Chapter 385: Chapter 374: Zhan Qipei Refuses to Leave Qiao Jing’s Room Chapter 385: Chapter 374: Zhan Qipei Refuses to Leave Qiao Jing’s Room “Qiao Jing, do you really have an invitation?”

Qiao Jing nodded gently.

A look of surprise appeared on Su Manhan’s face, and she also breathed a sigh of relief for the other party.

“That’s a relief, that’s a relief. I had thought of many ways before, but none worked to get the invitation. But… is it because you work at the research institute that you qualify to go?”

Previously, she had thought that when Qiao Jing said he could go, it was just to save face in front of Mrs. Chen. She didn’t expect Qiao Jing actually had the credentials to attend.

But since it was a conference organized by Professor Qiao, if everyone working at the institute could attend, wouldn’t that set the bar a little low?

So, what she was always curious about was, what role exactly did Qiao Jing play in the institute?

Regarding Su Manhan’s question, Qiao Jing didn’t say much; he just gave a faint “Hmm.”

Since Qiao Jing didn’t elaborate, Su Manhan didn’t press further. She had asked before, but Qiao Jing had not responded. She didn’t want to force him to reveal it.

When Qiao Jing wanted to speak, he would naturally do so.

The group chatted idly for a while.

Su Manhan glanced at the time and stood up.

“I still have to go have afternoon tea with the other ladies this afternoon. Nanqing and I will head back first, okay?”

She didn’t want to be the third wheel anymore between the two, leaving them some private world to create opportunities for her son.

Zhan Nanqing also stood up and walked behind Su Manhan.

She just couldn’t stand it anymore.

Her brother had been staring at Qiao Jing the whole time, his eyes almost glued to him, completely oblivious to her mom and her presence.

So, it was better not to stay and be superfluous.

Qiao Jing stood up and walked them to the door.

On her way out, Zhan Nanqing accidentally caught a glimpse of the high-collared sweater Qiao Jing was wearing.

Wait a minute.

Did she see a hint of red?

What was that?

Before she could get a clear look, Su Manhan had already led her out of the door.

A thought suddenly popped into Zhan Nanqing’s mind, something red around the neck…

Could it have been her brother’s doing?!

Such a mark, could it possibly mean…

As an idea sprang to her mind, her eyes widened, and she looked at Su Manhan excitedly.
