Jiang Jingchen was not in good health, so there were no other activities planned after the wedding ceremony. His butler, Song Zhou, came over and pushed the wheelchair back to the villa.
After getting in the car, Tang Beibei saw the man leaning against the window with the sun on his face.
His eyelashes were extremely long, and his nose bridge was also very high. Perhaps it was because he was sick that the uninjured half of his face was white and translucent under the sun. His face was flawless with the scarred half hidden in the shadows.
He looked quite handsome.
Suddenly, the man turned his head. She didn’t have time to avoid his gaze. Their eyes met, and she felt a little awkward.
The man raised his hand, his deep voice pleasant to the ears as he said, “Your veil hasn’t been lifted yet.”
Tang Beibei nodded and lowered her head to his hand, like an obedient kitten waiting to be caressed.
Jiang Jingchen’s eyes were filled with interest as he lifted her veil and tidied her hair.
Tang Beibei felt his cold fingertips but his actions were very gentle. She thought to herself that since she had already married him, she would try her best to get along with him no matter what happened in the future.
“My bride, what’s your name?” The man suddenly asked.
Tang Beibei’s face tightened, and her thoughts of getting along with him were instantly crushed.
“I… I’m Rong Mei’er.”
The man’s dark eyes were like an abyss that could suck people in. Although he didn’t probe but his presence exuded an invisible sense of oppression.
It was said that he was weak, and he could go any time. He was a dying man but at this moment, she didn’t feel weakness but authority.
Tang Beibei felt guilty under his stare.
He was sick, not stupid. She could not hide the fact that the Rong family had changed brides.
“I’m Tang Beibei.”
“Surnamed Tang, not from the Rong family?”
Tang Beibei shook her head. “It doesn’t matter who I am. Rong Mei’er isn’t willing to marry you, but I am.”
The man chuckled coldly and didn’t say anything else. Tang Beibei didn’t know if he was happy or angry as he closed his eyes to rest. She felt extremely uneasy.
She was like a sinner waiting to be judged, but her judge refused to give her a verdict and kept her hanging in suspense.
…
When they arrived at the villa, the butler, Song Zhou, pushed Jiang Jingchen upstairs.
Tang Beibei caught up with Jiang Jingchen and said, “Let me push you.”
“No need.”
The butler stopped her and pushed Jiang Jingchen into the bedroom.
“First young master, I’ll send this woman back and settle the score with the Rong family!”
The Rong family was too much. They actually found a random woman to marry the young master? It was simply outrageous!
Didn’t they know who the first young master was? How could he tolerate a woman of such status? This woman was just waiting to be abused!
Jiang Jingchen’s eyes were cold and calm. His voice was as soft as the breeze and he seemed to be very weak.
“It’s not necessarily a bad thing. Just let things be.”
“How can we do that? Your status is…”
Jiang Jingchen waved his hand. That woman was right. It didn’t matter who married him. What was important was whether she was willing to do so.
“Has she signed the marriage agreement?”
Song Zhou was vexed. He did not expect the Rong family to change brides.
“Rong Sheng was the one who passed me the document. I was busy at the time and didn’t read it in detail.”
Jiang Jingchen took the contract and saw Tang Beibei’s name on it. He said indifferently, “Take the contract to get our marriage certificate.”
The butler was shocked. “But, but, young master, are you really going to let her be your wife and get a marriage certificate? What if she wants a divorce and wants to split your assets in future?”
They could set out rules in the marriage agreement, but it would be a different story if they got a marriage certificate.
Jiang Jingchen’s eyes were cold, and his voice was cold but firm. He didn’t sound sick at all.
“You’re just hoping for me to get a divorce?”
“I wouldn’t dare!”
The butler felt wronged. He was worried that the woman had ulterior motives, so he spoke out of turn.
When he heard the knock, he went to open the door in confusion and saw the woman standing at the door. She was pretty with a delicate face, and her eyes were big and lively, like black jade.
Although she was wearing an ill-fitting wedding dress, it couldn’t hide her beauty. She was indeed many times more beautiful than Rong Mei’er. 𝒃𝙚𝙙𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝒍.𝒏𝒆𝒕
Was this why the young master didn’t want to swap her out?
“Our young master needs his rest. You…”
Before the butler could finish his sentence, a man’s weak cough could be heard.
“Cough, cough. Come in.”
Tang Beibei slipped in sideways to avoid the butler. She saw the man sitting in the wheelchair coughing a few times. She said carefully, “Mr. Jiang, although I’m a substitute bride, I’m willing. I’ll be good to you and be a good wife. Please don’t be angry.”
He stopped talking on their way home after asking her name. She panicked and decided to be honest with him.
“It’s a little hot, help me change my clothes.”
He also wore a suit for his wedding today.
To please him, Tang Beibei immediately stepped forward and unbuttoned his suit.
The two of them looked at each other. Tang Beibei blushed and avoided his eyes. But she was so nervous being so close to a strange man that her hands were shaking.
“Is, is that enough?”
Jiang Jingchen’s eyes were cold and dark, like he was a little impatient. He coughed and said, “Pants, I can’t do it.”
That meant that he could take off his own shirt.
“…!”
She had just said that she would be a good wife. Wouldn’t she be slapping her own face too quickly if she didn’t help him now?
Her fingers trembled even more.
However, she had never unbuckled a man’s belt before. She didn’t know how to do it and couldn’t unbuckle it after a long time. She had no choice but to ask him.
“Um, how do you unbuckle your belt?”
Jiang Jingchen held her soft and limp hand to press a button on his belt. Click! The belt… It was unbuckled and she laughed in surprise.
“So, there’s a hidden button in this. How magical.”
Jiang Jingchen stared at her with his deep and cold eyes, as if he could see through her soul.
“You’ve never unbuckled a man’s belt before?”
This woman was young and pure. How seductive…
“Take them off.”
His clear and cold voice sounded very serious.
