Chapter 58: Just a Pawn
Standing there and thinking for a while, Nangong Che turned to look at Situ Jing, dragged the stool beside the dressing table to the bed, and then went out by himself
After a while, Situ Jing's door opened again. Nangong Che brought the computer in, found a sofa and sat down, turned on the computer to start handling business.
Gu Yuebai was called into the study by the old man, and he was still immersed in what the old man said just now. He turned around and saw the old man blocking the door and coaxing half-hearted and half-deceiving the little bun with his pouting mouth came in. He felt cold in his heart
Nangong Yi, you always say that the little bun is also the blood of the Nangong family, but now I would rather you never find our mother and son back, that is much better than letting the little bun be hurt.
When Gu Yuebai came to his senses, the old man had closed the door and could hear his breathing quietly in the study.
The old man closed the door and his face darkened again, "What did you say to Xiaojing? How could she commit suicide?"
Gu Yuebai's face slowly lost her blood color, but she still maintained a very stubborn posture. The lights on the desk were dim, which made the old man unable to see her expression clearly. He sighed and slowed down his tone, "Why are you provoking Situ Jing at this time?"
Gu Yuebai smiled coldly in his heart. Is the old man angry? Finally, all his attitudes could not be concealed? She was destined to be a pawn when facing her "prospective wife"!
Gu Yuebai's eyes flashed with a sad helplessness, and her face was calm and she couldn't tell anything different. She just asked lightly, "Will you divorce me because of this?"
The old man was choked and his face was not good-looking, but he couldn't lose his temper at her. The Nangong family was already very sorry for her. How could she do such an unkind and unjust thing when she was being paid attention to by everyone? Moreover, if that were the case, Xiao Baozi would definitely follow her even if he could use legal relations to let the court award the child to the Nangong family.
But at that time, Xiao Baozi's identity will be made public. Will his stubborn son still be willing to marry Situ Jing safely? If the Situ family knew that his son already had children, would he still let Situ Jing marry him so safely? Humph... His Nangong family didn't want to owe the Situ family favors, and he didn't want to leave any talk!
"What are you talking about?" The old man's face turned pale, and his words were even more angry and embarrassed as he was seen through!
Gu Yuebai smiled faintly, with a faint sarcasm in his voice, "Isn't it? I'm just an unknown pawn, and a pawn who has been slandering the Nangong family. According to the past practice, "Gu Yuebai looked up at the old man, "I should have abandoned it long ago."
The old man's heart couldn't help but jump. Gu Yuebai, who now looks like this, is not like the gentle girl at the time, but more like a sword showing a sharp edge. He quickly put away the surprise in his heart. The old man's voice remained slightly majestic and gentle.
"Why do you think so? After all, you are my wife in name. No matter how rude the Situ family is, it is impossible for them to do such a thing that does not give face to the Nangong family."
Gu Yuebai nodded, "Oh." In other words, if the Situ family forced themselves too hard, this trick could still be used.
The old man thought she was relieved, so he adjusted his attitude a little and said, "Don't worry, as long as I am with this old bone, I will try my best to keep you mother and son in good condition."
Gu Yuebai smiled, as if he was not grateful at all, he didn't say anything, just stood there like that
The old man felt that Gu Yuebai was a little strange today. Could it be that Xiaojing committed suicide because of her? "Okay, you can go down for this period of time first, and you should try to meet Xiaojing as little as possible."
Gu Yuebai's mouth moved, his mouth tighter, but in the end he didn't say anything, turned around and went out to Nangong Yi. I don't believe you wouldn't know that the last person who entered Situ Jing's room was Nangong Che
You made everyone know that I was the last person to enter Situ Jing’s room so much that I sacrificed me in the future? Is it still so hypocritical now that I am talking! It’s true that I am a businessman’s true nature
That night, the Nangong family was particularly quiet not only the owner was quiet, but even the servants were so proud that they didn't dare to breathe.
The night falls deep, and the whole sky is no longer as clear as before, infected with a little loneliness, like a quilt, covered in this quiet and prosperous villa area. The more prosperous it is, the more corrupt it is...
Standing on the terrace and thinking about her worries, Gu Yuebai looked at the night sky, suppressing the uneasiness in her heart. The calmness on the surface could not hide the turbulent waves in the dark. She still clearly smelled the smell before the storm tomorrow, and didn't know what would happen.
Gu Yuebai packed up his mood and coaxed Xiao Baozi to sleep. He lay on the bedside and looked at Xiao Baozi's sleeping face in a daze. He made a secret decision. No matter what, no matter what, they can't break up from their mother and son.
Xiao Baozi also slept very quietly, but his hands were tightly clutching Gu Yuebai's clothes and he refused to spread them at all. As expected, it was only five o'clock in the morning, Xiao Baozi woke up.
