Chapter 286: Misbehave The Moment Your School Holidays Start?

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Tang Beibei exams were still going on, and Jiang Jingchen had taken quite a number of days off. It was about time for him to check-in at the office.

Without Song Zhou to do things for him, he reluctantly answered the phone. When customers complained about the company’s products and scolded him, Jiang Jingchen didn’t hold back and scolded them back. When they started quarrelling, the department head, Mr. Li, rushed over and unplugged his phone.

Jiang Jingchen put down his phone innocently. “That person scolded me. Of course, 1 had to scold him back!”

Mr. Li put his palms together and begged, “First Young Master, 1 beg you. Just play your games or watch TV dramas. If you continue to cause trouble, 1 won’t be able to hit my KPIs this month and will be reprimanded again.”

If the customer service department received too many complaints from customers, their salaries would be deducted. As the department head, he would also be scolded.

“You’ve already unplugged my phone, what else can I do? Sigh, games aren’t fun these days, and I don’t like watching TV dramas. Why don’t 1 just punch in and then go out for a walk?”

“Okay, okay. It’s fine even if you don’t punch in. Just let me know if you need anything.” Mr. Li begged him to leave quickly.

Jiang Jingchen’s face darkened. “Mr. Li, you make me feel worthless when you put it like that. I can do something, okay?”

“You’re quite valuable in our department. You’ve brought glory to our department and made us prosper.”

“Young Master, your butler is injured. You should go back and rest too. The weather is getting colder and getting out of bed is a chore. Isn’t it nicer to rest at home with the heat on?”

“Hmm, you’re right. I’ll be leaving then.”

“Yes, yes. Please go. I’ll walk you out.”

Jiang Jingchen’s colleagues were so jealous that they gritted their teeth. The end of the year was the busiest time for the company!

Jiang Jingchen went to Tang Beibei’s school. Tang Beibei’s exam week was finally over, and she was just waiting for official announcement that school was over.

When Jiang Jingchen went to pick her up, she was in the dance studio trying out some simple movements. As long as the movements weren’t too strenuous on her arm, she could still dance.

When she saw Jiang Jingchen, she stood up quickly like a child who had been caught with her hand in the cookie jar.

She looked at him carefully, afraid that he would lose his temper.

Jiang Jingchen was going to lecture her about doing rigorous movements that would aggravate her wounds before she was fully recovered. She would be the one in pain.

However, when he saw how scared she got so quickly, he was no longer angry. He asked instead, “When does school holidays begin for you girls?”

“Officially, school holidays start tomorrow. However, exams have ended for our faculty and there are no more classes. So, our holidays start today.”

“Hmm, so you misbehave the moment your school holidays start?”

“…” Tang Beibei hung her head guiltily.

Jiang Jingchen then asked Ruan Qi, “Since the holidays have started, where are you going to stay?”

Ruan Qi had been taking care of Song Zhou since he was injured. Song Zhou should be discharged from the hospital soon so logically, Ruan Qi would stay with them at the villa. However, Jiang Jingchen couldn’t tell her what to do. He had to ask for her opinion.

Ruan Qi was stunned for a few seconds. “I’m worried about letting someone else take care of Song Zhou. I’ll tell my parents that I’ve found a summer job and I’ll stay at your villa. You won’t mind me, right?”

“If I mind, will you not stay?”

Ruan Qi rolled her eyes. “Young Master Jiang, can you speak nicely, please?”

Jiang Jingchen’s face was cold. “My wife hasn’t fully recovered yet. Why didn’t you persuade her?”

Ruan Qi took a deep breath. Forget it. It was too tiring to quarrel with a protective maniac.

Tang Beibei was still a little scared and didn’t dare to say anything. She was very obedient when the man took her hand and left.

Jiang Jingchen didn’t speak to her in the car. Neither she nor Ruan Qi dared to talk too.

Ruan Qi decided to stay at the villa, so she had to pick up a few things from the Ruan residence first. Jiang Jingchen drove her there. Ruan Qi went down, packed her things and returned in less than ten minutes, but her face didn’t look good.

Tang Beibei asked worriedly, “Qiqi, what happened?”

“No-nothing. I’m fine.”

Tang Beibei looked at her face again and didn’t think that she was fine. Since Ruan Qi didn’t want to tell her, she didn’t probe further.

They went to the hospital to fetch Song Zhou and bring him back to the villa.

