“…”
Shi Xiaonian straightened up and leaned back. When he opened his eyes again, his eyes were filled with water. "Forget it, I know it's useless to tell you this. I originally wanted to tell you today, but I don't want to tell you on the date you set." It's my choice, but I already have the answer. I'll find you after the press conference, okay?"
"Xi Xiaonian, what do you mean?"
Gong Ou spoke coldly.
She doesn't mean anything.
She just wanted their relationship to be simpler and not involve so many interests.
"Gong Ou, you can regard the marriage as a hype, but I can't." Shi Xiaonian said softly, "The answer I give you must be just because of you, not because of maximizing value."
Can he understand what she means
"Do you think I will give you a chance to choose after tomorrow?"
Gong Ou said sternly.
He was forcing her.
"I... forget it, goodbye, Gong Ou, I wish you a successful press conference."
Shi Xiaonian took the initiative to hang up the phone and put the phone aside. She lowered her eyes and looked at the steering wheel in front of her without focus, her vision becoming increasingly blurry.
Except for the one day opportunity that Mr. Y deliberately created for them to get along, she was lonely and disappointed in the rest of the days.
When people fell in love, she fell in love too, and she was so tired of it.
Shi Xiaonian glanced at the package placed on the passenger seat, reached for the steering wheel, resolutely turned the steering wheel and left alone.
More than ten hours later, Shi Xiaonian arrived in Italy.
…
Day and night turn, and it’s a new day.
The imperial castle deep in the forest is majestic and majestic. The maids got up early to clean up. Gong Kui ran around with a windmill, leaving waves of laughter like silver bells.
In the huge bedroom, Gong Ou stood in front of the full-length mirror and put on his shirt, buttoning the buttons one by one with his slender fingers.
When he pulled out the cufflinks, his eyes froze.
Feng De led a group of servants to stand outside the door, waiting respectfully. After receiving a call, Feng De's face darkened and he looked up at Gong Ou in the room, wondering whether he should speak.
Gong Ou didn't even look at him, and said coldly, "If you have anything to say, just say it."
Feng De lowered his head and said, "Miss Xi has arrived in Italy."
Feng De was also very shocked. He thought that Shi Xiaonian closed the gallery because she was ready to compromise with the young master and become a young lady who would like the young master. Unexpectedly, at this critical moment, she flew to Italy again.
“…”
Gong Ou stood in front of the mirror and pulled off a cufflink abruptly, with no expression on his handsome face.
"Master?"
Feng De looked at Gong Ou.
Gong Ou threw away the cufflinks and said indifferently, "Go get another shirt, this one is broken."
"Yes, Master."
Feng De nodded and ordered the servant on the side to go down and get the shirt.
The press conference was held as usual at the Science and Technology Museum under NE. For this first press conference after Gong Ou came back from the dead and regained his strength, technology fans cheered as usual and waited outside the science and technology museum early.
The motorcade slowly entered the Science and Technology Museum from behind.
Feng De came down first and made final inspections and discussions with relevant senior officials.
"Butler Feng, take a look. If there are no problems with this manuscript, please submit it to Mr. Palace." The senior executive on the side handed him a speech.
Feng De opened the manuscript and quickly flipped through a few pages. When he saw the last paragraph announcing the marriage, he frowned and said, "Delete this paragraph."
"What? This paragraph was added by Mr. Gong's personal instructions before."
The top brass was dumbfounded.
"Delete it and reprint the last page quickly. I'll show it to the young master." Feng De said, handing the manuscript to someone else to check the lighting and sound equipment on site.
This morning was extremely busy.
Feng De is Gong Ou's butler. The on-site director and staff all came to ask him. When he finalized the decision, Feng De was so busy that he didn't even have time to drink a glass of water.
Once you have some free time, the time for the press conference will come soon.
The on-site director asked over and over again if he could ask Gong Ou to walk on stage first. The senior management asked over and over again what Gong Ou thought after reading the speech.
Only then did Feng De realize that the young master had never gotten out of the car.
He took the manuscript and ran out without caring about the image, until he rushed out of the back door of the Science and Technology Museum. When he looked up, he saw that the Gong family's car was still parked there, with bodyguards standing around it.
It can be seen that the young master has never got out of the car.
Feng De hurriedly walked over, stretched out his hand and gently knocked on the car window a few times.
There was no response at all.
Feng De looked at the bodyguard on the side. The bodyguard signaled to him with his eyes that the young master was inside.
"Master, the press conference is about to begin. Do you want to take a look at the finalized speech?" Feng De said.
There was still no reaction inside the car.
Feng De glanced at the time anxiously, stretched out his hand to open the car door, "Master, please forgive me for being rude."
He opened the car door and saw Gong Ou sitting here in a weird posture.
Gong Ou sat in the middle, with his feet raised on the seat, his slender legs bent together, curling up into a ball like a child.
Gong Ou was dressed elegantly and looked forward without any expression on his face, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.
"Master?"
