"…"
Shi Xiaonian looked at him speechlessly. He couldn't take it anymore, could he hold a press conference properly?
She kept her phone and stared at Gong Ou for a long time, talking to him in a low voice in the middle. Time passed minute by minute, yet her phone did not vibrate at all.Had Beetee not received her text message? Why isn't he here yet?
Shi Xiaonian lowered her eyes and looked at the empty seat beside her in deep thought. She ground her lips and suddenly heard Feng De's mutter, "You're going to sign the hundred year cooperation plan. Young Master doesn't want you to get distracted."
"Huh?"
Shi Xiaonian raised her head in shock, only to see Gong Ou sitting at the front while glaring at her again, expressing his dissatisfaction.
The professional host at the side began announcing the start of the signing ceremony.
Shi Xiaonian smiled at Gong Ou, then extended her hand to applaud. Under her lead, the entire audience burst into thunderous applause.After both sides handed in their documents, Gong Ou and George were reading the contents of the plan. Gong Ou was absent-minded as he turned the pen in one hand and looked at Shi Xiaonian from time to time.
George did not pay much attention. After watching for nearly a minute, he raised his eyes and looked around.
Gong Ou tapped his pen on the table lightly, and swiped it towards a direction. George looked in that direction, and his hand pressed on the document in front of him.
Shi Xiaonian also turned her head around. This government building was a ring-shaped design, allowing people to clearly see the high levels of the building. On the second floor, in front of a certain door, a bodyguard was pushing a woman in a simple robe to the railing.
Yi Nide was extremely haggard, she lowered her head and looked at the arena, her entire body trembling.
Although they were at a distance, Shi Xiaonian could feel that her eyes must have turned red. She wanted to help this man today, to make him stay high and mighty so she could proudly say that she had never dragged him down before.
It must have been terrible.
Very quickly, another group of people walked past the corridor of the second floor and towards Yi Nide. Those were the people from the Lancaster family.The higher ups were waiting to hand over the contract, while the lower echelons were waiting for the contract to be signed.
Shi Xiaonian retracted her gaze, and slowly lowered her hand that was clapping, as she quietly looked at Gong Ou and George who were seated in front of him.
George's smile was a little stiff. Gong Ou held the pen and made a gesture of invitation, and the two of them signed their names on the hundred year cooperation plan.Then there was the exchange of documents.
Then the signature.
The people from the lawyer team announced the establishment of the century-old cooperation plan, and once again, thunderous applause sounded out from the whole field. Shi Xiaonian heaved a sigh of relief, and smiled at Feng De.
"It's finally over, minuscule thought." Feng De's slightly aged voice sounded extremely emotional, "With this hundred year cooperation plan in hand, the price that George has to pay is just too big."
Shi Xiaonian nodded strongly, "This time, everyone can sleep in peace."
"Yeah."Feng De drew in his breath, and clapped strongly.
"Arrange a large scale sacrifice for us when we return. We will officially commemorate those victims, and we won't be able to reach this day without them." Shi Xiaonian clapped her hands and said."I understand. Don't worry, I will arrange it." Feng De nodded his head, then sighed, "Even if it is the MR Palace, Lancaster insists on not taking it away, and does not know its whereabouts."
He thought he would be able to take advantage of the opportunity to get back his palace, but there was no hope. By right, Lancaster no longer had any reason to seize another robot.
"Let's keep looking."
The only thing Shi Xiaonian could say was this. Today was a good day, and she could not let go of the matters regarding the MR Palace. This would only make things difficult for Gong Ou.
He could only wait until later.
She looked up and saw that the ceremony of "handover" had finished on the second floor. Yi Nide had been successfully taken away by Lancaster's men.
George and Gong Ou stood up and shook hands in a friendly manner.
The applause from the entire venue reached its peak once again. Quite a few reporters stood up one after another to take their pictures, afraid that they would miss a scene.
"Young master, we've made arrangements. We'll be going back soon." Feng De said while standing beside Shi Xiaonian.
Shi Xiaonian laughed, Gong Ou really wanted to return home as soon as possible, fine, she too."It's over, I'll go take care of pumpkin." Shi Xiaonian said as she stood up from her seat and prepared to leave.
He hadn't even taken a single step when he suddenly heard heavy footsteps in the air above the venue, resounding above the sound of the shutter and the applause.
Everyone was stunned as they looked around. The sound of footsteps could be heard clearly from the auditorium. Step by step, it was extremely heavy.
