Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Tang Beibei heard the man’s roar and looked at him in shock.
He called her by her full name and with hatred.
She did not know what she had done wrong and just stared at him blankly.
Was he angry because she suddenly came to find him without his consent?
“Hubby, I’m sorry. I…”
“Shut up and scram!”
Jiang Jingchen was in no mood for any apology.
He didn’t need an apology. He needed her to be honest and sincere. All this was a joke!
He thought that he had married an honest woman but it seemed that everything was just a joke.
The feeling of betrayal sucked!
“Scram?”
Tang Beibei was still at a loss. She wanted to say something, but she was afraid of upsetting him further. She gritted her teeth and got up to leave.
After closing the door gently behind her, she broke into tears.
She had rushed to M-Country because she missed him. She had been robbed and had spent the night in fear on the streets. She had finally met him but all she got in return was one word.
Scram.
He asked her to scram. Did it mean that he didn’t want her anymore?
Would he divorce her when they returned home?
Probably. He was so angry; he definitely wouldn’t want to see her again.
The more Tang Beibei thought about it, the sadder she became. She didn’t expect her time impulsiveness to upset him so much.
Her face was streaked with tears, and she could taste the bitterness in them. She quickly wiped them away with her sleeve. When she raised her hand, she accidentally tugged at the wound on her arm. She rolled up her sleeve and saw that the white gauze had been stained red.
She had no money on her now, where could she go?
“Madam, what are you doing here? How did the discussion go with Young Master?”
Tang Beibei sniffled as she tried to calm herself down. “Song Zhou, can you do me a favor?”
“Sure.” Song Zhou’s attitude was cold.
“Help me book a flight home. I remember that I still have homework to finish. 1 have to rush back to finish my homework.” Tang Beibei made an excuse.
“… Alright.” Song Zhou frowned.
The young madam had driven the young master crazy, yet she was thinking about her homework? Did Tang Beibei even have a heart?
The plane ticket was easy to book, and Song Zhou bought it very quickly. Tang Beibei lowered her head and said, “Thank you. Can you also lend me some money?”
Song Zhou took out his wallet and gave Tang Beibei a wad of cash in frustration. His attitude was as if he was giving alms.
“Have you told Young Master that you are going home?”
Tang Beibei held back her tears and kept the money Song Zhou lent her. “He was the one who asked me to leave.”
She walked away before Song Zhou could ask her more questions.
Song Zhou followed her two steps but saw her enter the elevator. He then went back to the hotel room and knocked anxiously before he entered.
The lights were off in the dimly lit room and there was the smell of cigarette smoke. The lit cigarette in Jiang Jingchen’s hand illuminated his gloomy face, which was filled with loneliness and sadness.
Song Zhou sighed in his heart. It had been so many years for his young master to find someone he cared about. This woman didn’t cherish him and openly eloped with another man… The young master must be fuming mad this time.
“Young Master, did Young Madam leave with the other man because you’re wearing a human mask and pretending to be a cripple?”
“Oh, my disguise?”
If Tang Beibei betrayed him because of his ugly appearance, she wasn’t worth his time.
“Go and ask the old master of the Lu family. Does he want his grandson or the Lu family?”
“Yes.”
Song Zhou knew that his young master would never let Lu Fan off this time, but judging from his tone, he still could not bear to lose Tang Beibei. It was obvious that he really cared about her.
Song Zhou’s phone rang suddenly.
Song Zhou saw that it was Ruan Qi calling, so he quickly left the room and closed the door before he answered the call.
“Butler Song, have you found Beibei? Was your young master very surprised that Beibei went to look for him? Did your young master recover even faster?”
Song Zhou’s eyes widened in surprise. “Are you saying that Tang Beibei came to M-Country to find my young master?”
“Yeah, didn’t she find you?”
Song Zhou gulped in fear.
Could they have misunderstood Tang Beibei?
“But why did she come to M-Country? My young master isn’t here for treatment at all. This is just her excuse, right?”
Ruan Qi was unhappy. “She was worried about her husband and went to ask someone. When she found out that your young master was in M-Country, I was the one who helped her book her plane ticket and sent her to the airport.”
“It’s Beibei’s first time overseas. She knows nothing about the outside world and went there just to give her husband a surprise. And she bought such an expensive plane ticket. Why would she lie to you about this? Judging from your tone, did something go wrong?”
“Do you know that Lu Fan has also come to M-Country?”
“I don’t know why Senior Lu Fan went to M-Country. Tang Beibei is so smitten by your young master that she doesn’t even like a handsome guy like Lu Fan. Did Senior Lu Fan go to M-Country to mend his broken heart?” Ruan Qi guessed.
“Oh no. This is bad.”
He quickly hung up the phone and opened the door. “Young Master, Young Madam didn’t come to M-Country for Lu Fan. She came here to find you!”
Jiang Jingchen turned to look at him. “What? She came to M-Country to find me?”
He put out his unfinished cigarette in the ashtray and scoffed, “I’m not even in M-Country! Who is she looking for?”
Song Zhou also thought that it was ridiculous at first, but Ruan Qi said that Tang Beibei had gotten the information from someone. Regardless of who that person was, there was something fishy about this matter.
“Let me call Lu Fan to verify.”
Song Zhou found Lu Fan’s contact number and called him.
“Lu Fan, did my young madam come to M-Country with you?”
Lu Fan chuckled. “Haven’t you humiliated me enough? Are you mocking me again?”
Song Zhou was anxious. “Then how did you meet my young madam?”
“At the hospital. She was looking for her husband. She said that her husband is in the hospital for treatment. Did Jiang Jingchen not tell her because he’s dying? Was he afraid to tell her?” Lu Fan counterattacked.
“…” Jiang Jingchen’s expression changed. He got up from the sofa and walked up to Song Zhou.
Song Zhou asked hurriedly, “You mean, Young Madam came here to find Young Master and it was a coincidence that she met you?”
Lu Fan chuckled coldly, “What else? Also, she was robbed when she arrived in M-Country. Her identity card and money were taken and she was injured. Her wound is slightly infected. Please be careful not to let it worsen. Although it wasn’t a big wound, there’s still a risk for tetanus. I’d advise you to bring Beibei to the hospital and have her examined!”
Although Lu Fan hated Jiang Jingchen, he still cared about Tang Beibei.
Jiang Jingchen remembered that when he grabbed Tang Beibei’s wrist, she said that it hurt. It turned out that she was injured. He felt guilty and rushed out.
Before Song Zhou could hang up, he heard loud thuds. It was his young master, who was pretending to be a cripple, running out.
Song Zhou sighed. The young master’s disguise would be exposed now.
He followed Jiang Jingchen out, but saw Jiang Jingchen running back. “Where’s my wife?”
“I helped her book a plane ticket back to China. I-I’ll check if the plane ticket has been picked up.”
Jiang Jingchen gritted his teeth. “Who told you to book tickets for her? Song Zhou, are you seeking death?”
“…” Song Zhou did not dare to speak.
Jiang Jingchen took out his phone to check Tang Beibei’s location. The necklace he gave her had GPS tracking.
“Erm, Young Master, if you don’t want to pretend to be a cripple, then wear a mask.” Song Zhou chased after him.
They drove to a tourist attraction. Jiang Jingchen looked at the pale woman squatting on the ground, and his heart ached.
He had been so angry that he had wronged her before he asked.
Damn it!
For a moment, he did not know how to face her.
The woman coughed twice, stood up, and took two steps. Her entire body swayed, and she fell to the ground.
“Beibei!”
Jiang Jingchen’s expression changed as he ran over without a care..
