Tang Beibei did not avoid Jiang Jingchen’s kiss. She smiled and said to him,

“The sun is out today. Let’s go to the garden downstairs for a stroll.”

Jiang Jingchen couldn’t bear to let her go. He kissed her for a while more before letting her get up from his lap. They then went downstairs for breakfast.

When Tang Beibei arrived at the first floor, she saw that it had been thoroughly cleaned. She pushed Jiang Jingchen in his wheelchair to the dining table and exclaimed, “Where’s Mr. Lu?”

Song Zhou choked. Lu Chen was afraid that Jiang Jingchen would teach him a lesson today, so he ran away last night.

Jiang Jingchen replied, “He left because he had something to do. He told us not to stand on ceremony and to stay here for a few more days.”

“That’s not very good, right?”

After all, this was Mr. Lu’s villa. Moreover, Jiang Jingchen had told her that he wasn’t close to Mr. Lu.

Song Zhou tried to convince her. “There’s nothing wrong with that. Mr. Lu has already given me rhe keys. It’s fine for us to stay here for a few more days.”

“Alright then.”

Since Mr. Lu had already invited them to stay, Tang Beibei would not stand on ceremony. After breakfast, they went for a stroll in the garden. In the afternoon, rhe two of them had tea in the garden. It was simply too relaxing.

In the evening, Jiang Jingchen and Song Zhou went out for a business meeting. John’s son saw the photos they took with his parents and wanted to talk about business.

After they talked and signed the contract, Jiang Jingchen got into the car and passed the documents to Song Zhou to deal with the follow-up work.

Song Zhou said as he took the documents, “We stole Jiang Minglang’s client. He’ll be very upset.”

They had put in a lot of effort to seal this deal. Making a profit was one thing, but more importantly, they managed to steal one of Jiang Medical’s most important customers.

Since Jiang Jingchen’s fallout with his father, he had begun to plan and execute his confrontation with the Jiang family.

Jiang Jingchen sneered, “This is just the beginning. 1 don’t want anything from the Jiang family, and I won’t let those people get what 1 don’t want!”

Back at Lu Chen’s villa, Jiang Jingchen sat in his wheelchair again. Tang Beibei looked behind him curiously.

“Eh, didn’t your masked bodyguard go with you?”

At the mention of the bodyguard, Song Zhou looked at Jiang Jingchen. He wanted to see how his young master would wriggle his way out of it!

Jiang Jingchen coughed lightly and lied through his teeth. “I’ve scolded him for being rude to you last time and put him on a different job. It’s a lesson for him. If he dares to scold to my wife again, I’ll fire him!¹‘

“Yes, you should discipline him!”

Tang Beibei then looked away and prepared to wash up and go to bed with him.

Seeing that she seemed to have dropped the bodyguard matter, Jiang Jingchen and Song Zhou looked at each other and heaved a sigh of relief.

One lie needed a hundred lies as cover-up. It was still some time before Jiang Jingchen could break his disguise.

The next day, Song Zhou said that Tang Beibei’s wallet and ID card had been found, and they could return to China.

Tang Beibei reclaimed her bag and found her wallet. Although the money had been taken, her ID card was still there. She was so happy that she wanted to cry.

Losing one’s identity card overseas was a very troublesome matter.

“Book tickets to go back this afternoon.” Jiang Jingchen ordered.

“Yes.”

When Song Zhou was booking their tickets, he was still thinking about the fact that his young madam had been tricked to come to M-Country. That person would be dealt with when they returned to China.

When they arrived home, Tang Beibei pushed Jiang Jingchen into the villa and said hi to Wen Nan.

Wen Nan, who was about to go out to welcome Jiang Jingchen, saw Tang Beibei standing behind him and her face fell.

Why was she back?

And she came back with Jiang Jingchen!

“Hello, Dr. Wen.” Tang Beibei said.

Wen Nan quickly collected herself and nodded with a smile. “You must be tired. I’ll get you some water.”

“Forget about the water. I have something to ask you, Dr. Wen.” Jiang Jingchen said.

“What is it?” Although Wen Nan felt guilty, she didn’t show it and revealed a gentle smile, her eyes showing no emotion.

Jiang Jingchen questioned Wen Nan. “You told Beibei that I’m in M-Country?”

“Ah, that’s what I said. It was just my guess. Did something happen, Mr. Chen?” Wen Nan looked at him innocently.

Jiang Jingchen shook his head indifferently and didn’t ask more questions. Instead, he wheeled himself to the coffee table, poured a glass of water, and handed it to Tang Beibei.

