Song Jinning was a woman after all, so she knew what she was doing.
She smiled and said, “Nianzhi said she’ll have as many as she wants. I Won’t rush them.”
Lu Jin took her seriously. “But you said you wanted grandchildren just now? Why aren’t you rushing them now?”
Gu Nianzhi pursed her lips and was about to smooth things over for song jinning, unexpectedly, song Jinning explained with a straight face, “I was just being polite. The main point is that I’m old enough to have a grandchild. I don’t have to have a grandchild, nor do I have any intention of hastening the birth process.”
Lu Jin understood and nodded. “Yes, Ms. Song is very serious. I misunderstood.”
Song Jinning saw that Lu Jin had corrected his mistake and had a better impression of him.
Seeing that Gu Nianzhi was still driving silently in front, she was worried that she would be unhappy, she said guiltily, “Nianzhi, don’t overthink it. I really didn’t mean to hasten the birth.”. Actually, you’re only 20 years old and have just started your career. You Don’t have that much time to have children. I understand. Besides, I’m also so busy. I probably only have time to visit my grandson on the weekends. I don’t have time to take care of your children.”
Gu Nianzhi thought to herself, Mrs. Song had never even taken care of her own son. It was her mother-in-law, Xie Ziyan, who had personally raised Huo Shaoheng. How could she have time to take care of her grandson?
She had never counted on it, but she had no plans to have a child in the near future..
Gu Nianzhi gripped the steering wheel tightly and smiled sheepishly. “Mrs. Song, I Know You’re joking. But to be honest, having a child is indeed taking too much time…”
“Why is it taking too much time?”Lu Jin whispered. “Actually, I’m going to make a fertilized egg and find a surrogate…”
Gu Nianzhi cast a sidelong glance at him. Lu Jin immediately pursed his lips and did not dare to say another word.
After a while.., gu nianzhi slowly said, “A baby is definitely going to be born. It’s impossible not to have one. But only one, no more. Also, I don’t want to ‘make a fertilized egg’or ‘find a surrogate.’”
“I want to have a child. I want to have one myself.”
Lu Jin was restless. He thought Gu Nianzhi was angry and racked his brain to make her happy.
“Nianzhi, Dad doesn’t want to hasten the birth. Actually, you can have as many children as you want. It doesn’t matter if you don’t have one.”Lu Jin reflected on himself, “Dad wants you to have your own family and children. Don’t be like dad and spend your whole life alone.”
Gu Nianzhi’s eyes reddened immediately. She quickly said, “Dad, I know. You’re doing fine. If I could be like you, I’d wake up laughing even in my dreams.”
“What’s So Good About Me?”Lu Jin looked at himself in confusion. “I’ve never been married, not even to my own children…”
Gu Nianzhi was speechless again. She quickly changed the topic. “Dad, you know high-energy physics! I fell asleep when I read physics books.”
Song Jinning was interested in this topic and immediately started talking to Lu Jin again. She said, “Nianzhi is so smart. It would be a shame if she didn’t study physics and law. I’ve been trying to persuade her to study high-energy physics with me, but she just wouldn’t agree.”
Lu Jin had nothing in common with song jinning again, he immediately said, “That won’t do. Nianzhi was born to study law. Her biological mother is a very famous lawyer. I’m very happy that she inherited her mother’s legal talent.”
“Huh? Don’t you want her to inherit your mantle and learn physics from you?”Song Jinning was surprised, but also curious about Gu Nianzhi’s biological mother. “What about Nianzhi’s mother? Why didn’t she come with you?”
Huo Shaoheng, of course, had never mentioned Qin Suwen to Song Jinning.
Song Jinning had no idea that Gu Nianzhi’s biological mother was an unspeakable taboo for Lu Jin.
Gu Nianzhi glanced worriedly at Lu Jin. As expected, his expression had darkened. He pursed his lips tightly and looked stubbornly out the window, but did not speak.
Gu Nianzhi had no choice but to say vaguely and tactfully, “Mrs. Song, it’s a long story. But My dad doesn’t want to talk about it, so please bear with me.”
Song Jinning understood that she was not a gossipy person, so she immediately apologized, “I’m sorry, Nianzhi. Mr. Lu, I shouldn’t have asked this question.”
Lu Jin came back to his senses and said with a smile, “It’s good to know one’s mistakes and be able to correct them.”
Both he and song Jinning had admitted their mistakes once, and their understanding of each other had deepened.
Gu Nianzhi listened to their conversation and smiled slightly. She drove faster and faster.
It didn’t take long for her to arrive at the Huo family’s mansion in the military compound.
There was already a car parked in front of the carved iron gate. Judging from the license plate, it was the special operations forces car.
This must be the car Huo Guanyuan was in.
Gu Nianzhi parked the car and got out. She asked the driver of the car, “May I ask when colonel commandant Huo arrived?”
The driver stood upright beside the car like he was standing guard. He quickly said, “Colonel commandant Huo just arrived. He just went in.”
He knew Gu Nianzhi and was very respectful to her.
Gu Nianzhi smiled and nodded. “Thank you.”
She turned to Lu Jin and song Jinning, who had just gotten out of the car. “Let’s go in.”
Song Jinning had lived here for more than 30 years. Although she had been ill for more than a decade, she was still very familiar with this place.
Gu Nianzhi had only been here a few times, but she had a good memory and had a deep impression of this place. Therefore, she led Lu Jin in with familiarity.
The soldier standing guard at the Huo family’s entrance recognized Gu Nianzhi and song jinning, but not Lu Jin.
When they walked over, he reached out to stop them and asked, “May I ask who this gentleman is? Do you have a pass?”
Gu nianzhi smiled and said, “This gentleman is my father. He’s here to meet my fiancé’s father.”
The soldier standing guard thought silently for a moment before figuring out the relationship between these relatives.
He retracted his hand and saluted Gu Nianzhi. “Lawyer Gu, please come in.”
Gu Nianzhi nodded in return. “Thank you.”
The three of them walked through the carved iron gate at the entrance of the courtyard and along the bluestone path to the main house of the Huo residence.
Lu Jin looked around and shook his head. “The houses here don’t have the grandeur of the He family.”
Gu Nianzhi thought to herself, how could they compare?
The He family was like an emperor in the opposite world. They were the absolute number one family.
The Huo family, on the other hand, had a relatively ordinary status in the upper echelons.
If it weren’t for Huo Shaoheng, a rising star who had been specially groomed by General Ji, the Huo family would probably be in decline with just Huo Xuenong and Huo Guanchen.
Song jinning glanced at Lu Jin. She knew that things in the other world weren’t that simple, but these weren’t things that an educated person like her could ask. She pretended not to hear anything and walked up the stairs with Lu Jin.
Gu Nianzhi led the way.
Pushing open the door, Gu Nianzhi saw Huo Guanyuan’s tall figure standing in the middle of the living room with his back to the door.
In the slightly sunken middle of the living room, an l-shaped navy blue sofa circled the middle of the living room. Another tall man stood in front of the sofa and looked at the person in front of him in surprise.
The man standing in front of the sofa was, of course, Huo Guanchen.
His eyes widened as he watched the man walk in with steady steps.
“… Big… Big Brother? !”He took a few quick steps forward and was about to shake Huo Guanyuan’s hand when he said in pleasant surprise, “You’re Really My Big Brother? ! You’re still alive? !”
“I’m alive. I must have disappointed you, right?”Huo Guanyuan put one hand behind his back. He had no intention of shaking Huo Guanchen’s hand, but his fist was clenched tightly behind his back.
The scenes that Huo Shaoheng had told him in the other world appeared in his mind, and the expression on his face could not help but grow colder.
