They arrived at the villa.

Song Zhou carried Jiang Jingchen on his back and sat him the wheelchair. Tang Beibei reached out to push his wheelchair but Jiang Jingchen started to wheel himself into the house.

Tang Beibei looked at her empty hands and scratched her head awkwardly.

Jiang Jingchen was angry with her.

Song Zhou gave her a “good luck” look. But when he saw her frowning and lost, he couldn’t help himself.

He suggested to Tang Beibei softly, “Young madam, you might want to explain your relationship with Lu Fan to the young master.”

“I’m not in a relationship with him.” Tang Beibei said.

Song Zhou took a deep breath and continued, “It’s pointless to say it to me. Think about it. If you heard that your husband is another woman’s boyfriend, would you be sad?”

Tang Beibei thought for a while and nodded.

She would definitely be sad.

“So, it’s understandable that the young master is angry with you. Try to explain to him if not coax him.”

“Coax him how?”

Tang Beibei looked at Song Zhou unblinkingly, hoping that he would give her some advice.

Song Zhou tapped his lips and made a kissing gesture.

Tang Beibei was stunned and confused. “What do you mean?”

Song Zhou facepalmed himself. “Haven’t you been making him happy by kissing him?”

“Oh, I…” Tang Beibei was in the middle of her sentence when she heard a cold voice ahead of her.

“What are you whispering about? Is it another secret that I can’t know?”

Tang Beibei and Song Zhou quickly stood up straight and shook their heads.

Song Zhou tried to absolve himself first. “I was just asking young madam what she’ll be cooking for lunch. I’ll go buy the ingredients.”

“Yeah, that’s right. Hubby, do you have any special request?”

“No. Cook what you want. I have no appetite.”

His stomach was filled with anger.

His little wife was indeed capable. She had become Lu Fan’s girlfriend, and now she was whispering to his butler in front of him!

“If hubby has no appetite, I’ll make some appetizing dishes. I’ll send the shopping list to Song Zhou so he could help us buy the ingredients.” Tang Beibei said fawningly.

Song Zhou nodded quickly. “Okay, okay, I’ll go now.”

Jiang Jingchen scoffed. These two pretended well together.

He didn’t say anything more and wheeled himself into the house.

Song Zhou let out a deep breath and pushed Tang Beibei to follow his young master. “You go and accompany your husband. I’ll go and buy the groceries. Young madam, if you fail to pacify the young master, both of us will not have a good day today.”

He had worked for his young master for years. His young master rarely lost his temper, but if he did, no one would have an easy time.

Tang Beibei’s scalp tingled. “I, I will try my best.”

“You can’t try, you must go all in. You’re the one who made him angry so you must take responsibility!”

Tang Beibei sighed. She couldn’t argue.

With heavy footsteps, she walked into the house and saw the man reading a book by the sofa. She approached him cautiously.

“Hubby, I, I’ll peel an apple for you.”

As she spoke, she picked up an apple and started peeling it with a paring knife.

“Tell me about you and Lu Fan.” The man suddenly said.

Tang Beibei’s paring knife stabbed into the apple the very short strip of apple peel broke.

She cleared her throat and said, “Here’s what happened. I was eating lunch in the school cafeteria when a girl suddenly spat into my bowl and insulted me with all sorts of nasty words. Lu Fan helped me shut her up by saying that I was his girlfriend.”

“He said that because he was afraid that the girl’s malicious words would affect my scholarship.”

“How much is your scholarship worth?”

“Five, five thousand yuan. If I do really well, eight thousand.”

Tang Beibei was a little stumped when he interrupted her train of thought.

“You admitted that you’re Lu Fan’s girlfriend for so little money?”

Jiang Jingchen was in no mood to read at all. He wanted to tear the book apart.

This stupid girl actually sold herself for a few thousand yuan.

“I was wrong.” Tang Beibei lowered her head and admitted her mistake.

“Where did you go wrong?”

“For acknowledging a random person as my boyfriend.”

“Say that again?”

Jiang Jingchen couldn’t stand the way she said “boyfriend”.

Tang Beibei was frightened by the cold air on his body. She moved away to keep a distance from him.

“For… No, I shouldn’t have used senior Lu Fan as a shield. I’ll keep my distance from him in future. I’m sorry.”

Jiang Jingchen gritted his teeth in anger when he saw Tang Beibei move away while answering his question.

“Come back!”

“Okay.” Tang Beibei moved back to him nervously. She thought of Song Zhou’s suggestion and stole a glance at the man, her heart thumping.

“Beibei, you are a married woman. You need to keep your distance from any man who tries to cozy up to you, understand?” Jiang Jingchen said.

“Yes, yes, I’ll remember that.”

Tang Beibei clenched her fists to muster up the courage to kiss him. But when she met his eyes, she withdrew.

“Call Lu Fan now and tell him that you’re married.”

Tang Beibei took out her cell phone. “I’ve already told him that I’m married. He even advised me to get a divorce. I…”

“He advised you to get a divorce?”

The man said through gritted teeth as if he was going to bite her. Tang Beibei shivered.

Her angry husband was indeed scary!

“About that, I, I said no. I told him that I won’t get a divorce.” Tang Beibei quickly explained.

“Good. Divorce isn’t just about you. Did you hear what I said at the Jiang residence?”

“Huh?”

He said so many things at the Jiang residence. What was he referring to?

Jiang Jingchen grabbed her hand, pulled her onto his lap, and wrapped his arms around her waist.

“I said, once I’m married, there’s no such thing as divorce. Unless I die.”

Tang Beibei was surprised at the man’s terrifying strength. When she heard his words, she quickly covered his mouth.

“Hubby, don’t say die. I won’t divorce you.”

“Beibei, I won’t live long. You know that.”

Tang Beibei felt terrible when he talked about his own death so calmly.

“No. My teacher, Professor Chen, is a very good doctor. He said that your illness can be cured. You will be fine.”

“I don’t want to die either, Beibei. Were the words you said at the Jiang residence true?”

“Which words?”

“You said that you like me and that our union is predestined.”

“I, I only said that to refute Jiang Minglang. I didn’t… Mmmm.”

He didn’t want to hear the rest of her sentence.

Tang Beibei found it hard to breathe from his kiss. She patted his shoulder to beg for mercy. Out of pity, the man let go of her mouth but held her face and made her look into his eyes.

“Beibei, from now on, I’m the only apple of your eye.”

“Why apple of my eye? What does that feel like?” Tang Beibei asked while panting.

Jiang Jingchen smiled and whispered in her ear, “Close your eyes, stop thinking and kiss me.”

She listened to the man’s low and somewhat bewitching voice and felt her ears itch. She closed her eyes submissively and slowly closed in on his lips..
