CEO Above, Me Below

Chapter 657: Forcibly changing the last wish of the palace noble

Hearing this, Luo Qi nodded, and said sadly, Yes, this is what has prevented me from giving up on him for decades.

...

If he hates me and has other women, I will give up. But he is cold to me, and he is colder and stricter to others. I always hope that I am different from others. Once I hope that I am different Ten years. Luo Qi looked up at Shi Xiaonian's calm face, Women are just so paranoid, right?

yes.

Shi Xiaonian nodded in agreement, she never had all kinds of suspicions about Gong Ou.

After Shi Xiaonian's words fell, the two of them fell silent. Luo Qi sat there, and she was no longer in a hurry to go to the engagement ceremony.

After a while, she looked at Shi Xiaonian, and asked in disbelief, Are you serious about the soil and the flowers that you planted for me?

After decades, Luo Qi couldn't accept that Gong Jue cared about her for a while.

Otherwise, I can't think of other reasons. Shi Xiaonian said, staring at Luo Qi with clear eyes, I believe that if you think about it carefully, there are still many things that fathers do for mothers, but they may all be ignored.

Hearing this, Luo Qi suddenly felt a little nervous sitting there, There are many more, will you?

She is like a woman who has just stepped into love, confused, unbelievable, inferior, and eagerly looking forward to it.

Shi Xiaonian felt a little guilty for deceiving such a woman, but she still said, Well, if I hadn't asked someone about this flower, I wouldn't have known that it was so difficult to grow, and my father made it for you. Do not say a word.

Then what else do you see in the log?

Luo Qi asked, looking at Shi Xiaonian with such anticipation.

Shi Xiaonian shook his head, The diary only records your activities, I can't see too much, but I think my father has ambitions all his life, besides the Gong family, he must not let you go.

...

Luo Qi's eyes dimmed.

Didn't father leave you anything when he left? Shi Xiaonian asked.

Just one Gong family and one substitute, you have seen it too. Luo Qi smiled bitterly, Aside from these, he left me nothing.

Really? Shi Xiaonian replied lightly, I thought that a man with father's temperament would definitely leave something for you silently.

No. Luo Qi shook her head, He was already terminally ill when he left, and besides me, there was nothing but his favorite watch.

So how could she not complain, but no matter how much she complained about that man, it was she who had worked so hard to marry him.

Is it the watch that my father is wearing? Shi Xiaonian asked, Why does my father like that watch so much? Is it a gift from my mother?

It is true that I bought it, but he likes it because the watch has collection value, and it has a date, and the time is extremely accurate.

Rocky said.

Hearing this, Shi Xiaonian smiled lightly.

What are you laughing at? Luo Qi asked.

I think that Gong Ou is a very duplicity person. Every time he says that the things I bought are not good and this is not good, but he doesn't like them very much. He always carries them with him. Shi Xiaonian said, without saying too much. clear.

Luo Qi is a smart woman. If she speaks too plainly, it will arouse suspicion, as long as half of her words make her think for herself.

This is what Gong Ou taught her.

But Shi Xiaonian didn't know if he could succeed, so he could only wait secretly.

Sure enough, Luo Qi was stunned for a while when she heard her words, then stood up suddenly and left. Shi Xiaonian looked at her in astonishment, Mother, where are you going?

Luo Qi stopped, turned to look at her, and said, Come with me too.

it is good.

Shi Xiaonian followed.

Luo Qi went all the way to Gong Jue's study room, opened the bookshelf and walked in, the air-conditioning inside still made Shi Xiaonian shrink back unconsciously.

Luo Qi hurriedly walked to the side of the partition door, pressed the button, opened the glass coffin lid, and took off the watch from Gong Jue's hand.

What are you doing?

Shi Xiaonian pretended to be puzzled and asked.

My husband has worn this watch for a long time, and it has become a symbol of him. The double has had plastic surgery and it doesn't look too similar, so it's easy to tell. So I let the double wear the watch when he meets people who are close to him, and turn his body sideways. Or if you turn around, you won't be recognized easily, Luo Qi said.

So that's how it is.

No wonder the stand-in saw that she was wearing a watch last time, and probably thought she was someone close to Gongjue, and knew about the watch, so she hurriedly took it off from Gongjue's hand, that's why the watch was so cold.

Luo Qi put the cold watch in her hand and looked at it carefully. After looking at it for a long time, she was a little disappointed and said, I don't think there will be any words left.

She was a little self-deprecating.

Any woman who falls in love with someone like Gong Jue will become extremely unconfident.

Shi Xiaonian stood beside Luo Qi, reaching out to take the watch in her hand.

