Woke Up And Had A Baby With My Mortal Enemy - Chapter 39

Chapter 39 – Talking About Weddings

Hang Sizhou tightly grasped the collar of Xiao Hang’s shirt and let the other person’s breath spread all over his face.

The moment the two pairs of lips touched each other…

PA! !

Suddenly, the sound of a crisp slap came from outside, and Hang Sizhou suddenly returned to his senses.

His body seemed to have suddenly regained control, and all his strength was restored.

Collecting all his strength, Hang Sizhou pushed Xiao Hang’s chest hard: “Someone’s here.”

At that moment, Xiao Hang’s body turned stiff.

But, it was Hang Sizhou who was nervous and angry.

Hang Sizhou stood up straight, resting his chin on Xiao Hang’s shoulder. While listening to the movement outside, he asked in a breathy voice: “Just now… is that…?”

Without him asking, the people outside had already answered his doubts.

“I did this for Xiao Yue.”

Xiao Yue?

Hang Sizhou frowned. Xiao Yue was the nickname of Jiang Rong and Shen Mingqu’s daughter.

The voice outside was also very familiar, it was Jiang Rong.

But, who was Jiang Rong quarrelling with to the point of hitting the other party?

“You promised us that your work there would only take one day and you would come the next day.” Jiang Rong’s voice gradually became lower. “In the end, you made me feel like I was a joke.”

At that point, Hang Sizhou was very sure that Jiang Rong was fighting with her partner, the movie queen Shen Mingqu.

Hang Sizhou remembered that when he had met Jiang Rong on the first day, she had told everyone that Shen Mingqu would arrive the next day.

But, today was the third day.

And if he remembered correctly, there was only half a day of filming left for the next day. If Shen Mingqu arrived now, it would still mean that she was absent for the entire program recording, which would make anyone angry.

It seemed not difficult to understand why Jiang Rong was angry to the point of hitting her partner.

Shen Mingqu remained silent, and the only sound in the air was the sound of waves hitting the beach.

“Never mind.”

It was still Jiang Rong’s voice, “Why am I even telling you all this?”

She let out a long sigh, and then there was the sound of footsteps moving away.

Probably because she didn’t want to continue speaking to Shen Mingqu, she turned around and left.

Hang Sizhou waited inside for a while and confirmed that there was no movement outside. Then he pushed Xiao Hang, who had been half-hugging him, opened the door and walked out.

When he looked outside, Hang Sizhou paused on the spot.

It turned out that only Jiang Rong had left just now, and Shen Mingqu had stayed at the same spot as she was.

The woman was wearing a red dress, and her long hair was blown by the wind.

She stood in front of him, with clear palm prints on her face and sharp eyes, like a dark witch in some revenge movie.

The atmosphere became a little weird.

As someone who had accidentally overheard them, Hang Sizhou naturally had no guilt.

But the woman didn’t speak, and Hang Sizhou too had no idea how he was supposed to react.

The two stared at each other. After a moment, Shen Mingqu’s eyes fell on Xiao Hang who had walked out from behind Hang Sizhou.

The corners of her lips moved, as if she wanted to speak, but in the end she just nodded to them, then pulled the suitcase and walked away.

After her figure disappeared into the darkness, Hang Sizhou turned around.

“You said you have something to do with Jiang Rong, what is it?”

He didn’t know whether it was because of listening to Jiang Rong’s one-sided argument that Hang Sizhou became more resistant to alcohol.

He was no longer confused.

Xiao Hang put one hand in his pocket and stroked the velvet surface of the box: “Her father is a well-known neurology expert of the country.”

As if hearing something terrible, Hang Sizhou’s face instantly turned pale, and his voice became sharp: “Are you investigating me?”

Xiao Hang: “Assistant Lin saw you at the hospital. He said you were walking out of the neurology department.”

Hang Sizhou’s face softened slightly.

Xiao Hang looked at him: “Did you go to the doctor because of the headache you had after waking up early?”

That wasn’t the reason.

He had gone to the doctor because of a sudden memory loss.

Hang Sizhou pursed his lips and answered vaguely: “Absolutely. It’s not a big problem anyway. The doctor said it will get better in a while.”

Xiao Hang nodded, but soon he said: “Professor Jiang will return to the country next month. Even if it’s not a big problem, I hope you can let him take a look.”

Hang Sizhou blinked several times in succession.

Xiao Hang’s concern made him feel good, but at the same time, he felt nervous.

He couldn’t tell Xiao Hang about his amnesia at any cost.

He couldn’t show any flaws in front of Xiao Hang. The man had a deep mind. Once he did something wrong, he would be found out immediately.

