At the press conference, the crowd was in commotion, and reporters rushed to ask questions, "Then why did you choose to make it public today?"
"Because I decided to formally fight for custody of the twins."
Shi Xiaonian said firmly to the camera.
The whole place was in an uproar.
"Fighting for custody rights with Gong Ou and the Gong family? Can you win it?" The reporters all thought this was a fantasy.
"Since the twins were born, I have never argued with the Gong family. I know that in the eyes of many people, having children in the Gong family is a better choice, but material things are not the benchmark for measuring everything. The twins will be six years old after celebrating the New Year. They have the right to choose who they live with."
Shi Xiaonian said, orderly and neither humble nor arrogant.
It turned out that she was using the media and public opinion to declare war on him.
Gong Ou saw Shi Xiaonian's intention, and his face turned extremely ugly. He stepped on the accelerator and sped away, holding the steering wheel with his fingers firmly. Shi Xiaonian's unhurried voice came to his ears. Her voice was clean and clear, and she spoke clearly. clear.
Breaking up and fighting for custody were private matters between two people, but she moved it in front of the media because she knew that with her own abilities, she would lose nothing before the fight was over.
She deliberately made insinuations in front of the media, saying that if something happened to her, it would be him and the Gong family who did it.
Smart Xi Xiaonian.
But why should she use her intelligence on him
Gong Ou drove a fast car in the city and drove all the way to the Mansta Hotel. With a handsome flick, Gong Ou parked the car directly in front of the hotel door.
The press conference just ended.
When Gong Ou got out of the car, Shi Xiaonian was walking out of the hotel door, and the two met head-on.
The two of them were wearing dark blue colors, and they looked a bit like couple outfits.
Gong Ou stood in front of the sports car, his black eyes staring straight at her.
She's prettier than she looks on camera.
Shi Xiaonian stood at the door of the hotel and looked up at Gong Ou. He was still wearing the same coat from yesterday. It seemed that he had just arrived from Huatian Hotel.
One night of warmth.
If he hadn't discovered that she had held a press conference, he would still be beside Mona at this moment.
The wind blew gently, and the white snow fell down, bringing with it a burst of perfume.
He smelled of Mona's perfume.
She smelled it, and the smell was like poison that seeped into her body with her breath, seeping into her limbs and bones.
She looked at Gong Ou as if she were looking at a stranger.
She really wanted to know how he could appear in front of her calmly with this scent of perfume. He was so mentally strong.
Eyes facing each other.
Gong Ou stared at her coldly.
The reporters walked out contentedly after getting the big reveal. Before they even left the house, they saw Gong Ou and Shi Xiaonian standing face to face outside.
It was simply the meeting of the century.
Flashes clicked immediately, photographers frantically took pictures of them, and reporters quickly rushed over with their microphones raised.
Gong Ou glanced at the reporters indifferently, stepped forward, grabbed Shi Xiaonian's hand, pulled her to his sports car, and stuffed her into the sports car, with a somewhat rough movement.
"I'll do it myself, don't touch me."
Shi Xiaonian looked at him with cold eyes and forcefully broke away his hand.
Touching her with the same hands that had been touching other people all night made her sick.
“…”
Gong Ou was stung by her look. He closed the car door, got in the car and drove away under the siege of reporters.
There was no sound from either of them the whole way.
Gong Ou drove the car out of the city. Shi Xiaonian noticed that the car was going further and further off the road, and couldn't help but said, "Where are you going? Don't you have a press conference later?"
When he came back, he told the media that he would hold a press conference today to explain his disappearance for the past four years.
Snowflakes fell along the road and landed lightly on the sports car.
"You've messed up my plans."
Gong Ou said with some displeasure, his face was gloomy, he picked up the Bluetooth headset and put it on his ears, and said to the mobile phone on the phone holder, "Call Secretary Wang."
The call was quickly answered.
Gong Ou calmly ordered, "Today's press conference is temporarily cancelled. Today's meetings are all postponed. I urge the following to put the holographic era planning project on my desk before get off work today."
Shi Xiaonian sat in the passenger seat and turned to look at Gong Ou.
His profile was handsome, with deep contours, and his eyes were deep and sexy. He had the face she loved most, but he had a different soul.
If it was before, he would have jumped when she said she wanted to break up, but now, he is handling his official affairs so calmly.
In the past, Gong Ou was too focused, cared too little, and never cared about so much. Now Gong Ou has everything under his control. He can do many things by himself and do them very well.
He has more energy than before, which is why he hooked up with Mona.
After hanging up the phone, Gong Ou continued to drive in the snow and parked the car by the lake.
This side is a small road, so quiet that there are no vehicles and no one passing by, which is perfect for conversation.
"Why did you say that to reporters? Why didn't you tell me in advance?" Gong Ou loosened his seat belt and turned to look at Shi Xiaonian sternly, "Do you know that you disrupted all my plans? We will announce our wedding date at today’s press conference as a surprise for you.”
surprise.
