Chapter 57 3 Shots
He Xinchao spent New Year's Day on a congested highway. He sat in the back seat, strapped in tightly by the seatbelt. The seat, along with the resting area for his feet, was completely cluttered with objects. He nudged himself slightly upward, poking his furry head out. His mother, sitting in the passenger seat, warned him, "He Xinchao, your seat feels like it's got needles in it. You just can't stay still. Be careful the box next to you doesn't fall and hit you."
He Xinchao ignored him and asked, "How long will it take?"
The father driving the car had to remind him, "You just asked that thirteen minutes ago."
He Xinchao found some paper to blow his nose, then threw it into the vomit bag he was about to use to get carsick. "I'm going to ask again."
His mother told him to behave himself, "If you keep asking, it will disturb Daddy."
He Xinchao was still unconvinced. "Then you can answer it, Mom. I can't disturb you for now."
Chen Yuan smiled, turned to look at her son, then turned to her husband and said, "You know what, he really does look a bit like Ah Li."
He Dongsheng scoffed, blaming his wife for being too materialistic. "You're marrying this person before you've even met him. You can't just give your son away to someone else just because Ah Li helped him!"
Chen Yuan didn't care, laughing at her for being materialistic, saying there was nothing she couldn't do. "If your sister can help your son, and I have to admit that he has her last name He instead of yours, then I will admit it. Do you think a position like that is easy to get? If he didn't have the same last name as his aunt, would Xixi be willing to help your son like this? Hey, don't deny it, He Dongsheng, this is the first time I've received help from your He family since I married you!"
He Dongsheng had no reason not to obey his wife, so he nodded and said, "Your idea is very dangerous. Now whoever feeds you is your mother. In the future, if Xixi takes a fancy to your son and wants to adopt him, you might be willing to change your son's surname to Zong."
Chen Yuan was completely mercenary. "Ah, as long as your son still recognizes me, as long as Xixi still wants him to be around me, I'm willing. Following his aunt, he'll have a bright future in studies, work, and even a career in government. What else would I want? You tell me!"
He Dongsheng smiled until his crow's feet appeared on his face. He took the steering wheel and glanced at his wife solemnly, "Are you really willing to do this?"
Chen Yuan snorted, "You useless fellow. You're just this mean, how could anyone want your son? Not to mention that he's too old to be raised properly, even if he were willing, the boy's family wouldn't agree. What are you thinking?"
He Dongsheng murmured, as if he had caught his wife making a rare mistake, "Maybe the man will really agree."
Then he explained to his wife, "You don't know Xixi, your boyfriend. When he chased her to the wedding, you could tell he was a playboy, full of courage and calculation. Let's put it this way, with her family background and bad character, if she really wanted to break up with Xixi, even if Xixi were to compete with her current boyfriend or his wife, she might not even have dozens of numbers. But this guy just can't break up. He's been separated from Xixi for five years, and he won't look for anyone else. Of course, he won't let Xixi look for anyone else either."
Chen Yuan was puzzled, "Why wouldn't he go find Xixi?"
"You know nothing about the word 'young master'." He Dongsheng sighed harshly, "Do you think he's attracted to the He family's in-laws? No, it's purely because of Xixi's preferences. Just like when he chased her to a wedding, it didn't matter who married who, the most important thing was that he and Xixi were together."
Chen Yuan was furious that her husband thought her too simply. "Of course I know it's because of love for your wife that you can extend it to your wife. Of course I know they're helping your son because of your girlfriend. How could I not know that? I mean, with a family like theirs, how could they really allow a woman to bring a child with them?"
"I didn't believe it before, but now that Xixi and the man are back together, I believe it. Xixi said on the phone that because she was the one who came up with the name Xinchao, Zong Chi just helped her on a whim."
Xixi's original words: "He said he'd do it, and it's basically done. Let him do it. Don't feel any pressure. He's just that kind of person. He loves to be around." You and sister-in-law, don't dwell on the process, focus on the outcome. As long as the result is what you want, that's fine. How we achieve it is our business. I'm going to repay this favor.
He Dongsheng asked Xixi on the phone at that time, "Why are you paying it back?"
"I will repay him the way he treated me." Xixi said.