Luo Qi let her take it, looking at Shi Xiaonian's eyes full of expectation and trust, Shi Xiaonian understood that he was deceiving a person who had been looking forward to a relationship for decades, guilt spread in his heart.

She avoided Luo Qi's gaze, pretended to look at the watch in her hand, and said, Yeah, this watch doesn't have any mechanism, hey, what do the numbers and English on the back of this watch mean?

Hearing this, Luo Qi glanced at it, and said with some disappointment, It was engraved on it when I bought it, with our initials and date engraved on it.

So that's it. Shi Xiaonian chuckled and said, I thought it was the serial number of the library.

library?

Yes, I used to go to the library to read books, and the arrangement was like this. Shi Xiaonian said, The front is the category, and the back is the number of the vertical and horizontal bookshelves. Which row is which book like this.

Arranging the serial number? Luo Qi stared at her blankly, then took her initiative to pull her out, took her out of this room, walked to the study in front, closed the bookshelf, and said, My husband I often stay in this study when I go home, and it hasn’t been touched after his death.”

...

Come on, Xiao Nian, you know the layout of the library, see if you can find any books from this sequence number. Luo Qi said, pinning all her hopes on Shi Xiaonian.

it is good.

Shi Xiaonian nodded, bit her lips with her white teeth, looked down at the cold watch in her hand, and pretended to search for the English and numbers on it, This English letter should represent this area. .”

In the huge and ancient study room, Luo Qi looked nervously at Shi Xiaonian, followed her, and asked, And then?

This number classification is different from the ones I saw in the library. It may be a different classification. Shi Xiaonian said lightly, swipe across the rows of books, find the row of books on the upper level, and then point to a row of books. After arranging the codes, he shook his head and said, Mom, I don't know, but if you follow the library's arrangement method, it should be one of these few books.

Hearing this, Luo Qi hurriedly stood on tiptoe and took down all the books and put them on the desk.

...

Shi Xiaonian felt a little uncomfortable seeing her urgent appearance.

Luo Qi stood there flipping through the books quickly, Shi Xiaonian also walked over to help flip through the books, her eyes fell on the pile of books.

The book was right next to Luo Qi.

Soon, Luo Qi picked up the book and opened it, a piece of yellowed paper fell from inside, Luo Qi froze there, staring down at the folded paper.

...

Shi Xiaonian stood there silently.

Luo Qi's delicate makeup couldn't stop her paleness, she raised her hand but retracted it, not having the courage to open it, Xiao Nian, look first.

Mother?

Look first.

Luo Qi said again, and turned her face away again, with water in her eyes flickering, trying her best to control her demeanor.

Okay. Shi Xiaonian took a deep breath, reached out to pick up the paper and opened it, looked down at the writing on it, every word on it was figured out by her and Gong Ou together, she thought about the content, Gong Ou will decide The way of tone, and finally let a copying master write it out.

This is a huge deception.

Shi Xiaonian glanced at Luo Qi, and then slowly read out, Qi, I'm sick, I never thought I would suffer from such a disease at such a young age, how should you make arrangements for the future of the Gong family. Gong Ou You act arbitrarily, have talent but refuse to use it to the Gong family, if the Gong family loses after me, how will you deal with yourself, without a strong family to shield you from the wind and rain, how can you be worthy of your desperation back then marry me.

...

Luo Qi stood by and listened, covering her face with her hands, tears streaming down her face.

Shi Xiaonian paused, and continued to read, No matter what, I must arrange everything for you before I die, so that you will not be looked down upon by others. This family must also continue to shine, so that you can always have a place among the nobles. A place.

...

Luo Qi sat down in front of the bookshelf, already crying uncontrollably.

It's over. Shi Xiaonian looked down at her and said, Mother, this doesn't seem like my last words to you, but just my father's momentary emotion.

Luo Qi took the paper, her fingers trembling, she looked down at the handwriting on it, it was Gong Jue's handwriting, but the handwriting was messy and hurried, This should be written when he was just sick, he has always been calm, even in the face of terminal illness. It turned out that he was also in a mess, but I didn't see it, I never saw it.

Luo Qi spoke incoherently.

Mother, don't do this, father will be sad when he sees it.

Shi Xiaonian said calmly, tormented by her own deception.

I always thought he didn't have me in his heart, only the Gong family. Luo Qi said with tears, without any scruples about her image, she pulled Shi Xiaonian and said, But you see, when he was sick, he thought of me. He thinks that only the Guangyao Gong family can live a better life for me, so he thinks so.

she does not know.

She never knew that her husband was so confused when he was ill, and that he was thinking about her future life all the time.
