Chapter 622: Chapter 611: Who Exactly Should We Ask for Help?
Qiao Jing glanced at the caller ID and found it was Su Manhan’s call.
A trace of confusion appeared in her eyes. Su Manhan had just had a quarrel with Zhan Nanging, what could she
want by calling her now?
Could it be about Zhan Nanging bringing her boyfriend over?
Qiao Jing quickly tapped to answer the call.
"Madam Zhan, what's up?"
Zhan Nanging, who had been chattering non-stop around Chi Yuhang, fell silent instantly when she heard how
Qiao Jing addressed the caller.
She let go of Chi Yuhang’s hand, lightened her footsteps, and cbeside Qiao Jing, leaning in close to listen to
Su Manhan’s words.
Qiao Jing saw Zhan Nanging sticking so close to her, desperately trying to listen to the call, and couldn't help but
pull a wry smile.
She had no choice but to turn on the speakerphone, that made Zhan Nanqing step back a little.
Su Manhan'’s excited voice rose, her joy perceptible even through the phone.
"Qiao Jing, Nanging is bringing her boyfriend htomorrow. You should also cback to Purple Garden
tomorrow, and we can check him out together. This child really, | introduced her to so many people, how could
she not be interested in any of them? Turns out she had a boyfriend all along, and she kept it from me."
Hearing Su Manhan’s words, Zhan Nanging’s eyes widened, and she couldn't help but interject:
"When did | say | would bring him htomorrow? | just agreed to it, without setting a specific time!"
She hadn't yet reached an agreement with Chi Yuhang; how could she bring him hso soon?
And she didn’t even know if Chi Yuhang was willing to help her. If he wouldn't help her, she had no idea who to
bring home.
Su Manhan, not expecting Zhan Nanging to be right there, paused briefly, then continued:
"| already told you, and you agreed, isn’t it just meeting tomorrow? Or is he scompany CEO, busier than
your brother? Your brother has tto chome, but he doesn’t have the tto cover?"
Zhan Nanging rolled her eyes in exasperation and muttered under her breath.
"It’s not even about being busy; how can I find him when he doesn’t even exist?"
Su Manhan didn’t catch what Zhan Nanqing said, and asked quizzically:

"What did you say?"
Zhan Nanging realized she had almost let the truth slip and quickly covered her mouth, looking at Qiao Jing with
pleading eyes.
Qiao Jing shook her head somewhat helplessly but couldn't just leave Zhan Nanging hanging and had to help her
out,
"She said that the timefris too tight, and she’s afraid her boyfriend won't be prepared well enough."
After hearing this, Su Manhan responded with understanding:
"There's no need to prepare anything, just cover with Nanging. I’m not that picky, and also, tell Nanging’s
boyfriend not to bring over any ginseng or deer antler gifts; we have plenty of that at home."
Zhan Nanqing, frustrated, made a face at the phone and quietly complained to Qiao Jing.
"She says she’s not picky, but if she weren't, pigs would be climbing trees. She's passed on so many based on
that pile of profiles..."
Qiao Jing quickly covered the phone’s mouthpiece and glared at Zhan Nanqging with a warning look in her eyes.
"Don’t talk nonsense, or if Madam Zhan hears you, | won't be able to help you either."
Zhan Nanging hung her head and muttered a sullen "Oh," then closed her mouth.
Seeing the two of them silent, Su Manhan kept talking on her own.
"Nanging must be by your side now, right? She definitely can hearspeak. Tomorrow noon, bring someone to
the house for a meal; I'll help you screen him. If he says he doesn’t have time, I'll get angry. I'm not asking for
any gifts; just his presence is fine. If you can’t even meet this request, tell Nanqing to break up with him early
and continue meeting other men. There are plenty of outstanding men out there."
Qiao Jing glanced at Zhan Nanging, then at Chi Yuhang.
"Okay, I'll cover with Nanging after work tomorrow noon."
Right now, she was worried that Chi Yuhang wouldn't be willing to do this favor, and Su Manhan had given them
such short notice that it would be difficult to find another suitable candidate within a day.
Therefore, she still preferred to pin her hopes on Chi Yuhang, trying to persuade him.
Su Manhan seemed satisfied and hung up the call.
After hanging up, there were a few seconds of silence in Wonderful Hall, which Zhan Nanging soon broke.
"We're doomed... What do we do now? My mom wantsto bring someone back tomorrow; she’s really going
for my life. Where am | going to conjure up a living, breathing person on such short notice—"
After her complaint, she turned her gaze to Chi Yuhang.
"Chi Yuhang, you heard it just now, didn’t you? My mom wantsto bring someone tomorrow, and there's so
little time. | can’t find someone else at the drop of a hat. You're the only one who can helpnow. Could you do
Chi Yuhang had already decided to refuse Zhan Nanging, but he hesitated after hearing the phone call.
Logically, he should help her, as Zhan Nanging not only spoke up for him in front of a neighbor aunt but also
sprained her ankle because of him.
But his concern wasn’t that. If it was any ordinary girl, he would have agreed to help without hesitation.
However, Zhan Nanging was the

Seeing Chi Yuhang’s hesitation, Zhan Nanqing said discontentedly:
"What do you mean ‘I'? Why are you,
a grown man, so indecisive? Just say
yes or no. aI foyer m

After all, she just wanted her mother to know that she had a boyfriend so that she wouldn't be pressured to go
on blind dates anymore.
Seeing this, Qiao Jing chimed in to persuade:
"Chi Yuhang, you don’t need to prepare anything excessive, just going to meet her once will be enough."
Of course, she knew what Chi Yuhang was hesitant about. If it wasn’t a last resort, she wouldn't be so adamant in
convincing him.
Chi Yuhang pursed his lips and looked down at himself.
"Are you sure I'm okay like this? I'm not good with words, and | don’t have formal clothes. Maybe you should find
someone else?"
His attire was hardly fitting to visit the Zhan Family.
When Zhan Nanging heard Chi Yuhang’s words, she sensed hope and her tone softened.
"Of course, you're fine as you are, you
don't have a crooked nose or eyes.

Chi Yuhang'’s eyes darkened, and he lowered his head.
"You're right, you should find somebody else."
A person like him indeed had no right to pretend to be of such a high status.
When Zhan Nanging saw Chi Yuhang turning to leave, she hurried forward a few steps, intending to grab his
sleeve but accidentally caught his arm instead.
Not caring about those details, she spoke up unhappily:
"I haven't finished speaking yet, where are you going?"
