Xu Wan met a man from her industry at a matchmaking party. Two days later, they got their marriage certificate.
She thought she had married an unremarkable corporate legal counsel.
Afte...
"Your dad hit you?" Xu Wan's voice trembled slightly. "Is he out of his mind?! Your mom knew you had a leg injury but she wouldn't lay a hand on you, but your dad just went straight for your leg?! Is he afraid your leg will heal too quickly, or is he afraid you won't be crippled?!"
Xu Wan could accept Jiang Detian hitting Jiang Tingzhou's upper body, but she couldn't accept him hitting his legs.
The man's leg was already injured, and after surgery, he had to go through a long rehabilitation process before he could walk like a normal person.
It's just like walking.
It's probably unlikely that he'll be able to run and jump like an ordinary person again.
In this situation, Jiang Detian actually hit Jiang Tingzhou's leg.
Jiang Tingzhou first put on the pajamas he had taken out earlier, and then took his wife's hand, wanting her to sit on his lap.
"No." Xu Wan shook her head. "You're injured there."
"It's okay, it doesn't hurt."
"No, I won't. I'll push you to the bedroom."
Xu Wan harbored resentment towards Jiang Detian, but considering that he was Jiang Tingzhou's father, she couldn't say anything.
Xu Wan pushed Jiang Tingzhou to the bathroom in the master bedroom, and after washing up with the man, she pushed him back to the bedroom and helped him to bed.
After Jiang Tingzhou lay down on the bed, Xu Wan also lay down, facing the wall, without saying a word.
Jiang Tingzhou leaned closer, put his arm around the woman's waist, kissed her hair, and said, "Alright, don't be angry anymore. I've explained. I did something so outrageous, it's not right for me to get a few slaps."
"But he can't hit your leg!"
Xu Wan still had her back to the man.
“My dad probably didn’t know I had surgery. He probably thought I had no feeling in my leg, which is why he had the injection.”
As Jiang Tingzhou spoke, his fingers lifted the hem of the woman's thin nightgown, his fingertips groping and wandering.
He then lowered his head and kissed the back of the woman's neck, asking, "What's wrong? Are you ignoring me because of my dad?"
“It’s not because your dad is ignoring you, it’s because you got hurt and didn’t tell me.”
Xu Wan then revealed her true thoughts.
She was indeed angry with Jiang Detian, but what angered her even more was that the man, who had been beaten so badly, had tried to cover it up.
If she hadn't realized what was happening and gone into the dressing room, she probably wouldn't have discovered the man's injury for a long time.
Jiang Tingzhou could move his legs a little. He lifted his legs and encircled the woman's legs, completely trapping her within his own territory. As he unbuttoned her clothes, he said, "I'm sorry, I knew you would feel sorry for me, that's why I didn't want to tell you."
"But I am your wife. You should have told me if you were injured."
Xu Wan turned around and looked at the man's face so close to hers. "I won't talk about the years when you lost your memory. Later, you remembered everything and came to Beicheng. You clearly saw me, but you didn't want to tell me your identity because of your leg injury. After I exposed you, you apologized to me. Now your leg has been injured, and you're hiding it from me again. When I found out, you apologized to me again. I don't want your apology. I want you to be completely open with me."
Xu Wan hugged the man's waist, leaning completely against him, and said earnestly, "I hope that you will always be safe and sound, free from illness and disaster, from now on."
"Okay." Jiang Tingzhou lowered his head to kiss the top of the woman's head. "Then I promise you this time, I will definitely give you everything from now on."
Xu Wan reached out and fastened the buttons that the man had unbuttoned back on. "I'm not in the mood today, I'm not doing it."
Jiang Tingzhou looked at the woman, his face showing obvious disappointment, but he still pulled his arm around her legs away and said "Goodnight" again.
When she got close to him, Xu Wan had already sensed the change in the man.
But she was indeed angry because of what had just happened.
Jiang Tingzhou used to be able to take a shower and resolve his issues, but now that he has difficulty walking, he has to deal with his emotions on his own.
The room was very quiet.
Xu Wan looked at the man whose pajama bottoms looked strange and who was trying hard to close his eyes and remain calm. She felt that he was both pitiful and funny.
After looking at it for a long time, he finally asked, "Then tell me, does your leg still hurt?"
