Pregnant After Healing the Alpha

Chapter 454: Chapter 443 Misunderstanding Ferments Chapter 454: Chapter 443 Misunderstanding Ferments As Zhan Qipei was about to leave, Zhan Yunyu spoke up and stopped him.

“Qipei, where do you live? I’ll come over tomorrow morning after I wake up to visit my niece-in-law. I wasn’t able to make it back for your wedding, so I’d like to pay her a visit,”

She was intensely curious about Qiao Jing. Her famously unyielding cousin had actually bloomed after meeting Qiao Jing.

Her rather stern and easily irritable sister-in-law had also showered Qiao Jing with praises, which made her all the more eager to see Qiao Jing in person.

Especially considering her hot-tempered uncle who, she heard, was exceedingly protective of Qiao Jing, and it was he who had brought Qiao Jing and Zhan Qipei together.

She really wanted to see what was so exceptional about this Qiao Jing that she had captured the hearts of the Zhan family.

Zhan Qipei unlocked the room door and glanced back at Zhan Yunyu’s ankle.

“If your foot gets better tomorrow, you can come over, we’re now staying at Nantai Apartment…”

He had hardly been home all day, and just as he finished work in the afternoon and thought of rushing back, he received a call from Zhan Yunyu.

He was now in a hurry to get home to see Qiao Jing, not having time to linger any longer with Zhan Yunyu.

Half an hour later.

Zhan Qipei unlocked his home to find it shrouded in darkness except for the soft yellow light of a night lamp in the living room.

The two little ones on the sofa had already fallen asleep, but the person he yearned for was nowhere to be seen.

Zhan Qipei gathered his misty brows and tiptoed to Qiao Jing’s room door.

He peeked through the door crack and saw the incandescent light inside, knowing Qiao Jing hadn’t fallen asleep yet.

Because she would switch to a night light when she went to sleep.

Just as Zhan Qipei was about to turn the doorknob and enter, he suddenly remembered the light sweat on his body.

He withdrew his hand, returned to his room to find some clean clothes, and decided to take a shower before going to see Qiao Jing.

He had barely seen Qiao Jing today and now just wanted to see her soon.

When Zhan Qipei had finished showering and came back to Qiao Jing’s room door, he noticed the light inside had dimmed, and a warm, yellow glow peeked through the door crack.

Zhan Qipei knew Qiao Jing was preparing to sleep, his dark eyes dimming slightly.

Aside from breakfast that morning, he had only exchanged a few words with Qiao Jing during that recent phone call and hadn’t said anything else.
