Chapter 518: Chapter 507: Qiao Jing Gains a New Fangirl
This expression, identical to the one she had while eating melons, suggested there were melons involved in this hotel too?
The waiter, questioned by the person involved, felt inexplicably guilty.
“Nothing, Miss Zhan. If there’s nothing else, I’ll be going now.”
Zhan Nanqing watched the waiter with a look of utter confusion and left with her things.
She had actually thought there was some incredible gossip that flattered her.
Meanwhile, in the hotel lobby.
Qiao Jing and Zhan Qipei had just stepped out of the elevator and ran into someone coming from another elevator.
It was Lu Yingying and her boyfriend.
Qiao Jing glanced indifferently at Lu Yingying before withdrawing her gaze and continuing on her way.
Seeing Qiao Jing, Lu Yingying bit her lip and quickened her step to follow.
When she heard this name, Qiao Jing paused before realizing that it was the new name Zhan Nanqing had just given her.
Zhan Qipei, seeing Qiao Jing stop, wore a look of confusion as he turned to the woman.
Lu Yingying, pulling her boyfriend, hurried to the front of Qiao Jing.
“Qiao Linting, wait! I have some questions for you.”
When she heard Zhan Nanqing arriving with her boyfriend, she felt disdainful and even thought that the boyfriend couldn’t possibly match up to her own.
However, the moment she saw Qiao Linting’s face, her heart inexplicably raced.
After the other party had left, she found herself unexpectedly reluctant to part with him.
She was certain that she had fallen in love with Qiao Linting at first sight.
The man standing next to Lu Yingying was completely baffled.
“Yingying? What do you want to ask him? What’s there to talk to him about??”
Lu Yingying frowned and pushed him away.
“You go ahead, I have something to deal with. I’ll find you later.”
The man, confused, had no choice but to leave the lobby first.
Qiao Jing still wasn’t used to the glasses on her nose, and she pushed them up again, lowering her voice.
Given that Lu Yingying was not amicable toward Zhan Nanqing and since the two were mortal enemies, and fearing more communication with these people might expose her, she really did not want to interact with them any further.
More so, since Zhan Nanqing would be coming down soon, and if she saw them chatting, she probably would get angry.
After all, her current identity was as Zhan Nanqing’s boyfriend.
Seeing Qiao Jing’s gesture made Lu Yingying take a deep breath, and her heart beat even faster.
“Could you possibly give me your contact information? I have some questions that aren’t convenient to discuss face-to-face.”
No sooner had she finished speaking than she felt a cold gaze upon her.
Curious, Lu Yingying followed the gaze and soon met the eyes of Zhan Qipei, who was standing behind Qiao Jing.
She furrowed her brows, feeling a chill down her spine.
How come this man looked somewhat familiar?
Mostly, why was he looking at her like that?
Had she provoked him in some way?
Although this man was also good-looking, she still preferred Qiao Linting.
Zhan Qipei’s lips were tightly drawn in a rigid line with no curve, and his facial contours tensed, he answered on behalf of Qiao Jing first.
He now understood fully, Qiao Jing really was loved by both men and women.
Moreover, this woman was asking him for his wife’s contact information right in front of him?!
Lu Yingying cast an unhappy glance at Zhan Qipei and was about to retort sharply when she suddenly recognized him. Her tone immediately softened, and her gaze shifted to Qiao Jing.
No wonder the man standing behind Qiao Linting seemed familiar. He was the rarely seen Zhan Qipei.
Upon hearing Lu Yingying’s words, Qiao Jing furrowed his brows and also refused her.
Lu Yingying frowned, stepped forward a few steps, and closed the distance to Qiao Jing, finding a random excuse.
“Why can’t I? I just wanted to add you as a friend to ask a few questions about Nanqing.”
Right then, Zhan Nanqing came out of the elevator. Hearing Lu Yingying’s words, she quickly walked over to Qiao Jing and affectionately linked her arm with his.
“If you have any questions, you can ask me directly. Why ask my boyfriend?”
She never imagined Lu Yingying would go after Qiao Jing.
Qiao Jing’s male attire really attracted attention!
Lu Yingying’s expression turned unpleasant, her gaze still tightly following Qiao Jing.
“Nanqing, I just wanted to get to know him, to be friends. You know my boyfriend, don’t you?”
Why did Zhan Nanqing have to come over at this very moment?
If she didn’t take the opportunity to get to know Qiao Linting today, she might not have the chance to meet him in the future.
So she had to find an opportunity to get acquainted with Qiao Linting—after all, those two might not always be together, and maybe she would still have a chance.
Zhan Nanqing directly rolled her eyes in front of Lu Yingying.
“You think I want to know your boyfriend? You’re the one posting about him all the time, and he just happens to be in this circle in the capital. It’s hard not to know him. Just because I know your boyfriend doesn’t mean you can forcibly get to know mine. Is it okay if I’m a little possessive?”
Lu Yingying was left speechless by Zhan Nanqing’s retort, only managing to stare intently at Qiao Jing’s face.
Hearing Zhan Nanqing repeatedly mention “boyfriend,” Zhan Qipei had a dark expression that looked almost like it could drip with disdain, his cold gaze fell on the two women standing next to Qiao Jing.
Now, one of them was linking arms with his wife, and the other was asking for his wife’s contact information.
And he was being squeezed out from beside Qiao Jing?
Zhan Nanqing shivered and looked back at Zhan Qipei, continuously signaling to him.
They absolutely couldn’t give themselves away in front of Lu Yingying!
If they did, she would lose all her dignity.
Zhan Qipei’s expression remained very stern as he prepared to step forward and pull Qiao Jing back to his side.
Qiao Jing, knowing Zhan Qipei’s character, looked back at him before he could approach and mouthed two words.
She had held on until now and couldn’t let it all go to waste.
Zhan Qipei’s brows were so tightly knit they could trap a fly, yet he had to halt his steps.
If he let these two women get any closer to Qiao Jing, he worried his wife might be led astray.
To put it precisely, turned.
Qiao Jing looked at the speechless Lu Yingying and the exasperated Zhan Nanqing, then nodded her head.
“Yeah, let’s go first.”
Seeing this, Lu Yingying was about to follow them but was stopped by Zhan Nanqing, who discerned her intentions.
As Zhan Nanqing walked away, she kept looking back at Lu Yingying and, to aggravate her, hugged Qiao Jing and rubbed against him.
“Lu Yingying, stop harboring thoughts about my boyfriend.”
She had brought Qiao Jing here to Keep reading on NovelHub - where stories come alive!
Now, Qiao Jing was her boyfriend!
Lu Yingying’s face grew even more unsightly, and she stopped in her tracks, not following them anymore.
Only then did Zhan Nanqing turn around, satisfied, and snorted.
