Chapter 765 - 753: Help Her Bathe? Are You Kidding?
Chapter 765: Chapter 753: Help Her Bathe? Are You Kidding?
Having heard Zhan Qipei’s words, Qiao Jing unconsciously curled her lips, yet she hummed, "You might not mind, but I certainly do. My skin isn’t as thick as yours."
As she spoke, she lifted her arm to smell it and unconsciously furrowed her brows.
Since escaping the laboratory, and being forced to jump into the sea when their cruise ship hit a reef, until they swam ashore on this island, she had not had a chance to cleanse herself.
So, the scent on her body was indeed not very pleasant...
Seeing Qiao Jing’s actions, Zhan Qipei suddenly moved closer, lowered his head, and buried it in her neck.
Almost instinctively, Qiao Jing raised her hand and pushed Zhan Qipei away, looking at him suspiciously, "What are you doing?"
If it had been someone else, she might have kicked them directly!
Zhan Qipei chuckled softly, his magnetic voice resonating, "Didn’t you say you smelled? I just want to smell to see if it’s true."
Qiao Jing gave him a cold look, at a loss for words.
At that moment, Zhan Qipei added with a smile, "There’s no bad smell, I think it’s quite fragrant."
Hearing this, Qiao Jing was totally speechless.
She raised her hand again and pushed Zhan Qipei, who was hugging her waist, "Move aside, I need to continue bathing, don’t disturb me."
Instead of letting her go, Zhan Qipei held her even tighter and whispered in her ear, "Let me help you."
"No!" Qiao Jing immediately refused, very decisively, "I don’t need your help!"
Help her bathe?
What a joke!
He might have the audacity, but she certainly did not!!
"It’s my negligence that you had to suffer so much these days, so please, give me a chance to make it up to you."
Zhan Qipei spoke as if he wore a halo of righteousness.
Unfortunately, Qiao Jing was not moved and firmly refused.
She placed her hands on Zhan Qipei’s chest and huffed, "I said I don’t need it, and I mean it. Don’t try those tricks with me."
"But I really want to help you bathe. You must be exhausted after all these days, let me serve you well."
As he spoke, Zhan Qipei’s tone grew more forceful, brooking no refusal.
Without waiting for Qiao Jing’s response or heeding her resistance, he took off the suit jacket that had been wrapped around her.
The only piece of clothing covering her was suddenly pulled away, and Qiao Jing felt a chill on her body.
She instinctively hugged herself and squatted down.
She had not yet come ashore, still standing by the edge of the Fountain.
As she squatted down, she leaned back and her body submerged into the clear Fountain water.
Through the Fountain, one could faintly see her graceful figure.
This kind of partially hidden allure was often the most seductive!
Zhan Qipei’s gaze was fixed intently on Qiao Jing’s body.
After a moment, he removed his clothes and stepped into the water as well.
As Zhan Qipei moved closer step by step, Qiao Jing unconsciously moved back, her brows slightly furrowed.
She looked at Zhan Qipei with a wary expression, "What are you doing down here? I told you, I don’t need help, I can wash by myself!"
The idea of someone helping her bathe was uncomfortable just to think about!
"Don’t rush to refuse. Try it, you might like it."
During the conversation, Zhan Qipei had already approached Qiao Jing, swiftly drawing her into his arms.
Qiao Jing glared at Zhan Qipei, struggling in his arms with her voice raised a few notches, "Who would like this? Let me go! Right now!"
If it weren’t for her pregnancy, she wouldn’t have hesitated to kick this man off her!
"Splash, splash—"
The two tangled in the water, the sound breaking the surrounding silence.
Because Qiao Jing was mindful of the three babies in her belly, she eventually let Zhan Qipei have his way and allowed him to help her bathe.
After the bath, Qiao Jing and Zhan Qipei, neatly dressed, emerged from the woods.
George, who had been waiting outside, walked over with a sheepish grin and greeted them, "Master, Grandmaster."
Truth be told, he still felt a bit terrified when facing the Grandmaster.
The look the Grandmaster had given him earlier was truly frightening, as if he wanted to kill him!
He felt that if the Grandmaster hadn’t been in a hurry to find his Master just now and wasn’t preoccupied, he might have been dead already...
Qiao Jing nodded slightly, acknowledging George’s greeting.
Then, she turned her head to look at Zhan Qipei, using her gaze to inquire about the next steps.
Zhan Qipei didn’t come to the island alone; he must have brought quite a few people, but there was no signal on the island.
After sending the location, to prevent the signal from being detected by John and his men, she had turned off her phone and the signal-emitting devices.
She wondered how Zhan Qipei and his men were communicating?
Upon receiving Qiao Jing’s gaze, Zhan Qipei immediately understood her meaning and spoke, "I’ve arranged with Tang Yan and the others to meet at the shore at dusk."
Speaking of which, Zhan Qipei suddenly felt quite lucky.
The island was not small, and there were many people he had brought along. So many had searched, but he was the first to find Qiao Jing!
Qiao Jing looked up at the sky, estimated the time, "Perfect, it’s almost dusk now, let’s go."
"Okay."
Zhan Qipei responded, taking Qiao Jing’s hand and leading her towards where the speedboat and cruise ship were parked.
Seeing this, George quickly followed, silently trailing behind the duo.
During the walk, Zhan Qipei inquired about Qiao Jing’s recent experiences.
Qiao Jing pursed her lips and said softly, "The person who brought me to M country was M country’s leader, John. Their goal was to have me help with research on a new type of wheat that could adapt to M country’s climate."
"Doing the research wouldn’t have been difficult, but their attitude made me not want to help them, and you can probably guess what happened afterward."
If from the beginning, John and Frank had treated her with respect and politely asked for her help, perhaps she would have lent a hand out of professional spirit.
Unfortunately, they chose to use methods that she found repulsive.
She could hardly be blamed for having a hardened heart!
Hearing Qiao Jing’s words, a hint of coldness flashed through Zhan Qipei’s eyes.
Once they left this place, he was definitely going to settle this account with those people! noveldrama
About twenty minutes later, Qiao Jing, Zhan Qipei, and George successfully arrived where the cruise ship was docked.
When they got there, Tang Yan and Claire had not yet returned.
The trio waited for a while, when suddenly they noticed numerous boats speeding across the sea, clearly heading towards the small island they were on.
Qiao Jing furrowed her brows, sensing that something was amiss.
These boats had a clear target, evidently aimed at this island.
And since this island was where she and George had been hiding, the people making such a grand arrival here, aside from Zhan Qipei who received her location, could only be John and his men!
