The next day, Tang Beibei was woken up by her alarm clock. She rubbed her eyes to wake herself but she was still feeling sleepy.

Which young girl didn’t love to sleep?

However, she didn’t want to fall behind in her dancing, so she must get up and practice.

Professional dances must sharpen the sword for a fleeting moment on stage.

If you were not good on stage, you would make a fool of yourself.

She sat up in bed and saw the man looking at her.

She scratched her head as she asked, “Hubby, what are you looking at?”

Jiang Jingchen propped himself up on his arms and said, “1’11 only get up after my sweet dreamer kisses me.”

Tang Beibei smiled and kissed him on the cheek. Jiang Jingchen was not satisfied and pointed at his lips. “Beibei, this is where sincere kisses happen.”

Tang Beibei covered her mouth. “I haven’t brushed my teeth. I’ll come back after I brush.”

Jiang Jingchen got up and pressed her down in bed. “What a coincidence. I haven’t brushed either.”

Tang Beibei lay on her back, unable to breathe from the man’s kiss. She licked her lower lip after he let go.

“Hubby, you’re so mean.”

Jiang Jingchen rubbed his nose against her cheek and said with a smile, “I’m only mean to you. Are you scared?”

Tang Beibei wasn’t scared. She was just tickled by his nose. She smiled, moved her face away and rolled into his arms.

“Hubby, go back to sleep. I’m getting up to practice.”

Jiang Jingchen gently stroked her back. “Let me hug you for a while and then 1’11 get up with you.”

He then sighed softly, “Beibei, you work so hard. If I stay in bed, you’ll despise me.”

Tang Beibei laughed in amusement. “Why would I? I wouldn’t!”

Jiang Jingchen said, “If 1 don’t exercise and sleep too much, I’ll gain weight and become a fat uncle.”

Tang Beibei tilted her head and looked at him. “You’re nine years older than me. Haha, you’re indeed an uncle.”

Jiang Jingchen chuckled and reached out to tickle her. Tang Beibei dodged with a smile, jumped off the bed and made a face at him before running into the bathroom.

After his morning exercise, Jiang Jingchen went downstairs to make soy milk for Tang Beibei without changing his clothes.

Seeing that his back was covered in sweat, Silent Sister wanted to remind him to change his clothes so he wouldn’t catch a cold.

However, Jiang Jingchen didn’t even look at her. He finished grinding some soybean milk and said, “Put this in a thermos so my wife can drink it when she comes downstairs.”

“All.” Silent Sister quickly did as she was asked.

Jiang Jingchen went upstairs to pack Tang Beibei’s school bag. He packed her books and then went downstairs to get some chocolates, candy and a bottle of purified water. He laid her bag on the sofa before he went upstairs to change.

When he came out of the shower, he saw that the woman was also back in their bedroom. She was lying on the sofa and seemed to have fallen asleep.

“Beibei?”

“Oh, you are out. My turn to shower and change.”

Tang Beibei rubbed her eyes. She felt sleepy when she was exhausted.

“Beibei, are you very tired?”

Tang Beibei made a gesture with her fingers and said, “A little. I’m not a professional. Most dancers in the dance troupe are dance majors. It’s a bit challenging for Ruan Qi and I to keep up with them, but we can learn a lot from them.”

Jiang Jingchen kissed her on the forehead. She was sweaty and her hair was wet.

“My Beibei is very powerful. She will definitely keep up but I don’t want her to be too tired. Let’s go for an autumn outing this weekend, okay?”

“An autumn outing?”

“Yes, I’ll take you around to see the mountains and rivers.”

Tang Beibei thought for a moment and said, “The dance teacher is giving us a test on Saturday. It depends on whether 1 pass the test. If 1 pass the test, I’ll treat this as a reward. But if I don’t, there will be extra practice on Sunday.”

Jiang Jingchen saw that she cared so much about her grades, so he picked her up helplessly and said, “Okay. Whatever you say. Now, go and take a shower.”

On her way to school, Tang Beibei didn’t talk to the man as usual. Instead, she looked down at her dance practice video from yesterday.

