She could imagine what the news would be like after tomorrow.
"…"
Gong Ou sat beside her without making a sound."Gong Ou, let's leave this place now. I don't want to bother with their internal conflict." Shi Xiaonian said softly.
In any case, they had already found Gong Yu, so how the Lancaster family fought had nothing to do with them.
"I'm not leaving!"
Gong Ou said coldly.Not leaving?
Why?
Shi Xiaonian looked at him in shock. She couldn't see any answer on his face, only a pair of sinister eyes.
"Someone, come!" Gong Ou shouted.Gong Ou's voice seemed especially hollow in the empty theater.
The bodyguard immediately walked over and lowered his head to wait for orders. Gong Ou raised his eyes and looked at the stage under the light, his hand slowly raised up, as though it was pressed down by a thousand kilograms, his arm was tensed up, his index finger pointed straight at the huge picture, and squeezed out word by word, "First, put the picture back."
"Yes."
The bodyguard replied, he did not leave, because if Gong Ou said that he would be number one, then there was still number two.
Gong Ou held his hand up there, and couldn't put it down for a long time, and continued, "Second, find three snipers with guns that do not miss their target and sneak into the bodyguards at the Yearly Sacrifice to be placed on standby."
Sniper?
Shi Xiaonian was startled, she heard the bodyguard ask, "Who is the target of the sniping?"
"We'll know when the time comes." Gong Ou said coldly, he stood up from the chair, extended a hand out to Shi Xiaonian and looked down at her, "Shi Xiaonian, we are not leaving, can we?"
His voice was extremely deep, and every word was filled with all his strength, yet he was suppressing it with all his might.
Shi Xiaonian stared at him blankly for a while. Then, she stood up and placed her hand on his palm, "Of course, you can do whatever you want."
She was relieved and worried, but she believed that he must have his own ideas."Let's go back first."
Gong Ou held her hand and left. The two of them walked past the edge of the stage, Gong Ou's long legs were stiff as they stood there. He slowly turned around and stared at the stage above with his black eyes.
Shi Xiaonian looked over, the two bodyguards were reconstructing the huge picture of Mo Nuo, slowly closing her black and white photo, slowly covering her face.
She looked at Gong Ou. He had an expressionless face, but his black eyes were filled with surging emotions. Shi Xiaonian reached out his finger and dug at his palm a few times, "Don't be like this, it's just a picture.The instant she said that, Gong Ou had already tightly grasped her hand. Her strength was so strong that even her fingers were about to break.
Shi Xiaonian could not help but frown. After a few times, after sensing her resistance, as if she had just woken up, Gong Ou let go of her hand and put his arm around her shoulders before bringing her away.
After returning to the east wing from the theater, Gong Ou locked himself in his study. He did not even take a single step forward, nor did he see anyone.
The packed luggage was carried back to their rooms.
Gong Yu paced back and forth in front of the door of the study, he was still in disguise and furrowed his brows, staring at the closed door of the study, he turned and walked into the hall.
In the hall, Luo Qi sat on the sofa and guarded the baby carriage, his eyes couldn't leave his grandson for a moment as a faint smile hung on his beautiful face.Shi Xiaonian sat at the side, holding onto her fruit knife and absentmindedly peeling an apple, her eyes looking away.
"minuscule thought, is he alright?"Gong Yu pressed both hands on a leather sofa and asked.
Shi Xiaonian paused as shshecut the apple in her hand, raised her head and met Gong Yu's gaze, before saying indifferently, "When he saw the black-and-white photo, he was in a bad mood. When she came back, he said that she wanted to calm down.""He has always been sensitive to your matters. Of course, he would be in a bad mood if he saw this sort of unlucky black and white at the Conference Hall. Give him some time to adjust his mood." Luo Qi retracted her gaze from the little grandson, and comforted Shi Xiaonian.
"Yes."Shi Xiaonian nodded her head and continued to peel the apples, but she could not help but be worried in her heart.
She knew that Gong Ou would definitely want to do something now, even if it was a sniper.
"Since we have already determined that the entire incident started from the internal conflict within the Lancaster family, we can just let them bite each other." Gong Yu said.
Knowing that George was not targeting the Gong Jia, Gong Yu was no longer interested in this fight.
Shi Xiaonian peeled the apple silently.Feng De stood at the side, looked down at Shi Xiaonian, and said, "Young Master won't be able to stand the sight of minuscule thought feeling a little wronged, and will probably have to vent his anger before leaving."
Hearing that, Shi Xiaonian's skin under the fruit knife broke and fell to the ground.
How could she not know that it was because of her?"How can I release my anger? Could it be that he wants to kill both sides that were fighting at the Yearly Sacrifice? " Gong Yu walked to the sofa and sat down, frowning, "That's not right, he only found three snipers, so there shouldn't be many targets. What is he thinking? Or … He didn't even think about it, so he shut himself up in his study? "
No one knew what Gong Ou was going to do now.