He Dongsheng still remembered the time when they were talking in the courtyard. Ah Li was worried about the mosquitoes in Zongchi's room, so she went to bring him mosquito coils. She said in the same tone, "I don't look at the results, I look at the process. Who said the process can't be scored?" Ah Sheng said that Ah Li was too pampering her boyfriend. She casually slapped a mosquito on her arm to death, and said with indisputable fact: "There are too many mosquitoes. I don't care about him. He might wake up the whole room in the middle of the night. You have to believe this."
-
"What's wrong with my name?" He Xinchao suddenly interrupted out of curiosity.
His mother told him that because your aunt is the most educated and promising child in the family, your father asked your aunt to give you a name to share her joy. Your aunt hopes that you will have a new beginning every year.
"Sure enough, your aunt has a golden mouth."
He Dongsheng scolded his wife in a low voice. He knew the ways of the world and he didn't want his child to indulge and submit too early.
He Xinchao, however, didn't have much of a feeling. He simply felt that with a new place and a new school, he would definitely be gone. As for the quota they were talking about, he disliked it even more. Perhaps if it hadn't worked out, he wouldn't have had to come to this new city. Thinking of this, he disliked his aunt even more.
After all, the other party was elusive and they had only met a few times, but he still received unanimous approval and praise from his parents. He didn't like things that were too authoritative, such as the terrible lunch at school but every parent had a five-star satisfaction rating, or the new teaching materials distributed by the class could be freely ordered but had a 100% response rate.
The car got stuck in another round of traffic jam, and He Xinchao collapsed again, secretly making up his mind: he would mess up everything in front of him. When he saw his aunt who seemed to have everything good, he would definitely ask her: "Mom said you have a golden mouth. Is it a gift for being good at studying? I want to test it out. Can you take me back?"
*
Zong Chi was unemployed until the 28th, and the next few days were filled with non-stop socializing and busyness.
The acquisition was completed, and the celebration party and year-end rewards were held in Shanghai together. During this period, he had to go back to Singapore one day.
Before departure, Secretary Huang came over to discuss the itinerary with him and helped him take his passport and luggage away in advance. When he came down from upstairs, the driver was waiting under the outer corridor. Perhaps the noise he made when he came in to pick up the suitcase was a bit loud, and it hit a rain gear storage bucket next to the shoe-changing bench, and when it fell to the floor with a clang, Secretary Huang seemed to have eyes behind her and felt the murderous intent of her boss behind her.
Zong Chi stood on a high place and saw the driver hurriedly picking up the bucket. He tutted and exploded along with his secretary, "What use do I have for you!"
Secretary Huang went downstairs quietly, took the things from the driver's hand, helped to organize them, and then reminded him softly, "Okay, take it out and wait for me in the car."
As they were talking, the sliding door of the living room by the stairs suddenly opened, and He Dongli, wearing a shawl, asked, "What's wrong?"
She looked up at Zong Chi who was standing halfway up the stairs, then glanced at Secretary Huang at the entrance. The latter suddenly realized that they had disturbed the hostess's sleep.
Zong Chi walked down the stairs slowly. He didn't respond to his girlfriend's question, but asked her, "How is it? Does it still hurt?"
He Dongli looked unhappy. She took an ibuprofen before lying down. When she heard the noise outside, she thought something serious had happened. Then the person who came up to her added, "Why did you get up? It's nothing. I just knocked something over."
He Dongli pushed away Zong Chi's hand that was placed on her forehead. He was angry at his subordinate, and she was angry at him, "There's nothing wrong, why are you yelling!"
Zong Chi choked, "I clearly didn't do anything."
The man at the door said objectively and truthfully in front of his secretary, "Dragging chairs, pulling drawers, and kicking and stomping—all of that was you."
Secretary Huang couldn't help laughing when he heard this, but it was too late when he covered his mouth.
Zongchi argued, "That's because the carpet workers are on holiday."
He Dongli ignored him and went back to catch up on his sleep. Zong Chi was standing at the door when he wanted to chase him in, but Secretary Huang followed him in and reminded him, "Are you sure you're going to the airport tomorrow?"
Someone nodded randomly.
Secretary Huang added, "Then you have to leave early, and remember to turn on your phone."
Zong Chi gestured for them to leave. Secretary Huang, seeing that her boss wouldn't dare raise his voice again, asked with concern, "Is Dr. He okay?"
"Headache."
