Pregnant After Healing the Alpha-Chapter 607 - 596: Qiao Jing Was Mistaken for a Delivery Person

Chapter 607: Chapter 596: Qiao Jing Was Mistaken for a Delivery Person

The pitter-patter of water sounds came from the bathroom, and Qiao Jing lifted her eyes toward it.

A black, blurry figure was moving behind the bathroom door.

Qiao Jing furrowed her brows, with a hint of confusion emerging in the depths of her eyes.

What’s with this damn man, eating only that bitten orange?

Then rushing to take a shower??

After a moment of silence, she didn’t think any further, withdrew her gaze, and returned to her own room.

When she heard the sound of Zhan Qipei returning to his room, she picked up the change of clothes she had prepared earlier that morning.

Arriving at the bathroom, she suddenly realized that there was no steam at all inside.

Could it be that Zhan Qipei had taken a cold shower?

Qiao Jing pursed her red lips and thought carefully, what Zhan Qipei showered with was none of her business.

Besides, it could be that he felt too hot.

After all, the weather was getting warmer now.

She withdrew her thoughts and turned on the shower.

——

The next day at noon, Qiao Jing walked out of the research institute, ready to head to Wonderful Hall for her clinic hours.

As she waited for a car by the roadside, she suddenly heard someone calling her name.

"Qiao Jing!"

She found the voice somewhat familiar, as if she had heard it somewhere before.

Just as Qiao Jing turned her head, she saw a woman dressed as a delivery person, riding an electric bike toward her and finally stopping it in front of her.

She recognized the person at a glance.

"Are you Liu Xiaoling?"

Liu Xiaoling showed Qiao Jing a simple smile.

"Yes, it’s me."

Qiao Jing nodded gently, revealing a faint smile.

"You now work in the city?"

Liu Xiaoling was her neighbor back in the countryside and had helped her out quite a bit, often bringing her homemade sausages and even looking after her cornfield.

Liu Xiaoling glanced down at the delivery uniform she was wearing and scratched her head somewhat embarrassedly.

"Right, my brother needs to go to school, and the expenses have increased, so I came to deliver food. I didn’t expect to bump into you here."

Qiao Jing could see a hint of embarrassment in Liu Xiaoling, and she spoke softly.

"Delivering food is good, it’s a proper job. Just remember to stay safe while working."

She didn’t believe there was any superiority or inferiority in professions; everyone earned their results through their own efforts. There was no such thing as being better or worse than one another.

So she didn’t want Liu Xiaoling to feel ashamed about working as a delivery person.

The embarrassment on Liu Xiaoling’s face then disappeared as she looked directly at Qiao Jing.

"Let’s not talk about me. Since you moved to the city, I haven’t seen you at all. How have you been, and what do you do for work now?"

Qiao Jing turned to glance at the research institute and then back at Liu Xiaoling.

"I’m doing alright, and I’m also working."

She worked at the research institute, which was also a job, though it was working for herself.

After hearing Qiao Jing’s response, Liu Xiaoling sighed, patting her shoulder.

"Ah, to think that we’re both in the same boat, fellow workers with worker souls, ’All workers are above others.’

Qiao Jing’s smile grew wider when she heard Liu Xiaoling using a popular internet catchphrase.

"That’s good," she said.

As soon as those words were spoken, Liu Xiaoling’s expression suddenly changed, her brow furrowed tightly, her face turned pale, and she immediately covered her stomach.

"Hiss—"

Upon witnessing the scene, Qiao Jing paused before swiftly stepping forward to support Liu Xiaoling and help her off the car.

"What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell somewhere?"

She intended to reach out and take Liu Xiaoling’s pulse, but Liu Xiaoling’s hands were tightly clutching her stomach, making it impossible for Qiao Jing to find her pulse.

Liu Xiaoling bit her teeth, as a dense layer of cold sweat began to form on her forehead. She spoke with difficulty:

"I... I might have... eaten something wrong... my stomach hurts..."

Qiao Jing’s brows furrowed as she contemplated massaging a few acupoints to alleviate the pain, but Liu Xiaoling was in so much pain that she had curled up and slowly squatted down on the ground, leaving Qiao Jing with no way to intervene.

Just as Qiao Jing was about to speak, she was interrupted by Liu Xiaoling’s weak voice.

"I... I need to use the restroom now."

Qiao Jing glanced around and helped Liu Xiaoling slowly rise to her feet.

"I know where the nearby restroom is, I’ll help you get there."

As she spoke, she prepared to guide Liu Xiaoling towards the restroom, but didn’t expect Liu Xiaoling to refuse to go.

Liu Xiaoling wouldn’t take a step and instead walked sluggishly towards her electric scooter.

"No, I still have... one last delivery to make. I’ll go to the restroom after I finish the last delivery... I’m almost out of time."

Qiao Jing’s frown deepened as she quickly stepped forward, opened the delivery box, and took out the last delivery order.

"I’ll deliver this for you, you go to the restroom. Oh, where is this to be delivered?"

She could see that Liu Xiaoling was in a lot of discomfort, and since she didn’t have much to do that afternoon, helping with a delivery wouldn’t be a problem.

Tears of gratitude filled Liu Xiaoling’s eyes as she looked at Qiao Jing and flipped over the delivery slip for her.

"I really can’t thank you enough! This milk tea is... it’s to be delivered to the star club, thankfully it’s not heavy... take my scooter, sorry for the trouble."

Before Qiao Jing could reply, a severe pain struck Liu Xiaoling’s stomach again. She had no choice but to hold her stomach and walk towards the restroom while saying:

"I really can’t hold it in anymore, Qiao Jing, sorry to bother you! I’ve changed my number, my phone is 137..."

After hurriedly giving a string of numbers, she went into the restroom.

In her heart, she still worried whether Qiao Jing had remembered her phone number as she had spoken too quickly.

As she was thinking this, she received a text message on her phone.

"I won’t take your scooter, I’ve taken the key out for you and left it in the corner of the wash basin."

After reading Qiao Jing’s message, Liu Xiaoling sent several messages expressing her gratitude.

At the same time, she marveled in her heart at how exceptional Qiao Jing’s memory was!

Speaking of which, Qiao Jing had always been smarter than their peers since she was little.

Meanwhile, in the taxi.

Qiao Jing looked at the address on the delivery slip, recalling what Zeng Xiangyang had mentioned to her before.

This star club seemed to be the one Lin Yun was affiliated with.

With this thought, Qiao Jing raised her eyebrows slightly and checked the delivery slip on her phone.

"What a coincidence."

Inside the star club’s lobby.

Carrying the milk tea, Qiao Jing surveyed the room and did not spot anyone waiting for a delivery, except for a boy playing games on the sofa.

She knit her brows and took out the delivery slip, then called the person who had placed the order.

But the call was cut off after just a few rings.

Qiao Jing looked at the phone she had just been hung up on with confusion and dialed again.

This time, the call connected, and the voice on the other end overlapped with the voice of the boy playing games in the lobby.

"Is it the milk tea that’s arrived? I’m sitting on the sofa in the lobby, just put it on the table, that’s fine, that’s fine, I’m busy."

Before Qiao Jing could respond, the person on the line hung up the phone.

Without wasting any time, Qiao Jing walked towards the sofa.
