Tang Beibei watched Auntie Lin leave and said to Jiang Jingchen, “We were just talking about finding a chef and then I met a chef. Hubby, 1 must be in luck!” Jiang Jingchen asked, “Since Beibei is in luck, what else would you like to do?”

Tang Beibei squatted next to his wheelchair, looked at his legs, and suddenly blew on his knees.

“Hubby, if I’m really in luck, I’ll give all my luck to you. 1 hope your legs will recover soon and you’ll walk with me when we go for strolls.”

Jiang Jingchen was slightly tempted as he grabbed the woman’s soft hand. He wanted to kiss her again.

But he said, “Beibei, I would like to kiss you again but I’ll save it for tonight.”

Tang Beibei laughed and kissed him on the lips.

“Then I’ll give you one first.”

Jiang Jingchen’s lips curled up. The kiss he wanted was different from the kisses she had in mind.

“Other than my legs, what else would you like to do, little cutie?”

Tang Beibei tilted her head and thought seriously for a few seconds. “The best luck for me would be having food to eat when I’m hungry, being able to lie down when I’m sleepy, doing well in my exams, eating without gaining weight, and joining a professional dance company for a living in future.”

Jiang Jingchen chuckled and rubbed her head. “What else?”

Tang Beibei tilted her head and sighed. “Everything I said is already very difficult. But I do have a nagging question in my heart. I would really like to know what my mother was like.”

Jiang Jingchen thought to himself that everything she said – eating well, drinking well, sleeping well and doing well in her studies, even dance for a living – he could help her.

“I’ll get someone to find out about your mother. You’re so adorable, so I’m sure your mother is a good person.” Jiang Jingchen comforted her.

Tang Beibei looked at him in surprise. “Why do you say that?”

“Genetics, silly Beibei. Rong Yong looks ordinary, and you don’t look anything like him. Your mother must be extremely beautiful.”

His words made her happier than a compliment. Tang Beibei touched her face and asked him softly, “Am I really beautiful?”

Jiang Jingchen looked at her silly expression, as if she was afraid that her little secret had been found out and she was embarrassed.

He reached out and scratched her chin, as if he was petting a cat. The girl did not dodge and even revealed a silly smile.

He pulled her onto his lap and kissed her forehead, nose, and chin.

“Beibei’s tiny face isn’t just beautiful, it’s also adorable. I like every part of it, and I want to kiss it all the time.”

Compliments were rare in Tang Beibei’s previous life. Insults and belittling words had corroded her brain like a curse.

The man’s compliment made her heart feel sweeter than honey to her mouth and made her shy.

Some people were calm and collected when faced with criticisms but extremely uncomfortable when faced with compliments. Tang Beibei was such a person.

The two of them walked once around the park and returned to the villa. Tang Beibei practiced dance for an hour and then studied. After washing up, she lay on the bed and felt that her day was especially fulfilling.

“Beibei, have you forgotten something?” Suddenly, the man beside her reminded her.

“What is it?”

The man propped himself up with his arms and raised an eyebrow at her. “Think harder.”

Tang Beibei sat up and thought seriously. She was afraid that she had missed something important again and started counting with her fingers.

She was afraid that she hadn’t finished her homework and wanted to go through her bag. Jiang Jingchen laughed in amusement and pulled her back into bed.

“It’s not your homework. It’s what you promised me. How are you going to repay me all the kisses we have saved throughout the day?”

“Oh?” Tang Beibei stared at him blankly. Her cheeks were a red from shyness but she did not try to get out of it. She licked her lips and whispered, “Here you go.”

She raised her head to kiss him, and Jiang Jingchen grabbed the back of her neck and took over.

Bankruptcy of the Rong family was a foregone conclusion.

Rong Yong shared the miserable news with He Li and their daughters. The three of them were so angry that they wanted to kill him. Rong Mei’er was furious. She was hospitalized now, and her medical expenses were substantial. She also needed money for plastic surgery in the later stages of her recovery, which was another huge expense.

She started crying when she thought about all this, and her tears made her wounds hurt. She scolded Rong Yong for being a good-for-nothing who was stupid enough to be tricked by a woman.

Because he had a mistress outside, he didn’t only betray them but also caused them to lose everything.

Rong Yong said angrily, “Someone must really want to ruin me from behind and scenes and taught that woman to lie to me. Otherwise, that woman wouldn’t have the guts to do such a thing.”

He wanted to push all the blame onto someone else.

However, He Li and her daughters did not believe him at all. They accused each other and quarreled unhappily until they ran out of gas.

Rong Chan’er calmed down rather quickly and called Jiang Minglang to ask who might be plotting against the Rong family.

Jiang Minglang didn’t expect the Rong family to suddenly declare bankruptcy. He had also asked people to investigate the matter but found nothing. Clearly, the mastermind was very well hidden.

“Could it be that b*tch Lu Linlin?” Rong Chan’er asked.

Jiang Minglang didn’t answer but asked coldly, “How’s the matter with Jiang Jingchen?”

“I messed up. My sister has been attacked with concentrated sulfuric acid, and that bastard Jiang Jingchen despised her and didn’t want her anymore. Young Master Minglang, please help me find out who hurt my sister.”

Rong Chan’er wouldn’t dare to tell Jiang Minglang that she was the one who messed up the marriage by trying to take her sister’s place.

The woman who harmed Rong Mei’er seemed to have appeared out of thin air and then disappeared into thin air. There was no trace of her at all.

“You must have offended someone you shouldn’t have offended, that’s why you were hurt like this. Think carefully, who have you offended?”

Rong Chan’er thought long and hard and figured that the suspects were either Jiang Jingchen or Tang Beibei.

Jiang Minglang chuckled. “Jiang Jingchen is just a useless cripple. Tang Beibei is just a student. How could she hurt you like this? If she had that kind of power, she wouldn’t have been forced to marry that cripple!”

Jiang Minglang was a little angry when he thought about how such a beautiful flower would be destroyed by Jiang Jingchen.

Rong Chan’er also felt that what he said made sense, but who else would want to hurt them?

Her sister has been disfigured and the Rong family has gone bankrupt. How would they live the rest of their lives?

“Young Master Minglang, can, can you help Rong Corporation then?”

“You’ve already declared bankruptcy and the company is going through legal procedures now. I can’t help you even if I have the power to do so. You’d better take care of yourself. Don’t contact me if there’s nothing else in future.”

To Jiang Minglang, Rong Chan’er was just an insignificant chess piece that he played just to disgust Jiang Jingchen. He wouldn’t even blink if he lost her.

Rong Chan’er heard the beeping sound and knew that she was no longer of any use to Jiang Minglang. She no longer had any excuse to get close to him, and her heart was filled with despair.

No, no, she had not taken revenge yet. She couldn’t give up now!

Thinking of the pain Song Hai and Lu Linlin had caused her, she felt even more resentful. Even if she had to die, she would drag them down with her!

She dialed a number and smiled..
