Luo Lie said that she had been sleeping for two days and two nights, but Gong Ou was still wearing the clothes from that day, and the corners were wrinkled.
He was sitting there with a faint green stubble on his chin, which did not match the pale color of the boy. The thin bloodshot eyes revealed his haggardness.
fool.
Shi Xiaonian's heart felt like it was rubbed by something, and it hurt a little. She stretched out her hand towards Gong Ou, and Gong Ou glanced at her coldly, "What are you doing? Didn't you see me drinking coffee? I'm not free!"
“…”
Shi Xiaonian frowned and struggled to sit up. As soon as she stood up, the pain immediately sounded the alarm, and she staggered and fell down.
"Shi Xiaonian!"
Gong Ou rushed towards her without thinking, picked her up, and held her wrist tightly with his hand, his palm was hot.
He failed to hold the coffee cup steady with his other hand, and the coffee spilled onto her hand.
It's cold.
The coffee he drank was cold.
Shi Xiaonian leaned on his arm and looked at him in astonishment. Gong Ou glared at her, "What are you looking at? I like drinking cold drinks! I will only drink cold drinks in this life!"
Are you afraid of burning her again
He was frightened.
During these two days and nights with her, had he been relying on ice-cold coffee to survive
“…”
Shi Xiaonian looked at him, her eyes were red, and she raised her hand to hold his clothes.
"don't want!"
Gong Ou refused.
“…”
Shi Xiaonian silently clenched again.
"I told you not to!"
Gong Ou turned his head in disgust and did not look at her.
Shi Xiaonian stubbornly clutched his clothes, once again, again, and again, for a long time, she listened to Gong Ou sighing softly.
He rarely sighed.
Gong Ou threw the coffee cup directly into the trash can, tightened his hands around her body and slowly laid her flat on the bed. Once she was flat, he didn't let go and just held her like this.
Even if she didn't say a word, he knew what she needed.
His breath enveloped Shi Xiaonian. She closed her eyes and quietly enjoyed this moment of embrace. It was so rare. For a moment, she thought she would never hug Gong Ou again and never live a happy life again. .
This hug lasted for a long time. When it was long, Xiaonian was afraid that he would be tired, so she patted him to let him go. Gong Ou hugged her for a long time before letting go.
He didn't move away, just sat on the edge of the bed and stared down at her face.
Shi Xiaonian looked at Gong Ou deeply, smiled faintly, her smile was full of heartache, she reached out and patted the quilt on her body.
"I don't sleep, I'm not sleepy."
Gong Ou understood what she meant at a glance.
I wouldn’t drink coffee if I wasn’t sleepy.
When Xiaonian wanted to speak, he stopped her. Seeing that Gong Ou was about to curse again, she had no choice but to grab his hand and put it in front of her.
Fingers clasped tightly together.
Shi Xiaonian looked at him and was thinking about how to express it when Gong Ou had already spoken, "Everyone is fine and safe. The children have no psychological problems and are all healthier than you!"
Hearing this, Shi Xiaonian smiled with relief.
Just hope everyone is fine.
Gong Ou stretched out his hand to brush her hair and said word by word, "Shi Xiaonian, if there is another time, I really don't want you as an ugly monster!"
“…”
Is it that ugly
Gong Ou always thought she was the most beautiful, but if even he couldn't accept it, how ugly would she be? How dare she look in the mirror in the future.
Shi Xiaonian frowned and broke away from Gong Ou's hand little by little.
"What are you doing?" Gong Ou grabbed her hand tightly and stared at her with his dark eyes, "Why did you let me go if I didn't let go?"
“…”
It was he who thought she was ugly.
"Why are you so small-minded, Shi Xiaonian? I'm just talking!" Gong Ou understood what she meant. Seeing that her injuries didn't hurt her anymore, he cleared his throat and said, "Don't say you're not disfigured, you're just disfigured." Even if I lose my eyes and nose, I want you too! Okay!"
“…”
Shi Xiaonian thought about the black line on his head. This kind of comfort sounded weird.
She turned her head and looked in the direction of the window. A little light came in. The room was very quiet. There was only Gong Ou and her. She didn't have to worry about danger coming in the next second.
It was as if he had been through a mountain of swords and fire, all the strength in his body was exhausted, and the current tranquility seemed a bit unrealistic.
"Now is our reality." Gong Ou stared at her and said.
“…”
Do you know what she is thinking
Shi Xiaonian looked at Gong Ou blankly. Gong Ou held her hand tightly and said with a magnetic voice, "Shi Xiaonian, you just had a nightmare. When you woke up, we are still together. I didn't leave you. You care." No one has left you, our home is still here and will always be there.”
“…”
Shi Xiaonian looked at him steadily, and then nodded vigorously.
She believed everything he said, their family had always been there.
"Rest, I'm right here, I'm not going anywhere." Gong Ou said.
“…”
Shi Xiaonian really wanted him to rest, but she knew he would never agree. All she could do was to recover quickly and get better quickly so that Gong Ou could feel better.
