Pregnant After Healing the Alpha-Chapter 665 - 654 Uncovering the Truth

"I never took your previous tricks seriously, as long as you don’t do anything to harm me in the future, that’s fine."

From the beginning to the end, she didn’t take any of Lou Xinrou’s various provocations to heart, including the ridicules. The only thing that could truly anger her was physical assault.

Because now she was no longer alone, with three babies in her womb, she needed to be even more careful and protective.

But regardless of whether she was pregnant or not, anyone who dared to lay a hand on her would not be easily forgiven.

Lou Xinrou quickly shook her head, almost like a rattle-drum, her hands continuously waving.

"No, no, don’t worry! How could I ever lay hands on you again? It was indeed my fault in the past, but my grandfather and the others have already given me a severe education. I’ve realized now, it was out of jealousy due to love that I became like this, but I’m not really that kind of person. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Nanqing!"

Zhan Nanqing opened her mouth, her eyebrows furrowed tightly.

Seeing Zhan Nanqing’s reaction, Lou Xinrou’s gaze flickered before she continued.

"I usually donate to help stray animals, and I never scheme against others, let alone do anything to hurt anyone. It was all because of my overwhelming jealousy that led me to this point. But after coming to my senses, I’ve let it go. Qipei only sees me as a sister, and I’ll just regard him as a brother."

Hearing Lou Xinrou’s words, Zhan Nanqing pursed her lips and scrutinized the other person from head to toe.

With a frown, she finally sighed and slowly said,

"Xinrou was indeed not like this before, or else I wouldn’t have become such good friends with her. She used to be a very kind girl, but then she probably did those foolish things because she loved my brother too much."

Su Manhan also sighed, helplessly glanced at Lou Xinrou, and then turned to look at Qiao Jing.

"Ah, this child is also someone whom I’ve watched grow up. The Zhan Family and the Lou Family are longstanding friends, and nobody wants those past incidents to happen, but I will respect your opinion."

Even if Lou Xinrou is apologizing so sincerely and making so many promises now, it’s useless. As long as Qiao Jing says she doesn’t want to forgive, she won’t forgive her.

After all, she can’t let her daughter-in-law suffer for somebody else, and she won’t let Qiao Jing be aggrieved for the sake of Lou Xinrou.

Qiao Jing looked at Lou Xinrou expressionlessly, her cold voice resounding.

"Let’s turn the page."

Upon hearing this, Lou Xinrou’s eyes suddenly lit up, and the corners of her mouth rose, her face full of joy.

"That’s great! Qiao Jing, thank you! Thank you for forgiving me despite everything. I came today not only to apologize but I also specifically sought out a chef from a five-star hotel, asking him to teach me, all so that I could personally cook a meal to make amends."

As she said this, a barely perceptible shrewd glint flashed across the depths of her eyes.

She wasn’t truly seeking reconciliation with Qiao Jing and the others by visiting and apologizing profusely.

What right did someone like Qiao Jing have to deserve her genuine apology?

Before, she had gone through many twists and turns in the black market to find an odorless and tasteless abortion drug, which was also very effective.

Even if Qiao Jing was a doctor, it was not easy to detect such a colorless and odorless drug, and the seller guaranteed her that even Divine Doctor Jing wouldn’t be able to discover it.

That’s why she came to the Zhan Family household so boldly, having spent the past few days ingratiating herself with Su Manhan and then playing out the apology drama, all to cook this meal and poison it, ensuring that Qiao Jing would have a complete miscarriage!

That cheap woman Qiao Jing didn’t deserve to carry Brother Pei’s children! Only she could!

Qiao Jing’s gaze didn’t linger on Lou Xinrou’s face, failing to catch the other party’s emotions.

Seeing that things seemed to be turning the page, Su Manhan and Zhan Nanqing exchanged glances and finally smiled.

Zhan Nanqing actually still had some reservations about Lou Xinrou, but since Qiao Jing had said the matter was behind them, she was also going to try and accept the other party.

She slowly approached Lou Xinrou, struggling to recall the way they had interacted before, and began to speak with some difficulty.

"Xinrou, are you really going to cook for us?"

Lou Xinrou nodded, her face beaming with a big smile as she reached out without hesitation and hugged Zhan Nanqing as if nothing had ever happened between them.

"Yeah, Nanqing, it’s been a while since I’ve seen you and had a good chat with you, and today we finally have the chance. Auntie Su, Nanqing, Qiao Jing, I’ll go start the cooking now; just wait for me a bit, it’ll be ready soon! I even brought ingredients today, specifically picking out the ones you all like."

She was sure she would succeed this time!

Seeing Lou Xinrou heading to the kitchen to cook, Zhan Nanqing followed.

"Xinrou, how about I help you?"

Lou Xinrou’s steps hesitated for a moment, and her smile stiffened for an instant, but the moment she turned her head back, it was replaced by the smile she had before.

"Thank you, Nanqing, but no need, I can handle it all by myself. After all, I learned from a master, so don’t worry! I will have it ready very soon."

Zhan Nanqing then gave up on the idea of helping and withdrew her steps.

Seeing this, Su Manhan asked:

"Xinrou, why don’t you let my family’s chef give you a hand as well?"

Her concern was that Lou Xinrou might not manage on her own, and with so many ingredients in the kitchen, cooking by herself would take a lot of time.

Lou Xinrou smiled at Su Manhan and spoke in a half-joking tone.

"Auntie Su, don’t you believe I can cook well all by myself?"

If she let someone else help, her plan would certainly be exposed.

She absolutely couldn’t let anyone help!

Seeing Lou Xinrou so adamant, Su Manhan had no choice but to let her busy herself in the kitchen, while she and Qiao Jing sat on the sofa in the living room.

With Qiao Jing and the others all seated on the sofa chatting, Lou Xinrou finally breathed a sigh of relief, turned her head, and looked at the various vegetables placed in the kitchen.

Her lips slowly curled into a hideous smile, her hand clutching a packet of powder tightly.

She finally had the opportunity!!

A moment later, Lou Xinrou brought all the cooked dishes to the dining table and called Qiao Jing and the others to eat.

"Qiao Jing, Auntie Su, Nanqing, it’s time to eat!"

Everyone took their seats, and Su Manhan, looking at the dishes which seemed quite appetizing, felt a bit of anticipation and immediately took a bite of the food with her chopsticks.

"Wow, Xinrou, although we haven’t seen each other for quite some time, I didn’t expect you to have improved your cooking so much. It’s got the looks, the fragrance, and the taste!"

Qiao Jing, looking at the spread before her, felt an ominous premonition rise within her.

She slowly furrowed her brows, picking up some vegetables and putting them in her bowl.
