章節 303: Chapter 293: Lou Xinrou is About to Bump into Qiao Jing's Belly

Zhan Qipei looked at his sister's nervous expression and felt even more puzzled inside.

"How hadn't I noticed before that you and Qiao Jing were so close?" he asked.

This question from Zhan Qipei was exactly what Lou Xinrou wanted to ask. She stared at Zhan Nanqing with a complex look, tinged with a bit of gloom.

She had long noticed that Zhan Nanqing's feelings toward Qiao Jing were different and no longer aligned with hers, although she hadn't mentioned it before.

Zhan Nanqing paused, looked guiltily at Qiao Jing, and then made up a random excuse.

"What could I do? Grandpa is so protective of her. He got so angry over that incident with mom, insisting that she apologize to Qiao Jing.

If I didn't help her move the box, what if she got hurt? What would happen if Grandpa scolded me? Would you, Brother, stand up for me then?"

The excuse seemed far-fetched, and Zhan Qipei still felt it was very strange.
