I saw him yesterday
"…"
Shi Xiaonian was so frightened that she retreated two steps, widened her eyes as she watched the bookshelf move away, and sucked in a breath of cold air.
So it wasn't the lock of the safe, it was the mechanism.
The shelves moved to the side and stacked in front of another bookshelf, like a sliding door. Inside was still a room, the floor the same color, separating a study into two bookshelves.
The light inside was darker, all of it coming in from the outside.Shi Xiaonian took two steps forward and peeked her head in. An indescribable cold aura drifted out, causing her to shiver.
Inside, there was a row of cabinets with many badges on it. It should be Gong Jue's reward, there were so many of them.
Gong Jue had really done many things for the sake of the Gong Jia's reputation. Shi Xiaonian unknowingly walked two steps forward and saw a golden door. The room inside was extremely dark and gloomy, but a cold light was emitting from the door."…"
Shi Xiaonian pursed her lips, quietly walked in, and looked around.
The deeper they went, the colder it became. Would it not freeze to death to death to stay here?Shi Xiaonian finally understood why Gong Jue's watch was so cold. She continued to walk further in, and slowly, the world at the other end of the sect entered her line of sight.
There were many fresh flowers picked from the garden on the ground. Shi Xiaonian had thought that Gong Jue was someone who loved flowers, but she saw a dark wooden chest with complicated engravings on the corner.That light didn't seem like the light he normally saw. It was faint and gloomy, making people's hearts palpitate with fear.
"…"
Shi Xiaonian hugged herself coldly as she looked over to that side with suspicion.No, that's not a wooden chest, why does it look like … A coffin?
Study room? A coffin?
Realizing this, Shi Xiaonian's eyes widened in fear. She did not dare go any closer and turned around to run, but many ghost movies from the castle that she had seen before flashed past her mind as cold sweat trickled down her face.No, she had to tell Gong Ou right away, there was something weird about this Gong Jia.
He must come back and check.
Gong Ou had probably not known anything since he had left home for many years.
Afraid, Shi Xiaonian stumbled and ran out.
On the other side, the afternoon sunlight was just right and warm enough. Feng De led the horse and walked towards Gong Ou, who pulled the reins and elegantly mounted the horse.Gong Yu rode his horse to his side and laughed, "I still like to hunt in the forest at home. I don't have any sense of direction here."
"A loss is a loss. What excuse are you trying to come up with?"Gong Ou mocked him as his black eyes glanced at him. Suddenly, the corner of his eye twitched, and his expression changed as his face darkened.
"What's wrong?"
Gong Yu thought that he had thought of something important.
Gong Ou pulled the reins, and said coldly, "My eyes jumped a little.""So?" Gong Yu didn't understand what he wanted to express.
"Feng De, dial Shi Xiaonian's number." Gong Ou ordered coldly, he handed the gun in his hand over to the servant beside him.Gong Yu rubbed the horse beneath him, confused by his words, "What does this eye jump have to do with the minuscule thought?"
How did he jump over this topic, directly jumping from his eyes onto Shi Xiaonian's body? Would the span be too big?
"In China, there's a saying about jumping eyes." Gong Ou growled, staring at Feng De gloomily, he said impatiently, "Have you called yet? Why are you so slow! "
"Eyes jumping?" Gong Yu was stunned, then he laughed: "When did you become so superstitious about this?""After knowing Shi Xiaonian."
"…"
Gong Yu sat on a white horse and helplessly laughed, watching as Gong Ou impatiently grabbed his phone and personally made a call.
Gong Ou's anxious and furious expression slowly froze Gong Yu's smile. It was better for a person to be a paranoia, and do whatever they want, express whatever they want, and not think too much into it. Such a life would save them a lot of regrets.
The call finally connected. Gong Ou asked without thinking, "Shi Xiaonian, are you alright?"
His tone was tinged with tension.
Gong Yu started laughing. Shi Xiaonian, on the other side, would definitely not be able to understand what was going on, it was truly a disguised show of love. He pulled on the reins, bent down and took the hunting rifle from the assistant's hands, then slowly walked forward.
"Shi Xiaonian, speak!"
Gong Ou didn't manage to get an answer from Shi Xiaonian as he sat on the carriage.
"I'm fine, what else can I do?"Shi Xiaonian's calm voice sounded beside his ears.
"What are you doing?"
Gong Ou asked.
"Me?" Shi Xiaonian paused for a moment, then said: "I hung a new painting in the study, you will be able to see it when you return."
"Yes, I have nothing to do in the afternoon, so I might as well go to sleep." That way, he would have the energy to deal with him in the evening."Oh, okay."
After confirming that Shi Xiaonian was alright, Gong Ou hung up the phone and threw the phone back to him. Then, holding onto the reins, he steered the horse forward and caught up with Gong Yu.