…
Half a month later, in the Gong family castle, Shi Xiaonian applied medicine with Feng De's help. Her face was painted white and she felt a sharp pain.
I have no choice but to endure it.
Every time it was time to apply the medicine, she would send Gong Ou to make egg fried rice, and let Gong Ou watch her applying the medicine to knock over the roof.
When she frowned, he thought she was in terrible pain. He was so nervous that he wanted to smash the furniture in the entire room, and then drag Luo Lie, who was dispensing the medicine, in and beat her up.
"Dr. Luo's medicine does have miraculous effects. Xiaonian, you are feeling much better."
Feng De looked at her lovingly.
Shi Xiaonian smiled slightly, took the pen and paper in front of him, and wrote a sentence on it -
I go out for a walk.
"Okay, I'll accompany you."
Shi Xiaonian shook his head.
"Okay, I'll tidy up the room, you be careful."
Feng De nodded and said, Shi Xiaonian is stronger and doesn't like to be treated with such caution as a seriously ill patient, but she is recovering well and can walk alone, but she can't run or jump yet.
Shi Xiaonian smiled and agreed, slowly stood up from the chair, held the wall with one hand and walked out.
Let’s go see how the Gong Ou egg fried rice is doing.
Shi Xiaonian walked out of the room and walked out step by step. After walking for a while, she felt a little tired and stopped to rest. Rehabilitation should not be rushed.
While resting against the wall, Shi Xiaonian heard the voices of two maids coming from the other side of the corner.
"Wow, is it so thrilling? It sounds like watching a movie, so exciting!" A girl said excitedly, "I really admire my young master for actually thinking of using various techniques to fool George around."
"Of course." The other voice was also very proud.
"The young master can actually disguise himself, so why didn't he just kill that annoying George? Anyway, it was self-defense and not illegal. The young lady's life was in danger at that time."
"It's because the madam and the young master haven't been rescued yet."
Shi Xiaonian stood there and listened quietly, only to hear another maid say in confusion, "Huh? It's strange. In the past, the second young master was not afraid of falling out with the family because of the young madam. He didn't care about being beaten up and bruised. He looked at the young master. His wife's life is hanging by a thread and he's not willing to shoot to save her?"
"Then I don't know. I heard from people that the second young master originally wanted to ask George for mercy, but later he changed his mind for some reason."
Shi Xiaonian was stunned there, her heart was hit hard.
Suicide and begging for mercy
She has always wondered why Gong Ou behaved so rationally and calmly this time. It turns out that he almost hurt himself and begged for mercy. Fool... It turns out that he has never changed.
Shi Xiaonian bit her lip and was about to leave when the maid who knew the inside story spoke again, "Also, I heard that after the young lady fainted, the second young master got the news. Although the madam and the young master were found, , but the explosives program was installed all over his body. The program is super difficult, and there are only ten minutes left. Even the bomb team present can't defuse it, and George is crazy and can't ask anything."
“…”
Shi Xiaonian's eyes widened in shock. Even though she knew everything was over, she still felt chilly, as cold as if she had walked into a world of ice and snow.
She asked her adoptive father, Luo Lie, and her mother. Everyone told her in an understatement that they were just under house arrest and were not injured. They were saved after George's bodyguards revealed their whereabouts in order to protect themselves. Nothing happened. I didn’t expect such a thing to happen.
"What? Did the second young master solve it? The second young master is the king of technology!" Another maid asked worriedly.
"Of course it's the second young master." The maid said, "Did you know that later experiments proved that even the most intelligent computer today would take half an hour to crack the program, and it would take half an hour for the computer!"
"My god."
"How do you think the second young master did it at that time? There were only ten minutes, while his beloved wife was unconscious and uncertain about her life and death, and at the same time his mother, children, and brother were all tied up with explosives. In that kind of countdown situation, He can actually crack it." The maid repeatedly marveled, "If it were me, I would have been so nervous that I fainted on the spot."
When Xiaonian was leaning against the wall, a burst of warmth suddenly ran over her face. She stretched out her hand to wipe it, only to realize that she had shed tears.
She originally thought that in the overall situation set by George, she would be the most seriously injured. She had to bear a lot for Gong Ou and her family. She was grateful for all this.
But now she understands why George set up such a trap and why he had no intention of capturing Gong Ou from beginning to end. Because the rescued person is the lucky one among the misfortunes, and the one who saves him... bears all the burden.
It was always Gong Ou who was in trouble for George.
In those ten minutes, Gong Ou's suffering was beyond her imagination.
"Have you said enough?" Gong Ou's sharp scolding came.
"Second Young Master." The tone of the two maids immediately weakened, "Second Young Master, let's go do something."
"Go away! If Shi Xiaonian hears you say this, I will fire you all!"
Gong Ou scolded coldly and walked forward with the egg fried rice in his hand. When he turned the corner, he saw Shi Xiaonian standing there, wearing simple white pajamas, with long black hair draped over his shoulders, and a slender figure. She was thin, with her head lowered and white medicine applied to her face. (To be continued)
