Another invalid number.
Huo Shaoheng remained calm and asked, "What's the number?"
His subordinate reported the number to him.
It was another four-digit number, and it was claimed to be an international number, because according to their telecommunications tracking, it was confirmed that this call had indeed been made through the submarine cable, all the way to the other side of the ocean.
But after reaching the other side of the ocean, it was cut off.
Because there was no such number on the other side.
Huo Shaoheng's expression didn't change in the slightest. He said indifferently, "Continue monitoring. Report to me immediately if anything happens."
"Yes, Chief."
The other side hung up.
Huo Shaoheng looked at Gu Nianzhi thoughtfully.
Gu Nianzhi finished a sumptuous breakfast and dinner and felt extremely comfortable.
She got up and walked up and down the hall, counting her steps as she went.
Huo Shaoheng placed the utensils in the dishwasher in the kitchen and filled it with dishwasher detergent. He adjusted the program and started the dishwasher.
He also went to the bathroom to take a shower. While he was in Gu Nianzhi's bedroom, he logged onto the Special Operations Forces' website to read his work emails for a while.
Half an hour later, he came out of the bedroom and saw Gu Nianzhi still spinning around in the living room.
Huo Shaoheng shook his head speechlessly. He picked up a military magazine and sat down on the sofa in the living room. Crossing his legs, he flipped through the magazine and asked calmly, "What are you doing? Aren't you tired after walking for half an hour? "
"I ate too much, so I can't sit down immediately after eating. I need to exercise more, or else my tummy will get bigger." Gu Nianzhi rubbed her tummy with some distress. "I seem to have put on some weight recently."
Huo Shaoheng glanced at her waist. His Adam's apple bobbed up and down as he said, "… It's okay."
She looked at the magazine in front of her. The black words and colorful pictures swayed in front of her, but she couldn't bear to look at them.
After a while, Huo Shaoheng put down the military magazine in his hand and walked to the window. He crossed his arms and leaned against the windowsill. He carefully looked at Gu Nianzhi, who was still pacing in the living room, and suddenly asked, "Is your period normal?"
Gu Nianzhi looked up at him in surprise. "It's normal. It's extremely accurate, not a day off. I just came here a few days ago. What's wrong? "
He had just been here a few days ago …
Therefore, it was definitely not the case.
Huo Shaoheng looked away with mixed feelings.
For a moment, he couldn't tell if he was happier or more disappointed.
He stopped thinking about it and walked to Gu Nianzhi's side. "It's useless to just walk if you want to reduce your belly size."
"Then what should we do?"
"Do push-ups. Do 20 standard push-ups at a time. Inhale and suck in your abdomen. Do a total of five sets. I guarantee that you won't have a small belly. "
Gu Nianzhi stopped in her tracks and blinked twice. "Really? It's so effective? "
She found a yoga mat and laid it on the floor. Then, she lay down and did two.
Huo Shaoheng watched as her slender waist collapsed like a spoon, making the lines of her back and hips extremely alluring. He was a little annoyed, but he still corrected her from the side, "Use more strength in your waist. It can't be soft and floppy."
He patted Gu Nianzhi's waist.
With a smack, Gu Nianzhi was sent sprawling on the ground.
"What are you doing?!" Gu Nianzhi was furious. She raised her head and wanted to retort, but she saw Huo Shaoheng looking down at her with a faint smile on his lips. It was like the morning sun shining through the cracks in the clouds.
Gu Nianzhi's anger instantly melted like a snow lion under the sun.
Her eyes darted around. She propped herself up from the yoga mat and sat on the ground hugging her knees. She said, "It's useless. I don't think this method can reduce my belly size."
"How is it useless?" Huo Shaoheng glanced at her. "That's because you didn't do it well."
As he spoke, he stretched his muscles and bones, then lay down. He propped his hands on Gu Nianzhi's yoga mat and began to do push-ups.
