Jiang Jingchen laughed in anger when he heard Mi Qing’s sarcasm.
He couldn’t believe that he would meet someone unrelated to him in this lifetime that made him want to use swear words.
But he was well-mannered and did not curse out loud in the end. He hung up the phone.
At the hotel, when Song Zhou heard Mi Qing’s words, he shouted angrily at her and snatched his phone back.
“Mi Qing!”
“How can you speak to Young Master like that!”
“I was just telling the truth.”
Mi Qing felt wronged and cried even louder before she said righteously, “I did it for your own good. I wanted you to rest. It’s not safe for you to drive home so late at night.”
Song Zhou lost his patience. “Have a good rest. I’ll visit you again tomorrow.
I’m going home now.”
“Brother Song Zhou, don’t you care about me anymore? I’m all alone here and I’m scared.”
Song Zhou clutched his heart. Someone was waiting for him at home too, or Jiang Jingchen wouldn’t rush him to go home in the middle of the night.
“If you’re scared, sleep with the lights on. I’m leaving now. Call me if you need anything.”
Song Zhou didn’t wait for her to speak and closed the door behind him.
He quickened his pace and ran downstairs. He got into the car and started driving.
The streets were empty before dawn.
But his heart was filled with joy when he thought about the person waiting for him at home.
When he arrived at the villa, he quickly ran into the living room. As expected, he saw the woman nodding off on the sofa. He quickened his pace and hugged her tenderly.
“I’m sorry to have kept you waiting.”
Ruan Qi was wide awake after being hugged and patted his arm.
“Why are you only home now? I’m so sleepy.”
Song Zhou looked at her sleepy face and kissed her eyes.
“It’s all my fault.”
Ruan Qi suddenly pushed him away as she sniffed at him. “You have the scent of another woman’s perfume on you. Don’t hug me. Go take a shower.”
Song Zhou took a sniff at himself. He did have some traces of Mi Qing on him.
Ruan Qi had something to say. “How can a woman who’s hurting emotionally still be in the mood to dress up? She even put on such a strong perfume. She’s obviously playing you.”
Song Zhou sighed helplessly. “Mi Qing is always like this. She always likes to make trouble.”
Ruan Qi’s heart sank when she heard that. She turned around and left. Song Zhou did not know what he had done wrong and hurriedly chased after her to explain.
Tang Beibei was relieved to see Song Zhou back. She went upstairs with Jiang Jingchen to rest.
Tang Beibei sighed in bed and Jiang Jingchen pulled her into his arms.
“Are you sighing because of Ruan Qi?”
“Yes, I feel that Mi Qing is very important in Song Zhou’s heart. If she decides to play dirty, Ruan Qj is no match for her.”
Jiang Jingchen thought hard and patted her shoulder. “If Mi Qing wants Song Zhou, she’ll need to get past me. If I don’t let her through, she can forget about the whole thing.”
Tang Beibei stared at him for a while before she said, “Hubby, do you think it was right for us to bring the two of them together?”
Jiang Jingchen chuckled. “Silly Beibei, there’s no right or wrong in love.”
“Ruan Qi and Song Zhou are in love. Song Zhou is willing to place Ruan Qi before himself and won’t leave her.”
Tang Beibei frowned. “Hubby, I don’t know why, but my eyelids keep twitching and I have this sinking feeling in my stomach that something bad is about to happen.”
Jiang Jingchen helplessly lifted Tang Beibei’s chin and kissed her comfortingly.
“My Obedient Beibei, you are studying medicine, not mythology. Why are you having a premonition in the middle of the night?”
Tang Beibei thought that perhaps she had been overthinking and that was why she had this fear.
Song Zhou was an adult. It was impossible for him to not know who he liked. Besides, he was genuinely good to Ruan Qi and would not hurt her.
On Sunday, Tang Beibei and Ruan Qi began to rehearse their dance. When they went downstairs for lunch, they didn’t see Song Zhou. They called him and Song Zhou said that he was having lunch with Mi Qing.
Ruan Qi did not say more and hung up.
That night, Song Zhou came home late again. Ruan Qi lay in bed with her back facing him, feeling a little angry.
Song Zhou knew that he was in the wrong. He was very apologetic and coaxed her softly.
Ruan Qi said, “I don’t like you running back and forth between us. I’ll go home tomorrow. It’s your business where you spend your nights.”
