"Gong Ou is still your husband, but if you are willing to believe me, he is not willing."
Luo Lie said coldly.
Hearing this, Shi Xiaonian felt inexplicably sad and briefly treated Luo Lie's wound, "But, it was one o'clock in the morning, why were you dressed like this?"
No one would sleep dressed like this.
"I didn't mean to dress like this, but..." Luo Lie paused here and didn't say any more.
"But what?"
Shi Xiaonian was puzzled, and Gong Yu was naturally even more confused when he saw Luo Lie's neatly dressed, so he decided that Luo Lie was the one who betrayed them.
Luo Lie sat there in silence for a long time before saying, "It's just that I didn't sleep."
When Shi Xiaonian heard this, her whole body was shaken. She looked at him in astonishment and suddenly understood, "It was because you had a quarrel during the day, so..."
So Luo Lie didn't sleep all night, instead of dressing like that and preparing to escape.
"Ha." Luo Lie sneered, with a self-deprecating tone, "They say we are friends, but in fact, in his eyes, I am worse than a stranger."
Whenever something goes wrong, Gong Yu blames him, and whenever something goes wrong, Gong Yu doubts him.
Everything is his fault, everything is his sin.
"Dr. Luo, brother..."
When Xiao Nian wanted to say something, Luo Lie interrupted her, "No need to say it, it doesn't matter. I will take the blame, but there is no use in threatening me now."
Yes, the killer is still out there.
Shi Xiaonian frowned, "Who reported the letter to the Lancaster family?"
"My servants and bodyguards disappeared overnight. Naturally, someone among them tipped off the information, or maybe all of them tipped off the information." Luo Lie sneered, "You know, the reward for reporting your information is huge. ."
I see.
Shi Xiaonian bit her lip, looked at the rope on Luo Lie's hand, and said, "Let me untie it for you."
"Don't move!"
Luo Lie's eyes suddenly turned cold.
"What's wrong?" Shi Xiaonian retracted his hand.
"He tied it for me. I don't need anyone to untie it for me." Luo Lie said coldly, with a hint of stubbornness in his eyes.
This is really completely annoying.
Luo Lie was misunderstood by Gong Yu again and again, and it would be uncomfortable for anyone else.
"Doctor Luo, just explain the misunderstanding clearly." Shi Xiaonian could only say this.
"Mrs. Gong, this is a matter between me and him. You don't need to mediate." Luo Lie said coldly, his tone was as stubborn as a child. After a while, his eyes softened slightly, "Mrs. Gong, please let Mr. Gong Be prepared, my servants betrayed me, Lancaster will not forgive me, let alone be threatened. Therefore, they will definitely attack when they are ready, and will not care about my life or death. "
"Okay, I'll go now."
Shi Xiaonian was startled, and when she stood up and was about to leave, she heard a "bang bang" gunshot from outside. The moment the gunshot rang out, Gong Ou ran back quickly, pulling her back and walking back.
"They're taking action. You go in first to avoid it, and I'll push him out!"
Gong Yu said, lifting Luo Lie up from the sofa, untying the rope around his knees, and pulling him away.
When Xiao Nian saw this, he was busy and said, "Brother, don't be like this. You misunderstood Dr. Luo. He didn't tell the truth."
"What did he tell you? Do you believe him?"
Gong Yu said, pushing Luo Lie out.
"Brother, if you push him out like this, you will only kill him." Gunshots were heard outside, and Shi Xiaonian stepped in front of Gong Yu without thinking, preventing him from leaving.
"Gong Ou, take care of your woman!" Gong Yu looked at Shi Xiaonian, "Xiao Nian, I know you are soft-hearted, but now is not the time to be soft-hearted!"
"elder brother!"
Shi Xiaonian frowned, and what he was about to say was interrupted by Luo Lie. He stood there with his hands tied behind his back and smiled contemptuously.
"why are you laughing?"
Gong Ou stood aside, staring at Luo Lie with his dark eyes, a trace of inquiry in his eyes.
"Young Master Gong is unparalleled in his wisdom. I admire him deeply. Let's go." Luo Lie said in a cold voice. He walked towards the door without needing Gong Yu to push him. When he passed by Shi Xiaonian, he lowered his voice. , "There is a basement under the desk in my room. If you believe me, just take them there to hide."
An hour or two can pass quickly.
Shi Xiaonian looked at him blankly.
Gong Yu followed Luo Lie and followed him to the closed door. Gong Yu put his hand on the door. Now he only needed to open the door a little and push Luo Lie out.
They can deal with those killers.
Luo Lie stood there without any resistance, looking down at Gong Yu's hand slowly reaching for the door handle. The corners of his lips curved, and the curve became deeper and deeper.
Shi Xiaonian stood there, seeing Gong Yu about to open the door, she couldn't help shouting, "Brother, if you open the door now, it will only cause Dr. Luo to be shot by the killer outside!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Gong Yu's movements froze for a second and he said coldly, "I told you, don't believe him."
Luo Lie has always had an eccentric temperament, and it is not surprising that he would do anything outrageous.
As he said that, Gong Yu's hand held the door handle. Gong Ou wanted to pull Shi Xiaonian away. Shi Xiaonian became anxious, "Even if he lied to me, what if, what if Dr. Luo is killed when you open the door?" What’s up?”
