Hearing that, Shi Xiaonian smiled lightly, and said in all seriousness, "Madam, although I am not as knowledgeable as you, but in terms of character, and words, I think I am still worthy."
Gong Ou's character, his way of speaking... It was already good that she didn't mind.
"…"
There was a hint of awkwardness on Luo Qi's face, "As a mother, I don't like people talking about my son like that."
How could she not know that her son was different from others? Sometimes, he was completely unlike a noble and lacked etiquette."I'm sorry, ma'am." Shi Xiaonian sincerely apologized.
"I understand what you mean, you don't want to leave Gong Ou."
Luo Qi's voice was currently cold.
It wasn't that easy to deal with."Yes." Shi Xiaonian looked at Luo Qi, with a very sincere face, "Madam, you don't need to think of other ways to deal with me, as this will instead destroy the relationship between you two mother and son."
Luo Qi looked at her silently, listening to her words.
But he had to admit that what the girl said was true, thinking too much about taking revenge on her. With Gong Ou's personality, he would definitely cause another ruckus with the clan.
"Can you give me a chance to show off? I will try my best to match it to Gong Ou. ""With just you?" Luo Qi asked in doubt.
"I do not have a great background from the Lancaster family, but with me, Gong Ou, I would be more relaxed and happy. Shi Xiaonian said with a sincere voice, "As for my remaining personal cultivation, I will work hard to improve myself."
"A sharp tongue."Luo Qi said with a cold tone and displeasure in her eyes.
This was clearly not a compliment."Madam, my mouth is very stupid." Shi Xiaonian said indifferently, his tone filled with determination, "But I don't like abandoning halfway, I gave up without even trying, I would despise myself."
Gong Ou had already paid a lot for her, so she couldn't just back off like this.Luo Qi sat on the sofa, his jeweled hand pressed against his temple, a pensive look on his face. After a while, she said, "You may leave, I will consider your words."
"Thank you Madam."
Shi Xiaonian lowered her head to her and then turned to leave.
After walking halfway, Luo Qi's voice sounded from behind her, "Miss Shi, we both know in our hearts that the outcome cannot be changed. The one who you want to endure a bit more in pain is only yourself.
"…"
Shi Xiaonian's face turned pale white, and she left without a word.
She took the elevator down and looked at the numbers on the screen. Once again, Luo Qi's voice floated into her ears — —Miss Shi, we both know in our hearts that the outcome cannot be changed and the only person you want to endure a bit more of the pain is yourself.
The outcome could not be changed.
This was the warning from the Gong Jia.
Shi Xiaonian's eyes were filled with confusion. She too did not know what she was facing and what she would encounter in the future.She walked into a maze in confusion, but she couldn't quit. She wanted a home, and Gong Ou had helped her take the first step.
She could not easily admit defeat.
Shi Xiaonian returned to the bedroom and walked in. She saw Gong Ou walking up and down the bed barefooted, stepping on the grey blanket until it was completely wrinkled.
Shi Xiaonian touched her face, trying her best to smile and walked over, "What are you standing on the bed for?"
Gong Ou looked up at her. Seeing that she had returned, he immediately jumped down from the bed and ran to her barefooted. He stared at her with his black eyes, "Mother, did you make things difficult for me?"
Shi Xiaonian looked at his handsome face and smelled a burnt fragrance at the same time. She turned to look and saw a plate of Egg-Fried Rice on the bedside table.
The burning incense floated ten kilometers away.
Shi Xiaonian walked over to the bedside, "How can I put the Egg Fried Rice here? I'll take it to the dining hall to eat."
"Eating here is one thing." Gong Ou sat her down on the bedside, and directly placed the plate into her hands, "Speak, did mother make things difficult for you?"
Shi Xiaonian felt helpless as she looked at the plate of fried rice he had stuffed in front of him, as well as her bare feet.
His mother should have seen what he was doing."Speak!"
Gong Ou stepped onto the bed and squatted beside her as he asked his. A handsome face was right in front of her, and her face was reflected in his black eyes.
Shi Xiaonian carried the fried rice in her hands, looked at him with her clear eyes and said gently, "I guess so. She told me about the Lancaster family."
"Lancaster?" Hearing that, Gong Ou scoffed, "It's just a family that built their family by digging out gold, after generations, they made themselves into some kind of noble family."
"Is that so?"Shi Xiaonian asked indifferently. She wasn't interested in that family at all.
She picked up the lasagna spoon and scooped a mouthful of fried rice into her mouth.
She really admired Gong Ou for not improving at all in cooking so much.
"And it's a notoriously incestuous family." Gong Ou said with disdain, his voice was still filled with magnetism.
Shi Xiaonian almost choked on what she heard, "What?"Chaos?
"In order to ensure that my bloodline is pure, there have been historical instances of my uncle marrying his niece and cousin. Only in these years did it improve a little." Gong Ou said as he squatted beside her and observed her.
The more he looked at her, the more he liked her.
