Jiang Jingchen put down his phone and thought about the Song family as he strolled the hospital grounds before he went back to Tang Beibei’s ward.

“Obedient Beibei, I have a gift for you.”

“What kind of gift?”

Tang Beibei was curious as she looked at him with sparkling eyes.

“Take a guess.”

Tang Beibei guessed, “Is it a snowman? Or some kind of delicious food?”

Jiang Jingchen thought that his wife was such a pragmatic girl. She was either studying or thinking about food.

He took out a plum blossom from his coat and gave it to Tang Beibei. Tang Beibei looked at him in surprise. “Hubby, when did you become a flower thief? It’s not good to pick flowers from the hospital grounds.”

Jiang Jingchen laughed in frustration. He was trying to be romantic and she lectured him instead.

“I asked the doctor if a plum blossom would cheer my wife up since in traditional Chinese medicine, maintaining a good mood have positive effects on healing. The doctor agreed, so I didn’t really steal.”

Jiang Jingchen put the flower to her nose.

“Sniff it, does it smell good?”

Tang Beibei took a serious sniff; there was indeed a faint fragrance. The blossom smelled naturally sweet, with a hint of fresh snow.

“It smells nice.”

Jiang Jingchen dropped the plum blossom from her nose and lowered his head to kiss her. “The beauty who just smelled fresh flowers also tastes so good.”

Tang Beibei laughed in amusement, but laughing made her wounds hurt. She quickly pursed her lips to hold back her laughter.

Hubby, you always have a reason to kiss me. How do you come up with so many excuses?”

Jiang Jingchen pointed at his head. “You are in here all the time. My brain is no longer under my control. It just comes up with all sorts of reasons for me to get close to you so it could be happy.”

He then gently kissed her wound.

“Does it still hurt?”

“Yes, a little.”

Whenever she felt sad or in pain, she always told him that it was just a little.

Jiang Jingchen held her hands. Perhaps they had been out of her blanket for some time, they felt cold.

He unwrapped two heat packs and stuffed them into her hands. “Tell me if you feel uncomfortable anywhere else.”

Tang Beibei blushed in embarrassment.

Jiang Jingchen saw her expression and asked, “Should I get Ruan Qi here?”

“Yes, please!”

Jiang Jingchen knew that she was shy. Every time she wanted to go to the bathroom, she would ask Ruan Qi to help her, never him.

Jiang Jingchen didn’t make things difficult for her. He went to Song Zhou’s ward to get Ruan Qi and take over her patient care duties for Song Zhou.

Song Zhou was flattered to be cared for by Jiang Jingchen.

“Young Master, please don’t. I’ll ask the doctor to help me later.”

Jiang Jingchen lectured him in disdain, “The doctors are busy too. Why trouble them when I’m here?”

“It seems that karma is real. Back when I got into a car accident, you took care of me. Let me take care of you now to pay my debt.”

When Jiang Jingchen’s car accident happened years ago, he didn’t trust the Jiang family and hired a butler to take care of him.

He still remembered the first time he met Song Zhou. He was very thin and small. They were both seventeen then but Song Zhou looked like he was forty five.

He might have been small then, but he was strong.

Song Zhou had worked for Jiang Jingchen since and had grown into a man of

1.8 meters.

Song Zhou pursed his lips and said sincerely, “Thank you, Young Master.”

“You know that your young master doesn’t care for such mushy talk. It’s good enough for me that you feel it in your heart.”

Yes.”

Song Zhou would always remember his young master’s kindness, so he also treated his young master as his family.

“Stop this nonsense and get well soon. I’m still waiting for you to serve me.”

Caring for people wasn’t Jiang Jingchen’s strong suit and some of his movements were clumsy, but if it was something he wanted to do, he would learn it.

When Ruan Qi returned, he would go back and take care of his wife. He would use all sorts of mushy language with his wife to make her happy. Words didn’t cost money anyway. Even if they did, he could afford it.

After resting for a few days, Tang Beibei could move her arm. She stretched it slightly, but it still hurt.

Her doctor came to check on her and said that she was recovering well because she was in good shape. However, her injuries would need more time to heal and she shouldn’t attempt large movements in the near future.

Tang Beibei obediently followed the doctor’s instructions. She sat on the bed and started her revisions.

There were only a few days left until their final exams. She had promised Professor Chen that she would do her best.

When Ruan Qi heard Tang Beibei say that she still wanted to prepare for the final exams, she scolded Tang Beibei for being out of her mind.

She was already so seriously injured, yet she wanted to take the final exams.

She was simply torturing her body and her mind.

Tang Beibei shook her head innocently. “But I don’t feel tortured. If I do well in the exams, I’ll get my scholarship. Besides, I promised Professor Chen that I won’t embarrass him by doing badly.”

