Children naturally like to go out and play.
Shi Xiaonian was so entangled by Gong Kui that she couldn't help it, and thought that Gong Ou was right. Anyway, with a large number of bodyguards following him, nothing would happen in S City.
"Okay, I'll take you there, but you...especially you, Gong Kui, you have to be obedient and don't run around, do you hear me?" Shi Xiaonian warned her chubby daughter.
"Understood! Mrs. Gong!"
Gong Kui stood at attention and gave her a nondescript military salute.
“…”
Shi Xiaonian was amused by her daughter, and turned to look at the unfinished painting on the drawing board. She would finish it when she came back, "Then let's go."
"Okay!"
Gong Kui ran out excitedly.
Shi Xiaonian took Gong Kui downstairs. Feng De was already standing at the door with his servant. He put the small bow and arrow into a violin box and handed it to Gong Yao.
"Thanks."
Gong Yao bowed his head politely towards Feng De, took the violin case and carried it on his back.
"We don't need to carry bows and arrows when we go shopping, right?" Shi Xiaonian walked over and reached out to lift the piano case on Gong Yao's shoulder. It was not light.
It's so tiring to carry it like this.
Gong Yao looked at her and shook his head, "Until I become proficient, I must always carry the bow and arrow with me."
"Who taught you this?"
Shi Xiaonian asked in surprise.
"Dad told him." Gong Kui jumped out from the side and held up Gong Yao's piano case. She shook her head repeatedly and winked, "It's so heavy. Fortunately, I didn't learn it."
Fortunately Dad didn't ask her to learn it, it was too scary.
Did Gong Ou teach his son
Shi Xiaonian was already used to being surprised by Gong Ou's recent behavior. She looked at Gong Yao's firm eyes and did not ask him to remove the piano case.
On the side, Feng De was instructing people to install cushions on the car. When Shi Xiaonian looked over, Feng De smiled kindly, "You are pregnant now. It is uncomfortable to ride in the car. Add a cushion to make it more comfortable."
"My foster father is so thoughtful."
Shi Xiaonian said gratefully.
"This is water. You can take it with you if you are thirsty on the way." Feng De said, asking the servants on the side to carry a large box of water into the car, and also brought out a box of red wine.
Shi Xiaonian was completely stunned.
"This is the latest non-alcoholic red wine launched in France. Pregnant women can also drink it. It tastes pretty good. You can try it." Feng De said, pointing to the red wine.
Shi Xiaonian laughed and said, "Father, I'm just going to buy things, not going on my honeymoon now."
Hearing this, Feng De's face showed embarrassment, "Looking at my memory, I thought you were leaving for Beibu Gulf today."
"Then take these out first."
"It's all loaded into the car, just leave it there." Feng De said, reaching out to close the trunk, and then took a soft blanket from the servant's hand, "Take this blanket with you and cover it when you are sleepy."
Shi Xiaonian looked at him in a daze, "Father, you make it sound like I'm going to travel far away."
Everyone said she wasn't going on her honeymoon today.
"Aren't I worried about you?" Feng De said, standing in front of her and staring at her deeply, "Xiao Nian, be careful along the way."
"Okay, don't worry."
Shi Xiaonian smiled and nodded, turning to look at the two children, "You two, get in the car first."
"knew."
The two children got on the bus one after another.
Shi Xiaonian was holding a blanket and was about to get into the car. Suddenly she heard the sound of a fast car. She raised her head and looked up in surprise. She saw a silver-gray sports car speeding down the road and drifting in a big circle. It suddenly braked and stopped in front of them, and countless dust and smoke were rolled up.
The car door popped open.
Gong Ou walked out of the house dusty and looked straight at her with a pair of black eyes.
In the sunlight, his face looked a little pale.
"Gong Ou?" Shi Xiaonian looked at him inexplicably, "Didn't you go to the company?"
Why are you back home again
Gong Ou stood there, reached out to close the car door, lowered his eyes, and said in a low voice, "I have documents that I forgot to take."
"Are you coming back in person to get the documents?"
Shi Xiaonian looked at him suspiciously, did the sun come out from the west today
Gong Ou didn't answer, and walked towards her silently, looking at the blanket in her hand, "Are you ready to leave now?"
"Don't change the subject." Shi Xiaonian stared at his face questioningly, rolled her eyes a few times, and said seriously, "Why did the dignified CEO come back to get the documents in person? There must be a conspiracy, I know it!"
The wind stopped in an instant.
Gong Ou stood there with his eyes lowered, his thin lips pursed with a hint of white.
"Are you reluctant to even let me go out? Do you want to come back and see me off again?" Shi Xiaonian smiled brightly and looked at him with clear eyes, "Mong Ou, you are too clingy."
The servants standing nearby lowered their heads and suppressed laughter.
Gong Ou lowered his eyes and glared at her, "Stop putting gold on your face and leave quickly. Be careful on the road."
"Oh, then I'm leaving."
Shi Xiaonian walked towards the car holding the blanket, a slender hand was raised and put back beside her.
"I'll get the files."
Gong Ou turned around and walked inside.
Shi Xiaonian bent down, then suddenly turned to look at Gong Ou's back, her soft lips moved, and she still called out in a low voice, "Gong Ou."
