Chapter 322: Chapter 312: Zhan Qipei Clings to Qiao Jing Again

The people outside left the doorway of the hospital room, intending to continue their conversation in the conference room.

Jiang Ling returned to the hospital bed and sat, frowning.

During the conversation, she listened to the consideration the senior professors had for Qiao Jing. However, Qiao Jing wasn’t the least bit arrogant because of it.

Furthermore, Qiao Jing spoke in a very polite tone, treated the senior professors with great respect, and answered all their questions individually.

Someone with high status and exquisite medical skills like Qiao Jing wouldn’t be swayed by just a few words.

Jiang Ling recalled how tenderly Zhan Qipei cared for Qiao Jing.

No matter how she looked at it, it didn’t seem like what Lou Xinrou had said, that Qiao Jing shamelessly clung to Zhan Qipei.

Instead, she felt it was Zhan Qipei who doted on Qiao Jing. He regarded Qiao Jing highly.

She initially thought Qiao Jing was the mistress, and that Lou Xinrou and Zhan Qipei were a match made in heaven, but now she reconsidered.

Before Zhan Qipei got married, he had never been with Lou Xinrou, so where did the idea of a mistress come from?

Moreover, she had heard that it was a marriage arranged by their parents, not something Qiao Jing had agreed to willingly.

Looking at it this way, the situation between Zhan Qipei and Qiao Jing was completely different from what she knew.

Jiang Ling felt mixed emotions, thinking back on all that Lou Xinrou had told her, which now seemed utterly unfounded.

The door of the hospital room was pushed open again.

Jiang Ling looked up and saw Lou Xinrou entering, her frown deepened.

Lou Xinrou, seeing Jiang Ling’s furrowed brow, worriedly started to ask.

“What happened? What happened? How do you feel?”

Jiang Ling stared at Lou Xinrou for a long while and then shook her head.

“It’s nothing.”

Lou Xinrou breathed a sigh of relief.

“Good it’s nothing. I came to see how you were and even brought some soup for you to drink.”

Jiang Ling glanced at the vacuum flask that Lou Xinrou brought and wrestled internally.

She hesitated for a long time before finally asking the other party.

“Was it Qiao Jing who pushed me down then?”

Lou Xinrou’s actions froze momentarily and her expression darkened for an instant.

Damn it, even Jiang Ling had started suspecting that incident?

But from her words, she must not have seen the security footage yet, or else she wouldn’t be asking her that.

After setting down the items, she sat beside Jiang Ling and took her hand, adopting a sisterly demeanor.

“Actually, I didn’t see clearly either, but I think she wouldn’t be so petty as to push you just because of a few words. It’s not likely.”

Jiang Ling stared at Lou Xinrou semi-suspiciously as she continued speaking.

“There shouldn’t be such cruel people in the world, but don’t worry, we will continue to investigate this matter. For now, have some soup.”

Jiang Ling was not dumb; she could hear the implicit meaning in Lou Xinrou’s words. Listening to this, it sounded like Qiao Jing had a bigger motive.

Was it really Qiao Jing who had pushed her?

While she pondered, images of Qiao Jing pulling her back at the stairs and helping her with surgery and postoperative checks flooded her mind.

She became even more conflicted and suspicious. Could Qiao Jing really have pushed her?

While the two chatted in the hospital room, someone stood outside.

It was none other than Zhan Nanqing.

Zhan Nanqing had initially planned to visit Jiang Ling but ended up hearing Lou Xinrou’s words just then. Her face turned stern, and she did not go in.

In the security footage, Qiao Jing hadn’t laid a hand on anyone. And now Lou Xinrou was still saying “probably”?

Zhan Nanqing stood quietly outside the door, hearing Lou Xinrou speak again.

“Don’t think too much about it; the fact that you’re safe is all that matters.”

Lou Xinrou noticed another chair on the other side of the hospital bed and asked, puzzled.

“Did someone just come by?”

