Chapter 23 - 23: Hubby, Don’t Let this Hurt Your Self-esteem



Tang Beibei didn’t expect the glass to slip off her hands. She had brought him a glass of warm water. Although it wasn’t boiling temperature, it was still hot.

She wanted to find tissues, but there were none in the study. She could only use her sleeve to dry him.

“Hubby, I’m so sorry.”

There was no reply.

The water was hot, but as a disabled man, Jiang Jingchen had to pretend to be weak and not move. He endured the pain and pushed her away calmly.

“It’s my fault. I suddenly felt weak, and my hands slipped.”

“If only 1 had left it on the table.”

Tang Beibei felt regretful. She spilled water all over him, but he didn’t move at all. It must be because of his paralysis that he couldn’t feel any pain.

“Beibei, why are you crying?”

Jiang Jingchen suddenly felt a little guilty when he saw her red eyes welled up in tears.

“Hubby, it was hot water. Didn’t you feel it?”

“Yeah, a little.” Jiang Jingchen didn’t want to see her cry. This woman was precious to him, so he couldn’t let her cry.

“Really?” Tang Beibei asked and pinched his thigh probingly.

Jiang Jingchen was speechless.

If he felt nothing, wouldn’t he really be a cripple?

But he had to endure the pain as he changed the subject, “Really. Please take me back to the bedroom to change.”

“Yes, let’s go for a change of clothes.”

Tang Beibei wiped her tears and wheeled him back to the bedroom. She fetched him a set of fresh pajamas and when she turned around, he had unbuttoned his shirt. She was stunned for about two seconds before she looked away quickly.

Jiang Jingchen put his wet pajama top aside. “Beibei, pass me the top.”

Tang Beibei nodded and handed him the fresh pajama top.

“Beibei, I can’t reach it.”

Jiang Jingchen said helplessly as he held out his stretched hand. The pajama top was still out of reach.

Tang Beibei took two steps forward and put the top in his hand. She thought that Jiang Jingchen would just take the pajama top but he held her wrist swiftly and pulled her onto his lap. She was so shocked that her eyes widened.

“Jiang Jingchen, you…”

“You have to call me hubby, Beibei.”

Tang Beibei leaned against him and felt the warmth on his skin. His arms were muscular and strong. She was puzzled. Wasn’t he weak and powerless just a few minutes ago?

Why was it that when he pulled her, he was so strong that she thought he could lift her off the ground?

“Hubby, let me get off of you. I’m very heavy. 1 could hurt your legs if I sit like this.”

Jiang Jingchen smiled. He put one arm around her waist and held the pajama top with the other.

“I’m not afraid of pain. I’m happy to let you sit on me.”

“But, but, you should get dressed or you’ll catch a cold,” Tang Beibei said worriedly.

“Okay, then you dress me.”

Tang Beibei stared at him and felt that the man in front of her was not twenty-nine but three years old. He was a little childish.

But he was a patient, and she could only give in…

She spread out the pajama top and helped him put it on. She put on one sleeve and then the other. When she spread out the top to his other arm, her arms were spread out like he was hugging him.

The man’s masculine scent rushed into her nose, making her a little dizzy. In addition, he was acting coy as he turned his head and breathed in her car.

Every breath he took was like a feather fluttering in her ear.

It felt itchy.

The itch slowly spread out like a net and enveloped her.

Not only were her ears itchy, but her neck was also itchy, and her heart was stirred.

“Beibei, why are your ears so red? Your face is burning as well. Are you not feeling well?”

The man’s voice was deep and soft in her ear. Tang Beibei didn’t know what was happening to her. She felt dizzy, and there seemed to be another excitement in her blood.

It was as if she needed to do something to stop herself from going crazy.

“No, I’m fine.”

Tang Beibei thought that she had controlled herself well, but what Jiang Jingchen heard in her soft and sweet voice were coquette and yearning.

He was on the verge of insanity.

“Beibei, help me pull the sleeve straight first.”

The woman was flustered and did things without any order. She held his arm and retreated as if she had touched something scary. She shrank back, and the shirt fell.

“Oh, oh. I-I’m sorry. I’ll fix it.”

Tang Beibei quickly picked up his shirt and put on his other sleeve for him. She then started to button up his pajama top.

“Hubby, I, I’ll stand up. You do the buttons yourself.”

“Okay.”

Smelling the woman’s fragrance, Jiang Jingchen didn’t expect his self-control to be so bad. If he didn’t stop now, he would expose himself.

Tang Beibei stood with her back facing him. Her heart was beating like a drum, and even her breath was hot.

When she saw that he was about to change his pants, she walked over to help him because he couldn’t move his legs and looked a little clumsy.

Jiang Jingchen looked at her serious expression. “I’ll try my best to take care of you. I’m not just saying it.”

Tang Beibei used to take care of her grandma who was bedridden. She wasn’t very good at doing this kind of thing, but she had to do it.

“Hubby, don’t let this hurt your self-esteem. I’m your wife. This is something I should do for you.” Tang Beibei pulled down his pants and put on a clean pair for him.

Her voice was light but her action of pulling up his pants was strong, almost lifting him off the wheelchair.

Jiang Jingchen stared at her intently as she picked up the wet clothes and put them into the washing machine downstairs.

When she came back, she had another glass of warm water with her. She didn’t hand it to him this time but held the glass and fed him the water.

“Hubby, I’m going to continue with my translation work. Please go to bed early if you feel tired.”

“It’s fine. I’ll keep you company.”

Jiang Jingchen didn’t know what was going on, but he suddenly felt warm in his heart. He couldn’t take his eyes off her.

They were back in the study and Tang Beibei went back to her homework. Jiang Jingchen didn’t disturb her.

Although she didn’t say another word to him, he was very calm this time. He didn’t feel as anxious and ignored as before.

When he looked up again, he saw that Tang Beibei had fallen asleep on the table. He did not know whether to laugh or cry.

“Beibei, wake up. Let’s go back to the bedroom.”

The woman was sound asleep and did not wake up.

She slept well, and he knew it from the first night they slept together.

She rolled into his arms and couldn’t be pushed away. If he didn’t stop her, she would have slept on top of him.

Jiang Jingchen tried to wake her again, twice. Finally, he stood up helplessly and carried her.

He brought her back to their bedroom, placed her on the bed, and pinched her nose.

“Beibei, you didn’t even wash your face, you dirty little thing.”

The woman hugged the blanket, turned over, and continued to sleep.

Jiang Jingchen, who was a bit of a clean freak, looked at her and rubbed his forehead.

He should let it go. She was his wife, so he shouldn’t feel disgusted with her in any way.

He went to bring his wheelchair to the bedroom, wrung a wet towel, and wiped her face and hands before he took off her socks and wiped her feet.

The woman felt a little itchy. She stomped her feet and shook off his large hand.

“Go away… Hubby… Kissi”

Jiang Jingchen couldn’t hear her clearly, so he went to the top of the bed to listen again.

“Hubby, touch… Hmmm… Kissi”

Jiang Jingchen stared at the woman’s flushed face with an innocent and silly pout..
