Chapter 355 Tang Cao is Scared to be Silly
Tang Cao runs home hurriedly. He shouts as soon as he enters the house, “Sister! What’s the matter? Are you going to divorce my brother-in-law?”
“...Why? Do you really want us to divorce?” Tang Duo walks out of the kitchen and rolls her eyes toward him, “If you have guts, you can say that when Lang Ruoxian is at home.”
“I can’t do so.” Tang Cao shamelessly leans in, “How can I offend Brother Ruoxian who grasps the economic lifeline?”
Tang Duo laughs at him, “You are just loquacious! After hearing what I say, I will see whether you will still be loquacious.”
“Then you go ahead!” Tang Cao slumps on the sofa.
Tang Duo kicks him, “Follow me to go upstairs.”
“What is it on earth?” Tang Cao is even more curious, “And you hide it from Mom and them.”
Tang Duo ignores him. They go to the baby’s room to see the sleeping twins first, and then they go to the balcony on the second floor.
“Tang Cao...” Her voice lets Tang Cao quiver.
“Sister, please speak quickly. Stop beating about the bush.”
Tang Duo says, “Ning Lingshan is pregnant. Do you know?”
“What?” Tang Cao is stunned, and then he asks with a surprised expression, “It is not a big deal that she is pregnant, but when did she have a boyfriend...”
Seeing that he has not yet understood the situation, Tang Duo tells him directly that Ning Lingshan had no boyfriend. The only man she contacted in the past two months is Tang Cao.
“...Sister, what do you mean?” Tang Cao finally finds out something is wrong. The pupils grow bigger and bigger, and his eyeballs almost fly out, “Do you suspect that the baby is mine?”
Tang Duo gives him an expression that he finally understands.
“How can it be possible?” Tang Cao jumps a few times like a startled rabbit, “I said that we were all drunk that day at the hotel and nothing happened. When we woke up in the morning, our clothes were neatly put on. And when I woke up, I still slept on the carpet.”
“Are you sure that you remember what happened when you were drunk?”
Tang Cao is speechless.
“I should... Should remember...” He is somewhat unsure.
When Tong Yue played with them before, he dealt with the aftermath of drunkenness each time and threw Tang Cao and Chen Xiaopang into the hotel. The two would snore loudly in their sleep through the night. Later, in the years when Tang Duo disappeared, Tang Cao seldom drank, let alone got drunk.
After Tang Duo came back, he and Chen Xiaopang began to live a dissolute and free life again. Tong Yue basically did not play with them because he had Su Tian. Both of them were more restrained and would not get too drunk like dead dogs. There was always one person who was soberer and dealt with the aftermath. Of course, it was usually Tang Cao.
“I’ll ask Tong Yue.” Tang Cao is in a cold sweat and calls Tong Yue immediately.
When he asks what his reaction was when he was drunk, Tong Yue says flatly.
“Sleep. You are much cuter at that time than when you are awake.”
Tang Cao says, “...Had I done something else? Then when I woke up from alcohol and forgot?”
“No.” Tong Yue says slowly, “But you really didn’t remember what had happened after you woke up from alcohol. Several times you even hugged Xiaopang to sleep. It was I that separated you two.”
Tang Cao is speechless.
Since the phone uses hands-free, Tang Duo hears all about it. Tang Cao is so scared that he is unconscious. Tang Duo explains to Tong Yue and hangs up, “Wake up. It’s not time to faint.”
“That night, did I really...” Tang Cao frantically pulls his hair and turns several times on the spot, and then he feels something wrong.
“No!” He opens his mouth, “If something really happened, how could we wake up the next day and find everything in order? Also, if I didn’t know it, it was OK. But Ning Lingshan should have known what had happened to her body...”
Tang Duo rolls her eyes, “What if she volunteered or even took the initiative?”
“...F**k!” Tang Cao is shocked and jumps a few more times, “So she had been coveting my body, and then deliberately got drunk with me.”
“What is the value to covet your body?” Tang Duo says grumpily, “If this is true, what she covets is your identity as the Second Childe in Tang Family.”
There is a silence of moment between the sister and the brother. They look at each other and don’t know what to say.
After a long time, Tang Cao cries loudly, “If this is true, then... What shall I do? It is impossible for me to marry her, for I like Fang Diandian.”
“Nonsense!” Tang Duo hits him, “Stop crying. Of course you can’t marry her. What did she think of our family? There are many girls who want to marry into a rich family by this means. How many successful ones have you seen?”
Tang Cao thinks, but there is few. He feels more confident, “Then what should I do now, sister...”
“Let’s make sure one thing whether the child is yours or not.” Tang Duo repeats what Lang Ruoxian told her this morning, “If so, make sure of her purpose.”
“Didn’t you say that her purpose was to marry me?”
“Not to marry you but to marry into our family.” Tang Duo looks at him, “Not necessarily. What if she just wants money and wants a lot of money from us by using her child as trading goods?”
Generally, women who want to design this mostly aim at the latter. Because they know in their hearts that rich families are not so easy to marry into. Isn’t it better to exchange a child for money that can be spent for a few lifetimes?
“The question now is, no matter what she wants, if the child is really yours, our family can’t disown. But how can you explain it to Diandian? Do you think that she will still like you if she knows that you have a child with another woman?”
Tang Cao’s face turns pale. Is his love going to be ended before it starts?
