Hang Sizhou was extremely angry.
How could he, a man of seven feet tall, be called by another man—
What's that called?!
How is that possible!
Xiao Hang lowered his eyes and looked at Hang Sizhou who was curled up in the quilt, and an involuntary smile appeared at the corner of his lips.
After all these years, this guy hasn't changed at all.
It will explode at the slightest provocation and ignite at the slightest touch.
The smile froze when he saw the scar on Hang Sizhou's waist again.
"Your injury—" Xiao Hang spoke hesitantly.
Hang Sizhou: "What's the injury?"
Xiao Hang pursed his lips: "Nothing."
Hang Sizhou's old injury had nothing to do with him.
Given their current relationship, there's no need to ask any more questions.
Xiao Hang turned and walked towards the bathroom. After taking two steps, Hang Sizhou called him: "Are you free tomorrow?"
Xiao Hang stopped and asked: "What's wrong?"
Even though he was unwilling, Hang Sizhou still told his mother what he had asked him to do: "My mother asked the three of us to go back for dinner. She said she had made the sweet and sour pork that you like."
He quickly added, "Of course, you don't have to go if you're busy!"
Without this annoying dog man, he could take Xiao Zhihan and go back with him to have fun.
"Can I really not go?"
Hang Sizhou nodded continuously. Even though he tried hard to hide it, the expectation in his eyes was still visible under the bright light.
Xiao Hang saw this, his eyes became darker: "But I'm free tomorrow."
The smile on Hang Sizhou's eyelashes froze in an instant. He stared at Xiao Hang with his cheeks slightly puffed, looking like he was totally unwilling.
Xiao Hang: "Besides, I've wanted to eat the sweet and sour pork your mother made for a long time."
Hang Sizhou snorted coldly: "You are really lucky."
Xiao Hang smiled noncommittally and walked into the bathroom.
-
The next day.
Xiao Zhihan's piano teacher had to change her class schedule at the last minute, so she couldn't go to Hang Sizhou's mother's house for dinner with Xiao Hang.
In response, Ms. Shen was very reasonable: "It is natural for children to study the most important thing. Look, I, the grandmother, can come anytime, right?"
Xiao Hang cooperated very well: "Yes."
Looking at his servile appearance, Hang Sizhou rolled his eyes to the sky.
When the two arrived, Ms. Shen had already prepared a table of dishes.
Hang Sizhou looked around and saw that most of the dishes were his favorites, with only a few being the ones Xiao Hang liked.
The corners of his lips, which had been tense all the way, finally relaxed.
At least, his mother is on his side.
As soon as she sat down, Ms. Shen looked at the dishes on the table and suddenly said with regret, "This table of dishes is wasted. Many of them are Hanhan's favorites. Alas!"
Hang Sizhou paused with the chopsticks stretched out in the air.
He said stiffly: "Mom, this is also my favorite."
Ms. Shen blinked and said, "Ah?" She looked completely confused.
Hang Sizhou: “…”
Well, it turns out that when a man has a child, his mother becomes the mother of his child.
Ms. Shen turned to Xiao Hang and used the serving chopsticks to pick up several slices of sweet and sour pork for him: "Hang, eat this first. It won't taste good if it gets cold."
Xiao Hang curved his lips: "Thank you, Mom."
Hang Sizhou lowered his eyes.
Okay, not only the mother of his child, but also the mother of his partner.
In short, she is not his mother.
Hang Sizhou made up a series of tongue twisters in his mind. Seeing that Ms. Shen started eating, he told his mother that he was going to take Xiao Zhihan to the variety show.
"Let's Travel Together" is a very popular parent-child program in the country. It is quite educational and Ms. Shen also likes to watch it on weekdays.
"Will this affect Hanhan's studies?"
As soon as the old dean of studies opens his mouth, you can tell whether there is one or not.
Ms. Shen gave birth to him when she was in her thirties, and he has been retired for five or six years now.
Unexpectedly, this occupational disease has not disappeared over the years.
