When Tang Beibei arrived at home, she ran into the living room and circled it before she went upstairs to find Jiang Jingchen.
“Jiang Jingchen, hubby, where are you?”
“I’m here.”
Jiang Jingchen came out of the study. When he saw her sparkling eyes on him, he smiled.
“Beibei, we haven’t seen each other for more than eight hours. Did you miss me?”
Tang Beibei ran up to him. Her face was slightly red, but she still lowered her head and kissed him on the lips.
“I did.”
He had told her before to prove her feelings with action.
Jiang Jingchen was in an extremely good mood. He cocked an eyebrow and asked, “Beibei, are you trying to take advantage of me?”
Tang Beibei gagged. Her eyes were wide open as she retorted angrily, “No! You were the one who said that I should prove my feelings with action. That’s why I kissed you.”
“Yes, I did say that. Then what about when you were sleepwalking, you kissed and hugged me, and even took off my clothes to touch me?”
Tang Beibei covered her face in embarrassment and said, “I was sleepwalking.
It doesn’t count because it doesn’t represent my real intentions!”
“So, your real intention is to kiss me?”
Tang Beibei gritted her teeth. Although this man’s legs didn’t work, he had a silver tongue and she was rendered speechless.
Suddenly, her line of sight was blocked, and she felt a warm touch on her lips. She blinked rapidly in shock.
The man had kissed her.
She came back to her senses and thought of a reason to refute him. She smiled and said, “Hubby, you’re taking advantage of me by kissing me!”
The man nodded indifferently. “Kissing my wife isn’t taking advantage. It’s intimacy.”
“… Huh.”
Why was this different from what she had expected?
“Come again? You kissed me. It’s not intimacy. You are taking advantage of me. You are fantasizing about me!” Tang Beibei warned sternly.
The man’s expression was still very calm. There was even a hint of smile in his black eyes.
“I am fantasizing about you. Beibei, you caught me. You are so smart!”
Tang Beibei felt that this man was teasing her.
She puffed up her cheeks and stood up. “I heard from Song Zhou that you’ve prepared a gift for me. Where’s the gift?”
Jiang Jingchen held her hand. “Push me to the study.”
Tang Beibei pushed his wheelchair to the study and saw a white object that looked like a gift box on his desk.
“This is my gift?”
“Yes, open it and take a look.”
It was the first time that Tang Beibei had received a gift. She was very excited and opened the gift box carefully.
It was a very thin necklace.
“What a beautiful necklace!
“Let me put it on for you.”
“Alright!”
Tang Beibei looked at the shiny necklace and couldn’t wait for him to put it on.
When he put on the necklace, she heard a “ding” sound, like the sound of a combination lock. She asked in confusion, “What’s that sound?”
“It’s the clasp of the necklace. It’s a magnetic lock. If it’s forced open, the necklace would be damaged and would lose its value.”
Jiang Jingchen’s eyes were profound as he explained to her. If she wanted to untie the necklace, she would need a special software and his fingerprint.
So, this was his gift to her. He wanted to lock her up.
So that she would be his, forever!
“Does it look good?”
Tang Beibei looked at him and asked expectantly.
Jiang Jingchen stretched out his hand and ran his slightly cold fingers along the necklace, across her clavicle, and then to the back of her fair neck… He was like a beast that had encountered delicious food and wanted to take a bite.
“Very good,” he said.
She should taste good too. He lowered his head and kissed her ear lobe. Seeing that the woman’s ears were turning read, he restrained the beast in his heart.
“This necklace must be expensive, right?”
Jiang Jingchen shook his head. “It’s not expensive. It’s on sale and cost only a thousand yuan. Take it as a gift from me. Hope you like it.”
1,000 yuan for a necklace was too expensive! Tang Beibei frowned.
However, this was the first time he had bought her a gift. If she told him not to buy any more, he would be sad, so she held her tongue.
She took out a mirror and looked at the necklace. It was really beautiful. 1,000 yuan for such a beautiful necklace was worth it.
“Thank you, hubby. I love it.”
“Courtesy demands reciprocity. Do you have anything good to give me?”
“Of course, but I didn’t prepare a gift. Next time, I…” Tang Beibei felt that it would be nice to give each other gifts, but she was interrupted before she could finish her sentence.
