Chapter 743: Chapter 732: Someone Secretly Brings Her Food in the Middle of the Night

He had even threatened Qiao Jing with withholding meals, but she still refused to agree with him.

Frank was also closely following John at this moment, closely monitoring Qiao Jing.

"Mr. John, I think Professor Qiao might not yet realize the seriousness of the situation. When she doesn’t have breakfast tomorrow morning, she might change her mind," Frank suggested.

John, silently watching the screen, finally made up his mind.

"Let’s do as you suggest, starve her for one night."

At one in the morning, Qiao Jing was awoken by her stomach growling incessantly.

She slowly furrowed her brows, intending to close her eyes and continue sleeping.

But during this time, her stomach still kept growling nonstop.

She eventually couldn’t endure it any longer and sat up in bed.

Qiao Jing pressed her hand against her stomach and took a few seconds to fully wake up.

Only then did she slowly recall that she had been too busy escaping today, hadn’t eaten properly, and dinner had been only a few bites before she started looking for a way out.

"Grrrrr—"

Another wave of hunger passed through her, and Qiao Jing’s stomach was drumming nonstop.

She had no choice but to get out of bed and walked over to the laboratory bench.

Qiao Jing looked at the jars and bottles on the bench, including some plants, with tightly knitted brows.

Carrying three babies in her stomach, she needed to eat something to fill her belly; certain plants might not only provide nutrition for the babies but could also help fill her up a bit.

However... if John and his people planned not to send her breakfast tomorrow morning, as the two men had mentioned, she might end up not eating.

If she went a long time without food, just relying on these plants to fill her stomach could somewhat affect the children.

Perhaps she could reassess the situation tomorrow and then pretend to be cooperative.
