Though paralyzed, still radiantly charming!

Chapter 23: I... I stood up!

Chapter 23: I… I stood up!

It turned out his aunt knew his tastes.

“Ha ha, don’t be shy, Ethan is an adult now.” Scarlett patted his arm lightly, trying to ease the mood, “Being bedridden for so long, I can totally understand if you have certain… needs.”

She spoke with a hint of apology in her eyes, “Sorry, I never really considered these aspects before.”

“I… it’s not that, I…” Ethan, seeing her understanding and encouraging look, felt utterly embarrassed.

From Scarlett’s perspective, seeing Ethan bedridden for so long, her actions seemed somewhat justifiable.

Scarlett sat on the edge of the bed, her legs clad in black stockings crossed casually under her short uniform skirt, the sheer fabric encasing her fair, delicate feet hidden in high heels, exuding the unique allure and charm of a mature woman.

“Dying Wish: I really want my aunt to give me a footjob in sheer black stockings and then have her stockings turn white!”

Looking at his aunt’s sexy high heels, a thought suddenly struck him, and he decided to just come clean with her.

Suddenly, the sexy high heels shifted slightly to the side.

Ethan quickly averted his gaze, a flash of embarrassment crossing his eyes as he met his aunt’s meaningful look. At that moment, he wished he could just disappear.

He wasn’t particularly fixated on feet, but the system’s task had influenced him, and now all he could think about were his aunt’s black silk high heels.

“Ethan, look.” Scarlett, as if nothing was amiss, held up the package and said mysteriously, “Did you know? Those adult product companies in Japan are way ahead of the world. They’ve incorporated technology into every aspect of sexual life!”

“…” Ethan, just recovering from his embarrassment, twitched at the corners of his mouth, looking at his aunt’s serious expression.

Why are you telling me this?

“Humph~” Scarlett grinned proudly, suddenly opening the package, “A fully interactive Fleshlight modeled after a human vagina that connects to a mobile app. Not only can you engage in online PvP, but you can also interact with other people online and make new friends! Impressive, right?”

“???” Ethan’s mouth fell open, his pupils dilating as he stared at the unassuming cylindrical Fleshlight in his aunt’s hand, speechless.

“Hehe~ Like it?” Scarlett chuckled, pulling out her phone, “Look, I’ve already downloaded the app and checked it out. There’s even a leaderboard! With your skills, Ethan, you could definitely break the record!”

“…” Ethan’s mouth twitched uncontrollably as he looked at the rankings, the top record being 6 minutes and 49 seconds.

He had to admit, it stirred a competitive desire within him.

“Thanks…”

“Humph~” Scarlett flicked his forehead, “We’re family, no need for thanks. Shall we try it out now?”

“Ah? Now? Here?” Ethan blinked, seeing the eagerness in Scarlett’s eyes, he suspiciously asked, “Auntie, you seem really keen to watch?”

Scarlett crossed her arms and stood up, “Don’t be silly, I’ll give you some privacy.”

Their relationship was a mix of sisterly and motherly affection, playful like siblings yet caring like a mother.

“Wait.” Ethan set the Fleshlight aside, “Auntie, can we just talk for a bit?”

“Sure.” Scarlett sat down again, crossing her legs, “Whatever’s bothering you, don’t mind my role, just tell me everything.”

Ethan fell silent, his gaze dropping to her swaying slender legs.

He really wanted to say, his trouble was whether she could change her stockings for him.

“That…” Ethan touched his nose, turning his eyes away, “This might be a redundant question, sorry, Auntie… are things not going well with your boyfriend?”

Scarlett fell silent upon hearing this. After a while, she looked at him, “Did Blair tell you something?”

“I…” Ethan felt awkward, unsure how to broach such a topic.

“I’d rather not talk about that…” Scarlett shook her head, then lifted it again with a smile, “Let’s forget about my issues. Don’t you have any troubles you want to share with me, Ethan? It’s been a while since we had a heart-to-heart.”

“Ah, my troubles?” Ethan’s eyes briefly swept over her figure beneath the uniform, his mind a whirlwind of thoughts.

Maybe he should just come clean here.

But no matter what, he’d be seen as a pervert.

Putting himself in her shoes, his aunt would never believe him.

“I…” Ethan looked at his aunt, opening his mouth but finding himself at a loss for words.

“Ding ding ding!”

Suddenly, a ringtone interrupted them.

Scarlett pulled out her phone, her expression complex as she hesitated for three seconds before hanging up.

Ethan, seeing her expression, knew the caller was no ordinary person: “Auntie, was that your…”

“Ding ding ding!”

The phone rang again.

“I need to take this call outside.” Scarlett picked up her phone and stood up, unlocking the hospital room door to leave.

Ethan watched her leave, stunned.

The room fell silent.

About three minutes later, Scarlett stood at the door, her expression calm, “Sorry, Ethan, I need to go out tonight. I’ll be back later.”

“Going out this late?” Ethan looked worried.

“It’s okay.” Scarlett forced a smile, “Ethan, you should rest early. Don’t wait up for me.”

Now alone in the room, Ethan’s gaze fell on the latest high-tech Fleshlight on the bedside table.

Watching his aunt leave, his heart felt as if it was blocked by something hard, a sense of helplessness rising within him.

Ethan hated the weakness of his body.

“I need to get up, to walk out of this room.”

The thought of standing up had never been so strong.

Ethan braced himself with his hands on the sheets, moving his legs to the edge of the bed, his feet trying to support his body. As soon as he let go, he fell to the floor with a “thud.”

“Huff… huff…”

Ethan took deep breaths, ignoring the pain in his buttocks, his hands gripping the bed as he slowly stood up, his legs trembling.

His body shook, sweat beading on his forehead.

“I… I’m standing up!”

“Clang.” A loud noise came from behind. Ella covered her mouth, having waited until the room was left with only Ethan.

The head nurse had given her the opportunity to come and coerce him, but instead, she witnessed a supposedly paralyzed man standing up from the bed.
