Dr. Song'sSecretNewWife

Chapter 38 She's Not Home

Song Shuang's mind was all over the place.

Shortly after he left the restaurant, he was stopped by Bai Qiong who was walking quickly before he arrived at the parking lot, "Song Shuang?"

Bai Qiong's voice was beautiful. All the passers-by looked at them due to her sweet voice.

Song Shuang didn't bother to pay attention.

Although Bai Qiong was Bai Jinhang's younger daughter, her background was totally different from Bai Muwan's.

Because Zhuo Wenqing was not Bai Jinhang's wife now.

She was merely Bai Jinhang's mistress. Although Bai Jinhang acknowledged the kid, he never officially accepted Zhuo Wenqing.

Although Bai Qiong seemed to be brought up and loved by Bai Jinhang, it was uncertain whether Bai Jinhang indeed loved her.

He didn't know why his mother promised Zhuo Wenqing to let him meet up with Bai Qiong.

His mother cared so much about the social status, and this was not her style.

But if you thought about it carefully, the only reason to let her give up her prejudice was that Bai Qiong was not a simple woman.

Bai Qiong stood in front of Song Shuang. Unlike a shy little girl, she wasn't afraid to show her sophistication, "It's not good to drive yourself because you just drank some wine. Maybe I can drive you home?"

"Thank you."

Song Shuang thanked her simply.

Bai Qiong smiled.

"But it's no need. My wife doesn't like other women to send me home."

Then Song Shuang rejected her directly.

Bai Qiong's smile froze immediately.

Song Shuang passed her by without looking at her.

With the breeze caused by Song Shuang's walking, Bai Qiong clenched her hands and turned around unwillingly.

Her beautiful eyes were full of evil schemes.

...

After dinner, Gu Baisheng checked her social media and watched some tv shows. She then put on her jacket and planned to take a walk because she was still too full.

The air was cold outside.

It was the Christmas Eve.

The greenery of this neighborhood was really nice. Therefore, many young couples were taking a walk here.

When she walked to the fountain square, she saw a little girl in a beautiful dress selling roses from a basket.

"Do you want to give flowers to some handsome guys, miss?"

The little girl wearing a cute hat walked to her and asked her with her eyes shining.

Gu Baisheng found that she was a chubby girl who was about 7 or 8 years old. So she took out the money from her purse to buy one flower.

But suddenly she remembered that her mother always told her that good things came in pairs, so she bought one more flower.

She held the two roses and sniffed them. The fragrance made her feel happier.

She kept walking with the two roses.

She walked out of her neighborhood and walked along the busy street to the night market.

The regulation of the night markets in Beicheng was strict.

The night market was not near her place, but she didn't feel it was a long walk.

When she just arrived at the night market, she saw Qu Xiaobo and Zhang Kai were arguing from a distance.

"I told you to book a table at that restaurant! Why can't you just listen to me?"

"I booked it really early, but it was booked out." Zhang Kai felt that he was wronged.

Qu Xiaobo was angry to see him that way, "Never mind. Why don't we just go back home?"

Qu Xiaobo turned around angrily and planned to go home.

When he turned around, he saw Gu Baisheng looking at them awkwardly with two roses.

Zhang Kai looked at them too.

The three looked at each other into their eyes and felt confused.

It suddenly got a bit weird.

...

Song Shuang pushed open the door and found Gu Baisheng's shoes were gone.

The pink checked slippers were placed well on the shoe shelf at the entrance.

He frowned a bit, rushed to Gu Baisheng's bedroom, and opened the door.

Gu Baisheng was not in her bedroom, just as he expected.

He became a bit annoyed and kneaded his eyebrows with his hand. Then he went to the kitchen to find some cold beer in the fridge.

But when Gu Baisheng moved in, she reorganized the fridge. There were only bottles of mineral water in it apart from food and fruit. He couldn't even find sodas and juice, let alone cold beer.

Song Shuang became more annoyed and slammed the fridge door.

He poured himself a couple of water and took a sip. And he took out his phone gloomily and planned to make a phone call.

But when it was about to get connected, Song Shuang's eyes darkened, and then he locked his screen angrily.

He put his phone back into his pocket and closed his eyes to calm down.

He then turned around and walked out with his car key.

...

When Gu Baisheng just sat down at a food stall, Qu Xiaobo and Zhang Kai sat across the table. They almost surrounded her.

The owner of the food stall came to ask them, "What do you want to eat?"

"Mutton shashlik with more paprika." Zhang Kai shouted at the noisy food stall.

"Cray! Spicy cray!" Qu Xiaobo ordered right after him.

After they finished ordering, the owner looked at Gu Baisheng eagerly, "What about you, miss?"

Gu Baisheng thought for a while and said, "I want river snails rice noodles."

