Zhang Baochen was a little surprised, he quickly said humbly, “This is because general huo is broad-minded and does not lower himself to the level of people like us. “Besides, we also know that we were wrong back then. Let’s not talk about my mother. A son does not mind his mother’s ugliness and a dog does not mind his family’s poverty. We can only try our best to do what we can to atone for my mother’s sins.”
Huo Guanchen nodded. His expression became more relaxed, and his mood improved. “I know. You guys have been very attentive over the past year and a half.”
As the two of them spoke, they walked to grandfather Huo’s ward together.
Zhang Baochen put down his small leather bag and called the nurse over. He asked grandfather Huo about his recent condition eagerly.
The young nurse saw that Huo Guanchen was here, so she did not dare to be negligent, she said with great concern, “Old Mr. Huo’s condition is not considered good, nor is it considered bad. Our Hospital has also sent the best doctors to take care of old Mr. Huo. During this period of time, old Mr. Huo’s condition has not worsened.”
“It has not worsened? Then is there any possibility of it getting better? !”Zhang Baochen asked anxiously.
He had had a really hard year and a half. Although he wanted to atone for his mother’s sins, more than that, he still hoped that grandfather Huo could wake up from his vegetative state.
Their only hope was grandfather Huo, who was still in a deep sleep.
Once grandfather Huo woke up, their family would have something to look forward to.
However, the young nurse only shook her head and said tactfully,”… I’m not too sure about this, but from the current situation, there are no changes for now.”
Zhang Baochen was extremely disappointed, but he did not ask any more questions. He quietly went to the bathroom to wash his hands and then came out to give grandfather Huo a leg massage.
He had been lying in the hospital for a year and a half. He was getting older, and his muscles were already beginning to atrophy.
Huo Guanchen watched from the side for a while. He felt uncomfortable and said, “Baochen, you’re busy. I’ll be leaving first.”
Zhang Baochen quickly turned around and said, “Take care.”
He was the only one left in the ward to take care of grandfather Huo.
Zhang Baochen looked at grandfather Huo’s slightly atrophied body, he said sadly, “Dad, when will you wake up? With you like this, Wenjie and Wenna have no future… They are still young, unlike me, who is already old and has no hope in this life…”
He sincerely hoped that grandfather Huo would wake up soon and stop Huo Shaoheng from continuing to cause trouble for the Zhang family.
Over the past year and a half, Zhang Wenjie and Zhang Wenna had both been fired from the state organs they worked for, all because they had failed the political review.
Why had there been no problems with the political review in the past?
Now there was a problem with the political review. It was obvious that Huo Shaoheng was the one who had caused the trouble.
Zhang Baochen knew what Huo Shaoheng had done in the past.
He stayed in grandfather Huo’s ward with his head down for the whole afternoon. He only left the military general hospital when it was almost dark.
However, he received a call not long after he got into the car.
“Are You Mr. Zhang Baochen, Mr. Zhang?”
He nodded. “Yes, who is this?”
“I’m Guo Huining, the director of the Legal Department of the Hong Group. I’d like to have a meal with you. I have something to talk to you about. Is it convenient for you?”Guo Huining said politely over the phone, “I know you don’t know me, but I know Huo Shao. I’ve had two meals with him. I’m also very familiar with his childhood friend, Xue Jingjiang. If you don’t believe me, you can call Xue Jingjiang’s number.”
Guo Huining gave out Xue Jingjiang’s phone number.
Zhang Baochen had lived in the Huo family for more than ten years. How could he not know one of Huo Shaoheng’s childhood friends, Xue Jingjiang?
He saw that Guo Huining even knew Xue Jingjiang’s phone number. He was already halfway convinced. He deliberated and said, “Sure, you can set a time.”
Guo huining quickly said, “Tomorrow is Friday. How about tomorrow afternoon? I’ll send a car to pick you up. I’ve booked a place at Chengnan Mansion.”
Chengnan mansion was a newly opened garden villa-style hotel in the imperial capital. Not only was the price extremely high, but it was also a membership system. Most wealthy people would not be able to enter it.
This was the first time Zhang Baochen had heard of the name of this hotel, but when he heard it, he immediately agreed. “Then I’ll see you tomorrow.”
He asked again, “Do You Know My Address?”
Guo huining smiled and said, “Can you send me your address?”
Zhang Baochen shared his address and went home.
When he got home and had dinner, he told his family about the dinner tomorrow.
His son, Zhang Wenjie, and daughter, Zhang Wenna, looked at each other and asked curiously, “Dad, who is this person? Is He a liar?”
Zhang Baochen smiled bitterly and took a sip of the mung bean porridge, saying, “Liar? You think too highly of your father. I have nothing now. Even if the other party is a liar, what can he lie to me about?”
