Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Tang Beibei returned to the villa and saw that there was no one in the kitchen. Wen Nan had not cooked.

Wen Nan was a doctor, Tang Beibei felt bad letting her cook anyway. She quickly rolled up her sleeves and went to the kitchen to make dinner.

Jiang Jingchen wheeled himself into the kitchen to help. He used to be unfamiliar with everything in the kitchen. Now he could help her. Not only could he wash and cut vegetables, but he also knew how to use many of the kitchen utensils.

After he was done washing the vegetables, he asked for a reward, which was naturally a kiss from her.

Tang Beibei was happy to oblige. She bent down and kissed him on the lips. She even smiled like a kid who had taken a bite of candy, all cute and fluffy. Jiang Jingchen was impatient.

He wanted nothing more than to devour this little rabbit right away.

At this moment, Wen Nan walked in and saw the two of them acting intimate in the kitchen. She was so angry that she was almost on fire.

Just so she didn’t get so angry that she suffered from hormonal imbalance, she quickly turned around and ate some fruits to calm down.

She felt indignant. Such a noble and cold man was willing to enter a smoky and greasy kitchen for a girl. He even helped her with chores.

How did this woman do it?

Tang Beibei worked fast. She cooked three dishes and a soup in half an hour. She was about to call Wen Nan and Song Zhou over for dinner when Jiang Jingchen said, “They’ve already eaten. You don’t need to tend to them. Let’s eat.”

“All, Song Zhou and Dr. Wen, have you eaten?”

Of course, Wen Nan hadn’t eaten but Song Zhou answered for her. “Yes, we ate together just now. Dr. Wen is having after-meal fruits now. Young Madam, enjoy yourselves. If you need anything, just holler.”

Wen Nan was speechless and frowned angrily. She clearly hadn’t had dinner. Why did he say that she had?

Song Zhou gestured for her to speak outside. Wen Nan could only endure her anger and follow him out.

When they were in the courtyard, Song Zhou said after he confirmed that Tang Beibei couldn’t hear them, “Dr. Wen, don’t sit at the table when Young Madam cooks in the future. Young Master doesn’t like others to eat Young Madam’s cooking.”

Wen Nan laughed in frustration. “Why wasn’t he angry when I ate with them before?”

Song Zhou explained, “That was your first time here. As the mistress of this place, Young Madam wanted to entertain you, so Young Master didn’t say anything. The following time, it was because Young Madam was being polite, but there won’t be a third time.”

Wen Nan chuckled in frustration. “But when I cooked, she ate too.”

Song Zhou explained, “It’s not the same thing. You cooked because you wanted to. Of course, Young Master will let Young Madam eat your food. Also, Dr. Wen, maybe you should stay away from the kitchen from now on. That’s where Young Master and Young Madam do their thing.”

Wen Nan suppressed her anger. “What is their thing?”

Song Zhou covered his mouth and laughed. “Flirting. Young Master really likes flirting with Young Madam. He also enjoys her cooking very much.”

Song Zhou looked at Dr. Wen sympathetically and said, “You might not have noticed certain details, but you have to read Young Master’s mood when you live here. Just because he doesn’t say something doesn’t mean he approves.”

“…” Wen Nan chuckled twice helplessly and did not say anything else.

What could she say? She thought that playing the role of a wife in front of Jiang Jingchen would get his attention. But Jiang Jingchen didn’t pay any attention to her and even saw her as an hindrance.

Sigh. The man she had been secretly in love with for years was stabbing a knife in her heart at this moment.

She couldn’t help but ask, “What schemes did Miss Tang employ to make your young master like her so much?”

Song Zhou pondered for a few seconds before he replied, “She’s simple-minded. What schemes could she have? She’s silly, bold and has a unique taste. She can even kiss Young Master when he has his ugly mask on.”

She was incredibly silly and bold with a unique taste…

She was not silly at all to be able to win Jiang Jingchen’s heart!