Luo Qi glanced at the direction of the study, and said worriedly: "Gong Ou is nervous, he won't act rashly, will he?""…"
Shi Xiaonian clenched the apple in her hand tightly, "That shouldn't be the case. He told us all to stay, this shows that he won't do anything dangerous."
said these words without any confidence as he had already acted recklessly once.
Everyone in the hall knew that when Gong Ou encountered her, he would not stay calm for long.
"No." Gong Yu didn't sit for long before he stood up from the sofa and looked towards Feng De, "Feng De, gather all the bodyguards. I don't care what Gong Ou is going to do during the annual tribute, but I want to make sure that he can safely retreat.
"Yes, Eldest Young Master."
Feng De nodded and followed Gong Yu out.Shi Xiaonian still sat there, looking at the small apple that had been peeled. She looked for a long time before she stood up and walked towards the direction of the study.
"Knock."
Shi Xiaonian lightly knocked on the door."It's me, Gong Ou, can I come in?" Shi Xiaonian said softly. She was afraid of disturbing his quietness, and was even more worried about his current mood.
"Come in." Gong Ou's voice did not have much hesitation, as he said in a low voice.
Shi Xiaonian let out a long breath, pushed open the door and entered the study. She saw Gong Ou sitting in front of the desk, his ten fingers pressed against his chin, his black eyes staring straight ahead, as though he had maintained this posture for a very long time.
Shi Xiaonian walked over, laid a tissue on the table, and placed the little apple on top of it. "I've cut the apple too small, do you want to eat it?"Gong Ou glanced at her, picked up an apple and bit down on it, causing a large half of the apple to disappear.
He was in better shape than she had expected.
"You … Are you alright? "
Shi Xiaonian asked carefully."What, should I be alright?" Gong Ou asked as he raised his eyebrows. He looked at her with his black eyes and took another bite of the apple.
"I see that you will stay here after you return from the theater." Shi Xiaonian stood in front of the desk and said, "You really don't have to mind the black and white photo, weren't they all black and white decades ago? "There's nothing to be afraid of.""So?"
After Gong Ou finished the apple in three bites, the smell of the apple made him feel quite comfortable.
"So …" Shi Xiaonian bit her lips, paused for a while, and thought about the words, "We will all stay behind with you, but don't be rash, okay?"Hearing that, Gong Ou laughed, he leaned his body backwards and hooked his index finger at her.
Shi Xiaonian walked around the desk and into Gong Ou's embrace. Gong Ou looked at her in amusement, "Do you think that I would stay in the study and think about how to act impulsively?"
This was what everyone analyzed.
Shi Xiaonian looked at him.
When Gong Ou saw her nervous look, the curve of his lips became even more pronounced, "What are you thinking about? I'm just here to sort out some things. What are you so nervous for? "
"Make sense of the situation?"
Shi Xiaonian was startled.
"Knock, knock, knock."The door to the study was knocked again, this time from the bodyguard's voice, "Second Young Master."
"Come in."Gong Ou held Shi Xiaonian tightly as he sat down at the desk. His voice turned cold in an instant.
The bodyguard walked in from outside and lowered his head to them. "Second Young Master, you were looking for me?"
Gong Ou carried Shi Xiaonian in one hand, and raised the folded white card on the table in the other, "This is the target of the sniping at the Yearly Sacrifice, after looking at it, it will be destroyed.
"Yes, Second Young Master."
The bodyguard reached out his hand, and Shi Xiaonian reached out her hand to take it. Her slender fingers did not hesitate to open the card.In the center of the card, a name could be seen: Lancaster George.
Shi Xiaonian was so shocked that her eyes opened wide, she couldn't say a word for a long while, so Gong Ou took the card from her hand and passed it to the bodyguard.
The bodyguard glanced at it, then took out a lighter and burned the card into the dustbin, lowering his head and retreating.Only when the bodyguard left the study room did Shi Xiaonian regain her senses. He turned his eyes to look at Gong Ou's handsome face and asked in disbelief, "You want to kill George? "Why?"
"Because he wants to kill you." Gong Ou's voice sounded by her ear, every word was filled with hatred, like a rock falling from a cliff into the sea, stirring up a thousand ripples, "The one who makes the first move is strong."
He had to."What?" Shi Xiaonian was stunned, "Why would he want to kill me?"
"Have you forgotten why I stayed?"
Gong Ou stared at her and said.
Shi Xiaonian thought back to what Gong Yu had said before, "It's because she saw that George said he wanted to destroy everything during the annual tribute. But now it seems that he wanted to destroy the people he was fighting against, and I have even been used, don't you think?"
George did not say that he was going to target the Gong Jia.
Gong Ou stared at her and did not speak for a long time.
"Gong Ou, I only stepped in because they used me to help someone. Why would George kill me at this juncture?" Shi Xiaonian tugged his sleeves, "Are you thinking too much?"