He chuckled, “Maybe I can even get a meal from him. — Chengnan Mansion. It sounds very good.”
Zhang Wenjie and Zhang Wenna looked up information about Chengnan mansion on the internet and said happily, “Dad! You’re right! Even if this person is a swindler, he’s also a swindler who can spend money! It’s not a loss for you to have a meal with him!”
..
The lights were on, and the night in the capital was peaceful and peaceful.
Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng arrived at Mrs. Song’s apartment with a bottle of red wine and rang the doorbell.
Song Jinning opened the door and smiled at Gu Nianzhi. “Nianzhi, you’re finally here. I’ve been wanting to talk to you for the past few days, but I felt like you had just returned and needed to rest more, so I didn’t call.”
Gu nianzhi gave her a big hug and blushed guiltily. “Mrs. Song, I missed you too… but I just got back and was a little tired, so…”
“I know, that’s why I didn’t call you.”Song Jinning said affectionately and took her hand as they entered the house. She sized up Huo Shaoheng who had followed them in. “Shaoheng doesn’t look too bad.”
Huo Shaoheng:”…”
Gu Nianzhi:”…”
Fortunately, Lu Jin came out to help them out. “Nianzhi’s Here!”
The first time he saw his precious daughter, he walked over happily and hugged her. He looked her up and down and kept saying, “You’ve lost weight, you’ve lost weight. Eat more today!”
Gu Nianzhi hugged Lu Jin’s arm and rubbed it against him. She said happily, “Dad, I love it when you say I’ve lost weight!”
Lu Jin laughed heartily. He glanced at Huo Shaoheng from the corner of his eye and said perfunctorily, “Huo Shaoheng’s here too. You talk to your mother, I’ll talk to my daughter.”
Without any further explanation, he pulled gu nianzhi away.
Huo Shaoheng glanced at song jinning, who patted him on the shoulder, suppressing his laughter, he said, “Lu Jin is a very interesting and knowledgeable person. Shaoheng, don’t look so glum. He and his daughter haven’t seen each other for a few days. It’s normal for them to talk together now.”
His elbow was almost broken, wasn’t it?
Huo Shaoheng was used to it. He quietly looked around the room and changed the topic. “Ms. Song, I’m not angry. But why do you have extra luggage? Are the guest rooms occupied?”
Song Jinning was all smiles, “Lu Yuan and Lu Jin’s house is under renovation. They didn’t have a place to stay for a while, so they came to stay with me. Since I’m not home often, they can stay first. It’s more convenient for me to work in the physics department.”
Huo Shaoheng:”…”
Just as he was about to speak, Lu Yuan called out from the kitchen, “Director song, do you still have a chopping board?”
Song jinning quickly replied, “Yes, I’ll help you find it.”
With that, she walked quickly to the kitchen.
Huo Shaoheng looked at the strange harmony and tacit understanding between the two of them. He rubbed his forehead with his hand and walked to the balcony. Looking at the bright and sparkling night sky of the imperial capital, he took out his phone and called Xue Jingjiang.
Xue Jingjiang had just finished his dinner and was in his room looking at some merger and acquisition materials.
Hearing his phone ring, he glanced at it and realized it was Huo Shaoheng’s number. How rare..
He immediately threw away the materials in his hand and opened the phone. He smiled and said, “Huo Shao? Is It really you? My jaw is about to fall to the ground!”
Huo Shaoheng stood on the balcony. His hand was a little itchy and he wanted to smoke a cigarette. However, he thought about it again and his eyes darkened. He twirled his fingers a few times and pushed himself onto the balcony. He asked, “Young Master Xue, have you had dinner?”
“I just had dinner. What’s the matter? You want to have another meal with me? I’ll accompany you!”Xue Jingjiang said cheerfully. “Help me up! I can still eat!”
Huo Shaoheng chuckled and ignored Xue Jingjiang’s banter. He smiled and said, “I want to ask you, what happened after we left the Hong Hotel Today?”
Xue Jingjiang naturally assumed that Gu Nianzhi had already acted coquettishly to Huo Shaoheng and complained about what had happened in the hotel.
He frowned as well, he said, “What happened today was indeed the fault of young master Hong’s fiancée. “She insisted on getting in on the reserved seat that young master Hong had already given away. She asked someone else to give up their seat, but she didn’t say anything. She was acting all high and mighty. Who could stand it?”
Huo shaoheng replied with an “OH”and said lightly, “I see. I was wondering why she was so angry.”
Xue Jingjiang was stunned. “Miss Gu didn’t tell you what happened?”
“No.”Huo Shaoheng shook his head. “She didn’t say a word, so I didn’t ask.”
“Really!”Xue Jingjiang patted his forehead, he smiled and gave her a thumbs up. “Then I’ll have to weigh my sister-in-law again. She’s young, but she’s still so sensible. She doesn’t cause trouble among men’s Bros. she’s indeed a rare good girl!”