"Menstrual period?" Secretary Huang asked again.
Zong Chi's face immediately revealed an unnamed gloom. His silence exuded a sense of oppression, which immediately made the questioner regret his words. Secretary Huang quickly nodded to say goodbye, put on her high heels, and then spoke truthfully, "Actually, it's the same for me. Medication isn't working. Dr. He and I are both long-term coffee addicts. If I abruptly stopped drinking coffee during my period and occasionally got a migraine that didn't work with medication, it might be a severe coffee withdrawal reaction."
Secretary Huang was about to run away when Zong Chi called her back, "So what are we going to do?"
"Hmm?" The secretary turned around.
Zong Chi blamed her for not being smart and couldn't help but say, "What's the point of you saying something without context? I asked you how to relieve it, drink coffee? Damn, this is like being addicted to drugs."
Secretary Huang pulled a box of coffee candies from her bag. It was something her girlfriend had prepared for her. She drank iced American coffee year-round, but couldn't handle it during her period. Occasionally, when she got a bad migraine, she'd take one. She joked with her girlfriend, "I don't know if the medicine was taking effect or if you were just being overbearing."
Zong Chi accepted the candy box from his secretary, still offering a harsh response. He flipped through the label on the box, reading the manufacturer, ingredients, and expiration date. "Does this stuff have an agent in mainland China? Has it passed food safety certification?"
Secretary Huang thought her question was unnecessary. Of course, she was clearly just concerned about Dr. He, and her boss, who was a hindrance to her, was too much trouble. Just as Secretary Huang was about to reach out to retrieve her treasured shot, Zong Chi slid open the tin, poured out a piece, and popped it into his mouth. It was a coffee candy, and he bit it with a crisp crunch and swallowed it in a few bites.
Without waiting for Secretary Huang to react with surprise, Zong Chi acted as if he had accepted it with reluctance and said, "Go out and help me close the door. I'll see you at the airport tomorrow."
Secretary Huang opened her mouth but finally held it back. She remembered that one of the Twenty-Four Filial Exemplars was to taste the medicine herself. It was really weird. She really saw the real-life version of the Twenty-Four Filial Exemplars boyfriend.
*
Zong Chi tasted one of the coffee candies and fed it to He Dongli an hour later.
He Dongli couldn't help laughing when she heard how he got it from his secretary and how he was desperate to try any possible means. She asked him, "How do you say it works? How do you say it doesn't work?"
"If it works, I'll negotiate with her to be the agent for the candy. If it doesn't, I'll return the candy to her. Why are there so many things to say or not to say?"
He Dongli ate one with a smile and held it in her mouth. One of her cheeks was puffed up. Zong Chi poked her there with his finger.
He asked her, "How is it?"
"If the effect is really that fast, you can't introduce agents."
He was relieved to see that she was still in the mood to talk about the efficacy and compliance of the medicine. He asked her, "Does it always feel this bad? You didn't feel this bad before."
He Dongli ate candy with her eyes closed. For the first time, she willingly admitted in front of him that she had become increasingly afraid of bright light in recent years. She could no longer stay up late as she used to. Occasionally, during her period, she would get a splitting headache, but she would still have to go on stage even after taking a sustained-release tablet. Lying exhausted on the bench in the dressing room, she wondered if all this hardship was worth it. Would it really have been much better if she hadn't studied medicine in the first place?
Zong Chi wanted to tell her about his father's ex-wife several times. In the past, he had indeed thought about it and even slandered her choice because of this grudge. Now, hearing her complaints and even her pain, he did not feel relieved or lucky at all. He did not feel that she was not worth it, which indirectly proved that he was right. He warmed his hands, went to her solar plexus, and helped her press it. In short, the most important thing at the moment was that she did not feel any pain, not to mention her saying stupid things. "If you don't study medicine, what can you learn? I'm used to your work style. After New Year's Day, the upstairs and the stairs will be carpeted, and the noise level will be maximized. I will fully cooperate with you, and you are not allowed to give up halfway. If you do, I will look down on you, because I don't like people who give up halfway!"
He Dongli couldn't help but open her eyes slightly as she listened to his words, which were not pleasant but rather intimidating. It was already noon outside, and the curtains were drawn in the room, casting a hazy orange light on the room. She was about to duck under the covers, thinking he was pressing too hard, when she turned her head away, and Zong Chi's two index fingers nearly pierced her eyes.