Although Song Zhou’s injury was on his back, the surgery was very successful. His bones and muscles were not injured. He could already walk, but his wounds still hurt when he walked, so he was asked to sit in a wheelchair.

Jiang Jingchen pushed Song Zhou out of the hospital in a wheelchair. Song Zhou was feeling a little panicked.

Jiang Jingchen said nonchalantly, “No need to thank me. Just serve me more diligently when you recover.”

He was the first young master. Other than his wife, he had never taken care of anyone else. He had to learn slowly how to take care of Song Zhou.

Back in the villa, Silent Sister had prepared a table of delicious food to celebrate Song Zhou and Tang Beibei’s discharge from the hospital.

After dinner, Tang Beibei and Jiang Jingchen watched a TV series while Ruan Qi sat on the sofa and rolled around.

“Why do 1 still have to go for dance practice after my exams? 1 don’t want to go! 1 don’t want!”

Song Zhou wanted to laugh when he saw her acting like a child. “Then don’t practice today.”

“I still have to hand in my homework today. If 1 don’t hand in my dance video, 1’11 be scolded by the teacher.”

Song Zhou was speechless.

“I’ll go with you,” said Tang Beibei sympathetically.

She wanted to get up, but the man beside her grabbed her wrist. “Behave yourself and sit down to rest. Ruan Qi, it’s fine to slack off for a few days. Anyway, your results aren’t the best. Handing in your homework late won’t improve your results.”

Ruan Qi was fuming. She threw the pillow away and went upstairs to dance. Song Zhou turned his wheelchair and followed her.

The tables had turned. He used to push Jiang Jingchen around, but now he was the one in a wheelchair. It was quite inconvenient for him to move about.

When they arrived at the dance studio, Ruan Qi changed into her dancing shoes and turned on the music. She watched the dance in the video and started practicing.

Song Zhou watched her dance. Although he did not know much about dance, he could tell that Ruan Qi was not a bad dancer. She was spirited and her street dance was very vibrant.

There was one movement she couldn’t master. She got a little annoyed and rolled on the floor.

“So annoying!”

Song Zhou wheeled himself up to her and handed her a bottle of water.

“If you are frustrated, just rest for a while. You danced very well.”

Ruan Qi turned to look at him. “Don’t learn from Jiang Jingchen. His mushy words give people goosebumps!”

Song Zhou didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “I said those words sincerely. I wasn’t imitating Young Master.”

After a pause, he said, “Young Master is cultured, and he speaks well. 1 can’t imitate him.”

Ruan Qi was surprised. “You’re very capable too. You know how to edit and produce videos.”

Song Zhou wanted to say that he had learned all that for Mi Qing, but he thought that Ruan Qi would be unhappy if she heard it, so he swallowed his words.

Ruan Qi took a sip of water, took a deep breath, and got up to continue practicing.

After she finished practicing the dance, she made a video and sent it to her teacher. She then pushed Song Zhou downstairs to wash up.

Song Zhou was a little embarrassed. He coughed lightly to tell her that he could do it himself.

Ruan Qi patted his shoulder dramatically and said, “Don’t force yourself when you’re injured. I can help you with such a small matter.”

Song Zhou watched as she squeezed out toothpaste. After he brushed his teeth, she poured him water to rinse his mouth. Song Zhou said, “I don’t need your help with the rest.”

“Why don’t you need my help? 1’11 help you take off your clothes.”

“No, there’s no need. Miss Ruan, 1 really can do this.”

“Mr. Song, don’t make a big deal out of this. 1’11 see your body sooner or later. 1 don’t mind seeing it sooner. When you’re better…” Ruan Qi didn’t finish her sentence, but he understood. When he was better, they could do a lot of things together.

Song Zhou swallowed hard. Although the two of them were confirmed as a couple, they had at most kissed and hadn’t gone any further.

Hearing Ruan Qi say such words first, his body temperature rose.

“Miss Ruan, I need to go to the toilet. You can’t help me.”

Ruan Qi rubbed her nose and left.

Song Zhou watched her leave and close the door while letting out a breath of hot air. When he came out of the shower, he saw that the woman had showered and changed into her pajamas. She was sitting on the sofa playing games.

She looked up and saw that he had showered and was wrapped in a towel. She put down her phone and whistled at him with a smile.

“Hey, Song Zhou, you look weak, but you are so muscular.”