"Over there!"
Someone suddenly shouted, and Shi Xiaonian followed to look up.On the left staircase on the table, a young man in a grey suit was walking down step by step. He was holding a microphone on his body and had one hand on the railing.
It was Beetee.
The stairs were steep and high.
Shi Xiaonian looked at him in a daze. When had Bitter ran over? George and Gong Ou did not leave the table nor did they sit down.
The media began taking wild photos as they became sensitive to the smell.
"What happened to him?" Feng De panicked a little and immediately spoke to the bodyguard beside him, "Hurry up and bring him down."
The bodyguards immediately rushed forward.
Beetee stopped at the top of the stairs, facing them all, her hands on the railing. "Don't come near me.
Hearing that, Gong Ou waved to the bodyguards, signalling them not to act rashly.
"Get down here!" George's dissatisfied voice rang out in the hall. He looked at his son, frowning deeply.
"Once upon a time, there was a child who was born in a big family. His father was a man of great prestige, and his mother was only a maid. He bled the most noble and lowly blood at the same time."
The story was his own.
Shi Xiaonian frowned, she looked at Bitter Beast worriedly, what was he trying to do?"When he was a kid, the kid didn't understand this. He had a crush on the warmth of his mother's embrace in bed, the food she cooked, and then his mother was gone, and he started to look hopefully at his father, who would always look at him with contempt, ridicule, and loathing."
His voice came out of the stereo, loud and clear.
Shi Xiaonian pursed her lips, why did he say all these? Why did she expose her own scars in front of everyone?
George obviously didn't like Beatte doing all this, so he instructed the bodyguard beside him to stop him.Gong Ou's black eyes swept across them lightly before ordering his men to stop Lancaster. He looked at George with a provocative gaze, "Your son doesn't even have the right to freedom of expression? If you don't want to give it to me, I'll give it to you. "
"Mr. Gong, this is my family matter, it has nothing to do with you." George pressed his clenched fist against the table.Gong Ou laughed mockingly, and did not say anything more, just standing there and looking at Bitter.
Beetee had reached the second floor and was walking slowly around the corridor, still telling his story. "Every time this kid is bullied by the family, he thinks he's done something wrong? Being born is not his problem, his bloodline is not something he can decide, his hard work is not seen by anyone, his resignation is not seen by anyone, he lives in an unstable environment, and he receives one eye rolled over after another, yep, this all started when he was 3 years old. "
Listening to Beit talking in a funny tone, Shi Xiaonian felt extremely uncomfortable. Her nose was sore, and she wanted to immediately pull Beat down from the stairs.
Don't tear yourself apart, don't go on.
He stopped in front of Yi Nide, who was surrounded by a large number of people, and continued to walk towards the third floor, laughing as he walked. "The child is slowly growing up under the blind of his eyes, father's scolding has given him an even more masochistic mentality, he must not be outstanding enough, if he is outstanding, father will definitely be able to face his existence, thus he has to put in more effort to express himself, even though every time he suffers from a kind of disgust and ridicule."
Shi Xiaonian frowned, she looked at Yi Nide.Behind Yi Nide was Lancaster's bodyguard. At the same time, she was also blocked by Gong Jia's bodyguard, preventing her from following her son.
She stood there, her hands gripping the railing in front of her, unable to see the emotion on her face.
"…" Shi Xiaonian bit her lips and said to Feng De who was beside her, "I'm a little worried about Bitter, let's send someone to secretly follow him."
She had no idea what it was about.
"I know." Feng De nodded.
Beetee walked up to the third floor and went on. "He tried so hard, tried so hard to be seen, tried so hard to be valued, said it was too much, just a kind look, but he's sixteen, and he still hasn't gotten it."Beetee had used a joking tone the entire time, but every word was filled with unspeakable sorrow. The reporters slowly put down the cameras in their hands as they looked at the youth with complicated expressions.
"He was wondering if he should wait until he was seventeen or eighteen." "Oh, no," Beatte said, stopping directly above the table and pressing his hands on the railing. "Oh, no, he knows all about it at the age of sixteen.""…"
"The answer to everything that's incomprehensible is especially simple." "Father hates him, he hates him, and he doesn't even think of him as a human being, let alone a son.""…"
"Why did his mother disappear when he was so young? Because she didn't love him, it was that simple." Beetee threw up her hands. "What other reasons do you have for your parents?"
Shi Xiaonian was immediately stunned.
