After finishing his work, Qiao Jing left the institute and returned to his apartment.
Because she was upset, she planned to go to bed directly after taking a shower.
However, halfway through washing, there was suddenly some movement outside the bathroom.
It seemed like the sound of a door opening, followed by a burst of footsteps approaching from far away.
During the day, after Zhan Nanqing finished talking to Zhan Qipei on the phone, he came over to tell her that Zhan Qipei would return to China tomorrow, and then explained to her in person.
Since Zhan Qi Pei won't return until tomorrow, who will break into the apartment at this time?
Thief? Robber?
Thinking of this, Qiao Jing instantly became alert.
After turning off the water valve, she grabbed the bath towel next to her and wrapped it in her. She also turned off the lights in the bathroom to avoid exposing her position.
Without the sound of water, the sound of footsteps was more obvious and getting closer.
Qiao Jing calmly came to the door. As soon as the other party approached, she suddenly opened the door and slashed through with a knife.
Unexpectedly, the other party turned sideways and dodged.
Qiao Jing couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. Since becoming pregnant, her skills have become much slower.
If it had been before, she would never have missed it!
After a pause, Qiao Jing struck at the opponent again.
However, the hand she waved out this time was grabbed by the other party.
Then, she fell into a hug.
Although the lights were turned off and nothing could be seen, the other person's strong chest and the unique aura exuding from his body were enough for Qiao Jing to recognize him instantly.
She struggled for a moment and said, "Zhan Qi Pei, let me go!"
Zhan Qi Pei carefully hugged the woman in his arms, for fear of hurting the baby in her belly.
Because they are triplets, the five-month-old belly has already swelled very obviously.
He lowered his head slightly, put his thin lips next to Qiao Jing's ear, and said in a low and magnetic voice, "Good boy, don't move. It's me. I'm back."
When Zhan Qipei spoke, warm breath sprayed on Qiao Jing's ears, giving her an indescribable tingling sensation.
She turned her head and hid, pursed her lips and whispered: "Why are you back? Isn't it tomorrow?"
"I miss you."
While saying this, Zhan Qipei's hands holding Qiao Jing tightened slightly, and his movements also expressed his longing for her.
Qiao Jing was startled for a moment, then she opened her red lips and slowly said two words, "Really?"
To be honest, Zhan Qi Pei rushed back from abroad all night for her, and she couldn't possibly be untouched.
But when she thought of that phone call, those photos, and the woman who went abroad with him and behaved intimately, she felt an indescribable annoyance in her heart.
Seeing Qiao Jing's cold attitude, Zhan Qi Pei couldn't help but frown, "You don't believe me?"
Qiao Jing remained silent, as if she didn't want to talk to him.
There was a hint of helplessness on Zhan Qi Pei's handsome face, "Okay, I really miss you, but I rushed back overnight, mainly because I was afraid that you would get jealous and run away in a rage."
Hearing what he said, Qiao Jing suddenly looked a little unnatural, and blurted out her retort, "Who is jealous?"
At most she was a little unhappy, not jealous at all!
"Okay, okay, you're not jealous."
Zhan Qipei echoed Qiao Jing's words in a funny way, and then explained: "When I went abroad this time, I actually went to participate in a fashion show. That woman was a model under Zhan's brand. She and I just happened to have a fashion show together.
Bad, nothing else.”
"Then what happened with that phone call before?"
After asking this question, Qiao Jing also realized that she was actually quite concerned about this matter.
"What phone number?" Zhan Qipei didn't know.
"On the afternoon of your business trip, I called you, and that woman's voice was on the phone..."
Qiao Jing briefly explained the situation at that time.
After Zhan Qipei listened, he pondered for a moment before speaking, "I left my cell phone in the office at that time, and Tang Yan got it back for me, but... the call record doesn't seem to contain the call you mentioned."
At this point, Zhan Qi Pei had already guessed what was going on.
Obviously, that Han Lin'er answered Qiao Jing's call without authorization, deliberately said something that made Qiao Jing misunderstood, and deleted the call history afterwards!
