Chapter 405: Sabotage Someone’s Relationship

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

The rehearsal venue was at a restaurant.

The male protagonist booked the entire restaurant, and Fu Jin and his team were pretending to be diners here. Someone would pretend to propose and then the male protagonist would propose to the woman he loved.

During the rehearsal, they had to cast the fake proposal couple.

Everyone looked at Tang Beibei and Jiang Jingchen. The two of them were stuck together the whole time, making others envious.

Fu Jin said, “Then Tang Beibei and your family do it. Any objections?”

Tang Beibei pointed at herself in surprise. “Me and my husband? Is that appropriate?”

She felt that her husband was too handsome. He would make others jealous if he appeared on camera.

Most importantly, she did not want her husband to appear in public. He would be too eye-catching.

Fu Jin said, “If you and your husband can’t do it. You can act as a couple with me. We’ve acted before anyway.”

Jiang Jingchen said through gritted teeth, “Don’t even think about it!”

Fu Jin shrugged innocently. “I didn’t say anything. It’s your wife who thinks it’s inappropriate.”

Jiang Jingchen said decisively, “We’ll do it!”

Tang Beibei looked at him in competition with Fu Jin again. Sigh, her mature and steady husband was acting juvenile yet again.

After casting the fake proposal couple, the others rehearsed the dance they would perform when the male protagonist proposed to the female protagonist.

After confirming that everything was good, everyone sat down to eat.

Tang Beibei looked at the dishes on the table and could not help but say, “There’s food, money, and dancing. There’s no better job than this.”

Jiang Jingchen took a spoon and tasted the dessert. It tasted too strong. He frowned and didn’t take a second bite.

Seeing that he didn’t like the dessert, Tang Beibei asked the waiter if they could order something blander. The waiter brought them a fruit salad.

That would be a little too bland, right?

But since someone was paying for it, she couldn’t say much. She asked Jiang Jingchen eat something first and said that they would go out and eat after the job was done.

Jiang Jingchen tasted a few pieces of vegetables. They were quite tasteless. He took out his phone, took a photo and sent it to his chat group.

“My wife ordered me a fruit salad. It tastes quite good. Too bad you guys can’t taste it.”

“…?? When has fruit salad become a rarity?” Yang Hao asked.

“Old Jiang, can you not show off?”

In this circle of friends, only Han Yun would call him Old Jiang.

“People in love are truly blind. Just a few pieces of green vegetables can satisfy Jiang Jingchen. I surrender.”

Came the reply from the youngest young master of the Wei family, Wei Teng.

“Lust dulls your mind. It’s so sad. A moment of sympathy for Mr. Chen. But will Mr. Chen show me what his wife looks like to make me envious?”

Came the reply from the heir of the Zhou family, Zhou Xu.

Lu Chen, the artist, also felt that Jiang Jingchen was too much. “Is Mr. Chen going bankrupt?”

Song Zhou said, “Young Master, do you need me to send some food over?”

Jiang Jingchen looked at his friends’ teasing and ate a piece of carrot.

He replied with a smile, “Love nurtures me. You singletons will not understand.”

His friends all sent him a middle finger emoji.

Soon after, Song Zhou sent a picture of a table full of dishes with the caption, “This is my wife’s nutritious meal. Everyone is welcome to join. Young Master, I’ve left a lot of food for you. There’s also soup for Young Madam to drink when she comes home.”

“Can you two be less shameless?”

Zhou Xu laughed in anger. He looked down on their display of affection. “It’s just a woman. What’s the big deal? There are so many women in this world.” Jiang Jingchen replied, “There are so many women, but unfortunately, none of them truly love you and belong to you. What are you so smug about?” Han Yun agreed, “Respecting women is self-love. Zhou Xu, you may want to restrain yourself in the future.”

Wei Teng said, “I just want to know who Jiang Jingchen’s wife is, what she looks like, and how she’s so capable that she can take down an old fox like you. If it weren’t for the fact that I can’t get away from work here, I would definitely fly over.”

Yang Hao also complained, “Don’t complain, okay? He didn’t even let me meet her after I came here. His wife is so precious. I also think that a person shouldn’t bend over backward for a woman, right?”

Yang Hao felt his worldview collapse when he thought about how the dignified Mr. Chen had actually turned over cow dung with his hands for his wife.

Jiang Jingchen said calmly, “My wife is indeed precious. She took a bullet for me and saved my life. She cooks for me, dances for me, studies for me and do all the things she didn’t dare to do before for me.”

“Such a woman is unique and unparalleled in this world. And she only belongs to me.”

The few men watched coldly as he showed off his love. They couldn’t take it anymore when goosebumps broke out all over their body!

Seeing that his friends were silent, Jiang Jingchen smiled in satisfaction. He put down his phone and fed Tang Beibei a piece of apple. He asked if she liked the restaurant and if so, they could come again sometime.

Tang Beibei waved her hand and said softly, “I just looked at the prices of the dishes. They’re so expensive. I don’t want to eat here.”

Jiang Jingchen looked at the menu. The prices weren’t that expensive.

People didn’t just come here for the food, but also for the romantic atmosphere.

However, any romance that cost money would be greatly discounted in his little wife’s mind.

He picked up the menu to block everyone’s view and pecked Tang Beibei on the lips. The little woman covered her mouth in surprise and stared at him with her round eyes.

“There, there are many people here. Stop fooling around.”

Jiang Jingchen replied aggrievedly, “I don’t think the food here tastes good. I need to replenish myself with some nutrition, or I won’t have the energy to help you.”

Tang Beibei looked at the dishes on the table. They really didn’t taste that good. She figured that Jiang Jingchen didn’t like the food here, so she held up the menu and kissed him.

“When this is over, we’ll go eat something good.”

“Alright!” Jiang Jingchen was satisfied.

Tang Beibei saw his mood improve and felt happier too. She smiled and continued eating. She wouldn’t waste food.

After a while, the waiter led a man and a woman into the restaurant.

Tang Beibei was surprised when she saw the woman.

“Hubby, hubby, it’s her.”

Jiang Jingchen looked up and saw Jiang Minghua. The corners of his mouth twitched.

Indeed, the heavens were playing a trick on them.

So, the female protagonist of today’s proposal was her?

That was really unfortunate.

Jiang Jingchen used the menu to block his and Tang Beibei’s face as he gestured for Fu Jin to come over.

Fu Jin walked over in confusion. “What’s the matter?”

Jiang Jingchen asked him, “When you accepted the job, didn’t you investigate the girl?”

Fu Jin didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Why should we investigate the girl?”

Tang Beibei explained, “That woman is the third young miss of the Jiang family. She doesn’t have a good relationship with my husband, and she knows us.”

Fu Jin looked at Jiang Minghua in surprise. Although he knew that there was a third young miss in the Jiang family, this was the first time he met her.

“Please find another couple.”

Jiang Jingchen added, “She knows me and Beibei. We need to leave, or we’ll ruin your job.”

Fu Jin was a little unhappy, but for the sake of the job, he said, “You guys go ahead.”

Jiang Jingchen stood up with Tang Beibei and walked away.

Tang Beibei quickened her pace, only to find that her husband was not leaving the restaurant but heading towards the kitchen.

She asked curiously, “Hubby, are you going to the kitchen to get something to eat?”

Jiang Jingchen hooked her nose. “You’re so smart, but other than finding food, we are also working.”

“Working? What are we going to do?”

Jiang Jingchen raised his eyebrows and smiled evilly.

“Sabotage someone’s relationship.”