"If you want to blind me, just say so."
When Zong Chi took her hand away to check, he couldn't help laughing. She rubbed it again and again, and her eyelashes were wet and red. He asked her again, "Are you feeling better?"
He Dongli hummed helplessly, "Three shots."
"What?"
"The coffee candy you snatched is worth three shots. Even the most painful withdrawal will be instantly revived."
Hearing her sarcastic tone, Zong Chi felt relieved and stood up from the bed. "What do you mean by robbing? She clearly gave it to me. No, it was given to you." After saying that, he was about to go out and told her to sleep a little longer.
He Dongli slept until around six in the evening, and Aunt Tang had already come over to make dinner. Because she was on her period and had a headache, Aunt Tang had specially made chicken soup and wontons. The wonton wrappers were hand-rolled, paper-thin.
Just based on this skill, He Dongli felt that she was far better than her own mother.
As she was thinking this, Aunt Tang unexpectedly said that there were still a lot of wonton wrappers left, and if Xixi's mother didn't mind, she could bring them to her mother to make wontons.
He Dongli was just thinking about what to say when Aunt Tang continued, "Xiao Chi said that you guys are going to treat your brother's family to a meal in the next couple of days, and your mother will be there too. Maybe I'll make some wontons by then, and you can bring some for your mother to try."
As he was saying this, someone heard the commotion and came downstairs. While Aunt Tang was preparing, He Dongli sat at the dining table, drinking water, and questioned someone, "How did it become our treat, and my mom is here too?"
"Isn't it?" Zong Chi looked surprised.
He Dongli wore a thin, round-necked black sweater and a rose-red shawl. She still looked a little tired, but the contrasting colors lifted her spirits. Sitting under the lamp, she looked like a beautiful woman.
Zong Chi was delighted, so he played the part of surprise. "But I've already arranged everything. I've arranged a welcoming banquet for your brother and sister-in-law, and I've also arranged for the property management of their current residence, including the flower baskets for greetings..."
"Aside from the flower basket, there's no fruit basket?" He Dongli glanced at him.
Zong Chi agreed with her, "You can add more at any time if you feel it is necessary."
He Dongli reached out and punched him in the chest. Aunt Tang came over with a tray of food and happened to see this scene. Xiao Chi complained to Xixi, "Can't you fight somewhere else?"
What Xixi said was, "You are not a mirror person. When your heart grows to the right, I will move to another place."
The chicken wontons were delicious, but because they were a little oily, He Dongli was too impatient to take the first one and burned it. Zong Chi, who was on the phone, scooped one onto his spoon, but didn't eat it for a long time. Finally, he put the spoon to her mouth and, without waiting for her to say anything, forced it into her mouth.
He cooked it several times in a row. Only after he hung up the phone did He Dongli push the spoon he was holding back and said, "You eat yours, I have some."
Zong Chi laughed at her, "But I see you're too impatient, like you're ravenous. If I don't feed you, I'm afraid you won't have enough..."
In front of their nanny, He Dongli suddenly suggested buying a sofa, "One meter eighty is not long enough, if it's not long enough, you can lie down and stretch your legs, okay?"
Some people instantly calmed down and spread their hands, indicating that they had to stop talking.
However, halfway through the meal, He Dongli suddenly lost his appetite. Zong Chi was always distracted, no matter how delicious the food was. He'd start arranging and directing things the moment he finished his meal. He told Aunt Tang not to come over for the next two days while he was gone, and to stay at the villa and focus on supervising the construction. While supervising, she should also keep an eye on the moving company moving some items from the suburban villa. He had already laid out the layout. He also wanted He Dongli to decide on the pattern of the carpet quickly. "Also, please get your brother and sister-in-law's menu. I'll be back on the evening of the 2nd. Give me your answer by tomorrow morning."
He Dongli ate the last wonton in the bowl. "I'll give you an answer right now. No need to read it, just decide for yourself."
"It doesn't matter if you don't want to see it, just show it to your mother."
"My mom went with us, so she doesn't need to see it."
"You blame me for acting on my own?" The wontons in Zongchi's bowl had turned into a mess.
"You are wronging me." She said coldly, then stood up and left.
*
It was not until the evening that He Dongli discovered that Zong Chi had already assigned the luggage to her secretary to pack at noon, and now she had skipped even this step.
