Gong Kui stretched lazily and walked around in circles around Shi Xiaonian, pressing her belly against hers from time to time, "When will the baby come out?"
"Did the baby answer you?"
Shi Xiaonian stood on the grass and asked with a smile.
"Answered. The baby will come out when he says that my sister got perfect marks in all her homework." Gong Kui giggled, and Shi Xiaonian was also amused.
Gong Yao stood aside and glanced at his sister faintly, "Then the baby must not want to see your sister."
"Why?"
"Because you didn't get a perfect score."
“…”
Gong Kui stood there stupidly, suddenly looking hurt, holding her heart with her little hand as if she was vomiting blood, "How could I have a brother like this? I didn't teach him well. I'm sad."
“…”
“…”
Shi Xiaonian and Gong Yao were speechless watching her performance, but immediately Shi Xiaonian smiled with relief. Fortunately, the gunfight only left Gong Kui with the sequelae of being unable to hear gunshots, and did not destroy her quirky nature.
There was a gentle breeze, the sun was just right, and the smell in the air was so fresh.
Suddenly, a group of bodyguards of various shapes hurried past them. Gong Kui waved to them sweetly, but no one paid attention to her.
Everyone ran in the same direction, all with serious expressions on their faces.
Shi Xiaonian's heart skipped a beat. Her first reaction was that something happened, but what other big thing could happen in this place of refuge that would make these bodyguards in such a hurry
The direction they ran seemed to be where Tokichu and his wife lived.
As if she had a premonition, Shi Xiaonian felt a chill in her heart, and her face suddenly turned pale. She reached out and pushed Gong Kui towards Gong Yao, "You two go in and prepare for class."
"I want to play with Mom for a while longer." Gong Kui said reluctantly.
"I'll play with you in class."
Shi Xiaonian forced out a smile with difficulty and pushed the two children away. After watching them enter the villa, she ran in the direction of the bodyguards without looking back.
The separate hut was crowded with people, and bodyguards stood there densely.
The two figures of Mu Qianchu and Luo Lie stood at the very back.
Shi Xiaonian walked forward, pushed through the crowd, and walked to the end amidst the whispers. He saw Shi Zhong slumped at the door, with his head hanging down, slapping himself in the face from time to time. , the despair on his face is shocking.
He smelled strongly of alcohol.
"It was discovered too late, put the person down."
Luo Lie's voice sounded immediately, and when he turned his head, he saw Shi Xiaonian's figure, and immediately shouted out in shock, "Mrs. Gong!"
Mu Qianchu stood there with a look of shock on his face, and subconsciously wanted to block Shi Xiaonian's body, but he was blind and did not block him. Shi Xiaonian still saw what he should have seen.
In the small room with clear windows, a chair was kicked over in the middle.
A thin and vicissitudes of life figure just hung in mid-air, with her legs hanging down and wearing a pair of exquisite women's leather shoes. Her hands were slightly clasped, as if to grab something.
Following her hand and looking to the ground, a photo of Shi Di fell on the ground. In the photo, Shi Di had a sweet smile.
“…”
When Shi Xiaonian stood there, all her strength was instantly deprived of her. Her whole body seemed to be frozen, unable to move.
Seeing Shi Xiaonian, Shi Zhong, who was drunk, rushed towards her with hatred on his face and grabbed her collar, "You bitch, your mother just wants to see you and you are so cruel, you will die." You killed her, you forced her to death! I want you to pay with your life! I want you to pay with your life!"
“…”
Shi Xiaonian stood there blankly, with a dull face, like a soulless person.
Shi Zhong failed to do anything to her. Everyone rushed forward and arrested Shi Zhong. Luo Lie shouted angrily, "What's wrong with Mrs. Gong? You were so drunk that you even hanged your own wife." You didn’t even realize it, it’s your problem!”
When Shi Zhong was being held, he raised his leg and kicked Shi Xiaonian desperately, "I shouldn't have raised such a naughty child like you in the first place. You are a loser. Our Shi family will be completely destroyed in your hands! I Kill you! I'll fucking kill you! Sangmenxing! Sangmenxing!"
In the chaos, Mu Qianchu pulled Shi Xiaonian back all the way.
Shi Xiaonian retreated passively, with nothing in his eyes except the two legs hanging in the air and the pair of exquisite ladies' leather shoes.
Min Qiujun has been fond of this style of leather shoes since a long time ago. After making money, the first gift she bought for Min Qiujun was women's leather shoes.
Her face was as pale as death and there was no color at all.
Mu Qianchu stumbled and pulled Shi Xiaonian out of the crowd, and said with some worry, "Xiao Nian, don't be too sad."
Mu Qianchu, who was fostered in the Shi family, knew that in this family, Shi Xiaonian was probably the most affectionate towards Min Qiuqun.
Shi Xiaonian let him hold her without saying a word.
Facing Shi Xiaonian's silence, Mu Qianchu suddenly remembered that Min Qiujun had clamored to see her last night and committed suicide today. She was afraid that she would not be able to pass this test.
"This has nothing to do with you. It's me who trapped them here without seeing the light of day. In addition, Shi Di's death. She did something stupid when she had a mental breakdown because I didn't think well in advance."
