Woke Up And Had A Baby With My Mortal Enemy - Chapter 55

Chapter 55 – Lost in the Woods

Huang Yang picked up a piece of fish fillet and put it in the bowl. He turned his head to look at the man who had been silent: “Mr. Xiao, don’t be like this. Look, my old Xiang has been chatting with your guy all the time. Am I not doing fine?”

“You’ve been married for so many years, but you’re still so easily affected by your partner’s emotions. Aren’t you afraid that you’ll be controlled by him in the future?”

Xiao Hang lowered his eyes, picked up a piece of fish fillet, and said in a low voice: “I’m not afraid.”

In fact, Xiao Hang’s attention was not entirely on Hang Sizhou.

He kept thinking about the information Lin Dong had just sent him.

As Xiang Jin said, this “Jun” is indeed very mysterious, but in today’s information-developed world, it is almost impossible for a person to remain absolutely mysterious and absolutely unknown.

In fact, the information sent by Lin Dong revealed a lot of his personal matters that could not be discussed on the Internet.

Xiao Hang’s gaze slowly fell on Hang Sizhou, who was still chatting enthusiastically with Xiang Jin.

It connected to what Hang Sizhou said when he came in just now.

An inexplicably strange thought arose in his mind, but when he thought about it carefully, it didn’t seem to be inappropriate.

After breakfast the next day, the program team started the first project of this episode, Parents’ Adventures.

The children will be sent by the program team to a high tower in the center of the ancient town.

Then the adults were divided into different places. They had to pass a series of obstacles before coming to the children.

The first one to find the child will win the best house in this episode.

The ancient town is built according to the Bagua diagram, with intricate streets. The four groups of guests will be sent to four areas in four directions. Each area has various ingenious mechanisms set up by the developer, which require them to use their brains or physical strength to break.

Unfortunately, Hang Sizhou and Xiao Hang were sent to the most difficult square in the “Bagua Diagram”.

Misty forest.

It is a grove that has been growing for hundreds of years. The treetops are so high that after entering, one can only see a little bit of the sky through the layers of overlapping and intertwined branches.

There are countless paths in the woods, but there is only one path leading to the tower.

Only by choosing the right path can they successfully reach the tower and “rescue” their children.

The ancient town developed this game, also known as “Rescue True Love”, for couples.

But this time, since a parent-child variety show was invited to promote the event, it naturally became “Saving the Children.”

In order to prevent the guests from cheating, the program team interrupted everyone’s network signal in advance.

So they didn’t even have the chance to use a map or search online.

They had to rely entirely on themselves, observation of the terrain, and one’s memory of the roads they have traveled through, to get out of the woods and back to the town.

The two walked around in the grove for more than half an hour, but still had no clue.

Hang Sizhou had no sense of direction to begin with, and to his surprise, Xiao Hang, a guy who seemed to be good at everything, actually had such a poor sense of direction.

Faced with his questioning, the man was actually dissatisfied and said: “Don’t you know that I don’t know the way?”

Hang Sizhou glared at him speechlessly.

Maybe Hang Sizhou, who had not lost his memory, knew it, but now he really didn’t know!

After walking for a while, his legs were sore. Hang Sizhou found a tree stump and sat there, looking up at the blue sky cut by the lush branches: “Mr. Camera Incharge, please tell the director that we are lost here, let him comfort my little girl first.”

Photographer: “…”

Hang Sizhou: “If the other parents have arrived and she is anxious, the director can tell her that there are many obstacles where her parents are stuck, and they are working hard to solve these obstacles, and ask her to wait patiently for a while.”

“In short, you can’t say that we’re lost. You know, the image of parents in front of their children is very important.”

The cameraman was in tears.

When the program is broadcast in the future, your children will know that you are lost!

What’s the point of hiding it now?

In fact, Hang Sizhou was not worried at all that Xiao Zhihan would be anxious.

She is the type of girl who is very smart.

She knew very well that this was a show, and even before leaving in the morning, she specifically told Hang Sizhou to let them take their time to look for it, so that she could play with the other children for a while longer.

Because the director told her that the place they were going to today was very interesting and fun.

There are also many slides.

The little girl loves sliding down the slide so much.

If the production crew knew that the project they had painstakingly designed was “taken advantage of” by such a young child, they would probably be very sad.

Hang Sizhou looked around.

It is late autumn and many leaves have turned yellow, but the woods do not seem desolate at all. Instead, they give people a warm feeling.

After staring at him for a while, Hang Sizhou turned his head and looked at Xiao Hang: “Xiao Hang, haven’t we been lost together before?”

Xiao Hang glanced over and said, “Do you remember?”

Hang Sizhou not only remembered the time when they were lost, but also remembered another thing: “I did tell you about that diamond!”