Thinking of this, a coldness flashed in Zhan Qi Pei's eyes, "That woman is deliberately causing trouble. I will let Tang Yan handle this matter."
After listening to Zhan Qi Pei's explanation, Qiao Jing also understood.
After all, this kind of trick is actually not very clever. It's just that there were too many coincidences this time, which made her a little unsure.
Although the misunderstanding was resolved, Qiao Jing's mood did not immediately improve.
She hummed softly and struggled to leave Zhan Qi Pei's arms, "Who knows if what you said is true?"
"Then how do you want me to prove it? How about I catch that blind woman in front of you and confront her, so that you can vent your anger?"
As Zhan Qipei spoke, he hugged Qiao Jing tightly to prevent her from breaking away.
As the two of them pulled, the towel wrapped around Qiao Jing suddenly loosened and fell to the ground.
Her expression changed, and she said with some embarrassment: "Zhan Qi Pei, let go, my bath towel fell off!
"It's okay, I'll get it for you."
Zhan Qi Pei did not let go of Qiao Jing, but turned on the light.
In an instant, the darkness was dispersed by the light, and the eyes became bright.
Qiao Jing's whole body was exposed to Zhan Qi Pei's sight without any cover.
Although the baby in his belly is already five months old, facing Zhan Qi Pei like this, even if he is as calm as Qiao Jing, he still inevitably feels shy.
Seeing her cheeks turn crimson instantly, Zhan Qi Pei couldn't help but curl his lips.
After all, it's not easy to see Qiao Jing's shy side.
Qiao Jing glared at him in shame, then leaned over to pick up the bath towel on the floor.
However, her bulging belly seriously affected her movements.
She can't bend down at all!!
When Zhan Qi Pei saw this, he couldn't help but chuckle.
Qiao Jing suddenly became even more annoyed and snorted coldly: "How dare you laugh? If it weren't for you, how could my bath towel fall off!"
Zhan Qi Pei was afraid of really making her angry, so he quickly and sincerely admitted his mistake, "Okay, okay, it was my fault. I was wrong. I will pick it up for you right now."
As he spoke, he leaned down slightly and picked up the bath towel.
Qiao Jing immediately reached over, intending to take the bath back and wrap it up again.
Who would have thought that Zhan Qi Pei would throw the towel on the sink and said, "It's already fallen off, why should I wrap it up? That's it."
After saying this, without waiting for Qiao Jing's reaction, he directly picked Qiao Jing up and walked towards the room.
"Zhan Qi Pei! I think you did it on purpose just now, right? Let me down, I don't want you to hug me!"
Qiao Jing struggled in Zhan Qipei's arms for a few times, but as soon as she felt like she was slipping, she still subconsciously hugged Zhan Qipei's neck.
If she wasn't worried about the baby in her belly, she would definitely look good with Qi Pei!
Soon, Qiao Jing was carried into the room and placed on the bed.
Zhan Qipei leaned over and kissed her, and his magnetic voice coaxed: "Go to sleep, stop making trouble."
After the bedside table lamp is turned off, the dark room is full of beauty...
the next day.
As soon as Zhan Qipei arrived at the company, he called Tang Yan and asked him to thoroughly investigate the phone call.
When Tang Yan heard this, he immediately remembered that he happened to bump into Han Lin'er entering the office without permission that day.
He said with certainty: "Mr. Zhan, there is no need to confirm anymore. It was Han Lin'er who did it. She entered your office at that time."
"If you dare to set your sights on me, you will never die!"
Zhan Qipei's tone was as cold as frost. He raised his eyes and glanced at Tang Yan, "I'll leave this matter to you. You don't need me to teach you what to do, right?"
"Yes, I'll do it right away."
Tang Yan took the order and left.
On the same day, Han Lin'er was fired from Zhan's modeling agency.
Colleagues across the city also received news on this day that Han Lin'er was completely banned.
At this point, Han Lin'er disappeared in the modeling world and even in the city, just like evaporating from the world. This person has never been traced again...
