"I thought you didn't hear me." He's so busy.
"I'm not deaf."
Gong Ou kept the documents in his briefcase, opened the car door, and walked to Shi Xiaonian's car. He opened the door for her, and placed his hand on the roof, "Get out."Shi Xiaonian nodded and got off the carriage.
It was a quiet road.Gong Ou accompanied her silently as she walked forward, the sound of her footsteps making contact with the ground.
Shi Xiaonian raised her head.
In the night sky, the most gorgeous firework blossomed, brimming with the feeling of celebration for the new year.This was the first time Shi Xiaonian looked forward to this new year.
"Let's find some time to go back to the Imperial Castle and arrange things, shall we? It's a bit of a New Year atmosphere. "
Shi Xiaonian said.
There was silence in response.
Shi Xiaonian turned her head around and stopped in her tracks. Her black eyes stared at her with a deep gaze and a clearly defined expression.Seeing that, Shi Xiaonian understood. "You don't have time, right?"
"N.E. is not on track yet, and there are a lot of things I have to deal with. If you want to set it up, just let the servants do it. " Gong Ou said in a low voice.
Shi Xiaonian raised her eyes and looked at him steadily.
"I can't accompany you. Are you unhappy?"
Gong Ou stared at her and asked.
Shi Xiaonian blinked her eyes, and then laughed somewhat forcefully: "Gong Ou, you have really grown quite a lot these past four years."
"Where did it change?" Gong Ou looked down at her.
"Mature, rational."In the old days, when he wouldn't have been so sensible, he would have gone home when he got the prize because he thought of her; he would have pulled her in at meetings because he wanted her.
He used to be a man who didn't care about business or personal matters.
"Sounds like a good word."
Gong Ou smiled in satisfaction."And how much I was afraid you'd beat up that graduate student indiscriminately when you came into the gallery tonight." Shi Xiaonian tried to make his tone as light as possible.
Hearing this, Gong Ou stared at her with his black eyes, "How old is he, and how old am I? Fighting with a student for jealousy is too brainless."Shi Xiaonian laughed.
Therefore, he was becoming more and more rational. He had truly become a normal person, a mature adult.
She raised her gaze to the sky, and the fireworks became increasingly sparse.
"What about the good changes? What about the bad ones?"
Gong Ou's low voice sounded beside her ear.
Shi Xiaonian bit her lips and said softly, "No."
"Without you, you wouldn't look so lonely." He could tell this point, "Speak, don't hold it in. I'm no longer the Gong Ou of the past.
Now that he thought about it, in the past, he was just a childish bastard with a grumpy temper.
Shi Xiaonian stood with his back facing him, and did not dare to look at his face, "Did I really say that?""Speak."
"You're too rational now. You're missing something." Shi Xiaonian said honestly."What?"
Gong Ou's black eyes darkened.
"Human feelings. Right, human feelings." Shi Xiaonian rubbed his cold hands together, "You shouldn't treat your foster father like that. In the four years you were gone, how much did he pay for you?But in his eyes, Feng De was just a butler, a servant.
Feng De would definitely feel a chill in his heart.
"You're being too emotional."
Gong Ou said, his voice low and indifferent.
"I'm being sentimental?"
Shi Xiaonian turned and looked at him, somewhat stunned.
"I can't deny that Feng De had indeed invested a lot in these past four years. It's fine for you to address him as your foster father, but there are many things that go against the rules and become extremely difficult to deal with. Why be so troublesome? Gong Ou said.
"But before, you …"
"I know that if it was before, I would definitely go along with you. I'll give you anything you want, but that's why it was so hard for us to walk together. It was because I went against the rules." "In the past, I was simply unable to give you stability, but now that I can give you stability, I know how to give us the safest path, and I don't care about whether or not the eyes of the entire world are on me, you have already seen that result."He had disgraced himself.
He had been separated from her for a long time.
"…"
Shi Xiaonian realized that she couldn't say a word, and couldn't refute him at all."I have the best plans for our future." Gong Ou caressed her face with one hand as he looked at her with his black eyes seducing her, "That Gong Ou from the past was unable to give you anything, so I can give you everything. I know that you need a stable life, a stable home."
"…"
Yeah.
She needed a stable life, a stable home.
He knew her so well, but why couldn't she get excited?
"You still look unhappy."
Gong Ou frowned, he reached out his hands and pulled her into his embrace, allowing her to lean on his chest. He placed his hand on her head and said in a low and deep voice, "Do you blame me for not accompanying you properly these past two days?
"Yes."
Shi Xiaonian nodded obediently and leaned gently on his body. She raised her head to look at the horizon, where there were no longer any fireworks, only darkness and sparse stars.Deep in the night.
