Tang Beibei wanted to go home. She felt that she needn’t recuperate in a hospital for her minor injuries.

She also felt the pinch as the hospital ward charges weren’t cheap.

However, Jiang Jingchen insisted that she stay in the hospital. He even lied, “This room is specially reserved for me by the Jiang family. Payment is made on an annual basis whether the room is used or not.”

Tang Beibei didn’t feel the pinch if she was spending the Jiangs’ money.

In the morning, someone knocked on her door.

Tang Beibei turned her head and was surprised to see Ruan Qi and Fu Jin.

Ruan Qi walked to Tang Beibei’s bedside and looked at the wounds on her face with a guilty expression.

“Beibei, that night when 1 went to get a drink, someone told me that you had a stomach upset and went to the toilet. 1 couldn’t find you when 1 went to the toilet. When I called you, your husband said that something happened to you, and you’ve been hospitalized.”

“I have been set up. Sigh, it’s a long story. Fortunately, I’m okay. Please don’t worry.”

Fu Jin placed the flowers he brought on the bedside table. The ward was instantly filled with the rich fragrance of lilies.

Fu Jin asked, “Beibei, are you feeling better?”

“Yes, I feel much better now. There are just some bruises on my wrist and face. They won’t affect my dancing.”

Tang Beibei pointed at her own cheeks. There were still a few bruises from someone’s thumb but she smiled indifferently.

Fu Jin frowned. Tang Beibei was so fair-skinned. It made the bruises on her face stand out.

“I’m sorry. 1 organized the outing but you got injured. It’s my fault as the captain for not taking good care of you.”

Tang Beibei hurriedly waved her hand. “Captain, don’t say that. Someone was determined to hurt me. Even I couldn’t guard against it.”

Tang Beibei didn’t want to say that the waiter had used Ruan Qi as an excuse to lure her to the private room. She was worried that Ruan Qi would feel guilty. Fu Jin organized the outing with good intentions, and she didn’t want him to feel guilty either.

“Do you know who set you up?”

“Yes, it was Lu Linlin.”

“Lu Linlin? Is there a grudge between you two?” Fu Jin was puzzled.

Ruan Qi said angrily, “This young miss of the Lu family is sick in the head. It must be because Senior Song Kai treats you well and she’s jealous. She set you up to get back at you.”

Tang Beibei sighed too as she also couldn’t understand Lu Linlin’s thinking.

She noticed that Jiang Jingchen, who was sitting next to her, was raising his eyebrows at her. She quickly realized why and made introductions.

“Hubby, this is my classmate, Fu Jin. He’s also the captain of the dance troupe I joined. Fu Jin, this is my husband, Jiang Jingchen.”

Fu Jin looked at the man in the wheelchair, who had hideous scars on his face. He wasn’t impressed and greeted Jiang Jingchen perfunctorily, “Hello, I’m Fu Jin.”

Jiang Jingchen didn’t say anything just now. He was observing them. He could feel that Fu Jin was very concerned about his wife. Clearly, he was one of his love rivals.

Sigh, his wife was too outstanding, and there were too many people who liked her. It was quite annoying.

He held Tang Beibei’s hand and said, “Have a seat. Thank you for visiting my wife.”

Fu Jin glanced at their clasped hands and looked away indifferently. He continued to question Tang Beibei, “How did you know that Lu Linlin wanted to harm you? Do you have any evidence? Once we get the evidence, we’ll sue her. We must make sure that she’s punished by the law!”

Tang Beibei replied, “The four men who assaulted me have come here and apologized to me. They also said that they will turn themselves in and give up Lu Linlin. However, Lu Linlin has the support of the Lu family, so it won’t be easy to punish her.”

Fu Jin glanced at Jiang Jingchen. No matter how powerful the Lu family was, could they be more powerful than the Jiang family?

Seeing the first young master of the Jiang family in a wheelchair, Fu Jin secretly licked his teeth, feeling indignant.

The woman he liked was with a cripple. She was bullied, but he couldn’t even protect her. It was simply infuriating!

