Tang Beibei’s hair reached her waist. Every time she practiced dancing, her hair would get wet. If she didn’t wash it for a day, it would seem to stick together.
The hairstylist asked her what hairstyle she wanted. Tang Beibei was a little lost and looked at Jiang Jingchen.
Jiang Jingchen said, “Get your artistic director to design a hairstyle for my wife.”
The hairdresser saw that the man had an imposing manner and was a rich man. He asked the artistic director to join them, and a woman came down the stairs.
“Do you prefer long or short hair?”
“Long hair.” Tang Beibei continued, “But no permed hair, please. Curly hair is difficult to manage. Qiqi complains to me every day about her wavy hair.”
Jiang Jingchen glanced at the artistic director. What a coincidence. It was Fang Han, the young miss of the Fang family he just met in the morning.
He retracted his gaze and grabbed Tang Beibei’s hair. “Beibei, do you want to color your hair?”
“I’ve never colored my hair before. What color suits me?” Tang Beibei struggled to feed herself in the past and had no money to color her hair, so she never studied what hair color suited her.
Fang Han crossed her arms. “Miss, your face will look very beautiful with these hairstyles.”
Tang Beibei looked at the photos Fang Han showed her and was okay with all the suggestions. But Jiang Jingchen felt that they were nothing new. He didn’t think his wife deserved a run-of-the-mill hairstyle.
He asked Fang Han to design something unique for his wife. Something that suited her face and personality.
His wife was unique in his heart, so the things that he gave her must be unique too.
He was never stingy when it came to problems that money could solve.
Fang Han ran a business and wouldn’t let go of any opportunity to make money. She drew a few hairstyles for Jiang Jingchen to choose from. In the end, he picked a playful hairstyle with curly ends for Tang Beibei.
Tang Beibei was bored when she was getting her hair done, so Jiang Jingchen showed her the videos he recorded of her dancing.
There were three people performing on stage but in his video, there was only Tang Beibei.
Also, there were two of them when they were practicing, but Tang Beibei was the only person on his video.
Tang Beibei looked at him in surprise. “Hubby, you’re quite good at video recording. You made me look so good.”
Jiang Jingchen laughed. “Are you complimenting me or you?”
“Both. If I look good, I won’t embarrass you when we are out together.”
Jiang Jingchen nodded and pointed at his face. “But I’m so ugly. Wouldn’t 1 embarrass you when we are out together?”
“Not at all. I like you even if you are ugly. If you are too good-looking, I’ll feel insecure when you are out.”
Jiang Jingchen poked at her face. “Do you have no confidence in me or in yourself?”
“Both!”
Tang Beibei recounted honestly, “A few days ago, a junior in the School of Management confessed her love to a senior but that senior already had a girlfriend. Qiqi said that good-looking men always attracted unwanted attention from all sorts of bees and butterflies.”
“I would be so sad if you were lured away by some bee or butterfly.”
Jiang Jingchen thought to himself that no bee or butterfly would dare to approach him even if he gave them a lion’s heart.
On the other hand, his simple-minded wife, who was like a flower that bloomed too well, attracted quite a few wolves and tigers. Every one of them appeared humble and sunny on the outside, but were, in fact, dark and vicious on the inside.
“I don’t like random bees or butterflies. 1 only want my silly little Beibei.”
He had used the word “want” cleverly.
Tang Beibei’s cheeks were burning; she really wanted to shut him up.
The two of them were whispering and no one would hear them. Jiang Jingchen was shameless when teasing his wife.
After chatting for a while, Tang Beibei felt a little sleepy. Jiang Jingchen asked the staff to bring an eye mask and put it on for her. He also gave her a neck pillow and asked her to take a nap.
Fang Han sat at the side drinking tea and heard their conversation intermittently. At first, she sneered in her heart.
How silly of this woman to believe the man’s coaxing words.
But later, she was surprised to see the man take care of the woman so patiently.
When she saw that they were both wearing wedding rings, she suddenly remembered that Jiang Minglang wanted to find Jiang Jingchen a wife some time ago.
Could this woman be Jiang Jingchen’s wife?
They were both young masters of the Jiang family, but why was there such a huge difference?
“I didn’t expect the sickly Young Master Jiang to be so good at taking care of women.”