“Ruan Qi, this is Mi Qing’s first time in capital city. I brought her around and didn’t spend time with you. I’m very sorry. I…”
“I don’t want your apology. Don’t you think that apologies are annoying?”
Annoyed, Ruan Qi sat up and explained the matter to him.
“I’m not in a relationship with you to hear you apologize. I’m not blaming you for bringing Mi Qing around.”
“I just feel that… You told me that she had a boyfriend and that the two of you will cancel the engagement.”
“But now that she’s broken up with her boyfriend, she keeps saying that she’s your fiancee, and we’re sleeping in the same bed. I just feel uncomfortable.”
Song Zhou looked at her under the faint moonlight from outside the window and hung his head in silence.
“Why aren’t you saying anything?”
Only then did Song Zhou speak. “You’re right. I’m the one who put you in such an awkward situation. I feel terrible.”
Ruan Qi lay down, snuggled into his arms and hugged him tightly.
“Don’t feel sad. I’m still yours. I just hope that you can resolve this matter properly.”
“Beibei always told me not to be too pessimistic. It doesn’t matter what happened. What matters is how we move forward. I believe in you.”
Song Zhou hugged her back tightly. “I believe in you too that you won’t leave me.”
“What nonsense are you talking about? Why would I leave you? I can’t bear to.”
She was comforting him now and it made Song Zhou feel even more guilty.
Ruan Qi and Tang Beibei had to go to school on Monday, so they started their grueling week.
Not only did they have to attend classes and do homework, but they also had to rehearse. Although the dance studio had shortened the training hours so contestants had more time to practice their competition dances, time was still tight.
Tang Beibei could clearly feel that Ruan Qi was working harder than before. She asked curiously, “Did you suddenly become so determined because of love?”
Ruan Qi sighed. “My love rival is too outstanding. If I don’t work hard, I’ll be left behind.”
Tang Beibei said with her chin propped, “She became famous at the age of 21. After four years of training, she became the popular celebrity she is today. However, in terms of ranking, she is at best a C-or D-list celebrity. It’s entirely possible for you to surpass her!”
Ruan Qi’s eyes lit up. “Wow, to be praised by a top student is so motivating!”
“Hehe, let’s work hard together! My husband is so outstanding, I can’t fall behind either!”
Ruan Qi wanted to tell her that her husband’s excellence was truly extraordinary!
Ordinary people couldn’t get close to him.
Ruan Qi looked at her innocent best friend and sighed.
Her best friend… She also had extraordinary brain and figure!
Speaking of time, Tang Beibei really maximized hers.
The first thing she did when she woke up was to memorize books. She read even when she was having breakfast.
She then took a nap on the bus to school and paid full attention in class and practiced dance after class. She didn’t even want to speak and just lay down at the side to take a short nap.
At night, she went to rehearse after she studied.
Jiang Jingchen watched her fall asleep after taking a shower without even drying her hair. He dried her hair with heartache and couldn’t bear to touch her.
Seeing how hardworking Tang Beibei was, Ruan Qi felt that her hard work was far from enough.
When it was time for her shift, Tang Beibei followed Professor Chen to the hospital for a joint consultation with Madam Wu.
A joint consultation was when Madam Wu’s primary physician would meet and discuss with other departments to come up with the best treatment plan possible for Madam Wu.
It was Tang Beibei’s first time participating in such an activity. She was wearing a white coat and taking notes seriously.
The doctors discussed Madam Wu’s case for a while. Their expressions were solemn, and they all looked slightly worried.
Madam Wu had already done a bypass, but she had another heart attack.
Her second heart attack was more complicated, so the treatment was also harder this time.
Professor Chen glanced at Tang Beibei’s notes and said slowly, “Beibei, what do you think?”
Tang Beibei’s hand that was holding her pen froze.
When she realized that all the doctors were looking at her, she leaned her head against the wall and wanted to burrow into a hole.
She was a second-year student. She couldn’t even understand some of the terms the doctors used. How could she have any thoughts about Madam Wu’s treatment?
“You’ve studied medicine for two years. In ancient times, apprentices started seeing patients after a few years of study. Give it a try. There’s a first time for everything.” Professor Chen said.
But Tang Beibei wanted to say that she hadn’t learned anything in the two years she had been studying medicine!
However, since Professor Chen had asked, she had no choice but to answer..
