Transmigrated as the Chongxi Wife of a Critically Ill Young Lady - Chapter 21
Chapter 21
Cen Xia forced Ji Wanqing to drink half a cup of pear water and several spoonfuls of dough drop soup in this manner. Less than two minutes later, she leaned into her ear and asked.
“Sister, do you need to go to the bathroom?”
Ji Wanqing shook her head.
Cen Xia looked at her, her eyes curving into a smile. She said, “No, Sister, you do!”
Ji Wanqing didn’t understand what she meant. She felt like this person was up to something mischievous, but after all that struggling, she really didn’t have the energy to argue with her. Her long eyelashes fell, covering her tired eyes, and she closed them for a short nap.
Cen Xia propped her hands on the side of the bed and stared at her for a while.
Ji Wanqing could vaguely feel her gaze, and her eyelids twitched.
Cen Xia stood up, moved a little to her side, and squatted down. She put one hand under Ji Wanqing’s blanket and said, “Let me see if Sister needs to go to the bathroom.” Then, she placed her hand on Ji Wanqing’s abdomen and lightly grabbed it through her clothes.
Ji Wanqing’s body trembled violently. One hand instinctively gripped the bedsheet. She opened her eyes, looked down at her, and her eyes were filled with panic.
Cen Xia smiled. “Let’s get some exercise. You’ll want to go after some exercise. I’ll help you, Sister!” She gently massaged her lower abdomen with her hand.
Ji Wanqing couldn’t speak and just tightly gripped the bedsheet.
Cen Xia said, “How about this, Sister? Does this feel a little more comfortable? Do you need to go to the bathroom?”
Ji Wanqing felt like her heart was about to stop. Since she was a child, she had never had any physical contact with anyone. Although there were clothes between them, the position and pressure she chose made it unbearable for her.
Cen Xia pressed for a while and then moved her hand down a little, kneading her skinny legs. “I’ll also press Sister’s legs. If you lie still for a long time, your muscles will atrophy!”
Ji Wanqing was extremely sensitive. The places where her fingertips touched were like an electric current. It made her whole body tremble violently. The corner of the blanket she was gripping in her hand was already wrinkled. She bit her lip, enduring the pain. In a short while, the corners of her eyes were wet. She was crying. She was actually crying because of her own sensitivity.
Shanqing jumped out of who knows where and ran to her feet to bite her pant leg.
Cen Xia said, “Qingqing, don’t mess around. Go play somewhere else. I’m massaging Sister’s leg muscles. Don’t disturb me!”
Shanqing seemed to not understand human language. No, it didn’t understand human language. It just saw Cen Xia bullying her, and Ji Wanqing’s body was trembling. It didn’t want her to be so uncomfortable, so it pounced on her, put its front paws on Cen Xia’s back, and pulled forward like it was using a scratching post.
Cen Xia said, “You little rascal, if you don’t get down, I’m going to spank you!”
Shanqing used its back legs to jump directly onto her shoulder and meowed at her.
Cen Xia turned her head and glared at it. “What?”
Shanqing’s ears flattened. It wagged its tail and bit her ear, just not letting her bully Ji Wanqing.
Its teeth were sharp and strong. Cen Xia winced in pain. She got angry and pulled the little creature off her shoulder and began to rough it up in her arms. “You think I can’t discipline you, huh? I’ll show you for pulling on my clothes, for meowing at me, for biting my ear!”
She pulled on the soft flesh on its belly. As she was pulling, she lowered her head and took a big sniff of its neck. “You think I can’t discipline you…”
At this moment, a cold electronic voice popped up.
Ding. Host Cen Xia, mission target’s experience is not good. Happiness value -5.
Happiness value -5?
Cen Xia’s action of pulling its fur paused. She asked the system a soul-searching question. “Not a good experience. Why?”
The main attack mode has been activated. It means you’re not good enough, Host!
After the system said that, it immediately disappeared. Cen Xia came to her senses and kept chasing it with questions. “I’m not good enough! What do you mean I’m not good enough! Explain yourself! What do you mean I’m not good enough!”