She had to find something else to do, watching Feng Qianxu's new variety show while peeling an orange. In the latest episode, Feng Qianxu chatted with the guests about how she and her first love ended. It was her mother who wanted to introduce him to someone, and he agreed. Feng Qianxu criticized the blind date to pieces. Her mother asked her why she was so critical. Feng Qianxu replied, "You're the first mother-in-law to introduce someone to her son-in-law!"
So the relationship was exposed in a hurry, and Feng Qianxu only realized afterwards that Zou Yan did it on purpose.
He Dongli agreed wholeheartedly, and immediately sent this cut to Zou Yan with a note: Cha Cha's.
Zou Yan replied after a while: Not as good as someone.
Someone was standing behind her. He didn't read the content of the conversation, but only saw the neatly written words "Zou Yan" on the phone. He threw her BlackBerry back to her in annoyance.
It was like throwing a bomb, blowing up her plate and the orange flesh she had peeled with great difficulty.
She continued to ignore him. Before going to bed, she placed a plate of overly peeled oranges on the bedside table. Someone grumbled at her, "He Dongli, you're probably the only one in the world who eats oranges this pervertedly. I'm telling you!"
"Yes, absolutely."
Zong Chi was so angry that he almost gnashed his teeth. "Eat another one and let me see!"
She had taken a shower and brushed her teeth, but she responded to his provocation and actually ate one, picking it up and putting it in her mouth with her hands.
The person sitting on the bed was furious, "Don't think I'll let you go just because you have your period."
"You didn't let me when I didn't come. Wake up."
"He Dongli, you're yelling at me about Zou Yan again!"
"Stop being crazy, what does this have to do with Zou Yan?"
"So what are we talking about so late at night?"
"We talked about the patient and how his tea art was not yet perfect."
"What?" Zong Chi was momentarily confused, but he took her words as an explanation. He reluctantly accepted them, lifting the blanket slightly for her to come up.
He Dongli then saw a rabbit hidden under the quilt. When she thought of what the rabbit had been through, she became even more furious. She ordered him, "Take the rabbit away!"
Zong Chi refused. Seeing that she wouldn't move, he dragged her over and said, "Do you really have to quarrel with me before I go on a business trip?"
"I said no."
"What happened that night? Who asked you to do that? Are you blaming me for taking the initiative to treat your brother and his wife? You clearly promised me that. Don't tell me that what you said in bed can't be taken seriously. My heart can't bear it."
He Dongli didn't have time to joke with him. She said that Zou Yan's tea art was far from passing, compared to someone else.
"What did you write on the welcoming flower basket for Ah Sheng and the others?"
"What can I say? Welcome to settle down or something like that."
"What's the signature?"
"Xixi, Zongchi congratulate together."
“I knew it!”
After hearing this, Zong Chi grabbed her and the rabbit in his arms. "Then what are you so angry about?"
"I'm obviously not angry. On the contrary, I just don't have anything to be happy about." She threw his pillow and the rabbit to the end of the bed, and said softly but authoritatively, "If you really can't live without this rabbit, even if you move to a new place, you must keep it with you. Just live with it."
The bed was not that big, and the young master had already made the most of it. He couldn't even think of sleeping at the foot of the bed. He threw the rabbit under the bed, moved the pillow back to its original place, and the noise he made when he lay down was enough to make the bed collapse.
He Dongli became even angrier. "Do you really need to be so excited just to go back? Can you calm down a bit?"
"Should I calm down? Wait, when did I get excited?"
He Dongli didn't answer. He leaned against the headboard and ate another piece of orange.
To be honest, he really couldn't stand the way she ate. In the past, she would just bite a little into the orange, suck out the juice inside, and leave the outer skin. Now her patience was even more frightening. She peeled it so cleanly and picked it up and chewed it. Zong Chi looked very uncomfortable and took her plate. There were still several pieces of flesh left, and he put them all into his mouth. After eating, he said to her, "Who taught you that? You can't eat it like this. It's hard and perverted."
He Dongli looked at the bare plate, not angry. She was just about to go brush her teeth when Zong Chi grabbed her and said, "You haven't answered my question yet! Why are you saying I'm excited to go back?"