Mu Qianchu said eagerly, fearing that Shi Xiaonian would not be able to think clearly.
Shi Xiaonian still didn't speak, and the silence was so disturbing that even though Mu Qianchu was usually calm and calm, he was extremely worried now, "Xiao Nian, don't scare me, just say something."
As soon as he finished speaking, the arm he was holding suddenly softened, and Shi Xiaonian fell down softly and collapsed into his arms.
Mu Qianchu hugged her tightly and shouted, "Doctor Luo! Doctor Luo! Xiaonian has fainted!"
…
Shi Xiaonian had a dream.
In the dream, she returned to her childhood. Min Qiujun held her and rocked her, kissed her little face, and said with a smile, "Little Niannian is the most well-behaved. Mommy loves our little Niannian the most." "
"Xiao Nian is my mother's most caring child."
"Come on, Xiaonian, this time I am taking Xiaodi on a school trip. Mom bought you a small medal. You must study hard."
"It's better Xiao Nian. If you hadn't helped me take care of Qianchu, my mother wouldn't be able to do this alone."
"In the future, when Xiaonian and Xiaodi get married, I will live at Xiaonian's house, and then at Xiaodi's house, and take care of your children."
"What kind of leather shoes are you buying for me? Just stop arguing with your father and sister. I only want a peaceful wife at home. The leather shoes are expensive and you only earn a little money. Please return them quickly."
When she woke up, the sunshine outside the window was still very warm, as warm as every day, no different.
The world will not be any different if any life is lost.
Shi Xiaonian slowly sat up from the bed and leaned against the head of the bed. Her long hair was spread out and the ends were a little yellow. She lowered her eyes and her pale face was extremely dull, without any expression.
The servants came in one after another to bring her food and drinks, but they didn't hear a word from her.
Mu Qianchu brought her Min Qiujun's suicide note, which contained Min Qiujun's last words.
Xiaonian, I know you hate your mother. In fact, your mother just wants to see you one last time and see you again. No matter whether you were wrong or right in the past, forget about it. Xiao Di is gone, and there is no point in living for me. She is lonely down there alone, so I will go and stay with her.
Just a few words.
"She didn't commit suicide because you didn't go to see her. She had already made this decision." Mu Qianchu said.
When Shi Xiaonian went to see Min Qiujun, it would not change this ending, but it would just make Min Qiujun's departure less regretful.
“…”
Shi Xiaonian sat silently, no different from wood.
Min Qiujun's suicide deeply touched Shi Xiaonian. Just when she thought some of the shadows would pass, reality gave her a severe blow.
Shadows never fade away easily.
She chose to believe in people, causing her children to fall into a trap; she chose not to believe, and the people she once valued were hanging in front of her eyes.
What did she do right
She just wanted the most ordinary life. Why, along the way, there were fewer and fewer people around her.
How many people will she influence in the future? Will her presence make those around her happier, or make them worse off? Who will be the next person to disappear because of her? Who will be hurt because of her? It's Luo Lie, it's Mu Qianchu, it's countless bodyguards, it's her children, or it's Gong Ou who treats her as a shogi player.
Min Qiujun's death became the last straw for Shi Xiaonian. The image of Shi Zhong hysterically calling her a "lost star" kept appearing in front of her eyes.
Lingering.
No matter how much you wipe it, it won't go away.
"boom."
Mu Qianchu exited Shi Xiaonian's room, reached out and gently closed the door. With a sad look on his brows, he opened his mouth and asked, "Where is Dr. Luo?"
"I'm here."
Luo Lie stood in front of the wall not far away and spoke, with his hands in his trouser pockets. Looking at Mu Qianchu's expression, he guessed, "Mrs. Gong still won't speak?"
"Yes." Mu Qianchu raised his hand and touched the wall and walked slowly forward, stood opposite Luo Lie, and said calmly, "You are well versed in the psychology of pregnant women, why not go in and have a chat with her."
"I've already gone in. Mrs. Gong is obviously living in a world of her own and refuses to communicate with anyone." Luo Lie shook his head and said a little discouraged, "There should be a lot of things she can't figure out right now, and she doesn't need the outside world." help."
Two men were standing in the corridor.
After a moment of silence, Mu Qianchu whispered, "Xiao Nian is the adopted daughter of the Shi family. Her adoptive parents have been partial to her younger sister since she was a child, but her adoptive mother still cares about her. No matter what, Xiao Nian still has feelings for her adoptive mother. ."
"Family affection is an emotion in this world that is more difficult to sort out than love. In the subconscious of most people, family affection cannot be truly cut off, so the negative side of family affection can cause hundreds or thousands of times more harm to people." Luo Luo Lie said, "In the previous Hill Tribe incident, Mrs. Gong was severely hit. This time it happens again. To be honest, Iron Man may not be able to withstand it."
“…”
"I've also heard about Mrs. Gong's adoptive mother crying and making noises and wanting to see her." Luo Lie said coldly, "It's not that I cursed the dead viciously. If this adoptive mother really cared about Mrs. Gong, she wouldn't be here at this time. I chose to die and deliberately made Mrs. Gong feel uncomfortable." (To be continued)
