Pregnant After Healing the Alpha

Chapter 600: Chapter 589: Why is Xu Hongzu So Kind to Qiao Jing?

"Oh, think whatever you want."

Right now, she just wanted to rush home, otherwise Zhan Qipei, seeing how late it was getting, would not only grumble at her but would certainly come out looking for her.

If Zhan Qipei were to find out about her masquerading as a man, the dog of a man would most likely get jealous again.

Loo Chao felt as if he had punched into cotton candy— he had said all those words men hated most, yet Qiao Linting remained so calm, even saying he could think whatever he wanted?

Any of those words he’d thrown out just before would incite him to beat someone until they were searching the ground for their teeth, yet there Qiao Linting was, casually looking at his phone?!

Was that even a man?

Just then, a voice they both recognized sounded from behind them.

Professor Xu had just left the restaurant and was saying goodbye to his friends.

"Old Liu, Old Tang, let’s meet up again next time!"

Turning his head, Loo Chao saw that it was indeed Professor Xu, his expression brightening as he glanced at Qiao Jing, who was waiting for a taxi nearby.

"Qiao Linting, today you really lucked out coming with Zhan Nanqing to the right place. You even ran into Elder Xu— oh no, my mistake, you, a nobody without status, probably don’t even recognize Elder Xu. Let me tell you about him— Elder Xu is second only to Professor Qiao in the agricultural industry. I’m quite acquainted with him. Plus, I’ve even met Professor Qiao in person!"

He could finally regain some face in front of Qiao Linting; otherwise, he would have lost face in front of a poor nobody today!

Although he wasn’t very close with Elder Xu, at least Elder Xu recognized his family’s elders, and he would definitely give him face in a bit.

Upon hearing Professor Xu’s voice, a flash of surprise swept over Qiao Jing’s face for a second, but after listening to Loo Chao, she couldn’t help but look at him speechlessly.

How could she possibly not recognize Professor Xu? She knew him from a time when she didn’t even know where Loo Chao was.

And, when had she, as Professor Qiao, ever met Loo Chao?

After saying this, Loo Chao immediately ran up to Professor Xu.
