Chapter 357 That nightâ¦Fang Diandian suddenly blushes.
But she hears Tang Cao say, âWhy do you still eat? Donât you have a full stomach? Every time we eat, you eat more than Xiaopang. How can you eat so much?â
âDo you want to say that I am fat?â Fang Diandian has no romantic idea. She feels herself too foolish to have a hope for Tang Cao again. This guy is indeed an idiot!
âI didnât!â Tang Cao has a wronged expression. He doesnât dare to offend Fang Diandian. He says piteously, âIf you finish eating, Iâll take you home.â
Fang Diandian doesnât believe his kindness, âYou donât want to see me, do you?â
âI am not! I donât!â Tang Cao hasnât already known what to say. Chen Xiaopang seems to have finally realized something. He leans in with laughter and says, âDiandian, let him send you home. He must have something to say to you.â
Fang Diandian is full. Those guys are with girls accompanying and the rest of the activity is certainly not suitable for her. So she stands up and says, âLetâs leave!â
âGive me a ride on the way.â Chen Xiaopang smiles obnoxiously.
Tang Cao wants to stare Chen Xiaopang to death with his eyes. Chen Xiaopang pretends not to see it and gallantly follows Fang Diandian.
When the three leave the room, one of the girls curls her lips and says, âIs that Miss Fang Childe Tianâs friend? Why havenât I seen her in the circle of celebrities?â
âYou havenât seen many people.â Another rich second generation scoffs.
Childe Tian has drunk a little too much. He hugs the girls and laughs, âDonât be so curious. The Second Childe Tang doesnât like to play, so you have no chance. As for Miss Fang, she is his darling. If you offend her, we canât save you!â
They have been playing with Tang Cao for so many years, but they havenât seen him fall in love with any girl. But Tang Cao takes Fang Diandian out to play every day. Each time he orders the dishes she likes to eat, although his bark is worse than his bite. They all know that Fang Diandian is definitely unusual in Tang Caoâs heart.
They hear Chen Xiaopang say that Tang Family members also like Fang Diandian, so she will definitely become the Young Mistress of Tang Family in the futureâ¦
âDonât look at me like that!â Chen Xiaopang lights a cigarette and leans against the co-pilot, âIt was you who blabbered and didnât say directly.â
âNonsense! How could I say when you such a third wheel was here?â Tang Cao watches Fang Diandian enter the housing estate and canât wait to kick Chen Xiaopang out of the car.
Chen Xiaopang is stunned, âDo you really have something to say? You wanted to express your love, didnât you?â
âForget it. Nothingâ¦â Tang Cao thought about it just now. Now it is not the time to express his love.
In case Ning Lingshanâs case is not handled well, Fang Diandian must think that he expressed his love to her because he had made a mistake. His sister is right! He has to settle the matter and then expresses his love to Fang Diandian, or it will be unfair to her.
âWhat relationship do we have? You have something to hide from me?â
Tang Cao glances around and starts the car to leave, âWhat can I hide from you?â
âThere must be something wrong with you.â Chen Xiaopang looks at his watch, âGo to the bar we often go to.â
âI donât drink. I want to go home.â Tang Cao now has a shadow over drinking.
Of course Chen Xiaopang doesnât agree. He struggles hard to pull Tang Cao to go. He opens a private room and begins to interrogate Tang Cao, âYou tell me the truth or drink up this bottle.â
âI told you not to drink.â Tang Cao frowns and pushes it away.
Chen Xiaopangâs mobile phone rings. He answers it and says a few words. After hanging up, he glances at Tang Cao, âTong Yue said that he was coming.â
âWhy is he coming here?â Tang Cao asks curiously, âDidnât he say that something had happened at Su Tianâs school these days? He has been busy helping to deal with it.â
Tong Yue arrives soon and asks Tang Cao as soon as he comes in, âCome on. Whatâs going on?â
ââ¦What?â Tang Cao shows an expression of a guilty conscience, âWhatâs going on?â
Tong Yue sneers, âYou asked me about your drunkenness before and your sister was aside to cover for you. I felt there was something wrong. Ning Lingshan is pregnant. Is the child yours?â
âF**k!â Chen Xiaopang jumps up, âIs it so shocking?â
Tang Cao also gets a fright, âHow do you know it?â
âI did investigate.â Tong Yue glances at him, âYour brother-in-law is also investigating it.â
Tang Cao grabs his hand and says, âHave you found anything? Whose child is that?â
âThere is no way to prove whose child it is, but the only man contacted Ning Lingshan during the last two months was only you. You two stayed in the hotel all night, so we can only suspect that the child is yours.â
Chen Xiaopang curses, âWas it the matter that last time you two were drunk? Didnât you say that you didnât do anything and slept through the night?â
âThatâs how I woke up!â Tang Cao grabs his hair a few times, âAnd Ning Lingshan herself said nothing had happened.â
Chen Xiaopang curses several times again, and then says with a lucky expression, âLuckily I didnât f**k chase her. This woman is not a little poor thing, but obviously a tiger!â
âYouâd better pray that your brother-in-law can find something now, or you will at least have to take the blame until the baby is born.â Tong Yue sees Tang Caoâs appearance which is like life without love and gives him another blow, âOf course, maybe itâs true that the child is really yours.â
âIt will be known until the child is born for paternity testing.â Chen Xiaopang says in a tone of indifference, âWhy are you nervous now?â
Tang Cao holds his head in his hands, âBut I donât dare to tell Fang Diandian that I really didnât do anything that night. If Ning Lingshan had planned it, I am afraid that Iâ¦â
âIf Brother Ruoxian cannot find anything, I suggest you ask Ning Lingshan.â Tong Yue says, âIf she says that the child is not yours, let her sign to show that you have nothing to do with her.â
Chen Xiaopang snuffs out his cigarette, âWhat if she doesnât admit it now in order to protect herself? What will we do when the baby is born but it is still Tang Caoâs child?â
âItâs too easy for us to make a baby to disappear, isnât it?â Tong Yueâs eyes flash across their faces, âI just come here to say that itâs not that bad. The key is Ning Lingshanâs attitude now.â
Tang Cao looks at him blankly, âWhat if she admits it?â
âXiaopang just said that she might not admit it in order to protect herself.â Tong Yue frowns, âForget it. Let your sister ask about this and tell her what I said. Your sister is smarter than you. She must understand what it means.â
Tang Cao returns home with a heavy heart and is called to the study by Lang Ruoxian after supper. Tang Duo and Bai Susu are playing with the twins in the living room. Tang Duo also winks at him, presumably to show that he can go at ease.
