Along with the paper, it began to burn.
Finally, there was only a pile of ashes left in the tin box.
Gong Ou looked at the ashes, curled his lips in satisfaction, and looked towards Shi Xiaonian. Shi Xiaonian stood there and smiled lightly at him, without showing any signs of blame.
"It's done burning. Let's go down and check the bed."
Shi Xiaonian said indifferently, as she reached out and pulled him towards the exit.Gong Ou gave her another glance, "What's wrong with you?"
"What?"
Shi Xiaonian pulled him down the stairs as she asked his question."Why did you come to your hometown this time? You have such a good temper, you would definitely say that about me in the past." Gong Ou stared at her and said. Although her personality was calm, it was not to this extent.
It was as if she would accompany him no matter what he did, never saying a word of no.
"As long as you're happy."Shi Xiaonian laughed and said, but did not mind.
"You don't care if I burn all of Mu Qianchu's things?"
Gong Ou asked.
"Even if you burn the Old house, I won't say anything." Shi Xiaonian stopped in her tracks, turned around and faced him. She lifted both of her hands onto his face, with a gentle look in her eyes, "As long as you are happy, I am fine with anything.""Why are you being so nice to me?"
Gong Ou stared at her and spoke with a heavy tone.
"Because I want you to be happy."
Why are you so happy?
Gong Ou took her hand, "Why do I feel like I'm terminally ill?"
He was not terminally ill, but he was about to face a bitter battle with Lancaster. Before, she had always thought he was invincible, and had always been victorious in several of his confrontations.
But he'd been hurt too much, too much for her to bear.She didn't mean to make everything bad, but on the bad side, at least she wasn't going to let herself feel sorry for it now.
Gong Ou had spoilt her for so many years, but now she was the one spoiling him for no reason at all."What nonsense are you talking about? I hope that you'll be happy."
Shi Xiaonian said as she pulled him towards the living room.
"It's not that it's bad, it's just that you became too fast." It did not even resemble the Shi Xiaonian he knew.
"Women are fickle." Shi Xiaonian did not continue this topic, and pulled him to the bedside, "Take a look, how about it?"
Gong Ou glanced at it and replied without a blemish, "Mhm."
She understood him more and more.
"Then Mr. Gong, Mrs. Gong, we'll be leaving first."The bodyguards said their goodbyes, a few pairs of eyes almost broke into laughter when they saw Shi Xiaonian's school uniform, and all of them left while holding back their laughter.
The rich knew how to play.
Shi Xiaonian stood there awkwardly.
The next day.
Shi Xiaonian was still drowsily hiding in Gong Ou's embrace when suddenly, she heard a burst of noisy music from afar, shocking her so much that she directly sat up on her bed.
"What's going on?"
Gong Ou frowned in displeasure.
"I don't know."Shi Xiaonian was confused as well. She got off the bed, picked up one of Gong Ou's coats and put it on, then walked to the balcony and pressed both hands on the balcony to look outside.
Gong Ou walked closer and hugged her from behind as his black eyes swept towards the source of the voice.
There were a few loud sounds on the open space in the distance, and loud noises came from within. A group of old men and women were dancing with fans in several rows.
Shi Xiaonian laughed, "It's a square dance."
In the past, when she rented a house, she had also often seen dancing in the plaza. Ever since she stayed with Gong Ou, she had not seen any of this ever since.
She looked at the dancing crowd, "Hobbes's Aunt He is also dancing, this old man got up early."
If she were to wake up so early every day, she would definitely break down.
Shi Xiaonian stood in Gong Ou's embrace and looked at Gong Ou with a smile. Seeing Gong Ou's cold face, the smile on her face gradually cooled down, and he said, "You think it's noisy? I told the bodyguards to stop talking with them for the next two days. "
Hearing that, Gong Ou glared at her as if he had seen a ghost, "What are you doing?""What have I done?"
Shi Xiaonian was confused by her stare."I was the one who said that before!" She would only say that she shouldn't disturb anyone else, and that it would be fun to watch her grandpa and aunties dance.
"Pfft." Shi Xiaonian laughed out loud, "Then wouldn't it be good for me to rush you and let you think about it?"
"Not good. I do not need such a Shi Xiaonian! "
Gong Ou said in a deep voice. He wrapped his coat tightly around her before turning around and walking back into the house to put on his clothes.
"You're up now?"
Shi Xiaonian looked at him in shock.
"Yes, I'm going out."
Gong Ou put on clothes and went into the bathroom to wash up.
Shi Xiaonian immediately changed into a new set of clothes, then walked to the bathroom door and looked at him, "Go where, I'll go with you."
This was her hometown, her territory. She could point the way wherever she went."No need." Gong Ou said vaguely as he washed his mouth. He glanced at her, "Go and change your school uniform!"
"If I change into my school uniform, I won't have the face to walk around outside."Shi Xiaonian said in embarrassment. They were all old neighbors in the past, seeing her wearing a school uniform with a ponytail, did they not see her as an idiot?
Gong Ou rinsed his mouth as he stared at her.Shi Xiaonian quickly compromised, "OK, I'll change my school uniform. I'll wear my school uniform every day at the Old house for the next few days to dress up as a junior high student for you."
With that, Shi Xiaonian walked out.