Shi Xiaonian stumbled out of the ice-cold room. Before she had the time to think about how to close the bookshelf, she saw another person standing in front of the desk."…"
Shi Xiaonian was so scared that she almost fell down and retreated backwards.Her long hair was loose, reaching her waist, and her face without any makeup looked extremely haggard and weak. She turned around and looked at Shi Xiaonian with a pair of faint eyes.
Shi Xiaonian was shocked by her gaze, and an unspeakable fear arose in the bottom of her heart."Sorry, I didn't mean to. I was just helping to get a watch box."
Shi Xiaonian quickly apologized. She subconsciously felt that she had broken the Gong Jia's secret that she shouldn't have.
"You saw it?" Luo Qi looked at her and sighed, "I thought that since the arrangements were made to go to Switzerland, this matter would end there. I was going to seal this study, but it was too late. "
Shi Xiaonian stood there, her body cold as she looked at her silently.
Actually, even now, Shi Xiaonian still did not know what she had seen.
"Inside is …"Shi Xiaonian pointed to the bookshelves and asked.
Before she could finish speaking, the antique phone on the desk rang. Luo Qi picked up the phone, cleared her throat and calmly said, "Yes, I am his wife, I know, you are willing to come forward to settle the grudge between us Gong Jia s, I am very satisfied, I will tell Gong Jue about this matter. "Good, good, good bye."
With that, Luo Qi hung up the phone and stood up from the desk. She looked at Shi Xiaonian and said, "Come, follow me."
"…"
When he thought about the cold air and the cold light, Shi Xiaonian became a little afraid. After thinking about it, he braced himself and walked in, following behind Luo Qi.
The air inside was so cold that Shi Xiaonian hugged herself.
Luo Qi slowly walked inside and pressed on the light. The inside immediately became bright.Seeing a room that was bright, the fear in Shi Xiaonian's heart gradually lessened. Under the light of the lamp, this room was no longer as terrifying.
Luo Qi walked in front of the cabinet that was full of medals, picked up a clean handkerchief and wiped each medallion one by one, and said, "This medallion was given to me not long after I married into the Gong Jia, I accompanied my husband to the royal family to receive the medallion."
"…"Shi Xiaonian didn't know what Luo Qi really wanted to say.
Luo Qi stood there, wiping away the badges time and time again, her eyes were filled with grief and sadness. "Every time he encounters a predicament, he would come here and look at these badges.Does Luo Qi want to talk about Gong Jue with her?
Struggle for a lifetime?
A lifetime?"Come with me." Luo Qi said, and walked towards the direction of the Broken Sect with his back straight.
Shi Xiaonian looked at the direction of the Broken Sect, frowned, and walked towards there while hugging herself, step by step. Under the bright light, the cold light covered everything and nothing could be seen.
Luo Qi walked in.
Shi Xiaonian hesitated as she walked towards it. The wall was made out of a grayish-black wooden sculpture, with a cross that was as tall as two people, and a platform in the middle, on top of it were some books from the Bible. There were also candles that had not been completely lit up yet, and below that were a bunch of fresh flowers, which were extremely colorful.
She slowly turned her head and saw what she had expected.Not a wooden box.
It was a coffin.It really was a coffin, and the coffin was made in an extremely exquisite and heavy manner, the cold and gloomy light was coming from inside. Luo Qi stood at the side of the coffin and looked inside, a light graceful smile appearing on his face, tears flowing down his face.
"…"
Shi Xiaonian slowly walked over to Luo Qi's side and looked down.
There was a well-dressed body, a man's body, elegantly dressed, a watch on his hand, short curly brown hair, closed eyes, deep bloods, and a white frost on his face and hair.The coffin was like a huge freezer that froze people.
The man was lying inside, and even in this state, he could still make out his handsome appearance.
But Shi Xiaonian was not able to care so much, she was scared, her heart started to thump hard, she kept retreating until she reached the wall, she had nowhere to retreat to, when her feet landed on the flower branches, it made a soft sound, scaring her to death.
Luo Qi still stood there, calm as usual, other than the tears on her face.Shi Xiaonian looked at Luo Qi in fear, then looked at the gigantic carved cross on the wall.
Why was there a corpse in Gong Jue's study.
What was going on?
What did Luo Qi's tears count for?
"My husband is called Gong Jue."
Luo Qi slowly said, her voice was filled with sorrow.
Hearing this, Shi Xiaonian's eyes widened in fear, as she blurted out, "Impossible, I saw him yesterday."
How could Gong Jue lie there?
"That's just a double we're looking for, a double who can perfectly imitate my husband's voice." Luo Qi said, "After training for an entire year, he is still going to undergo plastic surgery to make sure that he is exactly the same. However, there is still a deviation, so we can only make him appear less."
