"Really? They really don't know? " Gu Nianzhi asked in confusion. "They must have been specially selected and professionally trained to be your full-time caregivers, right?"
Gu Nianzhi couldn't imagine that a family like the Huo family would randomly find two people from the babysitting market to take care of Song Jinning.
Huo Shaoheng lowered his eyes and said lightly, "… At that time, my father was in charge of finding people. I wasn't at home."
He left home to go to college and then joined the army, so he rarely went home.
After saving Gu Nianzhi, he received the task of guarding Gu Nianzhi from the military. For six years, he hadn't returned to his own home even once.
It wasn't until more than a year ago that Gu Nianzhi wanted to come to the imperial capital for graduate school, that he took her back to his home in the military.
Gu Nianzhi shook her head speechlessly.
Fine, these two people could really have been randomly found from the babysitting market.
Forget it, she made a note in her electronic notes.
It was already afternoon when she followed Huo Shaoheng back to the headquarters of the Special Operations Forces.
Gu Nianzhi got out of the car and looked up at the hot sun in the sky.
It was almost summer, and the weather was gradually getting hotter.
At two or three o 'clock in the afternoon, it was the hottest time of the day.
Gu Nianzhi wiped her sweat and suddenly felt the phone in her pocket vibrate again.
She took it out and found that it was the driver from the Russian KGB who had sent her a message!
Gu Nianzhi quickly unlocked her phone with her fingerprint and logged in.
In the "KGB trio" discussion group, the driver sent a crying emoji and then sent a message in English.
[Middle-aged Driver]: … Lina's body was found in a dark river connected to the giant circular pit …
Gu Nianzhi: "…"
She quickly tapped her fingers on her phone and replied, "Is it confirmed? Is it really Lina?
If it was found in the dark river, it would have been beyond recognition after so many days, right? "
[Middle-aged Driver]: It's confirmed. The DNA test results just came out. It's confirmed to be Lina.
There was a long silence.
Gu Nianzhi didn't know what to say.
She waited for a while and replied with a "hug" emoji.
[Nian Zi Zai]: Uncle Ivan, my condolences. Where's Vladimir? He's also … my condolences …
Uncle Driver: "The boss fainted as soon as he saw the DNA test result. Peter is taking over his position now. I hope he can recover soon …"
Gu Nianzhi was very sad.
A few days ago, he was still in the same car as them, but today, it was confirmed that he was dead.
Although Gu Nianzhi had been mentally prepared for Lina's death, she still felt very bad when she confirmed it.
Rubbing her fingers on her phone, she sent the driver a red packet of 66.66 yuan to comfort him.
She didn't have the nerve to text Vladimir.
He always felt that it was ironic to comfort someone with a red packet when they were heartbroken.
The driver was different. For him, the best consolation was a red packet …
Sure enough, after the middle-aged driver accepted the red packet, he felt much better.
He quickly typed on his phone and turned on the spamming mode.
Uncle Driver: "Boss doesn't believe that Lina is dead. He hasn't eaten, drank, slept, or rested for the past few days. He's been looking for her everywhere."
[Middle-aged Driver]: "He has searched dozens of miles around the Tunguska crater in Siberia. I'm afraid an underground ant, male or female, can't escape his tracking."
[Middle-aged Driver]: "In the end, we still got news of her death."
[Middle-aged Driver]: "Peter personally led some people to discover it in the underground river. At first, it was just a floating corpse. Later, someone said that it might be Lina because the underground river was directly connected to the Tunguska crater. "
[Middle-aged Driver]: "Peter ordered people to take the floating corpse away and conduct a DNA test. The result was that it was Lina."
[Middle-aged Driver]: …
[Middle-aged Driver]: "What unfortunate news. I'm sorry. I hope Lina can rest in peace in heaven." Candle.JPG.
The two of them chatted for a while before the middle-aged driver said that he had a mission and logged out.
Gu Nianzhi looked up and saw that she was standing under a big tree at the entrance of Huo Shaoheng's official residence. The ginkgo trees in front of her towered into the sky, and the green leaves that looked like small fans shone brightly, making her eyes sore.
Huo Shaoheng stood silently beside her and reached out to hug her head, silently comforting her.
Huo Shaoheng had seen her group chat with the middle-aged driver.
He also knew that Lina's death had been confirmed.
"… It's okay. She died at her post. As a soldier, she died a worthy death." Huo Shaoheng comforted Gu Nianzhi.
Gu Nianzhi: "…"
She buried her head in Huo Shaoheng's arms and smelled the refreshing and cold scent in his arms. Gu Nianzhi's uneasy heart gradually calmed down.
"This is your daily job …" Gu Nianzhi murmured as she snuggled closer to him. "You must take care of yourself. You must take care of yourself …"
Huo Shaoheng patted her back and didn't say anything. He led her into the official residence's courtyard.
The soldier standing guard in front of the door stood at attention and saluted Huo Shaoheng.
