Chapter 500 -489: Zhan Qipei’s Cunning Plan
Before she could ask anything else, Zhan Qipei had already turned and gone back to the living room.
Qiao Jing felt that things were getting stranger and stranger. She knew that when Zhan Qipei was stubborn, even she couldn’t persuade him.
Moreover, Zhan Qipei seemed to be in a good mood when he returned just now?
Was it her illusion?
Without giving it much thought, Qiao Jing entered the elevator.
After leaving the residential complex, Qiao Jing prepared to take out her phone to check where the cab she had hailed was.
As soon as she unlocked her screen to check her messages, she saw that the default lock screen had been replaced with a photo.
It was a close-up of Zhan Qipei’s face, with shiny dark circles under his eyes.
But these dark circles did not detract from Zhan Qipei’s looks; beneath his handsome, arched eyebrows were a pair of deep black eyes, staring straight at the camera, with ambiguous emotions hidden within them. Below were a tall, straight nose and thin lips pressed together, his entire face sharp and angular, as if chiseled by a knife.
Just then, she received a message from Zhan Qipei.
“Don’t you dare change it.”
Qiao Jing was immediately amused by Zhan Qipei’s antics. She knew there was no way Zhan Qipei would be so agreeable and just go to sleep; his mood had been so good earlier because he had changed her phone’s wallpaper.
Now she didn’t know whether to feel comforted that Zhan Qipei had become so easygoing or to be annoyed that the dog of a man had changed her lock screen without permission and had the nerve to message her not to change it back.
How could Zhan Qipei be such a childish man?
As Qiao Jing unlocked her screen to reply to Zhan Qipei’s message, she found that not only the lock screen but also the wallpaper had been changed to the photo she had just taken.
She couldn’t help but twitch the corners of her mouth, opened the chat with Zhan Qipei, and was about to reply when she received another new message.
“If I see that you’ve changed it back when I get home, I’ll change it back again, and we’ll keep doing this, you change once, I change once.”
Zhan Qipei, on the other end, was staring at the screen non-stop, a smirk playing on his lips.
He had changed the wallpaper just so that Qiao Jing could see him wherever she went.
If she could see him every time she opened her phone, she’d certainly think of him.
Seeing Zhan Qipei’s child-like comments, Qiao Jing couldn’t help but roll her eyes, immediately exited the chat box, and decided to ignore Zhan Qipei.
Just as she was about to change both the wallpaper and lock screen back to default, a taxi suddenly stopped in front of her.
Seeing that her taxi had arrived, Qiao Jing had to put away her phone and get into the car to head to the orphanage.
Upon arriving at the entrance of the orphanage, Qiao Jing noticed a rather expensive car parked nearby.
Her cool gaze deepened as she quickly walked into the orphanage.
Qiao Jing went straight to the classroom where Pingping was, only to find Teacher Liu leading Pingping outside.
“Teacher Liu, where’s the assistant?”
Teacher Liu stopped in her tracks and her eyes lit up when she saw Qiao Jing, letting go of Pingping’s hand.
“Miss Qiao, you’re here. The assistant is now in the teacher’s office; after class, I’ll take you there.”
When Pingping saw Qiao Jing, the distressed look on his face finally eased, and he ran up to her side.
“Sister Qiao, you’re here.”
Qiao Jing nodded and, seeing Pingping’s tightly furrowed brow, reached out to smooth it for him.
“Mmh, why the furrowed brow? Don’t you want to go back?”
Her mood also sank at the sight of Pingping’s furrowed brow.
Pingping shook his head, then nodded, murmuring,
“I don’t know, Sister Qiao. I don’t want to leave Anan alone.”
Qiao Jing’s brows furrowed, unsure of what to say for a moment.
When she heard that Pingping’s father wanted to take him back, she had also considered this.
Having grown up together, if Pingping was suddenly claimed and taken away, leaving Anan alone, she would definitely miss the person she was closest to.

Pingping drooped his little head, feeling somewhat dejected.
“Sister Qiao…”
He didn’t want to be claimed and go back, leaving Anan alone.
Qiao Jing understood what Pingping was thinking and reached out to rub his little head.
“Hmm, I’ll first accompany you to go and see.”
She could tell Pingping still longed for his birth family, but also that he couldn’t bear to leave Anan alone.
However, before letting Pingping go back, she had to make sure everything was in order; otherwise, she wouldn’t feel at ease.
Pingping nodded, tightly holding Qiao Jing’s hand, following her toward the office.
Qiao Jing glanced in the direction of Anan’s classroom, asking Teacher Liu beside her.
“Does Anan know about this?”
In the days they had spent together, she could feel that Anan was a child with some girlish airs.
Although her insecurity from being a vagrant had covered it up, it started to show again after meeting her.
So, if Anan knew about this, she was definitely hiding somewhere right now, secretly wiping away tears.
Teacher Liu’s face was filled with distress and concern, telling Qiao Jing about Anan’s situation.
“Anan knows about this, but she hasn’t come looking for Pingping.”
Qiao Jing pursed her red lips, not saying anything more.
Anan probably didn’t come over because she feared she couldn’t control herself from crying when seeing Pingping leave.
Right now her heart was full of worry about Anan’s condition; after all, she was a sensitive little girl.
But judging from the current situation, she had to deal with Pingping’s matter first, then see Anan.
Qiao Jing quickened her pace, arriving hurriedly at the office door.
Teacher Liu opened the door for Qiao Jing, who was stunned by the sight inside.
She had never seen such a scene in all her life, an assistant with a competent demeanor sitting on a chair, surrounded by several bodyguards in black suits.
The assistant had been alone when he came to the welfare institute yesterday, but today he had brought so many bodyguards, appearing as if they were ready to take someone by force.
Qiao Jing furrowed her elegant brows, pulling Pingping to go inside, but found the child standing still, unwilling to move.
She looked at Pingping with confusion, noticing that Pingping was looking toward the end of the corridor.
“What’s wrong?”
Pingping raised his hand to point in the direction of the end of the corridor, speaking softly:
“Sister Qiao, Anan is hiding over there.”
Qiao Jing’s gaze followed the direction Pingping pointed, and indeed she saw a small piece of a skirt at the corner.
The child seemed to realize something and reached out a small hand to pull back the exposed piece of the skirt.
Qiao Jing was amused by Anan’s little action, and she let go of Pingping’s hand.
“Pingping, you go find Anan. Teacher Liu and I will go in first.”
Pingping’s face showed a relieved smile, and his tightly furrowed brows also relaxed.
“Okay!”
Qiao Jing watched Pingping walk to the end of the corridor, then tucked away her smile and went into the office.
The assistant, seeing Qiao Jing enter, pushed his glasses up on the bridge of his nose and reached out his hand.
“You must be Miss Qiao, right? Hello.”
Qiao Jing also extended her hand and shook it politely.
“Yes, that’s me, hello.”
