After the news of Gu Nianzhi inviting her undergraduate classmates to dinner before her wedding spread, her graduate students gathered in twos and threes and asked Ma Qiqi if Gu Nianzhi should invite them as well.
Gu Nianzhi’s master’s degree was in B University’s law department, and her tutor was he zhichu, the once famous tenured professor of law at Harvard University.
Unfortunately, he zhichu had already resigned from all his teaching positions, and no one knew where he had gone.
Gu Nianzhi’s master’s degree had only taken a year to complete all the credits and graduate. Now that two years had passed, she was almost successful.
And they had only just graduated from their master’s.
Because of this, Gu Nianzhi wasn’t familiar with her fellow students in the master’s class, and Ma Qiqi was the only one who had the best relationship with her. She couldn’t be compared to her undergraduate classmates at all.
Gu Nianzhi thought about it and complained to Huo Shaoheng after work that night, “Huo Shao, why don’t you pick out my graduate students too? Otherwise, I can make a few more friends.”
Huo Shaoheng sat on the sofa and read his documents. Next to him was an old lamp that had a postmodern feel to it. The light was bright and soft, with a slight tinge of yellow.

The slanted light only reflected his profile, like a knife cutting into an ink painting. It was just right, without a single extra line.
A shadow was left beside the sofa. It was his muscular figure.
He crossed his legs and flipped through a page of the document as if nothing had happened. He said calmly, “You were underage when you were an undergraduate.”
He did not finish his sentence, but Gu Nianzhi understood it instantly.
She glared at Huo Shaoheng for a while, then walked to his side and half-knelt. She tugged at his sleeve and said righteously, “Even if I’m already an adult, you have to take care of me, care for me, and be good to me as before!”
She stuck out her little tongue and licked her dry lips. “Don’t leave me alone!”
Huo Shaoheng looked up slightly and sized her up without batting an eyelid. He reached out and grabbed her soft, shell-pink earlobe. “You Want Me to leave you alone? HMM?”
“… HMM!”Gu Nianzhi nodded unwillingly and held onto Huo Shaoheng’s hand that was holding onto her earlobe. “Stop rubbing it, it’s Itchy.”
Huo Shaoheng pursed his lips into a smile and leaned over to kiss her lips. “Then you have to be obedient.”
“When have I not been obedient?”Gu Nianzhi pouted and was about to roll her eyes.
Huo Shaoheng moved closer to her ear and said in a deep voice,”… you weren’t obedient last night…”
Gu Nianzhi almost buried her face in his chest. She rubbed against his chest and mumbled,”… that’s because you’ve gone too far!”
..
Two weeks passed in the blink of an eye.
Tomorrow was Saturday, and it was time for Gu Nianzhi to treat.
She woke up early in the morning and started to get dressed.
She had to do some essential oil treatment on all of her skin. She wrapped her body in a soft white towel and waited for half an hour before she washed it again. Finally, she applied Lu Jin’s special body lotion.
Her hair had only been blown dry, and there was a thin layer of makeup on her face. The extremely thin foundation was extremely compatible with her skin color, and it was almost impossible to see her makeup.
She chose a set of camouflage-colored casual pants. It looked a little like a hunting suit, and there were two big pockets on her legs.
She wore comfortable running shoes. She didn’t look like she was going to show off at the class reunion. Instead, she looked like she was going to participate in a special training.
Fortunately, she was still young. Even the Jing hairpin dress was still as breathtaking.
Gu Nianzhi put on the backpack that Lu Jin had specially made for her and came out of the house with her phone. She saw Huo Shaoheng waiting for her at the door.
“Huo Shao, you look so handsome today!”Gu Nianzhi’s eyes sparkled as she walked up to him.
Huo Shaoheng leaned over and kissed her face very naturally. “You’re very pretty too.”
Gu Nianzhi smiled.
It was rare to be complimented by Huo Shaoheng.
The two of them got into the car and drove to the Jun Hao hotel.
