Chapter 53 Did He Tell the Truth?

Gu Baisheng heard Song Shuang's voice, so she twitched her lips and turned back to look at Song Shuang helplessly, "It's not what you think..."

"What?"

Song Shuang was not blind. When he walked out of the living room, he could see the man Gu Baisheng was holding was Zhang Kai.

Gu Baisheng and Qu Xiaobo were best friends, so he knew Zhang Kai well.

But he didn't expect Zhang Kai would come to visit.

And now Zhang Kai was held by Gu Baisheng and he was not here for him.

It seemed that he came here to visit his new wife.

Song Shuang squinted at Gu Baisheng.

At this time, Zhang Kai seemed to see his lifesaver when he heard Song Shuang's voice. He rushed to Song Shuang drunkenly, grabbed his arms, and lisped his plea, "Dr. Song, please do me a favor... Let... "

Zhang Kai made a hiccup.

Song Shuang turned his face away in time to avoid it. But he couldn't tolerate it because Zhang Kai spoke with a strong smell when he was drunk.

Song Shuang lifted his hand to cover his nose and then asked Gu Baisheng, "What happened to him?"

"I haven't found it out yet. It seems that he had a quarrel with Bobo."

"Why did he come to you if they two quarreled?"

Song Shuang stared at Gu Baisheng.

Gu Baisheng felt guilty, "He didn't come to me. He was here for you..."

But when she just finished this word, Zhang Kai made her embarrassed.

Zhang Kai grabbed Song Shuang's wrist and pleaded, "Please let Baisheng tell me... Tell me where Qu Xiaobo is... Gu Baisheng must know it, but she refused to tell me..."

After saying so, he pointed his fingers at Gu Baisheng to accuse her, "You're her best friend! She cried her heart out when you died! You must know where she is!"

Gu Baisheng twitched her lips, "That's nonsense."

Song Shuang looked at her with gloomy eyes. No one could guess what was on his mind.

In order not to make Song Shuang overthink, Gu Baisheng said, "He's drunk and talking nonsense. Don't listen to him!"

"You're Gu Baisheng!" Drunken Zhang Kai was stubborn. When he heard Gu Baisheng deny who she was, he immediately refuted, "You just changed into another face! Bobo told me that you're still alive! Why don't you admit it?"

"I... I..." Gu Baisheng didn't know how to refute what Zhang Kai said and she almost rushed to muffle Zhang Kai's mouth.

Zhang Kai was cautious about his words when he was sober.

But while he was drunk, he just said whatever came into his mind.

He just said whatever he wanted to say.

"You don't admit it because you still hate him?"

Zhang Kai drew a circle with his finger and now he was pointing at Song Shuang, "She hates you because you didn't save her child with Cheng Bi! So when she came back to life again, she doesn't want to be with you! She wants to be with Cheng Bi."

Gu Baisheng watched Zhang Kai make those wild accusations.

She felt scared.

The way Song Shuang looked at her made her uncomfortable.

She couldn't take it anymore, so she grabbed Zhang Kai's arm, "Sit down now! I will bring you a cup of sober-up tea. Stop talking nonsense!"

"I'm telling..."

"Shut up!"

Gu Baisheng muffled Zhang Kai's mouth.

Song Shuang talked coldly behind her, "Gu Baisheng, did he tell the truth?"

"No, don't listen to him!"

Gu Baisheng denied it immediately.

Her face paled after saying so.

Gu Baisheng...

He called her Gu Baisheng.

And she responded to it.

Gosh, why did she respond?

Suddenly, Gu Baisheng dare not speak.

She wanted to muffle her mouth by herself, but she was too afraid to lift it when Song Shuang was staring at her so coldly.

She could only explain helplessly, "No, don't listen to him. You..."

Suddenly,

Song Shuang reached out his hand and grabbed her wrist. He pulled her close to him and his face was almost touched hers.

He looked straight into her eyes. His voice became harsh as if he was holding back a sort of strong emotion, "Why don't you admit it?"

Gu Baisheng shook her head and explained in panic, "No, I'm not..."

"Come with me!"

Song Shuang was strong enough to drag her into the side bedroom.

Gu Baisheng staggered and could barely follow Song Shuang.

Song Shuang opened the drawer of the nightstand when they were in the side bedroom.

The photo album Gu Baisheng wanted to look at again was awesomely lying inside.

Song Shuang took out the photo album and asked her, "You went to my room that night to look for this, didn't you?"

Gu Baisheng bit her lip and looked at Song Shuang anxiously. She still wanted to explain, "No..."

"And the pigeon soup that day."

Song Shuang mentioned the pigeon soup again.

Gu Baisheng became nervous when he started this topic.

She looked at Song Shuang in terror, "What?"

