Chapter 97: Are You Trying to Trick Me?
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Song Hai promised Lu Linlin that he would seduce Tang Beibei and find a chance to destroy her.
Tang Beibei was indeed prettier than Rong Chan’er, and she had a sexy figure. He felt slightly aroused just thinking about her.
“Beibei, you don’t have to worry about my identity. I’m just a fan who was really attracted to your dance moves. Add me on WeChat. If you need any help, you can look for me.”
Tang Beibei didn’t want to have anything to do with him, so she took another two steps back.
“Sorry, I don’t use WeChat.”
“Oh, Beibei, why are you so defensive?”
Song Hai was a little pissed. This was the first time he had been rejected by a woman.
He thought that Tang Beibei resisted him earlier because her friend was around, and she had to pretend. So, he approached her again when she was alone.
Tang Beibei was not a person who beat around the bush. “I’m not being defensive. I don’t want to be friends with you. You know very well why you are trying to get close to me. Why do you need me to expose you and embarrass you?”
“Beibei, you’re wrong. I am just a fan. If you are interested in becoming a celebrity, I can help you.”
Song Hai put on an innocent smile.
The young master of the Song family was quite good-looking. If he put on a pitiful and wronged look, most women’s hearts would go out to him.
However, Tang Beibei was resistant to him. Her heart didn’t go out to him. In fact, the look made her hate him even more.
“Are you trying to trick me? Sorry, I’m married.”
Song Hai was annoyed that she wasn’t budging.
He had already lowered himself so much, but this woman was trampling all over him.
This aroused his desire to conquer her even more. He would wait for her to submit to him!
“Beibei, don’t be angry. 1 really just want to be friends with you. Since you don’t like it, I’ll stop. However, Song Enterprise has a celebrity production team. This is my business card. If you want to give it a try, give me a call.”
Tang Beibei didn’t take the business card from him and turned to leave.
Song Hai stopped her again. His voice was much gentler as he tried to coax her, “Beibei, take my name card. You won’t regret it.”
“Your name card? Aren’t you afraid that it would dirty my wife’s hands?”
A cold voice came from behind them. Song Hai turned around in surprise and saw a man with scars on his face in a wheelchair.
The man was so recognizable that Song Hai knew without asking that he was the first young master of the Jiang family, Jiang Jingchen.
Song Hai sneered in disdain and looked at Tang Beibei again. She was even prettier than Lu Linlin.
What a pity that she was married to an ugly cripple!
“You must be the first young master of the Jiang family, Jiang Jingchen. Nice to meet you.” Song Hai said mockingly.
Although the Jiangs were a prestigious family, everyone knew that after Young Master Jiang became a cripple, the head of the Jiang family, Old Master Jiang, stopped paying attention to him and even wanted to sever ties with him. As such, Song Hai didn’t think much of Jiang Jingchen.
Jiang Jingchen wheeled himself next to Tang Beibei and looked at Song Hai indifferently. “Young Master Song, are you deaf? My wife doesn’t want to be friends with you!”
Song Hai secretly gritted his teeth but said with a smile, “Beibei is just being reserved. I won’t mind.”
“Oh? I only have one word for you: shameless.”
“You!”
Song Zhou stepped forward to block Song Hai. He said with a knowing smile, “Song Hai, please mind your status. You’re not qualified to be insolent in front of my young master!”
“Who do you think you are? How dare you talk to me like that? I’m the heir of the Song family. You’re just a cripple from the Jiang family! A useless son!”
“Even then, you don’t have the right to be arrogant in front of my young master. I suggest you leave quickly and not be an ass here!” Song Zhou added.
Song Hai sneered. Although he didn’t think much of Jiang Jingchen, he was still a member of the Jiang family. He couldn’t sour the relationship too much and give others a reason to gossip.
“Jiang Jingchen, let’s just wait and see!”
Rumor had it that Jiang Jingchen would not live for more than half a year. It would be a matter of time before he conquered Tang Beibei.
Seeing that Song Hai finally left, Tang Beibei heaved a sigh of relief. She was really afraid that Song Hai would be stupid enough to get into a fight with them.
Feeling the woman’s heavy sigh, Jiang Jingchen squeezed her palm. “Scared?”
“I’m not scared, just annoyed.”
She didn’t know what was wrong with Song Hai that he came to pester her.
“Don’t be annoyed. What would you like to eat? My treat.”
At the mention of food, Tang Beibei stopped thinking about Song Hai. “I feel like hotpot. I haven’t had it for a while. But I can’t. You’re in recovery. You can’t eat oily food like that.”
Tang Beibei licked her lips when she thought about the taste of hotpot, but she was a little discouraged when she thought about Jiang Jingchen’s health.
“Then let’s go and eat hotpot. I’ll order a bowl of porridge and watch you eat.”
“Really? Can you stand it?” Tang Beibei hesitated.
She really wanted to eat hotpot, but she cared more about his health.
“Of course. Let’s go. Song Zhou, pick a hotpot restaurant.”
“Alright.”
When they arrived at the hotpot restaurant, people were coming and going. It was crowded and noisy.
Song Zhou frowned. His young master didn’t like noise but it was too late to book the entire restaurant. He wanted to persuade Tang Beibei to eat here another time.
Jiang Jingchen turned his head and looked at him coldly. Song Zhou shivered and shut up.
Finally, they got their seats. Song Zhou asked for two tables because he didn’t want to sit with them and be a third wheel.
Jiang Jingchen ordered a plain porridge and a few cold vegetable dishes. Tang Beibei also ordered a few vegetable dishes.
“Beibei, why are you eating so little?”
He knew her appetite very well. Moreover, she had exercised so much this afternoon. How could she only eat so little?
“A few vegetable dishes will do. The meats are too expensive!”
“… It’s okay. My treat.”
He knew that she lived frugally, but he didn’t expect her to stinge on food. His heart ached a little.
“We’re family. The money you spend is also mine. I’d better save it.” Tang Beibei gave him a silly smile.
Jiang Jingchen was helpless. “What about the money you earned this afternoon?”
“I still have to be thrifty. Commercial performances like today’s doesn’t happen every week. I don’t want to live from hand to mouth.”
“Alright, let’s eat what you ordered.” Jiang Jingchen took out his phone and sent a message to Song Zhou.
Song Zhou, who was eating a one-person set meal, almost choked when he saw his young master’s message. He sighed helplessly.
His young madam was frugal, but her husband was a spendthrift!
Halfway through their meal, Song Zhou brought over some meat and prawns. “Young Madam, I accidentally ordered too much. I can’t finish the food. Help me.”
“But how can I? You’re a man. You should eat more meat.” Tang Beibei was shy about taking Song Zhou’s food.
“I already ate a lot. Look, there’s still plenty of meat on my table. I even ordered two servings of cuttlefish. I thought I could finish it, but I’m a little full now.” Song Zhou persuaded patiently.
Jiang Jingchen supplemented, “Since Song Zhou can’t finish the food, help him. You can treat him to a meal when you next cook.”
“Alright then.” Tang Beibei accepted the food.
The waiter saw that the man ordered so many dishes but was giving them to a woman, so she took out a big teddy bear and sat it opposite Song Zhou.
She then said sympathetically to Song Zhou, “Sir, this is your little companion. You will definitely find a better woman in future. Don’t just be a doormat. You deserve better!”
H H
Song Zhou, who had been misunderstood as Tang Beibei’s doormat, stared at the big teddy bear sitting across from him, and his eyes twitched.
His young master must compensate him for his reputation!
