Hu Hui came out of the kitchen and saw Meng Yunxi, the award presenter, and Song Shuang, the winner, on television.
Song Shuang wore a dark suit.
He was tall and straight. Under the shining light of the stage, he was handsome as an angel.
No woman would dislike such a man.
He was excellent, calm, noble, and handsome.
He was a perfect man that no one could find any flaw in him.
So was his life.
If one had to find one failure in his successful life,
That would be taking on Gu Baisheng and being forced to become a father.
That was probably the only thing of Song Shuang that was considered a failure and was laughed at by others.
Meng Yunxi wore a white low-cut fishtail evening dress. And it was very surprising.
It was because Meng Yunxi, who was bold, added a thin white veil on her hair accessory.
She was less like an award presenter,
She was more of a bride that was about to get married.
Everyone in Beicheng knew that Song Shuang's wife died.
The cameraman filmed them a lot in one frame. Besides, the sponsor also arranged for Meng Yunxi to give the award to Song Shuang.
Their indication was quite intriguing.
Seeing Meng Yunxi and Song Shuang standing together at the award and taking a picture, Gu Baisheng felt a bit jealous.
Qu Xiaobo was so angry that she might explode, "What's this? What is Song Shuang doing? And what are the sponsor and Meng Yunxi doing? Does the sponsor think that since Gu Baisheng is dead, they can rearrange a marriage for Song Shuang?"
After saying that, she started digging her phone in her purse angrily, "I think they're crazy! Song Shuang already married you, yet Meng Yunxi dressed all bit**y and went to the award in a wedding dress. They need some serious lectures!"
Seeing Qu Xiaobo grabbing her phone, Hu Hui pressed down her hand, "What are you doing?"
"Calling the sponsor and also Song Shuang, reminding him that he already married Gu Baisheng!"
Hu Hui took the phone out of Qu Xiaobo's hand and persuaded her, "Shuang is not that kind of person who could be easily swayed. Don't worry about it."
"Then why did he go to this award?"
Qu Xiaobo said.
At the same time, the camera turned backstage. Meng Yunxi who just presented Song Shuang the award was standing by him and was interviewed with him.
Song Shuang was emotionless as if winning this award didn't surprise him.
Meng Yunxi smiled elegantly and gently, "I have been hoping for a long time to meet you again, Dr. Song."
After she said that, she looked at Song Shuang meaningfully.
Song Shuang faced the camera. After glancing at Meng Yunxi's smile, he also smiled and slightly raised up his award, "I'm surprised too."
The reporter asked again, "It was a long time ago that Dr. Song and Dr. Meng stood on the same stage. Are you thrilled today to win the award and see an old friend?"
"Yes." Song Shuang nodded.
Meng Yunxi curled up her lips.
Just when she was going to pour all the affection in her eyes onto Song Shuang's face.
Song Shuang said again, "I'm eager to share my happiness with my wife."
"Your wife?"
For a moment, the reporter's voice changed.
Meng Yunxi couldn't hide her surprise on her pretty face.
The reporter knew his wife died. He changed his tone and said sadly and compassionately, "If your wife could see this in heaven..."
"Not the deceased Mrs. Song, my current wife."
Song Shuang interrupted the reporter. He turned to the camera with a serious look.
He didn't look like he was joking.
Song Shuang bluntly said he was remarried in front of the camera.
Qu Xiaobo was surprised by what he did.
"He..."
Hu Hui looked at Song Shuang on the television. She looked more relieved.
"He acknowledged you in front of everyone?"
Qu Xiaobo turned to Gu Baisheng, "Good for him!"
Gu Baisheng was also surprised at heart.
Did Song Shuang just disclose their relationship?
Unlike the three women's reactions, Xiao Rong only looked down after hearing what Song Shuang said as if thinking about something deeply.
On the other hand, the reporter finished the interview.
Meng Yunxi couldn't help but stepped up and grabbed Song Shuang's arm, "Were you being serious?"
Song Shuang frowned and looked at her hand that was grabbing his arm.
Meng Yunxi retracted angrily.
Song Shuang then said indifferently, "Of course, I was."
Meng Yunxi clutched her fingers, "Who is it? Gu Baisheng just died and you remarried. Who's that woman?"
"I don't have to tell you."
Song Shuang didn't bother to look at her. After taking his eyes back, he walked towards his seat in the front.
Meng Yunxi was so angry that she was out of breath.
She suddenly felt like the veil on her head was as ridiculous as the paint on a clown's face.
She waited till Gu Baisheng died.
But she didn't anticipate that someone would move faster than her.
Someone already got him.
But she wouldn't just give up like this.
She could wait until Gu Baisheng died, so she could also kick this new woman out of the picture.
She knew that Song Shuang loved Gu Baisheng.
But how deep were his feelings towards this new wife?
...
Gu Baisheng decided to go home late at night.
Qu Xiaobo was worried, looking at Xiao Rong.
"How are you going to take him back to school?"
Gu Baisheng told Qu Xiaobo how she climbed over the wall to get Xiao Rong out.
