Waiting may yield results and answers, but what about the lost void? Who is filling it?
She couldn't even be jealous of Luo Ya'er's meticulous care for Li Juefeng, because she had never... she had never taken care of him.
*************************
In the flower field, several elderly people were dressed in formal attire and grand, but each of them was bending over and fertilizing various precious flowers. The flowers were blooming gorgeously, and there were a large number of bodyguards around them.
An old man was sitting on an ivory bench, wearing a simple straw hat on his head and leaning on a cane with his hands folded.
Gu Xiaoai stood there and watched quietly for a while, then turned around and prepared to leave.
The old man sitting on the bench waved to her. He had an oriental face that was rare in the Li family.
Gu Xiaoai walked over and nodded politely to him, "What's the matter? Old sir."
The old man put one hand on the crutch and pointed to the empty seat next to him with one hand, gesturing for her to sit down.
The old man only wore a shirt and a straw hat. He had a few deep wrinkles on his face. He looked at the people who were fertilizing the flower fields. Are they gardeners taking a rest?
Gu Xiaoai sat down and followed his line of sight.
In that room, all she could smell was medicine and lilies, and the fragrance from the flower field was even more pleasant.
The old man didn't speak, and Gu Xiaoai was also very quiet.
For a long time, Gu Xiaoai looked at the busy old people in the flower field and asked, "Old sir, is it good to live in the Li family?"
The old man looked at her silently and calmly.
"I want to leave, but the Li family is big and I don't know how to get out."
Maybe because they are all from the East, maybe this environment is too relaxing, Gu Xiaoai said more to the old man, "It seems that there are many people in the Li family, and you can bump into someone after just two steps, but there are not many people in the Li family."
It’s not even popular.”
She wanted to leave, but couldn't.
Even if I want to see Mr. Li, I can't.
She could only stay in this manor...looking at the expressionless faces.
Even among these old gardeners, none of them had emotions on their faces, let alone a smile.
They all seemed to be numbly doing one thing after another.
…
Hearing this, the old man looked at her, shock flashed across his eyes, and the hand holding the crutch suddenly trembled.
Gu Xiaoai sat next to the old man and didn't get a word from him. The people in the Li family were like this. They all had expressionless faces and spoke very little, like puppets.
Suddenly, the old man raised the crutch in his hand and pointed to the east.
Gu Xiaoai was stunned for a moment, "Exit?"
The old man's jaw.
"Thank you." Gu Xiaoai thanked him bitterly.
She had seen the tight security of the Li family, and she was afraid that she would be shot to death before she even reached the door.
"Old sir, I'm leaving."
After a long time, Gu Xiaoai stood up and said goodbye to the old man.
The moment she turned around, the old man's hand on the crutch was still shaking, and his face looked old.
…
Gu Xiaoai was able to walk out, but she got lost. The manor was too huge, with numerous side entrances from the main entrance. She forgot the way back, so she had to find a bodyguard to take her back to her room.
There was no sound in the corridor...
Gu Xiaoai walked to the door of the room, but found that the door was ajar. Gu Xiaoai looked in and saw a tall figure sitting on the balcony.
My heart was shaken violently.
It's Li Juefeng.
He hasn't seen her for a week since she kicked him out.
