"It's too quiet, the entire Luo Mansion is too quiet." Gong Ou said indifferently, the hand around her tightened.
"Quiet?" Shi Xiaonian listened for a while, and didn't feel anything different from usual, "Isn't it always like this?"Of course it would be quiet in the middle of the night, how could there be any other sounds?
"No, it's not like this in normal times!"
Gong Ou said coldly.
"Don't they usually?" Shi Xiaonian yawned. She was still full of sleepiness as she said softly, "Is it because Dr. Lo and Bro quarreled today and no one dared to speak loudly?"
She didn't feel any different.
Gong Ou took his watch from the bedside and turned on the night light. Looking at the time, he said coldly, "Every night at this time, a boat will pass by. Today is not the case."
It was too quiet.It was so quiet that the sound of the water outside could barely be heard.
Shi Xiaonian looked at the time, it was one o'clock in the morning, the time when she was at her deepest sleep. She looked at Gong Ou who was in the darkness with a questioning look, "Do you not sleep at this time of night?"
The sound of a boat passing could be heard.
"It was you who turned the boat around as soon as you heard it and slept shakily, blocking your ears." Gong Ou said in a deep voice, "But tonight, the boat did not pass by."
Listening up to here, Shi Xiaonian's heart shook, and it was actually because of her.
"You cover my ears at this time of night?" Shi Xiaonian was completely shaken. She didn't even know that he was awake in the middle of the night just to let her sleep more soundly.
"Yes."
Gong Ou got off the bed, walked to the door, and then walked to the window. He opened the curtain a little, and the moonlight shone on his face, making him look mesmerizingly handsome.His face was filled with vigilance.
"Gong Ou, are you thinking too much? Maybe the boat didn't pass by today." Shi Xiaonian said.
"Impossible!" I went to check it out. I was going to throw money at the boatmen to prevent them from passing through here at night. " Gong Ou said coldly.
"And then?"
"Then the other party was a couple who were here to pick up tourists from the lake. They lived far away, and every night, they would coax their children to sleep before coming over with boats to wait for daybreak." Gong Ou said as he stood by the window and closed the curtain.
"They don't want your money?"
Shi Xiaonian asked.
"Yes!" "What do you mean by 'can't get what you want', make the child look down on them? F * ck, even if you're poor, you still have some ambition!" Gong Ou snorted, and asked somewhat nervously, "Then you didn't do anything to them, right?"
Gong Ou turned his eyes and stared at her, "What nonsense! I'll let you know and not fight me to the death! "It wasn't as if he didn't know that she was soft-hearted. How could he go against her?
Hearing that, Shi Xiaonian could not help but heave a sigh of relief, he was thinking about her more and more.
"That's good, Gong Ou, stop thinking, maybe that couple is too tired, they want to rest for the night."
Isn't he being too sensitive?
Just because a boat doesn't pass by makes so much sense.
"Don't you think the sound of the water tonight is extremely little?" Gong Ou stood there, his voice low.
Hearing that, Shi Xiaonian listened attentively, and the more she listened, the more the sleepiness in her eyes disappeared. In the end, she became completely awake.The sound of water was truly very little.
She remembered that there was a windmill nearby, and the water had turned from its surface and flowed into the lake. Because there was the sound of water splashing from morning to night, the sound was not disturbing, it was small, soft and comfortable, which was why Shi Xiaonian liked the sound.
But now there was no sound at all.
"Why is it so quiet?"Shi Xiaonian looked at Gong Ou and for some reason, she became a little nervous. The boat did not pass by and the water was gone as well.
Gong Ou walked to the bedside, reached out his hand and pressed it on her shoulder, then said calmly, "Don't be nervous, wake up the Mr palace."
"Okay, it's charging next door."Shi Xiaonian pressed a button on her own bracelet and then got off the bed. In the darkness, Gong Ou took out a jacket and put it on her.
At this time, the MR Palace opened the door and looked at them, "Master, Mr. Gong."
"Er Palace, you stay here and protect Shi Xiaonian. I'll go out and take a look!"Gong Ou instructed coldly, he raised his leg and was about to leave, but Shi Xiaonian immediately pulled his hand and said worriedly, "I'll go with you."
She also felt that something was wrong with the entire Luo Mansion."Stay here and lock the door. No one else should open the door."
Gong Ou took her hand and walked outside resolutely.
Shi Xiaonian was about to follow along, but she was stopped by the MR Palace, which locked the door. Shi Xiaonian could only stay in the bedroom as she became anxious in the darkness.
Is it alright for Gong Ou to go out alone?
Shi Xiaonian bit her lips, and the MR Palace could feel the apprehension in her heart, as they consoled, "Master, Mr. Gong will definitely be fine."
"Yes."
Shi Xiaonian nodded, she was still extremely nervous.
Gong Ou walked out of the room alone. As soon as he walked out, he saw that it was completely dark outside, and not even a small light was left in the corridor.
