"Madam! Why did you come to England?!" Xia Tong raised her head in surprise, and was startled when she saw a small apple face appear in front of her.
"……."
"Madam!" Rong Ranran was so happy that she wanted to cry: "Where did you go a year ago? Do you know that the young master is so anxious to find you that he is almost dying! He is thinking about you in his dreams, how pitiful...
.”
Madam? Master? Be good?
Xia Tong frowned in confusion. Can anyone tell her what the girl in front of her is talking about?
"Um..." She hesitated and asked, "I...do you know me?"
Rong Ranran was stunned, "Madam, you don't recognize me? I am Ranran!"
Xia Tong let go of her hand and smiled awkwardly: "Sorry, there are many things that I don't remember very well." Despite this, she paid attention to what she just said.
"That——." She pointed to the seat opposite and said, "Can you sit down and let's talk slowly."
When Ran Ran heard that she didn't remember anything, her eye circles immediately turned red. She nodded hurriedly and sat down opposite her.
Not far from the coffee shop, there was a man sitting. As soon as he saw Ran Ran appear, he wanted to get up on guard.
Xia Tong knew that he should have been sent by Gu Haoran. She used to think that he was protecting her, but now, she felt that it was more like surveillance.
Suddenly, her hand 'unfortunately' knocked over the coffee on the table, and the coffee 'unfortunately' splashed onto Ran Ran's beige sweater. Ran Ran screamed and stood up.
.
Xia Tong hurriedly stood up, with a look of confusion on his face: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry... I didn't mean to..."
At this time, a store clerk came over and asked, "Can I help you?"
Xia Tong grabbed Ran Ran's arm and said, "No, I'll just take her to the bathroom to deal with it."
Xia Tong had been to this store many times, so she was familiar with where the bathroom was. When helping Ran Ran to the bathroom, Xia Tong noticed that the man seemed a little worried, but there was nothing she could do about it.
Xia Tong was sure that he would not dare to follow the two girls into the bathroom in front of everyone.
Aren’t you afraid of being coaxed out as a pervert?
As soon as the bathroom door closed, Xia Tong leaned against the door with his back, his expression became serious and cold, and asked: "Do you know what my name is?"
"Xia Tong." Ran Ran answered quickly.
Xia Tong breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that he did know her.
She said: "Something has happened to me this year, and I can't remember many things in the past clearly. Can you tell me about it, including the young master, madam, and Guaiguai you mentioned...everything, I
Everyone needs to know!”
********** ************
In the pastoral villa, Gu Haoran walked out of the study. He didn't sleep all night last night and stayed in the study almost all night. It took him another morning today to finish all the work accumulated in the past few days.
.
At this moment, he felt an indescribable relief all over his body. As he unbuttoned his cufflinks and went downstairs, he looked up and saw Butler Chen directing two servants to carry fresh vegetables into the kitchen.
Chen Yuanyuan also saw him and smiled flatteringly: "Mr. Gu."
He nodded: "Put everything there, I will cook at noon today."
"You cook?" Chen Yuanyuan was suspicious. When she was first invited to work as a housekeeper in this villa, she was frightened by the lifestyle of this 'family'. In ordinary families, the male leads the outside and the female leads the household. The husband is responsible for working outside the home.
To make money, the wife should stay at home and cook, do housework, and serve her husband virtuously.
It turns out that the hostess of this house sleeps for more than 12 hours a day. Even when she is awake, she sits and reads a book or goes out to drink coffee. On the contrary, this husband, who seems to be very independent, works and takes care of his wife.
I cook from time to time to please my hostess.
And he always looks worried and afraid that his wife will be angry.
Such a man is so perfect! Chen Yuanyuan couldn't help but sigh, why can't she meet one?
"Well, yes." He rolled up his sleeves and walked into the kitchen as if he didn't want to say more.
Being kicked out, Chen Yuanyuan had nothing to do, so she decided to find her dear "Luke". "Luke" was a Pomeranian she raised. He was cute and obedient, and she always took him with him habitually.
Be around.
When he first came here, Gu Haoran was a little disgusted. He was afraid that raising a dog would be bad for Xia Tong's health, so he ordered her to take it away. Although Chen Yuanyuan was very sad, she understood that among all things, the owner is the greatest. So,
Although I am sad, I can only ask my friends to help take care of it.
What she didn't expect was that things took a breakthrough turn in the end.
The hostess not only likes dogs, but also particularly likes the well-behaved and sensible Luke. Every time after dinner, she likes to hold him and watch TV for a while. Seeing that she likes it, Gu Hao never mentioned sending Luke away again.
********* ********
"Luke..." In the garden, Chen Yuanyuan stood on tiptoes and called.
"Luke, my baby... where are you?" Surprisingly, little Luke, who usually ran out happily as soon as he noticed her breath, was inexplicably silent today.
Chen Yuanyuan frowned, a little strange, and continued to shout: "Luke, don't hide and seek with mommy, come out quickly..." Suddenly her footsteps stopped, and her body seemed to freeze, freezing in place.
Then, a scream came from the garden: "Ah!"
In the kitchen, Gu Haoran, who was washing the ribs and preparing soup, frowned in displeasure at the heart-rending scream. He washed his hands and walked out of the kitchen.
In the distance, he saw a round figure with its back to him, motionless, shoulders shaking, as if crying. It was the housekeeper Chen Yuanyuan.
He walked up and asked, "What's wrong?"
She still didn't move, and her shoulders shook even more.
Gu Haoran stepped in front of her and was slightly startled when he saw the soft corpse in her hands.
This is... Luke? And it seems to be dead?
What happened?
Chen Yuanyuan's eyes were red and her shoulders were shaking, as if she was enduring great pain. She and Luke had always had a deep relationship.
"Mr. Gu..." she choked: "Luke is dead! It is dead...how could it be dead?"
"..." Gu Haoran said nothing.
"It has always been lively and cute, obedient and docile. How could it die?"
"……."
"How could it be?" She squatted down, hugged Luke's body tightly, and began to cry.
Gu Haoran's eyes followed downwards, and his sharp deep eyes froze when he noticed a few white potions on the grass.
He knelt down, picked them up one by one, put them in his hand, and looked at them carefully.
