Jiang Jingchen clicked his tongue as he watched Ruan Qi’s act.
“Miss Ruan Qi, you should consider an acting career.”
Ruan Qi waved her hand politely. “How can I be a better actor than you? You’re obviously a rich second-generation heir, yet you pretend to be pitiful and poor in front of Beibei. The world owes you an Oscar.”
“Likewise, likewise.”
Ruan Qi rolled her eyes and looked at Song Zhou. “Don’t learn from him, okay? He’s so two-faced that it’s scary.”
Song Zhou pursed his lips and deliberated for a few seconds before he said, “Young Master only hid those things in consideration of Young Madam’s spending habits. I’m just an employee and don’t have much money to hide.”
His young master had told him that Tang Beibei didn’t like him for being too rich and wished that he was uglier.
Tang Beibei and Ruan Qi were besties, so they should think alike, right?
Song Zhou felt that he had better pretend.
“I spend some of the salary Young Master pays me every month and save the rest. In a few years, when 1 have enough savings, 1 can buy a house.”
“It’s good enough that you have a stable job. 1 don’t believe that a woman must be supported by a man. I’m self-reliant and will find a job to support myself after I graduate.”
“I will still work hard to take care of my girlfriend. If I do well with Young Master, I’ll get a bonus. I’ll do my best.”
“Okay, as long as we move in the right direction, everything will become better.”
Ruan Qi revealed a bright smile brimming with enthusiasm for the future.
She was enthusiastic not because he might provide for her or buy her gifts or give her money, but because she wanted to run a household with him.
Jiang Jingchen looked coldly at Song Zhou, who was lying without blinking.
Haha, a person who owned a few entertainment companies abroad didn’t have much money? Song Zhou was worth at least seven or eight billion yuan!
He figured if Song Zhou wanted to buy a house, he would buy a villa, the kind that cost at least io million yuan.
After all, he already had a property in the capital city. The better villas there were not cheap.
The three of them watched each other pretend without calling each other’s bluff. Jiang Jingchen looked at the time and smiled suddenly.
“Miss Ruan Qi, at this time, 1 would suggest that you go and revise your studies. My wife is going to test you later, yeah?”
Ruan Qi gritted her teeth. “The future isn’t wonderful at all!”
Song Zhou was speechless.
Jiang Jingchen’s phone vibrated. He glanced at it and answered the call.
It was a woman’s voice.
“Mr. Chen, can we meet?”
“No need, it’s just business. If you’re not happy with my terms, you can say no.”
“I think there are some details that need to be discussed in person.”
“No need. I’m hanging up.”
Jiang Jingchen ended the call and raised his eyebrows when he noticed Ruan Qi staring at him.
“What can I do for you?”
“Jiang Jingchen, you won’t betray Beibei, right? Beibei is willing to sacrifice her life for you. You are a b*stard if you betrayed her!” Ruan Qi warned him without hesitation.
Jiang Jingchen chuckled. “Song Zhou, please keep your woman in check. She’s saying all sorts of nonsense.”
“What nonsense? Men cheat all the time, okay? If a woman treats him too well, he will assume that she would do anything for him and never leave him. He would become bold and seek out other women.” Ruan Qi was indignant.
Jiang Jingchen retorted, “Ruan Qi, you seem to know a lot about this.”
Ruan Qi was speechless as she glared at him angrily.
Jiang Jingchen restrained his expression and warned in a cold tone, “Don’t think that just because you’ve met an a**hole that all men are a**holes. Don’t say such things in front of my wife.”
Seeing Jiang Jingchen wheel himself out, Ruan Qi snorted coldly and muttered under her breath, “He’d better not be an a**hole, or he’ll be struck by lightning.”
“Miss Ruan, I think the most important thing for you now is to study.”
Ruan Qi’s face instantly fell.
“Even you are bullying me!”
“When did I bully you? Didn’t you tell me that Tang Beibei said that this topic would surely come out in the exam and that you must commit the answer to memory today?”
Song Zhou felt wronged. He was just trying to distract her. How did it become bullying?
“Hmph, men are all evil! You clearly know that I don’t want to study, yet you rub salt in my wound. Heartless!”
Song Zhou was stumped. He felt that women were really magical creatures. Explaining with reasons became heartlessness!
Jiang Jingchen got back to Tang Beibei’s ward and saw that she was pulling at her pajamas, looking very uncomfortable.
He got up from the wheelchair and walked up to her. “Where do you feel uncomfortable?”
“My back itches.”
Jiang Jingchen lifted her pajamas and scratched her back. Tang Beibei snuggled against him and said, “Hubby, I haven’t showered for a few days. My whole body is sticky and itchy.”
“You want to shower?”
Jiang Jingchen scratched her a few more times. “I’ll prepare a bath for you.”
Jiang Jingchen went to the bathroom and busied himself for a while before he carried her in. The bathtub had already been filled with warm water and the heater had been turned on. The bathroom was bright and warm.
Seeing that the man was about to help her take off her pajamas, Tang Beibei lowered her head shyly. “Hubby, you… Please call Qiqi over.”
“It’s not like I haven’t seen you naked. Ruan Qi is studying. Let’s not disturb her.”
“But, but, I’m not used to this kind of thing.”
“You will get used to it. Obedient Beibei, when you’re heavily pregnant and can’t move around easily, you’ll need me to bathe you.”
He replied seriously but Tang Beibei blushed even more at the thought of getting pregnant.
Jiang Jingchen saw that her ears were red, so he smiled and kissed the tip of her ear. He deliberately teased her, “Obedient Beibei, you’re so shy. Is there another place that itches where you need me to scratch?”
“No, no.”
“Really? I haven’t done it with you for a week. Obedient Beibei, don’t you miss me?”
Tang Beibei covered his mouth with her hand. The more he spoke, the more embarrassed she felt.
Jiang Jingchen chuckled and took her hand away. “Don’t move. We couldn’t do anything even if you missed me. Just have a good bath now. When you’re healed, we can do whatever you want.”
Tang Beibei was so angry that she puffed up her face. “You were the one who started it. 1,1 wouldn’t think about it.”
“You don’t miss me?”
Tang Beibei pursed her lips and said nothing.
Jiang Jingchen lowered his head and pressed his lips against hers. “A liar will be targeted by the devil, my Obedient Beibei’er.”
He deliberately added an “er” behind his nickname for her, like adding a hook to take away her soul.
Tang Beibei felt helpless. The devil was Jiang Jingchen himself.
“You what?”
“You…”
“What about me?” The man pushed his luck.
“I want to do it with you.”
Jiang Jingchen chuckled and kissed her lips.
He had such a cute wife at home, why would he care about the ethereal butterflies dancing beyond the fences of commitment?
Jiang Jingchen was drenched in sweat after he helped the woman bathe. Especially when he helped her put on her clothes. It was pure torture.
He quickly wrapped her hair in a towel and went to find a hairdryer to dry it.
His movements were smooth. It was obvious that he had dried her hair many times.
He then went to tidy up the bathroom. His phone on the bedside table vibrated and Tang Beibei looked at it curiously.
The caller ID showed “Unknown Caller”.
Tang Beibei answered the call and heard a woman’s delicate voice.
“Mr. Chen, after we’ve come to an agreement, let me buy you a drink.. When are you free?”