Gong Ou's footsteps stopped for a moment, and he slowly turned around, looking at her expressionlessly.
Shi Xiaonian threw the blanket into the car and opened her arms towards Gong Ou with a smile on her face, "A hug."
There were people standing around.
In full view.
Gong Ou glared at her, "You are sick."
"Give me a hug and I'll leave."
Shi Xiaonian stubbornly opened her arms and asked him for a hug, refusing to give up.
The servants and bodyguards on the side all suppressed their smiles and turned to look elsewhere.
Gong Ou looked at her impatiently, suddenly strode towards her, took her into his arms and hugged her hard, pressed her head with his big palm, and hugged her tightly with strong attachment. .
Shi Xiaonian was hugged so hard that she could hardly breathe.
"You are such an annoying woman, and you still call me clingy!"
Gong Ou's voice exploded above her head.
It was obvious that he held her tighter.
Shi Xiaonian laughed, put her hand on his back, and said with a smile, "Gong Ou, I will be careful, so don't worry."
As soon as she finished speaking, she could feel Gong Ou's body stiffening slightly. Shi Xiaonian let go of her hand, her eyes bright, "Then I'm leaving."
"good."
Gong Ou stood there, his black eyes staring deeply at her.
"OK Bye Bye."
Shi Xiaonian waved to him, then lowered his head and got into the car. The driver standing beside him quickly closed the door and got into the driver's seat.
The car slowly started moving forward. When Xiao Nian turned around, Gong Ou still stood there, looking straight at her.
He still stood like that until he disappeared from her sight.
He had probably forgotten to get the papers.
Shi Xiaonian lowered her eyes, looked at the blanket aside and turned over it, and found that the needle corners on the side didn't look like they were made on a factory assembly line. They were sewn by Feng De himself for her, right
So thoughtful.
Shi Xiaonian smiled faintly and hugged the blanket into his arms.
She will be careful, she will.
…
The Hill Tribe, a large-scale maternal and child products store, had already cleared the area before Shi Xiaonian and the others arrived.
Thick bodyguards stood outside, and some of them followed Shi Xiaonian and the others in.
“Are these dresses all unique?”
Shi Xiaonian stood in front of the glass showcase and asked the staff.
"Yes, these dresses are all hand-sewn. The gems on them can be replaced with pink diamonds or aquamarines." The staff introduced them to her one by one.
Shi Xiaonian took out a piece of paper from her bag and handed it to the staff, "This is our family's size. Please change the dress."
"Okay, then Mrs. Gong, please take a rest at the cafe or walk around. We will send a master to change the dress immediately."
The staff said respectfully.
"Thanks."
Shi Xiaonian smiled and took the two children to sit in the coffee area. The staff of Hill Tribe immediately brought a variety of snacks and juices.
The bodyguards who followed her removed the things one by one. Shi Xiaonian and Gong Yao barely ate, but Gong Kui drank bottle after bottle of juice.
Shi Xiaonian couldn't even stop him.
After a while, Gong Kui jumped up, her face turned red from holding back, "Mom, I need to go to the toilet."
"They say don't drink so much."
Shi Xiaonian said strangely and angrily.
"Are you going to the bathroom? Please come this way with me."
The staff pointed the way politely.
"Trouble."
Shi Xiaonian said, leading Gong Kui over, while Gong Yao followed closely with his bodyguards carrying his piano case.
Stopping at the door of the ladies' restroom, Shi Xiaonian turned to look at the bodyguards and said, "Then wait here."
"Yes, ma'am."
The bodyguards stopped.
Gong Yao stood quietly by the wall.
Shi Xiaonian pulled Gong Kui and walked in. In the innermost door of the bathroom, a man in work clothes was cleaning. Shi Xiaonian didn't pay attention and just looked at Gong Kui, "Can I do it myself?"
"all right."
Gong Kui walked into a door.
Shi Xiaonian stood outside waiting. The cleaner turned around with a bucket and met Shi Xiaonian. Shi Xiaonian subconsciously moved away, and then saw a familiar face.
Min Qiujun.
Adoptive mother.
Shi Xiaonian never thought that she would meet her adoptive mother in this place and stay there for a while.
Min Qiujun was wearing cleaning work clothes at the moment. His back was a little bent. His face used to be graceful and generous, but now it was full of wrinkles. He looked older than his actual age, all with marks of age.
Min Qiujun's eyes suddenly turned red when he looked at her, and he called her name with trembling lips, "Xiao Nian."
An unexpected encounter and a low call reminded Shi Xiaonian, who had just returned to his hometown, of those times when he was a child. At that time, Min Qiujun would hold her in his arms lovingly and call her name over and over again.
"How will you be here?"
Shi Xiaonian avoided her eyes and asked lightly. Then she thought of the raging fire in her hometown and the bloody words on the wall.
"I'm working here." Min Qiujun's voice was trembling, and he suddenly looked outside the bathroom and said nervously, "Is Gong Ou here too? He has been catching us and not giving us a way to survive."
Min Qiujun's voice was shaking uncomfortably.
Facing Min Qiujun's nervous, pale and haggard face, Shi Xiaonian didn't know what to say. He just said, "He's not here. I'll pretend I've never met you." (To be continued)
