Pregnant After Healing the Alpha

Chapter 789: Chapter 777 Trying on the Wedding Dress

Watching Wu Xirui leave with long strides, Zhan Yuanshan couldn’t help but sigh.

It seemed that getting his grandson to let go of his grudges and to forgive his mother was not an easy task!

Qiao Jing shifted her gaze from the direction Wu Xirui had left and turned to look at Zhan Yuanshan beside her, asking with a hint of curiosity, "Grandpa Zhan, do you ever regret the decision you made back then?"

If the decision had been different back then, perhaps the outcome would be different as well...

Hearing Qiao Jing’s question, Zhan Yuanshan was pulled back from his thoughts. He chuckled and said, "Regret? I’ve never regretted anything I do in my life."

"Besides, on this matter, I truly believe that I did nothing wrong, or rather, I am convinced that the decision I made was the correct one—Qipei was indeed the most suitable candidate to take over Zhan Corporation!"

"Just look at Zhan Corporation’s glory and prosperity; without Qipei, it could have never developed into what it is now."

"As for my daughter..."

As he spoke, Zhan Yuanshan paused and sighed again, "To tell the truth, her temperament is unlike mine or her mother’s, but rather, it reminds me a bit of her second uncle."

"Both are similarly proud and hasty for success, incredibly stubborn and particularly opinionated, always thinking they can do anything better than anyone else."

Qiao Jing raised an eyebrow and quietly listened to Zhan Yuanshan’s words.

Zhan Yingying’s second uncle, that is, Zhan Yuanshan’s brother—Zhan Kaiyang.

Zhan Kaiyang was someone whose personality and temperament really weren’t all that great.

"Well, enough about that."

Zhan Yuanshan waved his hand dismissively, then pointed toward the restaurant and said to Qiao Jing, "Let’s go have our meal first."

"Alright."

Qiao Jing nodded and followed Zhan Yuanshan into the restaurant.

...

After the decision to hold the wedding again was finalized, the Zhan Family began to prepare for it energetically.

As the bride, Qiao Jing’s primary task was naturally to try on wedding dresses.

The bridal shop was carefully selected by Su Manhan. It was such an important event that she originally intended to accompany Qiao Jing herself.

However, on the very day Qiao Jing was scheduled to try on the dresses, Su Manhan suddenly felt unwell and could only rest at home, unable to go out.

When Zhan Nanqing heard about this, she immediately ran to Qiao Jing and volunteered herself.

"Qiao Jing, let me accompany you. I want to be the first to see you in your wedding dress!"

She thought, with Qiao Jing’s stunning beauty and graceful figure, she would look heavenly in a wedding dress!

The mere thought of that beautiful scene made her incredibly excited!

Actually, she had seen Qiao Jing in a wedding dress before—it was when Qiao Jing married her brother for the first time. But circumstances were different back then; she was very much against Qiao Jing and hadn’t paid attention to how she looked in her wedding dress.

Watching the excitement in Zhan Nanqing’s eyes, Qiao Jing slowly let out, "If I remember correctly, you haven’t finished your work at the research institute yet, have you?"

At those words, Zhan Nanqing’s expression instantly fell.

She looked at Qiao Jing with pleading eyes and negotiated, "Can I accompany you to try on the dress and then finish the rest of the work?"

"That won’t be possible." Qiao Jing extended her index finger and wagged it from side to side, "The data has to be completed today."

"But, trying on a wedding dress is such an important event, I can’t let you go alone..."

Zhan Nanqing was hoping to haggle a little more, but before she got halfway through her sentence, Qiao Jing cut her off.

"Don’t worry about that, I’ll have Xiangxiang go with me, you just focus on your work."

After saying this, Qiao Jing took out her phone and, in front of Zhan Nanqing, called Lin Xiuxiang.

Zhan Nanqing pouted, a look of disappointment on her face.

Not being the first one to see Qiao Jing in her wedding dress really broke her heart!!!

Twenty minutes later, a car pulled up in front of the bridal shop.

