Chapter 457: Chapter 446: Zhan Qipei’s Anxiety Chapter 457: Chapter 446: Zhan Qipei’s Anxiety Zhan Qipei’s thin lips pressed tightly into a straight, curveless line of ice as he slowly began to speak.

“Because of some mishap, I missed the time to see her, and I haven’t seen her all day. Let her take my call.”

He now desperately wanted to hear Qiao Jing’s voice, otherwise, he was utterly unable to concentrate on his work.

At this moment, he hadn’t absorbed a single word of the document before him.

Zhan Nanqing felt a bit troubled as she stealthily glanced at Qiao Jing, who was engrossed in her work.

“Brother, but she’s working right now, I don’t know if she’ll want to talk to you.”

She knew all too well that her sister-in-law hated being disturbed while working.

Zhan Qipei’s low voice sounded again.

“Just tell her if she doesn’t want to, then never mind.”

He couldn’t force Qiao Jing to interrupt her work; he could wait until he got home tonight.

Zhan Nanqing furrowed her brows, hesitating for a while.

“Alright.”

After hanging up the phone, Zhan Nanqing slowly made her way to Qiao Jing’s side.

She hesitated for a long time, occasionally sneaking peeks at Qiao Jing.

Should she really ask Qiao Jing to put down her work and chat with her brother on the phone?

Knowing her brother’s temperament, he would certainly want to talk to Qiao Jing for a long time.

Qiao Jing noticed the intermittent glances being cast her way and turned slightly to look.

“What is it?”

Zhan Nanqing was taken aback, not expecting Qiao Jing to notice her.

“Ah… Nothing… How did you know I was looking at you?”

Qiao Jing was somewhat speechless and twitched the corner of her mouth.

“Your glances could practically burn a hole through me, I had no choice but to notice. If there’s something you need to say, just say it.”

If she hadn’t noticed Zhan Nanqing’s looks, it would mean she had grown up for nothing.

Zhan Nanqing furrowed her brows and stammered:

“It’s just… my brother asked you to take a call.”

Qiao Jing’s hand paused.

“Okay.”
