Pregnant After Healing the Alpha

Chapter 583: Chapter 572: Following Behind Qiao Jing

Zhan Qipei reluctantly withdrew his gaze and quickly walked to the kitchen, pouring a glass of cold water to cool down.

However, his gaze uncontrollably drifted toward the direction of the bathroom. When he saw that faintly discernible shadow behind the door again, his grip on the glass gradually tightened, his fingertips turning slightly white.

His Adam’s apple bobbed again, knowing that if he kept looking, something would happen.

He took a deep breath, pursed his thin lips, and struggled to withdraw his gaze from the bathroom. Just as he was about to head back to his room, the bathroom door suddenly opened.

Qiao Jing, while drying her hair, stepped out from the bathroom, immediately meeting Zhan Qipei’s intense gaze.

She paused, glanced at the clock on the wall, and noted that about ten minutes had passed since she had started her shower.

"Have you been standing here the whole time?"

She had thought that Zhan Qipei had left to attend to his own matters, yet his posture suggested that he had been standing in the kitchen for a while.

Zhan Qipei coughed, picked up his water glass, and walked toward his room.

"No, I was about to go back to work."

He was still not completely calm, and he absolutely mustn’t let Qiao Jing find out.

Qiao Jing watched his slightly hurried retreating figure, her eyebrows lightly furrowed, her face full of confusion.

What was going on with this guy?

Why was he behaving so strangely?

She couldn’t drive him away before, but now he had become more conscious on his own?

The last time he had stood outside the bathroom, Zhan Qipei had left on his own, and now he had left of his own accord again?

How could she not think it was not a case of Zhan Qipei suddenly developing a conscience, but rather that he was hiding something from her?

Qiao Jing didn’t think much further; if Zhan Qipei wasn’t bothering her, that was for the best.
