Chapter 170 - 170: Jiang Jingchen Really Dotes On His WomanChapter 170: Jiang Jingchen Really Dotes On His Woman
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
When Ruan Qi found out the price of the bottle of purified water, she glanced at the oblivious Tang Beibei and quietly looked away.
It could be seen from such a small detail that Jiang Jingchen really doted on his woman.
It was just bottled water. He ordered 199-yuan bottles for everyone but gave Tang Beibei one that cost more than 500 yuan. Just so Tang Beibei didn’t find out, he tore off the label on the bottle and put it in a very cheap plastic bag.
Sigh, such a dedicated husband. She didn’t need a full one, just half of someone like Jiang Jingchen!
Two hours later, their dance training ended. Tang Beibei wiped her sweat as she packed up quickly.
Ruan Qi saw that she was in a hurry and asked, “What’s going on?”
“I’m afraid that my husband will come over to wait for me, so I’m hurrying.”
Ruan Qi did not know whether to laugh or cry when she saw her carry her school bag and ran. “Beibei, your coat. Sigh.”
Ruan Qi picked up Tang Beibei’s coat from the floor and chased after her. When she was outside the dance studio, she shivered.
Only then did she realize that it was raining.
When the autumn rain fell, winter’s icy grip was on its heels. The temperature had dropped.
She had just finished exercising and was sweating profusely. The cold wind made her shiver.
But she didn’t go back inside but put the coat on Tang Beibei. “What’s the hurry? Put on your coat. It’s cold outside.”
Tang Beibei didn’t expect it to rain. She shrunk her shoulders and put on her coat.

Ruan Qi saw her looking in the distance with a face full of anticipation. The thought of having someone who would wait for her at home or come and pick her up warmed her heart.
“Alright, I’ll go back inside. 1 don’t want to watch your lovey-dovey anyway.”
Tang Beibei suddenly thought of something and turned to ask, “Qiqi, did you bring an umbrella?”
“No, I’ll wait here until the rain stops.”
Song Zhou pulled up shortly after. Jiang Jingchen got out of the car with an umbrella and put his arm around Tang Beibei’s shoulders.
“Sorry, it rained suddenly and there was a car accident on the way. Are you feeling very cold?”
“It’s alright.” Tang Beibei got into the car first. She watched him put away the umbrella and then looked at Song Zhou in the driver’s seat.
“Song Zhou, are you busy later?”
“Young Madam, tell me what you need.”
“Um, can you help me bring an umbrella to Ruan Qi? She didn’t bring an umbrella and plan to leave only after the rain stops.”
Song Zhou thought for a moment and said, “I’ll send both of you home first, and then bring her some dinner and send her home later.”
“Thank you, Song Zhou.” Tang Beibei happily sent a message to Ruan Qi.
Jiang Jingchen was surprised to hear Song Zhou volunteer to bring food for a girl and raised his eyebrows at him.
Song Zhou rubbed his nose, sat up straight, and focused on driving.
To celebrate the cooperation with Yang Hao, Old Master Song held a celebration party at a five-star hotel.
Yang Hao chatted with everyone for a while before he raised his glass and said to Old Master Song, “Old Master Song, last time when I said that your grandson’s born unlucky, I felt that I was too rash and might have upset you. I’m here to apologize.”
Old Master Song saw him down his wine and responded politely with a smile, “Mr. Yang, it’s a small matter. These things don’t exist if you don’t believe them.”
Yang Hao smiled and nodded. “Yes, yes. I’ve been doing business for a long time and 1 like to invest. Every time before 1 invest, 1 would ask someone to divine if it’s a good investment. This partnership of ours has been divined as good but my Feng Shui master said that he would like to read your younger grandson’s Bazi. Consider this a chance to clear your grandson’s name and my apology to you.”
Without waiting for Old Master Song’s agreement, Yang Hao called the Feng Shui master he invited over and asked Old Master Song for his grandson’s Bazi.
“You’re the astrologer, Mr. Zhao. You’re an expert.”
People tended to respect the occult more as they aged.
