The next day, Tang Beibei rushed to the bathroom when she got up.

However, she saw a man sitting on the toilet and quickly covered her eyes in shock and embarrassment.

“Oh, you. What are you doing here?”

The man on the toilet was very calm. He even raised his eyebrows in amusement.

“My dear wife, where else should I go to the toilet?”

Tang Beibei couldn’t argue with that so she went to the toilet downstairs. When she went upstairs again, she thought about the dream she had last night.

She dreamed that she had without inhibition hugged Jiang Jingchen, touched him, hugged him, and even… She even asked to be kissed.

Argh… She was going crazy!

Tang Beibei scratched her head in embarrassment and messed up her hair in the process. Instead of studying hard, she was having an erotic dream about her husband!

Her husband couldn’t feel anything when his legs were scalded by hot water. His body part there surely wouldn’t work.

Since she had already married him, she must accept the reality that her husband was impotent and couldn’t do anything with her. They could at most kiss and hug.

Tang Beibei psyched herself up before she went back to the bedroom. She saw that the man had already washed up and was sitting in the wheelchair, smiling at her.

“What’s bothering you so much that your hair is all messed up?”

Tang Beibei shrugged it off. She scratched her head again and explained with a smile, “It’s my bed head. I haven’t washed up yet.”

She then went to the bathroom to wash up. She picked up her toothbrush, looked in the mirror and screamed in shock.

“Oh my God, so ugly!”

Her messy hair looked like a bird’s nest!

No wonder the man had commented that her hair was messy.

When Tang Beibei thought about how she had appeared in front of the man looking like that, she covered her face, hoping to find a place to bury herself.

The man heard the woman’s scream but he smiled happily. She was acting all silly early in the morning. It was rather cute.

When Tang Beibei came out of the bathroom, her hair had been combed but she was too embarrassed to look at him.

She told him sternly, “That wasn’t me just now. It was my identical twin. It wasn’t me at all!”

Jiang Jingchen nodded supportively. “Oh, she’s your twin sister. She looks so much like you.”

“Then, the woman who slept in my arms, hugged and kissed me, who couldn’t be pushed away, is also your twin sister?”

“…!!!”

Tang Beibei went crazy and couldn’t pretend anymore. She covered her face with her clothes and pretended not to hear anything.

Suddenly, she thought of something and asked, “Hubby, wasn’t I doing my homework last night? How did I fall asleep in bed?”

“…”

Jiang Jingchen was stunned momentarily. That was an excellent question.

He coughed a few times and said, “You walked back to the bedroom by yourself. You lay in bed and refused to take a shower. Don’t you remember?”

“Me, by myself?”

Jiang Jingchen considered the reason and said, “You fell asleep on the desk. Maybe you sleepwalked and came back to the bedroom.”

“Sleepwalk?”

Tang Beibei wanted to scratch her head again. How did she not know that she sleepwalked?

Seeing that she didn’t believe him, Jiang Jingchen didn’t want to expose the fact that he wasn’t disabled. So, he explained quickly, “Perhaps, when you hugged and kissed me, you were sleepwalking too.”

“Right!”

Tang Beibei nodded immediately. “Definitely. How can I be so horny and take advantage of you?”

She patted her chest guiltily when she said that. And then she covered her face with her clothes and ran into the bathroom.

“…”

Jiang Jingchen, who knew the truth, saw through that but didn’t say anything.

…

Tang Beibei went to school.

The moment she sat down in the classroom, Ruan Qi sat beside her and grabbed her arm.

“Hey, Beibei, the sickly husband of yours is the Rong family throwing you into the fire pit. You must find a way to divorce him and get out.”

Tang Beibei scrunched up her face and said, “Qiqi, my husband heard everything you said yesterday. Didn’t I tell you not to talk bad about my husband?”

Ruan Qi was shocked. “He heard everything?”

Afraid that she had caused Tang Beibei trouble, Ruan Qi asked quickly, “Did he get angry when he heard what I said? Did he throw a tantrum at you?”

“No, he’s very well-tempered,” Tang Beibei emphasized.

Ruan Qi sighed. “So what if he’s very well-tempered? He’s a cripple and can’t really give you the joy of being a woman. You’re still so young. If he’s lucky and his illness drags on, your whole life would be in his hands.”

Although Ruan Qi’s words were mean, they were the truth.

Tang Beibei laughed. “It’s not ‘would’. My life was in his hands the moment I married him. But he’s good to me, and I’m grateful, so I won’t leave him.”

“But you…”

“Qiqi, this is my choice, and I won’t regret it. Don’t say anymore, and don’t put me and Lu Fan together. I can be friends with him, but I will never date him.”

Tang Beibei comforted her good friend and continued with a smile, “Qiqi, you can do it! Win over your Prince Charming!”

“…” Ruan Qi rolled her eyes.

Her best friend was good in her studies, but when it came to love, she was as dense as a rock.

“My Prince Charming can only be admired from afar. It’s impossible between me and him.”

“However, I’ve heard some rumors about you. They say that you hooked up with a rich man for money and shamelessly seduced senior Lu Fan.” Ruan Qi said with an angry face, as if she was going to beat up everyone who spread the rumor.

Tang Beibei frowned. “Who said that? Nonsense!”

“Of course, I know that it’s nonsense, so I taught the person who told me a lesson. But that person said that someone else told her. I wonder who was so free to start such rumors about you.”

Tang Beibei immediately thought of Rong Chan’er and Lu Linlin and chuckled.

“I can’t care about those people. I need to finish the task Professor Chen gave me.”

She was very busy and didn’t want to waste time on such trivial matters.

After class, Tang Beibei ran to the computer lab to continue her translation work. When she was reading the article, she saw some information about leg injuries that affected other bodily functions. She paid more attention to them out of curiosity.

As long as there were similarities with her husband, she would immediately take notes.

Suddenly, someone knocked on her workstation. She looked up and saw Lu Fan.

“I have something to say to you. Come out.”

Tang Beibei was reluctant to put down her pen and asked in confusion, “Senior Lu Fan, if you have something to say, just say it. I’m busy.”

Lu Fan stared at her and looked at the document she was reading. His face darkened.

“This is very important, Tang Beibei. And the computer lab will be closed soon.”

The school’s computer lab was not open at lunchtime. It was only open during class hours.

Tang Beibei checked the time. Indeed, the computer lab would be closed in a few minutes. She quickly clicked on the save button, packed her things, and got up.

She followed Lu Fan out of the classroom building. Just as she was about to say something, Lu Fan said, “Let’s have lunch together. We’ll talk over lunch.”

“Okay.”

Noticing Lu Fan’s dark face, Tang Beibei didn’t want to argue with him.

What matter could upset him so much?

Tang Beibei thought and thought. She didn’t do anything wrong, so she shouldn’t be afraid of ghosts. Besides, Lu Fan wasn’t a ghost.

Could it be that senior Lu Fan wanted to give her wedding money after hearing about her marriage since they were friends?