Gong Ou clenched his teeth and stood there, looking at Shi Xiaonian's back. Returning to her Old house, she had truly changed too much this time, was there a need to be so obedient?
If he was happy, she wouldn't stop him even if he killed and set fire to her?When Shi Xiaonian was washing up, Gong Ou was already outside. She had wanted to look for him, but after thinking about his school uniform, he really didn't have the face to go out and show off, so he could only obediently stay in the Old house s to make breakfast.
After doing it halfway, a familiar voice called out, "minuscule thought? Is the minuscule thought here? ""Uncle Hobbes, I'm here." Shi Xiaonian recognized the voice of the Hobbes, and immediately turned it off and walked out, "Is there anything Uncle Hobbes wants from me?"
"Oh, this …" Just as Hobbes wanted to say something, he saw the school uniform Shi Xiaonian was wearing along with a pair of ponytails.
Shi Xiaonian was extremely embarrassed and forced herself to explain, "Reminiscing, reminiscing."
She's not crazy.
She was not retarded.
"Oh, oh." Hobbes nodded his head as if he did not understand, "I asked you to come to my house to eat breakfast, I dragged your husband here for a long time, but he was not willing to eat it, so I came to find you."
"Gong Ou, you saw Gong Ou?"
Shi Xiaonian was startled.
"Yeah." Hobbes nodded, "You didn't know? "He asked me early in the morning if there was a hundred-year-old tree in my house. As soon as I said yes, he wanted to come home with me. He was trying to get someone to dig under the tree, but he wasn't willing to let me make him eat breakfast."
"Digging?"
Shi Xiaonian was stunned.
"That's right, let's go, let's go. Why are you still cooking when you have a big stomach? Let's go eat at your uncle's house. Let's go." Hobbes passionately pulled her away.
Shi Xiaonian didn't even have the chance to refuse and could only follow him out with a childish hairstyle and childish attire.
Hurriedly walking over to Hobbes's house, Shi Xiaonian saw Gong Ou squatting under a big tree with a cloth doll in her hands as she burned it. A big hole appeared on the ground beside his feet, and next to the hole was a familiar metal box.
A bodyguard was at the side filming Gong Ou's burning act.
It turns out that she was buried under a big tree in Hobbes. She couldn't find it, but Gong Ou found it.
She didn't understand what Gong Ou meant. Since she was fine with not paying attention to the gifts, why did she have to guess the location of the gifts from the charades that Mu Qianchu had left behind?"Ah!" Hobbes, who was standing beside Shi Xiaonian, suddenly realized something, "I remember now, this was buried in my home by that child Qian Chuchu, it was so mysterious."
Shi Xiaonian never thought that Mu Qianchu would actually do such a thing at that time.
She walked towards Gong Ou, looked at the cloth doll that was being burned even more vigorously, and frowned slightly. "Are you going to find all the presents from the Twelve Palaces and burn them all?"
The morning light was not bright, but the flames reflected Gong Ou's expressionless face red.
He threw the almost burnt up doll into the metal box and turned to look at her. "You got it right."
"I don't understand what you're trying to do."
Shi Xiaonian said."What, you're still feeling heartache?" Gong Ou cast a glance at her, and said in a strange tone, "This cloth doll's hint is that the next gift will be placed inside the bird's nest. You should remember that the bird's nest will definitely not be there anymore, but you should be able to protect the gift before I do."
"I didn't mean that." Shi Xiaonian looked at him and said, "I don't want to look for those gifts, and I don't understand why you want to look for them either."
"I'd love to."
Gong Ou lowered his gaze and watched as the cloth doll was completely burnt off. Only then did he turn to look at the bodyguard who was watching the shoot, "Are you done shooting?"
"Yes."The bodyguard handed over the phone, Gong Ou looked at the entire process of burning the phone and smiled in satisfaction.
"Why did you record this?"Shi Xiaonian realized that she could not understand Gong Ou at all, and did not understand his actions.
"Don't worry about it." Gong Ou kept his phone, turned his eyes and looked at her, "Where's Bird's Nest?"
Shi Xiaonian recalled.
"You don't want to say? You started to be afraid that I would continue burning? "Gong Ou said coldly while standing under the tree, the thin lip had a hint of paleness in it.
Hobbes looked at them in confusion.
Shi Xiaonian tried to recall it carefully, but her memories were a mess, "I can't really remember it, but … Perhaps it's referring to an artifact made in the past, made in the shape of a bird's nest. Who knows where it is now. "
Hearing that, Gong Ou immediately looked towards the bodyguard.The bodyguard immediately nodded, "We will go find the Old house now."
"Yes."
Gong Ou nodded."…"
Shi Xiaonian looked at Gong Ou. He was really prepared to burn all of the gifts here.
"minuscule thought, my husband, come eat breakfast at my house, let's go." wanted to say something more to Gong Ou, but was pulled in by Hobbes.
Gong Ou kicked the metal box beside his feet, just as he was about to follow in, his phone rang. He picked up his phone and asked coldly, "How is it?"
"I didn't find any trace of Mu Qianchu." The other party replied, "However, we've already investigated the country that Mu Qianchu went to last, and it has also lost its whereabouts. It is as if he disappeared from the face of the earth."