Ah.
He had already given her a big surprise.
Shi Xiaonian sat there in silence, looking down at her skirt.
"You caused a big accident for me today, and now I have to do crisis public relations. I will take you back to NE now and ask the public relations department to prepare a press release. You can memorize it and explain to the media that this is just your whim." Gong Ou said, his dark eyes staring deeply at her, "We will appear together to announce our wedding date to the public. The wedding date will be the day when the NE Holographic Era is officially released. Our public influence will reach the highest level in history."
“Do you want marriage or publicity?”
Shi Xiaonian felt incredible.
"This is called a win-win situation. We are getting married. We have influence and benefits. We have the best of all three. What's wrong with that?" Gong Ou looked at her with a solemn tone. He raised his hand and rubbed her hair, "Okay. , stop messing around, I will call the public relations department now and ask them to write a draft."
The media are not fools, and this draft must be well written.
Saying that, Gong Ou picked up his mobile phone to make a call. The call had not been connected yet. Shi Xiaonian's voice as cold as snow rang in his ears, "Gong Ou, don't you understand? There is no wedding, no wedding date, nothing." there is none left."
“…”
Gong Ou's face froze and his eyes were fixed. The voice of the public relations department staff came from the phone, and he forgot what to say.
Shi Xiaonian opened the door and got out of the car.
Gong Ou was sitting in the car, with a flash of anger in his eyes, and he reached out and wanted to smash the phone.
After a few seconds, he restrained himself, threw the phone aside, opened the door and got out of the car.
When Xiaonian was standing on the roadside to make a call, snowflakes fell on her body, making her body tremble with the cold.
Gong Ou walked up to her and looked at her with a gloomy look, "Xi Xiaonian, what on earth are you making trouble for?"
Just say break up and break up.
Shi Xiaonian raised her eyes to look at him, met his reproachful gaze, and said, "Gong Ou, I'm not young anymore. I'm past the age of quarrelsomeness."
She has been waiting for four years and hoping for four years. As long as this relationship can last, she will not break up.
"Then why did we break up?" Gong Ou stared at her, "Why don't you know how to cherish it? How many years has it taken us to get to where we are today? Now our father and mother no longer stop us from being together. As long as we get married, the twins can be by your side. , what else are you dissatisfied with?"
Shi Xiaonian found it funny and looked at him intently.
He asked her today what else she was not satisfied with.
"Gong Ou, I know you care about your reputation now, so I told the media that it was me who broke up. You don't have to worry about your reputation being damaged." Shi Xiaonian said, isn't that what he cares about.
Gong Ou's face became darker and darker, and he stared at her solemnly, "I don't agree to break up."
Hearing this, Shi Xiaonian smiled bitterly, "Fortunately, this is not a marriage, and your consent is not required to fall in love."
That's how love is, not as strong as marriage.
If he wants to cheat, break up with her, if she wants to break up, break up with her, it's that simple.
Snow fell on her brows, making her feel uncomfortable with the cold.
She is most afraid of the cold.
"Xi Xiaonian, I don't know what you are making, what do you want? As long as you can do it, I will do it." Gong Ou said, his voice was low, this was already his compromise. ,
"I want custody of the twins." Shi Xiaonian said simply.
"Just marry me."
"Impossible." Shi Xiaonian said, her eyes dry, her pupils reflected his handsome face and everything that happened last night.
She was standing in front of the hotel waiting.
She stood in the snow and waited. When her skirt was wet and she was shivering from the cold, she sat back in the car and waited. When her skirt slowly dried, he didn't come out. He didn't even come out of the hotel.
She could only imagine how crazy he had been last night.
"Why do you have to make such a stupid decision?"
Gong Ou asked, his face turned ugly.
Custody rights are right before her eyes, and she has to fight for them through difficult means. Doesn't she understand how to weigh the pros and cons
Hearing this, Shi Xiaonian stood in the snow and smiled, showing her white teeth, her eyes bent, dazzlingly beautiful.
"I'm very awake." She looked at him and said, "Miyao, I have never been so awake like now."
For the past four years, she had been living in a dream every day, dreamily waiting for him to come back.
As soon as he came back, he pulled her out of her fantasy.
It's time for her to wake up.
“…”
Gong Ou looked at her gloomily, his chest being stabbed hard by her smile.
"Go back and handle your official business." Shi Xiaonian said calmly, preparing to leave.
The moment she turned around, Gong Ou's voice sounded behind her, "The reason for the breakup."
Shi Xiaonian stopped.
"You have said so much and haven't said the reason for the breakup. You are not the kind of woman who would break up easily." Gong Ou said, his voice as gloomy as his face.
He still understands her.
Isn't he aware of the reason for the breakup
"Where were you last night?" Shi Xiaonian turned around, looked at him with dry eyes, and asked, "Where were you when I called you?" (To be continued)
