Chapter 159: Chapter 152: Qiao Jing, She’s My Daughter-in-Law
As soon as Xu Mogian finished speaking, he saw Zhan Qipei staring at him with dangerously narrow eyes, eyes
that seemed to hold ice daggers poised to stab holes into Xu Mogian.
“What are you looking at? | said what | said, so what?”
“Mm-hmm,” Zhan Qipei clutched his chest, feigning agony, and he collapsed toward Qiao Jing.
Qiao Jing had no tto think, quickly reaching out to support Zhan Qipei, “I've already told you, you need to
heal properly, getting too emotional is not good for you.”
What the heck? Xu Mogian really wanted to beat Zhan Qipei to death. How shameless can you be?
“I am your husband, and he said those words in front of me. If | had no reaction, do you think | would still be a
man?”
Though Zhan Qipei spoke up, he reclined half his body into Qiao Jing’s arms with no intention of moving away.
Qiao Jing turned to Xu Mogian, “Stop provoking him here, he’s ill. Please leave, and we can talk about whatever
itis later.”
Xu Mogian “..."”
Xu Mogian felt so aggrieved he wanted to cry.
“Sister Jing, are you discarding me? | am your number four! How could you—"
“You lie down first, don’t move around, letcheck your leg again,” Qiao Jing said to Zhan Qipei.
Zhan Qipei glanced at his leg, “It won't becincurable in the future, right?”
“Don’t worry, with my medical skills, it won't be long before you could even participate in a track meet,” Qiao
Jing assured him.
“That's good, then I'm preserving your ‘happiness’.”
Qiao Jing rolled her eyes at Zhan Qipei, speechless. They were having a reasonable conversation one second,
and the next, he started joking around?
“I think you're perfectly fine,” Qiao Jing said as she pinched Zhan Qipei’s leg.
“Hiss—quite comfortable, you can continue.”
Qiao Jing “..."”
Xu Mogian’s mouth was agape wide enough to fit an egg, no, a goose egg.
These two, it wouldnt be amiss to say they were flirting and teasing each other.

It wasn’t Zhan Qipei that mattered here, but Qiao Jing’s attitude toward him seemed a bit more playful than
usual.
Not to mention, just the fact that Qiao Jing pinched Zhan Qipei’s thigh. This childish act of revenge, if he hadn't
witnessed it himself, he would never believe Qiao Jing could do such a thing.
The more he thought about it, the more uneasy Xu Mogian felt.
“Could it be... Sister Jing has really fallen for Zhan Qipei?”
No way!
Whether it was true or not, he had to intervene!
That evening.
When Su Manhan learned that Zhan Qipei was injured, she rushed over with Zhan Yao and Zhan Nanging.
“Qipei, how did you get injured so badly?” Su Manhan said, distressed, as she approached the bedside and saw
the bandages on Zhan Qipei.
Qiao Jing, carrying a tray of fruit, entered the hospital room and immediately saw Su Manhan giving her a sharp
look.
“Qiao Jing! It's all because of you! If it weren't for you, why would Qipei ever cto such a place? And how
would he get injured? You're nothing but a jinx! Luckily, Qipei divorced you. Otherwise, you would have killed him
one day!”
Zhan Nanging started by pulling Su Manhan slightly, “Mom, don’t say that, maybe there's more to the story?”
“What more could there be, she’s a curse, wherever she goes, disaster follows. Why did she have to cto
Lichuan County? If she hadn't chere, would your brother have been dragged into this mess? She—"
“Enough!” Zhan Qipei shouted abruptly.
The hospital room fell silent instantly.
Su Manhan stared at Zhan Qipei with disbelieving eyes, she hadn't expected Zhan Qipei to erupt in anger like
that.
Zhan Qipei threw off the blanket, intending to get out of bed.
“Qipei, let's talk things over slowly, your injuries are serious, don’t get out of bed,” Su Manhan said worriedly.
Zhan Qipei acted as if he didn’t hear her, with one leg out of the bed already and reaching for the other.
Su Manhan knew her son’s temperament well; when his stubbornness kicked in, no one could talk him out of it. It
wouldn't matter if it was her and Zhan Yao speaking; even if Old Master Zhan himself came, Zhan Qipei might
not listen to what he said.
Just then, a beautiful female voice suddenly cfrom the doorway.
“Don’t move,” Qiao Jing said, just three words, and Zhan Qipei immediately stopped his movements.
Qiao Jing stared at Zhan Qipei, who frowned and then drew the leg he had extended back onto the bed.
Su Manhan’s jaw nearly dropped at this scene.
Her son was this obedient? Was this even her son?
Qiao Jing approached the bedside, looking irked at Zhan Qipei, “I told you not to move, why can’t you take my
words to heart? Do you think my hard work in treating you is a joke?”
“Sorry, it won’t happen again,” Zhan Qipei apologized very straightforwardly.
Facing such a readily apologetic man, Qiao Jing didn’t know what else to criticize.
Zhan Qipei shifted his gaze from Qiao Jing and looked sternly at Su Manhan.
“Qiao Jing chere in response to
the nation’s call to participate in the
rescue. She risked her own life, mn
getting buried yadeyiKe debris to
FIT Se Even so, Qiao Jing
again joined the rescue efforts soon
after she woke up without full
recovery. To criticize someone like
her the way you did, | find it highly
inappropriate.” The content is on

Upon hearing such words from Zhan Qipei, Su Manhan might still dislike Qiao Jing, but as a human, she felt a
slight twinge of shdeep inside.
Of course, due to pride, she would absolutely not show that shame, and ended up just clenching her jaw, not
speaking, nor apologizing to Qiao Jing.
Zhan Nanging looked at Qiao Jing

Among those present, probably only she knew that Qiao Jing’s identity was not just Doctor Qiao from the
hospital, but also the top agricultural mogul of their empire.
With such a mighty status, she could have easily stayed comfortably in her research institute, shielded from wind
and rain, yet she chose to participate in this dangerous rescue mission and almost lost her life.
Such character was truly admirable!
After a lengthy silence, Zhan Qipei’s voice rose again.
“Also, | solemnly declare that Qiao
Jing is my wife, the woman |, Zhan
Qipei, swear 10 hihi Bor Gil hy life.
Herige, MISA want to hear those
words again, and you shouldn't speak

The words Zhan Qipei spoke resonated powerfully, echoing in the ears of Su Manhan and everyone present.
Qiao Jing stared at Zhan Qipei, stunned; the man’s expression was incredibly serious, as if every word he had
just said weighed a ton—comparable to Mount Tai!
Su Manhan'’s eyes were as wide as they could be, “Qipei, you, you mean—weren’t you two already divorced?
How come, how are you still—"
“I asked her to giveanother 100 days, and after much persuasion, she agreed,” he replied.
