When You’re Gone

Chapter 196 Back to the mansion

At the beginning of July, a heavy downpour suddenly swept across the city.

This rain indicates that the hot summer is really coming.

It has been more than a week since Liang Shu and Jiujiu returned to China.

The little girl needs to adapt to the environment when she comes back, but it is not as difficult as Liang Shu imagined. This is due to Liang Shu’s long-standing lifestyle.

She actually doesn’t like everything that is too western.

Especially diet.

So in the past few years, Liang Shu has learned how to cook. Although his cooking is still not very good, it is much better than when he started.

At least occasionally I get praise from Jiujiu.

For more than a week, Gu Hansheng drove by himself.

After get off work, she usually stops downstairs in the apartment where she is currently staying for a while, maybe half an hour, or two hours, or even overnight.

That night, he stayed in the car for an hour, smoked a cigarette, and drove away.

Liang Shu bought this apartment by himself.

He picked it personally, but she didn’t like it.

In fact, Liang Shu has money, and her account has money in it every year, at a fixed time.

But she never paid attention.

Although she once tore up Lu Lixian’s share gift agreement, as long as Lu Jinsheng admits it, it still has legal effect.

Later, although Lu was bankrupt and went bankrupt, Lu Jinsheng made his own way, but this thing would still be valid as long as he didn’t make a statement.

She can get a considerable dividend every year.

She hasn’t touched this money once in five years.

But before she returned to China, she used the money on the card to rent an apartment in Yucheng where she had a lot of money.

Now that she came back, she had no intention of deliberately concealing the news of her death, and she was not afraid that Lu Jinsheng would know.

That night, thunder and lightning flashed, and heavy rain poured down.

The area where Liang Shu was located was forced to power outages.

Gu Hansheng had already returned to Mansion Zero at that time, until the thunder and lightning pierced the night sky behind him, and he took the car key and went out without any hesitation.

In the hall on the first floor, Qu Yu and the servant are closing the windows and inspecting various facilities.

Seeing him hurriedly coming down from the upper floor, Qu Yu hurried forward, “Sir, are you still going out at this time?”

“Ok.”

The man walked quickly, his eyes were slightly panicked, but because his eyes were too dark, Qu Gu felt something was wrong.

Qu Yu said, “Sir, it’s thundering outside, and the rain may fall sometime, so don’t go out. It’s late at night…”

Hearing this, he paused slightly, with folds piled up around his eyebrows. He stared at the eucalyptus slightly sideways, and ordered: “Boil some **** soup, prepare some cold medicines, and pack a room suitable for adults and children. The room the child lives in.”

Eucalyptus was taken aback and nodded in a daze, “Yes.”

After the tall figure disappeared at the door, Quyu frowned, and then immediately took the servant to prepare according to the instructions of taking care of Hansheng.

There was thunder and lightning all the way, Gu Hansheng called her all the way, but Liang Shu didn’t answer it.

In this way, his speed increased several times.

When we got downstairs, the phone was finally connected.

By this time, Gu Hansheng’s worry was almost extreme. As soon as he heard her voice, the man couldn’t help it. He stood in the hall with the lights still on and stared at the marble floor, his voice was deep, with some vibrato. , “A Shu, why don’t you answer the phone?”

Over there, Liang Shu was silent for two seconds, “I didn’t hear it.”

Gu Hansheng looked at his own eyes in the mirror a bit sharp, even with the chain that looked sharp, he looked at the hall with changing numbers with one hand on his hips, and the temperature became milder, “Thunder.”

“I know,” Liang Shu asked him in silence for a while, “what’s the matter with you?”

He took a long leg, walked into the elevator, and said, “I’m downstairs.”

Soon, the man added: “I’ll pick you and Jiujiu to the mansion.”

Hearing this, Liang Shu frowned tightly.

When I wanted to talk again, there was no signal on the other end, and within a few seconds, the call was automatically disconnected due to network problems.

She looked at the pitch-black living room, and light flashed from time to time outside. After the last lightning that was as bright as daylight struck, the sky-shattering thunder blasted in the sky.

On the field, Liang Jiujiu, who finally fell asleep, suddenly woke up again.

Liang Shu reacted almost immediately, turned and ran towards the bedroom, but because the environment was too dark, she accidentally ran into the coffee table.

