Tang Beibei ran to find herself an outfit and avoided Jiang Jingchenâs question.
But she asked herself in her heart â they got married without falling in love, so it couldnât be said that they liked each other, right?
After changing her clothes, she went downstairs. When she saw Jiang Jingchen, she didnât know why but she didnât dare to look at him directly and only stole a glance.
âIâll go do some reading first. Let me know when we are going.â
âOkay.â
Jiang Jingchen saw that the womanâs cheeks were flushed, and she avoided his eyes. She was feeling shy.
She wore a dress in the same color as his suit, and her hair was tied up a bun. She was a picture of youth and beauty, like a flower blooming in the morning sun.
She got her book but after opening her textbook, she kept thinking about the manâs question. Her cheeks burned and her brain felt like it had been fried. She could not concentrate on reading at all.
She felt a little frustrated that she couldnât figure out her behavior.
She knocked herself on the head to remind herself to concentrate and study. However, when she noticed the manâs wheelchair approaching her, her heart beat like a wild animal trying to escape her chest.
âBeibei, letâs go.â
The man wheeled himself up to her and patted her on the head.
âWhy are you knocking yourself on the head? Doesnât it hurt?â
âNo, it doesnât hurt. Letâs go.â
His large hand made her heart beat even faster, and she quickly got up to dodge him.
Jiang Jingchen stared at her with a frown. Did she dodged him because she didnât want to be close to him?
Tang Beibei also realized that she had overreacted. Feeling slightly guilty, she pushed his wheelchair out the door.
The two of them sat in the back seat of the car as they drove. He could feel that she was deliberately keeping a distance between them. He narrowed his cold eyes and controlled his anger.
When they arrived at the Jiang residence, Tang Beibei craned her neck and looked out the window.
It was a three-story European-style villa, elegant and refined. It was surrounded by mountains on three sides; it could be considered an auspicious building with good fengshui.
As expected of a wealthy family, the Jiang residence was huge!
Song Zhou stopped the car. When he unfolded the wheelchair and carried Jiang Jingchen out of the car, he felt the cold air emitting off Jiang Jingchenâs body and shivered.
âYoung master, did something happen?â
If nothing had happened, was he trying to scare people to death with his gloomy expression?
âItâs got nothing to do with you.â
Even the manâs words emitted cold air. Song Zhouâs legs turned to jelly as he tried to recall what happened this morning.
The young master was in a good mood this morning, like the warm sun in spring. How did it turn into winter in the blink of an eye?
âYoung madam, you can exit the car now.â Song Zhou said.
He couldnât handle the young master, so he could only let Tang Beibei take over.
âThanks.â
Tang Beibei got out of the car and saw Song Zhou walking to the side, hinting for her to take over Jiang Jingchenâs wheelchair, so she quickly walked over.
Jiang Jingchenâs face was gloomy. Was he in a bad mood because they were at the Jiang residence? Tang Beibei thought to herself.
Song Zhou led the two of them in, but they were stopped by four bodyguards at the gate, who asked to search them.
âHow dare you! The young master is back, and you want to search him?â
The four bodyguards looked at each other, but they didnât back down and insisted. âThis is the rule. Anyone entering the villa will be inspected, young master.â
Song Zhou sneered. If they inspected a returning young master, it was bullying and a show of authority!
âWhat if we refuse?â
The four bodyguards took a step forward and formed a wall. âIf you refuse inspection, you canât enter the villa.â
âYouâ¦â
âCough, cough, cough. Song Zhou, let them inspect!â Jiang Jingchen said.
Song Zhou was furious, but he could only endure the inspection when he heard Jiang Jingchenâs order.
Tang Beibei was also very angry. She asked Jiang Jingchen in a low voice, âDo they always bully you like this?â
They returned to his family home but they treated them like criminals and inspected them. The Jiangs were too much!
After searching Song Zhou, they wanted to search Jiang Jingchen. Tang Beibei stepped forward and stopped them.
âSong Zhou is a subordinate and subjected to search. But Iâm the first young madam of the Jiang family. If you touch me, itâs molestation!â
The four bodyguards didnât hide the mockery in their eyes. The young master was disabled, and she, the young madam, still wanted to act like a tyrant.
Erm, to put it bluntly, if the four of them molested her now, the crippled young master couldnât do anything except feel anxious.
One of the bodyguards stepped forward and said sternly, âEven the first young madam will be searched.â
The man started to search Tang Beibei with his hands. Jiang Jingchen frowned and coughed once quickly. Song Zhou immediately stepped forward, took out a dagger from his back and stabbed the bodyguard who touched Tang Beibei.
Tang Beibei moved back as the bodyguard moved forward. Suddenly, the bodyguardâs eyes widened in horror, and he stopped moving.
In order to prevent Tang Beibei from seeding blood, Song Zhou threw the man aside and put pressure on his bleeding wound, his eyes ruthless.
The other three bodyguards did not expect Song Zhou to be so bold as to kill someone on the Jiang property. They immediately took out weapons to defend themselves.
Song Zhou looked at them fearlessly. âOur young madam has already said that I can be searched but you cannot touch her. Touching her without her consent is equivalent to violating her.â
âYouâre dreaming if you think youâll get away with bullying our young madam!â The other three bodyguards were stunned. They thought that the sickly first young master was weak and easy to bully, but they realized they were too naive when they saw his tough subordinate.
Meanwhile, a man walked out of the villa and asked, âDid something happen?â
âSecond young master, the first young master is here.â The three bodyguards answered in unison.
Jiang Minglang laughed, âOh my, itâs big brother. What are you doing outside? Come on in.â
Tang Beibeiâs face was cold as she said sarcastically, âWe want to go in too, but these bodyguards stopped us and wanted to inspect us. If we refuse inspection, we wonât be allowed in. My husband doesnât come home often, yet heâs blocked by outsiders.â
Jiang Minglang saw that even when the woman was angry, she was beautiful.
He couldnât help but take a few more glances before he looked at the bodyguard lying on the ground and pretended to scold them.
âWhat are you guys doing? The first young master is back. Just let them through!â
âSorry, second young master. Itâs our fault.â
The three bodyguards quickly helped the injured bodyguard up and apologized with their heads bowed.
âBig brother, come on in.â
The way he welcomed them so warmly meant that he wanted to move past this incident quickly.
Jiang Jingchen coughed twice, looked at Jiang Minglang and said gently, âIâm back. Of course we want to go in, but some people feel it inauspicious if they didnât see blood. I can only fulfill their wish.â
The smile on Jiang Minglangâs face froze. He stared at the man in the wheelchair with a frown. Jiang Jingchenâs threat didnât sound weak at all. Jiang Minglang suspected that he was pretending to be seriously ill.
Tang Beibei pushed the wheelchair in and let out a cold scoff when she passed Jiang Minglang.
Jiang Minglang gritted his teeth.. He would make this woman leave this place in tears later!