“It seems that it would take some effort to make sure that Lu Linlin is punished. Beibei, since you call me Captain and I’m the one who organized the outing, I won’t let this go!”

“Fu Jin, what are you going to do?”

“Don’t worry about that. I have my own way of doing things, but don’t worry, I won’t do anything illegal.” Fu Jin comforted her.

Jiang Jingchen understood that Fu Jin was going to teach Lu Linlin a lesson. He was also curious about Fu Jin’s capabilities.

He deliberately showed weakness and said, “Then I’ll have to trouble Mr. Fu. It’ll take me a lot of effort to have her punished.”

Fu Jin sneered in his heart. How capable could a cripple be?

He smiled politely. “Jiang Jingchen, it takes effort to take care of Beibei too.”

Jiang Jingchen heard the sarcasm in his tone and smiled. “Sigh, 1 can’t move my legs yet. I can’t do anything else, so I can only accompany Beibei.”

Fu Jin was depressed when he saw Jiang Jingchen played with Tang Beibei’s slender hand as he spoke.

Ruan Qi could hear the tension between the two men. She cleared her throat and quickly changed the subject, “Beibei, when will you be discharged? I’ve applied for leave for you, but it can’t be too long too. Professor Chen even found me and asked me what happened to you.”

At the mention of Professor Chen, Tang Beibei remembered the reading assignment he had given her and her scalp went numb.

“Soon. Very soon.”

She didn’t want to talk to them anymore and went to look for her book. Fu Jin and Ruan Qi didn’t want to disturb her and left together.

Jiang Jingchen walked them out of the ward. The three of them didn’t bother with any small talk as they walked out.

Jiang Jingchen wasn’t upset. Ever since he disguised himself as a cripple, countless people had brushed him off. If he got angry every time, he would have died from anger.

However, even though there were thousands of people who looked down on him, there was still a silly woman who protected him, loved him, and cared for him.

But someone actually dared to bully her!

He contacted Song Zhou and asked him for an update.

Song Zhou said, “The fish has taken the bait. Now, we’re just waiting to pull the line.”

“Hold off your plan for a bit. Someone might deal with Lu Linlin soon and I want to watch the show.”

Song Zhou was curious. “What did Lu Linlin do? Who else wants to punish her?”

Jiang Jingchen smiled and looked out at the white sky with narrowed eyes.

“He’s my love rival, and he’s going to teach Lu Linlin a lesson for my wife. How can I not watch the show?”

Song Zhou suspected that he wasn’t just watching Lu Linlin’s show, but also his love rival’s performance.

Tang Beibei was indeed beautiful. She had a good figure and was easy to get along with. In addition, she had a healing smile. His heart would also flutter when he looked at her.

However, she had created too many love rivals for the young master…

There was Lu Fan, and then Song Kai, and now a new guy. Tsk, tsk. Fortunately, she was already married to the young master. Otherwise, it would be difficult for the young master, a pretend ugly cripple, to successfully woo her!

A love rival left in the morning, and another one arrived in the afternoon.

Jiang Jingchen heard Song Zhou report that Song Kai was coming to see Tang Beibei. Jiang Jingchen raised his eyebrows and slumped on the bed.

“Beibei, 1 feel a little sleepy. I’m going to take a nap.”

“Okay, you go ahead. I’ll read.” Tang Beibei bit her finger and flipped the pages of her book with her other hand.

When she heard the knock on the door, the door was pushed open, she saw Song Kai. She wanted to speak, but when she thought about Jiang Jingchen sleeping beside her, she lowered her voice.

“Senior Song Kai, why are you here?”

“Beibei, what’s wrong with your voice?” Song Kai also brought her a bouquet of flowers. When he heard her speak in a low voice, he thought that her throat was injured and walked to her bedside worriedly.

Tang Beibei pointed at the man who was sleeping beside him. “My husband is asleep. Let’s talk quietly.”

When Song Kai saw the man’s arm around Tang Beibei’s waist, he really wanted to kick the man off the bed and tell him to get lost..