Ruan Qi did not want to study. She just wanted to be a slacker.

However, after hanging around a top student all day, she felt obliged to study.

Ruan Qi wanted to sleep after studying for just a short time. Song Zhou said that he would be her supervisor and watch her study.

Ruan Qi was embarrassed to be watched like that so she obediently continued with her revisions.

When Fu Jin heard about their car accident, he came to the hospital to visit Tang Beibei and Song Zhou. When he saw Tang Beibei studying in bed, he asked Jiang Jingchen in a reproachful tone why Tang Beibei was injured again.

Tang Beibei quickly explained that it was an accident; they had been set up and her husband couldn’t be blamed for what happened.

Seeing that she was defending Jiang Jingchen, Fu Jin didn’t argue with her. He called Jiang Jingchen out of the ward and began to interrogate him about what happened.

Jiang Jingchen briefly explained the matter and handed Fu Jin a few photos.

You have your network. Help me investigate these men.”

Fu Jin didn’t take the photos from him. “Why should I help you?”

“One of the men here almost pierced my wife’s heart with a bullet. Are you going to help or not?”

Fu Jin took the photos with a frown. “If you can’t even find out who these people are, what makes you think that I can?”

It doesn’t matter what 1 think. Since I haven’t found any evidence that leads me to the mastermind, I’m willing to try anything.” Jiang Jingchen said frankly.

Fu Jin replied in disdain, “The in-fighting within the Jiang family is really violent. This kind of thing keeps happening. But comparing this to Jiang Minglang’s modus operand! last time, this incident doesn’t seem like his doing.”

Fu Jin knew that Jiang Jingchen had been attacked by Jiang Minglang’s people last time. Jiang Jingchen gave him a look.

Fu Jin didn’t avoid his gaze. “I have sent people to keep an eye on you before. I wanted to see if you were truly good to her.”

“But I’ve called my men off. If my men were still watching you, you might have been able to avoid this attack.”

Jiang Jingchen thought that his wife must be really likable. Fu Jin was only 20 years old, but he was already capable enough to send someone to follow them without Ji Yi’s men finding out.

To be able to hide from Ji Yi’s sight required exceptional skills.

“I’ve troubled you.

Fu Jin heard the sarcasm in his tone and snorted coldly.

“It was negligence on my part when Tang Beibei married you. I didn’t expect the Rong family to plot against me. I admit that I’ve lost and will not make things difficult for her.”

Tang Beibei always seemed nice and cute, but those who knew her could tell that she was a stubborn person.

Once she had made up her mind about something, she would not change it even if she died.

Fu Jin didn’t enjoy torturing others, so he restrained himself and gave her sufficient space so she wouldn’t feel annoyed, and they could still be friends.

“Then should I be grateful for Mr. Fu Jin’s graciousness?”

Jiang Jingchen’s teasing words carried a hint of sarcasm as if Fu Jin could snatch Tang Beibei away from him by force.

When Fu Jin confessed to his wife back then, he didn’t get her to like him. Did he think that he would get Tang Beibei’s affection by silently watching and protecting her?

Fu Jin had really overestimated his wife’s EQ.!

Fu Jin was so angry that he didn’t want to talk to Jiang Jingchen anymore. He just took the photos and left.

Jiang Jingchen watched Fu Jin get into the elevator before he turned to go back to Tang Beibei’s ward. He caught someone looking at him sneakily and the corners of his mouth curled into a cold smile.

He just let the other party watch him and even coughed a few times to get his attention before he headed to Song Zhou’s ward. When he was there, he asked Ruan Qi to put on an act.

Ruan Qi didn’t even need a script when asked to put on an act. She simply burst into tears and ran out to call a doctor to check on Song Zhou like he was about to die.

P.S. from the author Ming Zhi: “Young Master Jiang, do you not think highly of your wife’s EQ?”

Jiang Jingchen replied, “Why? Do you have a problem with that?”

Ming Zhi answered, “I don’t have any problem, but I wonder what Tang Beibei thinks about this.”

Tang Beibei asked, “What is EQ?”

Ming Zhi was speechless.

P.P.S from the author Ming Zhi: Emotional intelligence or EQis something nurtured from a young age. Children raised in good families tend to have higher EQ. Tang Beibei grew up in a hostile environment. It’s already a blessing that she didn’t become an extremist so it would be unrealistic to expect her to have high EQ.

Tang Beibei is merely emotionally blunt. It’s a protection mechanism that prevents her from getting hurt.

The good news is that EQ.can be cultivated. Jiang Jingchen has encouraged and given her confidence. He has helped her build a more complete understanding of herself and of the world.

Please don’t mind the suddenly serious tone. As usual, please leave me a message if you’d like more chapters to come online soon. Ming Zhi is interested to know what everyone thinks..