…
Ji Wanqing’s body had relaxed a bit. She was lying there, covered in cold sweat. Her pale face had a slight hint of pink. Her ear tips and the corners of her eyes were also pink. She was staring at Cen Xia with a shy expression.
The system’s words were still replaying in her ears. Cen Xia looked at her so fragile and felt even more unwilling to accept it. She stood up abruptly and pounced on her, planting a kiss on Ji Wanqing’s face as if to vent her anger.
Good experience, happiness value +1.
When Cen Xia heard this, she lowered her head again and quickly kissed Ji Wanqing on the other cheek. She asked the system, “Am I good enough now?”
System: …
Cen Xia felt her face was burning, and her head was dizzy. Her heart was also beating much faster than usual. She averted her gaze, not daring to look directly into Ji Wanqing’s eyes.
Ji Wanqing lay on the sickbed like a cooked little shrimp. In a moment, she struggled to get up.
Cen Xia noticed her movement, and the panic in her heart subsided a little. She quickly leaned over and asked, “Sister, what’s wrong? Tell me if you’re not feeling well.”
Ji Wanqing ignored her and struggled by herself, but she had no strength in her body and soon couldn’t move anymore. She closed her eyes. After several seconds, she raised her hand.
—Bathroom!
Cen Xia saw the gesture and felt greatly encouraged. She happily jumped up. Her clear eyes looked at Ji Wanqing. “Sister, you want to go to the bathroom. You finally want to go to the bathroom!”
Ji Wanqing glared at her.
Cen Xia pushed the wheelchair over with both hands, her feet moving as if they were oiled. She placed the wheelchair by the bed and carefully helped Ji Wanqing lean on her shoulder.
Ji Wanqing raised her hand and wrapped her arm that wasn’t on the IV around her neck. She used a little bit of force with her wrist to lift her onto the wheelchair. She carried the IV bottle with one hand and pushed the wheelchair with the other.
This was the first time Ji Wanqing had gotten out of bed in a long time.
She pushed her to the bathroom and helped her onto the toilet. Ji Wanqing was shy and motioned for her to turn around with her eyes.
Cen Xia held the IV bottle and stood with her back to her. A few seconds later, she secretly glanced back and saw that Ji Wanqing was ready. Her silly head got excited, and to cheer her on, she naturally started whistling.
“Shh shh shh…”
Ji Wanqing: …
At that moment, she went crazy. She thought, Why did God arrange for an idiot to be her wife?
After whistling for a while, Cen Xia started to ask, “Sister, did you pee yet? Does it feel better now?”
Ji Wanqing: !!!
If she could speak at this moment, she would definitely say, “Shut up!”
Ji Wanqing sat there for a few minutes. With her divine encouragement, she actually managed to go to the bathroom. She put on her clothes and rested for a while before reaching out and tugging on Cen Xia’s skirt.
Cen Xia turned around and said, “Sister, are you done peeing?”
Ji Wanqing glared at her, her eyes glancing at the wheelchair.
Cen Xia lifted her onto the wheelchair. She then knelt beside the toilet and carefully and seriously observed. When she saw the yellow liquid inside, she was as happy as if she had found a pile of gold. She cheered at the toilet, “Wow, Sister, it’s real! You’re amazing!”
Ji Wanqing reached out her arm and tried to pull her ear. Her wrist had no strength, so the force was very light.
Cen Xia was pulled away from the toilet by her.
Ji Wanqing glared at her. Cen Xia seemed to be oblivious. Her mind was still immersed in the excitement from before.
She looked into her eyes, suddenly pounced on her, and pulled her into her arms, repeating over and over again, “Sister, our efforts these past few days were not in vain. You can go to the bathroom now. I’m so happy…”
Ji Wanqing was very angry at first, but at this moment, she was holding her, and she was as happy as a child because she went to the bathroom, repeating the joy in her heart. Her tears streamed down her cheeks, little by little, falling onto her shoulder, wetting her clothes.
Cen Xia was still babbling. “Sister will get better soon. All our efforts were not in vain. I’m so happy, so happy…”
In the bathroom, the two girls hugged each other. One was excited beyond words, and the other was in tears. But at this moment, their hearts were both warm.
