Chapter 46: Hu Residency (Part-1)
Chapter 46: Hu Residency (Part-1)
After the whole day of work, we headed towards my parent's place.
We were invited to dinner.
"Xiao Wei, what did you do, the entire day?" Bai Chang asked him.
"Mamma, it is a surprise, after we reach grandpa's place I will show it to you."
"Okay, my Munchkin is the best."
While I drive on, both mother and son snuggle into each other at the back seat of the car and fell asleep.
After an hour, we reached Hu Residency at the outskirts of the city.
I see my mother is patiently waiting for us on the front porch.
I drive in the indoor garage, while my mother is peeking into the car.
She looked inside only to meet sleeping, Xiao Wei and Bai Chang.
She turned towards me and raised her eyebrows; I shake my head helplessly.
Every time we travel, they fall asleep.
'What do I do in such a case?'
My mother called for 'ayi' from inside to carry Xiao Wei inside the house.
Ayi took Xiao Wei gently from Bai Chang's arms, but in turn she tightens her hold on Xiao Wei.
My mother tears up while watching this from the side.
"Mom, the situation is different this time." I consoled her.
"Still, she is as protective about Xiao Wei as ever, even if she lost her memories."
"Mom, we don't know, how much she remembers? If she remembers anything at all!"
"It was entirely our fault then, we couldn't protect her that time." My mother spoke up with a slight tremble in her voice.
"Trust me; she has come back to us becoming stronger than before." I tried to placate my mother.
"Ayi, take Xiao Wei inside."
As Ayi moves to take Xiao Wei from her, I hold on to Bai Chang, feeling my presence she loosened her grip on our son.
I simultaneously picked her up in a princess carry and walk inside the Hu Residency.
I see my father sitting on the armchair in the drawing-room awaiting us.
Looking at us, carrying Bai Chang and Xiao Wei in our arms, this old man assumed the worst.
"What happened? Who attacked them? Are they in serious condition? What is wrong with you Qiang? How could this happen again?"
"Father, father. Cool down, they just fell asleep in the car on our way home." I explained.
"OH."
My father heaved a huge sigh of relief.
All these years after the incident, the accident is still a fresh scab in my parent's memory.
You can't blame them either, it has not been too long, and that Bai Chang woke up from her coma.
We also faced a fresh attack from the hidden enemy, not too long back.
"Okay, settle them first," My father spoke up.
We settled them and then I join my parents in the living room.
"We heard the fashion show became an international hit this time." My mother said, as soon as, I took a seat with them.
"Yes, we did."
"I also heard, there is a new designer, working exclusively for your label."
"Yes, there is," I replied cautiously.
"Who is she/he?" She asked with a threatening undertone.
I am now aware, that I am in danger; my parents were staring at me sharply.
I gulped aloud as I said, "It is Bai Chang, she is the designer as well as the director of the fashion house, from now all matters related to fashion house is handled by her."
With each passing words, that I spoke, my parent's eyebrows just frowned together. And finally, my father burst out first-
"You un-filial son, she just woke up, and still a long way from complete recovery and you are already making her slave away in your cheap company.
Are there dearths of people on earth, hire helps there, why must my daughter slave for you?
What have you done for her to deserve her hard work and kindness?
Don't forget that she slaved for nine months, to bring Xiao Wei to this world for your one unintentional mistake, that night.
Wife, where is my cane? He deserves beating on his back, to make him walk the straight path."
My father is highly agitated while my mother silently supported all this.
I feel like crying.
I am your own son, do you have to make me a cripple before you all are satisfied with me.
'I wish someone will get me out of this sticky situation.'
"Mom, I am hungry," a melodic chime-like voice rang throughout the room.
We all looked towards the source, we see Bai Chang, walk down the stairs while rubbing her eyes.
And I thought to myself, 'She is my angel.'