Gu Nianzhi counted for him from the side. When she counted to ten, Gu Nianzhi suddenly jumped up and lay on Huo Shaoheng's back. She hugged his neck and said proudly, "Do it, do it again! Let's see how well you can do these push-ups with me on your back! "
Huo Shaoheng's back sank, and he was indeed caught off guard.
But he quickly steadied his arm and said, "Continue counting."
As he spoke, he carried Gu Nianzhi on his back and continued to do push-ups.
His back was still as straight as a straight line, even though he was carrying someone on his back.
Gu Nianzhi hugged his neck and went up and down on his back. She found that this person did push-ups with someone on his back like a game. It didn't take him any effort at all.
The toughness of his back and the strength of his arms were truly heaven-defying!
Gu Nianzhi's eyes flashed, and she suddenly felt playful. She suddenly moved one hand away and quietly went under Huo Shaoheng's armpit. She exerted force with her five fingers and scratched the itchy flesh under his armpit!
This sudden attack almost caused Huo Shaoheng to "flip over".
He quickly calmed himself down and tensed up all the muscles in his body.
When Gu Nianzhi scratched again, she found that Huo Shaoheng's armpit was also hard. When she scratched again with her hand, it was like an egg hitting a rock. Her fingertips ached from the scratching.
"You're cheating …" Gu Nianzhi muttered softly. She rolled down from Huo Shaoheng's back and lay on the floor beside him, panting slightly.
Huo Shaoheng supported himself with his arms and calmed down for a while. He turned his head and saw Gu Nianzhi lying beside him.
He looked at her silently for a while, then leaned over and kissed her gently.
Gu Nianzhi kissed him and felt something. She reached out to hug him.
Huo Shaoheng hugged her in his arms and sat up from the ground. He let her lie on his lap and leaned her upper body against the crook of his arm. He held her head and kissed her deeply again.
..
The next morning, Huo Shaoheng woke up very early.
After going out for morning exercise, he bought two breakfasts and walked back with them.
Xiao Ye stood at the door at the bottom of the building waiting for him with a smile.
"Huh? You're here. "Huo Shaoheng greeted her.
Xiao Ye handed Gu Nianzhi's car keys back to Huo Shaoheng.
Huo Shaoheng took the car keys and asked her, "Why did you only deliver the keys today?"
Xiao Ye whispered, "… You were at Miss Gu's house yesterday. I was afraid to disturb you."
After she drove Gu Nianzhi's car over yesterday, she had wanted to wait for Huo Shaoheng to leave before delivering the keys.
She didn't want to disturb the two of them.
She didn't expect Huo Shaoheng to go in and not come out until this morning.
Huo Shaoheng grunted and said pleasantly, "Xiao Ye, since you're here, I'll tell you directly. After you came back this time, your mother begged me to let you stay in the country for a while longer. "
"Huh?" Xiao Ye was very embarrassed and quickly said, "Chief, don't listen to my mother's nonsense. She doesn't know anything. I like to go out into the field. You can send me anywhere else! "
Huo Shaoheng smiled and said, "Let's go upstairs first. Have you had breakfast? "
Xiao Ye cleverly looked at the breakfast in Huo Shaoheng's hand. There was only two servings, so she quickly said, "I've eaten. I've eaten since I woke up early in the morning. "
Huo Shaoheng stopped in his tracks and looked at her. He said calmly, "You've eaten? You stayed in the parking lot all night, right? Where did you have breakfast? "
Xiao Ye's face turned red.
She smiled embarrassedly. "Chief, I didn't …"
"You're still lying in front of me?" Huo Shaoheng glanced at her. "You smell like the perfume in Nianzhi's car. This proves that you've been in her car for at least six hours. Your hair and face are both oily. You probably haven't showered or washed your hair all night. Also, your stomach growled twice just now. You just came out of the parking lot and didn't have breakfast, right? "
Xiao Ye was both embarrassed and convinced. She was also glad that she had chewed a piece of gum when she got out of the car in the morning. Otherwise, she wouldn't have dared to talk to anyone else.