Hang Sizhou, who has been tortured for many years, has the most say: "Mom, how old is Xiao Zhihan? This age is just for playing, okay?"
Although he has been a poor student since childhood, Ms. Shen is too busy with work to take care of him.
But this does not mean that he can grow up completely comfortably and freely.
They deserve to be scolded, trained, and brainwashed.
He--he's got everything.
Ms. Shen immediately frowned and said, "I was too relaxed with you at that time, so your academic performance was so poor!"
Hang Sizhou: “…Mom!” Could you please not say that to me in front of Xiao Hang!
Xiao Hang interrupted: "Most of the programs start recording on Friday and end on Sunday or Monday. I have also communicated with the school, and it will not affect Hanhan's studies."
Ms. Shen nodded with satisfaction and rolled her eyes at her son: "Look, Ah Hang is so organized in his work. You are so old, but you are still so reckless. I think you suffered from not studying hard back then!"
Hang Sizhou: “…”
Help! When will Ms. Shen, the old director of studies, really “retire”
Hang Sizhou couldn't help but turn his head to look at Xiao Hang.
It just so happened that Xiao Hang was also looking at him, with a faint smile in his eyes, like some kind of mockery.
Hang Sizhou angrily poked the braised pork in the bowl, imagining it was Xiao Hang's head, and tried to poke countless holes in it.
Halfway through the meal, Fu Haoyan called Xiao Hang.
After a slight gesture, Xiao Hang came to the balcony with his mobile phone.
"Brother Xiao, Qingqing has a premiere at around eight o'clock. Can you accompany me?" Whenever Fu Haoyan asked for something, he would be particularly flattering.
Xiao Hang looked back.
In the living room, Hang Sizhou and his mother were facing each other, talking about something.
The warm yellow light shines on the mother and son, creating a comfortable and harmonious atmosphere.
Just now, although Shen Minyun had been scolding Hang Sizhou, the intimacy and concern in her words could not be hidden.
Over the years, he has always been willing to accompany Hang Sizhou to his home for dinner, mostly because of this.
His thin lips moved: "Not tonight."
Fu Haoyan begged him: "Brother Xiao, President Xiao, please help me this time!"
Xiao Hang withdrew his gaze from Hang Sizhou and his son, and turned to the sky outside which was gradually becoming completely dark: "Jing Qing has been in your company for five years, right?"
"… Um."
"I remember his contract ends at the end of the year. Given his current status and position, there should be a lot of companies offering him olive branches, right?"
Fu Haoyan said dissatisfiedly: "Hey, hey, hey, what do you mean by saying this? Do you still consider yourself my brother?"
Xiao Hang lowered his voice: "I say this because I treat you as my brother. If you don't learn to take the initiative, you and Jing Qing will never have any story."
This touched Fu Haoyan's sore spot, and he fought back: "What about you and Hang Sizhou? You have been dragging your feet for so many years, and I have never seen you take the initiative!"
Whenever he mentioned Hang Sizhou, Xiao Hang would usually avoid the topic.
Unexpectedly, this time, Xiao Hang actually asked him back: "Guess what I'm doing now?"
"I'm having dinner at my mother-in-law's house."
Fu Haoyan: “Ah?”
This was the first time in so many years that he heard Xiao Hang call Hang Sizhou's mother "mother-in-law", and it was also the first time he told him that he was going to Hang Sizhou's house.
"You and Hang Sizhou? Have you found your passion again?"
Xiao Hang curled his lips: "It's okay, I'm hanging up."
Then, amid Fu Haoyan's screams, he decisively hung up the phone.
When he was about to push open the glass door, Xiao's mother's voice came from inside.
"Zhou Zhou, Xiao Hang was here just now so it was inconvenient for me to ask, did you ask Han Han's opinion on participating in that variety show this time? Is she willing?"
The big hand hanging above the door handle paused, and Xiao Hang took a step back, deciding not to disturb the conversation for the time being.
It was quiet outside, and the mother and son inside didn't try to lower their voices, so every word they said went straight into his ears clearly.
