Song Zhou didnât want to be there either, but when the young master saw her standing with another man, talking and laughing, the cold air around him almost froze Song Zhou to death.
For his own survival, Song Zhou got out of the car with the excuse to pick her up.
âIâm here to pick you up, Young Madam.â
Tang Beibei didnât think too much about it and said to Jiang Jingchen on the phone, âHubby, I saw Song Zhou already. Iâll see you soon.â
âOkay, Iâll be waiting.â
Song Zhou glanced at the phone that was still connected. How could these stinky schoolboys compare to his young master when it came to scheming, Song Zhou thought to himself.
Lu Fan was considered outstanding among rich second-generation heirs, but he was still chased out of the country by the young master with just a few words.
However, Tang Beibei was too attractive. After chasing one boy away, there was another.
Tang Beibei hung up when she saw Jiang Jingchen in the car, she smiled and chit-chatted with him.
Jiang Jingchen didnât ask her about the boy she was with â he could find out himself. Tang Beibei didnât complain to him about the rumors she encountered in school, his heart ached for her as he rubbed the top of her head.
âBeibei, did you encounter anything happy in school today?â
Tang Beibei thought about how she encountered nothing happy in school that day, but many annoying things.
However, she did not want to bother him with the matter, so she smiled and said, âOne happy thing was receiving your call while in school just now. Seeing you now is another happy thing!â
Jiang Jingchen was flattered and kissed her. Tang Beibei widened her eyes and quickly reciprocated.
The two of them looked at each other after, smiling.
Song Zhou, who was worried that the two of them would quarrel, was stunned for a few seconds when he saw them from the rearview mirror before he silently accepted their show of affection.
Back in the villa, Tang Beibei went upstairs to read after dinner. Jiang Jingchen gave Song Zhou a look and Song Zhou pushed him out to the balcony.
âThe video of the old lady was made by Rong Chanâer. The person who helped spread it by posting it anonymously on the school forum was Yuan Jiaojiao. She probably still hates Young Madam.â
âHmm, how are things in the Rong family?â Jiang Jingchen asked nonchalantly.
âThe Rongs have been quiet lately. Iâve already sent someone to investigate Rong Corporation. There will be a report soon that will bankrupt the company.â âBankrupt, huh?â
Jiang Jingchen was not satisfied. The Rongs had treated his wife so badly. How could he let them off so easily?
âInvestigate the private affairs of the Rong family.â
âPrivate affairs?â Song Zhou pondered over Jiang Jingchenâs intentions. It seemed that it wasnât enough to just bankrupt the Rongs. He wanted to destroy them!
âGot it. Iâll go now!â Song Zhou turned and was about to leave when he heard Jiang Jingchen say, âSettle the Old Madam Tang matter first!â
âYoung Master, may 1 have your instructions, please?â
Old Madam Tang was the young madamâs grandmother, so Song Zhou did not dare to use the usual methods of revenge on her.
âSince she likes to make videos, make another one for her. Also investigate her relationship with the Rong family!â
âYes, Iâll get someone to do it now!â Only then did Song Zhou leave.
Jiang Jingchen looked at the vast night sky. It was pitch-black out with only a few stars in the sky. He calmly withdrew his gaze and returned to the study.
In the study, all the lights were turned off except for a table lamp. The womanâs side profile was elegant and quiet under the table lamp.
âBeibei, why donât you turn on the overhead lights?â
Tang Beibei looked up from her book, turned her head and said, âIâm happy with just the table lamp. Itâs a waste of resources to turn on so many lights.â
Jiang Jingchen was helpless. His wife probably wanted to save money.
He didnât turn on the overhead lights but pushed his wheelchair up to her. He then rested his chin on his hands and stared at her.
Tang Beibei was embarrassed by his stare and looked up at him. âWhat are you looking at?â
âLooking at you.â
âWhatâs there to see? I have two eyes and one mouth.â Tang Beibei said.
Jiang Jingchen was amused. He leaned over and kissed her on the cheek. âI think you look good.â
Tang Beibeiâs cheeks were red from his kiss. She was so shy that she didnât dare to look at him.
Under the lamp, her flushed cheeks looked like cuteness seeping through fine porcelain. He was really tempted and pulled her into his arms.
âHow is your reading going?â
âIâve only read a few pages. There are many things I donât understand that 1 had to do more research.â
Tang Beibei leaned into his embrace, feeling at ease.
Although people said that he was not good, she felt that there was no one better than him.
âIs it very difficult to understand?â
âYes, itâs a professional book. It will take some time to understand the material.â
Tang Beibei was a little distressed. She suddenly thought of something and said, âIn the past, I could always ask Senior Lu Fan when I didnât understand anything. Now that heâs overseas, I canât really bother him.â
ââ¦â Jiang Jingchen licked his teeth. This woman was really⦠Never mind. It would hurt their relationship to argue with her over such small matters.
âThen Iâll continue reading.â
She got out of his embrace. She must complete the assignment that Professor Chen gave her.
âBeibei, have you ever thought about what kind of person you will be in the future?â
Tang Beibei tilted her head and thought for a while. She frowned and seemed to be struggling. In the end, she said, âBe a very good doctor.â
âJudging from your tone, isnât there anything else you want to do?â
âNo.â Tang Beibei lowered her head and mumbled, âWhen I was young, 1 couldnât go to the hospital when I was injured. 1 thought then I should become a doctor so I could treat myself when Iâm injured again.â
Jiang Jingchen furrowed his eyebrows. How bad an injury had she suffered that made her want to become a doctor who could treat herself?
âAlright, then Iâll help Beibei become the best doctor!â
Tang Beibei was very happy to have someone supportive of her ambition. âWell, what about you, hubby? What are you going to do when your legs recover?â
âWhen my legs recover, I want to have a baby with you.â
Tang Beibei looked at the man with his scarred side profile hidden in darkness. The scarless side of his face was shining under the light. She lowered her eyes shyly and did not speak.
âBeibei, arenât you going to do it with me?â The man saw that she was shy and deliberately teased her.
Tang Beibei was so embarrassed that she wanted to cover her face. âW-weâll have to wait until your legs recover. I-Iâd like to talk about it after 1 graduate from university.â
âDo we have to wait that long?â
Hearing the manâs disappointed tone, Tang Beibei grabbed his hand helplessly. âI want to complete my studies. Iâll have to go on a leave of absence if Iâm pregnant. Hubby, Iâd like to discuss having babies after my graduation.â
Jiang Jingchen thought for a few seconds. âGive me a kiss. Maybe Iâll agree.â
Tang Beibei smiled and kissed him on the lips, but Jiang Jingchen grabbed the back of her neck and took over.
The next day, Tang Beibei went to school. Ruan Qi told her that she had asked someone to help investigate, but there was still no news.
Tang Beibei was really grateful to her. âQiqi, since 1 canât find the mastermind and I donât really care about those malicious comments, Iâll remain calm and wait for the person to show himself or herself. He or she will surely continue to find trouble with me.â
Ruan Qi was doubtful. âIâm just afraid that those negative comments will affect your scholarship and your studies.â
Tang Beibei exhaled loudly. âThey wonât. The scholarship is based on results. As for my studies, I wonât be affected by those non-existent things!â
She would be lying if she said that she was not affected, but she didnât want Ruan Qi to worry about her.
At that moment, Ruan Qiâs phone vibrated. It was a message.
Ruan Qi opened it and saw a video. Her eyes widened in shock.
âBeibei, thereâs been a shocking turn of events.. Come and see!â
