Chapter 152: Chapter 145: Zhan Qipei Insists on Giving Qiao Jing the Black Card

After work, Qiao Jing and Zhan Nanqing had just stepped out of the research institute when they saw the Maybach parked at the entrance waiting for them.

Seeing this, Qiao Jing immediately felt a headache coming on and turned to look at Zhan Nanqing, “You help me stop your brother later.”

Zhan Nanqing’s brows knotted, what if she didn’t want to stop him?

Just as Zhan Nanqing was thinking this, Zhan Qipei got out of the car, holding a cup of milk tea for her.

“Your favorite coconut milk tea, still warm.”

Qiao Jing glanced at the milk tea in Zhan Qipei’s hand. She really wanted to drink the milk tea, just not keen on accepting Zhan Qipei’s kindness.

“If you don’t drink it, no one else will fancy it, and I’ll just have to throw it away,” Zhan Qipei said, deliberately glancing at the trash bin nearby.

Qiao Jing had always been a frugal person, and the thought of perfectly good milk tea being wasted like that was just too much.

“You really know how to waste money, buying it just to throw it away,” Qiao Jing cast a disapproving glance at Zhan Qipei and then took the milk tea from his hand.

Zhan Qipei curled his lips into a smile, gazing at Qiao Jing with a look full of indulgence.

“Yeah, I’m quite the spendthrift, so I need someone to control me. You would be perfect for that.”

After he spoke, Zhan Qipei pulled a black card from his pocket and held it out in front of Qiao Jing.

“Here, for you.”

Qiao Jing frowned. “What do you mean?”

Zhan Qipei, without explanation, pushed the black card into Qiao Jing’s palm and wrapped his own large hand around hers, enclosing the card within.

“As husband and wife, it’s traditional for the man to earn outside while the woman manages the home. Naturally, the control of the household finances should be in the wife’s hands.”

Standing aside, Zhan Nanqing felt like she was just air, internally berating her brother for shamelessly throwing dog food her way.

Complaints aside, Zhan Nanqing noticed Qiao Jing and Zhan Qipei standing together – both so excellent in their own right, the beautiful woman and the handsome man looking exceedingly well-matched – it made her think they were simply meant for each other.

Qiao Jing withdrew her hand and held the card back out to Zhan Qipei.

“I’m not short on money, and even if I were, I wouldn’t use yours. President Zhan, I’ve told you before, ours is but a contractual marriage. I won’t fall for you, and you’re not my type. There are only three days left. If you don’t go to the civil affairs office by then, I’ll unilaterally annul our marriage. Don’t worry, I have plenty of ways to do that.”
