âThose lawyers arenât simple people. It must be difficult to get someone to take action. Mister must have put in a lot of effort, right?â Shi Xiaonian said with a smile.
Shi Xiaonian lowered her eyes and saw a new message.
[No. This is a present for you, I hope you like it.]
Before Shi Xiaonian could react, the man took out a slender gift box from her coat pocket and pushed it in front of Shi Xiaonian.
Shi Xiaonian sat there feeling helpless and uneasy, she looked at his glasses and said, âSir has helped me so much, there is one thing I do not want to hide from you, Sir. Actually, I do not have to win this lawsuit, I only want to find an opportunity to let Gong Ou get closer to the children, there is no other reason.â
The hidden meaning behind his words was to refuse in disguise.
The man looked at her silently as his fingers started moving again on his phone. Shi Xiaonian looked down at his own phone and saw another short message on it.
When Shi Xiaonian saw this, her eyes dimmed. She then looked at the man, revealed a smile, and said resolutely, âYes, I love him. I donât really want to break up with him.â
At first she really wanted to break up.
[Money? You donât seem like such a person.]
Seeing such a message, Shi Xiaonian couldnât help but giggle, covering her lips and cough twice. Then, she said, âItâs EQ and also ⌠warmth.â
Actually, when Gong Ou had explained the situation with Mo Nuo, she should have made up with him. But he was really too cold, too conceited, and too easy to make up with him.
A home full of indifference and enthusiasm cannot last long.
Hearing that, the man sat there for a long time without moving. He only looked at her silently, not moving at all.
What was he looking at?
Just then, the waiter brought the dishes up to the table, to ease the awkward atmosphere between the two. Shi Xiaonian picked up her knife and fork and said, âSir, please have some food.â
Shi Xiaonian looked at him, puzzled.
The man suddenly stood up and turned to leave without looking back.
Did he really want to chase after her? In the end, he heard her say that she was not prepared to cut off her relationship with Gong Ou and left.
She always felt there was something wrong here.
He had to find out.
Just as he was thinking, the radio suddenly resounded with the hostâs voice, âLancaster familyâs Mo Nuo is getting married on the 15th of next month. It was that Lancaster family who kept a low profile while digging gold and was even a noble lady who was almost engaged to Gong Ou. It was a grand play back then, and now that the protagonists have all returned to their respective places, it canât help but cause others to sigh. â
Mo Nuo was really going to get married.
Shi Xiaonian bit her lip. At this time, she wished she could contact Mo Nuo, but even if she did, Mo Nuo probably wouldnât say the truth.
Shi Xiaonian said as she walked in. As soon as she entered, she was immediately hugged by Gong Kui, âMom!â
Shi Xiaonian looked at Gong Kui in pleasant surprise. When she looked up, she saw that Gong Yao and Gong Ou were also there, Gong Yao stood at the side coolly, but Gong Ou was sitting on a chair with a cold expression, with her legs crossed and eyes like snow. âYouâre really busy, where did you go?â
The temperature of Gong Ouâs face dropped by 30%.
Long time?
âDad said to see how you usually play around. No phone calls allowed.â Gong Kui repeated every word that she said to Gong Ou without missing a single word.
âMe too?â Shi Xiaonian was startled, and then said: âBut I still have things to do later.â
âI have an appointment.â
âPhotographer, take a picture of this great motherâs face. She said that the twins werenât taking care of her and wanted to have a date with other men.â Gong Ou said coldly, with a hint of indistinct bitterness.
âNow they need you.â
âBut Iâve really made an appointment âŚâ Shi Xiaonian had not finished speaking when he heard a âbangâ sound. The car door was slammed shut by Gong Ou from the outside.
Gong Kui pouted, feeling wronged. She hadnât finished speaking, father really didnât like her at all.
