When Shi Xiaonian and Mu Qianchu arrived at the dining hall, the two children were already sitting at the dining table waiting for food.
"Have you finished your homework?"
Mu Qianchu reached out and touched it, pulling out a chair, letting Gong Kui sit. Gong Kui looked at him and said sweetly, "Uncle Mu, take a seat, I have a present for you."
Surprisingly, Shi Xiaonian pulled Gong Yao to a corner and sat down.
"Oh?"Mu Qianchu was also slightly surprised.
"Holy said that everyone here will listen to your words. You are the one protecting us, so you must have worked hard. That's why I did it for you." Gong Kui's voice was extremely sweet.
After saying that, Shi Xiaonian couldn't help but look at Gong Yao, who was sitting beside her. His beautiful face had no expression, but his eyes were deep and dark, like Gong Ou's.He was smart enough to observe the situation here. He knew who was in charge, and he didn't know if this thought was good or bad for him.
Gong Kui handed over a yellow pillowcase with both hands, looking a little shy. "Uncle Mu, I drew a small F, and teacher made a pillowcase out of my own drawing for you. It's just that my drawing is a little ugly."
The pillowcase really had a little white dog painted on it. It stuck out its tongue, but the brush style was childish yet very cute.
Mu Qianchu took it and earnestly touched it, smiling gently, "Solanum nigrum must be very beautiful, your mother also liked to paint when she was young."
"As long as you like Uncle Mu."
Seeing Mu Qianchu happily accepting it, Gong Kui ran over to Shi Xiaonian happily and sat down beside her, smiling widely.
"How do you know I used to paint when I was a kid?" Gong Yao suddenly said, the thing he was paying attention to was different from the others.
Hearing this, Mu Qianchu was stunned, and did not speak for a moment. Shi Xiaonian then said, "Uncle Mu and I grew up to be good friends."
"So it turns out that you guys have been good friends since you were young. When you were our age?" Gong Kui asked naively.
The chef brought the fruit soup over. Shi Xiaonian smiled and did not say anything, he divided the fruit soup between the two children and pushed a cup in front of Mu Qianchu.
Without needing more words, Mu Qianchu leaned forward and used a pair of slightly scarred hands to touch the table. He touched the cup, picked up a spoon and spooned a mouthful into his mouth, then smiled and said, "It tastes really good."
"As long as you're sweet, you'll feel good." Shi Xiaonian said with a smile. Mu Qianchu had been like this since he was young.
"You make it sound like I have no taste at all." Mu Qianchu retorted, but he did not look angry at all.
"I didn't say that."
Shi Xiaonian lowered her head and ate the fruit soup from her cup. As expected, the chef cooked very well, the fruit was cool, and eating it at this season was very comfortable. Even the baby in her stomach moved a few times, perhaps she liked it a lot.Gong Yao was eating his food, looking at Shi Xiaonian, then looking at Mu Qianchu, his black eyes turned, and suddenly asked: "When will the Dad come to pick us up?"
These words made Shi Xiaonian sob, and she was no longer in the mood to eat.
They were facing danger on their side, but they could only stay put. Gong Ou didn't know what he would encounter in the UK, so he came to fetch them … He didn't know how long it would take.
Could Gong Ou come back to pick them up? Could they really wait for the day Gong Ou came to pick him up? She really didn't dare to think about it. He could only take one step at a time.Shi Xiaonian lowered her eyes in hesitation for a moment, then looked at her. She suddenly stood up, placed the unfinished fruit soup on the table, and said, "You told me that the Dad would definitely come to pick us up, I think he was done for. I'll go study first. Farewell. "
He bowed his head to them like a little gentleman and turned away.Shi Xiaonian opened her eyes in shock. She didn't have time to call him, so Gong Kui quickly followed Gong Yao and ran away, like a little shadow.
She looked at Mu Qianchu with a slightly surprised expression, "He never told me that he missed Gong Ou."She had always thought that Gong Yao was very sensitive to Gong Ou's feelings, and wanted to get close to her but also doubted his feelings. She hadn't thought that after being here for so long, he would still change his mind.
Was this an unexpected good thing?
"Idiot." Hearing her words, Mu Qianchu could not help but shake his head and laugh, "Why do you still not understand, he is watching me on behalf of his father."
"…"Shi Xiaonian was stunned for a moment before reacting to the meaning behind Mu Qianchu's words. She couldn't help but laugh as she pressed her forehead down.
Did he really think that there was something between her and Mu Qianchu?"This little guy truly thinks too much, but I can see that he has feelings for Gong Ou." Mu Qianchu didn't mind at all.
Shi Xiaonian nodded, "This is also quite unexpected to me. If Gong Ou knew that Holy was protecting him behind his back, he would definitely be crazy with joy."When she thought of Gong Ou's complacent look, she could not help but want to laugh.
Mu Qianchu sat there, listening to her even breathing, he extended his hand and placed the fruit soup on the table, "Look, you can laugh now."
Shi Xiaonian touched the corner of her lips, and said from the bottom of her heart, "Thank you."
