The two people next to him, not daring to offend Zhan Jingting, immediately did as he said and spat on the ground.
Qiao Wanwan felt disgusted just looking at it.
The man's face showed both disgust and fear of Zhan Jingting; his expression was incredibly interesting!
He looked at Zhan Jingting with trepidation, then suddenly knelt down with a thud!
"Master Zhan, I know I was wrong, please forgive me! I beg you!"
"Don't test my patience." Zhan Jingting looked at him as if he were an ant. "If you're a minute late, I'll let you have one more bite."
The man trembled violently in fright, not daring to waste any more time. He immediately crawled over and lowered his head to lick it.
Qiao Wanwan felt nauseous and immediately turned her head away.
The next second, Zhan Jingting grabbed her wrist and led her out.
Behind me came the sound of the man vomiting, and the dry heaving of the bystanders.
Qiao Wanwan quickened her pace and followed Zhan Jingting away.
The two arrived at the parking lot outside the hotel, where Jiang Dong greeted them, "Master Zhan, Madam."
Zhan Jingting took Qiao Wanwan's hand and got into the car. The driver tactfully got out of the car, giving the two of them some alone time.
"Jingting, what brings you here?" Qiao Wanwan looked at his black hair, reached out to touch it, and took off a wig, revealing a head of white hair.
Although she had guessed it, Qiao Wanwan was still very sad.
She wished that all the disasters were just a nightmare!
She wished she could wake up and find that nothing had ever happened!
Qiao Wanwan dared not show her sadness, lest she worry Zhan Jingting.
She tried her best to hide her emotions and smiled, "What brings you here?"
"I was worried about you, so I came to check on you."
"I can handle it myself," Qiao Wanwan said. "Although Xiao Jiu is in their hands, I can't let them do whatever they want to me, otherwise they will only become more unscrupulous."
"So even if you hadn't come, I would have taken action and taught these people a lesson."
Zhan Jingting breathed a sigh of relief. "Wanwan, it's good that you understand. Although Xiao Jiu is in their hands, he's just a tool to threaten us, so these people don't dare to do anything to them for the time being. I need to save the child and protect you as well."
"I won't let anything happen to me, so you can rest assured." Qiao Wanwan leaned into the man's arms. "But Jingting, when you first appeared, I was still very happy. With you here, I'm not afraid of anything."
Zhan Jingting lowered his head and kissed her forehead. "Good girl."
Qiao Wanwan sniffed. "I had Jiang Dong contact you before, saying he wanted to see you. Why didn't you respond?"
"I'm a bit busy, and meeting too often isn't a good thing," Zhan Jingting explained. "They're also testing our limits. Aside from necessary occasions like tonight, it's not advisable for me to show up too often."
"Yes, I understand." Qiao Wanwan took a deep breath and looked up at him. "The bigger picture is more important. You should go first, but you need to arrange a time as soon as possible so that my master and I can see you together."
Zhan Jingting asked in confusion, "Does the old man want to see me?"
"Yes, your body must have changed after taking the medicine for a long time. I'd like to ask my master to help me diagnose the problem so that I can prescribe the right medicine for you."
"Okay, I'll do it as soon as possible."
"Don't forget that."
"good."
"Then you should leave quickly. I need to go find Zaozao. She was still inside when we came out just now. I'm afraid those people will make things difficult for her."
"Don't worry, someone will escort her out."
As they were talking, Qiao Wanwan saw Cheng Zaozao come out of the hotel.
"I'm leaving." Zhan Jingting raised his hand and patted her head. "Take care of yourself."
"Um."
Qiao Wanwan got out of the car and walked towards Cheng Zaozao.
"Sis, why did brother-in-law leave?" Cheng Zaozao asked curiously.
“Yes, he has things to do and won’t be home for the time being.” Qiao Wanwan took her hand. “Zaozao, you shouldn’t have done that just now.”
“Sister, you are the face of the Imperial View Group, and you cannot be humiliated.” Cheng Zaozao smiled. “But I am different. In the eyes of these tycoons, I am just an actress, and I will not be laughed at no matter what I do.”
Qiao Wanwan felt a pang of heartache. "Zaozao, should I not have let you enter the entertainment industry?"
“No, I really enjoy acting,” Cheng Zaozao said. “It’s just that we are from different social classes, so it’s normal for these people to look down on us. As Madam Zhan, you should understand this best, sister.”
"Don't worry about what just happened. I'm your sister, and it's only right that I do anything for you. Sister, you raised me, and now I'm happy to be able to do something for you. Really, I don't feel anything at all."
Qiao Wanwan's eyes welled up with tears. "Zaozao, thank you. But remember, if your sister dares to come to an event like this, she must have made thorough preparations and won't suffer any losses. So if there's a next time, you don't need to stand up for your sister; protecting yourself is the most important thing."
Cheng Zaozao was a little worried, "Sis, am I going to cause you trouble again?"
“How could that be?” Qiao Wanwan hugged her. “Zaozao, I’m so happy that you stepped forward, really.”
"Sister, compared to what you've done for me, I feel like I've done far too little for you."
“Madam,” Jiang Dong stepped forward, “your phone call.”
Qiao Wanwan then let go of Cheng Zaozao, picked up her phone to answer the call, "What happened... What? How could this happen... Call the doctor first, I'll be right back!"
"Sister, what's wrong?" Cheng Zaozao asked anxiously.
"I got a fever during the National Day holiday." Qiao Wanwan put away her phone. "I have to go home right away."
