Zhan Nanqing was sweating profusely and turned back, trying to find Qiao Jing.
But when she returned to the original place, she didn't even see a soul.
Zhan Nanqing became more and more panicked. She took out her mobile phone and called Su Manhan. While on the phone, she walked in the direction where Qiao Jing left.
"Mom, Qiao Jing... Qiao Jing is being followed... Where is brother? Brother, he won't answer my call..."
What if something happens to Qiao Jing?!
Su Manhan was sitting at home eating apples. When she heard Zhan Nanqing's words, she was startled and the apple in her hand fell to the ground.
"What's going on? Who is following Qiao Jing? Where are you now? Where is Qiao Jing?"
Zhan Nanqing was so anxious that she cried. She quickly walked into the alley where Qiao Jing might have been, but saw no one.
"I don't know...I...Qiao Jing asked me to leave separately...now we are near the research institute..."
Su Manhan immediately understood Qiao Jing's intention of leaving separately, and anxiously walked to the second floor.
"Why are you so stupid? Qiao Jing thinks she is so smart, how could she not know what's going on? She didn't want to drag you down, so she let you go separately! Your brother is currently having an emergency meeting in the company and there is no way to contact you!
Please tell me the situation carefully and I will talk to your grandpa!"
At the same time, Qiao Jing came to a small alley near the research institute.
She could feel that all those people were following her, and there were more than one or two people on the other side.
Qiao Jing slowly frowned, stopped, turned around, and said coldly:
"Come out."
Fortunately, the target of these people was not Zhan Nanqing, and she had sent them away in advance, otherwise the two of them would be in danger now.
When the men in suits who had been hiding in the dark heard this, some walked in from the entrance of the alley, and some jumped down from the wall next to the alley.
The next second, a dozen blond men wearing black suits appeared in Qiao Jing's sight.
Qiao Jing raised his eyes to look at these blond people and narrowed his eyes slightly.
She did not fight with these people easily. After all, she was still pregnant, so it would be a bit inconvenient to fight. In addition, these dozen men looked well-trained at first sight.
She would not fight these people unless absolutely necessary.
At this moment, Qiao Jing's cell phone rang. She took advantage of the men in suits not coming to her, stepped back, and opened her cell phone to check the message.
She took a look and saw that the person who sent the message was Xu Moqian, asking where she was and if she wanted to go out to play together.
Qiao Jing pursed her red lips tightly, and while stepping back, she freed up one hand to type on the keyboard to reply to Xu Moqian's message.
"I'm being followed."
As soon as this message was sent out, the men in suits noticed her intention to escape and took steps to chase after her.
Relying on her familiarity with the terrain of these alleys, Qiao Jin's slender figure began to shuttle through the alleys, and the men in suits followed her closely.
However, their speed was still not as fast as Qiao Jing's. After all, Qiao Jing's research institute was in this area. She knew the surrounding environment very well and almost got rid of those people a few times.
The man in the suit who took the lead looked at Qiao Jing's nimble and agile figure, frowned, and ordered the people behind him:
"Follow up quickly!"
Qiao Jing was distractedly checking Xu Moqian's news at this time.
After Xu Moqian saw the news that she was being followed, he quickly sent a series of questions.
"???"
"Sister Jing! Where are you? What's going on? Who is following you? Give me your location!"
"Sister Jing!! Don't not reply to my message!!"
Qiao Jing's brows knitted into knots.
"do not know."
As soon as she sent this message, she was forced to stop.
Because, she now reached the end of an alley.
Qiao Jing raised her eyes and took a look, visually measuring the height of the wall. After confirming that there was a certain risk in jumping up by force, she stopped.
Then, she turned around, looked directly at the dozen people, and said in fluent English:
"State your intentions."
The man in the suit who took the lead bowed to Qiao Jing very respectfully, and then communicated directly with him in Chinese.
"Professor Qiao, we are here to invite you to country M. Our superiors have something to ask you and need your help."
After hearing the words of the man in a suit, Qiao Jing lightly raised her eyebrows, which were as light as smoke. There was no extraneous expression on her indifferent face, making it impossible to tell whether she was happy or angry.
She didn't have much interaction with Country M. She only had occasional contact with Miao Chun Tang after its branch expanded to Country M.
Apart from Miaochuntang, only Wu Xirui has contact with people from the M country. However, the person following her cannot be sent by Wu Xirui.
After all, she was going to see a doctor in Wu Xirui later, and he was not so free, so he sent someone to follow her and then take her there to see a doctor.
"Invite me to country M?"
She didn't believe what the man in the suit said. Although he said he was asking her to come over and help, he actually brought so many people here. It was obvious that if she didn't cooperate, she would be taken away by force.
The man in the suit nodded and said angrily:
"Professor Qiao, our country really needs your help. Please cooperate with us."
Qiao Jing looked at the man in the suit with such a hypocritical expression, and a chill gradually spread between his brows and eyes.
She directly rejected the man in the suit's "request" without any hesitation.
"Sorry, I refuse."
Although she knew that by pretending to be obedient at this time, these men would not fight against her and thus keep herself safe.
But at her core, she is not someone who will give in easily, let alone those who have no idea of their intentions and are ready to take her away by force.
In addition, her strength is completely enough to defeat these dozen men. Even if these men are well-trained, she is not a vegetarian.
She wanted to take a gamble with these people.
The man in the suit who took the lead saw that Qiao Jing decisively rejected him, and no longer pretended to be respectful, but directly exposed his true colors, and his face became cold.
"Professor Qiao, let me reiterate, I hope you can cooperate with us. I also know that you are a smart person and will know how to choose."
Their superiors have said that they must not hurt Professor Qiao even a hair, but if Professor Qiao refuses to cooperate, they are allowed to take some tough measures.
Qiao Jing raised the corners of her lips and looked at the row of people with a half-smile.
"I told you, I won't leave with you."
If the person from country M took the initiative to come over, communicate with her through proper channels, and ask her to help, she would consider it.
And it would be impossible for these people to use shady means to "ask" her to help!
Seeing this, the man in the suit who took the lead had no choice but to bow again.
"In that case, Professor Qiao, I'm sorry, I'm offended!"