Before the severe pain came, she had already arrived in the bedroom.

The little girl woke up from the bed and just saw Liang Shu by her side. She hugged Liang Shu’s neck tightly and sobbed grievously, “Mom, I’m afraid.”

Liang Shu followed her back, endured the severe pain from her knee, bowed her head and kissed her face, “Don’t be afraid.”

Jiujiu watched the light of lightning flashing through the heavy curtains. She closed her eyes and sprayed her hot breath on Liang Shu’s neck. She said, “A Shu, I want to go back. It’s not good at all here.”

In an unfamiliar environment, even adults need to adapt, let alone children.

Liang Shu felt very distressed. She hugged Jiujiu, her eyes were difficult to distinguish in the dark space, she said warmly: “Then I promise Jiujiu, I will take you back when my mother finishes the matter here, okay? ”

Budapest is actually not an ideal city for Liangshu.

When the time comes, if she can, she will choose a better place to live.

The doorbell rang.

Liang Shu’s eyelids moved, and Liang Jiujiu hugged her neck tightly.

“A Shu, someone is knocking on the door.”

“Don’t be afraid.” Liang Shu rubbed her hair, “It’s Uncle Gu.”

“Ah…” Jiujiu’s reaction was a little cute. She stared at the door of the bedroom with wide eyes, “But outside… it’s thundering…”

“Yeah.” Liang Shu put her back on the bed as if comfortingly, and then covered her with the quilt, “Mom open the door, Jiujiu fell asleep, I’ll be back soon, eh?”

Liang Jiujiu buried half of his small face in the quilt, only showing a pair of dark eyes looking at Liang Shu, and nodded, “Then you hurry up.”

At first, I didn’t feel it, but when I got up, Liang Shu felt the pain in his knees.

But in order not to worry Jiujiu, she endured walking all the way to the door and didn’t have time to check the condition of her knees, so she opened the door first.

He almost looked like he was waiting to come in all the time.

Emergency lights were still on in the corridor, and light and shadow spread all the way from the outside to the carpet inside the door.

He walked in, his brows were never loosened, he stared at her face carefully, and of course he didn’t let off the painful look on her face.

When the words were being spoken, his hand had already grabbed her arm, “I can’t figure out when it will rain, and the road will be difficult to walk. I will pick you up with Jiujiu to the mansion now.”

As if afraid of her resistance, Gu Hansheng said before she refused, “Just staying for one night is better for Jiujiu, A Shu, you can’t wronged your child.”

At the end, I added another sentence: “There is a problem with the electricity here, and it must be restored at least tomorrow afternoon.”

In just a few words, he said everything.

Liang Shu closed his eyes and didn’t say anything. Another flash of lightning flashed outside.

She pulled her heart, but when she turned around, her left knee couldn’t bear the strength of her whole person, and she was about to fall to the ground.

But the man holding her arm steadily dragged her by the waist and brought her to his arms. Liang Jia took another painful breath, grabbed his shirt with his fingers, and said, “Jiu Jiu” Afraid of thunder, she is in the room, go first—”

“Don’t worry.” He hugged her sideways and put her on the sofa, then rushed into the bedroom with little reaction.

He has been in this house once, and it is no stranger to it now.

The small ball on the bed was shrunk in the quilt. Gu Hansheng watched his heart tighten. He stepped forward, hugged the small body in his arms, and said at the same time, “Jiu Jiu, it’s Uncle Gu.”

Jiujiu sniffed, and in the darkness, she couldn’t see a man’s facial features.

I just feel that this embrace is different from Liang Shu, the breath is more mellow, and the inexplicable sense of security has improved a lot.

She touched Gu Hansheng’s facial features in her palm. The tall bridge of the nose and the slightly short and stiff hair made Liang Jiujiu feel familiar. She blinked and leaned in Gu Hansheng’s arms, “Uncle Gu, it’s thunder, you’re not afraid Did you say that you live far away.”

He walked out holding her, the light of the phone made the room look less dark.

“Not far away, how about I pick you and mother to live with me?”

The little girl lay on his shoulder and blinked, then she whispered, “I’ll go wherever mom is going.”

After returning, Jiujiu became more dependent on Liang Shu.

In the living room, Liang Shu saw Liang Jiujiu being carried out by him, and got up hurriedly, but Jiujiu was the first to see her, “Mom!”

