Pregnant After Healing the Alpha-Chapter 664 - 653: Targeting Qiao Jing

Qiao Jing’s gaze fell on Zhan Nanqing’s phone screen, which displayed a strange text message.

"Nanqing, this is Xinrou. Because you blacklisted my previous number, I had to contact you with another number. I need to talk to you about something. I have discussed it with Auntie Su as well, and I have made up my mind. I will visit Purple Garden tonight to resolve all our past issues, and then I will personally apologize to Qiao Jing."

After reading the message, Qiao Jing realized that Su Manhan had called her back to Purple Garden for this matter.

Without a word, she handed the phone back to Zhan Nanqing, without expressing any opinion.

Although she didn’t quite believe Lou Xinrou’s words, she had already promised Su Manhan to return, and she wouldn’t go back on her word.

Zhan Nanqing furrowed her brows tightly and stared at the message, examining it carefully for a good while.

"Qiao Jing, do you believe what Lou Xinrou said? She actually said she wants to apologize to you and resolve everything from the past?"

She still remembered all the things Lou Xinrou had done before; the woman had no credibility in her eyes anymore.

Now suddenly saying she had thought things over and wanted to personally apologize to Qiao Jing made her suspicious that the offer was not genuine, that it was a trick.

Qiao Jing slightly knitted her brows and pressed her lips together.

"Let’s go back tonight and see."

She wasn’t sure exactly what game Lou Xinrou was playing; they would find out tonight.

If Xinrou was sincere in her apology, then she would decide based on the situation.

In truth, she wasn’t really angry with Lou Xinrou, or rather, she hadn’t taken Lou Xinrou seriously at all.

The only reason she had agreed to return to face this situation was in fact for Zhan Nanqing and Su Manhan.

If it weren’t for her presence, Lou Xinrou and Zhan Nanqing would still be close friends, and also the ideal daughter-in-law candidate in Su Manhan’s eyes. freēwēbηovel.c૦m

Now, however, things had changed.

Of course, her thoughts weren’t out of self-blame or guilt.

It wasn’t her doing that Lou Xinrou had turned out this way.

It was the other party’s own crooked intentions that had led her down the wrong path.

Zhan Nanqing responded with a word of acknowledgment and replied with a single "Okay" before dismissing Lou Xinrou from her mind.

At dusk.

Qiao Jing and Zhan Nanqing arrived together at Purple Garden, and as soon as they entered, they saw Su Manhan sitting on the couch with a deeply furrowed brow and a complex expression.

Lou Xinrou was sitting beside Su Manhan, pouring her tea.

From the corner of her eye, she suddenly noticed the two at the door; her eyes brightened dramatically, and a joyful smile appeared on her face.

"Nanqing, Qiao Jing, you’re here!"

Su Manhan also turned to look at the two, slowly smiling.

"You’re here?"

Zhan Nanqing, without even a glance at Lou Xinrou, only looked towards Su Manhan.

Qiao Jing nodded and sat down on the couch with Zhan Nanqing.

Qiao Jing briefly glanced at Lou Xinrou, then withdrew her gaze to focus on Su Manhan.

"Madam Zhan, did you ask me to come back for something specific?"

In the call that she received, Su Manhan hadn’t made clear why she wanted her to return, so she continued to pretend she didn’t know.

Hearing Qiao Jing’s words, Su Manhan’s brows furrowed even more, her eyes carefully studying Qiao Jing’s expression, tentatively saying:

"Lou Xinrou wants to apologize to you, so I called you back."

When she sent the message to Qiao Jing today, she still felt a bit uneasy, and her worry grew even more when she saw her arrival at the door.

Because she didn’t know if she had done the right thing. After all, Lou Xinrou had done many bad things before, each of which was a betrayal to Qiao Jing, so she was unsure if letting these two meet was the correct choice.

After saying this, Su Manhan sat next to Qiao Jing and lowered her voice, saying,

"Don’t worry, I didn’t easily agree to let Lou Xinrou meet you. I’ve observed her for a while; she has been continuously coming to the Zhan Family. Not only has she helped with many things, but she also confirmed with me repeatedly that she no longer has any feelings for Qipei. She now wants to apologize to us and reconcile, but I will leave this matter to you to handle, I will not interfere."

Zhan Nanqing, sitting beside them, also heard Su Manhan’s words and looked at Lou Xinrou suspiciously.

"Mom, are you sure everything she said is true?"

Why did she somewhat not believe Lou Xinrou’s words?

Su Manhan furrowed her eyebrows and slowly shook her head.

"I guess."

Qiao Jing once again furrowed her beautiful brows and looked at Lou Xinrou with a scrutinizing gaze.

Lou Xinrou met Qiao Jing’s gaze and unconsciously swallowed.

"Qiao Jing, Auntie Su, Nanqing, I was wrong about everything before, I’m sorry!"

After saying this, she stood up and bowed deeply to the three of them.

"I have no thoughts about Qipei now, it was all my fault before, I am very sorry!"

Seeing Lou Xinrou bow, Su Manhan and Zhan Nanqing exchanged looks.

Su Manhan frowned deeply for a while but still did not speak.

She said it wasn’t moving to her would be a lie; after all, Lou Xinrou was someone she had watched grow up, and now seeing the other party apologizing so sincerely, she couldn’t help but be a bit lenient.

Zhan Nanqing’s tightly knitted brows slightly relaxed, and she stealthily glanced at Qiao Jing beside her.

She suddenly remembered the more than twenty years of fun she had with Lou Xinrou; clearly, the other party wasn’t like this before.

But Lou Xinrou had indeed done those things, not only hurting Qiao Jing but also deceiving her for a long time. She had no right to forgive Lou Xinrou on behalf of Qiao Jing.

The mother and daughter still chose to let Qiao Jing handle this matter.

Seeing that Qiao Jing didn’t speak, Su Manhan slowly began,

"Are you sure you won’t do anything like before again?"

Lou Xinrou nodded sincerely, her eyes even glistened with tears, and she said in an earnest tone,

"I promise I will never do anything bad again. Thinking about it carefully now, I realize how foolish and malicious my actions were before, I’m sorry! Auntie Su, Nanqing, Qiao Jing, please give me another chance!"

Qiao Jing pursed her red lips and didn’t respond to Lou Xinrou’s words.

Seeing this, Su Manhan slightly pondered before she spoke again.

"You must apologize to Qiao Jing seriously."

She still remembered how Lou Xinrou had instigated matters between her and Qiao Jing in the past, making her disliking of Qiao Jing intensify even more.

She also hadn’t forgotten that time when Lou Xinrou abandoned her and fled alone, and even though she had apologized now, their relationship would never return to how it was before.

Lou Xinrou immediately nodded, looking very seriously at Qiao Jing and bowed to her again.

"Qiao Jing, it was all my fault before, I’m really sorry! Can you give me another chance?"

After seeing Lou Xinrou’s sincere apology, Su Manhan’s furrowed brows finally relaxed completely, looking towards Qiao Jing beside her.

"Qiao Jing, will you forgive her?"

Her opinion would follow Qiao Jing’s; if Qiao Jing forgave Lou Xinrou, then she and Nanqing could also let bygones be bygones.

But their relationship absolutely wouldn’t return to how it was before since it was a fact that Lou Xinrou had instigated between them and Qiao Jing, causing them to constantly trouble Qiao Jing in the past.

Qiao Jing looked indifferently at Lou Xinrou, parted her red lips, and slowly said,