Gu Yuebai, who had just woken up, saw Xiao Baozi wake up, and smiled and kissed his cheek, coaxing him to sleep for a while, but no matter what, Xiao Baozi refused to sleep but instead pestered Gu Yuebai.
Gu Yuebai had no choice but to clean up for him. The mother and son went downstairs to the kitchen to make breakfast.
As usual, Mrs. Lan was already busy. Gu Yuebai greeted Mrs. Lan and reached out to help. However, Mrs. Lan blocked Gu Yuebai's hand with an embarrassment and stammered and couldn't explain why.
Gu Yuebai turned around and looked at the soaked red dates, fresh pork liver and other things. He knew it. It seemed that this was something for Situ Jing. Mrs. Lan was afraid that she would do something in it.
Gu Yuebai snorted in her heart disdainfully. She, Gu Yuebai, would not do such things that harm others and not benefit herself like Situ Jing! She said that, she was going to pull the little bun out for breakfast.
Little bun is naturally happy, and Mrs. Lan breathed a sigh of relief, and her face was filled with a smile.
Gu Yuebai seemed to have not heard it, and walked while talking to Xiao Baozi. However, as soon as he walked out of the kitchen door and walked into the living room, Xiao Baozi stopped, pouted, staring at Gu Yuebai in front of him, and also noticed the black shadow in front of him, his body stiffened, and then relaxed.
"Please let me go, I'm going out." Gu Yuebai showed a faint alienated smile on his face, as if the person in front of him was just a passerby.
Nangong Che tensed his jaw and looked at the woman in front of him with a deep look. What exactly did she want to do? Now he didn't know what she wanted to do. What purpose did she think he didn't hear the conversation she had with Mrs. Lan in the kitchen just now? He was still in the mood to make breakfast for everyone at this time?
"Hey! Brother!!" Xiao Baozi couldn't help but get angry when he saw his dangerous eyes, and deliberately shouted out the title of Nangong Che that was extremely disgusting.
Nangong Che's body froze as he wished, then slowly lowered his head and narrowed his eyes, "Stinky little guy, I'm not your brother."
Xiao Baozi smiled with a bad nature, leaned over, stretched out his arms and hugged Gu Yuebai's waist, proudly, "My mother is your stepmother."
Nangong Che was almost so angry that his teeth were itchy. Every time the little ghost could use this topic to anger himself and gritted his teeth fiercely. Gu Yuebai in front of him seemed to become annoyed again. He took a step toward him suddenly. Nangong Che walked into the kitchen step by step and asked loudly, "Sister Lan, has Xiaojing's porridge not been cooked yet?"
Gu Yuebai, who was holding Xiao Baozi's hand and was about to continue walking, heard this clearly, and felt bitter in his heart. When he remembered Nangong Che's face he had just seen, it was obvious that only those who had not slept all night would have it.
The heart hurt even more. Gu Yuebai's face almost turned pale, and she forced a smile, "Let's go"
Little Baozi nodded obediently and opened his mouth. He originally wanted to say he wouldn't go out, but he still shut up. He hadn't had breakfast alone with his mother for a long time. He missed that feeling.
Gu Yuebai and Xiao Baozi declined the driver's kindness and led the Xiao Baozi slowly on the road. She remembered that she could see a snack street after walking east for about 30 minutes.
Now there are few traffic in the morning. Although Xiao Baozi's legs are short, they still only took 35 minutes to get to the snack street.
Although it is a snack street, the overall price is still high because it is close to the villa area. Fortunately, Gu Yuebai is used to carrying a wallet on his body, otherwise the mother and son would have to go back to the villa to have dinner on hungry
The mother and son found a cleaner restaurant, ordered a few dishes they often ate at that time, a portion of porridge and other foods, and the mother and son happily snored and snorted. The Nangong family had too many rules for eating, and the small buns were very restricted and could not speak casually, which was a waste of money.
Gu Yuebai saw that the little bun was eating so happily, and his originally depressed thoughts were relieved a little. At the same time, he was also a little guilty to make his son compromise in order to achieve his wish. He was really not a good mother.
The mother and son were having fun while eating. After they finished their meal, they came out of the restaurant. When they looked at the time, it was almost 7:30 and the mother and son returned to the villa at a speed of nearly turtle speed. It was already 8:00.
As soon as he walked into the gate, Gu Yuebai felt a little strange because there was an extended luxury car parked in the yard. It was obvious that it was not the Nangong family's car, and the man in uniform stood under the shade of the tree. It was obvious that it was the driver of the car.
Turning back to look at Xiaoqing outside the door, Gu Yuebai saw her winking at her, and for a moment she didn't know what was wrong
"Why are you here? Has the master eaten breakfast?" Gu Yuebai didn't take her expression seriously and asked while entering the house.
As he was talking, a sound came from inside the house
"Is it Yuebai?"
Gu Yuebai frowned. Why is the old man's voice so formal today? To put it bluntly, it is just the coldness of the relatives who do not recognize him without warmth?
