Pregnant After Healing the Alpha

Chapter 499: Chapter 488: Did Pingping’s Father Come Knocking? Chapter 499: Chapter 488: Did Pingping’s Father Come Knocking? The next morning.

Qiao Jing had set an earlier alarm last night with the intention of preparing breakfast before Zhan Qipei woke up.

But as soon as she stepped out of her room, she smelled a delicious aroma coming from the kitchen.

Qiao Jing’s temples throbbed as she quickly made her way to the kitchen.

At that moment, Zhan Qipei was carrying a bowl of Bird’s Nest porridge out of the kitchen, and his dark eyes brightened when he saw Qiao Jing.

“You’re awake? Come have breakfast.”

Seeing Zhan Qipei hustling around, Qiao Jing’s eyes instantly filled with frustration, and her tone unintentionally grew heavier.

“Didn’t I tell you last night to get some proper rest? I said I would make breakfast this morning. You’ve hardly slept for three hours since yesterday. Do you want to ascend to heaven and become a fairy?”

She had specifically set her alarm half an hour earlier to prevent Zhan Qipei from sneaking out to help her with breakfast.

But it was no use. She got up early, and this damn man got up even earlier than she did.

Moreover, this porridge must have taken at least an hour to cook, proving Zhan Qipei had woken up earlier than she had imagined.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became.

No… it’s probably not just one night of poor sleep.

From the increasingly prominent dark circles under Zhan Qipei’s eyes, it was clear that this collaboration had caused him more than just a couple of sleepless nights, and she just happened to run into him last night.

Zhan Qipei hooked up the corners of his mouth, revealing a smile.

“You can be the fairy, and I can be the civilian under your control. How about that?”

He was trying to change the subject, as Qiao Jing’s words at the beginning had unwittingly made him feel guilty.

Because he really couldn’t find any excuses. Could he say he got up at six in the morning to make porridge?
