Chapter 255: Chapter 247 Could it be pregnancy?

Su Manhan muttered under her breath, wondering why her daughter was acting so strange. One moment she was looking at her, and the next at Qiao Jing. What was going on?

Wait a minute… Qiao Jing?

Suddenly, a phrase she had once uttered flashed in Su Manhan’s mind.

“If you can clinch this deal, I might as well call you my sister.”

Qiao Jing noticed Zhan Nanqing’s gaze and looked back at her with a hint of confusion.

Zhan Nanqing’s eyes immediately turned to Su Manhan, as if to remind her of something.

...

Qiao Jing followed Zhan Nanqing’s line of sight, giving Su Manhan a casual glance.

By that moment, Su Manhan had already recalled the words she had said earlier. She felt slightly guilty when Qiao Jing looked at her and worried that she might actually have to call her ‘sister’.

Fortunately, Qiao Jing’s gaze didn’t linger on her for long, and Su Manhan breathed a sigh of relief.

“Mom, didn’t you just…” Zhan Nanqing saw that Su Manhan wasn’t reacting and began to speak.

Before she could finish, Su Manhan quickly interrupted her, “No talking while eating!”

Su Manhan gave Zhan Nanqing a stern glance. Couldn’t her daughter understand? She was actually thinking about bringing that matter up again.

She had said it offhand, not expecting Qiao Jing would really be able to do it.

The others at the table looked towards Su Manhan, sensing something subtly off in the atmosphere.

Of course, Qiao Jing remembered Su Manhan’s words, but she didn’t want to make Zhan Qipei’s mother feel uncomfortable.

After the meal, Su Manhan scurried back to her room. She racked her brain but couldn’t figure out what relationship Qiao Jing had with Wonderful Hall.
