Bab 25: Chapter 24 Madam Zhan's Awareness!

Qiao Jing was first stunned, then looked up and when she saw Zhan Qipei, her expression clearly turned into a daze.

Lu Zijin awkwardly retracted his outstretched hand, standing at the door with his mouth wide open.

The atmosphere suddenly turned a bit eerie.

"You—" Just as Qiao Jing started to speak, she was interrupted by Zhan Qipei's furious voice.

"Come with me!"

Without allowing for explanations, Zhan Qipei grabbed Qiao Jing's hand and forcefully pulled her to his side.

Qiao Jing's forehead knocked against the man's shoulder, causing a faint pain.

Zhan Qipei looked at Qiao Jing's slightly reddened forehead, instinctively furrowing his brows, and his irritation increased.

"Are you okay?" Lu Zijin asked, looking at Qiao Jing with concern that nearly spelled "heartache" across his face.

Seeing Lu Zijin like this, Zhan Qipei yanked Qiao Jing behind him and took a step forward, blocking Lu Zijin's line of sight.
