Jiang Jingchen took a big step toward Tang Beibei, clasped the back of her neck, and lowered his head to kiss her lips.
“Obedient Beibei, you’re not smart enough to make up nonsense.”
“I’m not making up nonsense. I love you the most, Brother Jing.”
Jiang Jingchen curled his lips and was in a good mood.
He rubbed her cheeks with both hands. The woman was happy to indulge him and snuggled against his palms fawningly.
Jiang Jingchen squatted down in front of her. “Come on up.’1
Tang Beibei smiled and wrapped her arms around his neck. She lowered her head and kissed his ear as she said shyly, “My Brother Jing smells the best!”
Jiang Jingchen couldn’t hold it any longer. The gloominess in his eyes disappeared and he couldn’t help but smile. His handsome face was more eye-catching than a blooming flower.
Ruan Qi watched as the two of them walked away and nudged Fu Jin with her elbow.
“See that? It’s impossible for the two of them to quarrel. Jiang Jingchen values her more than his own life. How could he bear to make her sad?”
“When these two fight, they are more like flirting. It gives me goosebumps.”
Fu Jin replied, “Ahem, they got into their car, so…”
“So what?” Ruan Qi looked at him in confusion.
Fu Jin looked at Jiang Jingchen’s car driving away and looked at Ruan Qi sympathetically. “So, how are you going get home now that Jiang Jingchen’s car has left?”
“F*ck!”
“Jiang Jingchen, sh*t…” Ruan Qi held back her curses. Did the sh*t head need to do that just because someone piggybacked his wife?
Fu Jin looked at her flushed face and couldn’t help but laugh out loud. “I’ll give you a lift.”
“No need.”
Ruan Qi snorted coldly and took out her phone. “You make it sound like I don’t have a boyfriend. Even if I have a boyfriend, I can still be self-reliant and take a bus home to save the environment!”
Ruan Qi wanted to call Song Zhou at first but decided against it on account of his injuries. She went online to find a nearby bus stop to take a bus home.
Since Ruan Qi insisted on taking the bus, Fu Jin did not force the issue and left in his car.
When Ruan Qi was back at the villa, Jiang Jingchen still wasn’t home. She found Song Zhou on the balcony, working on his laptop.
He had to take care of things that Jiang Jingchen didn’t want to do.
When he heard footsteps, he closed his laptop and turned his head. The corners of his mouth curled up when he saw that it was Ruan Qi.
“What were you doing that you had to close your laptop when you saw me?”
Ruan Qi quickly walked behind him and hugged him.
Song Zhou explained, “Nothing. I was just playing games. I had a feeling you’re here so I stopped.”
Ruan Qi asked curiously, “How did you feel it?”
“Listening to footsteps. Everyone’s footsteps are different. You’re impatient; your strides aren’t long, but you walk fast. Moreover, you land on the balls of your feet, so your footsteps are light.”
“Wow, your observation is so detailed.”
Ruan Qi was surprised. She did not expect him to be so meticulous and even study people’s footsteps.
Song Zhou held her hand and pulled her onto his lap.
“I’m meticulous only because it’s you.”
“I’m happy when I hear your footsteps.”
Ruan Qi pinched his face. “You have more and more coaxing words now. You’ve learned this bad habit from your young master.”
“No, my personality is different from Young Master’s.”
“Young Master is knowledgeable in his words and thoughtful in his coaxing. I’m not highly educated so I don’t speak well. Everything I say is very layman.” Song Zhou said honestly.
“If you are not highly educated, how are you so nimble and quick on your computer when you edit our videos?”
“Young Master taught me many things. As for video editing, I taught myself.”
Ruan Qi was surprised. She glanced at him and quickly changed the subject. It did not seem right to talk about his level of education.
“When are you going to talk to your fiancee about calling off your engagement? I feel weird as long as you’re not broken up.”
Song Zhou’s expression also turned serious. “I’m sorry for making you uncomfortable.”
“She and I have an agreement. I’ll give her my blessings if she’s met someone she liked. She didn’t reply to my messages. I still don’t know what’s going on with her. I’ll go talk to her.”
