The Substitute Bride: Indulged by the Obsessive CEO

Chapter 152: Beibei, Can You Stand Up?

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

In Tang Beibei’s dance studio at home, music started playing.

Tang Beibei practiced her dance several times. When the music ended for the last time, she lay panting on the floor.

She thought about what Wen Nan said, which seemed to make sense, but something felt wrong.

But what felt wrong? She couldn’t tell yet.

Her phone vibrated and she crawled to get it. It was a message from Ruan Qi.

“Beibei, your husband’s legs have recovered. Does it mean that he can do that thing?”

“What thing?”

“Don’t play dumb. It’s what men and women do in bed.”

“Sleep?”

“… Silly Beibei, you’re annoying me on purpose, right?”

Ruan Qi sent a few R21 pictures after that message. Tang Beibei blushed.

“I don’t know. We’ve never done it before. Although we kiss, he has never taken the initiative to do that with me.”

Ruan Qi asked, “Then are you willing to do that with him?”

Tang Beibei paused and bit her lip in deep thought.

Would she be willing to have sex with Jiang Jingchen?

After pondering for a few seconds, she felt that the question couldn’t be answered by her alone.

Jiang Jingchen’s legs had recovered, but he had been very polite to her, which meant that he was not willing to have sex with her.

Hmm.

She was his wife and his legs had recovered, but he was unwilling to touch her.

She heard a knock on the door and the door opened. The man wheeled himself in with a fruit platter on his lap.

“Beibei, take a break. I’ve brought you something to eat.”

Tang Beibei looked at him and was stunned for a few seconds. She put down her phone, walked up to him, and took the fruit platter.

“Thank you. Cherry tomatoes. They’re delicious.”

She stuffed two into her mouth and gave him one. Jiang Jingchen opened his mouth and ate it.

As she ate, she asked him casually, “Hubby, do you wish that I was chubbier?”

“Yes, it’s good to gain some weight.”

Jiang Jingchen really wanted her to gain some weight. She hadn’t eaten well in the past and was very thin now. He even wanted to give her some supplements to nourish her body.

Tang Beibei thought about what Wen Nan said again. The cherry tomatoes in her mouth were sweet and sour, but she tasted bitterness.

However, she still stuffed them into her mouth. She started chewing only after stuffing seven or eight of them into her mouth.

Jiang Jingchen thought she looked like a little squirrel with her cheeks puffed up. She looked very cute. He reached out and poked her cheek.

Tang Beibei blinked blankly and mumbled, “Hubby, do 1 look ugly like this?”

Jiang Jingchen chuckled. This girl always felt that she was ugly. He lowered his head and kissed her between her eyebrows.

“Beibei, you have a misunderstanding about your appearance. From what 1 see, you are very pretty.”

Tang Beibei looked at him in shock, her heart pounding.

She quickly got up, turned on her phone and asked him to video record her.

Jiang Jingchen saw that she was shy. He dropped the subject and helped to video record her dancing.

After a few days of lessons, he now had some basic appreciation of dance. When he saw her body move to the rhythm, he felt that his wife was livelier and cuter when she danced.

Suddenly, there was a loud bang.

He saw on the phone camera that she lost her balance when she was spinning and fell on her knees.

His expression changed. Without thinking, he got up and walked towards her.

“Beibei, are your knees badly hurt? Can you stand up?”

Tang Beibei saw the man walk up to her and looked at him in shock, ignoring the pain in her knees.

Although she knew that his legs had recovered, she was still shocked to see him walk.

His legs had really recovered!

Jiang Jingchen rolled up her pant legs and checked her knees. They were both bruised and painful to look at.

He looked up and met her eyes. He belatedly realized that he could no longer hide the fact that he was disabled.

“Beibei, can you stand up?”

He was most worried about her.

Tang Beibei propped herself up with her arms and stood, but her knees hurt when she walked.

“Jiang Jingchen, your legs have recovered.”

Jiang Jingchen sighed. “Yes, they have. I didn’t tell you before because 1 wanted to…”

“Don’t, don’t say it. I, I understand.”

She was afraid that he would bring up the divorce so she hurriedly cut him off.

She lowered her head as she didn’t know how to face him.

Could she pretend that nothing had happened just now? If he could pretend to be a cripple, she could pretend to be dumb…

However, reality did not allow her to do as she wished.

The man bent down, scooped her up and put her in the wheelchair. It was impossible for her to play dumb now.

“Beibei, your knee needs to be treated now. I’ll go get you some medicine.”

“No. Don’t exaggerate.”

Jiang Jingchen didn’t want to argue with her and went downstairs to get ice and a first aid kit.

Wen Nan was surprised to see Jiang Jingchen walking downstairs and Tang Beibei sitting in the wheelchair.

“Mr. Chen, what happened?”

“Do you need something?”

Jiang Jingchen was worried about his wife now and was in no mood to talk to anyone else.

“No, no.”

Wen Nan saw his cold face and did not dare to anger him.

But in her heart, she was a little nervous about what she had said to Tang Beibei. Would she be exposed?

Jiang Jingchen used medicated liniment to rub Tang Beibei’s knees where she fell. Tang Beibei frowned in pain.

Jiang Jingchen’s heart was turned into a knot as he watched her wince in pain.

“Beibei, bear with the pain for a little while. If we don’t disperse the blood clot under the skin, you’ll be in a lot of pain tomorrow, and you may not be able to dance.”

“I will bear it.”

Tang Beibei closed her eyes, bit her lip, and clenched her little fists like a kitten ready to fight. He was amused and lowered his head to kiss her on the lips.

“Don’t bite too hard. My heart will ache if your lip hurts.”

“Okay.”

Tang Beibei obediently stopped biting her lower lip, but she still didn’t dare to open her eyes. She couldn’t bear to look at her kneecaps. It was as if she would be in less pain if she didn’t look at her bruised knees.

“Beibei, if there are dangerous moves in you dance, you should wear kneepads, okay?”

“Oh, 1 don’t have a pair yet. I’ll buy them tomorrow.”

Jiang Jingchen talked to her in an attempt to divert her attention so that she wouldn’t feel so much pain.

“Then let Song Zhou buy them.”

“There’s no need to trouble Song Zhou. I’ll go to the shop and try them out before buying. It’s also cheap. Ouch, that hurts.” Tang Beibei frowned.

Jiang Jingchen massaged her knees hard for a while before applying blood circulation ointment on them. After washing his hands, he held her in his arms.

“I’ll go with you. If your legs still hurt tomorrow, skip dance practice.”

“No, I must still go. If 1 don’t train for a day, 1 won’t be able to keep up with the class.”

Jiang Jingchen sighed helplessly. “Dancing is important, but your legs are more important.”

“It’s okay. It’s just a fall. I used to fall a lot in the past.”

Her nonchalant look angered Jiang Jingchen.

“Silly Beibei, you fell often in the past because no one cared about you. Now I feel pain when 1 see you in pain. Be good, rest for a day tomorrow. I’ll bring you to buy kneepads.”

Hearing his gentle voice, Tang Beibei couldn’t care less about his lie and leaned into his embrace.

“Then we’ll see what class it is tomorrow. If there are a lot of jumping movements, 1 won’t join.”

Wen Nan was extremely jealous when he saw Tang Beibei being so intimate with the man like she didn’t care about his lie.

Why should Tang Beibei get his affection?

In terms of status, education, appearance, and upbringing, how could Tang Beibei compare to her?

But why didn’t Jiang Jingchen see her instead of giving all his affection to Tang Beibei?