Old Master Song hadn’t been in good health recently, so he valued these things even more.
He had heard about this Mr. Zhao.
He was very famous in the Feng Shui industry and had done many successful cases before.
It was said that although this person helped people with Feng Shui, when he was young, he graduated from a famous university and studied geography and Zen Buddhism. He became interested in metaphysics later and became a Feng Shui master.
Mr. Zhao was in his fifties, but he looked peppy and was well-dressed. He looked to be in his forties at most.
“You flatter me, Old Master Song. Yang Hao asked me here to do something, so I’m here to work today.”
“Then I’ll have to trouble you.” Old Master Song was hesitant initially but since it was Mr. Zhao, he didn’t hesitate and gave him his grandson’s Bazi.
Mr. Zhao read Song Kai’s Bazi and took out a few copper coins from his pocket, tossed them into the air and caught them.
He then opened his palm and let everyone see the heads or tails of each coin.
Three copper coins, two tails and one heads.
Mr. Zhao sighed. “Although this young master has lived in a wealthy family since he was young, his life is hard with a bit of malice. He brings bad luck to his parents or siblings.”
Old Master Song’s eyes turned red when he heard that Song Kai brought bad luck to his parents and siblings.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIf it weren’t for Song Kai’s existence, his son wouldn’t have died.
“Master, is there a way to cure it?”
Mr. Zhao said solemnly, “There is a way since the coin flip resulted in two tails and one heads. If he married a woman with good fortune who can suppressed his hard luck, not only will he have a successful career, but his entire family will also prosper.”
Song Hai quickly said, “Song Kai is getting engaged to Lu Linlin. Is Lu Linlin a woman with good fortune?”
Mr. Zhao said, “I can only tell you if I have her Bazi.”
Old Master Song quickly called Lu Huai to ask for Lu Linlin’s Bazi.
After Mr. Zhao got Lu Linlin’s Bazi, his expression changed drastically when he read it.
“Not good. It’s very bad. This woman is the source of fire and a jinx. If she marries this young master, their fates will change drastically. In the worst case, their marriage will cause bankruptcy and death.”
Old Master Song’s face contorted. “Master, are you saying that they shouldn’t get married?”
“Young master’s life element is wood while this woman’s is fire. Their natal charts are not compatible. Not only should they not be married, but young master should also stay away from her. Otherwise, a disaster will befall and bring bad luck to the people around the young master.”
Song Hai cursed angrily, “It must be because of Lu Linlin that my last project went south.”
Old Master Song’s face was gloomy. Many annoying things indeed happened in the Song family after Song Kai and Lu Linlin met.
It seemed that Song Kai and Lu Linlin’s engagement had to be called off.
Old Master Song asked anxiously, “Master Zhao, how can we improve the fortune for the Song family?”
Mr. Zhao glanced at Yang Hao, who shook his head. Mr. Zhao smiled at Old Master Song and said, “I’m really sorry, Old Master Song. I promised Mr. Yang to read the young master’s fortune and my task has been completed. If you have other questions, you can make an appointment with me, and we’ll talk in detail.”
“Okay, okay. I’ll exchange contact information with Mr. Zhao then.” Old Master Song said excitedly.
Mr. Zhao replied with a smile, “Old Master, you’re Mr. Yang’s business partner and friend. Of course, I’ll give you my contact information. I’ll also give you a discount and try to move your appointment up. After all, I’m fully booked for the year. Please pardon my busyness.”
“No, no, Mr. Zhao’s advice is highly sought after.”
Mr. Zhao stepped back, and Yang Hao went forward and joked with Old Master Song. “I had a bad feeling before. Sigh, 1 didn’t expect the reading to turn up like this. Fortunately, I asked Master Zhao here to help me read further, or I might lose my investment if disaster befall on Chu Group or Song Enterprise.”
Old Master Song was feeling a little embarrassed, but he smiled and thanked Yang Hao politely.
After the celebration party ended, Old Master Song called Song Kai over to talk about calling off his engagement with Lu Linlin..
