The usual laughter in the palace house was gone, Ye Ningbai lowered his head and stroked Gong Ruixuan's hair, then dragged his tired body upstairs.When she passed by Gong Qiming's side, her heart was no longer disturbed.

Gong Ruixuan pursed her lips, ran back to her room, and closed the door with a bang.The servants at home lowered their heads and were busy with their work. Although they didn't know what had happened recently, they knew that something bad had happened by looking at the atmosphere of Gong Qiming and the others.

Soon the living room was empty, Gong Qiming put his body weight on the sofa behind, and closed his tired eyes.In just a few days, the Gong family became fragmented. He knew that he was responsible, and for the first time Gong Qiming felt that he was powerless.

The TV was turned on by Gong Qiming, and only then did the empty palace house make a little noise.The latest TV drama was showing on the TV, and the picture was frozen with a family enjoying a meal together. The familiar scene hurt Gong Qiming's eyes.He pressed the off button and threw the remote control on the sofa.

"Gong...Mr. Gong." The servant in charge of the three meals hesitated and said, "I see Madam's complexion is not very good, do you want to make a big bone or something tonight?"

The servant's words awakened Gong Qiming, Ye Ningbai had just been discharged from the hospital, her body must still be extremely weak.He was depressed and irritable at this moment, and Ye Ningbai also lost his own flesh and blood, so why not feel uncomfortable?At this moment, she must be most in need of comfort, but Ye Ningbai's attitude towards her became more and more indifferent, and Gong Qiming suddenly didn't know what to do.

"Let's stew the big bone soup, add more nourishing ingredients, I'll go to the kitchen to cook it later." Gong Qiming rubbed his temples and said tiredly.

The servant got the instructions, turned around and went to the kitchen to prepare, leaving Gong Qiming alone on the sofa staring at the black screen TV.

Ye Ningbai opened the door, and the familiar structure of the house came into her eyes. She had only walked for two days, but it seemed that centuries had passed.The window opened a small crack, the wind came in through the gap, and the curtains moved with the wind.Ye Ningbai took a cold look, let the window open and lay down on the bed.

The exhaustion of the mind and the sleepiness of the body enveloped Ye Ningbai, but she didn't feel sleepy at all, and she opened her empty eyes in a daze.Song Jingli's vicious face seemed to be right in front of her eyes, and the scene of that day was played back again and again before her eyes.

"Mom! Help me! I'm so scared!" Whenever she closed her eyes, she could hear her unborn child crying for help.

Two lines of clear tears flowed down Ye Ningbai's cheeks, dripped on the pillow and slowly fainted.

It was painful to breathe at this moment, Ye Ningbai turned over and buried her face in the quilt.What did she do wrong? God wants to punish her like this.Before he knew it, Ye Ningbai fell asleep with his brows furrowed, as if he had seen something bad happen.

After sitting for a while, Gong Qiming got up and went to the kitchen. The ingredients were basically prepared. When the servant saw Gong Qiming coming, he explained a few precautions, and then left the kitchen.

Gong Qiming handles the ingredients swiftly, from processing to serving, every step he takes is careful and conscientious.The big bone soup was boiling in the pot, and Gong Qiming stood aside in a daze.

The sky outside the window was already dark at this time, and the shadow of the moon could be vaguely seen.Just like Gong Qiming's mood at the moment, it was gloomy.The servants will do the chores later, Gong Qiming pulled away the chairs from the dining table and glanced at the clock.

Usually at this time, Father Gong always waits early at the dining table or on the sofa, and Gong Ruixuan always clings to him.Small details that had never been noticed in the past have sprung up like mushrooms after rain.

But now, Gong Ruixuan is full of hostility towards him, and his father passed away, even Ye Ningbai, who has always loved her deeply and stood by her side, is full of resistance to him.But he still wanted to prepare for the palace father's funeral without telling his family. He didn't dare to tell Ye Ningbai, and he didn't dare to say that Ye Ningbai always regarded the palace father as his biological father, and Gong Qiming couldn't bear to see her again. Sadness and despair in the eyes.

The servants brought the food to the table one after another, but there were four pairs of bowls and chopsticks.Gong Qiming was stunned for a moment, but in the end he still didn't let anyone withdraw.After all, Gong Ruixuan was still a child, when he arrived at the restaurant, he ran to the dining room, sat on his chair and waited for Ye Ningbai, but showed a clear alienation towards Gong Qiming.

Gong Qiming thought that Ye Ningbai was probably still angry with him, so he went to Ye Ningbai's room.The door was gently opened, Gong Qiming saw Ye Ningbai curled up on the bed, and his heart ached.

Gong Qiming hesitated for a moment, but just covered her with the quilt and retreated.After so many days, Ye Ningbai probably hasn't had a good night's sleep.

Ye Ningbai slept lightly with her eyes closed, when she suddenly heard a rustling sound coming from the room, she opened her heavy eyelids, and was startled when she saw the familiar figure from behind.The lights in the room were not turned on, and it was already a little dark at this time, and my stomach gurgled twice.Only then did he realize that Gong Qiming had come to ask him to eat, so he sat up.

