She smiled and said, "Are you still busy? It's very late. Go to bed early."
"Just take care of the two children." Gong Ou stood there and said, his tone mature, but with a hint of gloom.
With that said, Gong Ou closed the door heavily and returned to the table to start working.
Shi Xiaonian looked helplessly at the closed door. She handed the tray to Gong Kui's hand, "Take it and eat it with Holy. Don't take it from your brother, you know? One piece for each person."
After getting along with the twins for a long time, Shi Xiaonian discovered that although Gong Yao looked cold, he doted on his younger sister. Sometimes it was his favorite food. When Gong Kui asked for it, he said he didn't like it and gave it to his younger sister. .
"I know, can I have two pieces?"
Gong Kui asked, staring at the three cakes on the tray, one for Holy and two for her, great.
Shi Xiaonian took out the small plate containing the matcha cake from the tray and said, "This piece belongs to Dad."
"But I want to eat two pieces."
"One piece is enough, otherwise I won't cook it for you next time."
"All right."
Gong Kui left holding the tray with some disappointment.
Shi Xiaonian carefully held the small plate, walked to the study, reached out and knocked on the door, "Mong Ou, are you busy? Can I come in?"
"Come in."
Gong Ou's cold voice sounded.
Shi Xiaonian opened the door and went in. Gong Ou was busy at the desk. She walked over and put the matcha cake on his table without disturbing him. She turned and left.
The door was closed and the sound was almost silent.
Gong Ou raised his face and glanced at the closed door, then looked at the cake on the table. His black eyes were cold. Didn't he only make food for the two children
Cake, at what age does he still eat this kind of thing
Gong Ou withdrew his eyes and continued to work. His fingers moved around on the keyboard, but his hand speed slowed down little by little, and his slender fingers moved to the side little by little.
Gong Ou pulled the small plate, put the small fork aside, put the matcha cake directly to her lips and took a bite.
The aroma of matcha is completely dissolved into the cake. It is not greasy and not too sweet, but it has a very special flavor that attracts people.
Well done.
It is not suitable to eat too much at night, and you have to be a moderate person.
A minute later, there was only an empty small plate left on the desk. Gong Ou wiped his lips gracefully with a tissue, and the discomfort in his chest instantly dissipated.
It's just eating a piece of cake, it doesn't mean anything.
…
Shi Xiaonian was with Gong Kui and Gong Yao, watching them eat the cake they made, with a satisfied smile on their face, "Is it delicious?"
"It's delicious." Gong Kui nodded fiercely and quickly finished the cake, then stared at the cake in Gong Yao's hand.
Shi Xiaonian sat on the carpet in front of the bed. Seeing this, he quickly said to Gong Kui, "Okay, you go brush your teeth and get ready for bed."
"Alright alright."
Gong Kui stuck out her tongue at her, turned and walked towards the bathroom.
When Shi Xiaonian stood up and went to accompany Gong Kui, Gong Yao, who was sitting next to her, suddenly looked at her, his eyes dark, and asked expressionlessly, "You and he are not fighting for custody anymore?"
"No more fighting."
Shi Xiaonian smiled in relief.
She has completely figured it out and will no longer look for trouble. She will take good care of Gong Ou and this family.
Gong Yao put the cake aside, stood up from the carpet, wearing a pair of gray socks, looked at Shi Xiaonian and said word by word, "Don't worry, I will take care of you when I grow up."
Shi Xiaonian was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that Gong Yao had advised her before that she should marry into the Gong family no matter what, and wait until he grew up to take care of her.
He thought it was because she listened to him that she compromised.
Shi Xiaonian sat back again and stared at his cold little face, "I didn't come back here because of your words, it was because I figured out something. I love Gong Ou and I love you, and I don't want to be separated from you. "
“…”
Gong Yao looked at her, with a trace of doubt on his mature face.
Shi Xiaonian reached out and patted his small shoulder, and wanted to stand up. After thinking about it, she sat back down, looked at him and said, "Holy, actually there is a question I have always wanted to ask you."
"what is the problem?"
Gong Yao stood there and asked.
"At that time, I was preparing to file a custody case and asked you if you wanted to live with me, but you didn't answer my question directly." Shi Xiaonian looked at him and said, "Did you have a definite answer in your mind at that time?"
“…”
Gong Yao looked at her silently, his pink lips pursed, making no sound.
Seeing this, Shi Xiaonian smiled awkwardly, "It's okay, I just suddenly remembered and asked. In short, you don't need to choose now."
"Um."
Gong Yao nodded, but after all, he still didn't tell her what he would choose.
Shi Xiaonian felt that she was really asking too much. What Gong Yao chose was actually natural. He was a young nobleman who was very comfortable with the rules of the Gong family.
But she really wanted to know her place in Gong Yao's heart.
Shi Xiaonian stood up, walked to the bathroom, and then shouted with a headache, "Xiao Kui, are you brushing your teeth or taking a shower?"
"Hey hey hey."
