Chapter 234: Chapter 226: The Consequences of Underestimating Qiao Jing

The pair of trousers that Zhan Qipei had intentionally torn were restored to their original condition in no time.

Qiao Jing did not notice the subtle glances of the people around her, and after mending the clothes, she stood up.
