Woke Up And Had A Baby With My Mortal Enemy - Chapter 52

Chapter 52 – Buying a House

“I’m just buying you a house, why are you making such a fuss?”

Hang Sizhou pursed his lips, but his voice changed, with a rising tail tone, adding a bit of coquettishness, “Pretentious.”

Xiao Hang did not refute, but continued to look at him deeply: “Is it okay?”

The setting sun seeped in through the slightly opened window glass, dyeing the man’s black eyes a strange deep ochre color.

It’s like the sea level he had seen before, under the endless sunset.

Hang Sizhou’s eyes moved slightly downwards and fell on the man’s straight nose.

The scent of each other was everywhere, a mixture of laundry detergent and men’s woody perfume, cold but with an indescribable sweetness.

His vision and sense of smell were all occupied. After blinking several times, Hang Sizhou finally managed to hold back the “OK” that was emanating from his throat.

Ever since he sensed Xiao Hang’s thoughts, he is no longer as helpless as before when facing Xiao Hang.

But there is no way to deny that at times like this, the heart is still very disobedient.

It was beating so fast that Hang Sizhou suspected that Xiao Hang could hear his heartbeat.

He raised his hand, grabbed the man’s fingers that had just slid down, pinched his chin, and gently pulled them down.

As he moved, the man got closer and closer, until their lips were almost touching.

The head that was freed again tilted slightly, and Hang Sizhou looked at the thin lips that were so close to him: “I…”

A loud “beep” sound ended the ambiguous atmosphere that stretched infinitely in the car.

Hang Sizhou frowned and looked back.

Although their car was parked in the temporary parking area, it was the rush hour after getting off work and it did affect the vehicles behind.

Letting go of the man’s fingers, Hang Sizhou pushed him back.

He leaned back in his chair and said vaguely, “I need to think about it again, you drive,” and then there was no other sound.

Xiao Hang stared at him for two seconds and did not insist on getting an answer.

The car merged into the traffic flow and moved forward slowly.

Hang Sizhou looked at the car in the front which hadn’t moved much and felt a little impatient.

He took out his cell phone and while unlocking it, he glanced at Xiao Hang out of the corner of his eye.

The man was concentrating on driving.

There is heavy traffic on the road, so Xiao Hang wouldn’t let himself be distracted by what he is doing.

Hang Sizhou clicked on the “Brotherhood Alliance” group.

【Zhou Zhou: I am dead.】

【Handsome Yan: ???】

【Qingqing:???】

【Zhou Zhou: I think Xiao Hang likes me more than I think.】

【Zhou Zhou: He wants to buy me a house, and he also said….】

His fingertips hovered over the input box for several seconds, then Hang Sizhou deleted all the words he had typed in and started it once again.

【Zhou Zhou: Forget it, I’ll keep this to myself and won’t tell you guys about it.】

【Qingqing: ……】

【Handsome Yan: ???】

【Handsome Yan: Zhou Zhou, you are being disrespectful. What do you mean by saying half of the words? Isn’t it normal for Xiao Hang to buy you a house when he is so rich?】

【Zhou Zhou: I want to tell you the whole thing too. But, didn’t you protest against me before and told me to stop showing affection in the group?】

【Handsome Yan: What did he say?】

Xiao Hang raised his eyes.

In the rearview mirror that was slightly facing right, the young man’s lips were curled up and the dimples on both sides were clearly visible.

As he typed, his long eyelashes trembled.

The car windows are not fully closed.

A ray of setting sun fell there, like the fluttering wings of a fairy.

Xiao Hang tried very hard to retract his gaze and continue to concentrate on driving.

Hang Sizhou looked at the text he had entered with satisfaction and quickly tapped the send button.

【Secret, I won’t tell you.】

Next second.

【Qingqing exited the group chat.】

【Handsome Yan: What happened to Qingqing? Why did he quit the group?】

【Zhou Zhou: You’re ask me, who should I ask?】

【Handsome Yan: I think he clicked the wrong button. I’ll ask him to add it back.】

A few minutes later.

【Handsome Yan: Qingqing said he won’t come back.】

【Zhou Zhou: Why?】

【Handsome Yan: He said that unless you promise not to talk about you and Xiao Hang in the group anymore, he will never come back in this life.】

【Zhou Zhou: ……】

–

Unlike Shen Minyun, Xiao Hang’s mother Kang Ying remarried five years ago.

Her remarriage partner was a university professor named Cao Zhiwen, who wore a pair of thin-framed glasses and had a very elegant temperament.

Cao Zhiwen likes to cook in his spare time, and he also cooked today’s dinner.

Several people sat around a round table and ate together.

Xiao Zhihan has been very attached to Hang Sizhou recently. As long as Hang Sizhou comes, she will always be with him, involving him in everything.

The same thing happened tonight. Hang Sizhou had to help her pick out the dishes and pick out the fish bones for her. If Kang Ying hadn’t stipulated that she had to sit on her own little chair when eating, she would have sat on Hang Sizhou by now.

After all, she did this when she spent the weekend with Hang Sizhou.

After dinner, Kang Ying carried the dishes back to the kitchen.

There is always a clear division of labor on her side. She wipes the table and her husband would wash the dishes.

Just as she put down the bowl, Xiao Hang’s voice came from behind her.

“Mom, the house by the lake that you mentioned last time, is it on the market now?”

Kang Ying turned around and asked: “Have you finally decided to buy a house?”

Unlike other men who had established a family and a career, Xiao Hang had never bought a house even though he had more than enough money to do it.

Kang Ying had tried to persuade him several times, but he always brushed her off.

“Well,” the man said calmly, “Sizhou and I are planning to buy a new house.”

Kang Ying was stunned: “You… together?”

Xiao Hang said “hmm”.

The woman picked up the rag beside her and wiped her hands repeatedly in a confused manner.

Only when the back of her hand was rubbed red did she raise her face and spoke with a smile: “I didn’t pay attention to it after you refused last time. I will ask about it tomorrow.”

Xiao Hang nodded slightly: “Okay.”

Then, he turned and walked out.

Kang Ying and her husband were the only ones left in the kitchen.

The woman held the rag tightly and watched her son’s back as he walked into the living room. Finally, he sat next to Hang Sizhou and Xiao Zhihan, leaned over and looked at them with a smile.

After staring at the family of three for a long time, a strange idea suddenly came to Kang Ying’s mind.

She turned around and tugged at her husband’s sleeve: “Lao Cao, do you think Ah Hang told me this on purpose?”

Cao Zhiwen, who was concentrating on washing dishes, asked: “What?”

Kang Ying glared at him: “He came to ask me about buying a house. He is much more informed than a housewife like me, and he has an assistant to help him. If he wanted to know about the sale of a new property, isn’t it a matter of minutes?”

So Xiao Hang specifically came to talk to her about it just to tell her that he and his wife were going to buy a new house.

Kang Ying’s gaze once again fell on the three people in the living room.

Xiao Zhihan was sitting between Xiao Hang and Hang Sizhou.

Kang Ying could see that even with both fathers around, the little girl was more inclined towards Hang Sizhou now.

It is an instinctive human reaction, the body will move closer to the person she likes at the moment.

In just over two weeks, Hang Sizhou had completely won the little girl’s love.

“You always worried about their relationship problems before, but now they are planning to buy a house together. Isn’t that a good thing?”

Kang Ying frowned: “That’s true…”

Over the years, she would meet Hang Sizhou’s mother from time to time.

Perhaps because he didn’t want Shen Minyun to worry, Hang Sizhou always created the appearance of a harmonious relationship in front of his mother.

But in front of her, Hang Sizhou was always distant and polite.