Jiang Jingchen wasn’t surprised that she recognized him. “She’s my wife. Of course, I must take good care of her.”
Fang Han choked. She took a sip of tea and sized him up. Although he was wearing a mask, she could see his nice features.
The Jiang family had good genes.
If she hadn’t been bewitched by Jiang Minglang’s appearance, she wouldn’t have become his girlfriend.
“Have you never thought about repairing your face?”
“My wife said that if I’m too good-looking, I’ll invite unwanted attention. She feels more secure if I’m ugly.”
Fang Han’s mouth twitched. Who would believe that?
Just because his wife said that she felt more secure if he was ugly, was he going to be ugly forever?
“First Young Master, your situation isn’t very good at home, huh?”
Jiang Jingchen smiled and turned his head to face her. “Miss Fang, your mood isn’t very good after your breakup, huh?”
Fang Han gritted her teeth. Unable to continue chatting, she got up and went upstairs.
Jiang Jingchen turned his head and saw his wife’s closed mouth open and felt her grab his hand. He chuckled.
He knew that she wasn’t asleep and was listening to their conversation.
He whispered in her ear, “Quickly get some sleep. You should rest now because you’ll be very tired when we get home.”
It took more than three hours to do her hair. Tang Beibei was still not done when she woke up. She took out a book from her bag to read.
She told Jiang Jingchen about Professor Chen. “I think Professor Chen is really good and he treats me well.”
Jiang Jingchen saw that she was holding a reading list and glanced at it. There were more than ten books on the list. It would take her a while to finish reading all the books there.
“He treats you well because he makes you read?”
“Yup. Professor Chen said that this is wisdom from our ancestors, passed to me through him. So, 1 must study hard. Moreover, whenever 1 have any questions, he always explains to me.”
Jiang Jingchen thought to himself that although his wife looked silly, she was quite perceptive.
But she wasn’t as perceptive when it came to her feelings.
Otherwise, she would have been taken away by those hungry wolves.
“And you’ll pass on what you learn. Do you want to be a doctor in future?”
Tang Beibei was stunned for a few seconds. “Your question made me hesitate.”
Jiang Jingchen was amused once again by her blank look. “This is about career planning. Of course, it shouldn’t affect your studies.”
Tang Beibei puffed up her cheeks. “Give me another year. If I like dancing more than my major, I’ll switch courses. If 1 still decide to become a doctor, I’ll have to study even harder.”
“Dancer, doctor, both are good choices. No matter what you choose, your husband will always support you.”
“Hehe, Brother Jing is so nice.”
“It sounds nicer if you call me ‘oppa’.”
Tang Beibei stood in front of the mirror and looked at her brown hair, which made her skin look fairer. She liked her hairstyle. It was easy to manage without being over the top.
It was a hairstyle she was comfortable with.
Fang Han walked over. “Mrs. Jiang, let me take a photo of you and put it in my shop as a model. I’ll give you a 50% discount.”
“Really?”
“Sure.”
Tang Beibei was happy to oblige when there was a discount.
After taking the photo, Fang Han looked at Jiang Jingchen and took out a gift box.
“Here are some haircare products, compliments from the shop. The final bill is 160 yuan. With the 50% discount, it only costs 80 yuan.”
Tang Beibei was about to pay when Jiang Jingchen stopped her. “Beibei, I’m working now. I can afford this bit of money.”
Jiang Jingchen took out a card and Fang Han swiped it. The actual bill was 36,000 yuan, but when she showed the bill to Tang Beibei, it was 80 yuan.
Fang Han looked at Jiang Jingchen and smiled.
This man wanted to pamper his wife and she was happy to play along. Moreover, she was happy to witness this kind of thing. She gave them a few small gifts as tokens of appreciation.
When Tang Beibei walked out of the hair salon, she said, “It’s quite cheap to do my hair here, only 80 yuan. 1 remember that Qiqi spent more than 1,000 yuan to do her hair.”
“Places that Song Zhou picks for us will definitely be inexpensive.”
“That’s true. Song Zhou really knows how to live!”
“And I don’t?”
Jiang Jingchen was a little jealous. He thought of Song Zhou’s daily complaints about him being a spendthrift. “I know. You want to compliment me for being especially good at f*cking my Obedient Beibei.”