With that said, she was about to stretch out her hand to Liang Shu.

Gu Hansheng walked over, he squinted his eyes and looked down at her legs. She was wearing a long skirt that reached her ankles, covering her knees, and she couldn’t see anything.

But just then, he just saw her uncomfortable expression.

Gu Hansheng held Jiujiu with one hand, held the woman’s round shoulders in his palm, and said solemnly, “Sit down.”

Waiting for her to sit down, Gu Hansheng put Jiujiu on the sofa, and then put the phone in her arms, “I will pack up some Jiujiu’s things, and then we will leave here.”

He passed her mobile phone on the coffee table, turned and walked towards the bedroom.

“Gu Hansheng.” Liang Shu stopped behind him.

The man paused and turned his head slightly, “A Shu, don’t waste time.”

Mansion Zero has no supplies for a few-year-old girl at the moment, so I can only bring it from here.

He didn’t have much experience yet, so it took some time.

In the living room, since Gu Han was born, Liang Jiujiu’s sense of security has risen sharply, but after all, it’s not early at this time, and Jiujiu’s nerves relax and feel a little sleepy.

Liang Shu was still holding Gu Hansheng’s mobile phone at this time.

In order to prevent Jiujiu from going to sleep, she handed Gu Hansheng’s mobile phone to Jiujiu.

But soon, Gu Hansheng’s WeChat popped up a message, and he was accidentally clicked on by Jiujiu. It was a friend request. Jiujiu didn’t know, and he accidentally clicked to agree.

When she reacted, she realized that she had done something wrong with hindsight.

She handed the phone to Liang Shu and said timidly, “Mom, phone.”

Liang Shu took it with her head down, and when she was about to press the lock screen button, she suddenly realized that there was a new message that she didn’t intend to read.

It was purely because Jiujiu didn’t log out of WeChat, and it remained open.

She saw the news almost at a glance.

Gu Hansheng’s WeChat is also very simple, with very few people. The most recent news was from work a few months ago, but the person on the top is still Liang Shu, the same WeChat account she used a few years ago.

She went in and took a look, and found that the chat history between him and her still existed.

Liang Shu quit in the blink of an eye, and then he saw a message from a person whose ID was “Tao Taozi”: Mr. Gu, my aunt said that you will not go to the company tomorrow, but you will go directly to Gu’s house from home. I’d like to visit in person tomorrow and ask for advice, okay?

The deep meaning is that Liang Shu doesn’t think about it.

She glanced, then turned off the phone, and threw it aside.

Gu Hansheng walked out of the bedroom with his pockets in his pockets and walked to them, saying, “I have cleaned up some of them. I will leave them first. I will send someone to buy them tomorrow.”

Liang Shu turned his head and stared at him, and the corners of his mouth twitched coldly, “Mr. Gu, I almost thought that this power outage was caused by you.”

The atmosphere suddenly condenses.

Even Jiujiu, who was sitting on the sofa, looked at him.

There was a dark storm in Gu Hansheng’s eyes, but his eyes were so deep that even Liang Shu couldn’t see through. He followed and laughed, and he walked over to pick up Jiujiu with one hand, and Jiujiu took his arms around his neck.

He laughed, and then said, “A Shu, you might as well say that this coming thunderstorm outside was also arranged by me.”

But Liang Shu felt resistance at the moment. Her fingernails pressed against her palms and her lips pressed tightly. After a while, she said, “After all, it is very rare for high-end communities to encounter power outages.”

The man’s eyes were burning, her eyes were reflected in the dark pupils, and the light refracted by the phone lights hit the two of them with a strange look.

He opened his lips, “So you have to pour this dirty water on me too?”

“Jiu Jiu is not used to this place, you will force us to come back at any cost, what else can’t you do?” Liang Shu said indifferently.

Gu Hansheng accidentally said this problem in front of Jiujiu. He was holding Jiujiu and still carrying his pockets. He couldn’t free his extra hands. He only squinted his eyes and said, “It’s going to rain outside, let’s go back and talk about what .”

After he finished speaking, he was afraid that his tone would become a little harder, and he took a step forward, “A Shu, don’t be willful, now is not the time to be angry.”

He held Liang Jiujiu at the door and waited for her.