That was during the spring outing in the second semester of my sophomore year.

Before leaving in the morning, when Hang Sizhou walked out of the bedroom, Hang Hongsheng also came out of the room.

The two met at his door, and the man glanced into his room and saw the Lego bunny he had placed on his desk.

Hang Hongsheng had a cold face and sneered at him, saying that he was so old but still only wanted to play with building blocks and didn’t study hard, no wonder his grades were so bad.

Hang Sizhou was so angry that he stuffed the little rabbit into his schoolbag in a fit of anger.

He just likes it. Not only did he like it now, he will like it in the future.

He will take this little rabbit with him wherever he goes from now on, which will make Hang Hongsheng so mad!

Unfortunately, Hang Sizhou was unlucky. When he was rummaging through his school bag outside, he accidentally lost the Lego bunny.

By the time he discovered it, it was already evening and everyone had arrived at the camp and set up camp to rest.

“I’m going out to look for something.”

Yan Jiayou: “I’ll accompany you…”

“No, you stay here,” Hang Sizhou took out his mobile phone and power bank from his bag, “If the teacher comes to count the number of people later, just say I went out to make a phone call.”

It was just evening and it was still quite bright outside.

Hang Sizhou had no sense of direction and could only walk back roughly relying on his memory, looking around as he walked, trying to see if he could be lucky enough to find his rabbit.

After walking for a while, as the sky got darker, Hang Sizhou became more and more anxious.

If it were completely dark, and he, a person with poor direction skills, were trapped in this forest, he would probably not be able to find his little rabbit even if he searched for a whole night.

As he was walking forward anxiously, he was suddenly frightened by a sniffling sound beside him and jumped up on the spot.

“Who?”

Hang Sizhou stretched his neck, “Who’s there?”

There was silence.

Hang Sizhou’s heart was beating fast, and he shouted nervously: “Come out quickly, or don’t blame me for being rude to you!”

There was a sound of footsteps on fallen leaves from the right, and then a slender and familiar figure walked out from behind the bushes.

“Xiao Hang?”

After confirming that the other party was someone he knew, Hang Sizhou breathed a sigh of relief.

When the boy saw him, he frowned and turned to leave.

Hang Sizhou rushed over and grabbed his arm: “Have you been crying?”

Xiao Hang is a boy with fair skin, and the redness at the corners of his eyes is particularly obvious after crying.

“It’s none of your business.” The young man’s voice was a little hoarse, basically confirming Hang Sizhou’s guess.

In Hang Sizhou’s memory, Xiao Hang was a particularly cold and emotionless person. He never expected that such a person would hide in the woods and cry secretly alone.

“Were you scolded?”

Hang Sizhou asked curiously.

Xiao Hang pursed his lips tightly and said nothing.

Hang Sizhou was also used to the other party’s silence, and continued to talk to himself: “Your grades are so good, you must not be scolded by the teacher. Your mother doesn’t look like she would scold people. I guess it must be your father who taught you a lesson, right?”

“Hehe, it turns out that even a top student can’t avoid being scolded by his father!”

The wrinkles between Xiao Hang’s eyebrows deepened: “You don’t understand.”

Hang Sizhou really didn’t understand the top student’s thoughts, but he really didn’t like seeing Xiao Hang sad.

“It’s okay to be scolded once or twice. I’m miserable. My father sold the diamond I was going to use to marry a wife.”

Afraid that Xiao Hang would not believe it, Hang Sizhou took out the photo from his phone and said, “Look, isn’t it beautiful? This diamond is called Blue Star.”

Hang Sizhou put the phone in front of Xiao Hang.

After being “forced” to stare at it for a while, the boy looked away and whispered, “Save some charge.”

Only then did Hang Sizhou turn off the phone.

After taking two steps, he said with regret, “I really feel sorry for my future wife. I lost the big diamond just like that.”

The boy standing next to him with his eyes downcast slowly clenched his fists.

Hang Sizhou wanted to continue looking for his little rabbit. Unexpectedly, Xiao Hang did not leave either, and followed him quietly.

After meeting Xiao Hang, Hang Sizhou’s luck suddenly improved. Not long after, he saw the little white rabbit on a small lawn where he had rested before.

The last rays of sunset fell from the horizon, and the sky became completely dark.

The forest at night looks completely different from that during the day. The two went deeper into the woods and the signal became worse and worse.

The two men wandered around but couldn’t find a way out. Finally, they saw a dilapidated temple on the side of the road and stayed inside for the night.

When Hang Sizhou woke up the next day, his teacher had already come with a local guide.

Naturally, the two of them were scolded by the teacher. After returning home, Hang Sizhou was locked up at home by Hang Hongsheng for a whole day to reflect.
