Capitulo 994: Chapter 982: Being Followed
Upon hearing Qiao Jing mention that she had started working at the research institute, Zhou Fu on the other end
of the phone was stunned, displaying a look of surprise.
Unexpectedly, this girl not only has a talent for medicine but also possesses impressive aptitude in agriculture!
Qiao Jing recalled that Zhou Fu had helped her a lot before and sincerely wanted to take her as a disciple, but
she let him down in the end by not staying at the Wonderful Hall.
Thinking about this, she couldn't help but feel a bit guilty and solemnly apologized again, “Master Zhou, I'm
really sorry, because | prefer agriculture to medicine, | let you down.”
Hearing this, Zhou Fu finally returned to his senses from his surprise.
He wasn’t the least bit unhappy and kindly said, “It’s okay, you don’t need to apologize, actually, you really
resemble my master, who also regarded medicine as a hobby.”
“Since you prefer agriculture, | won't insist. You're welcat Wonderful Hall anytyou're free.”
Zhou Fu’s words made Qiao Jing breathe a sigh of relief.
She replied with a faint smile, “Alright.”
After hanging up the phone, Qiao Jing returned to her research work.
In the blink of an eye, it was evening, and others gradually left as they finished work.
Zhan Nanjing was also preparing to leave; while packing her things, she asked Qiao Jing beside her, “Xiao Jing,
I'm heading back, do you want to cwith me?”
After asking, she received no response, making Zhan Nanjing raise her head questioningly, only to find Qiao Jing
completely engrossed in her work, as if not hearing her at all.
Seeing her so focused, Zhan Nanjing couldn't help but admire her.
Such an outstanding person working so diligently, if she doesn’t succeed, who will!
After sighing over this, Zhan Nanjing decided not to disturb her, so she quietly left first.
Qiao Jing was so absorbed in her work that she automatically ignored all movements around her.
By the tshe finished and looked up, she noticed it was well past closing tand everyone else had already
left.
After packing her things, she stretched her neck and arms, loosened up her muscles, and also turned to leave.
Upon leaving the research institute, she intended to hail a ride back, only to find that after waiting for a long
time, no taxi passed by.
Unable to get a ride, Qiao Jing thought that since it wasn’t very far, she might as well walk back and get some

However, halfway through, Qiao Jing keenly sensed that someone had been tailing her.
Not just one person, but several!
Although she didn’t know who they were, their sneaky behavior surely meant no good!
As she was thinking, someone suddenly called out to her.
“Xiao Jing!”
Upon hearing the voice, Qiao Jing turned around and saw that it was Lin Xiuxiang calling her.
Lin Xiuxiang’s belly was already showing; she walked over with her belly out, carrying a bag in her hands,
seemingly just having bought something.
After greeting her, Qiao Jing curiously asked, “Why are you out here alone so late? Didn't Assistant Tang
accompany you?”
Lin Xiuxiang replied with a smile, “Tang Yan is still at the company working overtwith President Zhan; he said
there's a very important meeting tonight. Momo fell asleep early, and | was bored at home, so | cout for a
walk and to do sshopping.”
After speaking, Lin Xiuxiang asked back, “What about you? Why are you out so late?”
Qiao Jing answered honestly, “I just got off work and was about to go home.”
Lin Xiuxiang, hearing this, curiously inquired further, “You just got off work now? Where do you work?”
Qiao Jing felt an instant rapport with Lin Xiuxiang, and after several previous interactions, she had already
regarded Lin Xiuxiang as a good friend, so she was open with her.
She replied with a faint smile, “I work at Professor Qiao’s Research Institute; | stayed a bit late working today.”
Upon learning that she worked at the research institute, Lin Xiuxiang was a bit surprised but mostly filled with
admiration.
Thinking it over, Lin Xiuxiang suggested, “How about we grab a late-night snack together? I'm feeling a bit bored
anyway.”
Qiao Jing slightly furrowed her eyebrows, seemingly troubled.
Seeing her hesitate, Lin Xiuxiang pursed her lips and asked, “What's wrong? Is it inconvenient?”
Qiao Jing could tell that her silence had somewhat disappointed Lin Xiuxiang.
Afraid Lin Xiuxiang might have misunderstood, she explained, “It’s not what you think, it's because...”
Seeing her hesitate, Lin Xiuxiang was puzzled and looked at her in confusion.
Qiao Jing hesitated a bit but lowered her voice and spoke the truth, “Actually, | just realized I've been followed.
Being withmight put you in danger.”
Lin Xiuxiang, upon hearing this, immediately widened her eyes, nearly gasping in shock.
Being followed?!
This is awful!!!
“That's too scary! No, I'll call Tang Yan right away.”
Saying this, Lin Xiuxiang was about to pull out her phone.
Seeing this, Qiao Jing quickly
grabbed her hand, shook her head,

“But your safety—" Lin Xiuxiang started to say, but Qiao Jing cut her off.
“It’s fine, | can handle it myself. You should hurry home.”
“How can | do that?” Lin Xiuxiang disagreed, saying, “I can’t leave you alone!”
Knowing there’s danger and running away would be too unloyal!
Qiao Jing glanced at Lin Xiuxiang's
swollen belly and advised, You're

about the twins in your womb.” The

These words left Lin Xiuxiang momentarily stunned.
She asked, somewhat surprised, “How do you know I'm having twins?”
Qiao Jing replied calmly, “I can tell.”
This answer left Lin Xiuxiang even more astonished.
Back when she was pregnant with Momo, Qiao Jing had checked her pulse and said it was a girl, which later
proved true.
At that time, she thought Qiao Jing was incredible, being able to tell the gender just from checking a pulse.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Jing could tell as well!
She had heard Tang Yan mention that Xiao Jing was learning medicine from Master Zhou, but she didn’t expect
her medical skills to be so advanced!
For a moment, looking at Xiao Jing, Lin Xiuxiang felt like she was seeing the former Qiao Jing, even more
reluctant to leave her alone in danger.
After scanning around, Lin Xiuxiang decisively grabbed Qiao Jing’s hand and started walking quickly to the left,
“Cwith me.”
At this time, several men hiding in the shadows exchanged glances, unsure whether they should continue
following.
One of them said, “What do we do

“We're just doing a job for money. Let's make a call and see what the employer says; we’ll do what we're told.”
The leader said this as he took out his phone and dialed a number.
