Transmigration Of An Assassin

Leisure

The days went by leisurely as Tang Shushui's due date approached. Jiang Yanwei went to find three midwives to stay at the house with his wife, so all Tang Shushui did was listen to the midwives and follow their instructions. Even though he missed working at the restaurant and his boutique opening had to once again be postponed, he was looking forward to having his baby.

"Honey, what are you making?" Jiang Yanwei said as he made his way into the room. Tang Shushui who was sitting on a rocking chair by the opened sliding door, turned to look at him.  Since he had not been busy for some time, he took his time admiring his husband, and he had to say that, his husband was really handsome.

When he first met his husband, his skin was damaged, with many bad sunburn patches, his face sunken, and his hair dry and brittle. But now he was practically shining. His skin had a healthy tan color, his hair black and silky, sharp eyebrows that were neatly trimmed, and his body had a healthy weight. His husband had major changes physically, and mentally.

Though his husband took care of him when he first crossed over, he could tell that it was for the baby. His husband had the mentality of a man from ancient China, and that scared him. So all he did was try hard to make both his husband and family love him genuinely, and he did not know when, but his husband had seen through him. His husband was not afraid of slowly breaking down wall after wall to get to know the real him, and even after knowing the real him his husband did not back down. He wanted to tell his husband the truth about himself, but he was still a little scared. What would happen if his husband knew that he was a whole other person? He couldn't stop the tears from coming out as he thought about that.

"Honey? Are you okay? What happened?" Jiang Yanwei was immediately alerted, and hurried over to his wife, questioning him in a worried tone.

"B-baby do you love me?" Tang Shushui sobbed as he grabbed Jiang Yanwei's clothes.

"Is that even a question? Of course, I love you." Jiang Yanwei responded lovingly.

"What do you love about me?" Tang Shushui bawled. Yes, what could Jiang Yanwei possibly love about him? Maybe he was mistaken.

"If I love you, then I won't pick and choose what I love about you, because if I decided to love you, then all of you will be loved by me. Because I love you. And I love you for being you. I love your flaws, your insecurities, your laugh, your smile, the little face you make when you see onions, the love that overflows in your eyes when you see your family, and the way you call me baby, I love and embrace all of those because I love you, and I always will." Jiang Yanwei confessed before he pulled Tang Shushui into his arms, not letting him see the tears that started accumulating in his eyes. Every time he thought about the things Tang Shushui went through before he came here his eyes gets sore. Because he knew these experiences must've been soul-breaking for him to still be stuck in the past shadows of his hurt.

"You really don't hate anything about me?" Tang Shushu sobbed out into his shoulders, he could not believe it, was it really possible for his husband to love everything about him?

"Well there's one thing I don't like when it comes to you but I know it'll just take some time," Jiang Yanwei said, as he pulled away from the hug, to look at his now tear-stained face wife.

"W-what is I-I can fix it right now," Tang Shushui said frantically.

"Babe, your doing it right now. It's the negative thoughts about yourself and thinking that you need to be changed to be loved. I want you to be comfortable being you, and being loved by being you, and not worrying about changing a thing." Jiang Yanwei said before pecking him on the lips.

"Baby!" That was all Tang Shushui managed to say before he burst into tears. 

"I would also like to have these conversations more often honey. I like communicating my thoughts with you instead of just bottling them up and I would love it if you do the same. And even if you can't you don't need to rush. You can just tell that you need to tell me something but haven't found the words yet. I will wait for you until you can say it, but just don't keep everything that's hard to yourself, okay?" Jiang Yanwei said as he stroked his wife's hair.

"Okay," Tang Shushui agreed in a mutter.

"Okay, now it's time for your afternoon nap," Jiang Yanwei said, as he directly carried Tang Shushui to the bed.

"I don't want to!" Tang Shushui responded in a spoiled manner, which Jiang Yanwei knew meant that his mood swings were about to kick in.

"Okay, then we can talk while laying down," Jiang Yanwei suggested.

"What can we possibly talk about for hours," Tang Shushui asked.

"How much I love you," Jiang Yanwei said as he pecked him on the lips.

"Hubby-" Was all Tang Shushui managed to say before he was cut off ruthlessly.

"Don't even try, your eighth month pregnant," Jiang Yanwei said. He knew exactly was his wife meant, and he was definitely not going to fall for it.

"Babe!" Tang Shushui couldn't help but complain.

"I am right here, why are you yelling?" Jiang Yanwei teased.

"I hate you," Tang Shushui grumbled.

"And I love you," Jiang Yanwei responded before he bombarded his face with kisses.

At this time Tang Shushui couldn't help but be grateful. He went through hell and back in his past life but this life was simply a haven for him. And he wanted it to last forever. He wanted to always had his family by his side, and to always had this loving husband accompany him forever.
