Lu Fan was walking with his head lowered. His face was pale, and he looked haggard.

When he suddenly heard Tang Beibei’s voice, he thought that he was hallucinating because he missed her too much.

He looked up and saw the girl walking towards him against the sunlight with a bright smile on her face.

It was her.

He wasn’t hallucinating!

“Beibei, why are you…” Lu Fan stopped mid-sentence when he saw blood on her sleeve and quickly walked up to her. “Beibei, you’re hurt. Let me bring you to get your wound treated.”

Tang Beibei looked down at the wound on her arm. She couldn’t speak but her arm hurt when she tried to raise it.

She turned her head and waved goodbye to John. John smiled and said, “Her husband is really young and handsome. I wish her happiness.”

“Hey, no.” Tang Beibei wanted to explain, but John had already driven away.

When Lu Fan heard someone thought of him as Tang Beibei’s husband, he was delighted. He felt like a dry pool that was suddenly filled with fresh water. He helped Tang Beibei into the hospital with an uncontrollable smile on his face.

Beibei definitely liked him. Why else would she chase after him so hard after she found out that his family had sent him to M-Country? And she even got hurt?

“My wound is fine. I want to find my husband.”

“… Your husband?” Lu Fan wanted to but didn’t ask her if she meant him in her heart.

Many girls would refer to their crushes or boys they would like to pursue as their husbands.

“Yeah, he’s in this hospital for treatment.” Tang Beibei said.

Lu Fan’s lips curled up. His gaze was filled with gentleness.

He had been punished for disobeying his grandfather and his back had been hurt. So, he was indeed at this hospital in M-Country for treatment.

So, she meant him when she said “husband”.

“Haven’t you already found him?”

“Huh? No. I’ve asked around yesterday but couldn’t find him.” Tang Beibei still had lingering fears when she thought about what happened last night.

Lu Fan’s heart ached with regret when he heard her aggrieved words. He had stayed at the villa when he arrived in M-Country last night and had only come to see the doctor today. If he had come here earlier, she might have been able to find him.

“Beibei, it’s been hard on you. Once your wounds have been treated, I’ll bring you to rest.”

“No need. Thank you, Senior Lu Fan. I need to find my husband first.” Tang Beibei insisted on going to the front desk to ask if there was a patient named Jiang Jingchen.

H H

When Lu Fan heard her say Jiang Jingchen’s name, his face turned pale, and he looked at her with sadness in his heart.

So, she didn’t come here to look for him, but for the disabled Jiang Jingchen.

He clenched his fists in disappointment. He wanted to leave but his heart softened when he saw her deep frown.

“Beibei, 1’11 help you find him.”

The two of them went asking around the hospital, even checked the hospital records, but they still couldn’t find any information about Jiang Jingchen.

Lu Fan comforted her, saying that perhaps he was at another hospital. He wanted to take her to get her wound treated and then bring her back to the hotel so she could rest. He told her that without rest, she might not even be well enough to take care of her husband when she found him.

Tang Beibei was dejected. She looked at the wound on her arm and decided that she should get it treated first.

After she was injured, she was scared all night and caught a cold. She also slept late last night, so she had to take her condition seriously and have the doctor examine her thoroughly.

Lu Fan said, “Beibei, come stay at my villa. I can take care of you.”

Tang Beibei thought that she did not have her ID with her and could not check into a hotel anyway. So, she followed Lu Fan back to his villa.

When they arrived at the villa, Tang Beibei took a shower and changed into a new set of clothes. After lunch, she felt groggy and lay on the sofa for a nap.

“Beibei, don’t sleep here. You’ll catch a cold.”

Tang Beibei tried to sit up. She pulled her wounded arm and frowned in pain.

“Senior Lu Fan, I’m so lucky to run into you. Otherwise, I wouldn’t know what to do without money or a phone.”

Lu Fan chuckled. “It must be fate that you met me. Let’s go, 1’11 bring you to rest.”

Tang Beibei got up, feeling weak all over. Lu Fan was worried that she would fall, so he reached out to help her and took her to the guest room to rest.

Lu Fan covered her with the blanket and comforted her softly, “Have a good sleep. I’ll accompany you. Don’t be afraid.”

Tang Beibei was a little embarrassed. “Senior Lu Fan, I’m sorry to trouble you. You can go and do your work. I’m a good sleeper.”

It was Lu Fan who wanted to stay by her side and watch her sleep. However, there were some things he could not tell her, so he nodded agreeably.

“I’ll go back to work when you’re asleep.”

Tang Beibei closed her eyes and very soon, her breathing slowed and she was asleep.

Lu Fan bent over her bed and smiled as he watched her sleep.

He wished that time would stop at this moment so he could stay with her quietly like this.

Bang!

Suddenly, there was the sound of a door being forced open downstairs.

Lu Fan frowned and went downstairs. A servant said fearfully to him, “Young Master, these two forced their way in after 1 told them that I would call the police.”

Lu Fan looked at the two people downstairs. The man standing in front was wearing a mask and a neat suit. Behind him was Song Zhou.

Were they Jiang Jingchen’s people?

Lu Fan didn’t answer but asked, “You’re trespassing!”

“Really? But you are a kidnapper. Tell me, where’s Young Madam?” Song Zhou asked.

The masked man standing in front of Song Zhou had no patience and rushed upstairs. Lu Fan wanted to stop him, but was punched away. Lu Fan touched the blood at the corner of his mouth.

“Who are you? If you want to bring Tang Beibei back, let your young master, Jiang Jingchen, do it himself!”

The masked man sneered and looked at him coldly. He went straight to the guest room to look for Tang Beibei.

Seeing the woman in bed, Jiang Jingchen felt as if he had been stabbed in the heart.

Did she rushed to M-Country just to see Lu Fan and sleep in his bed?

He clenched his fists and flipped open the blanket to scoop her up.

“Put her down. You can’t take her away without her consent!”

Lu Fan rushed into the guest room and grabbed Jiang Jingchen’s arm to stop him from carrying Tang Beibei.

The masked Jiang Jingchen suppressed his anger as he watched Lu Fan having the gall to stop him. He shook off Lu Fan’s arm and strangled his neck.

He wanted to kill him!

Tang Beibei was his woman when she was alive, and a ghost of the Jiang family when she was dead. Who was Lu Fan?

“Gag… Let, let go!”

Lu Fan’s face was red and he couldn’t breathe. He did not expect this man to actually want to kill him.

His struggle for survival caused a commotion and woke up the sleeping Tang Beibei. She opened her eyes in confusion and saw a masked man trying to kill Lu Fan. She was instantly alert and roared in a hoarse voice, “You, let go of Lu Fan!”

The man did not let go but instead tightened his grip. Lu Fan’s face turned purple. He might actually be strangled to death by this masked man.

She had to save Lu Fan. Tang Beibei picked up the lamp from the bedside table and smashed it at the masked man.

Crash!

The table lamp shattered.

The man suddenly turned around and revealed a pair of vicious black eyes. Tang Beibei shrank back in fear.

“Murder is illegal. Let go of Lu Fan. We can talk things out!”

The man stared straight at her, his eyes hurt and angry. He threw Lu Fan away and turned to walk towards Tang Beibei.

Tang Beibei retreated in fear.. “W-why are you hurting Lu Fan? W-who are you?”
