Transmigrated as the Chongxi Wife of a Critically Ill Young Lady - Chapter 69

Chapter 69

Jiwanching ultimately did not go to see her client. First, she couldn’t bear to be apart for a second, and second, she really didn’t have the strength. The long period of longing had only intensified their desire for each other’s bodies.

For dinner, Cen Xia went to the kitchen to make dough drop soup for her. Jiwanching followed her around. When Cen Xia wasn’t paying attention, she hugged her from behind and clung to her like a conjoined twin.

Cen Xia felt that her healed sister was even more clingy than before.

Jiwanching canceled all her work and performances for the next few days. She had planned to retire, but Cen Xia managed to talk her out of it.

The next day, she took her to a newly built house in the suburbs. The environment was wonderful. The smart home design was created by an Internet home furnishing company that was a joint venture between the Jiang family and Zhicheng.

The Jiang family started with smart hardware, and Zhicheng Technology focused on online platforms. The two strong companies joined forces to create an elite team. This house in the suburbs was the team’s first project, and it was a great success.

Jiwanching was eager to take Cen Xia inside. Everywhere they went, there was technology. Cen Xia felt like she had walked into the future.

Just as she was standing there, stunned and at a loss, Jiwanching took out a pair of smart rings and proposed to her.

She knelt on one knee and, without any flowery language, said, “The last time, at Moshan No. 1, you said Uncle Liu’s house was so big and beautiful, and you asked me if you’d be kept to work off the debt if you got their floor dirty.”

“At that time, I thought that as soon as I got better, I would work hard to make money and get a bigger house for Xiaxia. In the past six months, I’ve had many concerts and made a lot of money. I’ve gotten a bigger house for you. Do you like it, Xiaxia?”

Cen Xia’s vision was blurred by tears. She bit her lip and nodded. “I like it!”

Jiwanching said, “Every item here is a product developed by our own company. There will be more in the future. Sister will work very hard to take care of you, Xiaxia, and this home. Don’t leave, Xiaxia. Will you stay?”

Her words always hit a sensitive spot. Cen Xia pulled her up and held her tightly. “Sister, Xiaxia isn’t leaving. Xiaxia wants to be with you for the rest of her life. I won’t leave you, Sister, except for death.”

Jiwanching felt safe and secure being hugged so tightly.

The weather was getting warmer, and they weren’t wearing thick clothes. Their tears seeped through their clothes and onto their chests, bringing a little warmth. After a while, she fluttered in her arms.

Cen Xia loosened her arms.

Jiwanching looked up, her phoenix eyes fixed on her. “But Xiaxia, you haven’t accepted my ring yet.”

Cen Xia couldn’t help but kiss her reddened eyes.

The kiss started gently and became passionate. When it was over, Jiwanching felt a little breathless, her body weak, and her vision hazy. But she still looked at her. “Xiaxia, you haven’t said yes yet.”

Cen Xia couldn’t help but smile, her dimples showing. She reached out her hand. “Xiaxia says yes, Sister.”

Jiwanching held the ring and carefully placed it on her finger, kissing her fingertips. Then she gave the other one to Cen Xia.

Cen Xia put it on her finger and kissed her fingertips. “Thank you, Sister. Xiaxia is very happy.”

Jiwanching’s cold, thin face was wrapped in gentleness and love. She raised her hand, poked her dimple, and said, “Thank you too, Xiaxia, for giving me the best love in the world.”

The two of them hugged each other again. This time, they didn’t do anything but hold each other quietly, feeling each other’s heartbeats and smelling each other’s scents…

A week later, they moved into the new house. For their housewarming party, Jiwanching invited everyone who had helped them. Cen Xia also invited the college students who had worked part-time at their house. There were people of all ages.

Zhang Yi came with his wife to get an autograph. Even Yan Shuang, who didn’t like to socialize, came to argue with Tang Shaoyun. The house was unprecedentedly lively. After a whole afternoon, they finally sent the uncles and aunts off, leaving only a few close friends. They set up a small table to play cards and chat.