Someone had entered the Luo Mansion.
Thief?
Impossible, a thief can't stop the sound of water.
I'm afraid it's worse than he thought.
Gong Ou's eyes instantly became gloomy and cold. He continued to walk forward, walked to the front of Gong Yu's room, and directly pushed open the door. The door was not locked.Gong Yu was also a light sleeper, after hearing the voice he immediately sat up, "Who?"
"It's me!" Gong Ou said coldly, "Get up immediately, someone has barged in."
"Who is it?"
Gong Yu quickly stood up from the bed and reached out to switch on the light, but his hand was blocked by Gong Ou. Gong Ou stood in front of him and said in a cold and wise voice, "If I'm not mistaken, it's the assassin that Lancaster sent. He wants our lives."
Lancaster never gave up trying to kill him.
"How did they know we were here?" Gong Yu frowned and suddenly reacted, "It's Luo Lie. I had a fight with him and he called over Lancaster's men over, has he gone mad!?"
In all these days, they had never used their power to oppress anyone, much less bring in any bodyguards. In the end, Rollie had managed to stir up Lancaster.
He betrayed them!Gong Yu stood there and almost cursed out loud.
"Now is not the time to talk about this. They are obviously here to assassinate us. We need to retaliate." Gong Ou said coldly, "If they can't fight it out, Shi Xiaonian is fine!"
Shi Xiaonian being fine was the most important thing.
"That's easy. I'll capture Luo Lie and use him as a hostage!"
Gong Yu said, and without saying much more, he quietly walked outside.
The two parted ways.
Gong Yu walked towards Luo Lie's room.
Gong Ou walked towards the direction of the stairs, carefully and cautiously. Before he even reached the front of the stairs, a black shadow rushed out from beside the potted plant, pouncing towards him.
"Bam."A gunshot rang out in the quiet Luo Mansion.
The houses were shaking.
Shi Xiaonian who was in the bedroom was sitting on the bed when she suddenly heard the sound of a gunshot. She immediately jumped up from the bed and looked at the door in shock, then disregarded everything and ran over.
Why would there be gunfire?
Will Gong Ou be okay?In his darkness, her face was pale, devoid of color.
"Master, Mr. Gong wants you to stay."
The palace blocked her way with its huge, hard body."I'm worried that something will happen to Gong Ou. Let me out." Shi Xiaonian tried to push open the MR Palace, but to no avail. The MR Palace stood there motionlessly, "Master, Mr. Gong told you to stay."
"Since you call me master, why not listen to me first?"
Shi Xiaonian said, she was extremely anxious, she bit her lips tightly, she was really worried for Gong Ou."Because I want to protect Master's safety." "Yes," the man said.
"…"
"Master, do you think that we can protect the Mr. Gong if we go out now? Or add to the mess? " Shi Xiaonian stood there stiffly.
That's right, what could she do when she went out? She could only cause trouble for Gong Ou."But I'm really worried about Gong Ou, I want to see if he's alright."
Why was there a gunshot the moment he left the room? She had no idea what had happened.
Shi Xiaonian painfully pressed her head against hers. Every time, it was Gong Ou who blocked everything for her, and it was never her who blocked the wind and rain for him. This kind of feeling was too annoying.
"Bam."
Another shot came from outside, and it was terrifying.Shi Xiaonian stood there with a pale face, staring at the tightly shut door, her breathing grew more and more hurried, "Gong Ou can't get into trouble, Gong Ou can't get into trouble."
A faint sound of fighting came from outside.
Other than these, there were no other sounds. No one screamed from being shot, and no one cried out. This made Shi Xiaonian even more flustered.
She was worried that Gong Ou was shot, and did not want her to worry so she did not even make a sound."Er Palace, can you go out and take a look?" "Please."
Shi Xiaonian looked pleadingly at the Mr Palace for help. Right after she finished speaking, the door was slammed twice. Shi Xiaonian's eyes widened in fear, and the MR Palace immediately used their own bodies to block in front of her.
"Shi Xiaonian, it's me. Open the door."Gong Ou's low voice sounded from outside.
"…"
Shi Xiaonian immediately rushed out from behind the Mr palace and opened the door without hesitation. Gong Ou was panting and standing at the entrance, but the light outside had already been turned on.
Shi Xiaonian looked at him anxiously. "Gong Ou, are you alright?"
She looked at him up and down, only to see that there was a line of deep red blood on the back of his hand. Her breathing became sluggish, Gong Ou raised his hand, his breathing became heavy from exhaustion, "It's nothing, it's just a scratch."
"No other injuries?"Shi Xiaonian's face was as white as paper.
"Nope.""Don't lie to me." Don't lie to her.
"I really don't have any. Do you want me to strip you?" Seeing her pale face, Gong Ou said as he reached out to take off his clothes.
Shi Xiaonian threw herself into his embrace regardless of what happened and hugged her tightly. Her heart was still thumping hard, "It's good that you're fine, it's good that you're fine.