Feng De bent down and stood outside the car, calling him tentatively.
Master, what's going on
"I forced her away."
Gong Ou suddenly made a voice, his voice was low and hoarse, and no emotion could be heard.
"What?"
Feng De was stunned.
"I don't want her to do anything, I just want her to give me a clear answer. Does she need to be scared and run away?" Gong Ou turned to look at him, his eyes were dark and bottomless, and his thin lips opened and closed, "She Are you not coming back?"
Are you talking about Xi Xiaonian
Feng De looked at him blankly, "Master, I haven't contacted Miss Xi yet. I think she will come back. The twins are still here, aren't they?"
"Come back for the twins? Who am I?"
Gong Ou's eyes turned cold.
Feng Debi has been with Gong Ou for a long time as Xiao Nian. In the past, the young master would get angry when angry, but now he is indifferent. He always has only one expression. He will not laugh when he is happy, and his face will only become colder when he is angry.
After thinking about it, Feng De closed the car door, walked to the passenger seat and sat down. He looked back at Gong Ou's cold face and sighed softly, "Master, I want to ask you the truth."
"explain."
"Actually, you care about Miss Xi, right?" Feng De said. Gong Ou has now become a veritable workaholic, but he huddled in the car before the press conference. He couldn't think of any other reason besides caring about Xiao Nian.
Hearing this, Gong Ou, who was curled up in his seat, raised his eyes and looked at Feng De coldly.
Feng De immediately lowered his head, "Master, I'm talking too much."
Gong Ou looked at him coldly, his face as cold as ice. For a long time, a low and hoarse voice sounded in the closed space, "Feng De."
"Yes, Master, I'm here."
"Are you also disgusted with how I am now?" Gong Ou asked indifferently, his voice getting lower and lower.
also
Feng De shook his head, "Master, you are thinking too much. Miss Xi has never disliked you, and I certainly haven't either. Master, you..."
"I don't know how much time I have." Gong Ou interrupted him and sat there touching the buttons on his sleeves.
"Master, what do you mean by this? Are you feeling unwell?"
Feng De frowned, what do you mean by not knowing how much time is left? There should be nothing wrong with the young master's health and he is checked regularly.
Gong Ou looked at him with a heavy gaze, touched the cufflinks with his fingers over and over, and said word by word, "Feng De, in fact, I will give her whatever she wants."
“…”
Feng De looked at Gong Ou blankly, not understanding what his words meant, and seemed to be completely unable to connect them together.
Feng De suddenly discovered that the young master had hidden a lot of worries when he came back this time, hiding them so much that no one could see clearly.
"She is Xiaonian. She deserves to have everything she wants. I will give her everything she wants." Gong Ou looked at him and said, "I just want to know whether I have any value in her eyes after enduring these four years."
"Master..."
"She wants Gong Ou to be normal, okay, I'll give it to her; she wants Gong Ou to go back, okay, I'll go back." Gong Ou touched the cufflinks smooth, his voice was low and hoarse, "But I also have my own thoughts, I don't know I will go back when, then what have I been doing these four years? I can’t even get a look of approval from her.”
He stopped taking his medication.
I don't know when, but he changed back as soon as he said he wanted to. So who is he now? Just an unnecessary existence
He was so eager to force Shi Xiaonian to accept who he was now, but he forced her away.
It seems that he is really annoying now.
Feng De looked at Gong Ou with astonishment in his eyes, "Master, I didn't know you had so many things hidden in your heart."
Although he still didn't quite understand what he heard, he now understood that the young master really loved Xiao Nian, but he was just not good at expressing it.
Gong Ou looked down at his cufflinks and pressed the buttons hard with his fingers.
"You go to Italy." Gong Ou said in a low voice, "I'm not worried about her going to that place alone. You should take a plane and rush there now."
Feng De nodded, "Yes, Master."
After a pause, Feng De said again, "Master, don't worry, I will have a heart-to-heart talk with Miss Xi."
Maybe they didn't see through Gong Ou's true inner thoughts.
"No need, it's over between me and her, and it's the old me that's about to start."
Gong Ou said coldly, opened the car door and walked out.
“…”
Feng De sat in his original position and stared blankly at Gong Ou's figure. Xiao Nian obviously carried more loneliness and sadness in this relationship, but the young master's back looked so lonely.
Gong Ou walked forward and walked towards the backstage of the stage with a cold face.
A group of people gathered around and asked questions. Gong Ou had a cold face and said nothing. He only touched the cufflinks with his fingers over and over again.
In the noisy environment, everyone didn't dare to say anything when they saw Gong Ou like this.
Gong Ou looked at the stage with cold black eyes.
"President, here is a letter from Miss Xi. Do you want to read it?" The secretary held a pile of thick documents and looked at Gong Ou carefully, wondering whether he should give the letter to Gong Ou.
Gong Ou stood there in silence, motionless.
The secretary thought that he must have said the wrong thing. He couldn't help but want to pat his head in annoyance and turned around weakly. (To be continued)