“Diandian is not that kind of person.” Tang Duo gives him another blow, “You don’t think that you can take any chances. You think you love her and just let the child stay. Diandian’s parents won’t let their daughter to be a stepmother. Diandian’s parents don’t think our family to be uncommon.”
They have known Fang Diandian for so long. Fang Family’s attitude has been very clear. They have never taken the initiative to build the connections with their family. Tang Duo believes that Fang Diandian’s parents are even unwilling to marry Diandian to Tang Cao. They prefer to choose a suitable match for their daughter so that she will not be bullied later.
“Then we mustn’t let Diandian know that!” Tang Cao looks like being in a state of utter stupefaction, “If this can’t work, I’ll ask someone to lock up Ning Lingshan.”
Tang Duo sees that he becomes silly and shakes her head, “Are you going to lock her up forever? Besides, there is a child involved. If Mom knows, it is impossible for her to disown the child.”
The old people in the family will disown Ning Lingshan, but they cannot disown the child of Tang Family.
“Don’t panic first.” Tang Duo feels if she doesn’t say anything, Tang Cao will be scared to death, “We have said so much, but if we are wrong, and the child is not yours...”
Tang Cao looks at her with red-rimmed eyes. Tang Duo can’t say any more. Obviously, both of them think Ning Lingshan is probably pregnant with Tang Cao’s child.
Fang Diandian parks the car, “Don’t be frightened. I’ll accompany you in later.”
“Diandian...” Ning Lingshan looks worried, “You say, will I be fine?”
“Don’t frighten yourself.” Fang Diandian helps her out of the car, “Didn’t you say that you hadn’t had a good rest recently? Maybe it has something to do with this.”
Ning Lingshan meets her today to ask about the situation of newly recruited nurses in her university’s infirmary. Ning Lingshan sees it online and wants to come to have a try. It is just about dinner time, so Fang Diandian finds a small but clean and beautiful restaurant near the university, preparing to chat while eating.
But Ning Lingshan vomits soon after the first dish is served. Fang Diandian is startled to almost think that there is something wrong with the dish. Later Ning Lingshan can’t stop vomiting. Both of them feel serious, so she drives directly to the hospital.
“Which department should you make a registration?” The two girls stand in the registration office and hesitate.
Ning Lingshan thinks, “The Gastroenterology Department?”
“It should be.” So they go to make a registration in the Gastroenterology Department and make a reservation with the expert clinic.
Fang Diandian has brought Ning Lingshan to a private hospital. Although it is a little expensive, they can see the doctor immediately. If they go to a public hospital, they can’t even make a registration.
The expert presses on Ning Lingshan’s belly for a long time and asks her if here hurts or there hurts. Ning Lingshan says that nowhere hurts and asks the reason for vomiting. The doctor ponders for a few seconds.
“I suggest you go to the gynecology department.” He stares at Ning Lingshan’s belly and says, “Have an ultrasound examination.”
Both girls are stunned.
“Doctor... What do you mean?” Fang Diandian asks.
The doctor smiles, “This lady may be pregnant.”
Tang Duo and Tang Cao, whispering upstairs for a long time, which arouses Bai Susu’s suspicion. She goes upstairs to see what they are doing. As soon as she comes up, she sees Lulu come out of the twins’ room and bark at her.
“Do An’an and Lele wake up?” Bai Susu changes direction and enters the baby’s room.
Tang Duo and Tang Cao just come out and get startled to see the back of their mother. Tang Cao sneaks downstairs stealthily.
“Sister, don’t forget to let Brother Ruoxian investigate quickly!” When he leaves, Tang Cao repeats this again.
Tang Duo makes a gesture of reassurance, “You don’t forget, either. If Ning Lingshan doesn’t take the initiative to say it, you will pretend as if you don’t know anything. Remember?”
“I remember! I remember!”
Hospital.
Fang Diandian looks trance, sitting in a chair. Ning Lingshan is having the ultrasound examination inside. Fang Diandian feels uneasy at the thought of the doctor’s suspicion, but doesn’t know why.
Just now when the doctor said that Ning Lingshan might be pregnant, Ning Lingshan’s expression was very strange. It was not like a happy surprise but like a shock. After Ning Lingshan came out, Fang Diandian quietly asked if Ning Lingshan had a boyfriend. Ning Lingshan’s reaction was stranger.
“No... No!” Ning Lingshan was very nervous. She squeezed out a smile and said, “I have few male friends. So I don’t have a boyfriend. The doctor must have made a mistake. I... I don’t need to have the ultrasound examination. I can’t be pregnant. Let’s leave!”
It was Fang Diandian who insisted and took the initiative to pay the fees. Ning Lingshan went in and checked in fear.
A few minutes later, the nurse sends Ning Lingshan out.
“It is just 30 days old. You should pay attention. If you have severe pregnancy vomiting, come to see the doctor again.”
Fang Diandian looks at Ning Lingshan, but Ning Lingshan evades Fang Diandian’s eyes and lowers her head.
“Are you really pregnant?” Fang Diandian asks.
The young nurse doesn’t know the situation and rushes to say, “Of course. Four-dimensional color ultrasound can’t be wrong. There! She’s got the lab report in her hands.”
“Lingshan...” Fang Diandian wants to say something but thinks that this is not the proper place, “Let’s go.” She stretches out her hands to hold Ning Lingshan, eyes sweeping the lab report in Ning Lingshan’s hands.
