Chen Chen flushed the toilet and went out with her eyes still closed. She didn’t have a clue that her lower part had been seen.
The man who was left behind had to wash again. Then he went to pat the woman up with a dark and distressed face.
“What are you doing?” Chen Chen was ill-tempered in the morning. She rubbed her eyes and complained, “All right. I sleepwalked to bed again. I don’t care about it. Is it such a big deal for a man…?”
She yawned. She was relaxed when she saw herself dressed in pajamas with the b.u.t.tons on. “Go away. I want to sleep.”
“Get up and go to the hospital with me.” Jiang Rui uncovered her quilt. It was unfair; he had washed his body three times that morning, while the woman could continue to sleep.
Chen Chen was so angry that she jumped out of bed and slapped hard on the bathroom door. Jiang Rui heard the sound of teeth brushing and then left with satisfaction.
Ying Cheng was called to babysit in the morning. He had to stay here to look after Tuan Zi.
“Brother, who messed you up?” On the moment Ying Cheng waked in, he saw Jiang Rui’s cold face. Although he was like that in ordinary days, it was different in a brother’s eyes. Jiang Rui’s eyes were mad, which showed that he was in a very bad mood.
Jiang Rui threw an egg into the frying pan and said, “Nothing. You’re supposed to accompany Tuan Zi at home, and take her to the supermarket by the gate to have breakfast when she wakes up.”
“Oh.” Ying Cheng realized Jiang Rui not only was in a bad mood, he was very depressed. “Going to the hospital like that, would the whole Bai family be killed by him…?”
“See what she is doing and ask her out to have breakfast.” Jiang Rui’s voice exposed his impatience. So Ying Cheng hurriedly went to ask her. When he walked to the living room, he saw Chen Chen walking to him angrily.
He suddenly understood. His brother must have quarreled with Liuliu!
“Hey, sis!” He waved to her when Chen Chen lifted her eyes and said, “You’re so early.”
Ying Cheng went to her. “Sis, did you quarrel with my brother?”
“Who has the time.” Chen Chen got angry again at the mention of Jiang Rui. She wouldn’t feel comfortable at the moment, since she didn’t get a good sleep. “I suggest your brother sees a doctor. He’s a psycho!”
Having finished those words, they felt the cold eyes and got seated. Ying Cheng gave her a pitiful eye and thought if his brother only knew Chen Chen was Liuliu in the future. Would he think he was cheated and kill her…?
He shivered. He didn’t remember much about the things that happened when he was young. Xunxun once told him Liuliu had lived in the Ying family for two years and seemed to be close to Jiang Rui. Jiang Rui held Liuliu who was less than three years old like a babysitter, when he was only eight.
“Did you hear me?” Jiang Rui kicked him.
Ying Cheng screamed, “What did you say?” Seeing Jiang Rui’s narrowed eyes, he said hurriedly, “I was distracted, brother! Please tell me again, haha!”
Jiang Rui looked at Chen Chen, but she rolled her eyes, which meant ‘I wouldn’t repeat for you’.”
“Sis…” Ying Cheng looked at her pitifully. Chen Chen said angrily, “He told you to stay here after breakfast and don’t go out. Bear will come to pick you up by noon.”
Ying Cheng saluted to Jiang Rui. “I promise!”
“Let’s go.” Jiang Rui stood up but Chen Chen didn’t even move her head. “I’m not full yet.”
“Sis, please stop acting like that. Didn’t you see the cold eyes from my brother?” Ying Cheng worriedly looked at them. However, Jiang Rui sat down again after a few seconds of cold eyes.
Chen Chen became more worried seeing him sit down. She ate faster for her own sake and finished the porridge with a few slurps. “Let’s go.”
In the armed police hospital, Bai Weirong hadn’t been quiet for a second since she had moved in two months before. Reporters, guards and other people kept hanging around the hospital every day. The Bai family booked the whole floor of the VIP room, which didn’t allow anyone else’s residence or presence.
The nurses couldn’t stand Bai Weirong’s behavior since long ago. She pointed at them and went crazy every day. The fixed bones cracked every once in a while, which would result in them being scolded.
But that morning everyone found that Bai Weirong was very cooperative to the treatment. After the exam, she even changed to a beautiful dress and pretended to be an ill beauty with her shoulders revealed. And she greeted the nurses with polite smiles.
“I know why she acts like that.” A round-face nurse said excitedly, “The G.o.d of War is coming!”
The nurses were crazy about it and started to yell.
“Really? We can see the G.o.d of War! Ahhahaha… Thank G.o.d! It’s my shift today.”
“Huh, I will be changed soon and can’t see him.”
“Maybe he will arrive in a minute.”
When they were yelling, a voice came, “Pardon me, is Bai Weirong living in this floor?”
A nurse with short hair turned around unconsciously and said, “Yes, but you can’t just… Jiang… the G.o.d of War??”
Everyone there turned silent and the nurses stared at the man by the door. Although they didn’t know how the G.o.d of War looked like, it had be the man in front of them, without a doubt. It was because of the graceful military uniform he was wearing, and the stars on his shoulders were shining so that their eyes hurt.
