Chapter 523: Chapter 512: Does Xu Moqian Know as Well?

Zhan Nanqing nodded slightly and leaned back in her chair.

“Do you know if her stomach is still hurting?”

She was now probing without any hope, just to see whether Lu Zijin knew about Qiao Jing’s pregnancy.

What if…

Lu Zijin frowned, placing the examination sheet on the table.

“She’s fine now after receiving an IV and has been transferred to rest in the ward. The thing I want to know is, Qiao Jing has been pregnant for almost four months; you are aware of this, right?”

Zhan Nanqing nodded again with an ashen face.

As expected, what was inevitable had come after all.

“Yeah, I’m aware, but you can’t tell anyone else about this, especially not big-mouths like Lu Zijiao, apart from my brother and me.”

Since she could no longer hide it from Lu Zijin, she absolutely could not let Lu Zijiao find out.

After all, Lu Zijiao was known as the megaphone of the Imperial Capital, aware of every piece of gossip.

If Lu Zijiao got wind of it, not even a night would pass before everyone in the Imperial Capital would know about Qiao Jing’s pregnancy.

Lu Zijin’s forehead creased deeper as he held the report, applying force to it so that the paper was slightly crumpled under his fingers.

“Regarding the pregnancy, currently, only I am aware of it in the hospital, and the test results have only passed through my hands.”

When he heard that Qiao Jing was almost four months pregnant, to say there was no stir in his heart would be a lie.

After all, he had cherished Qiao Jing for so many years.

He had thought that by choosing to stay friends with Qiao Jing, her relationship with Zhan Qipei would not progress so quickly. Yet, now she was nearly four months pregnant.

This meant that three months ago, Qiao Jing and Zhan Qipei had already…

A bitter smile appeared on Lu Zijin’s face at this thought.

In the end, he had never stood a chance, but he had no one to blame but himself.

He was a coward, a chicken who didn’t dare to express his feelings.
