Chapter 437 -426: Qiao Jing, She’s Completely Weak?
Qiao Jing pursed her red lips, detecting a hint of the privileged housewife’s bitterness in Zhan Qipei’s words.
But that term really shouldn’t apply to Zhan Qipei.
That scoundrel’s tone almost made her believe she was a woman who had created chaos at the beginning and abandoned everything at the end.
With her eyes closed, Qiao Jing explained,
“No, your sister just sent me a message, inviting me to have breakfast at Zhouhuan Restaurant tomorrow.”
Zhan Qipei uttered an “Oh,” the disappointment evident in his voice.
Qiao Jing waited a bit longer but still didn’t hear any signs of the man beside her leaving.
When she slowly opened her eyes, she saw Zhan Qipei very close to her, almost as if he were about to climb into bed with her.
And the nerve of this bastard, not showing any embarrassment at all!
Just parading around her room bare-chested!!
Zhan Qipei showed no signs of leaving. Just when she was about to push herself up from the bed, he made a move.
Zhan Qipei sat at the edge of the bed, looking like he was about to lie down.
Instantly, Qiao Jing saw through Zhan Qipei’s intentions and stretched out her hand, prepared to push the man off.
But she had forgotten for a moment that Zhan Qipei was shirtless, resulting in her hands coming into direct contact with his chest.
Even though Zhan Qipei had just gotten out of the shower, the heat from his skin felt warm to her palms.
A vein in Qiao Jing’s temple throbbed; she pushed Zhan Qipei a few more times, but the man remained immovable.
“Zhan Qipei, it’s the dead of winter and you are half-naked. Forget that, but instead of going back to your room, you come wandering into mine?”
After several futile attempts to push him, Qiao Jing quickly retracted her hands as if they’d touched something scalding.
Zhan Qipei slightly arched his long eyebrows, his dark eyes intently fixed on Qiao Jing, filled with emotions that were nearly spilling over.
“I had just finished showering and saw your message about not being home for breakfast tomorrow, so I came over. I thought you didn’t like what I prepared anymore.”
He had set a special notification tone for Qiao Jing’s messages, and the moment it chimed, he reached for his phone.
Seeing the message, his first thought was that she was tired of the breakfast he made and didn’t like it anymore.
Eventually, he ran over to Qiao Jing’s room without even bothering to put on his clothes.
Hearing Zhan Qipei’s words, Qiao Jing looked up at him, but the man’s robust chest was so prominent it was hard for her to ignore it.
Was he that anxious, running over here without even dressing?
She rolled her eyes in speechlessness and, to avoid looking at Zhan Qipei again, let her gaze fall on her own quilt.
As she watched, the drowsiness she had lost due to Zhan Qipei’s disturbance once again overcame her.
Her eyelids grew heavier, and she yawned deeply.
“It’s all the same what I eat, there’s nothing I particularly like or dislike, can you go back to your room now?”
Zhan Qipei’s lips tightened into a straight line, with no curvature, wanting to ask Qiao Jing another question.
But seeing how sleepy she was, he couldn’t bear to take up more of her time.
He stood up, and before leaving, he couldn’t resist voicing his dissatisfaction.
“Is what I make the same as what’s outside?”
He desperately wanted to know if he was special in Qiao Jing’s eyes.
He believed that the breakfast he made was definitely different from what was available outside.
After all, his was from her own home, while outside was just outside.
Qiao Jing, her head dropping bit by bit with sleepiness, managed to muster the energy to respond to Zhan Qipei after hearing his question.
“No, it’s not the same.”
The breakfast made outside was indeed different from what Zhan Qipei prepared.
After all, one was at home, the other outside.
In comparison, what’s made at home is a bit more sanitary.
That was Qiao Jing’s thought, but for Zhan Qipei, it meant something else entirely. His dark eyes brightened, and he left the woman’s bedroom, thoroughly satisfied.
The next morning.
After Qiao Jing got up, she glanced at the time and realized it was already past seven in the morning.
When she arrived in the living room, she found that Zhan Qipei had not yet left.
There was still a sandwich and fresh milk on the dining table.
Zhan Qipei was sitting on the living room sofa, and upon seeing Qiao Jing come out, he walked over to her.
“Have a little something to pad your stomach.”
Qiao Jing thought for a moment. The house was quite a distance from Zhouhuan Restaurant, and it would take some time to get there.
If she took the car on an empty stomach, given her usual constitution, she actually wouldn’t get motion sickness, but now that she was pregnant, she couldn’t be sure if she would suffer from it or not.
However, these were not the main concerns. The main point was that she could go to the Zhouhuan Restaurant on an empty stomach and eat there, but she couldn’t starve the three children inside her.
She agreed and finished the breakfast Zhan Qipei had prepared for her.
Zhan Qipei then stood beside Qiao Jing, and after watching her finish breakfast, he picked up the keys from the shoe cabinet.
“I’ll take you to Zhouhuan Restaurant.”
Qiao Jing shook her head.
“I can just take a taxi, you go to work.”
Zhan Qipei stubbornly followed behind Qiao Jing, his gaze lingering on her intensely.
“I’ll take you.”
Just as Qiao Jing was about to speak, her phone rang.
She had a good guess about who it might be and took out her phone to check.
Indeed, it was a message from Zhan Nanqing.
“Qiao Jing, have you left yet? We’re almost there, and I bet the line is going to extend into the street again.”
Without waiting for Qiao Jing to reply, Zhan Nanqing quickly sent a voice message.
As soon as she opened it, Su Manhan’s voice came through.
“Qiao Jing, is Qipei still at home? Have him drive you over. Oh, and make sure you eat something first; the queue is going to take a long time.”
Qiao Jing looked up at the man beside her and tapped on the keyboard to reply.
“Zhan Qipei is about to go to work, I can just take a taxi.”
The response from the other side came quickly, and another voice message popped up.
It was still Su Manhan’s voice.
“That won’t do! Have Qipei take you. It’s only work; being a little late won’t matter. He should take you first.”
Qiao Jing slightly helplessly touched her forehead and was about to reply when the man beside her made a move.
Zhan Qipei opened the front door, shaking the car keys in his hand.
“Let’s go.”
After hesitating for a moment, Qiao Jing decided not to waste any more time and got into Zhan Qipei’s car.
At the entrance of Zhouhuan Restaurant.
The moment Qiao Jing alighted from the car, she saw the mother and daughter pair not far off and turned back to look at Zhan Qipei.
“Thanks, I’ll go ahead.”

Zhan Qipei nodded and watched as Qiao Jing joined Su Manhan and her, only then did he start the car and leave.
Su Manhan glanced in the direction where Zhan Qipei had departed and spoke earnestly to Qiao Jing.
“Qiao Jing, from now on, no matter where you go, have Qipei take you. If he really doesn’t have the time, make a phone call, and have him send someone to pick you up. Don’t go back on your own, understand?
It’s too dangerous for a girl to be by herself! Plus, you’re so delicate, anyone could tell at a glance that you’re the type who can’t even truss a chicken, and they’d specifically target you.”
Upon hearing Su Manhan’s words, Zhan Nanqing’s eyes widened slightly, wondering if she had heard wrong, and promptly dug at her ears.
“Mom, really? Do you think Qiao Jing is that weak?”
Not capable of trussing a chicken?
She clearly remembered the last time Qiao Jing, on her own and unarmed, faced off against several thugs without falling behind.
The thugs even had weapons, and Qiao Jing still knocked them all to the ground.
If it weren’t for the fact that Qiao Jing was pregnant, she would probably have knocked them down even faster than last time, not even giving the other side a chance to strike.