She looked at Huo Shaoheng with a face full of admiration.
"Chief, you're too amazing. Not a single clue can escape your sharp eyes! "Xiao Ye was so impressed that she prostrated herself in admiration.
Huo Shaoheng handed her the breakfast in his hand. "Take it up and wait for me at the door. I'll be right back. "
Xiao Ye didn't dare disobey the order.
Huo Shaoheng pressed the elevator floor for her and let her go up. He went out to buy another breakfast.
By the time he returned to Gu Nianzhi's floor, Xiao Ye had already been waiting there for more than ten minutes.
Huo Shaoheng opened Gu Nianzhi's door and invited Xiao Ye in.
Xiao Ye was still a little embarrassed and said, "Why don't I not go in? I still have something to do in the department … "
Huo Shaoheng pulled her in and closed the door. He said seriously, "Come in if I tell you to. I have a mission for you."
When Huo Shaoheng said that he had a mission, Xiao Ye immediately didn't stand on ceremony with him.
After entering Gu Nianzhi's small suite, Xiao Ye looked straight ahead and stood at attention.
"Chief, please give the order."
Huo Shaoheng placed three servings of breakfast on the dining room table. "Come and have breakfast. We'll talk while we eat."
Xiao Ye followed him to the dining room and sat down. She didn't see Gu Nianzhi come in and asked, "Where's Miss Gu?"
"Still sleeping. She was exhausted yesterday and won't get up until noon today. "
Xiao Ye nodded. "I heard that Miss Gu is quite good at lawsuits. Did she win again yesterday? "
Huo Shaoheng said casually, "That's her profession." There was a hint of pride in his tone.
Xiao Ye couldn't help looking up at him. "Chief, when do you plan to get your wedding certificate?"
Huo Shaoheng took out the soup dumplings and placed them on the plate. He smiled and said, "There are too many things to prepare. It'll be next year at the earliest."
Actually, it was because of Zhao Liangze and Bai Shuang that Huo Shaoheng and Yin Shixiong had decided to postpone the wedding for a year.
"Congratulations, Chief." Xiao Ye beamed. "I'll give you a big red packet when the time comes. Does Miss Gu need a bridesmaid? I can recommend myself. "
Huo Shaoheng's brows relaxed at the mention of the wedding, and his smile gradually grew. "You reminded me that I'm worried about those guys. Since you're back, I'll leave Nianzhi to you. Help me take good care of her."
"Huh?" Xiao Ye was surprised. "Me?"
"Yes." Huo Shaoheng whispered about Gu Nianzhi's situation. "… Because her father is still missing, there are a lot of people watching her."
Huo Shaoheng remembered that every time something happened to Gu Nianzhi, the ubiquitous invalid number would appear. A faint haze covered Huo Shaoheng's brows.
"Xiao Ye, I'm confident in your abilities. I'll leave Nianzhi's personal safety for the next year to you. "
Xiao Ye listened attentively and was very sympathetic to Gu Nianzhi's predicament. She quickly said, "Don't worry, Chief. I promise to complete the mission!"
Gu Nianzhi actually had a lot of security guards around her, but Huo Shaoheng was still worried. He had always wanted to find her another personal bodyguard.
A man definitely wouldn't do, and there wasn't a suitable woman for the time being.
It wasn't until Xiao Ye returned that he was relieved to hand Gu Nianzhi over to her.
"I'll tell Nianzhi later that you'll follow her and be her personal assistant to the public." Huo Shaoheng quickly asked the Special Operations Forces to make another set of identity documents for Xiao Ye. "This place is too small. I'll ask Nianzhi to move to the apartment on the third ring road. It's bigger there, so you can follow her in. "
As the name implied, a personal bodyguard had to be like a shadow to be called a personal bodyguard.
