Bai Xue's heart skipped a beat. Sikong Heng was going on a blind date?
"Ah Xue, Doctor Sikong is already in his thirties. The whole of Castle Guding, Old Madam, and Madam Sikong have formed a powerful group to urge Doctor Sikong to get married and have children. You've been together with Doctor Sikong for a year, but it's always been a secret relationship. You don't have any plans to announce it or get married. No wonder the Sikong family is so anxious."
Bai Xue's luscious lashes fluttered. She liked Sikong Heng. Over the past year that they had been together, she had grown to like him more and more. However, she still couldn't overcome the barrier in her heart and didn't dare to step into marriage.
At this moment, a beautiful girl walked over. "Hi, Snow White, what a coincidence. Long time no see."
It was Snow White's classmate, Zhao Wen.
The Bai family and the Zhao family were both medical families. Zhao Wen was also a doctor and had been Bai Xue's neighbor since she was young.
Bai Xue looked at Zhao Wen and smiled. "Zhao Wen, what a coincidence. Are you here to shop?"
Zhao Wen was wearing a small dress. Her skin was snow-white and her face was beautiful. "Snow White, I'm here to buy an evening dress. I'm going to attend a mysterious party in two days. Can you guess what kind of party it is?"
Bai Xue noticed the words' in two days' and 'mysterious party'. This was Mexico, the territory of Castle Guding, and the hottest and most sensational party these two days was Madam Sikong's 50th birthday.
Bai Xue had a guess, but she did not say it out loud. "Zhao Wen, I really don't know."
Zhao Wen's pretty little face was full of anticipation and pride. "Snow White, I want to attend Mrs. Sikong's birthday party. All the socialites in Mexico will attend this birthday party. At the party, I'll have the opportunity to meet the golden bachelor of the upper class and Dr. Sikong, the leading figure in the medical world. If Dr. Sikong takes a liking to me, I might be able to marry into the Sikong family and become the young madam!"
As expected, Zhao Wen was going to attend Madam Sikong's birthday party.
Just then, a melodious ringtone sounded — Snow White had an incoming call.
Bai Xue picked up her phone. It was Sikong Heng.
She answered the call. "Hello."
"Where are you now?" Sikong Heng's low and mesmerizing voice slowly poured into her eardrums.
"I'm in the mall now …"
"Turn back," the voice on the other end said simply.
Turn back.
He told her to turn back.
Bai Xue turned around, a handsome figure appearing in her mesmerizing eyes. Sikong Heng had arrived.
Today, Sikong Heng was dressed casually in a navy blue sweater and black trousers. He wore a pair of gold-rimmed spectacles on his handsome face and did not have any extravagant accessories on him. His clean and aloof aura was one in a million. Now that he was holding his phone in one hand and looking at her, he attracted the attention of everyone in the mall.
Bai Xue's luscious lashes quivered. How did he … fall from the sky?
Putting his phone back in his pocket, Sikong Heng walked over.
"Doctor Sikong, what a coincidence." Jun Xiqing greeted him with a sweet smile.
Sikong Heng nodded slightly and replied politely, "Your Highness."
Hiss.
At this moment, Zhao Wen gasped. She stared in shock at the legendary Sikong Heng. He had actually appeared in front of her.
"Si … Divine Physician Sikong …"
Bai Xue raised her brows and looked at Sikong Heng. "Doctor Sikong, this is Zhao Wen, my classmate. She admires you a lot."
Bai Xue emphasized the word 'admire'.
Sikong Heng's clear black eyes landed on Zhao Wen's pretty face. She was looking at him with adoration and love.
Sikong Heng didn't say anything, he just lifted his strong arm and put it around Bai Xue's shoulder. It was a natural gesture, just like a couple in love. "Have you bought the present?"
He put his arm around her shoulders.
Bai Xue's heart was filled with sweetness. Sikong Heng was a very intelligent man and he could already tell that Zhao Wen was in love with him. So he held her shoulder and decisively cut off Zhao Wen's thoughts.
"I've bought it. The shop assistant is packing it up. Qingqing and I will go in to get it. Wait for a while."
"Go ahead."
Bai Xue and Jun Xiqing entered the store.
…
Sikong Heng was waiting outside. Zhao Wen looked at him in a daze. "Doctor Sikong, h-hello."
"Hello," Sikong Heng replied politely and coolly, glancing at her before quickly averting his gaze.
Zhao Wen had already guessed the relationship between Sikong Heng and Bai Xue. She quickly smiled and said, "Doctor Sikong, Bai Xue and I are neighbors and classmates, so I know her very well. Bai Xue used to like a boy."
Bai Xue used to like a boy.
Hearing this, Sikong Heng's clear black eyes landed on Zhao Wen's pretty face.
Zhao Wen knew that she had successfully attracted Sikong Heng's attention. Or rather, Sikong Heng was very concerned about this topic.
