The engagement ceremony was cancelled, no one was forcing him to achieve anything, he no longer had to force a smile, everything was over.
From now on, he can live as he pleases.
That's nice, isn't it
He picked up the wine bottle and poured a glass into the cup. He raised his head and drank. The thick mist enveloped him and brushed his eyes coolly. He curled his lips and smiled and said to the mist in the sky, "Is it you?" Helping me?"
So his life that was supposed to be hell suddenly took a turn, and he didn't have to hold himself up.
“…”
In the thick fog, no one responded to him, he was the only one talking to himself.
Gong Yu poured himself another glass of wine, drank it down in one gulp, and said in a low voice, "Tomorrow, Gong Ou and Xiao Nian will also leave. Mother and I are the only ones left here."
This home is too big, too quiet, and too lonely.
not interesting.
It's really not interesting.
Gong Yu drank one glass after another. Soon, the bottles were empty, and his hair was wet with mist.
It's getting late.
Shi Xiaonian finally packed her luggage under Gong Ou's interruption, and went to Luo Qi's place to bring back a box of gold.
The housekeeper of the Gong family has always been extremely efficient, and in just half a day, Charles actually bought a whole box of gold.
When it was so heavy, Xiao Nian could hardly hold it.
"These are the people you asked to take away. I counted them. There are 68 people in total, including 15 tutors with twins, 6 of your bill collectors, and 7 maids with various skills. The rest are They are their family members, just let Gong Ou arrange the house and accommodation." In the study, Luo Qi handed the notebook to Shi Xiaonian, planning her and Gong Ou's return trip to China well.
Take away 68 people
Shi Xiaonian was shocked again by this number, took the notebook and said, "Thank you for worrying about it, mother. Anyway, I will bring the twins over as soon as I have time."
Luo Qi was very happy this time. He didn't say that he wanted to keep the twins, but agreed to let them take away his life.
These words made Luo Qi very satisfied, and Luo Qi nodded, "That's for sure. When the twins get older, they will have to change teachers."
"Yes." Shi Xiaonian nodded and said, "You have been busy preparing for our departure for the past two days. It is already late. Go to bed early."
"It's nothing, what else can I do besides busying with your affairs now, I'm very busy." Luo Qi stood up from the table, "It's too late, you should go back and get some rest early, we have to take a flight tomorrow. "
"Okay, mother."
Shi Xiaonian nodded, turned around and left, looking down at the time.
At this time, I went to make some supper for Gong Ou. Gong Ou was busy with Gong Jue's funeral and didn't eat any of the food she cooked. She ate very little and lost weight.
what to do
Add some red wine to help you sleep.
With this thought in mind, Shi Xiaonian walked out of the door and walked in the direction of the wine cellar. The fog at night was so heavy that even the light from the street lights seemed unable to penetrate the thick fog.
She walked forward slowly alone, and suddenly there was a sound of staggering footsteps in front of her. When Xiao Nian was wondering, a familiar figure came into her sight crookedly.
"elder brother?"
Shi Xiaonian looked forward in confusion and saw Gong Yu walking over, holding on to the wall. His body was wet as if he had been caught in a light rain. He lowered his head and swayed while holding on to the wall with one hand.
Before the person even got close, the pungent smell of alcohol was already approaching.
Drinking
When Shi Xiaonian walked towards him, Gong Yu raised his face to look at her. His eyes were drunk and his face was red. It looked like he was drunk.
"Brother, are you okay?"
I didn't see any servants following me.
"Xi Yu?" Gong Yu's eyes froze and he looked at her blankly. He suddenly smiled, his eyelashes trembling violently, "I know, I know you are always by my side. People do have souls."
He knew that Xi Yu was always there, hating him and protecting him.
Shi Xiaonian was startled and said, "Brother, I am Xiaonian."
"Don't leave, don't leave." Gong Yu stepped forward and grabbed Shi Xiaonian's wrist, "Come, follow me, brother, let you see something."
The smell of alcohol on Gong Yu's body made Xiao Nian unbearable. She struggled subconsciously, "Brother, I'm Xiao Nian. Don't be like this. I'm not Xi Yu."
"Shh, don't talk."
Gong Yu raised his fingers to shut her up, then held her tightly and walked forward.
"Brother, you're drunk. Go back and rest." Shi Xiaonian frowned and said. He was no match for Gong Yu and couldn't get away no matter how hard he struggled.
Gong Yu's steps staggered so much that he couldn't walk in a straight line. He held Shi Xiaonian hard and walked forward, "Come, follow me, follow me."
“…”
Shi Xiaonian was forced to move forward. She took out her mobile phone from her pocket with one hand. Before she could get through Gong Ou's call, Gong Yu suddenly shook and bumped into her. She was unsteady and the mobile phone fell from her hand. flew out.
When Xiaonian wanted to pick it up, Gong Yu forced him to hold it and move forward.
