Chapter 529: Chapter 518: Yan Ya Plans to Continue Searching for Divine Doctor Jing
Zhan Nanqing watched Xu Moqian being deeply affected and felt imnsely satisfied, packing her bag and leaving.
Inside the Nantai Apartnt.
After returning ho, Qiao Jing continuously monitored the progress at the research institute online.
Zhan Qipei poured a cup of hot water and placed it in front of Qiao Jing, then took a bottle of stomach dicine from the dicine cabinet at ho and put it on the table.
“From now on, rember to carry stomach dicine with you, you absolutely must not skip als. I’ll have Nanqing help keep an eye on you.”
He dared not imagine if there was a next ti and he was in a eting and could not reach Qiao Jing’s side promptly.
In that case, he would bla himself for a lifeti.
Seeing that large bottle of stomach dicine, Qiao Jing felt a bit of a headache and rubbed her temples.
“Zhan Qipei, I already said I would eat on ti.”
She did not usually carry a bag when going out, and it might be a bit difficult for her to put such a large bottle of stomach dicine in her pocket.
Moreover, her pockets would bulge, which would not only look strange to passersby, but it would also be inconvenient for her to walk.
Zhan Qipei pursed his thin lips and took a smaller strip of stomach dicine from the box and placed it on the table, his lips parting slightly.
“If sothing cos up, call on your phone. During etings, your calls are the only ones I can hear.”
After hearing Zhan Qipei’s words, a hint of surprise flashed in Qiao Jing’s eyes.
What the man implied was that he had set a special ringtone just for her calls and ssages.
She occupied a very important part in Zhan Qipei’s heart…
Could she really bear such a heavy emotion?
A ringtone interrupted Qiao Jing’s thoughts.
Zhan Qipei glanced at the caller, realized it was Su Manhan, and pressed ‘answer’ before switching to speaker mode.
“Mom, what’s up?”
The voice of Su Manhan ca through from the other end of the phone.
“I’m currently at your doorstep. I know you’re not ho, so I called. What’s the door code? I brought so things for nourishing the body.”
Zhan Qipei stood up, walked to the entrance, and helped Su Manhan open the door.
When Su Manhan saw Zhan Qipei, she paused, then hung up the phone.
“Eh? Aren’t you supposed to be at work right now?”
As Su Manhan spoke, she carried a delicately wrapped gift bag inside, noticing Qiao Jing’s shoes at the entrance.
“Is Qiao Jing ho as well?”
Zhan Qipei nodded, taking the gift bag from Su Manhan’s hand.
“Mom, let take it.”
Su Manhan stuffed the bag into Zhan Qipei’s hands.
“Perfect, I’ll go have a chat with Qiao Jing.”
It had been several days since she last saw Qiao Jing, and now she was worried that her daughter-in-law might have gotten thinner from not eating.
When Qiao Jing saw that Su Manhan had arrived, she turned off her phone, preparing to pour her a glass of water.
Su Manhan imdiately stopped her.
“Hey hey hey! Why are you being so formal with ? Why are you pouring water for ? I’m just here to see you.”
A faint smile appeared on Qiao Jing’s face as she sat back down on the sofa.
“Good afternoon, Madam Zhan.”
Suddenly, she rembered the stomach dicine on the table, and promptly put everything into the drawer.
If Su Manhan knew about her stomach aches and fainting due to not eating, she would probably be nagged for a long ti.
Su Manhan noticed Qiao Jing’s action and asked nervously:
“Was that dicine just now? Are you sick?”
Qiao Jing glanced at the drawer and pursed her red lips.
“No, those were just vitamin tablets.”
Given Su Manhan’s current tense state, her choice just now was the right one.
Only then did Su Manhan breathe a sigh of relief and took Qiao Jing’s hand, ready to chat about daily life, when a flash of red caught her eye.
It took her a mont to realize, and once she recognized what the mark was, her eyes widened, and she imdiately began to glow.
“Qiao Jing, your neck….”
Ahhh—her son had finally made it!
Could she be holding her grandson very soon?!!
Qiao Jing was startled for a mont and frowned, pulling at her own collar as she earnestly said,
“Madam Zhan, you misunderstand, nothing happened.”
She thought she would be resting at ho today and not eting anyone else, so she wore sothing more loose and comfortable, just like usual.
But Su Manhan’s visit was unexpected.
The smile on Su Manhan’s face suddenly froze, and she blinked,
“Ah? Nothing happened?”
Qiao Jing nodded earnestly.
“Yes, don’t misunderstand.”
She didn’t want Su Manhan to think that sothing had happened between her and Zhan Qipei that might lead to pregnancy issues later.
After all, if Su Manhan thought sothing had happened between her and Zhan Qipei, she would definitely be convinced that Qiao Jing would get pregnant.
Seeing how serious Qiao Jing was, Su Manhan sighed and a look of regret crossed her face.
She actually wished sothing had happened between the two, so she could embrace a grandson sooner.
When she saw that mark, she was overjoyed, thinking it was just the young couple being shy.
But seeing Qiao Jing’s serious expression, she finally confird that truly nothing had happened between them.
It was a false happiness; when would her son finally let her hold her grandson?
Now, even if the young couple wasn’t in a hurry, it was killing her, their mother.
Seeing how upset Su Manhan was, Qiao Jing felt sowhat guilty and began to change the subject.
“Madam Zhan, what did you bring today?”
After a good ten or so seconds, Su Manhan finally snapped out of her disappointnt and took Qiao Jing’s hand to the kitchen.
Zhan Qipei was currently arranging the things Su Manhan had brought over and kept working even as they approached.
“Mom, are all these things for Qiao Jing to drink?”
Su Manhan shook her head and took out a few packets from among the many bags.
“These are for you.”
She pondered seriously for a while; after being alone together for so long, surely so sparks must have flown between them.
Nothing this ti didn’t an nothing before.
After all, the last ti she had personally seen her son pinning Qiao Jing on the bed, and yet till now, there was still no sign of Qiao Jing being pregnant.
She was now even more convinced that the problem lay with her son’s health. It seed she still needed to continue searching for the rumored Divine Doctor Jing for help.
Actually, she had been searching for Divine Doctor Jing for several months already but hadn’t been able to find this mysterious healer. After Qiao Jing arrived, she had put the matter on hold for a while.
Qiao Jing glanced at the herbs in those bags and imdiately recognized their purpose, slightly twitching the corner of her mouth.
“Madam Zhan, drinking all these at the sa ti could cause ‘fire’ buildup.”
She could tell, in the matter of supplenting Zhan Qipei’s kidneys, Su Manhan was indeed painstaking, having purchased so many kidney-nourishing herbs.
But she couldn’t clarify for Zhan Qipei that his body truly had no issues.
Zhan Qipei heard the implication in Qiao Jing’s words and sighed helplessly.
“Mom, you really don’t need to buy all these for .”