Huo Shaoheng nodded and said calmly, "Thank you for your hard work. The weather is hot, so the time you have to stand guard outside can be shortened by an hour. "
"Thank you, Chief! We're not hot! "The soldier replied loudly, his head raised high.
Gu Nianzhi was embarrassed. She struggled out of Huo Shaoheng's arms and held his hand as they walked up the steps.
"Major General Huo, I actually knew that Lina was most likely dead, but it was still very hard to hear the news." Gu Nianzhi looked up at Huo Shaoheng longingly.
His profile was tall and firm, mighty and calm. It seemed that nothing could shake his tenacious self-control and steely will.
Huo Shaoheng said calmly, "It's normal to feel bad. It would be cold-blooded not to feel bad."
Gu Nianzhi curled her lips. "Well, that's good. I thought you would say that I'm not strong enough …"
"Of course not." Huo Shaoheng patted her head. "I don't think anyone has the right to say that you're not strong enough to walk out of the Alps alive after being hunted down."
Gu Nianzhi's dark eyes darted around and she smiled. "Major General Huo, you have that much confidence in me?"
Huo Shaoheng smiled but didn't say anything.
..
Gu Nianzhi returned to her room and wrote a letter to Speaker Long and the Secretariat of the Senate to request that her official start date be postponed.
She wanted to settle Luo Jialan's lawsuit first.
If she were to take up the position of Chief Legal Counsel of the Senate at the same time, there was a high chance that it would be detrimental to her lawsuit.
Cai Shengnan had always been eyeing the position of Chief Legal Counsel. If she knew that Gu Nianzhi had officially started work, she would definitely not let go of this opportunity to discredit her.
After a detailed discussion with her, Speaker Long agreed to her request, but requested that she delay her start date for no more than three months.
After three months, regardless of whether Luo Jialan's case was resolved or not, she had to start work.
Gu Nianzhi calculated the time and felt that it should be more than enough, so she agreed and even signed the contract for a delay.
After settling the matters with the Senate, Gu Nianzhi began to draft the indictment.
She listed the evidence she had collected in order of priority, including witness and physical evidence. After showing it to He Zhichu, she handed it over to the prosecutor's office and requested that Luo Jialan be prosecuted.
While the prosecutor's office was reviewing Gu Nianzhi's claim, Gu Nianzhi pondered and asked Huo Shaoheng about the Huo family's trust fund.
She planned to file a civil lawsuit at the same time as she filed a criminal lawsuit, asking Luo Jialan to repay the Huo family's trust fund.
Huo Shaoheng was silent for a moment before saying, "These trust funds actually don't belong to the Huo family, but to my grandmother."
"So that means the trust fund actually belongs to the Xie family?" Gu Nianzhi immediately understood. "Is your grandmother's will still there?"
"… The will requested that the trust fund be distributed according to the trust fund distribution plan under her name." Huo Shaoheng explained briefly.
Huo Shaoheng's grandmother, Xie Ziyan, was the eldest daughter of the Xie family. Her assets and properties covered the entire Blue Planet.
During her serious illness, she had placed most of her assets into three irrevocable trust funds in a certain proportion.
(Trust).
80% of this was placed into an irrevocable trust fund with Huo Shaoheng as the beneficiary.
"Irrevocable trust fund" meant that the trustor gave up all ownership of these assets. Only the beneficiary could change or revoke the specific terms of the trust fund.
This meant that only the beneficiary was the true owner of these assets.
The other 20% was divided equally into two portions.
One portion was given to her eldest son, Huo Guanyuan, who was also Luo Jialan's nominal father.
The other portion was given to her second son, Huo Guanchen, who was also Huo Shaoheng's biological father.
All the remaining assets were left to her husband, Huo Xuenong.
However, Huo Xuenong had said at that time that he didn't need his wife's legacy. He had taken the initiative to place all the inheritance his wife had left him into an irrevocable trust fund with Huo Shaoheng as the beneficiary.
This way, more than 80% of Xie Ziyan's assets would be inherited by Huo Shaoheng.
Huo Shaoheng's father, Huo Guanchen, also didn't use his mother's inheritance. He had once said that the trust fund under his name would be given to his grandson in the future..
And what Luo Jialan had inherited now was the irrevocable trust fund that had been given to Huo Guanyuan.
Gu Nianzhi gasped when she heard this. "No wonder she could buy a villa in the West Mountains! 10% of your grandmother's assets are in her hands! "
Huo Shaoheng's expression was calm, but a hint of gloominess flashed through his eyes. "West Mountain Villa? Luo Jialan bought a villa in the West Mountains? "
"Professor He and I went to the Luhuitou restaurant in the West Mountains for dinner that day and met Luo Jialan. She said herself that she had property there."
"I'll have to check it out." Huo Shaoheng thought about it. The last time he had asked Uncle Xie to help check the direction of the trust fund under Luo Jialan's name, it had confirmed that the trust fund had indeed transferred money to Seth's stepfather's bank account.
However, Uncle Xie hadn't given him a follow-up response.
