Pregnant After Healing the Alpha

Chapter 731: Chapter 720: Forcibly Abducting Qiao Jing

Zhan Nanqing was so anxious that she broke into a sweat and turned back, wanting to look for Qiao Jing.

But when she returned to where she started, she didn’t see a single person.

Zhan Nanqing’s heart grew more and more panicked, she took out her cellphone and called Su Manhan. While making the call, she walked in the direction Qiao Jing had left.

"Mom, Qiao Jing... Qiao Jing is being followed... What about my brother? He’s not answering my calls..."

What if something happened to Qiao Jing?!

Su Manhan was originally sitting at home eating an apple, but when she heard Zhan Nanqing’s words, she was startled, and her apple fell to the ground.

"What happened? Who’s following Qiao Jing? Where are you now? Where’s Qiao Jing?"

Zhan Nanqing was so anxious that she started crying. She hurried into the alley which Qiao Jing might have entered, but saw no one.

"I don’t know... I... Qiao Jing told me to split up... I’m near the research institute now..."

Su Manhan immediately understood the intention behind why Qiao Jing wanted to split up and anxiously headed to the second floor.

"Why are you so foolish? Qiao Jing is so smart, how could she not know what’s going on? She didn’t want to drag you down, that’s why she made you all split up! Your brother is currently in an emergency meeting at the company and can’t be reached! Quickly tell me more about the situation, I’ll speak to your grandfather!"

Meanwhile, Qiao Jing had arrived at an alley near the research institute.

She could feel that those people were all following her, and there were more than just one or two of them.

Qiao Jing slowly furrowed her brows, stopped walking, turned around, and said coldly:

"Come out."

Fortunately, these people were not targeting Zhan Nanqing; she had managed to divert them early on. Otherwise, both of them would be in jeopardy now.

The suit-clad men, who had been hidden in the shadows, heard her voice, some entering from the alley’s entrance, others jumping down from the walls beside the alley.

The next second, more than a dozen blond, blue-eyed men in black suits appeared in Qiao Jing’s line of sight.

Qiao Jing looked up at these blond and blue-eyed men, her eyes slightly narrowing.

She didn’t engage with these men easily, especially since she was pregnant, which indeed made it inconvenient to fight, besides, these dozen men were clearly well-trained.

She wouldn’t fight these people unless absolutely necessary.

Just then, Qiao Jing’s phone pinged. As the suit-clad men hadn’t yet approached her, she began backing away while opening her phone to check the message.

She glanced at it; the message was from Xu Moqian, asking where she was and if she wanted to go out.

Qiao Jing pursed her lips tightly and, while continuing to back away, freed one hand to type a reply to Xu Moqian’s message.

"I am being followed."

Just as she sent the message, the suit-clad men perceived her intent to escape and quickened their pace, chasing after her.

Qiao Jing, knowing the layout of these alleys well, began weaving through them as her slim figure darted about, with the men in suits relentlessly following her.

Still, they were not as fast as Qiao Jing; after all, her research institute was in this area, and she very well knew the environment, almost managing to lose them a few times.

The leader of the men in suits, watching Qiao Jing’s agile movements, furrowed his brow and commanded the men behind him:

"Hurry up and keep up!" noveldrama

At this moment, Qiao Jing was distracted, checking Xu Moqian’s message.

Upon seeing her message about being followed, Xu Moqian promptly sent a flurry of question marks.

"????"

"Sister Jing! Where are you? What’s happening? Who’s following you? Send me your location!"

"Sister Jing! You gotta reply to my messages!"

Qiao Jing’s brows furrowed tightly.

"I don’t know you."

No sooner had she sent this message than her steps were forcibly halted.

For she had reached the end of an alley.

Qiao Jing looked up and gauged the height of the walls. After assessing that jumping up forcefully carried certain risks, she stopped.

Then, she turned around and faced the dozen or so people, saying in fluent English,

"State your intentions."

The man in the lead, dressed in a suit, bowed respectfully to Qiao Jing and then switched to Chinese to communicate.

"Professor Qiao, we’ve come to ask you to go to M country. Our superiors have something they need you for, and they need your help."

Upon hearing the suited man’s words, Qiao Jing slightly raised her finely arching eyebrows. Her indifferent face bore no extra expression, making it impossible to discern her emotions.

She hadn’t had much interaction with M country, except for when Wonderful Hall had expanded there; she’d only occasionally been involved.

Apart from Wonderful Hall, only Wu Xirui had connections with people from M country. But the people tailing her couldn’t possibly be sent by Wu Xirui.

After all, she was supposed to see Wu Xirui for a medical consultation later. He wouldn’t have the leisure to send someone to tail her and then bring her over for treatment.

"You’re asking me to go to M country?"

She did not believe the suited man’s words. Though he spoke nicely, asking for her help, his bringing so many people indicated clearly that if she did not comply, they would forcibly take her.

The suited man nodded and spoke kindly,

"Professor Qiao, our country really needs your help for some matters. We ask that you cooperate with us."

Qiao Jing looked at the man’s hypocritical demeanor, a chill gradually spreading through her eyes.

She hardly hesitated, directly refusing the suited man’s "request."

"Sorry, I refuse."

Even though she knew that pretending to be compliant would keep these men from laying hands on her and ensure her safety,

it was not in her nature to easily bow down, especially not to these strangers who had mysterious intentions and were prepared to forcefully take her away.

Moreover, her abilities were more than sufficient to take down these dozen men. Even if they were well-trained, she was no pushover.

She wanted to gamble with these men.

The lead suited man saw Qiao Jing’s decisive refusal and dropped any pretense of respect, his demeanor turning cold.

"Professor Qiao, let me reiterate, I hope you will cooperate with us. I know that you are a smart person and will know how to choose."

Their superiors had ordered that they must not harm a hair on Professor Qiao’s head, but if Professor Qiao refused to cooperate, they were permitted to use some forceful measures.

Qiao Jing curled her lips, her smile neither warm nor genuine as she eyed the line of men.

"I’ve already said, I won’t leave with you."

If it had been the person from M country coming over personally, reaching out through legitimate means and asking for her help, she might have considered it.

But these men using underhanded methods to "ask" her to help was out of the question!

Seeing the situation, the lead suited man had no choice but to bow again.

"In that case, Professor Qiao, I apologize, but we are compelled to offend!"