"Doctor Sikong, that boy's name is Xiao Ling. Bai Xue really liked him, but unfortunately, Xiao Ling died in order to save Bai Xue. After Xiao Ling's death, Bai Xue's personality underwent a huge change. She became cold and aloof. For such a long time, Bai Xue hasn't had a boyfriend because she can't forget Xiao Ling, and …"
Zhao Wen looked at Sikong Heng and said softly, "Also, Bai Xue has a tattoo of a black rose. Do you know why Bai Xue has a black rose tattoo? It's because Xiao Ling used to give her black roses. As for where Bai Xue tattooed it on her body, I'm not sure."
Black rose …
Zhao Wen didn't know where the black rose was tattooed, but Sikong Heng did. Bai Xue had tattooed it on her most private part.
To Sikong Heng, Bai Xue was a mystery.
She had white parts and black parts. He had always been curious about what kind of story had led to such a change in her. She was afraid of giving her feelings and was unwilling to get married.
Sikong Heng had long guessed that a boy had entered her life before him.
Now he knew. That boy's name was Xiao Ling.
Xiao Ling had died to save Bai Xue.
The dead would be remembered forever.
No matter how outstanding Sikong Heng was, he couldn't compare to a boy who had been buried deep in her heart.
"Doctor Sikong, Bai Xue …" Zhao Wen wanted to say more.
"Miss Zhao." At this moment, Sikong Heng straightened his body, his handsome figure incomparably straight. His clear black eyes were also overflowing with coldness. "Bai Xue treats you as a friend, yet for the sake of your own selfish desires, you would speak of her in such a manner in front of me. Is this how you were raised?"
"I …"
Zhao Wen's pretty face instantly paled. She could already see the disgust in Sikong Heng's eyes.
For a man like Sikong Heng, who was born into an extraordinary family and was a gentleman, he had his fair share of women. However, he had high standards. A woman's face, figure, knowledge, upbringing, and character could not be lacking in any of them.
Zhao Wen had already exposed herself.
Just as the atmosphere turned cold, Bai Xue and Jun Xiqing came out. "Doctor Sikong, we're done."
Bai Xue held an exquisite gift box in her hands.
"Boohoo …"
At this moment, Zhao Wen covered her mouth and ran away with tears in her eyes.
Bai Xue looked at Sikong Heng suspiciously and joked, "Doctor Sikong, what did you say to Zhao Wen? Why did you make a girl cry?"
Sikong Heng reached out and took the gift box from Bai Xue. "Nothing much."
"Are you serious? Doctor Sikong, you've learned to lie too?"
Sikong Heng's clear eyes were fixed on Bai Xue's seductive eyes. The corners of his lips kicked up. "Do you really want to know?"
Bai Xue's heart thumped. She was very perceptive and had already guessed something. Did Zhao Wen … talk to him about … Xiao Ling?
"Doctor Sikong …" Bai Xue wanted to say something.
Actually, Xiao Ling wasn't a secret and she didn't intend to hide it from him. If he wanted to know, she could tell him.
But Sikong Heng's cell phone rang.
Sikong Heng picked up the call. "Hello, Mom."
It was a call from Madam Sikong.
Sikong Heng hung up the phone and looked at Bai Xue. "My mom and Old Madam are also in this shopping mall. They asked me to be their chauffeur to drive them home. Do you want to come with me?"
These words carried weight. He was going to see the parents.
Bai Xue's clear eyes narrowed. After some hesitation, she shook her head. "I'm not going."
Sikong Heng glanced at Bai Xue and didn't force her. "Alright, I'll be leaving then."
"Mm, 88."
Sikong Heng left.
…
After Sikong Heng left, Jun Xiqing held Bai Xue's slender arm. "Ah Xue, I think Doctor Sikong has always wanted to get married to you."
Bai Xue knew that Sikong Heng had treated her extremely well this year. He was a perfect lover.
Now she felt like a jerk. Sikong Heng was a golden bachelor in his thirties. She didn't want to get married to him but chose to be with him. She was being a hooligan.
Now that he knew about Xiao Ling, what would he think?
Bai Xue's heart was a mess. She walked out of the shopping mall with Jun Xiqing.
At this moment, outside the shopping mall, Bai Xue saw Sikong Heng's private luxury car. It was a silver Maybach. Sikong Heng was standing there with Old Madam and Madam Sikong by his side. The butler was carrying bags of spoils of war. Other than that, there was also a beautiful girl.
The girl was wearing a light yellow dress and had a lively personality. Old Madam and Madam Sikong were all smiles as they said something to her. She looked at Sikong Heng with sparkling eyes.
"Ah Xue, that girl is called Sara. She comes from an extremely noble background and is the little princess of Country T. Gudeng Castle has been on good terms with the royal family of Country T for centuries. Now that Princess Sara is of marriageable age, it looks like Old Madam and Madam Sikong are very fond of her. All the socialites at this birthday party are just there to serve as foils. This is a matchmaking party for Doctor Sikong and Princess Sara."
Bai Xue looked at Princess Sara. She was different from those pretentious socialites. Princess Sara was pure and beautiful. She was so pleasing to the eye when she stood next to Sikong Heng.
Babes, there's more.
