Pregnant After Healing the Alpha

Chapter 374: Chapter 363 Su Manhan’s Heart Aches for Qiao Jing

Mrs. Chen’s eyes widened in disbelief as she stared at Su Manhan for a long time.

“You didn’t like Qiao Jing before, right? You couldn’t wait for her to leave the Zhan Family, so why are you suddenly speaking up for her?”

Was this really the Su Manhan she knew? The difference was so stark—could she have been possessed?

Su Manhan was choked up by Mrs. Chen’s words and immediately began to explain herself.

“When did I ever say Qiao Jing was no good? You must be hard of hearing. Don’t talk nonsense, I love my daughter-in-law the most.”

After saying this, she stole a glance at Qiao Jing and, seeing her indifferent expression, breathed a sigh of relief.

Mrs. Chen really didn’t know how to read the room. Those were past issues, and bringing them up now—what if Qiao Jing gets angry?

Qiao Jing didn’t think it was a big deal as she was well aware of Su Manhan’s previous attitude toward her.

Mrs. Chen was so shocked that her mouth hung open.

“Ah?”

The switch in Su Manhan’s attitude made her head spin with confusion. Could it actually have been a misunderstanding on her part?

Impossible. Mrs. Chen vividly remembered Su Manhan venting about Qiao Jing while they shopped together. Why the sudden change?

Su Manhan did not continue the conversation with Mrs. Chen, fearing she might say something else and handed over some medicinal materials to Mrs. Chen.

“We’re leaving now, and don’t you dare speak ill of my daughter-in-law again.”

If she stayed any longer, Mrs. Chen would surely continue digging up her past, and she couldn’t afford to drag her son down.

Qiao Jing said nothing more and followed Su Manhan to the car for their return to Purple Garden.

Once inside the car, a strange silence hung in the air.

Su Manhan sneaked several glances at Qiao Jing, hesitated for a moment, but eventually spoke.