Jiang Ling nodded and opened the thermos.

“Yes, President Zhan and Qiao Jing were here just now.”

Upon hearing they had come together, Lou Xinrou’s face immediately darkened, and she suddenly felt a gaze on her.

She knew it was Jiang Ling looking at her, and quickly reverted to her usual expression, tinged with some sadness.

“They came together? Why is Qiao Jing clinging to Brother Pei again…”

Jiang Ling noticed the fleeting sullenness on Lou Xinrou’s face, which was starkly different from her usual gentle demeanor, making her feel somewhat alienated.

Upon hearing Lou Xinrou’s remark, she was stunned, and images of Zhan Qipei and Qiao Jing together flashed through her mind again.

It wasn’t Qiao Jing clinging to Zhan Qipei at all; it was entirely the man’s unrequited advances toward the woman, nothing like what Lou Xinrou had suggested.

The things Lou Xinrou had once told her had completely misled her about Qiao Jing.

She had thought Qiao Jing was the mistress, intruding on the relationship between Zhan Qipei and Lou Xinrou, but the reality was entirely different.

But why would Lou Xinrou lie to her?

Standing outside the door, Zhan Nanqing felt angry and somewhat sad after hearing this.

Why would Lou Xinrou speak about Qiao Jing like this? It wasn’t at all what she said in front of her.

Was Lou Xinrou deliberately pretending in front of her, deceiving her?

In her presence, Lou Xinrou would never speak so harshly, and anyone with eyes could see it was her brother who was pestering Qiao Jing.

How did it become Qiao Jing pestering her brother when it came to Lou Xinrou?

Zhan Nanqing couldn’t help but feel increasingly disappointed in Lou Xinrou, continuing to listen to the conversation inside.

Jiang Ling didn’t respond to Lou Xinrou’s claim about Qiao Jing pestering, but instead repetitively brought up the earlier question.

“Was it really Qiao Jing who pushed me down? Did you see it?”

Because she recalled a very important point that made her subconsciously think it was Qiao Jing who pushed her, she needed to verify it again with Lou Xinrou.

Lou Xinrou hadn’t expected Jiang Ling to insist on this matter, and her face showed some discomfort, then she feigned an innocent expression.

“Everything happened so fast at that moment, I didn’t see clearly.”

She couldn’t outright say it was Qiao Jing who pushed Jiang Ling; that would be too deliberate.

Jiang Ling eyed Lou Xinrou suspiciously, because she vividly remembered being pushed by Lou Xinrou, at that instant, she heard Lou Xinrou yelling.

“Qiao Jing, why did you push Jiang Ling?”

Thinking of this, Jiang Ling couldn’t help but ask.

“If you didn’t see clearly, why did you shout then, saying she pushed me?”

Lou Xinrou was taken aback, her face turning ugly, as she hadn’t expected there to be a flaw there.

Jiang Ling, why did she have to remember that particular sentence so clearly?!

Lou Xinrou composed herself, momentarily at a loss for how to respond to Jiang Ling, but the latter was still staring at her.

Lou Xinrou bit her lip and gave a hesitant answer.

“At that time, just the three of us there, I saw Qiao Jing raise her hand like she was about to push you, but I couldn’t see clearly.

I also remembered our altercation in the store with her, and I subconsciously thought she did it with resentment in her heart.”

Standing outside the door, Zhan Nanqing couldn’t bear to listen any longer; she was incensed, as the conversation clearly framed Qiao Jing as the culprit.

But the surveillance showed no such motion from Qiao Jing, rather it was Lou Xinrou!

Lou Xinrou’s current statement undoubtedly aimed to make Jiang Ling believe she was pushed by Qiao Jing.

Zhan Nanqing pulled out her phone, opened the surveillance app, and walked into the hospital room with a cold face.

The two inside the room were startled by the sudden entrance of Zhan Nanqing.

Zhan Nanqing didn’t even look at Lou Xinrou, but pulled out her phone.
