Billionaire's Adorable Sweet Wife-Chapter 991: Well Done, Fourth Sister!

Sure enough, Bao Jingyan wasn’t satisfied yet.

He kicked again.

Chen Er’s gallstone was almost shattered by the kick.

He clutched his body, rolling on the ground in agony, quite pitifully.

Unfortunately, no one sympathized with him.

Su Xi spat and said, "Serves you right!"

Su Ruanruan feared someone might die, so she had Qin Chao and Yan Kuan carry him away...

Bao Jingyan looked at her and smiled, "Miss Su, are you feeling sorry for him?"

Su Ruanruan felt both angry and amused.

She said earnestly, "If he looked good, I might have felt sorry; for a scoundrel like Chen Er, what’s there to feel sorry about?"

Bao Jingyan glanced at her again.

Luckily, Qin Chao was quick-eyed and promptly dragged him away, rough as if dragging a dead dog.

...

It was late at night.

Barking echoed from He Jitang’s other residence. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

He Jitang was in the study reading ancient texts, and hearing the unusual sound, he told Shen Ci, "Go out and check."

Shen Ci went out.

In less than ten minutes, he returned covered in blood and dirt.

He reported to He Jitang, "Young Master He, Chen Er was beaten up! His tendons were severed."

He Jitang put down the book and walked out.

It was chaotic outside, with all the household staff surrounding Chen Er.

Chen Er kept moaning, cursing filthily.

Upon seeing He Jitang, Chen Er desperately crawled over and hugged his leg, sobbing, "Young Master, you must stand up for me! Miss Su had me taken and beaten up without reason! That Bao Jingyan is even more vicious! Young Master, look at my leg, it might be ruined."

He Jitang remained unmoved.

He looked down from above, his voice cold, "What did you do to upset my fourth sister?"

"I did nothing!" Chen Er steadfastly denied.

But He Jitang wasn’t easy to fool.

He turned to Shen Ci and said, "If he doesn’t speak, beat him until he does."

Shen Ci: ...

Chen Er was also dumbfounded.

He immediately cried out, "Young Master, you can’t do this! Miss Su, she... she... I just had thoughts about Yingzi, but I didn’t succeed. What does it have to do with me if she went crazy?"

After he finished.

He Jitang’s gaze turned cold and deep.

He asked softly, "What did you say when I asked you that day?"

Chen Er remained silent.

Blood and tears mixed on his face, making it look terrifying.

But he was extremely cowardly!

Shen Ci scolded him, "You never learn! You were untrustworthy in City B, and when you got to Yangcheng, you became even worse. Miss Su gave you a good beating!"

Chen Er dared not speak; he peeked at He Jitang quietly.

Afraid that he would abandon him.

After all, He Jitang still had a bit of affection for him. He said to Shen Ci, "Send him to the hospital! Once he’s healed, he can’t serve me closely anymore. Let him guard the gate."

Chen Er cried out in distress.

He was always flamboyant, how could he bear this humiliation of guarding the gate?

He Jitang ignored his protests and turned back to the study.

In matters concerning Su Ruanruan, he couldn’t focus on reading. He sat under the Palace Lantern, playing with the cinnabar beads...

After contemplating for a long time, he finally dialed Su Ruanruan’s number.

The phone rang a few times.

Su Ruanruan answered, not surprised, softly calling, "Third Brother."

He Jitang continued to fiddle with the cinnabar beads.

His voice was gentle in the night, "Fourth Sister, I only sent Yingzi away and didn’t instruct Chen Er to do such things."

On the other end, Su Ruanruan was silent for a moment.

She gave a faint smile, "I trust you, Third Brother."

He Jitang felt softness in his heart.

He wanted to seize the opportunity to invite her for afternoon tea... She had quite a few friends in Yangcheng, and she usually accompanied others for tea, didn’t she?

But then he thought of their respective positions, and dismissed the idea.

After the call, he felt even more empty and lonely than usual...