“Beibei, you already have something good. You don’t have to wait until next time.”
“Do I? What is it? As long as I have it, I can give it to you!” Tang Beibei said generously.
“Then, I won’t stand on ceremony.”
The man wrapped his arms around her waist, pulled her onto his lap, and kissed her lips…
Tang Beibei felt as if her soul was about to be taken away by this man.
She wasn’t rational as she leaned weakly against his chest and panted.
Tang Beibei was puzzled. His lung capacity was better than hers. He really didn’t look like a sick person.
However, when she thought about it, there was a strange feeling in her body when they kissed. Some parts of her body felt like they were being bitten by ants, and it was very itchy.
Could this be the side effect of oxygen deficiency from kissing?
“Beibei, you are the best gift. Will you give yourself to me?”
Downstairs, Song Zhou was bringing dishes to the table when he heard footsteps and saw Tang Beibei pushing the young master out.
Her lips were swollen and as red as a rose. Her cheeks were rosy and her eyes seductive. He looked at the young master in surprise.
Tsk, such a beauty and the young master could still bear it and pretend to be disabled, Song Zhou thought to himself.
His self-control was either very good or he was broken and couldn’t do it!
He was really worried that the young master didn’t know how to be intimate with a woman since he had never touched a woman.
Should he prepare some props to remind the young master?
He might have forgotten because he had feigned disability for so long.
When they were eating, Tang Beibei put food on Jiang Jingchen’s plate, and Jiang Jingchen didn’t refuse. In the end, he gave up picking up his own food and just ate whatever Tang Beibei put on his plate. Tang Beibei didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
She felt that her 29-year-old husband, was still an extremely childish three-year-old boy.
Tang Beibei went back upstairs to the study to use Jiang Jingchen’s computer, but he shook his head to express refusal. She frowned and interlaced her fingers with his and wheedled, “You can read a book. I’ll only be using it for a while.”
“I’m not letting you use mine because I got you a new one.”
“A new what? A new computer?”
“Yes, I’ve hidden it in the study. Go find it. If you find it, it’s yours. Don’t blame me if you can’t find it.”
Tang Beibei stared at him to make sure that he was not lying. Then, she started to look for the computer. She thought that he would hide it well. She looked for a long time until sweat broke out on her forehead, but she still couldn’t find the computer. She sat on the sofa, feeling a little depressed.
“Where did you put the new computer?”
Jiang Jingchen glanced at the box on the sofa. “So far yet so close.”
So close?
Tang Beibei stared at him, walked up to him, and tugged at his sleeve. “But the computer is so big. You can’t possibly hide it on your body. Where is it?”
Jiang Jingchen watched her walk past the box several times but still didn’t see it. He stared at her silly little face, frustrated.
His wife was not the sharpest tool in the shed, so he must take good care of her.
“Turn around. The blue box might be what you’re looking for.”
Tang Beibei turned around and saw the slim box on the sofa. She opened it curiously. It was an extremely thin computer, just slightly larger than a tablet.
“Wow, it’s really a computer. It’s so small!”
Jiang Jingchen saw that she looked like a kid in the candy store, almost jumping for joy, and said with a nod, “You can put it in your school bag. It’s easy to carry around. Although the computer is small, everything is top of the line.”
“Wow, and it’s in my favorite blue. It must be expensive, right?”
Jiang Jingchen saw that she loved the computer so much but was concerned about the price, so he lied, “It’s not expensive, it was modified from my old computer.”
“You even know how to modify a computer. You’re amazing!” Tang Beibei praised.
In her heart, she thought about what her senior Lu Fan had said about her husband – disabled and unable to work. He obviously didn’t know her husband, who knew productivity software well and even knew how to modify computers.
When he was better, he could make money by opening a computer modification shop.
The more Tang Beibei thought about it, the more excited she felt. She must study medicine well and cure him.
She quickly turned on her computer and devoted herself to translating the article.
The woman didn’t say a word to him the whole night. Jiang Jingchen felt as if he had gotten himself a love rival.
Three days later, Tang Beibei finished translating the articles. Before she handed them to Professor Chen, she would ask the professor if he had any treatment ideas for her husband.
However, before she sought consultation, she must figure out the extent of Jiang Jingchen’s leg injury, what caused him to be impotent, what medicine he was taking….
