- Chapter 21 - Xiao Han’s Beloved Wife CEO Character
The completely unexpected sight in front of him and the sudden appearance of a thoroughly unexpected person made Hang Sizhou forget for a moment that his legs were wrapped around Xiao Hang’s waist.
As a result, he lost his strength, and his body fell uncontrollably. He pitifully fell to the ground with a clatter, even groaning as he fell.
Two voices echoed in the corridor almost at the same time.
“Dad, are you okay?”
“Ouchhh……”
–
Hang Sizhou held the delicate roses in his hands and limped back to the living room.
“Are you… okay?” Xiao Hang asked, walking beside him.
“I’m fine.”
How was he actually fine? Hang Sizhou was a grown man, yet he fell down in such a shameful manner. He was already lucky enough to not have aroused any back problems from that fall!
It was already quite an embarrassing scenario, and Hang Sizhou just wanted it to be forgotten as soon as possible.
After seeing Hang Sizhou put down the bouquet, Xiao Hang handed over the thermos cup to him: “Drink a little.”
Hang Sizhou opened his eyes wide: “What is this?”
Xiao Zhihan came over and said, “Ginger soup. Dà Dad said that Dad was caught in the rain just now.”
Hang Sizhou’s heart warmed up and he couldn’t help but look at Xiao Hang: “Awwww, you are so considerate. Were you worried that I would catch a cold?”
Xiao Hang touched his nose and said, “It would be troublesome if you catch a cold and spread it to Hanhan. The conditions at the filming location are very average.”
Hang Sizhou: “…”
Although it was for the benefits of their child, Hang Sizhou still couldn’t help but feel some anger towards Xiao Hang.
Even no, he opened the thermos box and drank the ginger soup without any psychological burden.
Xiao Zhihan kept walking around with the bouquet of flowers: “Dad, I just counted the flowers on the way just now. There are 99 roses in this bouquet.”
Did ‘99 roses’ have any special meaning?
Hang Sizhou knew nothing about such kinds of romantic things. He couldn’t understand it at all.
Xiao Zhihan: “Xiao Feifei told me that when his mother celebrated her birthday, his father gave her 99 roses. He said that 99 roses meant that his father wanted to be with his mother forever!”
Hang Sizhou was stunned, and his eyes drifted to Xiao Hang.
Xiao Hang also happened to be looking at him at that moment. Their eyes met.
Thinking of the meaning of the 99 roses, Hang Sizhou’s face heated up inexplicably and he looked away.
It was getting late. Xiao Hang went in to coax Xiao Zhihan to sleep while Hang Sizhou sat in the living room drinking ginger soup.
The more he drank the soup, the hotter he felt.
The more he drank, the drier he became.
The bouquet of red roses placed next to him resembled a burning fire, making him sweat all the time. He no longer felt any coolness from earlier.
In fact, he even wanted to take a cold shower.
He had told Xiao Hang to buy roses on a whim, there was really no need for him to actually buy 99 roses!
He could’ve have bought 28 roses or 36 roses, or even 85 roses.Why did it have to be 99?
Hang Sizhou was almost annoyed to death. Even Xiao Zhihan knew what the 99 roses represented. So it was impossible for Xiao Hang to not know what it meant.
However, even so Xiao Hang had still bought it.
What the hell was Xiao Hang doing?!!!!!
–
Xiao Hang quietly closed the door of the master bedroom.
The phone in his pocket vibrated continuously to indicate that someone was calling.
There was the sound of someone moving around in the living room. Thus, Xiao Hang turned around and went to the study on the other side to answer the phone call.
The call was from Xiao Hang’s assistant.
“I investigated the matter, Mr. Xiao. Mr. Hang stayed at the Hang house for a short period. But, he did not leave immediately after coming out. He stood at the door in a daze for a long time. Then it rained, so he stayed outside the small security room in the pavilion.”
Recently, Hang Sizhou had been behaving quite abnormally.
And the most unusual behaviour was of tonight.
Since no information could be obtained from Hang Sizhou, Xiao Hang could only use his own method.
“Well, I understand.”
“Also, you asked me to check Hongsheng’s moves last time, and I did find something. Somehow, they seem to believe that they would surely win our company’s bid for next year. So, they have already begun making preparations for the greenfield side. Mr. Xiao, have you, by any chance, reached a verbal agreement with Mr. Hang?”
“No.”
“Then why is he…”
“If they send someone to ask about it, put it off without giving a clear answer.”
What Xiao Hang meant was to give them a cold treatment. According to the usual rules, they would not cooperate with the Hongsheng Company.
The assistant was a little confused.