"Isn't it? The luggage and passports were packed out long ago, and the nanny doesn't need to show up. The arrangements are so flawless that people who don't know would think it would be three to five years before you go back." After saying this, He Dongli was about to get up, but Zong Chi grabbed her sleeve and she sat back mechanically without looking at him at all.
Zong Chi became even more aggressive. He moved closer to her, finally pressing his leg against her sleeve, causing her collar to fall to her shoulders. In his embarrassment, He Dongli suddenly exerted great strength and easily pushed over the large Buddha statue on the bed.
He collapsed on the quilt, listening to the footsteps going to the bathroom, and laughed triumphantly, "I think I know why you are angry, Doctor He. You don't want me to leave."
"That's a ghost!"
Hearing her frantic rebuttal, Zong Chi became even more unrestrained. He leaped up to retrieve his rabbit and nervously complained to the owner who had just returned from brushing his teeth, "Alright, it's really not appropriate for you, a substitute, to stay in bed. She'll get angry. She's very petty and will even get jealous of a rabbit. How about this, you stay in my office. When she ignores me, I'll come find you, ah!"
The next second, He Dongli really rushed over, and she really wanted to sew his mouth shut.
Zong Chi threw the rabbit aside and caught her. He embraced her and carried her back to the room, assuring her, "I will come back, I will definitely come back. You are here, where can I go?"
At the end of the quarrel, He Dongli, perhaps because of her menstrual period, was very emotionally unstable. She leaned on Zong Chi's shoulder, as a response to his invitation to the banquet, "If you don't come back on time, I won't notify my mother. If you bounce the check again or can't come back, Zong Chi, your credit rating with her will really drop to zero."
Zong Chi smiled, his breath filled with the aroma of oranges. "Then isn't it even more rude to hastily inform her, huh?"
He Dongli was rarely willful, "No matter. Come back first and we'll talk."
"If a welcoming banquet isn't held when people arrive first, what's the point of calling it a welcoming banquet?"
"Don't worry, you've already given them a gift that's even better than the one at the welcoming banquet. They can't find fault with you."
Zong Chi inexplicably felt that this word of relief was more grounding than steadiness.
*
He Dongli had originally planned to rest on January 2nd. Zong Chi was already on the return flight when she received a call from Ah Sheng, who said that Xixi and the others were so thoughtful and that the welcome home flower basket was so heartwarming.
He Dongli asked his brother and sister-in-law to have a good rest first. They would meet in the evening and he would welcome them.
Then he called Yu Xiaohan, hesitated for a long time, and finally said it clearly. First, he said that Ah Sheng and the others had arrived, and second, Zong Chi wanted to treat them to dinner and wanted to invite Yu Xiaohan to join.
Yu Xiaohan said indifferently, "Are you treating your brother and sister-in-law, and also treating me?"
"Mother."
"Humph, I'm no longer a member of the He family anyway. It's only natural for you and your boyfriend to deal with your brother and sister-in-law. I won't go."
"Mom, I don't care whether you're from the He family or not, but you'll always be my mom, and that won't change. Every word I said to you that day was sincere. This time, not only did he bow to you, but I did too. To be honest with you, he had planned this meal a long time ago, but I was afraid he'd be too busy to write back, so I kept it in suspense and didn't inform you. Mom, he gave me the exact information, so I finally had the courage to tell you, Mom."
Yu Xiaohan was silent for a long time on the other end of the phone, and finally said sternly, "Don't expect me to say anything nice to him, just wait and see!"
He Dongli easily exposed his mother, "You wouldn't. You only teach your children behind closed doors. You wouldn't let Ah Sheng and the others watch you make a fool of yourself."
Yu Xiaohan turned around and sneered at Xixi, "That's my godson. Who the hell is he? He can only cheat and deceive my daughter!"
On this day, after finally coordinating the two sides, something went wrong on He Dongli's side. The hospital called him urgently, and He Dongli had to rush back to the hospital for an emergency operation. At that time, Zong Chi was about to land, and not only did he not see his girlfriend coming to pick him up at the airport, he was also stood up by someone who was the most righteous person:
Xiaochi, there's urgent work at the hospital, I have to rush back to the stage. I've almost finished talking to my mom, so please pick her up first and then we can rush to the hotel to meet Ah Sheng and the others.
I'll try to go there as soon as I'm done.
Sorry, [hug][love].