“Can we see her now?” Chen Chen who had been ignored opened her mouth. A bunch of women who couldn’t see the truth behind. “Did you know your idol was a sociopath?”
The nurse with a round face reacted quickly, “Yes. I can guide you there!” The other nurses were quite resentful.
Entering a door which had a No Admittance sign, they saw soldiers guarding there. Bai Kai stepped around in front of the room and hesitated when he saw them. Then he quickly approached them to ask, “Why is she here?” He looked at Jiang Rui with dissatisfaction. “Jiang Rui, what do you mean by this?”
“This is my wife. So it’s natural for me to bring her here.” Jiang Rui looked at him and added, “What? We’ll leave if we’re not welcomed here.”
“Dad!” Bai Weirong shouted from inside the room, “Let Jiang Rui in.”
Chen Chen thought that since she was not called, she would stand outside. But Jiang Rui held her hand and said, “Let’s go inside!”
Bai Weirong excitedly looked at Jiang Rui, but her eyes turned grim when she saw Chen Chen.
“Jiang Rui, you finally come to see me!” She started to cry. “I’m sorry. Last time, it was my fault. Please forgive me. I’ll treat your daughter as my own child in the future. I will be nice to her.”
Chen Chen felt uncomfortable hearing those words. “Tuan Zi has nothing to do with you”. She had been angry since she was up and she could pour her anger onto Bai Weirong right then.
“Miss Bai, if your brain was hurt, I can remind you.” She stared at Bai Weirong with an ironic expression. “Tuan Zi is my daughter and she doesn’t require your attention. If you want a child, you can have one on your own. I’m sure many people will be happy to offer you their sperms.”
Bai Weirong stared at Chen Chen. “You… how can you say that?”
“Why can’t I say that?” Chen Chen laughed, “You can be so shameless, trying to steal other people’s daughters, and I can’t even talk about it.”
“Jiang Rui, you’re just going to let her bully me?” Bai Weirong felt so innocent that she cried and stared at the man with those watery eyes.
Jiang Rui was holding Chen Chen’s hand the whole time and he showed their hands to her in case she didn’t see it. “My wife is right. Besides, she can bully anyone with my protection.”
Bai Weirong looked at Jiang Rui with disbelief. “You would do that to me for another woman’s sake?”
Bai Weirong always thought that Jiang Rui was mad because she scolded his daughter; she had never taken Chen Chen into consideration. They did get married. So what? They could also divorce. She was kind of narcissistic and thought Jiang Rui liked her.
Besides, the Bai family didn’t motivate their relationship. They also thought that Jiang Rui would marry Bai Weirong if he was clever enough. The marriage between the two families could benefit both their statuses.
“Miss Bai.” Jiang Rui looked at her and said, “She is my wife, which is to say, she is my woman. And for me, you are a stranger.”
Chen Chen trembled inside. He said that again. Why did the man kept calling her wife…?
“You don’t like me?” Bai Weirong asked tearfully.
Jiang Rui said impatiently, “When did I like you?”
“But… but you’ve never denied it!” Bai Weirong shouted, “I said to the others that we were together, and you never denied it.”
“Nor did I admit it.” Jiang Rui looked at her with despise. “As for what you said, those with brains won’t believe it.”
Only those in the Bai family would believe it. Others just didn’t want to disgrace them or annoy them. Bai Kai who was secretly listening behind the door suddenly recalled something Wen Pintang said.
“Don’t hurt Chen Chen, or you’ll be against the Wen family.”
Wen Pintang called Bai Li intentionally to warn the Bai family. Bai Li was so annoyed that he cracked his favorite dark-red enameled pottery. But he said to Bai Kai repeatedly that he shouldn’t hurt Chen Chen, at least for the moment.
“Ahahah!” Bai Weirong started to scream. Bai Kai rushed in to hit on the bell and blamed Jiang Rui, “Are you here to apologize or to force her?”
Jiang Rui looked like he had nothing to do with it. “If you continue playing the fool, I won’t put up with it.”
“Jiang Rui! Jiang Rui!” Bai Weirong reached for him. “I know you like me! I know it!” She suddenly pointed to Chen Chen, “It’s you! You told Jiang Rui to leave me. I’ll kill you, I will!”
Chen Chen stepped backwards and Jiang Rui stood in front of her. Jiang Rui was about to kick when Bai Weirong took a bottle used for transfusions and threw it directly at Chen Chen.
Chen Chen wanted to evade, but Bai Kai made her trip.
“Ah!”
Jiang Rui didn’t hold her in time, so Chen Chen knocked her head on the side of the bed.
Jiang Rui got her in his arms and saw her crooked face because of the pain. He felt sorry and funny at the same time and whispered to her ear.
“Pretend to pa.s.s out.”
Chen Chen was in pain and shocked when she heard the man’s words.
“Quickly, close your eyes and don’t open them until I tell you to.” Jiang Rui stared at her and Chen Chen understood immediately. So she closed her eyes and pa.s.sed out…