Gong Ou went back to the hotel and took care of some matters for a while. Shi Xiaonian watched as he quickly typed on the keyboard, and the pair of black eyes that were facing the computer screen with sharpness and focus caused her to be unwilling to disturb him.
After working, Gong Ou almost immediately fell asleep the moment he touched the bed.Shi Xiaonian lay in his embrace and didn't fall asleep no matter how she looked at it.
She got up from the bed and left the room. She poured herself a glass of water and walked into the living room.
Shi Xiaonian sat down on the floor in front of the window. She held the warm cup with both hands to warm herself up, and her eyes became lifeless.
She never thought that Gong Ou would return with such a mood.
Was she too greedy?She clearly hoped that Gong Ou could treat his sickness, but when he really did come back, she unconsciously searched his body time and time again for signs of the past.
The two of them were clearly together, but there seemed to be a chasm between them.
"…"Shi Xiaonian leaned on the window and looked out into the night.
estrangement.
It was estrangement. For some reason, it seemed like she and Gong Ou had become estranged a little between them. Was it because of her, or because of him?
Shi Xiaonian did not understand.
She closed her eyes and quietly leaned against the French window. She warned herself not to think too much. All she had to do was remember that he had returned. He had returned alive.
Nothing is more important than being alive.
Everything could be ignored as long as he was alive and well.
Yes, that's it.
Sunlight shone into the room, and the sound of the TV came out.
"The life of a scientific and technological genius is destined to be filled with legends. He was born into a noble family, was able to create a miracle in science and technology by relying on his own means, was betrothed to a girl he loved and is now reborn from the dead. Everyone is curious about Gong Ou's experiences during these four years, about where he went to, and what he did? All this was answered at the N.E. press conference. "The voice of the news anchor was the standard broadcast speaker.
Gong Ou walked out of the bathroom after showering and his black eyes swept across the TV, only to see the streamer looking at the camera and saying, "I believe that many female spectators look forward to Gong Ou's love more. His love is just like a perfect fairy tale, a virgin girl has waited four years for the prince to return, I believe Gong Ou's wedding will also be a fairytale wedding."
"…"
Gong Ou looked at the screen coldly, took out his control and turned off the television, glanced at the neatly made bed and turned to walk out.
On the clothes rack hung Shi Xiaonian's down jacket.He found a few rooms and finally went into the kitchen, where the aroma of food drifted in.
Both of Shi Xiaonian's hands were covered in gloves, she was holding onto a piece of steamed fish, and when she turned around, she saw Gong Ou standing at the door, and she laughed: "You're up? "Breakfast."
Gong Ou walked over, his black eyes glanced at the rich array of dishes on the table, and his brows twisted in dissatisfaction, "This was all done by you when you woke up in the morning? "Don't do such chores anymore."
"I thought you'd like what I made."
Shi Xiaonian's smile immediately stiffened as she placed the fish on the table.
"I didn't say I didn't like it." Gong Ou looked at her as he said this, he then sat down at the dining table, "In the past, the reason why I kept asking you to cook was because I'm paranoid. Now that I've treated my own illness, how could I possibly need my own fiancée to cook for me? It's not like you're my servant.""It's alright. I'll be happy to take care of your three meals a day."
Shi Xiaonian took off her gloves and sat down opposite of him.
Gong Ou glanced at her, "You're just used to being abused by me in the past, what's there to be happy about cooking."
"Oh."Shi Xiaonian picked up the chopsticks and started to eat, a pair of eyes sizing up Gong Ou as he placed the dishes between his lips gracefully. He didn't have any thoughts of despising her, so he ate them one by one, but they were no longer as clean as before, and he even asked her to eat a little more.
It was as if she had fallen in love with someone else.
Shi Xiaonian knew that her thoughts were very unfathomable.
"What will you do today?"
Gong Ou casually asked.
"Today? Bringing the twins to decorate the Gallery, Solanum nigrum has never seen how the year is spent in the country. " Shi Xiaonian said.
"Mm. Alright."Gong Ou answered, he had no objections.
"By the way, workaholic, no matter what, don't be busy on New Year's Eve. Let's spend the New Year together." Shi Xiaonian said as she looked at Gong Ou.
"What did you call me?"
Gong Ou looked up and put down his chopsticks."…"
Shi Xiaonian looked at him silently. Did she say the wrong thing?When she saw him again, she didn't know where his point of happiness and anger was.
Gong Ou stared at her cautious appearance, the thin lip raised an arc in the air, "Calling his alright in private, don't call his if you want to go out. You don't have to be so nervous. "
"I thought you were angry."
"I'm not that angry, but you don't have to be so scared." Gong Ou looked at her and laughed, "It seems that I had really frightened you in the past. Don't worry, Gong Ou will never appear again."