"Sleep a little longer..." Gong Qiming saw Ye Ningbai woke up, before he finished speaking, Ye Ningbai brushed past him.

Gong Qiming sighed, and followed Ye Ningbai downstairs.Seeing Ye Ningbai come down, Gong Ruixuan picked up the chopsticks and shoveled the rice into his mouth.Seeing this, Gong Qiming didn't reprimand him, but just told him to eat slowly so as not to choke.

Ye Ningbai couldn't help being a little surprised seeing Gongfu still doing nothing, and what made Ye Ningbai even more surprised was that Gong Qiming also sat down and started eating.The tutoring of the Gong family can also be regarded as strict, usually only the elders are seated for everyone to eat, what happened today?
Ye Ningbai had a bad premonition in her heart, but she didn't dare to ask, and she didn't know how to speak.

"Today, Mr. Gong made big bone soup specially, Madam, let's try it while it's hot." Seeing that Ye Ningbai had been delaying moving his chopsticks and the atmosphere at the table was so awkward, the servant hurriedly said.

Hearing this, Gong Qiming raised his head to look at Ye Ningbai, Ye Ningbai avoided Gong Qiming's sight, and lowered his head to eat the vegetables in front of him.Seeing this, the servant kept silent.

"Drink some to replenish your body." Gong Qiming filled a bowl of bone broth for Ye Ningbai and placed it in front of her.

Ye Ningbai's eyes were a little red, she resisted the urge to cry, and swallowed the vegetables in the bowl.The dishes that she would always praise in the past are tasteless to her now. Ye Ningbai vaguely remembers that before Gong Qiming lost his memory, he also boiled bone soup for himself. .

Gong Ruixuan was exceptionally obedient today, eating the food in his bowl without saying a word, neither picky eaters nor losing his temper.Even though eating should be the busiest time at home, it was extremely deserted at this time, and even the footsteps of the servants could be heard clearly.

"I'm full." Ye Ningbai said coldly before putting down the bowl and chopsticks after taking two bites.

There was more than half a bowl of rice left in the bowl in front of her, and she didn't take a bite of the bone soup that Gong Qiming was cooking.There seemed to be a monster that could eat people in the restaurant, Ye Ningbai just wanted to go back to the room and take it alone.

"Ruixuan, remember to wash your hands after meals and go to bed early at night." Ye Ningbai said softly to her son.

Gong Ruixuan nodded sensiblely, put down the clean dishes and went back to her room.Ye Ningbai didn't want to be in the same room with Gong Qiming, so she also turned and left.

"Ning Bai, can we sit down and have a good talk?" Gong Qiming looked at Ye Ningbai's decisive figure and sighed.

"Gong Qiming, there is nothing more to talk about between us." Ye Ningbai stopped, turned to look at Gong Qiming coldly and said.

The big bone soup on the table was still steaming, as if it had just been served.The Gong family is still deserted and depressing.

Gong Qiming has also reflected on his behavior in the past few days. If he hadn't treated Ye Ningbai and Luo Ziran's affairs too extreme, perhaps these tragedies would not have happened.When alone, Gong Qiming would often think of Ye Ningbai who stalked and followed him when he first came out of the army, and recovered his true identity.

During this period of time, he felt very cordial to everything that the Gong family brought to him. Blood ties were stronger than water. He owed too much to the palace father, his son and Ye Ningbai.Ye Ningbai has treated her coldly since the child was gone, she must be very disappointed in him.

At night, Ye Ningbai was lying on her side on the bed with her eyes closed, when suddenly there was a light knock on the door.As if sensing the other party's cautiousness, Ye Ningbai guessed the identity of the person who came, so she didn't answer.

Gong Qiming sighed, pushed open the door, and met a pair of emotionless eyes.

"Eat so little at night, don't break your body. Your favorite peach..." Gong Qiming knew that Ye Ningbai was awake, so he said to himself while holding the plate.

Ye Ningbai still didn't reply to Gong Qiming, as if he wasn't in the room.

"I'm sorry." Gong Qiming's voice trembled slightly, "We will have another child."

Gong Qiming said cautiously, for fear of making Ye Ningbai unhappy.As everyone knows, no matter what Gong Qiming does, Ye Ningbai will no longer have any emotional ups and downs.

The two of them each had their own thoughts in their hearts, and neither of them spoke for a while.Just when Gong Qiming was hesitating whether to speak out to comfort her, Ye Ningbai's body moved, and she picked up small pieces of peaches and ate them.Gong Qiming was overjoyed, and hurriedly sat down beside Ye Ningbai in two steps.

Although Ye Ningbai didn't say anything, her reaction showed that she had listened to what she said, and she still loved her.Ye Ningbai didn't think so. Just now what Gong Qiming said was right, she couldn't torment herself any more. As for the child, although her heart hurts, nothing will change in the end, and she and Gong Qiming will never have any more love. later.

Ye Ningbai no longer feels much when eating juicy peaches in Ye Ningbai's mouth, she put the empty plate back to its original place, leaned back on the bed, closed her eyes, and blocked Gong Qiming's sight.
