"yes."
The bodyguard responded.
With the help of Shi Xiaonian, Mu Qianchu's cryptic clues were found one after another. When she found one, she watched Gong Ou burn it.
But she did nothing, no stopping or admonishing, only condoning.
When she found the gift from the Eleventh House under the glazed tiles on the roof of the old house, Shi Xiaonian's emotions had reached a peak. It was not guilt, nor sadness, reminiscence, or indifference. It was an indescribable complex emotion. It filled her whole being.
She kept silently watching Gong Ou burn the gifts, and kept thinking of the past with Mu Qianchu, and the purest happiness at that time.
The eleventh gift Mu Qianchu gave her was a medical record report, a report on his own preparations for craniotomy, with a thick layer of letter paper placed next to it.
After thinking about it for a long time, I decided to give this medical record to you as a gift from the 11th house. Over the years, every time I couldn’t confirm the location, I had to wait for my mother to take it with me when she occasionally came to see me secretly, like doing Like a thief, it took me several years to get just a dozen gifts. But there is no need for it in the future. When I regain my sight, I can hide the last gift by myself; when I regain my sight, I will accompany you to see the snow.
Mu Qianchu wrote a lot of content in this letter. She could almost imagine how a blind man struggled to hold the paper with one hand and the pen with the other hand to carefully write the words he knew how to write.
Medical Record Report.
At that time, they were the happiest when they knew that Mu Qianchu's eyesight could be restored. They thought everything would get better, but an operation changed everything.
Mu Qianchu and Shi Xiaonian eventually became strangers, and then came her six-year entanglement, and then her family was destroyed.
Shi Xiaonian was sitting at the door. Outside, Gong Ou was burning the medical record report. Looking at the burning flame, Shi Xiaonian covered her lips and her eyes gradually became moist.
Gong Ou raised his eyes to look at her, his eyes were particularly sinister through the firelight, which made people shudder.
Shi Xiaonian couldn't help lowering her eyes to hide her emotions. Gong Ou walked to her step by step, "What's written in the letter?"
Shi Xiaonian handed a thick stack of letter paper to Gong Ou, looked at his uncertain face, and said softly, "Gong Ou, can we go back now?"
"The last gift has not yet been found."
Gong Ou said coldly.
"There can be no last gift." Shi Xiaonian said, her voice a little stiff, "Qianchu had an operation after this gift was given. After the operation, he lost his memory, so there is no twelfth gift. "
So far, there are only eleven gifts.
Gong Ou looked at her with a deep gaze that made it difficult to figure out what he was thinking. He turned over the letter paper in his hand one by one, his face gloomy and unclear.
"It's really gone. He didn't even leave any clues, right?"
Otherwise, Mu Qianchu, this serial gift, would definitely leave a riddle for her to guess, but medical records are medical records, without any riddles.
"The clue is not in the medical records, but in the letter." Gong Ou looked down at her and asked word by word, "Looking at the snow, where will you go to see the snow?"
A flash of light flashed in Shi Xiaonian's mind, and she remembered the scene of pulling Mu Qianchu up from the snow.
"It seems you have thought of it."
Gong Ou's voice was cold.
Shi Xiaonian stood up and stood in front of Gong Ou, staring deeply at him, "Gong Ou, why don't we stop looking for him and just go back?"
Eleven copies have been found. It's time for him to vent, right
"Not good." Gong Ou said paranoidly, "Where can I watch the snow?"
“…”
Shi Xiaonian looked at him with a pale face. He must burn everything to be satisfied, right
"Where?"
Gong Ou increased his tone.
"Come with me."
Under Gong Ou's strong eyes, Shi Xiaonian finally gave up and walked out. Gong Ou stopped her, "Are you tired? Maybe... you can look for her tomorrow."
After all, you are still looking for it, right
Anyway, he's not in a hurry to return to City S, is he
Shi Xiaonian shook his head and couldn't even squeeze out a forced smile. "I'm not tired. Let's go. It's a big place over there. It's probably hard to find."
After saying that, Shi Xiaonian walked forward, staggering and almost falling. Gong Ou hugged her from behind, picked her up without any explanation and walked out.
Shi Xiaonian looked at him blankly, "I'm very heavy now."
"I can hug you even if you are a pig."
Gong Ou looked at her with an arrogant look.
“…”
Shi Xiaonian leaned helplessly in his arms, letting Gong Ou hold her and walk forward. It was late at night, but Gong Ou's chest was warm. She leaned on his shoulder and didn't feel any cold at all. meaning.
She stared at his face at close range, with sharp edges, deep outlines, and an unsmiling face. She couldn't guess what Gong Ou was thinking.
This feeling is really tiring.
When Xiaonian thought to herself, after walking for a long time, she said, "We're here."
It was an open space behind the community, with street lights shining on everyone. The bodyguards took the guys and quickly spread out, preparing for a big fight. Then they were dumbfounded when they saw that the ground was a concrete floor, and they looked at each other.