Gong Kui was soaked, holding a toothbrush and smiling ashamedly at her.
Shi Xiaonian tried again, telling the twins stories and putting them to sleep.
This children's room is very large. It must have been specially organized by Feng De. It is beautifully and cleanly decorated, giving people the illusion of being in a fairy tale.
On the two beds side by side, the twins were already asleep.
The child fell asleep, but Shi Xiaonian was still not sleepy at all. This was the first time she spent the night in the Imperial Castle in four years.
Shi Xiaonian tucked the two children into bed, then turned off the headlights, closed the door and walked out. As soon as she went out, she looked at everything in front of her and walked slowly in the huge castle.
She walked along the wall, running her fingers along the wall.
Back here again.
One step, two steps, three steps.
Shi Xiaonian looked up and saw an oil painting hanging on the wall. The painting was hung there a few years ago and is still in the same position.
Shi Xiaonian stood in front of the painting, quietly admiring the painting.
Painting is always the most beautiful, it stops all time and memories, and preserves the best moment in the most beautiful way.
"Xiao Nian."
A kind and gentle voice came.
Shi Xiaonian turned her head and saw Feng De standing not far away with a bottle of red wine in her hand. She couldn't help but smile.
The fountain pool in front of the castle is flashing with lights and gentle music is playing. The transparent water splashes in gorgeous arcs with the music, which is so beautiful.
Shi Xiaonian and Feng De were sitting in front of the fountain with their backs to the castle.
"Congratulations, the Xi family's property is back, and the relationship with the young master has been restored. This is what I want to see the most." Feng De said, holding the wine glass in his hand and clinking it gently with her.
"Thank you, foster father." Shi Xiaonian looked at him, "Father, I must have worried you a lot over the years, right?"
Shi Xiaonian felt more or less sorry for Feng De. In the past four years, she had never cared about her health in order to find Gong Ou. Once she fell tired, she could only rely on Feng De to take care of her.
Hearing this, Feng De chuckled lightly, and the wrinkles in his eye sockets became deeper. He looked at the night in front of him and said, "I am alone, with no children and no companions. I don't know why, but I feel special since I met you, Xiao Nian." Being close, I think, is the fate between us. God allows me to get a good daughter."
"I'm not that good." Shi Xiaonian took a sip of the red wine in the glass, looked at Feng De and said, "Look, I even made my own marriage a mess."
She is really not a capable person, let alone a good person.
"Isn't the dust settled soon?" Feng De said with a smile, "I am starting to prepare for your marriage, and I have to inform the British side."
Listening to Feng De's words, Shi Xiaonian's face showed a faint blush, and she looked at him with bright eyes, "Father, am I really going to get married this time?"
They had been tied together for several years, and the children were already so old before she and Gong Ou got together.
"Of course, you will be happy forever."
Feng De said with a smile, picked up the wine bottle and poured some more red wine into her glass.
Hearing this, Shi Xiaonian smiled even more happily, with stars in her eyes. She looked at Feng De, "Father, you know, I seem to understand more and more what kind of person Gong Ou is now. .”
"Really?" Feng De followed her and said, looking at her, the kind eyes in his eyes became gentler, "Okay, okay, go back to sleep."
"Then adoptive father, please go to sleep quickly." Shi Xiaonian said, toasted with him and drank the red wine in the glass.
Feng De sat there and said, "No, the young master will work late every night, and I have to prepare supper for him."
Work late.
"That workaholic is real." Shi Xiaonian said helplessly, and said to Feng De, "Father, please go to bed. I'll make some midnight snacks for Gong Ou."
"Oh well."
Feng De smiled and nodded.
When Xiao Nian turned around and left, Feng De was still sitting in front of the fountain, holding a glass of red wine and shaking it gently. Looking at the swaying arc of the red wine, there was a hint of depth in his eyes.
Hey, you are so old and you still want to drink this together.
Who let him overhear that they were all together, one in the study and the other sleeping in the children's room? The young master is now indifferent and self-possessed. Xiao Nian seems to be persistent, but he is too shameless about some things, so he is the only one to do anything. .
However, the ingredients were too light, and he didn't know if it would be useful. He couldn't bear to give Xiao Nian a heavy portion, so that was it, it couldn't harm the body.
…
Shi Xiaonian was busy in the kitchen, making supper for her man in a familiar place and familiar environment. It felt good.
She made two soups and two dishes, and carefully carried the tray to the study.
Standing at the door, Shi Xiaonian couldn't move, so she raised her foot to knock on the door. The door was suddenly opened from the inside. Gong Ou stood at the door, with a bit of annoyance on his handsome face, and his eyes fell on her raised hand. on the legs.
"Are you going to break down my door?"
Gong Ou said coldly.
"No." Shi Xiaonian was a little embarrassed, "Well, the kitchen has prepared supper, I will help bring it over."
She didn't say that she cooked it, and Gong Ou would start to pick on her cooking now. (To be continued)