She had to admit that Mu Qianchu's words had enlightened her greatly since she had sealed herself away for so long.
"I know that you haven't really walked out yet, and I also know that you hope that Gong Ou found out about your abnormality even more so, and that he was the one who guided you." Mu Qianchu said with a faint smile.
"He's very busy and in danger." Shi Xiaonian said.
"Thus, I believe that after this calamity passes, you will be able to truly walk out. You will definitely be able to actively face life." Mu Qianchu said.
This tribulation had also brought up this matter.
Shi Xiaonian bit her lips, looked at Mu Qianchu and said seriously: "Qian Chu, don't you think it's strange? Who exactly was the one who discovered that Gong Ou had disappeared? ""Isn't this very normal? If someone were to pay close attention, they would realize that Gong Ou was not around. " Mu Qianchu didn't understand why Shi Xiaonian had to be so calculative over this.
"Gong Ou always appears at night, he must have come out after returning to his own bedroom. Furthermore, with his identity as a member of the MR Palace, a robot walking out of his bedroom wouldn't garner that much attention." Shi Xiaonian said, "Furthermore, even if someone had noticed the robot, there is no reason for him to not find out that the robot is Gong Ou."
Gong Ou was such a vigilant person, anyone who followed him would definitely discover it."It's impossible that they were discovered by Gong Ou. That way, the traitor would have discovered the secret door and wouldn't have to use gunfire to probe us." Mu Qianchu said, "Maybe someone intentionally knocked on the bedroom door, and found out that Gong Ou was not there, that's why they were suspicious."
Hearing this, Shi Xiaonian became even more determined. She looked at Mu Qianchu and said, "You don't know, no one is allowed to enter Gong Ou's room. It's impossible for anyone to even knock on the door.
"Except what?"
Mu Qianchu asked."Other than me and my foster father, there's also Gong Ou, the housekeeper for Gong Ou." Shi Xiaonian said. This was something that no one in the Gong Jia dared to break, even Feng De did not dare to knock on his bedroom door. Furthermore, the rest of the people who passed by were ordered to go around and not make any noise.
After saying that, her heart skipped a beat.Hearing this, Mu Qianchu's expression changed, "Could it be …"
"Impossible." Shi Xiaonian immediately stood up from the dining table, "It's impossible for father to betray Gong Ou, it's impossible!"
"But if you exclude all possibilities, then the remaining possibility would be... "Reasonable." Mu Qianchu really didn't want to splash any cold water on Shi Xiaonian, but he had guessed it himself.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible." Shi Xiaonian's face became somewhat pale, "Furthermore, foster father must have gone to England with Gong Ou …"
"That might not be the case. Gong Ou will definitely keep his trusted aides here, if he is worried about you." Mu Qianchu interrupted her, "If Housekeeper Feng is a traitor, then things will become complicated. He will find this place sooner or later."
With his identity as a butler, it was too convenient for him to act. If he couldn't find this place today, he could also find this place tomorrow."Foster father will not betray us. If one day I encounter danger, he can protect me with his life." Shi Xiaonian said excitedly. She would definitely not doubt Feng De's loyalty.
"minuscule thought, don't be agitated."
"Also, if foster father wanted to betray Gong Ou, he could have done so long ago. There's no need to wait until now." Shi Xiaonian refused to believe it. She was serious, why was it that the more she analyzed, the more wrong she got."Sometimes betrayal is not automatic. It may be forced." Mu Qianchu said, he had seen such moves many times before.
Forced?
Shi Xiaonian was dumbstruck. Could it be that daughter of his foster father … Had he been captured by Lancaster to threaten him?
No way.Surely not.
"minuscule thought, what you discovered is very important. If Housekeeper Feng really is a traitor, then we can't just sit still and wait for death. We have to think of a way to survive." Mu Qianchu said as he stood up and turned to leave."…"
Shi Xiaonian sat there, staring blankly at the dining table in front of him. Impossible, it's impossible, her foster father wouldn't be a traitor, it's better for her foster father to be loyal to Gong Ou than to his own daughter. He wouldn't harm them.But how could he explain everything that was happening in front of him?
Who else but him could stare at Gong Ou all day without arousing any suspicion?Had his godfather been secretly pressed by Lancaster? But she couldn't contact Gong Ou now, otherwise everything would be simple.
Shi Xiaonian's entire being was in a mess. She walked to the end of the corridor and stood in front of the door of the junk room. Her eyes were filled with complex emotions as she looked at the door.
She pushed open the door and went inside. She stood in front of the secret door, her white teeth clenched tightly around her lips.
Even if his daughter was captured, he could ask for Gong Ou's help, and Gong Ou would definitely help …
Foster father, it can't be your fault, right?
Shi Xiaonian walked towards the secret door and extended her hand out wanting to push it open. She really wanted to go over and ask Feng De about it, but the moment she touched his hand, she retreated in her senses.
No, her appearing in the Imperial Castle at this time would be suicide, even if Gong Ou was not there.
