Chapter 463: Chapter 452 Zhan Qipei’s Jealous Rage
Zhan Qipei’s dark eyes deepened, his thin lips pressed into an icy line devoid of curvature, he pursued:
“Why is it inconvenient? Are you still not awake?”
Qiao Jing rubbed her temples.
“It’s not that, it’s just—”
Before she could finish, a knock on the door interrupted her.
Lu Zijin’s voice came from outside.
“Qiao Jing, are you up? I brought breakfast, and after eating, we can head back to the capital.”
Qiao Jing rose and walked slowly to the door, opening it.
“Okay, thank you. As for the patient, remind him to watch his diet. The hospital should be aware, but also have them get some medicine from Wonderful Hall; I’ll have someone select the right herbs.”
Right now, she needed to explain some post-surgery care instructions to Lu Zijin and didn’t have time to answer Zhan Qipei’s question.
Lu Zijin nodded, committing everything to memory.
“Alright, you have your breakfast first. Are you still tired? How do you feel?”
Qiao Jing pursed her red lips, intending to take the breakfast from Lu Zijin’s hands to keep him from getting tired just holding it, but he dodged.
She looked at Lu Zijin with puzzlement, not forgetting to answer his question.
“I rested for the night; I’m much better.”
When she came out after the surgery, she indeed wasn’t feeling well.
The difficulty of that surgery was so high that it drained a great deal of her energy, and combined with the length of the procedure, she was utterly exhausted.
If she weren’t pregnant it would be one thing, but now she had to think about the three little ones in her womb.
If she had to socialize with those doctors then, she might have collapsed on the spot from fatigue.
Fortunately, Lu Zijiao came to her rescue later.
Lu Zijiao, holding the breakfast, asked:
“Can I come in? The porridge is a bit hot; I’ll put it on the table for you.”
Qiao Jing nodded and stepped aside.
“Come in, I’ll book my flight back later.”
She didn’t want to trouble Lu Zijiao too much; she could book her own flight back to the capital. She had only taken his helicopter yesterday because the situation was urgent.
Now that the matter was resolved, she could return to the capital on her own and deal with other matters as well.
Qiao Jing hadn’t hung up on Zhan Qipei, so he could hear the two of them talking.
But Qiao Jing had placed the phone on the nightstand, creating a distance between the device and them, making it hard for Zhan Qipei to hear clearly.
Hearing their indistinct conversation, a vein pulsed on Zhan Qipei’s forehead, and his grip on the phone turned his knuckles white from the pressure.
“Qiao Jing! Are you with Lu Zijiao right now? What’s this about not coming in? Has he entered your room?!”
Even though it was merely about entering a room, such words, said in front of Qiao Jing by anyone, uncontrollably made him think of other implications.
Especially if it involved his romantic rival!
Early in the morning, Lu Zijiao undoubtedly had ulterior motives for running to his wife’s room!
And to think Lu Zijiao even had the nerve to tell him that he had given up on his wife?
If he had truly given up on Qiao Jing, why would he visit his wife’s room so early in the morning?
The temperature around Zhan Qipei plummeted rapidly, turning his office into what felt like an ice cellar.
After hearing Zhan Qipei’s words, Tang Yan silently lit a candle for Lu Zijiao in his mind.
His boss was genuinely angry now, but still!
Why did he have to get angry now, just ten minutes before the meeting was about to start? His boss might really head directly to the neighboring province now.
Things had gone awry!
Qiao Jing and Lu Zijiao were standing at the door, completely unaware of Zhan Qipei’s voice.
Lu Zijiao placed the bowl of porridge he was holding on the nightstand and took off the lid.
“It would be more convenient to take the helicopter back with me. You don’t need to book a flight; it’s too troublesome.”
Qiao Jing frowned slightly but still rejected Lu Zijiao.
“No need, I can just book a flight myself.”
She didn’t want to trouble anyone, and these were all things she could handle herself.
Lu Zijin did not insist further, but he reminded her with one more sentence.
“The flights from Cloud City back to the capital are tonight.”
Qiao Jing “hmm” in acknowledgment, indicating she understood.
She planned to rush back to the capital after breakfast because she still had unfinished work.
But if the flights were in the evening, that would be too late.
She was now considering whether to have someone arrange for a helicopter to come over.
However… having someone bring a helicopter from the capital would be more hassle than just taking Lu Zijin’s plane back.
Otherwise, the helicopter pilot would have to make two trips, and it would also waste a trip’s worth of fuel.
Zhan Qipei’s eyelids twitched heavily twice as he clenched the fist not holding his cell phone.
To ensure the other person could hear him clearly, he raised his voice.
“Lu Zijin! Get out of Qiao Jing’s room immediately!!”
He was going to Cloud City right this very moment; he couldn’t wait any longer.
He absolutely couldn’t stand Qiao Jing being with Lu Zijin.
Not even for a second!
That was his wife!!
Lu Zijin had been messing with the porridge when his phone suddenly blurted out that sentence, causing his stirring action to pause.
He was close to the phone and heard Zhan Qipei’s words clearly.
“I’m preparing her breakfast. I’ll leave afterward.”
Zhan Qipei had reached his limit and gritted his teeth:
“Don’t make me say it twice.”
After uttering those words, he glanced at Tang Yan beside him.
Tang Yan naturally understood Zhan Qipei’s meaning, but the meeting was about to start, and he couldn’t let the main character run off.
He feigned a puzzled look.
“Boss, what’s wrong?”
Zhan Qipei’s gaze turned icy as he looked at Tang Yan.
“Helicopter.”
He just wanted to grab Lu Zijin and mince him into a thousand pieces.
How dare he get near his wife?
Before Tang Yan could respond, his attention was completely captured by the woman’s voice on the other end of the phone.
Qiao Jing, upon seeing Lu Zijin speak, remembered that she hadn’t hung up her call with Zhan Qipei.
She quickly walked to the bedside table and picked up the phone.
“Why the yelling?”
She could faintly hear Zhan Qipei’s voice standing by the bed, which showed just how loud the man had been.
Zhan Qipei breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously as the person on the other end of the phone changed back to Qiao Jing.
“Why is Lu Zijin in your room? Tell him to leave now. Which hospital are you at? I’m coming to Cloud City now.”
He really couldn’t stand it anymore, not even a minute or a second longer; he only wanted to take Qiao Jing home!
Tang Yan, watching, was almost dying of impatience, hoping Miss Qiao could placate the boss, otherwise, the meeting would be ruined!
Qiao Jing furrowed her brows, and upon hearing Zhan Qipei’s tone, her face also darkened.
“No need to come here; I’ll return to the capital after I eat, hanging up now.”
In the end, she chose to ride back to the capital in Lu Zijin’s helicopter, which would also save on fuel.
Zhan Qipei quickly acknowledged her words, afraid that Qiao Jing would hang up the phone.
“Wait! If you don’t talk to me, I can find out myself and still come over.”
