Chapter 535: Chapter 524: The Real Divine Doctor Jing Is Right Before Your Eyes

Qiao Jing showed an extremely helpless smile and turned to look at Zhan Nanqing.

“I’m just going back to pack my things.”

Following her every step made her feel like a disobedient child who needed to be supervised just to eat.

Zhan Nanqing shook her head, stubbornly following behind Qiao Jing.

“I’ll help you pack, and then we’ll go eat together.”

She had an important task on her shoulders, and she had to make sure she completed this task of supervising Qiao Jing’s meals well.

If something like yesterday were to happen again, the consequences would be unimaginable.

After all, she had promised her brother to supervise Qiao Jing’s meals.

Seeing Zhan Nanqing so adamant, Qiao Jing shook her head helplessly, then quickly returned to her study to pack her things.

After packing, Qiao Jing prepared to head to the cafeteria to eat.

Zhan Nanqing, seeing that Qiao Jing was finally ready to have a meal, relaxed her tensed nerves.

“Qiao Jing, let’s go eat at a restaurant outside, there are a lot of people in the institute’s cafeteria.”

Although Qiao Jing, as Professor Qiao, could get her food without having to wait in line, she knew Qiao Jing’s personality well–Qiao Jing would certainly queue up with other researchers.

Queuing would take a long time, and to be more convenient, she usually went straight to an outside restaurant to eat.

Qiao Jing shook her head, just about to continue to the cafeteria, when she received a call from Su Manhan.

“Hello? Madam Zhan?”

Having just dealt with the “Divine Doctor Jing” matter that morning, she wondered if something had happened again now that she was receiving this call.

Su Manhan’s voice came from the other end.

“Qiao Jing, I’m at the entrance of the institute right now, come out for a bit, I’ve cooked some food for you.”

Surprised showed in the depth of Qiao Jing’s eyes, then she suddenly remembered Su Manhan asking her about recipes yesterday.

As Su Manhan heard no response, she asked with confusion:

“Qiao Jing? Can you hear me? I specifically made those dishes you told me about yesterday. Eat more to put on some weight, okay?”

Qiao Jing responded and quickened her pace.

“Okay, I’m coming out now.”

In truth, she didn’t know how to interact with the Zhan family. She was more worried that now they were being so good to her, if in the future she still couldn’t accept Zhan Qipei, wouldn’t it mean she had let down their kindness?

But she knew she couldn’t refuse Su Manhan nor could she let her stand outside holding the lunch boxes for too long.

Zhan Nanqing saw Qiao Jing answer a phone call and walk outside, looking at her curiously.

“What’s going on? Did my brother come over? I told you, if you don’t eat properly, my brother would definitely come over every day to take you for meals.”

Qiao Jing turned to look at Zhan Nanqing, and said helplessly:

“It’s Madam Zhan who has come over.”

Zhan Nanqing was stunned, her face filled with question marks.

“My mother? Why did she come?”

Upon arriving at the institute’s entrance, they saw Su Manhan standing at the door holding several exquisite lunch boxes.

Seeing them come out, Su Manhan’s face lit up with a smile and quickly stepped forward to Qiao Jing, handing her the lunch boxes.

“Qiao Jing, take this back and eat it, oh, right! I also cooked Qipei’s portion, why don’t you bring it to Qipei’s company and eat with him? I’ll have the driver take you there.”

Although she hadn’t found the real Divine Doctor Jing this morning, she could still improve her son’s health by cooking medicinal food for him to drink.

Her son was fine in every aspect except his kidneys, which were failing him and driving her, an anxious mother, to the edge!

Su Manhan took one of the thermos containers out, specifically separating it from the other lunch boxes.

“This is the soup I cooked for Qipei, don’t mix it up with anything else.”

Curious about what soup Su Manhan had concocted, Qiao Jing reached out to open the thermal jug and was immediately greeted by a strong scent of Chinese medicine.

She sniffed and instantly recognized it as a herbal concoction specially designed to strengthen a man’s kidneys and virility.

It seemed Su Manhan had not given up on the idea of nourishing Qipei’s kidneys, but now she simply had to grudgingly accept it as reality and reinforce the symptom of his supposed kidney inadequacy.

Zhan Nanqing, seeing that Su Manhan’s eyes didn’t acknowledge her presence, felt a tinge of jealousy. The strong aroma of the Chinese medicine provided her with the perfect opportunity to break into their conversation.

“Mom, what have you concocted for my brother this time?”

Su Manhan sighed deeply, fatigue evident on her face.

“Obviously, it’s for your brother’s health. It’s unfortunate that we haven’t been able to find the real Divine Doctor Jing to treat your brother, so I can only try to improve his health through these herbal soups.”

Hearing Su Manhan consistently suggesting that Zhan Qipei had kidney issues, Zhan Nanqing struggled to suppress the corners of her mouth from turning up.

Her brother was truly miserable, always believed by his mother to have health problems.

Little did she know that the real Divine Doctor Jing was far away on the horizon, yet so close at hand.

Qiao Jing closed the lid of the thermal jug, agreeing to the task.

“Madam Zhan, I’ll just take a taxi there.”

She had planned to eat in the cafeteria, but this little interruption meant she would now have to deliver the meal to Zhan Corporation and dine with Qipei.

Zhan Nanqing frowned and complained:

“Mom, I was originally planning to have lunch with Qiao Jing, and now you’ve stolen her away.”

Su Manhan poked at Zhan Nanqing’s face with disdain.

“How about I come with you then?”

Having said that, she smiled at Qiao Jing.

“I’ll have the driver take you there, and I’ll take Nanqing to a nearby restaurant for a meal.”

She purposefully put her son’s and Qiao Jing’s meals together to create more opportunities for the couple to spend time together.

Couples need to spend more time with each other to foster their relationship.

Su Manhan, taking Zhan Nanqing by the arm, headed in another direction, leaving the driver with Qiao Jing.

In the lobby of Zhan Corporation.

Qiao Jing once again arrived at Qipei’s company, some time having passed since she had last come to help out.

She noticed that everyone in the lobby was busy with something, not sure what they were doing, and a few employees dressed as anime characters even walked past.

With a puzzled look, Qiao Jing observed these people for a moment before turning her attention back and heading straight for the reception desk.

“Hello, I’m here to see Zhan Qipei.”

The receptionist was taken aback upon seeing Qiao Jing and instantly recognized her, exclaiming in shock:

“Miss Qiao?!”

She remembered the scene the last time Qiao Jing was at the company, and how President Zhan had protected his wife–it was so domineering!

Such a scene out of novels had unexpectedly unfolded before her eyes in real life.

And Miss Qiao was just as beautiful as the heroines described in stories, not to mention she had a rich and handsome husband. She was almost envious to death, turning into a green-eyed monster on the spot.

Qiao Jing nodded.

“Yes, it’s me. Do I need to make an appointment to go up?”

The employee immediately shook her head and pointed to Zhan Qipei’s private elevator.

“Miss Qiao, you can take that elevator directly up. President Zhan told me if you were to come to the company, I should inform you that the elevator password is your birthday.”
