Pregnant After Healing the Alpha

Chapter 616: Chapter 605: Using Qiao Jing to Hurt Zhan Qipei

The assistant hurried in, sweating with urgency, and looked at Wu Xirui.

"Fifth Master, there’s a problem with a project, and the other party is asking us to come over for a meeting right now."

Upon hearing the assistant’s words, Wu Xirui furrowed his brows, and his smile faded slightly.

"Which partnership?"

He had finally gotten some alone time with Qiao Jing; he wouldn’t go unless it was an important partnership.

The assistant answered anxiously:

"It’s—"

Before he could finish speaking, he realized Qiao Jing was still in the office and glanced at her with some difficulty.

After catching the assistant’s glance, Qiao Jing stood up with an indifferent expression, ready to leave the office.

"You two talk, I’ll come back for a follow-up next time."

But before she could take a step, she heard the sound of Wu Xirui rising to his feet.

"Wait."

Qiao Jing furrowed her brows instinctively, sidestepping, and successfully avoiding the hand Wu Xirui tried to grab her with.

Wu Xirui grasped at air, pausing briefly before quickly regaining his composure and looking at Qiao Jing with a smiling eye.

"No need to go, just sit here."

After saying this, Wu Xirui’s gaze darkened, and he glanced at the assistant by his side.

He wanted Qiao Jing to know he trusted her, perhaps to use it as a way to draw closer to her, and besides, the recent projects had no secrets; discussing them in front of Qiao Jing would be harmless.

The assistant realized his mistake and quickly lowered his head.

Qiao Jing knit her brows together and slowly spoke:

"We’ll do the follow-up next time."

Even though Wu Xirui was showing trust in her, she didn’t need his trust. She had no interest in Wu Xirui’s company’s projects nor in staying to listen to their conversation.
