Tang Beibei answered Ruan Qi with a smile as she buttoned up her coat, “What’s there to be curious about? A 110,000 yuan dress definitely won’t sell. My husband’s butler has many connections. He has friends in the retail business so he managed to buy this coat.”

Based on Tang Beibei’s attitude toward money, 110,000 yuan for a piece of clothing was more than an average person¹ s annual income. Who would buy such expensive clothes?

Anyway, her husband and Song Zhou would never buy it!

Ruan Qi almost believed her.

However, the reality was that TK was a niche fashion brand among luxury goods. They focused on branding and quality and would never mass produce their clothes. Therefore, there was only one piece for each design. Because there was no risk of bumping into someone with the same clothes, TK had become the mark for upper-class socialites. Their clothes were invaluable.

For Tang Beibei to be able to get this coat, her husband wasn’t only rich but also very well connected.

“Beibei, do you think your husband spent all his money buying these things for you?’¹

“What?”

Tang Beibei was nervous at the mention of money.

“These clothes aren’t cheap. Your husband is sick and can’t work. He doesn’t have any income and pays his assistant only 10,000 yuan. Now that the Jiang family has cut him off financially, his life won’t be peachy going forward. That being the case, your husband treats you really well.”

Tang Beibei was even more touched after hearing Ruan Qi’s analysis. She would kiss him more to thank him when she got home.

“I told you. Although my husband is disabled, he treats me very well.”

Most of the onlookers had dispersed, and those who were curious came up to interview Tang Beibei.

“Tang Beibei, I heard that you’re married to a rich second-generation heir. It’s really true, yeah?”

“Yeah, Tang Beibei. Wasn’t it rumored that you and Lu Fan were a couple? How are you suddenly married to someone else?”

“Someone said that your husband is very old and is in a wheelchair. Is it true?”

Tang Beibei frowned speechlessly. She didn’t like people talking about her husband in a disdainful tone.

“Lu Fan and I are not a couple. Don’t speculate wildly. My husband is very well and he’s not old. 1 have to go to class. Sorry I can’t talk anymore.”

Tang Beibei avoided them and went to the classroom. Many of the girls sneered in their hearts.

She didn’t answer their questions directly. It must be because her husband was an old and disabled second-generation heir, who married her because he couldn’t find a wife.

Tang Beibei shouldn’t show off in front of them just because she wore branded clothes.

They would never be envious of her!

As soon as Tang Beibei sat down, she took out her phone and sent a message to her husband, telling him that the clothes he bought were very good and that she was very comfortable in them.

Her husband replied immediately, “If you like your outfit, I’ll buy you more.”

“No need. I already have a lot. 1 don’t need too many clothes. Having enough is good enough.”

“There isn’t enough. You have autumn clothes, but you will need winter clothes. Beibei, I’ll ask Song Zhou to keep an eye out for you. if there are any discounted clothes, I’ll buy them for you. The price will definitely be cheaper than market price.” The man persuaded her patiently.

Tang Beibei thought what he said made sense. She did not have many winter clothes.

“As you wish, hubby. You have to work hard for your rehabilitation training today!”

She encouraged him.

At this moment, the man sitting in the study did not wear his human skin mask. His face was handsome, his features cold like a banished immortal that had been carved out of stone. His eyes were lowered as he looked at his phone. A hint of smile flashed across his black eyes, making his handsome face appear friendlier.

Her kisses and hugs, and they lovey-dovey conversations were his rehabilitation training every day. They made his body burn with restlessness. He wanted to eat her up and melt her into his bones and blood.

“Training is tiring. I need your kisses to have the strength to work hard.”

“I’ll kiss you when I get back. My class is starting soon. Talk later. Bye-bye! ”

After the bye-bye, she sent him a sticker of two cartoon characters hugging and kissing each other. He could not help but smile again.

When Song Zhou saw the young master smile, he didn’t need to look to guess correctly that he was chatting with Tang Beibei.

Only Tang Beibei could make the young master reveal such harmless expressions.

