Chapter 1S0: Do You Like My Tricks?

Jiang Jingchen took Tang Beibei out on Sunday morning for their autumn excursion and Song Zhou drove them to pick Ruan Qi up on the way.

They were headed to the nearby Fengye Mountain, which had been recently developed into a tourist attraction.

Because the mountain was filled with maple trees, all the leaves would turn red when autumn came. The red maple leaves made it look like a burning mountain. The colors were bright but not glaring. It wasn’t hot either. Instead, the maple leaves rustled in the cold autumn wind.

Fortunately, the sun was out today and it wasn’t too chilly.

One could already admire the scenery while driving up the winding road.

There was a hotel at the top of the mountain. Song Zhou brought their things in while Jiang Jingchen took Tang Beibei around to take photos.

Tang Beibei1 s stepped on fallen maple leaves as she asked Jiang Jingchen if he knew how to take good photos. Jiang Jingchen held his phone and said, “Not really.”

Tang Beibei was embarrassed by his praise. “I don’t either. Then let’s not despise each other, hahaha.”

Jiang Jingchen chuckled and led her forward. The scenery was indeed beautiful. He focused his phone on the woman’s side profile and took a photo.

He then took a few steps back and snapped a few more photos.

Tang Beibei turned to look at him. “Hubby, are you taking pictures?”

“Yup. Here, take a look.1‘

Jiang Jingchen showed her the photos. Tang Beibei was curious and took his phone. The photos looked very artistic.

“Wow, hubby, you did a great job. And you said that you don’t really know how to take good photos. You are just being modest.”

Jiang Jingchen replied calmly, “It’s because my Beibei looks good, so I got good photos.”

Tang Beibei covered her mouth and laughed. She didn’t know if it was because she had been praised too much, but she felt a little smug and less ugly now.

“Then help me take a few more photos. I want to keep them as souvenirs.” Jiang Jingchen nodded and continued to take photos of her.

She hadn’t been aware that he was taking photos of her before, so her expression was relaxed and her gaze natural.

Now that she was aware, she was a little nervous. Her limbs were stiff; she didn’t know how to pose and just stood up straight.

Jiang Jingchen walked up to her and kissed her. Tang Beibei didn’t dodge. She thought he was trying to encourage her, so she stood on tiptoes and met his kiss.

The man suddenly pressed the shutter, and Tang Beibei turned her head in surprise.

He showed her the photo that he had just taken. It was of the two of them kissing very naturally. The photo was of the side of his face that was not scarred. They looked really good.

“This is a really good photo. I like it!”

“Do you like the photo or do you like me?”

Tang Beibei stared at him blankly and suddenly smiled, her eyes curved into coquettish crescent moons.

“Hubby, you’re trying to trick me?”

“Well, do you like my tricks?”

He lifted her, sat her on the railing and wrapped his arms around her.

He then pretended to be vicious and said, “If you don’t like my tricks, I’ll push you over.”

Tang Beibei was really frightened. She hugged his neck. “Tricks. I like your tricks. It’s quite high here. I’m scared.”

Jiang Jingchen chuckled. “Silly girl, I was just teasing you. How can I bear to let you get hurt? I’ll protect you. Don’t be scared.”

Tang Beibei steadied herself and looked at the scenery in the distance. She exclaimed, “It’s really nice to enjoy the scenery from here.”

Not far away, Song Zhou and Ruan Qi walked over and saw Tang Beibei sitting on the railing and Jiang Jingchen looking at her smiling face.

Ruan Qi could not help but think of a saying: she admired the scenery while he admired her.

How wonderful!

She took out her phone and took a photo of them before she and Song Zhou took another path. Ruan Qi turned to look at the man beside her. His side profile was really good-looking on her phone.

An autumn outing with a handsome guy. Although this handsome guy was not her boyfriend, she had first dibs!

The four of them walked around for a bit and met again. They had snapped many photos and went back to the hotel for lunch. They would hike up the mountain after lunch.

Next to the hotel was a higher peak that tourists could hike up to enjoy more scenery.

Jiang Jingchen had good stamina. He looked like he was strolling leisurely in the courtyard as he hiked up the mountain. He didn’t even pant. On the other hand, Tang Beibei and Ruan Qi were so tied that they were holding their backs. There were also many tourists coming and going. Some girls were so tired that their boyfriends had to carry them up the mountain.

