Chapter 730: Chapter 719: Being Followed

Qiao Jing pursed her red lips, tapping on the screen to reply:

"You know very well whether you’re faking illness or not, I’ll be coming over tomorrow for your re-examination."

After sending that message, she put away her phone and stopped paying attention to Wu Xirui.

The next day.

Qiao Jing and Zhan Nanqing walked out of the research institute together.

While walking, Zhan Nanqing was scrolling through videos on her phone and became excited when she saw a new tasty shop opened by a certain store, enthusiastically grabbing Qiao Jing’s hand.

"Qiao Jing, are you going straight home later? Oh come on, my brother has things to do at the company today, he won’t come to pick you up, let’s go out and have some fun, shall we?"

Upon hearing Zhan Nanqing’s words, Qiao Jing slightly furrowed her brows, somewhat helplessly saying:

"I have to go and re-examine Wu Xirui later."

Even though she was aware that Wu Xirui claiming to be unwell yesterday was quite likely untrue, it was indeed time for his medical re-examination.

Zhan Nanqing let out an "Ah," then sighed.

"Okay, then can I come with you?"

Even though her family had recently had some business friction with Wu Xirui, it didn’t affect her desire to supervise him and prevent him from getting close to Qiao Jing.

Qiao Jing recalled how Zhan Nanqing looked like she was facing a formidable enemy the last time she encountered Wu Xirui.

Moreover, given the recent unpleasantness between the Zhan family and Wu Xirui, taking Zhan Nanqing along didn’t seem like the correct choice.

So she declined without hesitation.

"I can go by myself."

Zhan Nanqing didn’t insist on following and opened her camera to face herself, planning to tidy up her hair.
