Gu Nianzhi's entire body was cold, and her back was covered in cold sweat. Her mind was blank, just like a patient with severe hypoglycemia. Her vision was so dark that she couldn't see the big screen clearly.
She blinked her eyes, and a wave of hot air assaulted her, wrapping her up. Her consciousness was brought back by this wave of hot air.
She looked down at the front of her and saw Reinitz's slender and strong fingers holding the military jacket on her shoulders.
…
In the dead of night, He Zhichu was still working in front of the computer.
Since he had decided to stay, there were too many things he had to do.
As for the He family in South America, since Wen Shouyi had left, he had to personally handle all the big and small matters.
He wasn't used to such trivial matters, so he worked patiently for a while, but still couldn't help but feel a headache coming on. He thought he should find a few more capable assistants or secretaries …
When the text notification sounded on his phone, He Zhichu had just sent out a few emails.
This text notification ringtone was the highest level on his phone.
He Zhichu took the phone and saw the notification on the phone: Watch TV.
He Zhichu was speechless.
He rarely watched TV, and he would rather drink red wine alone than turn on the TV when he had free time.
However, since this special message reminded him to watch TV, he walked to the living room and picked up the remote control to turn on the TV.
"… What do you think caused the aurora this time? After all, auroras only existed in the north and south poles … "
Almost all the TV channels were talking about this incident: Aurora appeared over C City at around nine o 'clock that night.
He Zhichu's expression froze slightly. He threw the remote control away and returned to his computer. He opened the web browser and found that the Internet was also flooded with news about this.
He entered a website and went to check it out.
It wasn't done by the United States.
It probably wasn't done by the Huaxia Empire either. They didn't have this technology yet.
He Zhichu returned to the news and carefully read a detailed report. He then opened the website of the news website to find the specific location of the incident.
When he saw the familiar crossroads in C City, He Zhichu's shimmering almond-shaped eyes were solemn and cold.
He couldn't believe it. He really couldn't believe it. Did it really have something to do with that person?!
Why did he do this?!
He Zhichu's heart tightened. He grabbed the phone and dialed Gu Nianzhi's number.
…
Gu Nianzhi was wearing Reinitz's military uniform and holding a cup of hot cocoa. She stood near the golden velvet curtains because she was closer to the air conditioner vent, so it was warmer.
It was early spring, and the nights in the Imperial Capital were still very cold. The central air conditioner was blowing warm air.
Just as she took a sip of hot cocoa, she heard the sound of a phone call in her Bluetooth headset.
She used voice to turn on the phone and answer the call.
It was He Zhichu's voice. It was his usual cool and indifferent voice, but there was a hint of imperceptible nervousness.
"Nianzhi, where are you?"
In times of fear, people would develop a strong attachment to familiar things.
When Gu Nianzhi heard He Zhichu's familiar voice, it was like a drowning person grabbing onto a piece of driftwood. She felt that He Zhichu was extremely familiar. In a hoarse voice, she said, "I'm at the Senate building. I want to go home."
Her voice involuntarily carried a tinge of grievance, like a child acting spoiled to her parent.
Reinitz's hand paused. He gently turned his head away and looked out the window.
He couldn't believe that when he heard Gu Nianzhi's voice on the phone, he actually felt a moment of regret. Gu Nianzhi wasn't acting spoiled to him …
He Zhichu immediately said, "Come out. I'll take you home."
However, when he took the car keys out, He Zhichu asked again, "Where's Huo Shao? Isn't he with you? "
Gu Nianzhi's safety should be fully under Huo Shaoheng's responsibility now.
Gu Nianzhi sniffled and quickly glanced at Reinitz. Seeing that he was looking elsewhere, she took out her phone and sent He Zhichu a text.
[Nianzi Is Here]: He's not here.
The subtext was that he went on a mission …
He Zhichu saw the text and cursed in his heart before getting out of the elevator.
…
Gu Nianzhi wanted to leave early. She looked around and saw that Speaker Long was not far from her. She quickly took off Reinitz's military jacket and put it back in his hands. She then walked over to Speaker Long and said, "Speaker Long, I'm not feeling well. I'll go back first."
Speaker Long originally planned to have a meeting with his trusted subordinates after the banquet to discuss today's situation. He wanted Gu Nianzhi to participate as well.
However, when he looked up and saw Gu Nianzhi's pale face, Speaker Long immediately changed his mind and asked with concern, "Where are you not feeling well? Did you catch a cold? "
Gu Nianzhi reluctantly nodded and said in a low voice, "… I think I caught a cold last night. I'll go back and sleep. I'll be fine tomorrow."
"It's okay. Go back and rest well. If you still don't feel well tomorrow, rest at home. " Speaker Long felt it was a pity that Gu Nianzhi couldn't attend the bilateral meeting tomorrow, but for him, health was more important.
He never advocated working when one was sick.
Gu Nianzhi nodded. "If I'm fine tomorrow, I'll go to work. If I'm still not feeling well, I'll really have to take a few days of sick leave."
Speaker Long agreed and even wanted to find someone to send her back.
Gu Nianzhi declined Speaker Long's proposal and said with a smile, "I called a car. Someone will pick me up."
Reinitz had been by her side the whole time. When he heard that, he was confused.
Gu Nianzhi sensed Reinitz's gaze on her. Although it was a little prickly, she could handle it.
Gu Nianzhi calmly said goodbye to Speaker Long and the people from the Senate Secretariat, then turned to leave the banquet hall.
Reinitz thought about it, then grabbed a German man and said in German, "I have something to do tonight. You don't have to wait for me."
The German man nodded quickly.
On the surface, their delegation to China seemed to be the core of the female prime minister.
But even as the prime minister, she had to act according to He Zhichu's mood and was polite and respectful to him.
Of course, the staff member who accompanied the delegation didn't dare to put on airs in front of Reinitz.
He quickly said, "Okay, I'll pass on the message to the prime minister."
…
Reinitz caught up with Gu Nianzhi in the hallway outside the banquet hall of the Senate building and said with a smile, "Miss Gu, you left in such a hurry that you forgot your bodyguard in the banquet hall."
Gu Nianzhi turned around in surprise. "No, I didn't bring a bodyguard."
Her bright eyes flashed with the word "innocent." It was as if the woman who had deduced the trajectory of his growth from just a few words was just a figment of his imagination.
Reinitz felt a sense of excitement at meeting his match.
He pointed to himself and said with a smile, "That's me, Miss Gu. May I have the honor of being your escort?"
Gu Nianzhi was speechless.
"It's cold outside. Put my jacket on first and return it to me when we get in the car," Reinitz said as he draped the military jacket over his arm over Gu Nianzhi's shoulders.
…
Fifteen minutes later, He Zhichu's sports car stopped in front of the Senate building. Sitting in the car, He Zhichu saw Gu Nianzhi through the transparent window.
Under the tall white pillars, she wore a German army major general's uniform. The uniform was a bit large, so it made her look even smaller.
He Zhichu also saw Reinitz standing next to Gu Nianzhi. He stood very close to Gu Nianzhi.
From He Zhichu's perspective, he felt that Reinitz's other hand was definitely resting on Gu Nianzhi's waist.
The anger in He Zhichu's heart instantly rose.
He got out of the car with a dark expression and came to Gu Nianzhi and Reinitz's side. He threw a punch at Reinitz's face!
He said coldly in German, "Stay away from her. Don't let me see you deliberately getting close to her again."