Jiang Jingchen turned his head, saw his serious-looking wife, and smiled.

This woman was so cute even when she was serious about her work. So alluring.

His heart was restless as he lowered his head and kissed her on the lips. Tang Beibei looked up at him in confusion and was extremely adorable.

“Honey, what’s wrong?”

“Nothing. I just want to kiss you.”

Tang Beibei smiled and kissed him on the lips. “If I practice hard and pass the test, I’ll be able to go on an autumn outing with you.”

“Yup.”

When they arrived at school, Tang Beibei put on her earphones and listened to the rhythm of her dance music as she walked. She sat down next to Ruan Qi.

Ruan Qi was slumped over her desk, looking very tired too.

Tang Beibei told her about the autumn outing and Ruan Qi instantly perked up. “Bring me along.”

“We can only go if we pass the dance test on Saturday, Qiqi.”

Ruan Qi slumped over her desk again and said sadly, “I don’t think I will learn it in time. I dance so ungracefully that 1 look like a weirdo.”

Tang Beibei comforted her, “We are ungraceful only at the beginning when we first learned the dance. But if we were experts, we wouldn’t need classes, would we? Don’t be depressed. Just practice more.”

Ruan Qi put her elbows on the table and rested her face on her hands as she sighed.

“When you are tired, you have your dear husband to comfort you. I’m still single. Sigh.”

Tang Beibei chuckled. “Then let Song Zhou send you home every night!”

Ruan Qi’s eyes flashed as she turned to ask her, “Hey, do you think Song Zhou will like a girl with my personality?”

Tang Beibei nodded. “Why not? You have a good personality!”

Ruan Qi furrowed her face, lacking self-confidence. “Sigh, it’s hard to be confident in front of a man I like. But 1’11 try my best.”

Tang Beibei patted her back comfortingly. “You’ll be fine. I feel that Song Zhou likes you too. Go for it, Qiqi!”

Ruan Qi twirled her bangs. “Really? Song Zhou likes me too?”

“I’m just guessing. I can’t tell for sure, but my husband said that he was doing a good deed when he asked Song Zhou to send you home. It probably meant that Song Zhou likes you. My husband wouldn’t lie.”

Ruan Qi asked, “Then, will Song Zhou be going on your autumn outing?”

“Of course. He’s my husband’s butler and personal assistant and manages his private life. How can he not go when we’re out?”

“Then 1 want to go too. For love, I’ll give it my all!”

Ruan Qi held her fists, ready to fight for love!

However, her fight didn’t even last ten minutes. When the teacher started lecturing, she dozed off. Tang Beibei pinched the back of her neck and Ruan Qi woke up.

Ruan Qi laid her head on the table, feeling wronged. It was so difficult to be in love!

Meanwhile in a cafe, Wen Nan, who had exquisite makeup on, was drinking her coffee elegantly. She looked at the man opposite her and revealed a gentle smile.

“Young Master Minglang, thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to have coffee with me.”

Jiang Minglang waved his hand nonchalantly. “It’s my honor to have coffee with a beautiful lady. Also, I’ve found out some information about the Wen family that I wanted to share with you.”

“Wen something, Wen Sang, the first young miss of the Wen family has returned to the country with her younger brother, who is also the future successor of the Wen family.”

Wen Nan frowned and muttered Wen Sang’s name under her breath.

“Wen Sang is back in the country, which means that Wen Zhou might really be in poor health.”

Wen Zhou, the head of the Wen family, was also Wen Nan’s father.

“The Wen family has done a good job of keeping his poor health a secret. But Wen Sang’s return to the country is a significant clue. Wen Nan, 1 think it’s time for you to go home.”

Wen Nan smiled and said to him, “1 should but 1 have no one to rely on at the

Wen residence. I’ll need Young Master Minglang’s help.”

If she went back to the Wen residence with the help of a young master of the Jiang family, her chances of getting a share of the family assets would increase.

Jiang Minglang also smiled as he said, “If you need me, I’m willing to be of service to Wen Nan, but we need to help each other.”

He was hinting to Wen Nan that he would help her if she told him about Jiang Jingchen..
