Chapter 10: Chapter 9: Qiao Jing’s Medical Skills, Making Zhan Qipei Doubt Again

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Wait for the results, but with no surprises, this should be a success.” Qiao Jing’s face was alight with confidence, even though she had failed many times before, she was very confident in this new variety.

“That would be truly wonderful! If it really succeeds, it will directly push our country’s agriculture—”

“Ahem!” Qiao Jing coughed lightly, interrupting Zhan Yuanshan’s words, “Grandpa Zhan, if you want to drink the corn porridge I make, just say so, no need to exaggerate.”

Zhan Yuanshan caught on and stroked his beard, “You, girl, have a special knack, especially for making corn porridge—it’s just delicious. Next time you come, you must bring me some corn porridge.”

“Alright, noted.”

Zhan Qipei was intently watching Qiao Jing and Zhan Yuanshan, his eagle-like, dark eyes not stopping their scrutiny.

As clever as he was, he could tell that the two were hiding something from him.

Corn…

Speaking of which, he had gone to Autumn Water Village a few days ago, precisely because he had heard that the agricultural magnate Professor Qiao was in that village.

LastName Qiao?

At this thought, Zhan Qipei’s gaze once again fixed on Qiao Jing.

Could there be some relationship between Qiao Jing and Professor Qiao?

Zhan Qipei meticulously analyzed the words his grandfather had started to say but were cut off by Qiao Jing, and the more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

After leaving the hospital, Zhan Qipei had intended to ask Qiao Jing directly, but he felt that she wouldn’t tell him. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have interrupted his grandfather in the hospital room, clearly not wanting him to know.

“Tang Yan.”

“Boss, you called me?”

“Check everything about Qiao Jing, I want to know everything,” Zhan Qipei said, watching the silhouette of Qiao Jing as she left.

“Yes, I’ll get on it.”

That evening, Zhan Qipei received all the information about Qiao Jing.

It wasn’t far off from what Qiao Jing had said; she had contracted a severe contagious disease at birth. The Qiao Family didn’t want to care for her, and she was always tended by her biological mother. Her mother died because she took care of her, and the Qiao Family labeled her a “jinx,” throwing her out into the countryside on a winter night.

Latter, she was found and raised by Zhang Ruicheng, who was Grandpa Zhan’s lieutenant and the one who adopted Qiao Jing.

Being frail and sickly, Qiao Jing was sent to an old traditional Chinese doctor early on to learn some basic knowledge about nurturing her health.

Reading this, Zhan Qipei put down the information, leaned back, closed his eyes, and let out a long, stifled breath, his lips curling up in self-mockery.