Shi Xiaonian heard it and felt disgusted, "A cousin wants to marry a cousin?"
This is ridiculous."Yes."
"I realized that the minds of the people in the upper class were all very strange. Why would they think of doing this to maintain their pure blood?" Shi Xiaonian shook his head in disbelief.
"In order to make the clan eternal, none of these people can think of anything." Gong Ou stared at her.
"This is really abnormal."
Shi Xiaonian could not understand her belief in the glory of her family.
Gong Ou looked at her intently, his gaze fixed straight, "I'm the most normal person, I want you, I don't want my cousin!"
Hearing that, Shi Xiaonian said, "I don't even know who my biological parents are, maybe I'm related to you in some way?""Then I'll mess with you!"
Gong Ou answered without hesitation. His voice had a hint of paranoia.
"…"
Shi Xiaonian was startled, then looked at Gong Ou's handsome face with a pair of eyes, bit his lips and said softly, "Gong Ou, only now do I know what you have given up for me."He gave up his marriage with the entire Lancaster family, it was a family with a huge amount of hidden assets.
If it was really a strong alliance, then no matter if it was in public or private, there wouldn't be anyone stronger and richer than him in this world.
And because of her, he actually gave up on all of this.Even his mother couldn't believe it.
"You just found out?"
Gong Ou pursed his lips slightly, as if this was something to be proud of, and he didn't think that he had lost anything.
"…"
Shi Xiaonian watched his face quietly.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Gong Ou stared at her with his deep, black eyes.
"Gong Ou, is it worth it for me to do this?"Shi Xiaonian sat on the side of the bed, staring at his face and asked.
He gave up too much.
She was not qualified.
"I still say that." Gong Ou said with a domineering and arrogant voice, "I want you, so I will do whatever I need to do for you!"
"…"Hearing his words, Shi Xiaonian's heart fiercely shook.
Her eyes immediately felt a little sore. Shi Xiaonian picked up the plate and continued to stuff the Egg Fried Rice into his mouth, chewing on the food that was filled with the burning fragrance.
"How is it? Has my cooking improved by a lot?" Gong Ou asked.Shi Xiaonian nodded, her lips curving into a smile, "You've improved too much."
Gong Ou was satisfied with his words, his eyebrows raised with a face full of pride. He extended his hand and grabbed the plate from her hands, and with a magnetic voice, he said, "Come, I'll feed you."
He scooped up a spoonful of rice and put it to her lips.Shi Xiaonian opened her mouth and ate it, tasting the burnt fragrance.
"Is it good?" Gong Ou asked.
"Delicious.""Who cooked the most delicious Egg Fried Rice?"
"You did it."
"Who are you?"
"Gong Ou."
"Who do you love?"
"Gong Ou."
Shi Xiaonian said obediently, making him happy. As expected, Gong Ou's face was full of satisfaction as he raised his eyebrows proudly and continued to feed her.Shi Xiaonian looked at his face, chewing on the rice in his mouth, and unexpectedly got a taste of sweetness from her mouth.
Their eyes met.
The two finished the plate of fried rice as soon as they fed each other.
Gong Ou pinched her face, "If you like it, I'll make it for you everyday!"
"…"Shi Xiaonian remained silent, covered her mouth with the burning incense before nodding her head.
Deep into the night, a dim light was left in the large bedroom, and the curtains were pulled up, covering a large area of French windows.
On the big bed, Shi Xiaonian was tightly hugged by Gong Ou under the quilt.
After that, he slept with her in his arms, his fingers on hers, her back against his chest, the tip of her nose full of his scent.
Her eyes were open and unfocused as she looked forward.She could not sleep.
It was unknown whether Mu Qianchu was dead or alive, or if he had fallen. It was also unknown whether she and Gong Ou were alive or dead.
Shi Xiaonian opened her eyes, which were filled with confusion. She thought about the conversation she had with Gong Ou's mother during the day and felt his heart sink.
Gong Ou was a Sky Stairway that was not in her reach.No matter what, she would not give up so easily. She would climb up step by step.
Shi Xiaonian lifted one of her hands and clasped Gong Ou's ten fingers tightly. On her hand was a heart-shaped diamond ring.
Shi Xiaonian held his hand and kissed him lightly."Pervert, sneak attack me in the middle of the night!"
A magnetic voice suddenly sounded in her ears."…"
Shi Xiaonian was shocked, she turned her head, and saw Gong Ou lying beside her, staring straight at her with his black eyes, without a trace of sleepiness in his eyes, "Are you awake?"She was shocked. She thought he was asleep.
"When we did that just now, you had a face full of worry, do you think that I, Gong Ou, was blind?" Gong Ou glared at her, extending his hand to forcefully turn her around so that she could face him.
They lay under the covers, facing each other on their sides.
Gong Ou stared at her, and asked solemnly, "What exactly did mother tell you?"
"It's nothing. It's just to let me know the difference between us." Shi Xiaonian said honestly, "And then I realized that the gap is really quite wide.""So you're leaving me?"