Qiao Jing and Lin Xiuxiang got out of the car one after the other.

Before even entering the bridal shop, just standing at the door, one could already feel a very romantic aura.

Looking inside through the full-length windows on both sides, the layout of the entire bridal shop could be seen.

"This bridal shop looks amazing. Let’s hurry in," Lin Xiuxiang said, and without waiting, she took Qiao Jing’s arm and walked eagerly toward the shop.

Qiao Jing nodded in agreement with Lin Xiuxiang’s remark. noveldrama

The shop did look nice, and it was clear that Su Manhan had really put thought into selecting this place.

As soon as they entered the bridal shop, Lin Xiuxiang couldn’t help but exclaim, "Wow! These wedding dresses are so beautiful! Qiao Jing, you will look amazing in them!"

Qiao Jing pulled lightly at the corner of her lips, glancing around the shop.

She had to admit, the variety of styles in the shop was truly vast, dazzling line-up, and all the designs were enchanting.

There were strapless, long-tailed dresses, A-line fluffy ones like princess gowns, knee-length dresses with open backs, sexy V-neck fitted ones, and enchanting strapless mermaid styles...

With such a dizzying array, it made one’s eyes blur!

The shop’s sales associate approached Qiao Jing and Lin Xiuxiang with a beaming smile, "Ladies, please follow me this way, and I’ll introduce you to the styles we have in the shop."

Qiao Jing nodded and, along with Lin Xiuxiang, followed the sales associate to start selecting wedding dresses.

At that moment, two women passed by the bridal shop.

One of them wore a hat on her head and large sunglasses that covered most of her face.

This person, who was completely covering her face, was Qiao Mengtong, and the person beside her was her best friend Zhou Qi.

Zhou Qi turned her head and inadvertently spotted Qiao Jing inside the bridal shop.

She stopped in her tracks, blocked Qiao Mengtong, and pointed to the figure of Qiao Jing, saying, "Mengtong, look, isn’t that your half-sister? What is she doing in a bridal shop? Trying on wedding dresses?"

Qiao Mengtong followed Zhou Qi’s pointing finger and did indeed see Qiao Jing.

Seeing Qiao Jing seriously picking out wedding dresses in the store, Qiao Mengtong found it odd.

Zhan Nan and Zhan Bei had mentioned before that Qiao Jing now firmly held the position of the young mistress of the Zhan Family and that she and the President of Zhan Corporation had already had their wedding. So why was she trying on wedding dresses here?

Could it be... Qiao Jing had really been thrown out of the Zhan Family?

Otherwise, why would she be trying on wedding dresses?

Looking at her like that, she might be getting married to someone else!

Upon this thought, Qiao Mengtong suddenly felt as if she had grasped the truth.

Qiao Mengtong and the Qiao Family were unaware of the re-wedding event organized by the Zhan Corporation. Qiao Mengtong had been busy with her film shootings, while the Qiao Family had been running their businesses, hoping to revive their fortunes and restore the Qiao Family to its former glory.

Hmph, so like Qiao Jing, getting ready to marry someone else and not even giving them a heads up!

Thinking this, Qiao Mengtong left Zhou Qi and stormed into the bridal shop, heading straight for Qiao Jing.

When Qiao Jing looked up, she gave Qiao Mengtong a cold glance, her eyes and brows filled with detachment and indifference.

Qiao Mengtong stared at the wedding dress in Qiao Jing’s hands and demanded, "Why are you here trying on wedding dresses? Who are you marrying?"

Seeing Qiao Mengtong’s arrogant attitude towards Qiao Jing, Lin Xiuxiang instantly became angry.

She glared at Qiao Mengtong and snapped, "What does it matter to you if Qiao Jing tries on wedding dresses or who she marries? Is it any of your business?"

Qiao Mengtong retorted with righteous indignation, "How is it not my business? Don’t forget, she too has the last name Qiao. We of the Qiao Family have every right to inquire about her matters!"