Through their in-law’s relationship, Hongsheng had handled several major cases for their company in the past few years.
“Didn’t you always ask us to give them the top priority? You said he was your father-in-law.”
“First priority because he was Hang Sizhou’s father.” Xiao Hang’s voice suddenly turned cold.
The assistant was a little confused as to what riddle his boss was trying to solve, but he had already sensed the displeasure in the man’s words and did not dare to ask any more questions.
Hongsheng was determined to win the bidding and had already invested a lot of capital in the preliminary preparations.
If his boss didn’t agree in the end, then Hongsheng’s loss could be conservatively estimated to be in eight figures.
But, what did Hang Hongsheng do to make his boss act so cruelly?
After hanging up the call, Xiao Hang put away his phone and walked back to the living room.
By chance, Hang Sizhou had also finished drinking the whole thermos of ginger soup and grabbed his cell phone. He had begun walking towards the bedroom. The two met in the corridor.
Hang Sizhou didn’t know what was going on with himself. Ever since he learned about the meaning of the 99 roses, he felt uncomfortable when facing Xiao Hang.
But it was also strange to be so silent.
“You have a message from me.”
“What?”
Forget it, Xiao Han was already in front of him. In such conditions, it was too weird to express his gratitude through WeChat.
Hang Sizhou coughed and said solemnly: “Thank you for tonight.”
‘You’d better accept it easily and no behave shamelessly. Otherwise, I won’t give you face!’
Xiao Hang slightly curled his thin lips: “So, you’re just going to thank me for losing your temper and then crying and making me to go and buy you roses?”
“You…”
‘Sure enough, the nature of a dog man would never change!’
Hang Sizhou crossed his arms and said unhappily: “Do you want to fight again?”
Perhaps after drinking a large thermos of ginger tea, Hang Sizhou’s previously pale cheeks had completely recovered their color, making him look fresh and vivid, even when he looked provocative.
No matter when, Xiao Hang felt that Hang Sizhou should always look like that. The crying look from earlier really didn’t suit him.
“On the road just now, I saw a little girl who was a little older than Hanhan and looked very similar to her. She was standing in the rain and selling flowers while crying.”
Hang Sizhou was stunned, wondering why Xiao Hang was saying that.
He followed Xiao Hang’s words: “You mean she looked a lot like Hanhan, and you thought she was pitiful. So you bought the roses from her
No matter how cold-hearted Xiao Hang was, he really had bad feelings against his daughter except love.
Xiao Hang kept staring at him, and the discomfort lingering in Hang Sizhou’s heart began to wander around again.
He didn’t know what he was panicking about. Everything that had happened was just like a TV series.
But in other TV series, a lot of miscellaneous things needed to happen for at least three or four episodes.
It was good for him, everything was played out in three or four hours, leaving him no time to digest and absorb.
Xiao Hang looked straight at him and suddenly said: “No. It’s just she looked very much like you when she was crying.”
Hang Sizhou opened his mouth, not knowing how to respond to Xiao Hang.
He put down his hands which were clasped in front of his chest. He stuck them to the edge of his pajamas, spreading his fingers open and together.
The living room was very quiet, and one could hear the hands of the wall clock clicking.
His back began to sweat again, heat came from all directions, and his blood began to flowed at a high speed.
Xiao Hang walked over to him.
The footsteps were very light, but it felt as if he was actually stepping on his chest.
The heartbeat was also much faster.
He couldn’t do it.
He couldn’t allow himself to be swayed away by Xiao Hang. This person definitely didn’t mean that. He definitely didn’t mean to buy him the bouquet of roses just because the child cried like him.
If he fell into his trap, there would be ridicule waiting for him.
Hang Sizhou licked his lips several times and raised his head: “I understand. You went to buy a bouquet of roses like the ones the little girl sold. Then, you went home to pick up Hanhan in order to maintain your beloved wife CEO character.”
Xiao Hang: “?”
Hang Sizhou immediately found an icebreaker: “Otherwise, when the program team came to pick us up tomorrow, they would only find me at home. Then, your character would be ruined. Right?”
Xiao Hang was almost amused by his imagination: “My character would be broken?”
“That’s right!” The more Hang Sizhou talked, the more reliable his logic became: “Because of your hard work, I will do my best to help you maintain your character.”
“I have put the bouquet in the living room. When the crew arrives tomorrow, they will see it when they enter the house. At that time, I will tell them that you specially bought them for me in the rain and that there are 99 roses in the bouquet!”
Hang Sizhou raised his eyebrows: “Mr. Xiao, what do you think?”
Xiao Hang: “…”