"I know the taste of the pigeon soup made by Gu Baisheng so well. You made two types on purpose and gave the one with peppercorns first, so I couldn't tell the second one's true flavor because of the tongue numbness. Am I right?"

Gu Baisheng didn’t dare to test her luck anymore.

She couldn't believe that Song Shuang found it out.

"No..." Gu Baisheng denied, "It's not a scheme. I didn't..."

"You know everything!" Song Shuang suddenly raised his voice.

Gu Baisheng was stunned by his reaction.

Blankly, she looked at him in terror.

Song Shuang was squeezing her wrist so hard that she could feel the pain.

But no matter how painful it was, Song Shuang didn't want to let go of her.

She dared not scream.

She could only look at him.

Song Shuang's eyes were filled with rage. It seemed that the deceit was a huge humiliation to him. He squeezed her wrist and exposed what she did, "You know me well. You know that my headaches after I drink. You know exactly where my two flats are, including which floors they are on. You even know what Gu Baisheng hid in my flat at Haoting. Qu Xiaobo thinks you're Gu Baisheng and your mom can feel that you're her daughter. Now even Zhang Kai knows who you are, and you still try to lie to me?"

Gu Baisheng could not refute what Song Shuang said.

But she didn't want to admit it.

She could confess to Hu Hui and Qu Xiaobo.

But the only person whom she could not confess to was Song Shuang.

The secret shared by Song Shuang and Hu Hui was not supposed to be known by Gu Baisheng.

If she had admitted, she would have never known what the secret was.

Song Shuang and Hu Hui could keep that secret for seven years.

And they could continue doing it for years.

She wanted to know that secret so badly. And her instinct told her that it was a really important secret.

It was important enough to make Song Shuang and Hu Hui try to cover it up at all costs.

"No, please. Don't overthink..." Gu Baisheng denied it.

She didn't plan to reveal who she was in front of him no matter what.

"Overthink?" Song Shuang repeated this word coldly and slowly.

Then Song Shuang suddenly opened the photo album with his slender fingers. He went through the photos and stopped at the photo when Gu Baisheng was pregnant. He pointed at the photo and asked her, "Don't you remember? This is what you looked like when you were pregnant with Shen."

Gu Baisheng shook her head and avoided looking at this photo.

Song Shuang turned a page and said fiercely, "This is the second day after Shen was born."

She shook her head.

Song Shuang turned another page, "This is when Shen was a month old."

"This is when Shen was a year old."

"This is when Shen was three years old."

"And this is when Shen was ill."

He kept turning the pages.

Gu Baisheng didn't have the heart to look at them and she was worried that she might wail desperately if she looked.

That was her son.

That was her only son that she had been pregnant with for ten months.

No one could understand how painful it was for her to lose that child.

She lost all her hopes.

And she once wanted to end everything.

"This is when Shen had his first treatment. I bought him a toy car to persuade him to stay in the hospital."

Gu Baisheng clenched her hands and bit her lips hard in order not to cry.

Song Shuang knew that.

Shen was her soft spot.

Every time people talked about him, she was really sad.

But now Song Shuang was using these things to make her admit who she was.

She insisted, "No matter how many pages you turn, I don't remember anything because I'm not Gu Baisheng."

"Then why do you cry?"

Song Shuang asked her.

Gu Baisheng froze for a moment and lifted her hand to touch her eyes hurriedly.

Her eyes were dry.

She looked up at Song Shuang.

Song Shuang looked right into her eyes.

"But you're bleeding inside?"

She shook her head and clenched her hands. She insisted stubbornly although her heart was extremely painful, "I don't know what you're talking about."

"Do you still remember what Cheng Bi looks like?"

Song Shuang asked suddenly.

Gu Baisheng widened her eyes.

Her heart raced quickly for a second.

She shook her head in panic, "I... I don't know him."

"You don't know him?" Song Shuang squinted his eyes and the coldness in his eyes made her look away, "but when you were knocked out by Shen Jing, you were calling his name."

Gu Baisheng stepped back immediately.

Song Shuang dragged her back suddenly and questioned her angrily, "You were asking Cheng Bi to help you! You wanted him to save you!"

Gu Baisheng shook her head, "Stop! I don't understand what you're talking about."

"You're lying." Song Shuang grabbed her wrist fiercely, "You don't know Gu Baisheng through other people. You know everything about her! How can you be another person?"

"Gu Baisheng is dead, Song Shuang." Gu Baisheng reminded him, "There's no another Gu Baisheng."

He said seriously, "So you're her! You're the only Gu Baisheng!"

"You're deceiving yourself."

Gu Baisheng frowned and wanted to push him away.

But the next second, she was surrounded by his arms tightly.

Song Shuang held her tightly with his fingers touching the back of her head.

She couldn't see Song Shuang's face now, but she could tell from his voice that he was uncontrollably emotional, "I want you to be alive, Gu Baisheng. That's the only thing I want."