Gong Yu felt the mist and led her to a garden. He pointed in front and said excitedly, "Look, I'm not lying to you. My house has the most beautiful garden in the world."
"..." Shi Xiaonian walked in the direction he pointed, only to see flowers looming in the thick fog.
Gong Yu also noticed the flowers and was a little annoyed, "Why is it foggy? This place is very beautiful when there is no fog. There is a long flower corridor that leads to the lake."
"I know, brother."
She has been here before.
"Is it suitable for you to paint?" Gong Yu asked, looking at her and smiling, then pulled her back inside, "Come, come in with me."
“…”
Shi Xiaonian was completely forced to go inside. Gong Yu was drunk and told her about various flowers and grasses with great interest.
Shi Xiaonian has never seen Gong Yu like this.
What he kept calling was Xi Yu, her brother's name.
"This kind of flower doesn't exist in Italy. Have you ever seen it?" Gong Yu pointed at a grass and said to Xiao Nian.
“…”
Shi Xiaonian stood there in silence, watching him keep talking. He kept talking, very urgently, as if if she slowed down a little, she would disappear.
After a long time, Gong Yu let go of Shi Xiaonian's hand and stared at her, "Every time I drink, you come. I don't know how long you can stay this time. I should drink more."
"Brother, please stop being like this, let's go back."
Shi Xiaonian frowned.
"Why are you wearing a skirt again?" Gong Yu suddenly looked at the skirt on her body and laughed, "Here, you draw."
Where does she go to paint
Gong Yu broke off a long flower branch and handed it to her, pointing to the ground, "You draw it."
Shi Xiaonian was pushed by him, so she had to take the flower branch and scratch it on the dirt twice. Gong Yu was very satisfied and looked at her with doting eyes, "You have grown up, you have finally grown up, it's great .”
His voice trembled violently, and a touch of sadness passed through Shi Xiaonian's body.
"Do you really miss him?"
Shi Xiaonian asked in a low voice and raised his eyes to look at Gong Yu.
"Miss you?" Gong Yu pulled up his sleeves, all the way up, revealing deep and shallow scars, "Do you think I miss you or not?"
“…”
Shi Xiaonian looked at him in shock.
I saw that Gong Yu's arms were covered with scars, one after another, densely packed, some old and new.
Did he harm himself
Gong Yu and Gong Ou are really two brothers. It's really scary that they both behave like this.
Gong Yu stood there, looking deeply at her face. Suddenly, he slowly walked behind her. When Xiao Nian was about to turn around, he held her shoulders with his hands and spoke in a low voice. , "Don't move, I'll say a few words."
“…”
Shi Xiaonian stood there without looking back.
Mist enveloped the flower gallery. Gong Yu stood behind her, put his hands on her shoulders, and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry."
“…”
Shi Xiaonian was startled, Gong Yu was really drunk enough to mistake her for Xi Yu.
"I'm a scumbag. You were obviously waiting for me, but I caused a car accident." Gong Yu said, his voice hoarse, "I'm sorry, you are still a child. I can't think about our future. I thought Your liking is just a temporary passion."
“…”
Shi Xiaonian listened silently.
"I always ask myself, how old do you have to be before I can consider you mature? 16 years old? 18 years old? Or 25 years old?" Gong Yu said, "Actually, I can't wait any longer. Just 25 years old. I I have always thought this way, and when you are 25 years old and you have not changed your mind, I will go find you."
At the end of the sentence, Gong Yu choked up his voice.
“…”
Shi Xiaonian stood there and closed her eyes. Her brother did not wait until he was 25 years old.
"I think you are a complete adult when you are 25 years old. You can be responsible for what you do. At that time, no matter who opposes us, I can take you away without thinking too much." Gong Yu said, his voice choked. Awesome, "I really think so. I really want to find you. I'm not leaving you alone. I really never thought about it that way."
“…”
"I know why you keep that photo on your body until you die. You want to tell me that you have never changed. It's all because I think too much and I'm too cowardly." Gong Yu stood while Xiao Nian He said from behind, tears overflowing from his eyes, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Xi Yu, I'm sorry, it was my fault, everything is my fault."
Hearing these words, Shi Xiaonian was extremely sad, and her eyes were filled with moisture.
"Why don't you give me a little more time? Even if I'm cowardly, even if I don't dare to take a step forward, I've calculated the time. When you are 25 years old, I can go to you." Gong Yu She said with tears, the hand on her shoulder was trembling, "It's only less than two years. I've been watching you secretly for so many years, and it's only two years before you fall."
It was just a little bit of time before he could convince himself to go find him.
It's just a little bit short.
Why didn't God give him this chance
Shi Xiaonian opened her eyes, her eyes were red, and said, "Brother, life is the most regrettable thing. Since it has passed, let him pass, and don't worry about it anymore." (To be continued)