Shi Xiaonian looked at this place and said, "There was no concrete here before. When it snowed, there would be very thick snow here, which was very muddy and difficult to walk on. If you were not careful, you would fall into the snow pit." "
"Using snow as a romantic memory, do you think it will be a TV series?"
Gong Ou snorted angrily and stared at Xiao Nian wishing he could make a hole in her body.
"..." Shi Xiaonian lowered his eyes, "Mong Ou, I'll go back to the old house to pack my things first, and you can go look for it. It's only such a big place anyway."
She really didn't want to remember the past anymore. She was so tired, so tired.
When Xiaonian turned around to go back, a voice suddenly came from behind, "Mr. Gong, look."
Shi Xiaonian turned her head subconsciously and saw two bodyguards standing in front of a large tree with a thick trunk. About one and a half meters high, it was hollowed out, revealing a tree hole.
Gong Ou strode over and traced the edge of the dug tree hole with his slender fingers, his eyes cold.
"Mr. Gong, the incisions are old and new. Someone must have dug them recently."
The bodyguard analyzed.
“…”
Gong Ou looked at it coldly, and suddenly turned his head to look at Shi Xiaonian. Shi Xiaonian stood there, looking at the tree hole with dull eyes. The tree hole was almost the same size as a tin box of chocolate.
However, the box is not inside now.
That can only explain one point.
Gong Ou walked towards her, staring at her deeply with his black eyes, slightly opening his thin lips, and said word by word, "The person named Mu is back."
It seemed that the emails I sent had an effect, and I finally came back to protect the gift.
After Gong Ou finished speaking, Xiao Nian didn't even look at Xiao Nian's reaction. He rubbed her shoulder and left. The moment he rubbed her shoulders, Gong Ou's face turned extremely pale.
Shi Xiaonian stood there alone, looking at the tree hole, speechless.
Why come back.
If you saw the burning video posted by Gong Ou, you also saw the warning she issued. Why did Mu Qianchu come back? Why didn't he leave...
When Xiaonian closed her eyes, she heard Gong Ou's cold voice behind her, "I won't leave until I find Mu Qianchu."
"What do you want to do after you find it?"
Shi Xiaonian asked, her voice trembling slightly.
"I'll kill him!"
Gong Ou sneered, and that laugh looked particularly sinister in the night.
“…”
Shi Xiaonian bit her lips until they turned white, and the emotions welling up in her heart were indescribable.
Gong Ou really wasn't ready to leave. Shi Xiaonian couldn't persuade her, so she had no choice but to stay with him.
The lights in the old house are on.
Shi Xiaonian was sitting on the side of the balcony door, looking at the milk powder, stirring it with a thin spoon, looking at the bed with a pair of black and white eyes. Gong Ou was half lying on the bed, holding a tablet in his hand, slender His fingers were swiping rapidly on it, not knowing what he was doing.
"Does it have to be like this?"
Shi Xiaonian asked.
"Feeling distressed?" Gong Ou looked at her with indifference in his eyes, "If he stayed abroad peacefully, I wouldn't have touched him, but he actually ran back secretly. Who knows what he wanted to do? Is he still there? Want to talk to you about the past?"
"You know this is impossible."
Things between her and Mu Qianchu were completely over, no matter the good or bad.
He had gone through this with her, and now he still said such things.
"Who knows." Gong Ou sneered sarcastically, and his fingers quickly operated on the tablet.
"He didn't disturb us when he came back. He just went to pay homage to Xiaodi. Besides, he no longer has the ability to deal with you." Shi Xiaonian said with a pale voice.
"Just because he has so much history with you, he makes me unhappy." Gong Ou said coldly, paranoid to the point of madness, "Since he has the guts to come back and protect the gifts, it's normal for me to find him and play with him. ,Is not it?"
They are natural enemies anyway.
His tone was as casual as wanting to crush a grasshopper to death.
Shi Xiaonian turned the warm milk cup in her hand, looked down at the milk swaying in the cup, and whispered, "It's okay if you are joking, I'm afraid... you are not joking at all."
She was afraid that everything he was doing that seemed unbelievable had his reasons and purposes.
Obviously he wasn't going to tell her, and she was too stupid to guess.
“…”
Hearing this, Gong Ou leaned against the bedside, his fingers froze on the tablet screen, his thin lips tightened, and his dark eyes fixed for a long time, until he didn't see anything on the tablet.
A room of silence.
Suddenly, Gong Ou turned off the tablet, looked up at the milk cup in her hand, and said displeasedly, "Drink the milk yet."
He didn't confront her words.
He escaped.
Faced with this situation, Shi Xiaonian's heart sank even more. She picked up the milk cup to drink, but the cup was snatched away by a free hand.
Gong Ou stood in front of her and took the cup away, lowered his head and took a sip, frowning, "It's cold." (To be continued)
