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

Tang Beibei arrived at M-Country. When she walked out of the airport, a sudden gust of cold wind made her wriggle her shoulders.

But when she thought about seeing Jiang Jingchen soon, she felt happy and couldn’t care less about the cold.

It was late and there were no public buses. She took a taxi to the largest hospital in M-Country. When she arrived at the hospital, the driver told her how much the ride cost and her heart ached.

Taxi fares here were many times more expensive than in China. However, because she was here to see her husband, she gritted her teeth and accepted the high expenditure!

She asked around the hospital for a patient named Jiang Jingchen to no avail. She frowned and called Jiang Jingchen, but she still couldn’t get through.

She could only go to the hotel she had booked. She walked out of the hospital and was about to hail a taxi when one pulled up in front of her. Without thinking, she got into the taxi and told the driver where she was going.

She even asked the driver if the hotel was far away and how much it would cost.

The driver told her that it was quite far and asked her to be patient.

Tang Beibei did not ask any more questions. She looked out the window at the scenery outside. The capital of M-Country was packed with high-rise buildings and bustling shops. However, she was concerned as they got further and further away from the bustling streets.

“Driver, where are we going?”

She asked the driver in English where they were going since they seemed to have deviated from the GPS-recommended route.

When Tang Beibei got into the taxi, she had already opened a map application on her phone. She wanted to remember the route so she could come and find Jiang Jingchen again tomorrow.

The driver didn’t answer her question and sped up. Tang Beibei panicked.

What should she do if the driver was a bad person?

“Stop!”

Tang Beibei shouted and slammed the car window, but the driver showed no intention of stopping.

Suddenly, he made a sharp turn. Due to inertia, Tang Beibei’s forehead hit the car window. With a bang, she was knocked dizzy.

She quickly shook her head to reorient herself. The driver turned the steering wheel suddenly again. She held on to the back seat to stabilize herself. When the car finally stopped, she wanted to throw up.

The driver opened the car door and pointed a dagger at her, asking her to handover her money and phone.

Tang Beibei shuddered at the glinting blade and reluctantly took out her bag. The man snatched her bag with force and then her phone.

“Give me back my phone. I need it to contact my husband!”

Seeing that she refused to let go of her phone, the man cut her arm with the dagger as a warning. Tang Beibei cried out in pain. Her life was more important, so she let go.

The man smiled smugly holding her phone and her bag. When he saw the beautiful woman getting out of the car, his couldn’t hide the lust in his eyes.

Tang Beibei kept retreating when she saw him walking towards her. She was really unlucky to have encountered a robber.

She had already lost her property and money; she couldn’t let him ruin her innocence too!

She suddenly looked behind the man and shouted, “Police, police, help!”

When the man heard her shout for police officers, he instinctively turned to run away.

However, after running for a while, he realized that there was no one behind him. He realized that he had been played. He went back to chase after the woman, but she had run far away.

Tang Beibei ran as fast as she could towards a street. She didn’t know how long she had been running but she felt like her lungs were going to explode. She held onto the wall, stopped to catch her breath and take a break.

She looked at the lit street in front of her and wanted to walk over. Only where there was light would she feel safe, but she was afraid that if she walked over, she would be detected and attacked.

She squatted on the ground, her legs weak. It was dark all around her and there seemed to be nowhere she could ask for help. She didn’t dare to make a sound and shivered in the frigid wind.

It was so cold.

Jiang Jingchen, where are you?

After a short rest, she stood up with the help of the wall. She could not stay here forever, or she would freeze to death.

She couldn’t tell where she was going in the dark and she didn’t know how far she had walked. She was too tired, so she curled up in the corner of a garage and fell asleep.

In Y-Country, Jiang Jingchen finally found time to turn on his phone after dealing with business. He immediately saw the message from Tang Beibei.

His cold eyes instantly softened.

He had left too suddenly that night. He thought that he would be done with business in a day and fly back, but he was busy until just now.

Jiang Jingchen was used to doing things alone. He never had to report to anyone what he was going to do, but at this moment, he was suddenly worried.

Now that he was married and had a wife who was worried about him, he vowed to tell her everything in future so she wouldn’t worry about him.

He dialed her number, but her phone was turned off. He was puzzled.

Was she upset with him?

He called again, but the phone was still switched off.

He was slightly annoyed now and called Wen Nan to ask if Tang Beibei was at home.

Wen Nan said, “No, Beibei wasn’t too happy in the morning. She hasn’t come home after she left. 1 was planning to look for her.”

“Can you get through to her phone?”

“No.”

Wen Nan sounded anxious, but in her heart she thought about what Tang Beibei would encounter in an unfamiliar place such as M-Country. Her experience should be quite enjoyable.

Jiang Jingchen frowned and hung up. He quickly called Song Zhou over and asked him to investigate Tang Beibei’s whereabouts.

Song Zhou asked Tang Beibei’s school mates and friends and found out that she had left school with Ruan Qi. Song Zhou immediately called Ruan Qi to ask. Ruan Qi was puzzled.

“She booked a plane ticket to M-Country, and she should already be in M-Country yesterday!”

H ii

Oh no!

Song Zhou’s scalp went numb.

Song Zhou took a deep breath. “Are you sure that she went to M-Country?”

“Of course, but what do you mean by that?”

“Nothing. I have to go now.” Song Zhou quickly updated Jiang Jingchen, “Young Master, Young Madam has gone to M-Country. Coincidentally, Lu Fan has also been sent to M-Country by his family last night.”

H ii

Was Song Zhou hinting that his wife had eloped with another man?

Song Zhou’s heart trembled when he saw the young master’s frighteningly dark expression. If Tang Beibei had really eloped with another man while the young master was away, she would be courting death!

“Young Master, where are you going?”

“Where else? I’m going to find my wife!” Jiang Jingchen said through gritted teeth.

She was his wife and yet she wanted to elope with another man. He would never forgive her!

Song Zhou quickened his pace and chased after Jiang Jingchen. He felt that the young master’s cold and sinister aura didn’t indicate that he was going to find someone, but to catch an adulterer!

In M-Country, Tang Beibei, who was sleeping on the streets, was woken up by a commotion and saw a pair of middle-aged foreigners staring at her curiously.

She wanted to stand up, but after squatting for the whole night, her legs were numb, and she almost fell.

“Miss, are you alright?” The foreigner asked in English.

Tang Beibei was glad that her English was not bad. Otherwise, she would be in hell.

“I’m fine, but my wallet and phone have been stolen. I’m thirsty and hungry now.”

The couple sympathized with her. The middle-aged woman took out a piece of bread from her bag and gave it to Tang Beibei. She also asked if they could help her in any way.

Tang Beibei ate the bread and told them that she would like to go to the largest hospital to find her husband, who was a patient there.

The middle-aged couple said that they could help by driving her to the hospital.

Tang Beibei was so grateful that she wanted to cry. She met kind people when she was alone and miserable overseas. God had been kind to her.

After getting in their car and chatting, she found out that the driver’s name was John.

When they arrived at the hospital, Tang Beibei bowed and thanked the couple. She asked for John’s contact information so she could thank them after finding her husband. John smiled and said that they would be happy to host her and her husband.

After getting John’s address and phone number, Tang Beibei smiled and turned to walk into the hospital. She did not expect to see the pale-faced Lu Fan at the hospital entrance.

“Senior Lu Fan, why are you here?”
