Tang Beibei shook her head with a smile, but she said, “1 didn’t get anything when I went shopping but the heavens decided to bestow me with water. 1 only have water to bring home.”

Jiang Jingchen was amused by her self-deprecating comment. He raised his hand and stroked her forehead, worried that she would catch a cold.

Tang Beibei was fine but Ruan Qi, who was beside her, coughed twice. “There’s no hurt when there’s no comparison. You guys are making me feel so depressed.”

Ruan Qi was a direct person and said whatever she wanted, but she meant it as a joke.

Tang Beibei turned to look at her. “Qiqi, come back to our villa and have some ginger tea. Don’t catch a cold.”

Ruan Qi waved her hand. “I’m very healthy. It’s not a big deal. I’ll take a taxi home later.”

“We have dance practice later, Qiqi.”

Ruan Qi looked up at the man in the driver’s seat and chuckled. “It’s fine. I’d like to go home and change before going to the dance studio for training.”

Before Tang Beibei could persuade her further, Ruan Qi flagged down a taxi and left.

She was very determined. The man in the car looked at the taxi that was driving off with an empty gaze. One wondered what was on his mind.

Tang Beibei took a hot shower when she got home and changed into comfortable clothes. She was relaxing in the living room when Silent Sister brought her some ginger tea.

She frowned. After some persuasion from Jiang Jingchen, she obediently drank the tea.

She put down the bowl and sent a message to Ruan Qi to ask about her.

Ruan Qi said that she suddenly didn’t feel like going home and went straight to the dance studio. She had already changed into her dance attire and started practicing the new dance their teacher taught them.

Tang Beibei sighed. She could sense that Ruan Qi was in a bad mood.

Since Song Zhou’s rejection, she had tried her hardest to put up a calm front, but she had smiled less.

Seeing the man come over and sit down beside her, she immediately lay down with her head on his lap. The man also started combing her messy hair with his fingers.

The two of them looked at each other and did not speak.

Jiang Jingchen lowered his head and kissed her. She didn’t dodge but raised her chin to welcome his kiss.

The man chuckled. “That’s my Obedient Beibei.”

Tang Beibei blushed at his words. “Hubby, how’s the matter with Lu Linlin?”

Since they got hurt, she and Ruan Qi had been traumatized by Lu Linlin and didn’t bring up the topic. She asked now only because she was worried about Ruan Qi.

“I’ll need to ask Song Zhou for the latest information on Lu Linlin.”

Jiang Jingchen called out to Song Zhou and Song Zhou came out of his room covered in sweat. Apparently, he had been exercising in his room.

Jiang Jingchen looked at his sweaty back and raised his eyebrows. “What’s wrong? Upset about something?”

Song Zhou had a habit of exercising whenever he was in a bad mood.

“I’m fine.” Song Zhou tried to gloss it over. He turned on his tablet and said, “Lu Linlin has come out of the emergency room. She has a broken leg and is behaving erratically and resting in bed. The Lu family hired three nurses to look after her, afraid that she’ll commit suicide.”

Tang Beibei frowned. That was awful!

However, when she thought about Ruan Qi, who almost died, she could not sympathize with Lu Linlin.

“Did something happen?”

Song Zhou glanced at Jiang Jingchen and spoke only after Jiang Jingchen nodded. “This is a grudge between the Song family and the Lu family. Perhaps it’s karma. Lu Linlin ran out of the hospital in a hurry and got into a car accident.”

“Song Hai has disappeared again, and the Song family is looking for him. Song Kai got in touch with Song Yan, and it’s very likely that he will rejoin Song Enterprise.”

Song Zhou deliberately mentioned Song Kai, but he would not say anything nice about him. He was hinting at Tang Beibei.

Song Kai was not the sunny and handsome person he appeared to be. He was not a good person.

Tang Beibei didn’t know much about the fights between wealthy families, but Song Kai had mentioned Lu Linlin’s grudge against the Song family.

She said, “Song Kai is so unlucky to have met such a scary woman. I heard from Lu Linlin that she and Song Kai are married. Sigh.”

“You feel sorry for Song Kai?”

Jiang Jingchen didn’t expect Tang Beibei to not follow their train of thought but feel sorry for Song Kai.

“A little.”

Tang Beibei stared at the ceiling and felt a little emotional. “Song Kai lost his parents at a young age, but he has a sunny and cheerful personality. That’s not easy.”

“He doesn’t have a good life in the Song family. He has been trying his best to prove his worth but was forced to marry Lu Linlin. Isn’t that pitiable?”

“How do you know all this?” Jiang Jingchen asked coldly, suppressing his anger when he heard Tang Beibei speak about another man.

However, the woman didn’t catch his displeasure and continued, “Song Kai told me some things. To be honest, his experience is quite similar to mine, so 1 treat him as a brother in my heart.”

“Brother, huh.”

Tang Beibei could hear Jiang Jingchen’s grinding teeth and looked at him in confusion. She asked softly, “Brother Jing, you don’t seem very happy. Did I say something wrong?”

She called him Brother Jing to please him.

How could Jiang Jingchen be happy to hear her call another man “brother”?

“I’m not unhappy, just surprised. I didn’t expect Song Kai to have a place in your heart.”

His words were filled with jealousy. Even Song Zhou could sense it; he wished he could leave the room.

Tang Beibei then realized that the man was unhappy about her mentioning Song Kai.

“Not really a place in my heart. Just sudden empathy. Brother Jing, we’re together every day. Don’t you know what’s in my heart?”

“What?”

Tang Beibei looked up and kissed his chin. “That I love you, Brother Jing. Why do you favor boys over girls?”

“What do you mean by favoring boys over girls?” After being kissed by the woman, Jiang Jingchen’s anger subsided a little, but his handsome face was still tight.

“When I talk about Qiqi, you don’t even care, but when I talk about other men, you get upset. How is that not favoring boys over girls?”

Jiang Jingchen laughed in amusement and said, “So, ultimately, this is my fault?”

“Nah.” Tang Beibei giggled and snuggled her head against his shoulder. She was acting cute to get over the subject.

She looked at Song Zhou and said, “Song Zhou, when Qiqi’s life was in danger, you clearly cared about her. But you still don’t accept her. You made Qiqi feel really awkward.”

Song Zhou lowered his head. The thought of Ruan Qi not breathing still caused a sharp pain in his heart.

“It’s my fault.”

“What’s your fault?”

“That I didn’t have the courage to accept her.”

Tang Beibei frowned and was about to ask Song Zhou more questions when the man covered her eyes.

“You seem to care about other men. Why don’t you look at your husband, huh?”

Jiang Jingchen turned his head and gave Song Zhou a look. Song Zhou felt a chill down his spine and quickly left.

“How can 1 look if you cover my eyes?” Tang Beibei said aggrievedly.

Jiang Jingchen took his hand away but picked her up and went upstairs.

She was afraid of falling, so she hugged his neck and said aggrievedly, “Hubby, I have to go to dance practice.”

“Yes, let’s practice in bed.”

“In bed? That’s not a place to practice, right?”

She wanted to escape, but she couldn’t. When they were in their bedroom, he closed the door, and she started running around as the man unbuttoned his shirt and said, “Run? We’ll practice wherever you run to. I’ll help you warm up and you can call me Brother Jing.”

Tang Beibei was at a loss for words.

She didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. This man was still jealous.

She wasn’t a bashful person and enjoyed this kind of foreplay. She also liked to please him.

But she was also afraid. Afraid that he was insatiable, afraid of his craziness and aggressiveness, for always making her feel ashamed and angry… But also obsessed..
