Wooing my Bodyguard Wife-Chapter 247 Another Jail Cell Companion

"Hey stop that!" Jingwei declared as he instinctively helped her up. Xiao Chun clutched her swollen cheek in a daze. Did this man have a split personality? Why was he so uncaring of her before and now so gentlemanly?

But even if he did, he made her heart flutter like no man had done before!

"How can you hit a woman? What kind of man are you?" Jingwei scolded Boss Wang, who puffed out his chest in indignation.

"Shut up! Stay out of my business, you gay boy!" Boss Wang spat out, and Jingwei frowned in disgust as flecks of spit flew in his direction.

He wasn't even insulted by that man's words - there was nothing wrong with being homosexual! If Xue Ning was a man, he'd be one!

(Back in the hospital, Sun Haowei shuddered, his eyes twitching even as he laid on the bed, comatose.)

"Did you even brush your teeth?" Jingwei asked, shuddering and Boss Wang yelled in outrage, giving Jingwei a lovely view of his yellowing teeth. Guess not.

That was bad enough, but then Boss Wang decided to follow up his statement by grabbing his collar, preparing to deck Jingwei in the face.

"You bastard!" He yelled, and Jingwei flinched at the foul breath. Thankfully he didn't have to endure it for a second longer - Ming Guang quickly wrenched his hand off Jingwei's collar and socked him straight in the jaw!

Xiao Chun shrieked in surprise at the loud crack that resounded, and Boss Wang's body hit the floor with a loud thud. He wheezed and gasped in pain, mouth opening and closing like a fish on dry land.

"Is he going to die?" Xiao Chun cried out, covering her mouth in fear.

"He'll live. Wei Yan, call the police." Jingwei ordered, and let out a tired sigh. Why didn't he just pitch a tent in front of Xue Ning's house and just sleep there?

"Arrest me?! Don't you know who I am?! Even Mayor Poh gives me face!" Boss Wang glared angrily at them, squeezing out the words from his throat. He made another swipe for Jingwei.

Jingwei dodged it easily, giving Ming Guang more room to subdue him.

"Great, you can join him in the same jail cell then," Jingwei replied more cheerfully. He turned to the woman who was still half-clinging to his arm.

"Go home and forget this man, he's not worth it." He instructed, prying her hands off him.

Jingwei then quickly bent down and swiped Boss Wang's fat wallet from his back pocket. He opened it and his eyes widened at the stack of cash - clearly someone didn't want his club activities traceable online!

He grabbed the cash and passed it to Xiao Chun.

"Here, take his money and go see a doctor and then do something else with your life. Don't waste it on him! Do you want to sue?"

"No! I want to stay with you!" Xiao Chun said, even as her hands easily accepted the cash pressed into her hands. Her eyes were brimming with gratitude as she took in Jingwei's imposing figure under the dim lights.

"You saved me! I'll follow you forever!"

"Please don't. if my wife finds out you tried to seduce me, there's nothing saving you from her." Jingwei said.

"Wife?" Xiao Chun said in dismay, and Sun Jingwei gave such a beautiful smile that it made her feel more light-headed than the blow she suffered on the cheek.

"Yes, my wife. The most beautiful woman on this earth!" He said impassionately.

After that declaration, Xiao Chun could only shuffle away, heartbroken and defeated while all of them waited for the police to haul Boss Wang away.𝒇𝘳𝐞𝚎𝓌𝑒𝑏𝒏𝑜𝙫ℯl.c𝚘𝒎

At least she had made some money tonight, even if it wasn't through conventional means!

But she still stole glances at Jingwei from the corner of her eyes. Maybe… maybe she could still spend the night with him? Or maybe she should just follow him around… yes…

Meanwhile, in the holding cells…

"Poh? My old friend? Is it really you?" Boss Wang exclaimed as he peered through the bars to the other holding cell, where his friend sat on the thin mattress given. He was aching all over, but at least his head had stopped ringing after the blow to his jaw. Sun Jingwei did say something about Mayor Poh being in jail, but Boss Wang didn't believe it until he saw it with his own eyes.

"Holy shit, is that your wife in the next cell? What on earth happened?!"

"Didn't you hear? I thought everyone would know about it by now." Mayor Poh muttered bitterly.

He leaned closer to take another look; gone was Mayor Poh's haughty manners and tidy appearance! Now his hair was mussed up as though he had pulled at it angrily, and there were many creases on his outfit. His moustache seemed to be twitching. There was also an oily sheen on his face, visible under the fluorescent lights.

He couldn't really see Mrs Poh clearly from his angle, but it didn't take a genius to know that she was also looking less-than-cheerful about the new state of things.

"How would I know?" Boss Wang said. "I only woke up in the evening to go to the hostess bar!"

"My wife happened, that's what! This stupid bitch went and offended Sun Jingwei, so he arrested both of us! I'm divorcing this fucking bitch the moment I leave this place," Mayor Poh declared loud enough for his wife to hear. He shot his wife a dirty look, and she returned it with a middle finger.

"Wow. I really missed so much," Boss Wang muttered to himself. This lovey-dovey couple seemed to be ready to kill each other!

"What are you here for then?" Mayor Poh asked curiously. "Did you touch the wrong woman?"

"Funny you should say that! It's because of that same guy Sun Jingwei! He tried to paw my precious Xiao Chun, and then threw me in here! Can you believe this married man dared to snatch my woman?"

Mayor Poh raised an eyebrow. He knew Boss Wang well enough that his version of the event most likely wasn't accurate, but it was still entertaining.

"Married? Sun Jingwei is married?"

"Yes! Shocking isn't it! I learnt that just now. He wouldn't stop talking about how his wife was a goddess. And he still had the nerve to go after Xiao Chun! Man, I really want to hit him!"

Boss Wang still felt upset at how Jingwei so easily stole Xiao Chun's affections. Xiao Chun was just a hostess girl that he lavished attention on, and now she decided to dump him for someone younger and richer? Inexcusable!

(Of course, he didn't care that he was technically doing the same thing to his wife at home. That was different - men had needs, and his ageing wife wasn't doing it for him any more.)

"Old friend, relax." Mayor Poh said, a wicked smile growing on his face.

"Relax? How can I relax! Have you lost your mind?!"

"Don't worry about Sun Jingwei," Mayor Poh gestured to him to lean in closer as he whispered conspiratorially into his ear past the bars.

"I've already made arrangements. Someone has helpfully decided to reach out to us to help us get revenge!"