A moment later, the little ragdoll cat was scratching at the door outside. Its paws scraped against the frosted glass, making a piercing sound. It was also meowing continuously, afraid that something might happen if its two owners stayed inside for too long.
After its persistent scratching, Cen Xia finally let go of Ji Wanqing. She looked at her red and swollen eyes and reached out to wipe her tears. Ji Wanqing dodged and then raised her hand.
—You didn’t wash your hands. Don’t touch me!
Cen Xia: …
The young lady loves to be clean. It was her being thoughtless. She took her to the sink and washed her hands. Ji Wanqing looked at herself in the mirror and was stunned for a second.
The little ragdoll cat was still scratching at the door. Cen Xia said, “Sister, let’s go out. Shanqing is so worried!”
The two of them opened the door. The little creature ran around Ji Wanqing’s feet, wagging its tail happily. The small thing ran to the front and kept turning back to look at them.
Cen Xia said, “Sister, do you want to play with Shanqing for a while?”
Ji Wanqing nodded.
Shanqing ran to the window, raised its front paws, and tapped on the window glass twice. Then it turned its head and meowed at its two owners.
Cen Xia pushed Ji Wanqing over. Shanqing was focused on the glass outside, its whiskers twitching and a low growl coming from its throat.
The two of them looked over and saw two birds kissing on a tree. Shanqing’s whiskers twitched even more. Cen Xia smiled. She looked at Ji Wanqing and said, “Sister, the weather is so nice today. Look at those two birds, so romantic!”
Ji Wanqing looked at the two birds outside and then at the little creature. She thought for a moment and then raised her hand.
—They are all Shanqing’s prey!
Cen Xia: …
She rolled her eyes and grumbled, “Birds are so cute. You really are something, Sister!”
Ji Wanqing’s lips slightly curved. A weak smile appeared on her pale face. Her messy bangs fell on the side of her face. They were illuminated by the sunlight from the window, like a slender seedling that hadn’t seen fresh air for a long time.
Cen Xia raised her hand, tucked her bangs behind her ear, tilted her head, and looked at her. She said, “Then, Sister, tell me, whose prey are you, huh?”
Ji Wanqing looked away. She moved the hand with the IV drip onto the armrest of the wheelchair and patted her lap a few times, signaling for Shanqing to come up.
Shanqing jumped up and stepped on her two legs. It had gotten fatter and bigger in the past two days. Ji Wanqing’s legs were too thin, and she couldn’t support the weight. She was shaking a lot. Shanqing couldn’t stand still, so it immediately knelt down and sat.
She stroked its fur on its back. Her movements were very light. Shanqing flopped its head over and meowed at her.
Cen Xia started to get jealous again. She said, “Sister, you like it, but you don’t like me!”
Ji Wanqing reached out and motioned for her to lower her head. Cen Xia half-knelt, held the IV bottle with one hand, and put her head on Ji Wanqing’s lap, side by side with Shanqing. Ji Wanqing gently stroked her, and her eyes squinted as she looked at her.
The little cat tilted its head again and pushed against Cen Xia’s face with its paws, trying to push her away. It also purred affectionately.
Ji Wanqing turned her hand to stroke it. Cen Xia laughed and said, “Sister, you’re so biased. You’re stroking it more than me!”
She raised her hand.
—It purrs, you don’t!
Cen Xia’s arm holding the IV bottle was a little sore. She stood up and patted Shanqing’s butt. “Get down!”
The little creature bared its teeth at her and didn’t move.
The two women and one cat were rarely so harmonious. A moment later, Tang Shaoyun knocked on the door.
Cen Xia hung the IV bottle on the coat rack and ran to open the door.
Tang Shaoyun stood outside and didn’t come in. He looked a little nervous. He said, “Miss Cen, I’m going back to the company.”
Cen Xia said, “Did something happen?”
Tang Shaoyun nodded. He said, “Check Weibo!”
Cen Xia opened her phone and glanced at it. The news on the hot search made her blood pressure spike.
