Pregnant After Healing the Alpha

Chapter 172: Chapter 165: The Lu Family Suspects Qiao Jing’s Identity
 

Lu Zijiao’s words once again shocked Father Lu and Mother Lu.

“Qiao Jing understands medicine too? Was it her who cured Old Master Zhan’s illness?!”

Although the Loo family’s dealings with the Zhan Family were normal, Father Lu and Mother Lu still roughly knew about Zhan Yuanshan’s condition.

He was seriously ill, and it wasn’t an exaggeration to say his life was in danger.

Moreover, the Zhan Family had searched the entire world for renowned doctors to cure Zhan Yuanshan’s illness, but there was no particularly significant result.

Yet Lu Zijiao had just said that Qiao Jing had cured Zhan Yuanshan.

How could this not be surprising?

Suddenly they remembered what Lu Zijin had said, that he wasn’t worthy of Qiao Jing.

So, was it true, like they analyzed, that Qiao Jing’s medical skills far surpassed their son’s?

Could it be?

Father Lu and Mother Lu were frightened by their own thoughts.

It wasn’t that they were boasting as biased onlookers, but with their son’s achievements in the medical field, he had long surpassed his peers. Back when Lu Zijin was still a student, he had already been favored by many renowned medical professors and could definitely be called a genius.

Qiao Jing, just barely over twenty years old, was nearly ten years younger than their son. If Qiao Jing’s medical prowess really surpassed their son’s, wouldn’t that mean Qiao Jing was a genius among geniuses?

Everyone was looking at Lu Zijin, waiting for his response.

Lu Zijin’s eyebrows knotted, “I promised to keep this a secret for her, so I cannot say.”

Lu Zijiao sighed in disappointment. He knew that Zhan Qipei not speaking, Lu Zijin not speaking, wasn’t because they regarded him as an outsider, but because of commitments and various reasons, it was inconvenient to tell him.

“Actually, you don’t have to say it, I’ve guessed it already. So many famous doctors couldn’t cure him, but Qiao Jing could. It must be related to Divine Doctor Jing as in the legends.”

As soon as Lu Zijiao finished speaking, he saw a subtle change in Lu Zijin’s expression.

Lu Zijiao saw Lu Zijin’s reaction, and so did Father Lu and Mother Lu.

It seems this is true!

Lu Zijiao suddenly sat up straight, smiling cheekily at Lu Zijin, “Brother, I guessed right, didn’t I? Let me guess again, if I’m not mistaken, Qiao Jing must be Divine Doctor Jing’s apprentice, right?”

Lu Zijin opened his mouth, eyebrows further tightening.

“Haha! Look at your reaction; I know I guessed right!” Lu Zijiao’s face showed a “I just knew it” expression.

Lu Zijin opened his mouth again, his facial expression becoming even more bizarre.

“So Qiao Jing is Divine Doctor Jing’s apprentice,” Father Lu said.

“No wonder she could cure Old Master Zhan’s illness, and no wonder you said you weren’t worthy of Qiao Jing, Zijin,” Mother Lu said, as if suddenly enlightened.

Lu Zijin looked at the three who had all misunderstood, unsure how to explain.

“She isn’t Divine Doctor Jing’s apprentice,” he said.

“Bro, we all know now, you want to keep this secret for Qiao Jing. Don’t worry, we won’t tell anyone,” Lu Zijiao assured, patting his chest.

Lu Zijin, troubled, “She really isn’t.”

“Alright, alright, she isn’t. From today, no, starting now, Mom and Dad and I will forget this matter. You can rest easy, I absolutely won’t mention it,” Lu Zijiao assured repeatedly.

Father Lu and Mother Lu chimed in, “We won’t tell either.”

Lu Zijin “…”

Well, it seems this cannot be explained.

Meanwhile, Qiao Jing had also received a message from Lu Zijiao.

“That’s right, Young Master Zhan has had this problem ever since he was young. I’m his brother who grew up with him, we even bathed together, and he still complained about me.”

Zijiao: “??? Why are you asking this all of a sudden?”

“Has Young Master Zhan started to despise you? No way, right?”

“Well, that would be perfect, if he despises you, my brother definitely won’t. Just now my dad and mom also mentioned that they really like you, why don’t you come over to our house? I guarantee, once you’re at our place, there definitely won’t be any mother-in-law and daughter-in-law conflicts.”

Zijiao kept sending messages non-stop.

Qipei happened to see this last message when he came over.

Originally, Qipei hadn’t planned on snooping around, mainly because Zijiao kept sending one message after another nonstop, which was making him quite unhappy.

My wife, you just can’t stop chatting, can you?

Thinking this, Qipei sent Zijiao an emoji of a knife dripping with blood.

Zijiao “…”

After sending the message, Qipei put down his phone and looked towards Qiao Jing, “Now do you believe what I told you?”

Qiao Jing frowned, looking at the man’s body. As a doctor, she had performed countless surgeries both big and small, but she had never bathed a man before.

Not correct.

There was one.

“Just scrubbing the back, I have scrubbed backs for others before.”

Qipei’s eyes narrowed dangerously.

“Who? Men or women?”

“Both,” Qiao Jing answered truthfully.

A sinister air seeped up from the floor, quickly spreading throughout the room.

Qiao Jing, seeing Qipei full of menacing air, thought to herself how quickly he could change moods, faster than the weather.

Qipei pressed his lips tightly together, struggling to contain the anger that was on the verge of erupting, and said through clenched teeth, “As for the past, I had no authority or ability to question it. But now, you’re my wife. You can only scrub the back for me alone!”

What could he do? Who let him meet Qiao Jing so late?

“Is it really necessary?” Qiao Jing was rendered speechless.

Qipei’s face was filled with a cold harshness, “Not necessary? You think I don’t care because I’m not your man! Qiao Jing, I’m serious!”

Qipei discarded his crutches and limped towards Qiao Jing, pinning her directly against the wall.

“You’re crazy!” Qiao Jing looked at Qipei’s leg. Although the man’s leg had recovered a bit over these days of recuperation, it wasn’t time to throw away the crutches yet.

Qipei placed his hands on either side of Qiao Jing’s head, using them for support while firmly imprisoning her in his territory.

“Yes, I’m crazy. This sort of thing would drive any man mad.”

Even though all those incidents had happened before he met her, just the thought of Qiao Jing scrubbing the backs of other men could drive him into a frenzy.

She was his, entirely his! He absolutely wouldn’t allow anyone else a touch!

Qiao Jing raised her eyes to meet the man’s, sharp as an eagle’s, domineering and crazed.

“Promise me now, from now on you won’t scrub the back of any other man, only mine,” Qipei looked deep into Qiao Jing’s eyes, his gaze so intense, as if he wanted to engrave her into his bones.

Qiao Jing knitted her brows, her eyes and brows revealing a hint of annoyance.

Ever since she was a child, she disliked it when people spoke to her in a commanding tone, and she hated being forced to do things even more. If it weren’t for the fact that Qipei had once saved her life, she wouldn’t have agreed to help him scrub his back at all.

“Qipei, you have no right to order me around. We’re just in a contractual relationship, agreed for 100 days, after which we’ll go our separate ways. We—”

Qiao Jing hadn’t finished speaking when the man’s thin lips sealed hers.
