Charles led Shi Xiaonian inside. The atmosphere of the Butler School was unique. Everyone seemed to have the word "etiquette" written on them.
Along the way, Shi Xiaonian couldn't remember how many times he bowed his head and bent his waist to strangers.
She was increasingly able to understand what Luo Qi meant by nurturing. Indeed, the longer she stayed in the Gong family, the stronger the aura she would pick up on her body. There was no need for special education. The environment had a great impact on people. .
"Miss Xi, this is it."
Charles led Shi Xiaonian to a small independent apartment.
"Is this the adoptive father's dormitory?" Shi Xiaonian was a little surprised. It was really luxurious. She said, "Then I'll go in and you guys wait outside."
"Miss Xi, this isn't appropriate."
"He is my adoptive father, there is nothing wrong with that."
With that said, Shi Xiaonian took the flowers from Charles' arms and stepped forward to press the doorbell.
After a few minutes, the door was opened from the inside, and Feng De stood at the door, wearing a shirt and vest, and still wearing a pocket watch on his chest.
"Father."
Shi Xiaonian smiled and greeted him.
"Xiao Nian?"
When Feng De saw her, a trace of panic flashed across his face, but he quickly regained his composure and smiled, "Xiao Nian, why are you here? What's wrong with your face?"
He saw the gauze on her face.
"It fell, it's nothing." Shi Xiaonian handed him the bouquet, "Let me see you."
With that said, Shi Xiaonian walked inside and looked around. Although this apartment was small, it was particularly exquisite and the decoration was gorgeous. She couldn't help but say, "It's the same school, but the difference is huge."
I remember when she was in school, the dormitory was a small room with several girls, so there was no apartment.
"This is a school with money to invest in. It trains butlers who specialize in serving the upper class. The environment will naturally be better." Feng De said with a smile, putting the flowers aside, "Look, you came here suddenly, I haven't cleaned up yet." Okay, why don’t we go out to eat.”
"No need, I brought some dishes here. I was afraid that you wouldn't eat well enough here, so I planned to save them for you, but now it seems that I was worrying too much."
The environment of this school is not even the slightest bit better than what she used to have.
With that said, Shi Xiaonian walked upstairs, visited Fengde's dormitory, and entered a sunny room. He saw a laptop and a pile of books on the desk.
It turns out that my adoptive father was studying.
Shi Xiaonian walked over and saw a map. Suddenly, Feng De walked out from behind her and closed the computer. Shi Xiaonian looked at him and noticed a hint of discomfort in his eyes, "Father, are you okay?" Bar?"
"What can I do?" Feng De said, "Come on, sit down first and I'll get you some tea."
"good."
Shi Xiaonian was a little suspicious, but didn't think much about it. She quietly found a chair to sit down and talked to Feng De about what happened in the Gong family.
"So, the young master's condition is getting better and better." Feng De came over with a teacup and handed her a cup.
"Yes." Shi Xiaonian smiled and nodded, "I made him suffer so much, and now I can finally make him better and better."
Feng De sat down opposite her, basking in the sunshine coming in through the window, looking at her and saying, "But you also sacrificed a lot."
Shi Xiaonian smiled.
"From the beginning, the young master has said that you are a person who yearns for freedom. But now, you have sacrificed the gallery for the young master, and you have to sacrifice your freedom to stay in the Gong family. You don't like that at all, do you?" Feng De understands it very well. Xiao Nian.
If given a choice, she would rather guard a gallery, that's all.
Shi Xiaonian smiled, "When two people are together, don't they have to sacrifice for each other? Gong Ou has sacrificed too much for me, and what I have done is nothing."
Compared with what Gong Ou did for her, what she did was simply not worth mentioning. At least, she didn't lose herself because of Gong Ou and became distorted, wandering between the so-called normal people and paranoia.
Listening to these words, Feng De could only sigh helplessly.
After staying in Fengde's dormitory for a while, Shi Xiaonian was about to leave and put the dishes he brought in the refrigerator one by one.
"Father, I have put the vegetables in the refrigerator for you. If you can't eat the quick-frozen ones, don't take them out until there are no fresh ingredients."
Shi Xiaonian said while putting the ingredients into the refrigerator.
"Okay. Don't give it away anymore. I can buy everything here." Feng De said standing aside, clenching his fingers.
"Anyway, I'm in the UK too, so I'll come and see you when I have time."
When Xiaonian said that, he closed the refrigerator door, and there was a little "dong dong" sound in his ears, like the sound of something hitting the wall.
What a strange sound.
"what sound?"
Shi Xiaonian looked at Feng De doubtfully.
Feng De stood there calmly, with a confused look on his face, "What is that sound? Why didn't I hear it?"
Did she hear it wrong
Shi Xiaonian was a little confused, and it seemed like it was gone again. Maybe there was something wrong with her ears. Thinking about this, Shi Xiaonian said goodbye to Feng De, turned around and left.
Before I took two steps, the "dong dong dong" sound sounded again, this time louder than before.