"Hanhan will definitely agree." Hang Sizhou said.
Ms. Shen: “Are you so sure?”
Hang Sizhou: "Actually, the main reason I took this variety show was because of her."
Hang Sizhou told Shen Minyun what he and Xiao Zhihan said when they were watching "Let's Travel Together" that day.
Those words touched Shen Minyun's heart to some extent: "Yes, no matter what kind of children they are, they all look forward to being with their parents and going out to play with them."
As she spoke, she thought of the past and looked at Hang Sizhou with some emotion, "I'm sorry, Sizhou, Mom is not a qualified mother, letting you always-"
Hang Sizhou lowered his eyes and interrupted her: "It's okay, haven't I grown up well?"
What's past is past, and the important thing is not to repeat the same mistakes.
Don't let Xiao Zhihan become another person of his past.
"I hope Xiao Zhihan will be happier."
Xiao Hang stood at the door and didn't move for a long time.
It was not until Shin Min-woon asked inside, "Has Ah Hang finished his call yet? The food is getting cold," that he walked out of the shadow of the balcony, opened the door and walked in.
"Is there something strange on my face? Why are you looking at me?"
After Xiao Hang made the phone call, she kept acting weird and looked at him with eyes that he couldn't understand.
The gaze was too direct, and even though Hang Sizhou tried to ignore it, he still felt uncomfortable.
While his mother was getting up to get some rice from the sideboard at the back, he protested.
Xiao Hang lowered his eyes, suddenly raised his chopsticks, picked up the largest piece of twice-cooked pork on the plate in front of him, and put it in his bowl.
Hang Sizhou's eyes widened: "Why the hell are you using your own chopsticks? There are serving chopsticks here. Can you be more hygienic?"
Xiao Hang glanced at him and said calmly, "Are you still so clear about the difference between you and me?"
Hang Sizhou wanted to get angry, but his mother had returned to the table and was looking at them with a smile. He pursed his lips and swallowed the sweet and sour pork that Xiao Hang had picked up for him "with his chopsticks".
-
After dinner, Ms. Shen said she was going outside to get something and asked the two of them to wait for her at home for a while.
As soon as Ms. Shen stopped talking, Hang Sizhou couldn't hold it back anymore and punched Xiao Hang on the back: "Don't do anything naughty in front of my mom in the future!"
After threatening people, Hang Sizhou walked past Xiao Hang and entered the kitchen.
Xiao Hang turned around and looked into the kitchen.
The little master who was always so spoiled and unwilling to do anything on weekdays actually took the initiative to roll up his sleeves and wash the dishes.
It can be seen that he seldom does these things. He is so clumsy even when applying detergent that after wiping for a long time, most of the stains on the dishes are still there.
Hang Sizhou washed for a long time, but there was no obvious result.
He turned around to get another dishcloth, and when he looked up, he saw Xiao Hang leaning against the door frame, looking at him intently.
What's wrong with this guy today? Why do I keep looking at him for no reason
Hang Sizhou said angrily: "What are you looking at? Have you never seen people wash dishes?"
"I don't remember anyone saying—"
Xiao Hang stretched out his tone, "A real man would never wash dishes?"
Hang Sizhou was so angry that he said, "Shut up, don't talk, no one will think you are dumb!"
Under normal circumstances, if Xiao Hang was provoked like this by Hang Sizhou, he would have already refuted or turned away.
But at this moment, he still stood there, looking at Hang Sizhou's profile seriously.
Looking at this "real man" with a fierce voice, rough movements, and who kept saying that he would never wash dishes, his white earlobes gradually turned a beautiful pink because of shame and anger.
Xiao Hang raised his wrist and slowly unbuttoned his cufflinks.
"What are you doing?" Noticing Xiao Hang rolling up his shirt sleeves and walking towards him, Hang Sizhou took a step back alertly like a cat with its fur standing on end.
Xiao Hang stood by the pool, picked up the rag soaked in the water, and then, in the surprised look from Hang Sizhou, he curved his lips and said, "I'll help you."
