Pregnant After Healing the Alpha-Chapter 496 - 485 Qiao Jing and I Will Not Divorce

Just at this critical moment, the person holding the wine bottle suddenly flew out like a kite with a broken string.

Qiao Jing only heard a “bang,” the sound of flesh colliding with concrete reaching her ears, mixed with the explosion of the glass bottle shattering beside her feet.

A patch of broken glass lay near her feet, which could have easily cut her if she was not careful.

Before she could react to what had happened, she felt a strong and powerful arm wrap around her waist, and then she was lifted into the air.

During a whirlwind of confusion, she found herself in a warm embrace, surrounded by the familiar scent of a man.

Without even looking up, Qiao Jing knew who the person in front of her was.

“Zhan Qipei?”

She could feel Zhan Qipei’s slightly hot hands tightly hugging her waist, protecting her securely as if afraid that she would suffer the slightest injury.

Then, a deep voice came from above her head.

“Mm, I’m here.”

That single sentence from Zhan Qipei gave Qiao Jing an endless sense of security; ripples stirred at the bottom of her phoenix eyes, and a soft spot in her heart sank.

She didn’t say a word, only silently felt the warmth of Zhan Qipei’s embrace for a few seconds before she took the initiative to step out of it.

Zhan Qipei led Qiao Jing away from the area with the broken glass and helped her to the side.

“You wait here; there’s still one person standing.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned his head fiercely toward Blondie, his presence fully ignited, his gaze frosty.

Blondie was so frightened by that incredibly sharp and cold stare that he broke out in goosebumps all over, his legs gave out, and he lay on the ground pretending to be dead.

He could feel that the combined presence of these two people was extraordinarily powerful and intimidating.

If he had felt like he was in an ice cellar just now, then at this moment, he was truly in the eighteenth level of Hell.

Zeng Xiangyang rushed over to Blondie in a flash, lifted his foot, and stamped fiercely on him several times to vent his anger, mercilessly berating:

“Pah! What are you even? Daring to fancy my master? Don’t you even look at yourself in the mirror before bragging that you know this and that? I think you should quit your factory job, wasting the factory’s money and taking up someone else’s place, people like you are just a waste of air when alive, and even the land when dead.”

Blondie was nearly stamped into vomiting blood by Zeng Xiangyang, and hearing the latter curse him with all sorts of new insults made him even angrier.

His expression turned extremely ugly, but with two powerful figures present, he didn’t even dare to get up and could only let Zeng Xiangyang trample him.

When Lin Yun saw Qiao Jing in the arms of another man, he stood frozen in place, staring in disbelief at the two hugging each other.

“Xiao Qiaoqiao! How come you don’t react when just anyone comes to hug you? Are you really that naive and sweet?!”

Back when he was a child and played a prank by accidently grabbing Qiao Jing’s hand, he was immediately struck by Qiao Jing until his hand turned red.

Now some random guy comes to hug her and she doesn’t even resist?

Does that mean he could hug her too?

Qiao Jing extricated herself from Zhan Qipei’s embrace and steadied herself.

“He’s not just anyone. Let me introduce him—this is Zhan Qipei, my husband as recognized by the law, and this is my friend, Lin Yun.”

She had only mentioned to Lin Yun once before that she had a 100-day marriage contract, and neither he nor Zhan Qipei had met each other before. This opportunity seemed like a good time to get to know one another.

However, under the current circumstances, there was no way these two could introduce themselves, so she simply had to do a brief introduction for them.

Lin Yun recalled the scene where Zeng Xiangyang had just informed Zhan Qipei of his identity in the kitchen.

“What do you mean he’s not just anybody? And this is the head of the Zhan Family? He doesn’t look all that impressive to me. But, didn’t you have a 100-day marriage contract? The time is up, and you must be divorced by now, right? So why is he still coming after you?”

While Lin Yun said this, looking at Zhan Qipei’s incomparably handsome face, he felt an indescribable strangeness in his heart.

Upon hearing the word ‘divorce,’ Zhan Qipei’s face instantly darkened, and he shot Lin Yun an unfriendly glance.

“I’m taking my wife home. Do you have a problem with that?”

He could see what Lin Yun was thinking, and he knew he couldn’t let Lin Yun get close to Qiao Jing.

Lin Yun’s brow furrowed, and he stood there, stunned.

“What do you mean? You aren’t divorced yet? But hasn’t the 100 days been over for a while now?”

For some reason, hearing the word ‘husband’ from Qiao Jing’s mouth sounded very grating to him.

He really wanted to go up there and take Qiao Jing away from Zhan Qipei’s side, but these two, standing together, gave off a vibe that nobody else could break through.

Qiao Jing pursed her red lips and was just about to say something when she felt a sudden pain in her abdomen.

She pressed her hands on a few acupoints to alleviate the pain.

“Due to some issues, we haven’t divorced yet. Zhan Qipei, take me back now.”

She needed to go back and rest properly; it wouldn’t be good if she really upset the baby.

Zhan Qipei noticed Qiao Jing’s actions and watched her with concern, quickly extending his hand to steady her waist.

“All right, someone here will take care of this.”

Lin Yun watched their intimate demeanor, his face twisted with displeasure.

“Wait! Xiao Qiaoqiao, are you saying you’re not divorced yet but will be in the future, right?”

He didn’t want to give up so easily, especially since it was just a 100-day marriage contract.

Besides, who else could put up with someone as dense as Qiao Jing?

It wouldn’t take long, they were sure to get a divorce!

Just as Qiao Jing was about to reply, Zhan Qipei beat her to it.

“No.”

Zhan Qipei halted, giving Lin Yun a cold sidelong glance. His thin lips parted, he enunciated each word deliberately:

“No, we won’t get divorced.”

Qiao Jing glanced sideways and saw resolve written in the man’s dark eyes.

It was as if he was certain that they would not get divorced.

Her eyelashes fluttered, and she pushed Zhan Qipei gently to remind him.

“We are currently in a trial phase.”

Zhan Qipei pursed his lips, said nothing, and bent down to scoop Qiao Jing into his arms, striding quickly towards the car.

Lin Yun instinctively took a few steps forward, but by then, the two were already in the car.

“Damn it, you little brat, you better tell me right now, what exactly is the relationship between Xiao Qiaoqiao and this Zhan Qipei?”

Zeng Xiangyang displayed a look of indifference, casually shifting his feet to the side.

He dared not reveal the romantic situation between his cousin and cousin-in-law.

He inadvertently stepped on Blondie, then, seeing his chance, he pressed down a few more times without hesitation.

“Ahh—! You did that on purpose, didn’t you?! They’re gone now, I’ll see what the two of you—”
