Pregnant After Healing the Alpha-Chapter 263 - 253: Continue to Slap Qiao Mengtong’s Face

Chapter 263: Chapter 253: Continue to Slap Qiao Mengtong’s Face

Qiao Jing had been fooling Zhan Qipei for three days, and this noon happened to have something to do, so she took a stomach medicine in front of him from the medicine bottle.

“I’m going out for a bit, I’ve got the medicine with me.”

“Do you want me to drive you?”

Zhan Qipei was very pleased that Qiao Jing took the initiative to carry the medicine herself.

The way Qiao Jing looked in pain that day was deeply engraved in his mind.

Zhan Qipei, worried that the incident might happen again, watched Qiao Jing take her medicine responsibly every day.

...

“No need, I can take a taxi.”

Qiao Jing glanced at the time; she had arranged to meet Lin Xiuxiang at the mall at one o’clock.

Zhan Qipei took out his black card from his wallet and handed it to Qiao Jing.

“Use my card.”

Qiao Jing shook her head, put the black card back, and as she bent down to tie her shoelaces at the entrance, she didn’t forget to speak to Zhan Qipei.

“I’ll go first.”

Zhan Qipei looked at his card that had been returned, feeling somewhat upset inside; he wanted Qiao Jing to spend his money.

But on second thought, his wife was Professor Qiao and Divine Doctor Jing, who might have even more money than him; he had to earn more money for his wife to spend! Zhan Qipei followed closely behind Qiao Jing, holding car keys, looking like he intended to go out with her.

“I don’t have work this afternoon; I’ll take you there.”

“You can take me, but you don’t need to accompany me, you go to work.”

Qiao Jing straightened up and stared directly at Zhan Qipei. She knew that if he took her there, he would surely think of accompanying her to shop.

She had to preemptively dismiss Zhan Qipei’s idea because if he came along, she wouldn’t be able to keep the stomach medicine a secret.

Besides, considering the workload of Zhan Corporation, Zhan Qipei didn’t have that much free time.

Zhan Qipei, having his thoughts read by Qiao Jing, pursed his thin lips and conceded.

“All right.”

When Qiao Jing arrived at the bottom of the mall, Lin Xiuxiang had just arrived, waving at her.

“Qiao Qiao! Over here!”

Qiao Jing got out of the car and only went over to Lin Xiuxiang after watching Zhan Qipei drive away.

She put the stomach medicine into another small bottle and followed Lin Xiuxiang into a branded bag store.

“The dean’s birthday is in a few days, so I asked you out to buy him a gift.”

Lin Xiuxiang explained her reason for coming.

Qiao Jing was also aware of the dean’s birthday and guessed why Lin Xiuxiang had invited her out.

She had initially planned to go to Wonderful Hall to get some top-quality medicinal materials for the dean, and this trip could be an opportunity to pick up an extra gift.

“Qiao Qiao, let me tell you, I heard from others that this store’s new arrivals are particularly attractive!”

Lin Xiuxiang smiled and led Qiao Jing to the counter.

“Hmm, let’s take a look.”

Qiao Jing smiled, seeing how excited Lin Xiuxiang was, her eyes curving into crescents.

When she saw the name of the store, she suddenly felt it looked familiar.

She recognized it as belonging to the Zhan Family and said nothing, just followed Lin Xiuxiang.

Once inside the store, Lin Xiuxiang headed straight for a bag placed in the center of the shop.

“I heard from them that the one displayed in the center of the store is beautiful! Wait, let me check the price.”

Lin Xiuxiang glanced at the price and felt as if lightning had struck on a clear day; she silently put the bag back.

Although she usually recognized some brands, this brand was too luxurious, beyond her usual scope of knowledge, so naturally, she did not know about its price range.

“Qiao Qiao, why don’t we look at other stores instead?”

Lin Xiuxiang noticed the salesperson looking at them strangely and came straight over; wanting to avoid embarrassment, she tried to lead Qiao Jing away.

“No need, let me see.”

Qiao Jing was aware of Lin Xiuxiang’s concerns and took the women’s bag, glanced at the price tag, and examined its quality.

