When they were back in the classroom, Tang Beibei told Ruan Qi dejectedly, “Wen Nan. The thought of her having a relationship with my husband makes me sick.”
Ruan Qi sighed. “Beibei, you and Jiang Jingchen were strangers. He’s almost 30. It’s normal for him to have a few relationships before he got married.”
“When an ex comes and challenges the wife, you mustn’t be afraid or be led by the nose!”
Ruan Qi admired herself for saying those words. She did not expect that she had the potential as a relationship expert.
Sigh, she could only rationally analyze other people’s relationship problems. When it came to her own, she was flustered and did not know how to deal with them at all.
“Qiqi, you’re right. 1 can’t fall for Wen Nan’s tricks. If I’m unhappy about something, I should discuss it with my husband.”
Tang Beibei made a fist excitedly.
But she was terrified when she saw the man in the afternoon.
She did not know where to begin. Would it be too much if she asked him directly if he had slept with Wen Nan?
If he had really slept with Wen Nan, wouldn’t she be even more unhappy?
But what if he hadn’t?
Actually, it wasn’t a bad thing if he had that kind of experience, right? If he had learned it from other women, she wouldn’t have to suffer.
A million thoughts ran through her mind but she still couldn’t figure out how to ask him.
She was so frustrated!
She rolled down the window and looked out at the clouds.
It was late autumn. Although the sun was out and the sky was clear, the heat and dryness of summer were far behind them, and cool wind blew into the car.
She suddenly turned to the man beside her and said, “Jiang Jingchen, look at that cloud. Doesn’t it look like a couple?”
Jiang Jingchen followed her finger and looked out of the window, but he didn’t see it. “Does it?”
“Yes!”
Jiang Jingchen looked at the woman’s serious expression and held back his laughter. “Alright then. Whatever you say. So?”
Tang Beibei was waiting for him to say that. She giggled and then asked, “Jiang Jingchen, how many times have you been in love and how many women have you slept with?”
Jiang Jingchen was stunned and stared at her seriously.
“Why do you ask?”
Tang Beibei looked at him. “Can’t you tell me? If you don’t want to tell me, then forget it.”
Jiang Jingchen didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at her disappointed voice. He pinched her small face.
“Did you apply medicine on your face? Also, why do you sound nasal? Do you have a cold?”
Tang Beibei pressed on, “Hubby, I’m fine. Why don’t you tell me about your past? How many women have you slept with?”
Jiang Jingchen was helpless. He lowered his head and kissed her on the lips.
“Take a guess.”
Tang Beibei’s eyebrows were furrowed deeply as she said anxiously, “I don’t know how to guess. Jiang Jingchen, don’t make me guess.”
“You’re the only one. Do you believe me?” Jiang Jingchen said.
“Really?”
“I don’t need to lie to you.” Jiang Jingchen pinched her ear as punishment for her doubting tone.
“Then, Wen Nan and you never had that kind of relationship?”
“What kind of relationship?”
Jiang Jingchen narrowed his eyes when he heard Wen Nan’s name. He knew that something must have happened when this girl suddenly asked such a question. It seemed that Wen Nan had said something to her.
“Is she worthy?”
“Huh?”
“What I mean is that she’s just my private physician. We only have a doctor-patient relationship. Because we have known each other for a long time, we can also be considered friends. Beibei, please explain what you mean by that kind of relationship.”
Tang Beibei was a little annoyed when she saw him pretending to be confused. “You know what I mean.”
“How would 1 know when you didn’t even explain?” Jiang Jingchen teased her.
“You, you told me last night not to learn how because you know it and you can teach me.” Tang Beibei explained honestly.
“Oh, that thing. 1 can only do that thing with my wife, not any random woman.”
“Beibei, don’t take what others say seriously. The next time you see Wen Nan, tell her that I will take her to court and ask her personally why she told you things that are untrue.”
Tang Beibei stared at him. Ruan Qi had told her that since they were husband and wife, she should trust him.
Since he was willing to explain, she would choose to believe him.
“Hubby, 1 believe you. Do you have other secrets that you are keeping from me?”
“Secrets?” Jiang Jingchen’s eyes were profound as he changed the subject. “Like certain part of my body you would like to explore?”
“… You, don’t talk nonsense.” Tang Beibei blushed. She didn’t expect the man to suddenly say this.
“Isn’t it a secret to you?” Jiang Jingchen continued to ask.
Tang Beibei’s cheeks were burning with embarrassment. She turned away from him and stopped talking.
However, she was quite happy to hear that he hadn’t had that kind of relationship with Wen Nan. She looked out the window with a smile.
But she didn’t know that Jiang Jingchen made a cruel decision when she mentioned Wen Nan just now.
He was tolerant of Wen Nan because she had once nursed him back to health. But Wen Nan had no self-restraint and even went to tell Tang Beibei all sorts of nonsense.
She shouldn’t blame him for killing her!
After returning to the villa and having dinner, Tang Beibei read a book and completed her assignment. Instead of practicing dance in her home studio, she went to take a shower.
When Jiang Jingchen returned to their bedroom and saw that the woman was already lying in bed, he checked the time.
It was only half past nine.
Usually, she would be busy until eleven o’clock before she prepared for bed.
“Beibei, why are you sleeping so early? Are you feeling unwell?”
“No, I’m not.” The woman avoided his gaze as if she had done something wrong.
Jiang Jingchen sat down by the bed and held her cheek to check the wound on her face.
There were still some red marks, but they looked much lighter compared to yesterday.
“Beibei, why is your face so hot?”
“I feel warm, that’s all. Hubby, hurry up and take a shower.”
“Are you really alright?”
“I’m fine!” Tang Beibei raised her voice and pushed him to take a shower.
Puzzled, Jiang Jingchen looked at her a few times before he got up to take a shower.
When he was done, he lay down beside her, still worried, and pressed his forehead against hers.
“Beibei, your face is still a little warm. Are you feeling okay?”
Tang Beibei shook her head and looked up at him. “Hubby, will you disdain me if 1 caught a cold?”
“Of course not. Silly Beibei, why would I disdain you?”
Everyone disdained him when he was pretending to be seriously ill except her. He would give her everything and treat her well, for life.
“Then, then I do have a slight cold.”
“1’11 go get you some medicine.”
He turned to get up, but the woman hugged him. He looked at her in confusion.
“Hubby, 1,1 know a way you can cure me. Will you help me?”
Jiang Jingchen lay down beside her. “Tell me, what is the cure?”
“The cure is a folk remedy. It is to work out a sweat.”
Jiang Jingchen nodded in agreement. “It’s indeed not good to take too much medicine. Let’s not take medicine. Let’s go and exercise.”
He still wanted to get up. Tang Beibei felt like she was roasting under the covers.
“No, you don’t have to get up. Hubby, there are many ways to work out a sweat.”
“I don’t? What kind of exercise do you have in mind?” Jiang Jingchen didn’t consider anything else because he was worried about her health.
Tang Beibei couldn’t take it anymore. She opened her arms and hugged him. “Hubby, didn’t you notice that I’ve taken off my pajamas?”
“Yes, I did. Why did you take off your pajamas?”
Tang Beibei was angry and anxious, but she was too embarrassed to say it.
She already took off her pajamas and hinted at him about working out a sweat. Didn’t he say that he knew it very well?
Why didn’t he get her hint now?
Jiang Jingchen looked at her blushing face and slowly realized what she meant. His black eyes lit up as he chuckled.
“Beibei, you can’t go back on your word about this.”
“No, I won’t!”
She wanted to capture his heart and make him hers!