“When he arrives, let me know,” Hang Sizhou put away the tension in his eyes, “Both of us are men. I can handle this little thing myself.”

Xiao Hang replied, “Of course.”

Even if Hang Sizhou didn’t emphasise it, Xiao Hang had already decided to not interfere more with his treatment.

Since Hang Sizhou didn’t want to let him know about his amnesia, he probably had his own reasons.

Xiao Hang would just wait.

Anyways, he had been waiting for many years; now or later, it didn’t make any difference.

Seeing that Xiao Hang didn’t pursue the matter further, Hang Sizhou breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, Xiao Hang’s cell phone vibrated again.

Hang Sizhou was standing next to Xiao Hang and clearly noticed that the caller was Xiao Hang’s best friend, Fu Haoyan.

He automatically took a few steps back: “You answer the phone, I’ll go back first.”

“Is it okay for you to go back by yourself?”

Hang Sizhou frowned: “I’m such a big man, why can’t I go back by myself?”

He nodded his head, “Besides, I’m sober now.”

The young man’s face was expressionless, but the scent of fruit candy wafted through his breath, making the air he breathed sweet.

Xiao Hang had a smile in his eyes: “Okay, I’ll be there soon.”

After making sure that Hang Sizhou was far enough to not hear his voice, Xiao Hang answered the phone.

“Is there any problem?”

“What are those two metal rings you gave me during the day?”

Xiao Hang’s thin lips curled up slightly: “Wedding rings.”

Fu Haoyan laughed: “That crappy thing…you have the nerve to call it a wedding ring? A super financial upstart with a ten-digit annual income gave his partner a crappy ring as a wedding ring. Who would dare to believe it if I spoke about it?”

Xiao Hang was not angry at being ridiculed. He said quietly: “I asked Lin Dong to bring over the ring with the blue star.”

He put his long fingers into the pocket.

He held the suede velvet box in the palm of his hand. The lid of the box was not very tight. He could easily open it by pushing it gently along the centre, then he could run his fingers along the contents inside, a pair of rings adorned with a blue star diamond.

Fu Haoyan was surprised: “Did you really buy it as a gift for Hang Sizhou?”

Xiao Hang raised his neck, and his outline was extremely clear in the moonlight: “Yes.”

“Fuck, I thought you had bought it as dowry for Xiao Zhihan!” Fu Haoyan yelled for a while, and finally asked, “But, will he want it?”

Xiao Hang’s recent attitude was indeed quite surprising, but Fu Haoyan had been by Xiao Hang’s side for years, and he knew very well that the relationship between Xiao Hang and Hang Sizhou was actually very cold.

He didn’t think Hang Sizhou would accept such an expensive gift.

Xiao Hang turned around and looked in the direction from where he had come.

The lights were brightly lit over there, and he could see that Hang Sizhou had returned to his original position.

Time to time there was the faint sound of laughter, and everyone had gathered in a group.

Hang Sizhou sat there for a while and then stood up, looked around with the wine glass in his hand, and finally walked over to Huang Yang.

On the phone, Fu Haoyan was still chattering: “I don’t think he will want it, and you probably won’t dare to give it away. It’s been years since you bought it. If you are willing to give it away, then why do you still keep it with you?”

DAH!

The box that had been opened by the long fingers suddenly closed.

Xiao Hang directly hung up the call, and without giving Fu Haoyan another chance to ridicule him, he clicked on WeChat and found his assistant’s contact.

–

When Xiao Hang didn’t return quickly. Hang Sizhou became bored sitting alone, so he simply sat next to Huang Yang and Xiang Jin.

He had a wine glass in his hand, but instead of pouring wine, he poured some juice.

Getting drunk was really a wrong idea.

Especially since Xiao Hang knew that he had visited a neurologist.

Xiao Hang had always been a smart guy.

Considering the situation, Hang Sizhou made up his mind— he ought to stay sober at all times and must not give the other party a chance to talk!

Everyone was almost done drinking, when the host grabbed the microphone: “Since we attended a wedding today, why don’t we all talk about what it was like when you got married? I remember that Teacher Huang’s wedding to Teacher Xiang was public. But, everyone else seems to have gotten married privately. Seeing everyone’s happy families makes me, a single person, really envious!”

Huang Yang and Xiang Jin were mentioned and became the first ones named by the host.

Xiang Jin has always been very enthusiastic about showing affection. He took Huang Yang’s hand, looked at him affectionately, and recalled the old events at their wedding.

After Huang Yang finished speaking, it was the next pair: Liang Fan and Xu Ling.