"River snails rice noodles?" Qu Xiaobo frowned and said to the owner, "Two bottles of beer. Hurry up! And a big plate of cray. Two hundred mutton shashliks!"

"No problem! Right away!"

The owner smiled like a fortune cat and went to work.

When Gu Baisheng heard that Qu Xiaobo and Zhang Kai said to have two bottles of beer, she thought they were planning something.

She knew Qu Xiaobo since they were babies.

Frankly speaking, she could tell what Qu Xiaobo would say when her lips moved.

Now Qu Xiaobo ordered two bottles of beer, which meant that she planned to get her drunk.

She knew it clearly that she couldn't get away from it. Qu Xiaobo and Zhang Kai wouldn't let her leave if they were not drunk.

Why didn't she enjoy the food as long as they paid for it?

So she sat down confidently.

The food and beer were served really quickly.

The cray was way too spicy. Although Zhang Kai didn't manage to book a table for Qu Xiaobo at a Western restaurant on Christmas Eve,

he had to please Qu Xiaobo by eating the unseasonal food at the food stall.

Qu Xiaobo liked cray, so Zhang Kai helped her to peel the cray.

After peeling it, he passed the food to Qu Xiaobo, "My dear, please eat it."

Gu Baisheng was enjoying the food and beer while looking at them displaying affection in public.

Qu Xiaobo was in a better mood after eating the cray Zhang Kai peeled for her.

She then looked at Gu Baisheng, "Why do you walk out at night alone?"

Gu Baisheng sipped at her beer and told her honestly, "I was alone at home, so I want to see how busy the city is."

"Song Shuang is not home?"

"He went back to his parents' house."

Qu Xiaobo nodded at what she said, and she seemed to remember something and said, "The Song Family is rich, but it also has all kinds of rules. They usually have family gatherings during the holidays. Shengsheng didn't get along well with his family, so Song Shuang barely joined the gatherings. I almost forget that it has such a rule."

After saying it, Qu Xiaobo seemed to realize something and asked her, "Song Shuang didn't take you with him?"

"No."

Gu Baisheng answered honestly.

Qu Xiaobo replied, "That makes sense. He doesn't even like you, so it's impossible for him to accept you as his wife, let alone a member of his family. He won't take you to a family gathering."

Qu Xiaobo told the hurtful truth frankly.

Zhang Kai, who was peeling cray for her, felt sorry for Gu Baisheng.

But Gu Baisheng didn't seem to care.

"I suggest that you should be careful. The Song Family and Song Shuang don't accept you. So even if Auntie Hu helped you to marry him, he would dump you really soon."

Although Qu Xiaobo got a big mouth, her bark was worse than her bite.

She couldn't help reminding them when she saw some wretches.

She didn't like Bai Shengsheng at all, but now she pitied her when she thought about Bai Shengsheng's fate to be dumped.

Gu Baisheng smiled on hearing Qu Xiaobo's kind reminder, "Thank you for reminding me."

Qu Xiaobo twitched her lips proudly, "Never mind. I wish you can be dumped by him."

Zhang Kai hurried to explain, "Please don't blame her, Miss Bai. She's kind inside."

"I know." Gu Baisheng nodded to show that she understood.

But Qu Xiaobo stared at her, "What do you know? How can you know? Shengsheng is the only one who knows me! You're only a parody!"

Qu Xiaobo ate too much cray and drank two bottles of beer.

She was not drunk enough to talk nonsense.

But for some reason, her eyes suddenly reddened as if she had been under shock.

Zhang Kai knew what she had gone through lately. He knew that she would howl when she thought about Gu Baisheng's death, so he put down the cray in his hand and tried to comfort her, "Alright, Bobo. Forget about that sad thing on such a joyful day!"

"What do you mean by sad?" Qu Xiaobo showed no mercy to people when she was mad, "Thinking about Shengsheng is sad? It's my luckiest thing to meet Shengsheng!"

"Yes, the luckiest thing!"

Zhang Kai nestled her in his arms and patted her when he echoed her.

On seeing Qu Xiaobo's behavior, Gu Baisheng asked Zhang Kai silently, "Is she always like this?"

Zhang Kai nodded sadly and answered silently, "After Gu Baisheng's death, she does it all the time. She cries more often than the goddess of tears."

Gu Baisheng was shocked.

She chose the right best friend.

Qu Xiaobo was weeping in Zhang Kai's arms, "Shengsheng promised me to celebrate Christmas Eve with me! She told me to dine out with me on Christmas. How could she lie to me? She's such a monster!"

Zhang Kai echoed, "Yes, she's such a monster!"

Bang!

Qu Xiaobo looked up and slapped Zhang Kai quickly.

Zhang Kai and Gu Baisheng were frozen at the same time.

Qu Xiaobo said fiercely, "You have no right to talk behind her back!"

Zhang Kai was speechless.

So was Gu Baisheng.