Ruan Qi nodded with a smile. “After your engagement is called off, we’ll choose an auspicious date to register our marriage.”
Song Zhou chuckled and lowered his head to kiss her.
“I haven’t even gone through the proper rituals yet. I must let you marry me proudly.”
Ruan Qi did not mind all that. “I’m not a vain person. I’ll feel very proud if you give me all your salary cards after we get married.”
Song Zhou nodded earnestly. “I’ll give them to you. When we save enough money, we’ll buy our own villa next to Young Master’s villa so that our children will grow up together.”
Ruan Qi looked at the large villa next door and tsked once in her heart.
“Let’s not force ourselves. A villa would be too big for just the two of us. We can buy a cheaper apartment and not become slaves to our home.”
Ruan Qi guessed that Jiang Jingchen was wealthy. Song Zhou always dressed in a low-key manner, so she wasn’t sure about his financial situation.
However, this man was willing to give up his life for her. She didn’t really care how much money he had.
Most importantly, she loved him.
The two of them chatted happily for a while before they heard a car downstairs. Jiang Jingchen had returned.
They walked to the balustrade and looked down. Jiang Jingchen got out of the car, opened the other car door and carried the woman out of the car. He didn’t let her feet touch the ground and carried her all the way into the house.
Jiang Jingchen carried the woman to the living room and sat her down. He wiped her hands with a wet tissue and told her not to move while he went to ask Silent Sister about dinner.
Silent Sister gestured that dinner was ready and could be served at any time.
Jiang Jingchen asked her to serve dinner. He then returned to the living room and carried the woman to the dining table and sat her down there.
Silent Sister was already used to seeing Jiang Jingchen take care of Tang Beibei. She put the dishes and rice on the dining table before she retreated respectfully to the side.
Ruan Qi and Song Zhou came downstairs and saw that the two of them had started eating and exclaimed why they didn’t wait for them.
Jiang Jingchen glanced at Ruan Qi coldly and said, “It’s not like you don’t have hands or mouths. Do you need me to serve you dinner?”
Tsk, he was still angry.
Song Zhou pulled Ruan Qi back and told her to shut up. His young master had a bad temper; it was better not to provoke him.
The two of them sat down quietly and began to eat. Then, they heard Jiang Jingchen ask Ruan Qi, “How did my wife fall?”
Ruan Qi recounted, “I was a few people behind Beibei at that time. Beibei suddenly fell when she was going down the stairs. Fortunately, Jia Ran caught her and she didn’t tumble. Then…”
Suddenly, Song Zhou tugged at her clothes and Ruan Qi realized that she was done for after saying the wrong thing.
The temperature in the dining room dropped, making people shudder.
Jiang Jingchen turned to look at Tang Beibei. “You’re quite lucky in love. To be caught by one man and piggybacked by another, huh?”
Tang Beibei’s head hurt as she looked at Ruan Qi.
Her mistake was fatal!
She had just finished coaxing him and then Ruan Qi lit another fuse.
“Jia Ran held me to stop me from falling. That was all.”
Jiang Jingchen replied, “Oh? Were you expecting more?”
“No, I wouldn’t dare. He was only trying to help. He definitely doesn’t have that kind of thought.” Tang Beibei quickly defended herself.
The man snorted and continued eating his dinner.
The atmosphere at the dining table was a little tense.
Ruan Qi and Song Zhou looked at each other. They both wanted to leave, afraid that they would become collateral damage.
Just as they were about to move, they heard Jiang Jingchen’s cold voice. “Since you are both so free, go to the TV station to investigate my wife’s fall.”
“Huh?”
Ruan Qi looked at him in surprise.
Jiang Jingchen explained, “My wife was wearing flat dancing shoes and the steps weren’t high. She wouldn’t have fallen for no reason. Unless…”
Jiang Jingchen looked at Tang Beibei with a sinister gaze. Tang Beibei gulped in fear.
He continued, “Unless she was infatuated with another man that she forgot that she was on the steps. After she fell, she just waited for him to save her like a hero saving a damsel in distress..”