Killers are inhumane.
Hearing this, Gong Yu couldn't help but look at Luo Lie. The smile on Luo Lie's face was as sarcastic as it was dazzling. He turned his eyes and looked at Gong Ou and Shi Xiaonian.
These are his younger brother, sister-in-law, and his unborn nephew or niece. They are the future of the Gong family. Nothing should happen to them.
Luo Lie is now their only trump card that can delay time.
Can't use it.
Gong Yu thought, a chill flashed across his eyes, and he reached out to open the door. Shi Xiaonian's anxious voice sounded behind him, "Doctor Luo likes you! How could he harm you!"
Luo Lie's body froze.
Gong Yu's figure also froze.
The atmosphere suddenly became very strange. The atmosphere in the hall was as quiet as death. There were intermittent gunshots outside, making the night seem particularly long.
"What did you say?"
Gong Yu turned his head and looked at Shi Xiaonian in disbelief.
Shi Xiaonian blurted out out of desperation. Now seeing Luo Lie's face turned pale, she was immediately annoyed that she was talking too much. She said, "I mean, Dr. Luo regards you as such a good friend, how could he harm you..." us."
“…”
Gong Ou stood beside Shi Xiaonian with a cold face, not interested in this kind of thing at all.
Gong Yu stood stiffly at the door, looking at Luo Lie in disbelief. Luo Lie's face was as white as snow, without any blood, and there was arrogance in his eyes.
His hand slipped from the door handle and he took three steps back.
Luo Lie stood there, watching Qian Gongyu take three steps back from the corner of his eye. His eyes were filled with despair and lifelessness.
The matter is resolved.
But Shi Xiaonian didn't know whether to be happy or to hate herself for being too talkative. She leaned on Gong Ou helplessly, blaming herself.
…
Gong Yu did not push Luo Lie out again.
They escaped in Luo Lie's basement and listened to the killers outside searching back and forth. There was a lot of noise, but no one noticed that there was a basement in Luo Lie's house.
The people from the Gong family came very quickly, arriving within an hour. They captured the killer and took control of the entire Luo residence.
Shi Xiaonian, Gong Ou and the other four people stayed in the basement. The light in the basement was not bright and illuminated everyone weakly.
Shi Xiaonian was held in Gong Ou's arms. Luo Lie and Gong Yu were standing in the opposite corners. They didn't say a word and had complicated expressions.
"It's not your problem!"
Gong Ou stared at Shi Xiaonian and saw at a glance what she was blaming herself for.
Shi Xiaonian snuggled into his arms without saying anything. The atmosphere in the basement was frozen to an extreme. Luo Lie's face looked very ugly, like a patient.
Gong Yu, on the other hand, lowered his eyes and stood silently, with almost no expression on his face.
"Bang bang bang."
There was a tapping sound overhead.
"Master, Xiao Nian, it's us, we can come out."
It was Feng De's voice.
Reinforcements have arrived, and the danger of this night has passed, but...
Shi Xiaonian couldn't help but look at Luo Lie and Gong Yu, wondering how they were going to change their relationship.
"Let's go."
When Gong Ou hugged Shi Xiaonian, he stood up, walked up the stone stairs, opened the secret compartment, and Feng De stood there with a bunch of bodyguards.
Feng De was dressed as a butler, with short snow-white hair and a good complexion. There was an antique pocket watch hanging on his chest. When he stretched out his hand to pull it, Xiao Nian came up.
Seeing that they were safe and sound, Feng De breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's good that you're all right."
"I'm worrying you, foster father."
Shi Xiaonian stepped forward and hugged Yongfeng De, comforting him.
"Go and take a rest." Feng De said, turning his eyes and stunned, "This is..."
When Shi Xiaonian heard the sound and looked over, she saw Gong Yu and Luo Lie coming up from the basement one after another. Luo Lie's hands were still tied behind his back, and no one was untying them for him.
"Hurry and help Dr. Luo untie the rope."
Shi Xiaonian said quickly that the truth was now known and there was nothing to doubt. If Luo Lie betrayed them, the killers would definitely find the basement and massacre them.
"good."
Feng De immediately walked towards Luo Lie. There was a coldness on Luo Lie's pale face. He stepped aside and said coldly, "No need."
He would not let anyone untie this knot.
Feng De was stunned there, not knowing what was going on, and the atmosphere was a bit strange.
Shi Xiaonian couldn't help but look at Gong Yu. Gong Yu stood with a sullen face, and the emotions in his eyes were hard to decipher. After a long time, Gong Yu walked towards Luo Lie, stood in front of him, and said word by word, " It's my fault, why don't you just wait for me to do this?"
Shi Xiaonian clearly saw Luo Lie's eyelashes trembling violently.
Gong Yu walked behind Luo Lie and lowered his head to untie the rope for him. There were deep rope marks on Luo Lie's wrist.
During the whole process, Luo Lie almost stopped breathing, leaving only his eyelashes trembling.
Shi Xiaonian felt very uncomfortable.
"Snapped."
The rope fell to the ground.
Luo Lie stood there motionless, his lips moved, and he hesitated for a long time. He slowly turned his head to look at Gong Yu. Before he could speak, Gong Yu had already turned around and left. (To be continued)