Jiang He had a little to drink. As she got drunk, her eyes turned red. She asked Cen Xia, “Why isn’t my Xiaxia back yet? I don’t believe she never showed up. You must have hidden her. You must have!”

The dinner table fell silent. Everyone’s eyes were on Cen Xia.

Jiang He staggered to Cen Xia, grabbed her hand, and said with tear-filled eyes, “Cen Xia, I’ll give you my body. Please let her out. I miss her. I want to see her, even if it’s just for a moment. I’ll be content.”

Si Jing ran over to stop her, but she was pushed away.

Jiwanching stepped in front of Cen Xia. “Jiang He, don’t be like this!”

Jiang He fiercely wiped away her tears with the back of her hand and looked at her. “General Manager Ji, you must be the one who least wants her to come back, aren’t you?”

Jiwanching pursed her lips and said nothing.

Jiang He suddenly raised her hand, grabbed the collar of her shirt, and raised her voice. “Am I right, Jiwanching?!”

Cen Xia got anxious and pulled her away from Jiwanching. “Jiang He!”

Jiang He lost her footing and staggered back a few steps. Si Jing caught her.

Their eyes met. Jiang He’s eyes were filled with endless longing.

Cen Xia took a deep breath, wanting to tell her the truth. Jiwanching grabbed her wrist and shook her head hard.

She finally looked away from Jiang He and looked at Si Jing. “Jiang He is drunk.”

Si Jing said, “I’m sorry for the trouble. I’ll take her back to rest.”

Cen Xia nodded.

Si Jing reached out to help her. Jiang He then belatedly realized her gaffe and didn’t make a scene. She obediently followed Si Jing out.

The good atmosphere was broken. Everyone said a few words of comfort and then left.

After a quick tidy-up, Cen Xia took Jiwanching downstairs for a walk. She had wanted to tell Jiang He the truth for a long time, but Jiwanching had always strongly objected.

The two of them snuggled on a bench. Cen Xia discussed, “Sister, maybe we should tell General Manager Jiang. It really breaks my heart to see her like that every time.”

Jiwanching’s face was pressed against her chest. Her voice was weak but firm. “Xiaxia, don’t tell her. Let her hate us. She’s only 25.”

Cen Xia was stunned.

Jiwanching said, “Once, when we were giving a report in the exhibition hall, she was presenting something on stage. A file wasn’t uploaded in the middle of it. I was looking for it on her computer and accidentally found a suicide note.”

…

Night fell, and the lights reflected on the lake, rippling in the wind. Cen Xia hugged Jiwanching and told her the details of the original host’s suicide. A thud was heard behind them. The two turned around.

Jiang He was on her knees on the ground, smelling of alcohol.

Cen Xia went over to help her. Jiwanching also went to help.

She looked up at them, her lips twitching slightly. Her voice, apart from being a little hoarse from the hangover, sounded normal. “Jiwanching, Cen Xia, I didn’t leave. I’ve been lurking around you two, monitoring you. I didn’t leave!”

The two of them looked at each other and felt relieved.

Cen Xia said, “Sister, she must have snuck back here by herself. Let’s take her to the guest room!”

She and Jiwanching each helped her and carried her back to the room, placing her on the bed.

Jiang He was dead drunk. Cen Xia took off her shoes, and Jiwanching got a hot towel to wipe her face. After a lot of fuss, they finally settled her down.

They couldn’t leave her alone in the room tonight. Jiwanching looked at her. Cen Xia tidied up the sofa, and the two of them planned to make do for the night on the sofa.

A while later, Jiang He murmured in her sleep, “Xiaxia, my Xiaxia is gone…”

Her voice was too low. Jiwanching didn’t hear her clearly. She leaned closer and heard her say, “They think I’m drunk, but I heard everything they said. Xiaxia is really gone. Why am I still alive?”

Jiwanching froze. After a few seconds, she called Cen Xia’s name.

Cen Xia stopped what she was doing and walked over, finding Jiwanching standing there with a pale face. She brought her into her arms. “What’s wrong, Sister?”