Even Guo Huining, who had been immersed in the work world for more than a decade, could not compare to her self-restraint.
Huo Shaoheng curled his lips and praised himself, which was rare. “Of course. Who Did you grow up with?”
Xue Jingjiang, who had been single for ten thousand years, instantly received a 100,000-point critical hit!
“Huo Shao! Look at how smug you are!”Xue Jingjiang could not help but mock, “Let me tell you something. You have your sister-in-law in your hands, but others may not. Otherwise, why would someone like Guo huining think that the three melons from the investment bank are more important than the guests that young master Hong is hospitable to!”
“If she didn’t think that they were more important, why would she give up her seat?”
Huo Shaoheng’s eyes flashed, and he said calmly, “Really? which investment bank are they from? Who are they?”
His tone was normal and his meaning was obvious.
However, Xue Jingjiang could hear the goosebumps on his skin.
“… Huo Shao, what do you mean? Do you want to teach these blind people a lesson?”Xue Jingjiang asked with a smile.
His heart was in a state of shock.
He had never seen Huo Shaoheng use his power to make trouble for others.
Was he going to make an exception? !
Xue Jingjiang was excited.
Huo Shaoheng denied it lightly. “What are you thinking? Am I the kind of person who doesn’t distinguish between personal and professional matters?”
“But someone bullied my woman, and I didn’t even ask, and he was a man? Someone slapped me, so I had to know who it was, right?”
“Actually, this has nothing to do with the investment bank.”Xue Jingjiang thought about it carefully, “The main thing is that Hong’s fiancée is unreliable, but she didn’t seem to recognize miss gu at the beginning. You should be magnanimous and not hit her too hard. It’s not a crime if you don’t know…”
Huo Shaoheng chuckled. “You still haven’t told me who those people at the investment bank were and which investment bank they were from.”
Seeing that Huo Shaoheng was not going to let it go, Xue Jingjiang had no choice but to say, “Actually, this investment bank may not be completely innocent.”
He spoke of the three people. “One is Yi Xinyan, Carlyle’s chief analyst for Pacific Rim. The other is associate director Jia, in charge of underwriting securities. The other is the sister of an old acquaintance of ours.”
Xue Jingjiang paused for a moment before saying,”… Dou aiyan.”
Huo Shaoheng held the phone in his other hand. “It’s her?”
“Yes, so it’s more likely that Guo huining was instigated by someone. Perhaps she really didn’t recognize miss gu at the beginning.”Xue Jingjiang analyzed honestly, “And Dou Aiyan definitely knew who miss gu was.”
Huo Shaoheng nodded. “That makes sense. But why did Dou Aiyan suddenly return to the country? I remember that after her sister and her father’s case, she was sponsored by her aunt to go abroad, right?”
“Yes, she went abroad. Isn’t she back now? Through her uncle’s connections, she became an intern at Carlyle.”Xue Jingjiang ran his fingers through his hair, he frowned. “What do you think? Why would she deliberately target miss gu?”
“What do you think?”Huo Shaoheng finally snorted coldly, his mood fluctuating. “Such an obvious provocation, don’t say you didn’t see it.”
Xue Jingjiang chuckled. “It’s not that I didn’t see it, it’s just that I didn’t think her provocation would be of any use. Think about it, she’s at most like a toad jumping onto someone’s feet. Even if she doesn’t scare people, she still has to disgust them, right?”
“Besides, with the Dou and Yan family’s performance over the past year or two, they can only be described as people with their tails between their legs. Do you think they would be bold enough to deliberately provoke you?”
“So you’re saying that this is Dou Aiyan’s behavior alone?”Huo Shaoheng walked slowly on the balcony, his eyes focused as he muttered, “I don’t think so.”
“First of all, Dou Aiyan is only in her fourth year, yet she can become an intern at Carlyle. Carlyle is not an ordinary company in the international investment world. I don’t think her uncle has such power.”
“Second of all, Dou Aiyan pretended not to know Nianzhi, but it was impossible for Nianzhi not to remember her. She also knew that Gu Nianzhi would remember her, but she still made a move.”
“Third of all, Dou aiyan became an intern, but she didn’t perform well. Instead, she took the opportunity to sow discord and give Nianzhi a hard time. Did she really think that she would make Nianzhi feel bad and that I wouldn’t know who she was? Would I just stand by and do nothing? As the daughter of the former Prime Minister Dou, she doesn’t even have this little bit of political sensitivity?”
“Fourth, if she had considered all of these situations, but she still did it, and it wasn’t because she suddenly lost her mind, then there must be someone else behind her.”
Huo Shaoheng finally came to a conclusion.”… This isn’t over yet. We can wait and see.”
