Hello, Mr. Major General Chapter 1117

Chapter 1117 - Because She Loves Him

Cai Songyin considered her answer. The post she had requested the Weibo blogger to write was one mostly targeting Gu Nianzi’s shamelessness. In the planned article, Huo Shaoheng would have been portrayed in a positive light – a man who’d resisted temptation. It would have slandered Gu Nianzhi, but been even-handed in its portrayal of him.

Cai Songyin wanted to have her daughter marry Huo Shaoheng, so she certainly wasn’t aiming to ruin his reputation.

Yet Huo Shaoheng had presented her with a summary of an article that clearly smeared Gu Nianzhi and discreetly slandered Huo Shaoheng. It was meant to hurt Huo Shaoheng even more, destroying his reputation completely to make it impossible for him to ever build up a career again.

Cai Singyin would never think of doing such a thing.

She smiled wryly as she said, “I know that Major General Huo has selective tastes, and I originally had high hopes for you. That’s why I wracked my brain in hopes that you would marry my Little Darling. I treated you like my potential son-in-law. Why on earth would I use such things against you? What would then happen to my daughter if your reputation was destroyed?”

Huo Shaoheng thought it over quietly. It sounded fairly plausible.

Cai Songyin was more confident, and more collected in her mannerisms than Tan Dongbang. Her words seemed far more rational.

She thought about how Huo Shaoheng had already broken up with Gu Nianzhi. Would it matter if she revealed the other thing as well?

Cai Songyin felt somewhat cold with fright at the sight of Huo Shaoheng’s mask of calm.

She fearfully revealed the name of the PR manager in her entertainment company, as she told Huo Shaoheng, “Go find him and ask him for the summary I gave him. I asked him to find an author of online articles to write such an article for me and to then make sure it was well-publicized. You know that I don’t like Gu Nianzhi, and I didn’t want her to continue dragging you down. So I’ve continuously targeted her all this time. But the article you just handed to me is targeting you, as well as her. In fact, it looks like it might even hurt you more. I’m not fool enough to harm my interests in the process of attacking an enemy. I’m a businesswoman, and businesswomen are careful about maintaining harmony to create a fortune.”

Huo Shaoheng asked, “This is what you call maintaining harmony to create fortune?”

He didn’t feel any better knowing Cai Songyin hadn’t intended to target him and was only after Gu Nianzhi.

In contrast, he was sent into a worse mood than before.

Due to the unique nature of his work, he had never cared about what other people thought of him.

As long as he believed an action was right, he would commit to doing it.

If Cai Songyin had looked down on him and targeted him as a result, he would certainly not have minded it at all.

Instead, Cai Songyin targeted Gu Nianzhi. Plus aside from Cai Songyin, it was very likely that many others in her social circle had thought of the same thing as well.

They all believed that Gu Nianzhi wasn’t worthy of him. Even if they now knew she wasn’t an orphaned girl, and that she had an incredible father and family background, that first false impression meant they would still instinctively look down on her. They believed that Huo Shaoheng was out of her league.

Gu Nianzhi was so intelligent and perceptive, she must have known more about the likelihood of such outcomes than he had?

She had still chosen to be with him.

For the first time ever, Huo Shaoheng felt that he had wronged Gu Nianzhi.

He was domineering and decisive, not allowing any hesitation. He controlled his feelings and was able to remain calm, only because of the knowledge that she loved him.

Huo Shaoheng remained seated, and although his face did not move, the corner of his heart that belonged to Gu Nianzhi had already fallen into complete chaos.

Cai Songyin had revealed everything in hopes she would earn Huo Shaoheng’s forgiveness. She hoped that he would understand that she had not colluded with Hong Kangquan. As for Tan Dongbang, she had long cut off all ties to him.

“Major General Huo, I truly had no knowledge that Hong Kangquan was colluding with the Japanese.” Cai Songyin said, beginning to plead her case. “I’ve already confessed everything that I could to you, will you be merciful enough to go light on my punishment?”

Huo Shaoheng looked at the name of Cai Songyin’s entertainment company’s PR manager. He mused aloud, “I’ll investigate your PR manager. If you haven’t lied, then there must be something wrong with your PR manager.”

Cai Songyin’s mouth dropped open and didn’t close for a long time.

Huo Shaoheng walked out of Cai Songyin’s interrogation room and immediately requested an arrest warrant for the PR manager of Cai Songyin’s entertainment company.

Yin Shixiong and law enforcement agents arrived at Cai Songyin’s company, only to learn that the PR manager had resigned just the day before and that his whereabouts were unknown.

Of course, ‘whereabouts unknown’ tended to apply only to normal people. For people like Huo Shaoheng and his men, no one’s whereabouts were truly considered unknown unless they were dead.

“Huo Shao, that person resigned yesterday. It’s starting to look as if there’s a problem,” Yin Shixiong said, reporting to Huo Shaoheng over the phone. “Do we need a national arrest warrant?”

Huo Shaoheng considered it. “Directly freeze his bank and credit cards. We’ll see how long he can run without any money.”

“Roger, Chief!” Yin Shixiong grinned, acknowledging his new orders. He immediately headed to the bank to request a freeze.

They brought the court warrants directly to the bank.

“You want us to freeze his accounts?” The bank’s senior accounts manager looked at the search warrant and arrest warrant presented to him. He hesitated, and asked, “But he is our bank’s major client. Is it possible there’s been some kind of a mistake?”

Yin Shixiong knocked on the desk and followed up on the new information smoothly. “Major client? How major could he be?”

Yin Shixiong had already conducted an investigation. The PR manager of Cai Songyin’s entertainment company was a university graduate from a tiny city. He was intelligent and had been capable, so he was swiftly promoted. He was earning about 300 000 RMB a year.

How wealthy could such a person be?

Knowing that, when the bank’s major account manager showed Yin Shixiong the man’s account balance, his eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets at the last transfer.

“How many zeroes are there? I almost can’t count them all,” Yin Shixiong joked. “9 million and how much?”

The amount was actually three times the size of Yin Shixiong’s own salary.

This was a prime example of being guilty of having an immense wealth of unknown origin.

“Right, it’s almost 10 billion.” The bank’s major account manager grinned brightly. “So do you want to check again? Maybe you’ve got the wrong person?”

“I didn’t get it wrong, it’s him. Give me a copy of his detailed bank account statement, starting from the day the 9 million was transferred into his bank account.” Yin Shixiong slapped the search warrant and arrest warrant into the hands of the bank’s major accounts manager. “Hurry up and freeze his bank account and credit cards. Do not get in the way of our arrest.”

Yin Shixiong spoke with finality and gravity. The bank’s major accounts manager didn’t dare to joke around with him anymore. He quickly waved his hand to direct his subordinates to freeze the man’s bank account and credit cards.

In less than half an hour after the freeze was completed, an ATM at a bank branch in the Imperial Capital sounded an alarm.

Someone was attempting to withdraw funds from the newly frozen bank account at that ATM!

Yin Shixiong quickly pulled up the surveillance camera for the ATM, discovering that it was indeed the PR manager who was trying to withdraw money.

“XX Branch? This is the Special Operations Forces, I need your assistance on my operation right now.” Yin Shixiong quickly dispatched police officers making rounds near the ATM to make the arrest.

Seeing as Yin Shixiong held the arrest warrant, he asked those police officers to make the arrest while he gathered his own men and then drove to the rendezvous point.

Gu Nianzhi had no idea how to get the aloof and handsome Major General to fall in love with her. His eyes were dark and serious. “…Seduce me. If you can do it, I’m yours.” Gu Nianzhi: “!!!”