Jiwanching was held by her. Her anxious heart finally found a place to rest. She took a breath and gently raised her hand.

Xiaxia, she knows everything. What do we do?

Cen Xia looked at her hand gestures. She then looked at the person on the bed.

Jiang He didn’t say anything crazy again. Large tears just rolled down her face, wetting the pillow.

That night, they barely slept. But Jiang He didn’t cause any more trouble. She slept very well and very quietly. The next morning, she woke up at her usual time for work.

When she saw Jiwanching standing by the bed, her mind went blank. She then realized she was at the Ji family’s house and then displayed her usual bright demeanor.

She rubbed her forehead. “Oops, General Manager Ji, I’m sorry. I had a little too much fun last night and drank too much. I didn’t interrupt anything, did I?”

Jiwanching looked at her in silence. Jiang He’s bright smile froze for a moment. Just then, Cen Xia came in with breakfast.

Jiang He quickly changed the subject, looking at the three bowls of dough drop soup. “Wow, there’s even breakfast! This is a good deal!”

Under Jiwanching’s intense gaze, she tried to get out of bed to eat, but as soon as her foot touched the ground, she fell back down. She was a little annoyed and tried to get up, but she had no strength in her body.

Jiwanching reached out to help her. Cen Xia also came over.

She still tried to hide her true feelings. “Your wine is really strong! I’ll call Assistant Si and have her come pick me up!”

Jiwanching called her name. “Jiang He.”

She looked up at her.

Jiwanching said, “Don’t keep your sadness bottled up. I know you weren’t drunk last night.”

Jiang He’s body stiffened. Tears welled up in her eyes. After a long while, she said with a trembling voice, “Jiwanching, I’m fine. Thank you. Thank you both!”

Jiwanching reached out to help her, but her arm had no strength. Cen Xia carried her back to the bed.

Jiang He looked at her and asked, “Cen Xia, can you show me what she looked like when she died? I want to see her, even if it’s just for a moment.”

Last night, she heard them say that as a reward, the system had copied that memory and given it to Cen Xia. If Jiang He ever bothered her, she could use it as evidence.

At her earnest request, Cen Xia finally gave her the memory. Jiang He fainted after watching it. After that, she was sent to the hospital.

When Jiang Yiye rushed over, she was already awake. Seeing her grandpa with a head full of white hair and a suit soaked in sweat, standing by the bed and scolding himself, Jiang He couldn’t hold it in and cried loudly.

In the days that followed, Jiang Yiye stayed by her side. Si Jing came to see her several times a day. Jiwanching and Cen Xia also often came to keep her company. With the support of family and friends, Jiang He ultimately chose to stay in this world.

To not disappoint Jiang Yiye, she threw herself into her work. A year later, the Jiang family company was the first to go international, becoming one of the top ten global companies. She also became the youngest and most capable female CEO in the world.

Jiwanching led the Ji family company right behind her. In addition, she was still a diva. In her free time, she would occasionally participate in entertainment events, mostly with her wife, showing off their affection.

Cen Xia relaxed at home, happily being taken care of by Jiwanching. She became the most confident and self-assured housewife in history. However, her cooking skills seemed to have improved even more. As soon as General Manager Jiang got off work, she would go over to their house, turning the couple’s world into a family of three.

On their wedding anniversary, the two booked tickets and went to the seaside. Jiang He got off work on time to get a free meal. When she pushed the door open, no one was home. She asked the smart robot, “Where are they?”

The smart robot played their chat messages out loud.

Cen Xia: “Sister, let’s play for a few more days. I don’t want to see General Manager Jiang, that big third wheel, anymore!”

Jiwanching: “Okay!”

She was furious. She tried to call them, but the line was busy. In a fit of helplessness, she dismantled the smart robot. She took off its arms and legs and hid them in the refrigerator. She even took a picture and posted it on her social media, tagging Cen Xia, Jiwanching, Zhang Yi, and everyone…