The dim light in the corridor was spreading on the Persian carpet at the door. Jiujiu hugged the man’s neck with one hand, and waved at Liang Shu with the other, “A Shu, come on.”

It’s late, it’s already the point where Jiujiu goes to bed.

Liang Shu walked towards the door.

Taking the elevator all the way downstairs, Gu Hansheng first carried Jiujiu into the car, and then went back to pick up Liang Shu, who was a step slower.

She walked really slowly.

At the entrance of the hall, Gu Hansheng directly beat her up and hugged her, still a little worried, “Where is it uncomfortable?”

The woman pursed her lips arrogantly, said nothing, and knew that it was useless to struggle, so she simply closed her eyes.

Without a child safety seat in the car, Liang Shu hugged Jiujiu on his lap.

Not long after the car started, Liang Shu said to him, “I won’t go to Mansion Zero with you, I will go to the hotel with Jiujiu.”

Lightning outside was accompanied by thunder, and there was a heavy rain in an instant.

The man driving silently in the front seat did not speak.

Liang Shu didn’t look at him, but if she looked up at the rearview mirror at this moment, she would see the thick haze between the man’s eyebrows, but with long helplessness.

After a while, he said, “The hotel conditions are not good, and Jiujiu is not used to it. Do you want her to get sick, A Shu.”

For a while, Jiujiu was already quite sleepy, she was lying in Liang Shu’s arms as if she was going to sleep.

Liang Shu lowered his head and glanced at the little girl who knew nothing about the world. Then he raised his head and met the eyes in the rearview mirror, “Isn’t all this Mr. Gu’s handwriting?”

Gu Hansheng stopped talking.

Before the heavy rain, the car smoothly entered the boundary of Mansion Zero.

In the dark night, the scenery outside could not be seen through, Liang Shu closed his eyes and calmed down.

She hadn’t checked her knee problem, and she hugged Jiujiu all the way. It was a little difficult to get off the car at the moment.

Gu Hansheng parked the car and opened the rear door. He first took Jiujiu from Liang Shu, and then looked at her, “Waiting for me in the car.”

Liang Shu didn’t answer.

In the living room, eucalyptus has been prepared long ago.

As early as when Gu Hansheng’s figure appeared in the yard, Qu Yu was waiting at the door. She opened the door for him, but suddenly saw Gu Hansheng come in with a white, tender and young female doll.

Eucalyptus was stunned for a while.

“Sir, this…”

Gu Hansheng didn’t speak or explain, but only asked, “Has the room been cleaned up?”

In fact, it is difficult to arrange a place suitable for children to live in such a short time. Qu Eucalyptus only followed his footsteps and bowed his head and said, “It may not be as expected.”

He didn’t stop, holding Jiujiu and walked upstairs.

Fortunately, the little girl slept more soundly, and she didn’t wake up all the way, so she was exceptionally good.

Gu Hansheng took her back to the master bedroom, and then asked Qu Yuhaosheng to look after her, and then walked quickly toward the door.

When he went out, the woman who was in the car had already got off the ground.

Bright cracks appeared in the sky from time to time, and the howling wind made the branches roar, and the wind was so strong that her long skirt was blowing in the air.

In the dimly lit courtyard, the woman was so thin that she seemed to be blown away by the wind at any time, and the surroundings were too dark.

This feeling made Gu Hansheng feel a fatal familiar panic.

It seemed that the darkness of those black holes would pull her in at any time.

He almost ran towards her.

Before Liang Shu had any reaction, the person had been locked in his arms.

The arms are a little tight.

The woman frowned almost inaudibly.

The heavy rain came at this time.

The big raindrops fell on Liang Shu’s face, accompanied by thunder.

She only felt the cloth of the shirt rubbing her face, and then he was hugged and walked in, not far away, but it was still raining more or less.

Liang Shu thought to himself. Fortunately, one step faster, Jiujiu was not caught in the rain.

After entering the door, Gu Hansheng did not say to put her down, but took her all the way back to the second bedroom next to the master bedroom.

The man was tight all over, and there was an unexplainable emotion spreading over him. His shirt was slightly wet from raindrops, and some places stuck to the skin, revealing tight muscles.

He put her on the sofa, wrinkled his brows, his eyes focused, his fingers pinched her ankles, and his other hand lifted her skirt up.
