Song Kai turned his head and saw Jiang Jingchen with a face mask. He smiled indifferently.
âYoung Master Jiang, how are you?â
âHello, Second Young Master Song,â Jiang Jingchen said politely, but he deliberately added the word âsecondâ as a warning.
He looked at Song Kai coldly as he strode up to Tang Beibei and held her hand.
Tang Beibei was pleasantly surprised to see him. She beamed as she asked softly, âWhen did you get here?â
âI just arrived. Iâm here to pick you up.â Jiang Jingchen answered softly too.
Seeing the hickeys on her neck, he gently pressed on one.
âDoes it hurt?â
âNo, you pressed very gently.â Tang Beibei hadnât noticed the marks on her neck yet.
âGood. Iâll apply medicine for you when we get home.â Jiang Jingchen glanced at Song Kai as he said this and took Tang Beibei by the hand to their car.
Song Kai said goodbye to Tang Beibei and his face darkened.
How could he not see that Jiang Jingchen deliberately talked about those hickeys in front of him?
Lu Fan was willing to let Tang Beibei go, but he wasnât.
After Tang Beibei sat in the car, she reacted belatedly, âWhat medicine do I need?â
âI left some marks there last night.â
Jiang Jingchen kindly pointed at her neck, but she couldnât see it herself, so he took out his phone to take a photo for her.
Tang Beibei covered her face in embarrassment when she noticed the marks.
âOh my god, I didnât even notice them. But other people have seen them!â
Jiang Jingchen chuckled. âItâs my fault. Iâll be more careful next time.â
Tang Beibei stroked her neck. She was annoyed that she did not check it before she came out. If she had, she would have worn a scarf to cover the marks.
âFortunately, I didnât go to dance practice today. People will surely notice them when Iâm in my workout clothes. 1â11 definitely be laughed at.â
Jiang Jingchen comforted her, âIt just means that you are very loving with your husband. The singletons will surely be envious of you when they saw them.
They laugh just to cover up their jealousy. You donât have to mind.â
Tang Beibei looked at him. âI almost believed you. This is so embarrassing.â
Jiang Jingchen rubbed her head and lowered the partition in the car. He pulled her onto his lap and told her in a low voice, âBeibei, we havenât seen each other for more than seven hours. Do you miss me?â
Tang Beibei hugged his neck and whispered in his ear, âI do.â
âBeibei, take off my mask.â
Tang Beibei took off his mask. When she saw his handsome face, she felt infatuated all over again.
âHubby, youâre so handsome.â
âYouâve said it several times this morning.â
âBut I still want to say it.â Tang Beibei smiled and continued, âYouâre so handsome and youâre my husband. Iâm happy but nervous.â
âWhat are you nervous about?â
âIâm afraid that youâll be snatched away.â
Tang Beibei said seriously, âMany girls nowadays would change their worldviews based on someoneâs outward appearance. Youâre so good-looking, so you would definitely catch many girlsâ eyes.â
âDr. Wen has seen you like this before. Isnât she interested in you and wanted to do things with you?â
Jiang Jingchen laughed in amusement. âWhen you first saw me, why didnât you change your worldview based on my outward appearance?â
Tang Beibei thought for a moment and answered seriously, âI didnât have a choice at that time. I married a chicken so I must follow the chicken. I became your wife, so I had to be with you.â
Jiang Jingchen couldnât help but kiss her when he heard her simple and honest answer.
âYou still have no choice now and forever but to be with me!â
âIt seems so.â
The woman chuckled. She found their bantering interesting.
When they arrived at home, Silent Sister made double-boiled soup again. Tang Beibei drank the soup and looked at the dining table. There was fish, pork trotters, and stir-fried chicken. It was a sumptuous dinner.
âWhatâs the occasion?â
âNo occasion. I just wanted you to have some nourishment. Beibei, eat more.â
Tang Beibei didnât know whether to laugh or cry. She was worried that she would get fat if she ate so much when she skipped dance practice today.
Seeing her furrowed brows, Jiang Jingchen said, âBeibei, we canât waste food. Try to finish it.â
âYes, we canât waste food!â
While Tang Beibei thought about how she should watch her weight, there was only one thought in her mind when she picked up her chopsticks. Delicious food shouldnât be wasted. She had to eat it all!
Jiang Jingchen saw her eating happily and also developed an appetite.
Yes, they should eat their fill, so theyâd have the strength to continue exercising tonight.
Tang Beibei didnât get the manâs intention and took the two puppies out for a walk after dinner.
Although Silent Sister had brought the two puppies out to play during the day, they were still very playful when they went out again.
Jiang Jingchen watched his wife and two puppies playing happily. He felt that although the weather was getting colder, he felt warm and looked forward to his days ahead.
After a walk around the neighborhood, the two of them went home and Tang Beibei studied for a while.
Jiang Jingchen looked at the time and asked her to take a shower.
Tang Beibei checked the time and saw that it was only 9 p.m. âItâs still early. Iâll study for a while more.â
But Jiang Jingchen said, âYou donât have to sleep immediately after washing up.
You can still read after taking a shower.â
âOkay.â
Since he chased her, Tang Beibei didnât want to argue and went to shower.
When she came out of the shower, the manâs body was also damp. He also took a shower.
She wanted to go to the study to continue studying, but the man hugged her and asked her softly, âBeibei, do 1 look good?â
âYes, you do.â
âSince I look good, why donât you look at me more?â
Tang Beibei was stunned for a few seconds. When she came back to her senses, she had already been carried to bed. Only then did she realize that she had been tricked by the man.
She thought that she had been through so much last night and wanted to rest tonight.
However, the man told her that having sex was just like dance practice. If she did not practice for a few days, she would become rusty. Therefore, once they started, they couldnât just stop.
Tang Beibei looked at him suspiciously. Must they have sex every day?
Jiang Jingchen coaxed her, âItâs best if we do it every day. We donât have to do it too often, but you mustnât reject it and must keep up with me.â
âBeibei, when you dance, do you practice the movements until you master them?â
âI do. Sure.â
âThere are many movements in bed we should master too. Letâs practice together.â
What he said seemed to make sense, but why did she feel that something was off?
It was warm and fuzzy in the bedroom but outside, the cold autumn wind blew.
As leaves gracefully detached from tree branches and drifted down with the wind, the scenery turned more bittersweet.
Outside another villa, Jiang Minglang was about to unlock the door with his fingerprint when a brawny man suddenly appeared.
Jiang Minglang felt the danger, but he wasnât as fast as the brawny man and was knocked unconscious by him with a stick.
When he came to, he had a splitting headache. He looked up and saw that he was in his villa, and a burly man with wounds was sitting across from him.
âYou, who are you? What do you want?â
âWho am I? You donât recognize me anymore? Jiang Minglang, donât forget that you were the one who asked me to break Jiang Jingchenâs legs. If we hadnât accepted your job, my two brothers wouldnât have died. Iâm here for payback!â
When Jiang Minglang realized who he was, his head hurt even more.
âI didnât kill anyone. I didnât kill your two brothers.â
âThey came to you for help, but they never came back. Jiang Minglang, stop quibbling.. Give me a million yuan to save my other brother, or Iâll end you today!â
