Chapter 307: Chapter 297: Qiao Jing’s Impressive Figure
Jiang Ling crossed her arms and looked Qiao Jing up and down with an expression full of disdain.
“Well, if it isn’t Qiao Jing? You know our Xinrou, don’t you? Why don’t you greet your own friend?”
Lou Xinrou smiled at Qiao Jing in coordination, greeting her first.
“What a coincidence to meet you here.”
Qiao Jing glanced at Lou Xinrou with a faint look. She wasn’t about to become friends with someone who wanted her child dead.
She could tell that these two were looking for trouble and had no intention of engaging with them, so she walked around them and tried to leave directly.
Seeing Qiao Jing’s cold and aloof demeanor, Jiang Ling lost her temper and took a few steps forward to block her way.
“Xinrou is greeting you. Why aren’t you responding? Are you really that arrogant?
No matter what, she is still the young mistress of the Lou Family. You, a country bumpkin, getting to know Xinrou is really you reaching above your station!”
Qiao Jing didn’t want to waste her words on these people and changed her direction, intending to leave.
Jiang Ling noticed Qiao Jing’s intent to leave, thinking that she was scared, and together with Lou Xinrou, they blocked her way.
“Don’t think too highly of yourself; you’re just a temporary Mrs. Zhan, let me tell you, don’t get too carried away!

Soon Xinrou will become Young Master Zhan’s new wife, and you can go back to your countryside for all your life.”
She deliberately emphasized the word “temporary,” intending to make Qiao Jing realize that she would soon lose this status.
Lou Xinrou pretended to be concerned for Qiao Jing, pulled Jiang Ling aside and whispered.
“Jiang Ling, stop it. Let’s go.”
Jiang Ling snapped her hand back with a face full of anger, pointing at Qiao Jing.
“Xinrou, why are you still defending her? You’re just too kind. This person’s status is so low, yet she’s so arrogant. Only someone as patient as you would tolerate her!”
As Qiao Jing walked towards another direction, hearing these words, she couldn’t help but let out a light snort of laughter.
“Heh.”
She turned her head back, slightly arching her delicate brows, and with eyes cold as ice, she directly pierced Jiang Ling with her gaze.
Lou Xinrou, who would send a sachet that caused infertility in women, would definitely not be described as kind-hearted.
When Jiang Ling met those chilling, extreme eyes, she felt as if she was being swallowed whole.
That light laughter, although not loud, drifted unsettlingly into her ears.
Jiang Ling shivered, feeling a chill run up her back, and for a moment, she forgot how to speak.
Lou Xinrou was also frightened by Qiao Jing’s gaze.
Her self-proclaimed sharp eyes paled in comparison to Qiao Jing’s intense and icy stare.
By the time the two regained their composure, Qiao Jing had already left.
This was the second time Jiang Ling had encountered someone with such a powerful aura.
Previously at a family business gathering, only Zhan Qipei had made her feel this intimidated—Qiao Jing was the second.
Qiao Jing was merely a country girl; why did she have such a mighty aura?
Probably because she had stayed by Young Master Zhan’s side for a while, picked up a few tricks, and now she thought she was mimicking him impressively, trying to act big in front of her.
After regaining her composure, Jiang Ling snorted coldly.
“I’ve never seen someone like this, of low status but so arrogant, surely she has no friends. Let’s go, we’re buying new lingerie.”
Lou Xinrou shifted her gaze from where Qiao Jing had disappeared and resumed her smile.
“Yeah.”
Just as Qiao Jing left the mall, she checked the things she had bought and paused when she got to the lingerie she had purchased.
The clerk had given her the wrong size.
She had no choice but to return to the store and find the sales associate.
“Hello, I got the wrong size.”
The sales associate immediately put on a professional smile, came over to Qiao Jing, took out the clothes to check them, and saw that the size on the receipt didn’t match the size of the clothes, sounding apologetic.
“Sorry, which staff member attended to you just now?”
Qiao Jing knew what she meant and didn’t want to make things difficult for the staff member, so she skipped that question.
“Just help me exchange it for a different size.”
The sales associate led Qiao Jing to the area where her size was available.
“Please wait here for a moment, I’ll go back to the warehouse to find you a brand new one. Do you need me to measure you again for the size issue?”
Qiao Jing shook her head, spotted a piece of lingerie, took it down, held it in her hand, felt the fabric, and tested the comfort level.
A sudden voice intruded.
“I’ll take this one.”
Jiang Ling, upon seeing Qiao Jing in the same store again and remembering her cold attitude earlier, spat in disdain—talk about enemies on a narrow road.
The sales associate hadn’t expected someone to abruptly come over to cut in, she glanced at Jiang Ling and Lou Xinrou’s figures, and gave an honest reply.
“Sorry, but the lady is holding a D cup, which you can’t wear. If you were thinking of buying it for your friend, it’s not suitable for her either.”
Jiang Ling’s face immediately turned unpleasant, furrowing her brows as she sized up Qiao Jing.
Those proud curves, slim waist, and legs as long as a world supermodel’s were enough to make her envious—it was the body she desired the most.
More importantly, Qiao Jing’s face was unmatched; even she felt inferior.
She wondered if when Nvwa was creating humans, she had especially sculpted Qiao Jing to be more beautiful, leaving the rest to be mere blobs of clay.
Lou Xinrou’s face fell when she heard the sales associate’s words, subconsciously comparing the differences between herself and Qiao Jing.
Though her legs were considered long among women, they were not as long and slim as Qiao Jing’s, whose skin was so fair it reflected light.
Looking down at the part mentioned by the sales associate, she saw her own size was A, glanced at Jiang Ling, who was just a B, yet Qiao Jing was a D!
Both of them went crazy with jealousy, yet due to the size mismatch, they couldn’t take what Qiao Jing had bought.
Lou Xinrou, with Jiang Ling in tow, went to another section to pick out items and then proceeded to check out, where they saw Qiao Jing also checking out.
The sales associate, being responsible for the mix-up and worried about being reported, treated Qiao Jing very respectfully and personally assisted her with the checkout.
“Hello, that will be thirty thousand yuan. Because of our mistake with the merchandise, I’ll give you a 20% discount, so it’s twenty-four thousand yuan.”
Qiao Jing was just about to say it wasn’t necessary when someone else answered for her.
Lou Xinrou and Jiang Ling approached the cashier counter and only overheard the part about the discount, displaying an unmistakably contemptuous look on their faces.
Jiang Ling, having been at a disadvantage earlier, was looking to regain some face.
“Tsk tsk tsk, needing a discount to buy lingerie? How poor do you have to be—”
She hadn’t finished her sentence when a shopping bag was presented to her.
Qiao Jing casually uttered a sentence.
“You like it, don’t you? Here, take it.”
Jiang Ling was stunned, seeing that shopping bag made her quite angry—Qiao Jing was doing it on purpose!
She knew very well that it wasn’t the right size for her and yet she insisted on handing it over, was it just to point out her smaller size?!
Lou Xinrou frowned and handled the situation by pushing the shopping bag back.
“Thanks a lot, but that’s not what Jiang Ling meant.”
The sales associate witnessed the whole process and forcefully pressed her lips together to refrain from laughing.