The quality and appearance of the bag were decent, and indeed suitable for the dean, she thought. Just as she wanted to check how many compartments it had, the salesperson snatched it back.

The salesperson carefully placed the bag back on the display shelf, her face full of disdain as she sized up Qiao Jing and Lin Xiuxiang from head to toe.

Finally, as though she had confirmed something, she let out a cold snort through her nose.

“Hmph, neither of you is wearing any branded clothes, yet you dare to browse in a brand store?”

Lin Xiuxiang heard this and glanced at the plain attire of both Qiao Jing and herself, furrowing her brows but not speaking.

“Do you need to wear branded clothes to enter your store?”

Qiao Jing coldly looked at the salesperson. This sort of looking down on others was not new to her.

She positioned Lin Xiuxiang behind herself and addressed the salesperson.

The salesperson, arms folded, regarded Qiao Jing with an air of indifference as she spoke.

“People who can’t even afford brand-name clothes, can they afford this kind of bag?”

Without waiting for Qiao Jing or Lin Xiuxiang to reply, the salesperson began to boast about the bags on display as if showing off.

“This bag is the treasure of our store! Do you know what brand our store is?”

As she mentioned the store’s treasure, it seemed to fill the salesperson with endless confidence, and she lifted her chin while continuing.

“I bet you didn’t know and that’s why you dared to come in. This is a global limited edition, five hundred thousand for one. You still dare to touch it? Can you afford to compensate if you damage it?”

Qiao Jing and Lin Xiuxiang didn’t speak, just listening to the salesperson going on about the bag on her own accord.

Although Lin Xiuxiang liked the bag too, she did not appreciate the salesperson’s attitude, frowning and thinking about taking Qiao Jing and leaving.

“Qiao Qiao, let’s not buy anything here.”

“Heh, I figure you want to buy but can’t afford it!”

The salesperson sneered, her eyes fixated on Qiao Jing’s hand, afraid she might touch the bag again and damage it.

Lin Xiuxiang couldn’t hold back any longer. She stood shoulder to shoulder with Qiao Jing, confronting the salesperson.

“Why do you speak like that?”

“I’m just telling the truth, what about it? Could it be that you actually have the money to buy?”

The salesperson looked at them with scorn, her eyes almost rolling back in her head.

Lazy to argue with the salesperson, Qiao Jing said, “Wrap this up.”

When the salesperson heard Qiao Jing say she wanted the bag, she reacted as if it was some joke, speaking with sarcasm.

“Wrap it up? Unless you have the money, don’t order me around and waste our time! We are very busy here.”

Qiao Jing gazed at the salesperson with an indifferent expression, yet her eyes were sharp, piercingly fixed on her.

She took the bag from the display shelf, looked up at the salesperson, and said,

“I want to buy this bag. As an employee, don’t you pack merchandise for customers?”

The salesperson was stunned by Qiao Jing’s piercing gaze, a chill running up her spine, causing her hair to stand on end.

Could this really be someone from a wealthy family? That kind of temperament wasn’t common.

But she hadn’t seen these people before, and their clothes, plain and simple, didn’t look like those of wealthy people at all!

With a half-doubting attitude, the salesperson took the bag to the front desk to start wrapping it.

Someone else walked into the store, someone both Qiao Jing and Lin Xiuxiang knew.

Qiao Mengtong had waited several days before daring to step out, afraid others would see the injury on her face.

After spending time with Zhan Nan and receiving some money, she planned to come to this store to buy a bag and spend some of that money, but she ran into Qiao Jing.

Noticing something was off inside the store, she stood outside for a while, waiting until she saw the salesperson ready to wrap before walking in.

“She doesn’t have the money, wrapping it for her would just be wasting time! Trying to look rich when you’re not?”

The salesperson immediately looked up upon hearing this, and seeing that it was indeed Qiao Mengtong, switched to a flattering demeanor.

“Oh my, what wind has blown Miss Qiao here today? You are our esteemed guest today. Come, come, let me pour you some tea to sit a while.”