Song Zhou patiently waited for Jiang Jingchen to put down his phone before he said, “Young Master, Lu Fan has been grounded by Old Master Lu. He probably won’t be going to school for a while. I’ll also remind them to send Lu Fan overseas.”

Jiang Jingchen chuckled. “If Old Master Lu doesn’t do anything, I’ll render Lu Fan s arms useless for hugging another person’s wife. The Lu family should well be able to afford to keep a cripple alive.”

“…” Song Zhou lowered his head and did not dare to speak,

“How’s the situation on the Jiang family’s side?”

Song Zhou answered quickly, “Old Master Jiang didn’t do anything after the butler went home, but 1 guess he’ll still make things difficult for Young Madam.”

“As for Jiang Minglang, he’s been busy with work but his cousin, Song Kai, who looks harmless on the surface, isn’t what he seems.”

Song Zhou had worked for Jiang Jingchen for years and had a good understanding of the Jiang family.

“Keep an eye on the Jiang family. As for that Song something?”

“Song Kai,” Song Zhou supplemented.

“Song whatever isn’t important. Anyone who dares to touch my wife will have their hands rendered useless!”

He couldn’t even be bothered to remember the names of the men hanging around his wife.

“Yes, I’ll remember that.” Song Zhou nodded quickly.

Jiang Jingchen stared at his phone. “1 miss my wife. What should 1 do?”

in Song Zhou’s heart, he grumbled that the young master had only been apart from his wife for less than two hours. Wouldn’t they be sick of each other if they were stuck together every day?

Of course, he didn’t dare to share his thoughts. He could only grumble silently in his heart.

“Why don’t 1 get someone to take photos of Young Madam?”

“Okay, go.”

Song Zhou’s mouth twitched. Only the young master would do such a thing. He was not even doing his job properly and was only thinking about his woman.

Sigh, falling in love was a distraction!

In the classroom, Tang Beibei put down her phone and prepared for class.

Ruan Qi asked, “Were you texting your husband?”

“Yes!” Tang Beibei smiled shyly.

Ruan Qi sighed. Tang Beibei was a woman in love…

“Beibei, I really admire you. For being in a plutonic relationship with a man who looks so, so special. Tsk, even scientists say that a lot of love is made. You’re going against science.”

“Love can be made? What do you mean?” l ang Beibei looked at her curiously.

Ruan Qi’s scalp went numb from her stare. “You’re already married. Yet you don’t know this?”

Tang Beibei was helpless. “My husband is in a wheelchair. He can’t do that. Of course, 1 won t know. But 1 found out that there’s scientific proof that kissing has many positive effects. 1 want to treat my husband’s illness so I must kiss him more.”

Ruan Qi facepalmed herself. “Stop, stop. I don’t want to listen to your lovey-dovey. It makes me remember your husband’s face. Tsk.”

Ruan Qi was incoherent. It seemed that her husband’s face had really traumatized her.

Tang Beibei was resistant. “My husband’s scarred face is indeed unattractive, but his scarless face is very handsome. You just don’t know how to appreciate it!”

“Yes, yes. To each his own. It’s my fault for not being able to appreciate it.”

Ruan Qi quickly comforted her before she added, “Your husband has been doing rehabilitation training lately. Don’t just focus on his legs. He should be recovering there too, right?”

“There where?”

“… Down there, where it’s different from a woman. Where do you think there is?” Ruan Qi asked.

Tang Beibei blushed immediately. Her husband said that he wanted to have a baby with her. He should be recovering soon there, right?

“Since you know now, you have to put in more effort. This is related to your future happiness. Oh, 1 heard that there’s a class on acupoint massage. You should sign up.”

“Yes, yes. I’m planning to attend that class.” Tang Beibei had been asking around.

Behind the two of them, a woman’s had been recording Tang Beibei with her cell phone, so her conversation with Ruan Qi was already heard by Jiang Jingchen on the other end of the video call.

The man lowered his head and looked at the place where he was different from a woman. He thought about her small hands. What would it feel like if she massaged him?

Yes, he looked forward to his wife learning new skills to improve her happiness..