Ruan Qi looked at Jiang Jingchen and said, “Why don’t you carry Beibei up the mountain?”

Jiang Jingchen thought that he could hint to his wife that his legs had recovered fully.

He walked up to Tang Beibei and squatted. “Beibei, come up.”

Tang Beibei laughed and walked around him. “Hubby, your legs have just recovered. How can you piggyback me? I m very heavy.”

“My legs are fine, Beibei.” Jiang Jingchen walked up to her again. “You won’t let me piggyback you, then do you want me to bridal carry you?”

Tang Beibei pulled a long face. “Stop fooling around. 1 can walk on my own.”

Jiang Jingchen looked into her eyes and gave in. He then reached out to her. “You won’t let me piggyback or bridal carry you. Then hold my hand.”

Why did he sound so pitiful? Tang Beibei stood on her tiptoes and kissed him on the cheek. “Don’t be angry. 1 just don’t want to tire you out. I can do it myself. I want to do it myself.”

Jiang Jingchen lowered his head and kissed her lips. “Okay, I know. But it’s not tiring to hold hands.”

Tang Beibei finally gave him her hand.

Ruan Qi, who was walking next to them, suddenly said, “I don’t know why, but

I suddenly feel very motivated.”

Song Zhou replied, “It’s because your energy has been replenished after watching their lovey-dovey. Miss Ruan, come, can I lend you my hand?” “Well. Yes, Mr. Song!”

Tang Beibei was embarrassed by their teasing and quickened her pace.

When they reached the peak, Jiang Jingchen gave Tang Beibei some water.

They sat on a big rock, and he found a big leaf to fan Tang Beibei.

Ruan Qi stood at the peak and shouted boldly, “Perched atop the mountain, 1 gazed down upon a diminished world. Mwahahaha…”

Tang Beibei was amused by Ruan Qi’s evil laughter. She put her head on Jiang Jingchen’s shoulder and rubbed her eyes, feeling a little sleepy.

They started hiking without an after-lunch nap. Naturally, they were tired after walking for so long.

Jiang Jingchen took off his coat and covered Tang Beibei’s head. “Breathing in fresh air and talcing a beauty nap will make Beibei prettier.”

Tang Beibei smiled at him. “Why do you always say that I’m pretty? Am I really pretty?”

“To me, yes.”

“Hehe, but I’m happy to hear what you’re saying.”

There were some words that women never got tired of hearing.

Like when someone praised them for their good looks, good temperament, intelligence, or talent.

This man practically said these things all the time. How could she not like it?

Tang Beibei closed her eyes and whispered, “You are very handsome too.”

Jiang Jingchen nodded and patted her gently. “Go to sleep.”

The mountain breeze was very soothing and sleep-inducing.

Jiang Jingchen thought that Tang Beibei was like a gust of wind that came into his world quietly, pried open his heart and went straight into it.

Ruan Qi wanted to say something, but when she saw that Tang Beibei was asleep, she stopped and sat down next to Song Zhou.

“What are you looking at?”

Song Zhou pointed at two men in black hats and said, “Those two people have been following us. They might be detrimental to Young Master.”

Ruan Qi was surprised. She followed his gaze and saw two men sneaking around. She asked nervously, “Who are they? Will they hurt us?”

“Not during the day, but it’s hard to say when night falls.”

Ruan Qi’s lips twitched. “Are you saying that it’s dangerous to hang out with you guys?”

Song Zhou turned to look at her. “Don’t worry. Since we brought you out, we ll bring you home safely.”

Ruan Qi patted her little heart. “Will you guys be alright?”

“It’s hard to say.”

Tang Beibei slept for more than an hour. After she woke up, they made their way down the mountain.

Ruan Qi didn’t kid around and turned to look at the men who were following them. Suddenly, someone turned her face.

“Don’t look. It’ll arouse suspicion, Miss Ruan.”

Ruan Qi was nervous. “They are following us. What are they trying to do?”

“They don’t want my young master’s legs to recover. Something might happen tonight. Don’t run around without my instructions.”

“Okay. I’ll be good.”

This was a matter of life and death. Ruan Qi obeyed without kidding around.

Song Zhou glanced at her, and his face revealed a smile that he himself did not notice..