Tang Beibei took the glass and thanked him with a smile. She drank her water before pouring Jiang Jingchen a glass.

Wen Nan watched the two of them poured water for each other and gritted her teeth. They seemed to be closer than before.

She had arranged for a man to snatch Tang Beibei’s wallet and ID card and let her fend for herself in M-Country. How did Jiang Jingchen find her?

Jiang Jingchen put down his glass and said to Tang Beibei, “Go upstairs and rest. Song Zhou will prepare lunch.”

” Song Zhou will prepare lunch?”

We have a part-time chef who used to cook for us. She will make lunch for us. Didn’t you want to read?”

“Oh, yes. I need to finish reading the books.”

Tang Beibei’s scalp tingled when she thought about the books that Professor Chen had asked her to read. She went upstairs quickly.

After Tang Beibei went upstairs, Jiang Jingchen turned to Wen Nan and said, “Dr. Wen, did you deliberately mislead my wife to go to M-Country, or was there some other reason?”

Wen Nan’s face turned pale as she explained aggrievedly, “Mr. Chen, 1 don’t understand what you mean.”

“When you suddenly left that day, Beibei kept asking me where you were. 1 couldn’t contact you at that time, so I just made up a random excuse for you. I didn’t expect her to go to M-Country. If Beibei got hurt because of my mistake, 1 apologize.”

Seeing that he did not believe her, Wen Nan lowered her head sadly and added, “Beibei is your wife. I have a favor to ask of you. How could 1 possibly harm her? 1 don’t know what Beibei said, but I really didn’t mean to harm anyone.”

“Is that so?”

“Yes, Mr. Chen. I still need your help to get the shares of Wen Corporation.” Wen Nan said.

Jiang Jingchen stared at her. His gaze was too sharp and sent a chill down Wen Nan’s spine. She clenched her fists in panic and controlled her emotions.

Just when she couldn’t take it anymore, Jiang Jingchen suddenly said, “I’ll consider it a mishap this time. 1 don’t want another accident like this to hurt my wife, Dr. Wen.”

“There won’t be a next time, Mr. Chen.’¹ Wen Nan let out a long breath with lingering fear.

Jiang Jingchen turned his wheelchair to go upstairs. Song Zhou ordered the part-time cook to come over and quickly went up to push Jiang Jingchen’s wheelchair.

When they arrived at the master bedroom on the second floor, Song Zhou asked curiously, “Young Master, there’s something fishy about this. 1 still think that there’s something strange about Dr. Wen.¹‘

Jiang Jingchen sneered. “There is indeed something strange. Although I’ve received treatment in M-Country, 1 will never go to there for treatment again. Wen Nan is not stupid. She won’t make such a low-level mistake. Only she knows wha t she’s planning.”

Song Zhou frowned. “Then it means that Wen Nan is a hidden danger, and we can’t keep her.”

Jiang Jingchen smirked. “She is a hidden danger but she knows my secret. We need to find the right time to let her go.”

“When is the right time?”

“When the secret is no longer a secret.”

The next day, when Tang Beibei went to class, Kuan Qi quickly asked her if she had any fortuitous encounter in M“Country.

Ruan Qi broke out in a cold sweat when Tang Beibei told her about her experience. She hugged Tang Beibei and said thankfully that Tang Beibei had returned safely.

After class, the two of them went to the school cafeteria for lunch. They even talked about Lu Fan. Ruan Qi could not help but sigh. There were so many beautiful women overseas. When the school hunk came home, he might already be taken and not belong to lovestruck girls like her. What a shame.

Tang Beibei couldn’t help but laugh. “It’s so meaningless to feed yourself with good looks of handsome men. Why don’t you read a few more books? Didn’t they say that one could uncover hidden gems in the text?”

Ruan Qi almost vomited when she heard about reading more. Every time there was a test, it was time for a slacker like her to mug her way through.

After lunch, they were on their way to the library when they bumped into Rong Chan’er and Lu Linlin.

Lu Linlin rolled her eyes at Tang Beibei before she walked away unhappily.

Rong Chan’er looked at Tang Beibei mockingly as she walked past her. She also said in a low voice, “Tang Beibei, I don’t think you have seen your grandmother recently, right? I wonder if your skinny grandmother is dead. You must keep an eye on her. Don’t wait for her body to rot before you go and collect her corpse!”

“You!”

Rong Chan’er provoked Tang Beibei and quickly caught up with Lu Linlin, reverting to her gentle and ladylike appearance..