Qu Xiaobo also thought her move was too bold.
She also told Gu Baisheng some secrets about the Xiao Family.
"I've always heard that Xiao Family had a son that no one could mention. I thought he was mentally challenged, but I never know he is a mute who is so handsome."
"Xiao Family rarely tells others about his existence."
"So they kept him in the institute? Like locking up a lunatic? They want him to live there forever?"
Gu Baisheng nodded, "Something like that."
"These rich people are heartless."
Qu Xiaobo felt sorry for Xiao Rong.
"Let him stay with Auntie Hu tonight. I'll pick him up tomorrow morning and drop him off at school."
"Are you sure?"
Qu Xiaobo asked Gu Baisheng.
Gu Baisheng nodded, "Yeah. Auntie Hu will take him in."
It was as she predicted.
When she proposed this idea, Hu Hui did agree to take Xiao Rong in.
But she also warned her seriously, "Don't do it next time."
Gu Baisheng agreed.
Zhang Kai came over to pick up Qu Xiaobo, so Gu Baisheng thought about getting a ride back.
But she thought that she hadn't stayed over at her mother's place for a long time.
So she had the idea of staying tonight.
As soon as this idea popped up.
Gu Baisheng wanted to call Song Shuang to tell him.
Yet after he picked up the phone, Song Shuang talked first, "Where are you? It's late and you're still not home."
Gu Baisheng's mouth twitched, "You're already back?"
"Yes."
Song Shuang pinched in between his eyebrows because of his headache.
"Don't you need to go to the after-party?"
"I left early." Song Shuang realized Gu Baisheng was avoiding his question. He became impatient and asked, "Where are you?"
Gu Baisheng heard Song Shuang's impatience. She hesitated for a while and then said, "I'm at Auntie Hu's place."
...
It didn't take Song Shuang very long to drive to Hu Hui's house.
Seeing Song Shuang's car parking downstairs, Gu Baisheng knew that she wouldn't be able to stay at Hu Hui's place.
Hu Hui looked outside the window and saw Song Shuang's car downstairs. She was quite satisfied with Song Shuang's performance.
"He came to get you this late. You should go back with him tonight."
Gu Baisheng was speechless.
She felt like she was disliked by her own mother.
Xiao Rong was also standing by the window.
He looked calm after seeing Song Shuang's car.
His eyes were like a deep lake. No one could guess what he was thinking.
"Xiao Rong may not be used to living here. I'll talk to him."
Gu Baisheng turned around to look at Xiao Rong.
Because she didn't know many sign languages, she just said it directly, "I'll come to pick you tomorrow morning. You can stay here tonight."
Xiao Rong signed, "I'll behave. I won't cause auntie any trouble."
Gu Baisheng nodded.
While they were conversing,
Someone knocked on the door.
"Song Shuang is here for you."
Hu Hui went over to open the door.
Gu Baisheng also picked up her purse and coat from the sofa.
She walked towards the door.
Xiao Rong followed her.
Hu Hui opened the door and Song Shuang greeted her, "Mother."
Hu Hui nodded and looked at him, "You're here to pick up Gu Baisheng, right? She was about to head back."
Song Shuang looked at the room.
He was going to pick up Gu Baisheng and leave, yet he saw Xiao Rong behind Gu Baisheng.
Song Shuang felt like he might explode after seeing him.
But he didn't say anything. He just looked a bit annoyed.
"It's late today. We will come back to see you another day."
Seeing Gu Baisheng reaching the door, Song Shuang said to Hu Hui.
He then grabbed Gu Baisheng's arm and said, "Let's go."
"Oh, ok. That..."
She wanted to say something to Xiao Rong at the door.
Yet Song Shuang was pulling her with strength.
He kept pulling her forward. After the elevator door opened, he dragged her into the elevator.
As if he didn't want her to say another word to Xiao Rong.
Gu Baisheng went into the elevator helplessly. Seeing the door shut, she looked at him, "Today, you..."
Before she could finish, Song Shuang spoke first, "Why are you with that Xiao Rong again?"
"He's my student."
"You brought your student out of the school?"
Song Shuang frowned and looked at her. His sharp look made Gu Baisheng feel that something was wrong.
"Well, I took him out for business. And I take him to Auntie Hu on the way."
"What's this business?"
Song Shuang decided to get to the bottom of this.
Gu Baisheng couldn't take it.
"The bubble tea at school is not tasty..."
"What?"
Song Shuang lowered his voice.
Gu Baisheng took a deep breath and told him the truth, "Xiao Rong can't speak and his leg has some problem, but he is not mentally challenged that he couldn't take care of his life. He's 23 years old. He's an adult who deserves to be free and live in the outside world. Why should they keep him in that institute? It's no different from keeping a bird in a cage!"
What Gu Baisheng said had been on her mind for some time.
She thought the whole thing was not fair to Xiao Rong.
Xiao Rong deserved to be free.
Yet what she said pissed off Song Shuang.
Song Shuang warned her with a serious look, "That's his business, not yours! You don't have the right or the need to take care of it!"
