Chapter 172: Chapter 165: The Lu Family Suspects Qiao Jing’s Identity
Lu Zijiao’s words once again shocked Father Lu and Mother Lu.
“Qiao Jing understands dicine too? Was it her who cured Old Master Zhan’s illness?!”
Although the Loo family’s dealings with the Zhan Family were normal, Father Lu and Mother Lu still roughly knew about Zhan Yuanshan’s condition.
He was seriously ill, and it wasn’t an exaggeration to say his life was in danger.
Moreover, the Zhan Family had searched the entire world for renowned doctors to cure Zhan Yuanshan’s illness, but there was no particularly significant result.
Yet Lu Zijiao had just said that Qiao Jing had cured Zhan Yuanshan.
How could this not be surprising?
Suddenly they rembered what Lu Zijin had said, that he wasn’t worthy of Qiao Jing.
So, was it true, like they analyzed, that Qiao Jing’s dical skills far surpassed their son’s?
Could it be?
Father Lu and Mother Lu were frightened by their own thoughts.
It wasn’t that they were boasting as biased onlookers, but with their son’s achievents in the dical field, he had long surpassed his peers. Back when Lu Zijin was still a student, he had already been favored by many renowned dical professors and could definitely be called a genius.
Qiao Jing, just barely over twenty years old, was nearly ten years younger than their son. If Qiao Jing’s dical prowess really surpassed their son’s, wouldn’t that an Qiao Jing was a genius among geniuses?
Everyone was looking at Lu Zijin, waiting for his response.
Lu Zijin’s eyebrows knotted, “I promised to keep this a secret for her, so I cannot say.”
Lu Zijiao sighed in disappointnt. He knew that Zhan Qipei not speaking, Lu Zijin not speaking, wasn’t because they regarded him as an outsider, but because of commitnts and various reasons, it was inconvenient to tell him.
“Actually, you don’t have to say it, I’ve guessed it already. So many famous doctors couldn’t cure him, but Qiao Jing could. It must be related to Divine Doctor Jing as in the legends.”
As soon as Lu Zijiao finished speaking, he saw a subtle change in Lu Zijin’s expression.
Lu Zijiao saw Lu Zijin’s reaction, and so did Father Lu and Mother Lu.
It seems this is true!
Lu Zijiao suddenly sat up straight, smiling cheekily at Lu Zijin, “Brother, I guessed right, didn’t I? Let guess again, if I’m not mistaken, Qiao Jing must be Divine Doctor Jing’s apprentice, right?”
Lu Zijin opened his mouth, eyebrows further tightening.
“Haha! Look at your reaction; I know I guessed right!” Lu Zijiao’s face showed a “I just knew it” expression.
Lu Zijin opened his mouth again, his facial expression becoming even more bizarre.
“So Qiao Jing is Divine Doctor Jing’s apprentice,” Father Lu said.
“No wonder she could cure Old Master Zhan’s illness, and no wonder you said you weren’t worthy of Qiao Jing, Zijin,” Mother Lu said, as if suddenly enlightened.
Lu Zijin looked at the three who had all misunderstood, unsure how to explain.
“She isn’t Divine Doctor Jing’s apprentice,” he said.
“Bro, we all know now, you want to keep this secret for Qiao Jing. Don’t worry, we won’t tell anyone,” Lu Zijiao assured, patting his chest.
Lu Zijin, troubled, “She really isn’t.”
“Alright, alright, she isn’t. From today, no, starting now, Mom and Dad and I will forget this matter. You can rest easy, I absolutely won’t ntion it,” Lu Zijiao assured repeatedly.
Father Lu and Mother Lu chid in, “We won’t tell either.”
Lu Zijin “…”
Well, it seems this cannot be explained.
anwhile, Qiao Jing had also received a ssage from Lu Zijiao.
“That’s right, Young Master Zhan has had this problem ever since he was young. I’m his brother who grew up with him, we even bathed together, and he still complained about .”
Zijiao: “??? Why are you asking this all of a sudden?”
“Has Young Master Zhan started to despise you? No way, right?”
“Well, that would be perfect, if he despises you, my brother definitely won’t. Just now my dad and mom also ntioned that they really like you, why don’t you co over to our house? I guarantee, once you’re at our place, there definitely won’t be any mother-in-law and daughter-in-law conflicts.”
Zijiao kept sending ssages non-stop.
Qipei happened to see this last ssage when he ca over.
Originally, Qipei hadn’t planned on snooping around, mainly because Zijiao kept sending one ssage after another nonstop, which was making him quite unhappy.
My wife, you just can’t stop chatting, can you?
Thinking this, Qipei sent Zijiao an emoji of a knife dripping with blood.
Zijiao “…”
After sending the ssage, Qipei put down his phone and looked towards Qiao Jing, “Now do you believe what I told you?”
Qiao Jing frowned, looking at the man’s body. As a doctor, she had perford countless surgeries both big and small, but she had never bathed a man before.
Not correct.
There was one.
“Just scrubbing the back, I have scrubbed backs for others before.”
Qipei’s eyes narrowed dangerously.
“Who? n or won?”
“Both,” Qiao Jing answered truthfully.
A sinister air seeped up from the floor, quickly spreading throughout the room.
Qiao Jing, seeing Qipei full of nacing air, thought to herself how quickly he could change moods, faster than the weather.
Qipei pressed his lips tightly together, struggling to contain the anger that was on the verge of erupting, and said through clenched teeth, “As for the past, I had no authority or ability to question it. But now, you’re my wife. You can only scrub the back for alone!”
What could he do? Who let him et Qiao Jing so late?
“Is it really necessary?” Qiao Jing was rendered speechless.
Qipei’s face was filled with a cold harshness, “Not necessary? You think I don’t care because I’m not your man! Qiao Jing, I’m serious!”
Qipei discarded his crutches and limped towards Qiao Jing, pinning her directly against the wall.
“You’re crazy!” Qiao Jing looked at Qipei’s leg. Although the man’s leg had recovered a bit over these days of recuperation, it wasn’t ti to throw away the crutches yet.
Qipei placed his hands on either side of Qiao Jing’s head, using them for support while firmly imprisoning her in his territory.
“Yes, I’m crazy. This sort of thing would drive any man mad.”
Even though all those incidents had happened before he t her, just the thought of Qiao Jing scrubbing the backs of other n could drive him into a frenzy.
She was his, entirely his! He absolutely wouldn’t allow anyone else a touch!
Qiao Jing raised her eyes to et the man’s, sharp as an eagle’s, domineering and crazed.
“Promise now, from now on you won’t scrub the back of any other man, only mine,” Qipei looked deep into Qiao Jing’s eyes, his gaze so intense, as if he wanted to engrave her into his bones.
Qiao Jing knitted her brows, her eyes and brows revealing a hint of annoyance.
Ever since she was a child, she disliked it when people spoke to her in a commanding tone, and she hated being forced to do things even more. If it weren’t for the fact that Qipei had once saved her life, she wouldn’t have agreed to help him scrub his back at all.
“Qipei, you have no right to order around. We’re just in a contractual relationship, agreed for 100 days, after which we’ll go our separate ways. We—”
Qiao Jing hadn’t finished speaking when the man’s thin lips sealed hers.
