The next day.
Qiao Jing was sitting on the sofa eating fruit when she received a call from Lin Xiuxiang.
Lin Xiuxiang had already learned from Tang Yan that Third Miss Qiao, Qiao Jing, was actually the Qiao Jing they had been looking for all along.
Upon hearing this news, Lin Xiuxiang was extrely excited and imdiately called Qiao Jing, chatting for several hours.
Of course, most of the ti was Lin Xiuxiang talking and Qiao Jing listening.
Once the call connected, Lin Xiuxiang’s gentle voice ca through the receiver.
"Qiao Jing, my birthday is in a few days. You must co by then, okay? Before, no matter whose birthday it was, the other would always be there. Since you went missing, you’ve been absent for several years. Now that you’re finally back, you can’t miss it this year."
After listening to Lin Xiuxiang’s words, Qiao Jing curled her lips into a small smile and said lightly, "Don’t worry, I’ll definitely be there."
In the beginning, she felt a sense of instant familiarity when she first t Lin Xiuxiang.
It turns out it wasn’t her imagination, but because she was Qiao Jing and had been close friends with Lin Xiuxiang for many years, so even if she lost her mory, she still felt a strong sense of familiarity.
After that, the two chatted for a while longer until Lin Xiuxiang’s phone was about to run out of battery, and then they ended the call.
After putting away her phone, Qiao Jing thought for a mont, then got up and went out.
Since she was going to celebrate Lin Xiuxiang’s birthday, she had to prepare a birthday gift in advance!
Qiao Jing intended to visit the shopping center to see if she could find a suitable gift.
Unexpectedly, not long after she left the house, she ran into Jiang Zihong, who hadn’t shown up for a while, on the way.
Jiang Zihong was accompanied by an assistant.
When he recognized Qiao Jing, Jiang Zihong was initially stunned, and then his eyes filled with astonishnt and infatuation.
"Qiao Jing! Your face... your face is healed!!"
Qiao Jing glanced at Jiang Zihong expressionlessly, only thinking that next ti she had to check the almanac before going out to avoid encounters with such annoying pests.
"I didn’t expect that I would return to Nandu, and your face would be healed! This is really a surprise for !"
Jiang Zihong looked excited, with his gaze fixed intently on Qiao Jing’s exquisitely beautiful face.
It was this face that captivated him at first sight!
He originally thought he would get her first and then heal her face, but unexpectedly, in his absence, her face had already recovered!
Qiao Jing couldn’t be bothered to deal with Jiang Zihong, coldly spitting out, "A good dog doesn’t block the way, step aside!"
"Treating your future husband with such an attitude won’t do, sooner or later we’ll be a couple. Be nicer to , and I..."
Jiang Zihong started to say but was cut off coldly by Qiao Jing, "Was your head squeezed by a door? Or kicked by a donkey? Or do you not have a brain at all? If you want to dream, go ho and do it, stop being an eyesore to !"
Qiao Jing’s sharp words made Jiang Zihong’s face turn several shades darker.
He gritted his teeth and sinisterly said, "I’ll propose to your family again. You know the gap between the Qiao family and the Jiang family, don’t make futile struggles. As long as you marry obediently, you won’t be mistreated!"
Impatience flickered across Qiao Jing’s eyes, her voice cold and emotionless, "Are you done? If so, scram!"
Her disdainful attitude left Jiang Zihong infuriated.
Just as Jiang Zihong was about to continue pestering her, his assistant stepped up to remind, "Young Master Jiang, it’s almost ti for Zhan Corporation’s open bidding, we need to hurry or we might be late."
With the assistant’s reminder, Jiang Zihong rembered the matter at hand.
He arrogantly bragged to Qiao Jing, "You heard that, right? I’m going to participate in Zhan Corporation’s open bidding. Don’t be surprised, we’re determined to win this bid!"
"By that ti, the Jiang family’s developnt will reach new heights, joining the ranks of the top noble families in the capital is just around the corner. You won’t lose out by marrying !"
While saying these words, Jiang Zihong appeared confident, as if he knew so inside information, believing for sure he would win the bid.
Before leaving with his assistant, Jiang Zihong left Qiao Jing with these self-assured words, "Get ready to enter the Jiang family’s threshold!"
Qiao Jing rolled her eyes outright, speechless to the extre.
To be honest, she still couldn’t understand where Jiang Zihong’s confidence ca from?
Could it be inherited from the Jiang family?
No sooner had Jiang Zihong left than Qiao Jing’s phone rang.
She took it out and saw that it was Zhan Qipei calling.
After pressing answer, Qiao Jing asked, "What’s up? Do you need sothing?"
Zhan Qipei’s magnetic and charming voice ca through the phone, "Yes, there’s sothing. Could you co over to the company? I’ll be waiting for you."
Qiao Jing was slightly taken aback, feeling a little suspicious.
This man, why was he asking her to go to Zhan Corporation for no reason?
She asked in confusion, "What is it?"
At this mont, Zhan Qipei was sitting at his desk, holding the phone and talking to Qiao Jing.
Hearing Qiao Jing’s question, he paused for a couple of seconds and ca up with a reason on the spot, "Isn’t there a collaboration between Zhan and Qiao Family Company? There are so details that need discussing, so it would be better to talk face-to-face."
In fact, he just suddenly wanted to see her.
But he knew if he spoke the truth, considering his wife’s personality, she might not agree to co over.
So he made up a reason that seed reasonable enough!
"Isn’t Zhan Corporation having an open bid today? Do you really have ti for other projects?" Qiao Jing’s tone carried a hint of suspicion.
Zhan Qipei replied calmly, "It’s just one bid, it’s not that pressing."
Qiao Jing pursed her lips, holding a slight doubt towards what the man said.
However, as she didn’t have any pressing matters at the mont, there was no harm in going.
After all, the collaborative project with Zhan Corporation was greatly beneficial to the Qiao Family Company’s developnt!
After ending the call, Qiao Jing headed straight to Zhan Corporation.
The receptionist, having been instructed earlier, imdiately greeted Qiao Jing respectfully upon seeing her approach, "Young Madam, President Zhan instructed to take you upstairs. Please follow ."
Hearing the title of Young Madam, Qiao Jing felt a bit strange and was not used to it at all.
Yet she didn’t show this discomfort, simply nodding lightly and following the receptionist.
The staff led Qiao Jing straight to the VIP elevator at Zhan Corporation.
As the two entered the elevator, and just as the elevator doors were about to close, a hand suddenly reached out and forcibly held them open.
Next, Jiang Zihong and his assistant squeezed in.
Upon seeing Qiao Jing, Jiang Zihong was montarily stunned, "Qiao Jing? What are you doing here?"
After asking this, without waiting for Qiao Jing to respond, Jiang Zihong suddenly acted as if he had an epiphany and said to himself, "Oh! I get it! You’re playing hard to get with !"
"Earlier, you were all aloof and cool towards , but look, now you’re following here. Turns out you’re just a typical case of saying one thing and aning another!"
"Seems like you still have feelings for after all!"
