Chapter 1057: Chapter 1045: Wailing in Sorrow
In the doctor's expectant gaze, Qiao Jing shook her head and said calmly, “Sorry, | haven't settled in M Country,
just cfor a few days for business. Once it’s over, I'll return home, so | can’t accept your invitation.”
RlSEEy
The doctor showed a look of regret and said somewhat disappointedly, “That's really a shame.”
After a few more simple exchanges with the doctor, Qiao Jing left the hospital.
Not long after she left, Wu Xirui slowly regained consciousness.
He sat up from the hospital bed, looked at the doctor beside him, and asked, “Who sentto the hospital?”
The doctor replied truthfully, “A young girl.”
A young girl?
Wu Xirui immediately recalled the blurry image he had seen in a daze earlier.
Could it be that the girl he saw was really Qiao Jing?
But if it was her, why did she just leave like that?
Why didn’t she wait for him to wake up and say hello before leaving?
After thinking for a bit, Wu Xirui asked another question, “Did she leave any contact information?”
“No.” The doctor shook his head.
Wu Xirui pondered whether he should check the surveillance footage.
At this moment, the doctor suddenly remembered something, “Oh, right, she said she would visit tomorrow to
check on your condition because your illness is quite severe and needs scare, and there's sadvice she
needs to give.”
Hearing this, Wu Xirui temporarily put aside the idea of checking the surveillance and eagerly anticipated her
arrival.
Since she would be coming again, there was no need for him to be so anxious...
Meanwhile.
When Qiao Jing returned to her residence, it was already the break of dawn.
She went straight to her room and took a nap.
After waking up, she cout of her room, finished breakfast, and Zhan Nanjing suddenly crushing over,
nervously asking, “Xiao Jing, where did you go last night? Why didn’t you cback all night?”
“| called you, but your phone was off. | was thinking if you didn’t cback soon, | would have to report to the
police to find you!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHearing Zhan Nanjing say this, Qiao Jing slightly raised an eyebrow, took out her phone to check, and discovered
it was out of battery.
She concisely replied, “I went out for a walk last night, happened to save someone, and took him to the hospital,
so it took stime.”
Upon hearing this, Zhan Nanjing was relieved to know nothing went wrong.
Suddenly, she thought of something and raised an eyebrow at Qiao Jing, “By the way, George clooking for
you last night.”
Qiao Jing casually asked, “What did he want?”
Zhan Nanjing shrugged, “Wanted to discuss things with you.”
“As one of the agricultural big shots in M Country, he especially cto discuss academic issues with me. He
really has no airs at all.” Qiao Jing commented.
Zhan Nanjing giggled and teased, “Academic discussion? | guess that’s just an excuse. | think he’s interested in
you and wants to pursue you!”
Qiao Jing glanced at her, somewhat speechless, “Your imagination is quite rich, isn’t it?”
“Oh, don't be so sure. Lettell you, during yesterday's exchange meeting, that Professor George kept staring
at you, lost in thought several times. Who knows what he was thinking?”
After saying that, Zhan Nanjing added, “Maybe he was fantasizing!”
Qiao Jing knew Zhan Nanjing was deliberately teasing her, and immediately teased back, “I think it’s not him
fantasizing but you fantasizing, you're probably thinking about your man!”
With these words, Zhan Nanjing’s cheeks lightly blushed, feeling a bit shy.
Seeing this reaction, Qiao Jing couldn't help but smile, “Speaking of which, your wedding day seems to be
coming up soon, right?”
Zhan Nanjing nodded, “Yes, at the end of this year.”
Qiao Jing raised her eyebrows, “Then | should prepare a gift for you in advance.”
As they were chatting, George cover.
Seeing this, Zhan Nanjing immediately gave Qiao Jing a meaningful look.
After the look, she slapped her forehead in an exaggerated manner and exclaimed, “Oh, | just remembered, |
have sthings to do. You guys chat, you chat, I'll go first.”
Saying that, Zhan Nanjing turned and ran off, leaving the two alone.
Watching Zhan Nanjing leave like this, George guessed she might have misunderstood.
Actually, he didn’t mean that; it was just that this girl reminded him of his mentor, and she also had great insight
in agriculture, so he wanted to discuss more with her.
Qiao Jing didn’t think much of it and directly started a scholarly exchange with George.
The two found the conversation quite engaging and chatted until noon.
Seeing it was mealtime, George quickly got up to say goodbye, “Once | start talking, | forget the time. You must
be ready for lunch; I'll head back now.”
“You've call this way, why not stay for lunch before you go?”
Qiao Jing admired George, so she extended an invitation.
Truly, he indeed has great talent in agriculture; no wonder Professor Qiao took him as a student!
George hesitated, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
At this moment, Zhan Nanjing, who

George, “It's just a meal, what's so
embarrassing? Xiao Jing invited you;
you can't be so ungracious, can you?”
She had been hiding nearby, wanting to subtly gossip, see if there's any spark between them.
Unexpectedly, they really have been seriously discussing agricultural issues from start to finish. Those technical
terms had her nearly hypnotized!!
As Zhan Nanjing spoke to this point, George couldn't refuse anymore, or he would be considered impolite.
In the end, he stayed for lunch.
Qiao Jing personally cooked a rather sumptuous meal.
Once all the dishes were served, the three sat down.
At the first bite, George couldn’t control his emotions.
He was always a rather sentimental person, and at that moment, his emotions overwhelmed him, and tears
streamed down his face.
Seeing him like this, Qiao Jing was only momentarily stunned before calmly asking, “What’s wrong?”
Because others had strong reactions after tasting her cooking before, she was somewhat numb to it now.
Zhan Nanjing was not as calm. Seeing George suddenly cry, she was taken aback, her face full of surprise.
