
From a distance, looking towards the window of the room, the small villa was completely dark, with no lights on.
Qiao Jing thought, at this ti, the family should be asleep.
However, as she stepped closer to the door, the night light at the entrance suddenly lit up.
With the help of the light, Qiao Jing realized that Wu Xirui was standing on the doorstep.
He was wearing a long black coat, hands in his pockets, with a slightly pale face from the cold, seeming to have been standing outside for a while.
This scene made Qiao Jing pause, her footsteps halting slightly.
At the sa ti, blurred images flickered in her mind.
It seed like there was a man who often stood under the streetlight waiting for her…
Seeing Qiao Jing suddenly stop, Wu Xirui’s face showed so confusion.
He stepped forward and found Qiao Jing seed lost in thought.
“What’s the matter? What are you daydreaming about?”
Wu Xirui said, waving his hand in front of Qiao Jing’s eyes, teasing, “Could it be that I’m so handso that you’ve been dazzled by ?”
The sound snapped Qiao Jing back to reality. She looked at Wu Xirui with so exasperation, “Why aren’t you sleeping in the middle of the night? What are you doing here?”
Wu Xirui raised his eyebrows slightly, speaking in an almost expected tone, “What else could I be doing? Of course, I’m waiting for you!”
As soon as he said this, another voice faintly echoed in Qiao Jing’s ears.
‘I’m waiting for you to co ho…’
This voice was deep and magnetic, full of affection and soothing.
Qiao Jing couldn’t help but lose focus again, the handso face of Zhan Qipei gradually surfacing in her mind.
Realizing what she was thinking, Qiao Jing furrowed her brows almost imperceptibly.
It was strange, why did she suddenly associate with him?
Was it because of what happened earlier?
The next second, Qiao Jing shook her head vigorously, not allowing herself to dwell on the mory of being forcefully kissed by that man.
Noticing sothing unusual about her, Wu Xirui asked with concern, “Are you okay? Are you feeling uncomfortable sowhere? I’ve told you before that you shouldn’t have been discharged so quickly, you should rest a few more days. Want to take you to the hospital now?”
“No need, my health is fine. Don’t think I’m so weak.”
After rejecting Wu Xirui’s proposal, Qiao Jing paused, then added, “Besides, I know a bit about dicine myself; I’m aware of my condition.”
Wu Xirui suspiciously glanced at her, “If you’re not feeling unwell, then what’s wrong with you? You’ve been out of it since a little while ago.”
After a few seconds of silence, Qiao Jing ambiguously replied, “Probably because it’s too late, and I’m a bit sleepy and tired.”
Although Wu Xirui found it strange, hearing Qiao Jing’s explanation, he didn’t think much further and just said, “Let’s go inside then.”
“Alright.” Qiao Jing responded faintly, taking the lead into the house.
Wu Xirui quickly followed behind.
Once inside, Wu Xirui suddenly rembered sothing, quickly speeding up to catch up with Qiao Jing, and grinned playfully, “The weather’s gotten quite cold these days, why don’t I warm up your bed for you by lying in it first, so it won’t be too cold when you sleep, preventing a cold, which wouldn’t be good.”
Listening to such a pretentious comnt, Qiao Jing rolled her eyes at Wu Xirui, her tone also becoming serious.
“Although you saved last ti, for which I’m grateful, don’t get ahead of yourself and keep saying these frivolous things.”
“If you want to stay here, maintain a bit of distance, and at least be proper in your behavior. Otherwise, pack your things and move out, find sowhere else to live.”
With that said, Qiao Jing ignored Wu Xirui, heading straight to her room.
Watching her walk away without looking back, Wu Xirui’s expression turned gloomy, muttering softly, “I really don’t get it, why is it so hard to please her? It’s like water off a duck’s back! And I wonder, how did Zhan Qipei manage to win her over back then?”
“Sigh, too bad I can’t ask Zhan Qipei, otherwise I’d love to learn a thing or two from him!”
After talking to himself for a while, Wu Xirui also returned to his room…
The next morning, at the Zhan Family’s private estate.
In a certain room on the second floor, Zhan Qipei gradually awoke from his slumber.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he subconsciously called out, “Qiao Jing—”
Following this, he glanced around, searching for the figure he’s been thinking about day and night.
However, the room was empty, with no one else present but him.
Zhan Qipei’s gaze dimd, and his deanor instantly turned forlorn.
So, everything that happened last night was just a dream?
Hence, after waking from the dream, she left him again, disappearing…
Feeling desolate for a while, Zhan Qipei forced himself up, preparing to get out of bed.
But at that mont, he keenly noticed two long strands of hair on the bed, unmistakably a woman’s.
Zhan Qipei narrowed his brows slightly, staring at those long strands, a hint of doubt arising in his mind.
How could there be a woman’s hair on his bed?
Pondering over it, Zhan Qipei unconsciously pressed his thin lips.
Then, suddenly, a slight tingle of pain ca from his lips.
Zhan Qipei froze, abruptly recalling the scene from last night. Despite having hazy mories due to intoxication, it seed he was indeed bitten at that ti.
Thinking of this, Zhan Qipei hurriedly jumped out of bed, rushing to the mirror.
He clearly saw that his lower lip had indeed been bitten, leaving a mark.
Now, a faint scab had ford over it.
This proved that last night’s incident was real, not a fleeting dream!
At that mont, a surge of emotion was coursing wildly through Zhan Qipei’s heart.
He imdiately took out his phone to contact Tang Yan, instructing him to mobilize people for a thorough search of the estate and to review yesterday’s surveillance footage.
Regardless, he must find the woman who was with him yesterday.
He believed that woman must be Qiao Jing!
Tang Yan, receiving the command, took no ti in bringing people over, making a large-scale search throughout the estate.
The commotion was so significant that Zhan Nanjing and Su Manhan were alerted.
A group of people, confused, upon seeing Zhan Qipei, asked what was going on.
Zhan Qipei was quite agitated, his voice carrying a tremor even he hadn’t noticed.
“Last night I was drinking on the second-floor corridor sofa, and got drank too much. A woman helped back to my room, it must’ve been Qiao Jing, she’s returned!”
Upon hearing this, both Zhan Nanjing and Su Manhan were stunned.
Monts later, Zhan Nanjing first regained his composure, with a doubtful look on his face, “How is that possible? If it really was my sister-in-law, why would she leave again after coming back?”
