Pregnant After Healing the Alpha

Chapter 47

Chapter 47: Chapter 45: Wanting to Slap Qiao Jing’s Face, But Ended Up Humiliating Oneself

When suddenly asked this, Zhan Qipei was actually stunned for a moment, and although he usually remained composed even if Mount Tai were crumbling before him, at this moment his face revealed a somewhat bewildered and vacant expression.

Lu Zijiao widened his eyes at Zhan Qipei, his eyes filled with surprise.

“No, no way, Young Master Zhan, you really fell for Qiao Jing?!”

So surprised that he couldn’t even speak properly.

After recovering, Zhan Qipei’s face returned to its usual indifferent expression.

“Your imagination is quite rich. How could I possibly like her?”

“You really don’t like her?” Lu Zijiao asked for confirmation.

“Have you forgotten that I already have someone I like?”

Upon hearing Zhan Qipei say this, only then did Lu Zijiao belatedly realize he was referring to the girl who had operated on Zhan Qipei some days before.

“Since you don’t like Qiao Jing, then you have even less reason to be angry, right? And even if my brother is now pursuing Qiao Jing, no one would say that you’ve been cuckolded. Everyone in the capital knows you are in a ‘marriage by imperial command,’ and after 100 days, you and Qiao Jing will go your separate ways, so there’s really no need for concern.”

Zhan Qipei was a sensible man; how could he not understand what Lu Zijiao was saying?

But—

He just felt frustrated!

Frustrated by Qiao Jing attracting unwanted attention, frustrated by those people buzzing around her like flies.

While Zhan Qipei was thinking this, the noise in the banquet hall suddenly escalated.

“It’s Han Zhiyu, Master Han!”

“It really is Master Han!”

Han Zhiyu?

Zhan Qipei’s attention shifted, and following the gaze of the crowd, he soon saw an old man dressed in a green robe, with a stooped back, walking towards them with a slightly faltering step.

Was Han Zhiyu here to celebrate his grandpa’s birthday? Why didn’t he remember Han Zhiyu having such a good relationship with Grandpa Zhan?

“Master Han! It’s Master Han! Nanqing, look!” Lou Xinrou excitedly grabbed Zhan Nanqing’s arm and shook it.

The elder standing next to them, Lou Pinshu, who was the president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, was even more thrilled and hurriedly greeted him.

“Master Han, it’s been a long time.”

“Yes! Since I became ill and stopped painting, we haven’t met.” Han Zhiyu stroked his beard as he spoke.