Shi Xiaonian looked at Feng De, and this time, she saw tension on Feng De's face.
"Xiao Nian, I'll take you out."
Feng De said and pulled her away.
Shi Xiaonian quickly pushed his hand away and ran towards the source of the sound. She ran to a door and pushed it open. It was locked and could not be pushed open.
"Xiao Nian, what are you doing?"
Feng De came over and held her.
"Open the door, foster father." She was sure that the voice came from here.
"This is a utility room."
"Open the door, adoptive father!" Shi Xiaonian's tone became extremely serious, staring at Feng De, "Please open the door, or I will tell Gong Ou that you have done something inappropriate again."
Hearing this, Feng De knew that he could no longer hide it. He looked at her with a tired face and said, "Xiao Nian, don't be too surprised when I see you later."
“…”
When Shi Xiaonian heard this, he felt uneasy. He looked at Feng De and bit his lip.
Feng De took out the key and went to the door to open it.
The door slowly opened in front of Shi Xiaonian's eyes, and then Shi Xiaonian saw a long-lost person: Mona.
Mona was tied to a chair, her hair was messy, and her mouth was covered with tape. At this moment, she was sitting on the chair and leaning against the wall, banging her head against the wall.
She must have heard a noise outside, and Mona used this to call for help.
When she saw Shi Xiaonian, Mona's eyes were filled with astonishment.
“…”
Shi Xiaonian looked at Mona in shock and didn't come back to her senses for a long time.
Feng De tied up Mona.
She turned to look at Feng De, who stood there with a haggard and tired look on his face and said in disbelief, "Father, do you want to die? Why are you so ignorant of what you do now?"
kidnapping.
The one who tied up was the eldest lady of Lancaster. Is he crazy
The accusation that Shi Xiaonian blurted out made Feng De's face appear embarrassed.
Feng De smiled and said bitterly, "I am a housekeeper, and I have always been accustomed to obeying the master's orders. Now the young master has become less like a young master. It is because of this woman that I don't get orders, so I only act according to my own ideas. "
"Father, why don't you discuss this with me first?"
Shi Xiaonian was anxious and angry. She only knew that Feng De was keeping an eye on Mona's whereabouts, but she didn't expect that he would kidnap Mona directly.
What kind of family is Lancaster? Without the protection of Gong Ou and the Gong family, Feng De will be exposed soon. Who knows what will happen then.
"I don't want to involve you."
Feng De said standing at the door.
"It's no use talking about it now, tell me, what do you want to do?" Shi Xiaonian asked.
After thinking about it, Feng De stepped forward and tore off the tape on Mona's mouth. Mona was a young lady from a big family. She didn't change her color when she encountered such a storm, but she just described it as a bit unbearable.
Mona looked at Shi Xiaonian and said calmly, "This housekeeper of yours is crazy. He tried to kill me. Lancaster will not let him go."
They should know how powerful Lancaster is.
“…”
Shi Xiaonian stood there and looked at Mona, the hatred in her heart surged up again, almost engulfing her.
But now is not the time for hatred.
Mona was sitting on a chair and was tied tightly. Her body was already numb. Seeing that Xiao Nian was silent, Mona said again, "I heard your conversation. It seems that neither Gong Ou nor the Gong family knew about this kidnapping." , It’s just Feng De’s own decision. If you let me go, I will pretend that nothing happened.”
"impossible."
Before Shi Xiaonian said anything, Feng De said decisively.
"Father!"
Shi Xiaonian frowned and looked at Feng De.
Feng De smiled at her, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes relaxed, "Xiao Nian, I told you that the young master has a great kindness to me. If it weren't for him, Feng De would not be where he is today. For the young master, I would do anything. I don’t care if I can do it.”
"But you comforted me when I told you."
Shi Xiaonian said that she thought Feng De was stable and mature and could not do such impulsive things.
"Yes, you hate this woman, how could I not hate you? I don't want you to do anything stupid." Feng De said, sighing, but she didn't expect to be discovered by her.
When Xiaonian heard this, she felt uncomfortable in her heart.
He was afraid that she would do something stupid out of hatred, but he would be the one to do it.
"Xiao Nian, I told you that you can't make her completely despair with those videos." Feng De slowly walked to Mona and looked down at her, "There is only death. When people face death, Then you will be completely desperate.”
"You want to kill me?" Mona looked at Feng De coldly, "Do you dare? I am the eldest lady of Lancaster!"
"What dare I not do?" Feng De smiled gently, "I'm already this age. Wouldn't it be a good deal to trade my life for that of a noble lady?"
"you… "
Mona stared at him speechless.
Shi Xiaonian stood aside and looked at Feng De blankly, and stepped forward to pull him. Feng De had a knife in his hand at some point, and the blade touched Mona's face.
Mona's expression suddenly changed, and she glared at Shi Xiaonian, "Xi Xiaonian, don't you two have a deep relationship? Let me tell you, if I am really dead, he will never survive more than a week, I can guarantee it." ( To be continued)