âWhat are you going to do?â What Lang Ruoxian has investigated is similar to what Tong Yue has found. There is no problem with Ning Lingshanâs background. The only breakthrough at present isâ¦
âSince you are not sure, let her speak for herself.â
Tang Cao huddles in the corner of the sofa and nods piteously, âTong Yue said the same thing, but he said to let my sister go, for fear that I might screw up.â
Lang Ruoxian narrows his eyes and says with disgust, âYou are such a big man but still let my wife worry about you.â
Tang Cao thinks: Woo, Iâm really sorry for youâ¦
âIf you go out to drink again and get too drunk like a dead dog, I will throw you directly into the city moat.â Lang Ruoxian warns his hapless brother-in-law, âDonât let Mom know about this for the time being. You should behave yourself to stay at home.â
Tang Cao keeps nodding like pounding garlic into pulp. Even if Lang Ruoxian doesnât warn him, he wonât dare to go out to play. After so many years of playing, he finally has had an accident because of playing. It happened just when he wanted to chase the girl he loves. However bitter he is, Tang Cao even has no place to cry. After that, he behaves himself to stay at home. Bai Susu still wonders why he suddenly behaves himself.
âMs. Tang, do you look for me for something?â Ning Lingshan sits sheepishly in the private room, nervously looking at Tang Duo opposite.
Tang Duo smiles, âDonât worry. Wait till you are full.â
Last night she called Ning Lingshan and asked her to have lunch together this noon. Ning Lingshan was very nervous on the phone, but she did not refuse to come with an excuse. Tang Duo obeys what Lang Ruoxian taught her and doesnât hurry to ask her. She begins to eat slowly.
âThe sweet and sour fish here is very delicious. Do you want to have a try?â She pushes the plate.
Ning Lingshan hesitates, but still carefully stretches out chopsticks.
âForget it!â Tang Duo suddenly raises her hand to stop Ning Lingshan, âCanât you vomit after eating fish?â
Ning Lingshanâs face turns pale, âTang⦠What do you mean, Ms. Tang?â
âYou donât understand what I mean?â Tang Duo puts down her chopsticks, âTo be honest, I didnât expect you to have this kind of thoughts. You lied to everyone. If you didnât target my brother, I still admire you.â
Ning Lingshan stands up hurriedly and spills the cup on the table. She runs to the door of the private room without taking care of her wet clothes.
âIf you walk out of this door, I wonât invite you to dinner next time.â Tang Duo says flatly, âYou should know that Tang Family has the ability to make you disappear in Yanjing without being noticed.â
Ning Lingshan walks slowly over and looks up with tears streaming down her face, âMs. Tang, please let me go! I really donât want anything. I will go back to my hometown tomorrow and promise never to come to Yanjing again.â
âThis is not the solution to the problem.â Tang Duo hands her a piece of paper towel, âI want you to tell me honestly what happened that night after you and Tang Cao were drunk.â
Ning Lingshan looks at her suddenly. Tang Duo smiles, âYouâve been pregnant for a month, and the time is right. Itâs easy for us to investigate, so you shouldnât think to hide anything, which is good for everyone.â
âThat⦠That night we drank a lot of wine and when we entered the room, we couldnât remember anything.â Ning Lingshan cries and says, âI woke up in the middle of the night and saw Tang Cao sleeping on the ground.â
She was afraid that Tang Cao would catch a cold and wanted to help him to bed.
âI didnât expect that Tang Cao also woke up. He just hugged me, called me Diandian and pressed me to the bed.â Ning Lingshan bites her teeth and says, âI started to struggle. We both fell to the ground, but I couldnât break free. His strength was too big.â
After that, it was beyond her control. Ning Lingshan even passed out in the middle, and when she woke up, it was all over.
âI knew that Tang Cao liked Miss Fang, and I had never had excessive demand of anything.â Ning Lingshan wipes her tears, âSo I cleaned up the room and made everything look as if nothing had happened.â
Tang Duo silently hears her finish saying. Every sentence makes the bottom of her heart cold. Finally, she holds her forehead and thinks that this is a dead end. Tang Cao, the silly boy is totally finished.