This place was outside the capital’s fifth ring road, so it took up a lot of space. The hotel’s exterior was pretty good, but its internal management was mediocre.
Fortunately, there was food to supplement it. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been able to gain a foothold in the capital, which was extremely expensive.
Gu Nianzhi received a call from green tea fang while she was still on the road.
“Nianzhi! Are you here yet? ! Our foreign classmates have already arrived!”
“We’re almost there.”Gu Nianzhi looked out of the car window. “I can already see the hotel. Where are you guys?”
“We’re outside the main entrance to welcome the host!”Little Temptress’s voice was loud and cheerful as ever.
Gu Nianzhi couldn’t help smiling. “I’ll be right there.”
Huo Shaoheng stepped on the accelerator, and the car immediately sped up.
They arrived at the hotel entrance in less than five minutes.
Huo Shaoheng got out of the car first and went around to the other side of the car to open the door. Gu Nianzhi was like a queen as she valiantly got out of the car.
Huo Shaoheng held her hand and smiled at the crowd standing on the steps.
Green Tea Fang, Little Temptress, and Lady Cao ran over first.
“Nianzhi!”
Gu Nianzhi let go of Huo Shaoheng and hugged the three of them happily.
“Green Tea Fang! Little Temptress! Lady Cao! I missed you guys so much!”
Following that, the students standing on the steps also came down in twos and threes and shook hands with Gu Nianzhi to congratulate her on her upcoming marriage.
Huo Shaoheng stood by the side and nodded from time to time, playing the role of “Family member.”.
Everyone had just finished their introductions when a big red Porsche sports car drove over from the hotel entrance.
In the sports car Sat Mei Xiawen and his girlfriend.
Both of them saw Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng surrounded by a group of people, and their eyes darkened at the same time.
Just then, Huo Shaoheng’s phone suddenly rang.
He took a step to the side and took out his phone to listen. He turned to Gu Nianzhi and said, “I have something to do, I have to go back first.”
As he spoke, he nodded at Gu Nianzhi’s classmates. “Thank you all for coming. You can order whatever you want to eat later. Please don’t stand on ceremony. Excuse me.”
He put away his phone and quickly got into the car. He started the engine and drove out of the hotel in the blink of an eye.
Mei Xiawen and his girlfriend had just gotten out of the car.
When he saw Huo Shaoheng driving away, Mei Xiawen was slightly surprised. “Why isn’t Nianzhi’s fiancé eating with us?”
His girlfriend got out of the car with a smile on her face. She glanced at the back of Huo Shaoheng’s car and said meaningfully, “He might have a mission… who would have the time to deal with students like you who have just graduated…”
Mei Xiawen frowned and said to himself, “I thought he treated nianzhi well…”
He didn’t even want to attend the family reunion, and Gu Nianzhi was the one who was treating him. He didn’t even want to give her face.
His girlfriend stood beside him with her back straight, her voice was slightly cold. “Everyone saw him propose in Russia in front of the whole world with a big diamond ring. In fact, it was all for show. A marriage that doesn’t match up to the status of marriage doesn’t end well.”
Mei Xiawen glanced at her and his gaze swept past her bulging belly. He smiled and said, “We match up to each other… do you want our children to be born out of wedlock?”
His girlfriend smiled and glared at him. “It doesn’t look good in a wedding dress when you’re pregnant. We can register first and hold the wedding after the children are born.”
“Okay, we’ll listen to you.”Mei Xiawen felt that Gu Nianzhi and the others were looking at him. He immediately grabbed her hand and kissed it on the lips.
Gu Nianzhi was stunned. She couldn’t believe her eyes.
The graceful woman standing next to Mei Xiawen was wearing a black-and-white thousand bird plaid dress.
The dress fitted her well and made her slightly protruding belly stand out.
Gu Nianzhi looked away from the woman’s slightly protruding belly and saw her smiling face. Her hand tightened.
How could it be Yi Xinyan?
She was pregnant?