“Then, why doesn’t your young master reveal his identity earlier and tell her that he’s not a cripple?”

“Well, Young Master said that if he told her, Young Madam would abandon him. I don’t know what Young Master is thinking either. How could a woman abandon him after seeing his enviably handsome face? Dr. Wen, right?”

Of course, Wen Nan wouldn’t abandon him, but Jiang Jingchen didn’t even give her a chance.

She looked through the window at the couple eating together, suppressing her anger.

If Jiang Jingchen had found a better woman than her, she might give up, but why did it have to be a little girl like Tang Beibei?

She wasn’t going to give up just like that!

In the villa, after the two of them finished dinner, Tang Beibei was going to wash the dishes and clean the kitchen, and Jiang Jingchen wanted to follow her in to help.

“Hubby, stay. 1 can manage.”

Jiang Jingchen said, “I should also work after eating. Beibei, you don’t like me getting in your way?”

Seeing his aggrieved expression, Tang Beibei explained quickly, “No, never. Doing these things will dirty your clothes.”

“I’ll change if my clothes get dirty. You can help me change.”

Tang Beibei couldn’t win this argument so she taught him how to wash the dishes. After cleaning up, the two of them left the kitchen together.

Tang Beibei didn’t feel tired with someone working alongside her. She went straight upstairs to study!

Jiang Jingchen followed her. He saw her holding a stack of thick books and found out that she had been given a task to read those books by her teacher.

His heart ached as he patted her head. “This is a serious mission. It will be very tiring.”

Tang Beibei puffed up her cheeks and stared at the thick books she was holding. She was also very worried, but she had promised Professor Chen that she would read them all!

“I’ll do my best. Hubby, you have to supervise me. If I fall asleep from reading, you must wake me up!”

Jiang Jingchen looked at her serious face and smiled, his dark eyes glistening.

“If you want my help, you have to reward me first.”

Tang Beibei pounced on him without hesitation and kissed him. Jiang Jingchen hugged her, reluctant to let her go.

“Hubby, I have to study.”

“Yeah.”

Although Jiang Jingchen agreed, he didn’t let her go. He gently kissed her forehead before letting her go.

Reading professional books could get boring. Tang Beibei was sleepy after reading for just about half an hour. She tried very hard to keep her eyes open, but after a while, sleepiness overcame her again.

“Beibei, wake up. Drink some water.” Jiang Jingchen called out to her.

Tang Beibei stood up quickly and did a few jumping jacks. She thought she was a good student but the books that Professor Chen gave her were difficult to understand.

She scratched her head, drank a glass of water and poured a glass for Jiang Jingchen.

“Is it very difficult?” Jiang Jingchen asked her.

Tang Beibei nodded. “Not too difficult but it’s just that without an autopsy, it’s hard to imagine the human anatomy.”

“Human anatomy?”

Jiang Jingchen pondered and pointed at himself. “Can I be your research subject?”

“Hmm?” Tang Beibei was puzzled.

Jiang Jingchen said, “Aren’t you studying human anatomy? You can study my body.”

“Sure!” Tang Beibei’s eyes lit up. “But hubby, you’ll have to take off your clothes.”

Jiang Jingchen smiled. “We’re husband and wife. Would you mind if 1 took off my clothes in front of you?”

“Of course not. You’re sacrificing yourself for medicine!” Tang Beibei said seriously.

Jiang Jingchen nodded seriously. “Help me take them off then.”

Tang Beibei immediately helped him take off his jacket and shirt. Under the bright lights, his arms looked strong, and his muscles were amazingly well-defined. Also… She couldn’t maintain the serious expression on her face and her cheeks turned red. She wanted to avert her eyes but she just stared straight at him.

This man was a patient. How could he have such a good body?

This didn’t make sense!

“Hubby, you’re a patient. You cough when you’re out in the wind. How are you so toned?”

Jiang Jingchen was caught off guard by her question.. Did he just shoot himself in the foot?
