Gu Nianzhi had lived in C City for five years.
She was more familiar with all aspects of C City than the imperial capital. She just didn't know how different C City was from the other side.
When they arrived at the airport, He Zhichu and He Chengjian each received a text from Qin Zhining saying that he and Gu Nianzhi were about to board the plane to C City.
He Zhichu didn't say anything and replied with a text: "Protect her well."
He Chengjian's reply was even shorter. There were only three words: "Got it."
Qin Zhining bent over and sat beside Gu Nianzhi. He secretly looked at his phone to see if there were any instructions from his superiors.
When he saw the text messages from the two of them, he was a little speechless.
He put his phone away and turned around to see that Gu Nianzhi had already stood up in high spirits. He said, "It's time to board the plane."
Her suitcase had already been checked in, and she was carrying an orange Hermès platinum bag on her arm.
Qin Zhining looked up at her and stood up to say deliberately, "This kind of bag looks better on a mature woman. You, right? You're a little lacking."
"Mature woman?" Gu Nianzhi was deep in thought. "You mean older women, right?"
Qin Zhining nodded. "You could say that."
"… Like Wen Shouyi?" Gu Nianzhi tilted her head and smiled slyly.
Qin Zhining was annoyed. He turned his head and ignored her. He walked to the boarding gate alone.
Gu Nianzhi followed beside him and smiled. "Don't just be angry. I bought you a plane ticket. Remember to pay me back."
Qin Zhining stopped in his tracks and said coldly, "Your phone number."
Gu Nianzhi gave him a string of numbers.
Qin Zhining entered his phone and transferred the money for the plane ticket to her. "We don't owe each other anything now."
"Yes, yes, yes." Gu Nianzhi nodded repeatedly and smiled. "That's great. It doesn't hurt money if we don't talk about feelings."
Qin Zhining: "…"
Qin Zhining didn't say much along the way.
Fortunately, it was only two or three hours from the imperial capital to C City.
Gu Nianzhi took a nap. When she woke up, the plane was already about to land.
Qin Zhining stood up and took his backpack down. He asked, "Do you have a place to stay here?"
Gu Nianzhi thought about it. "Let's find a hotel first, then rent a place."
She had lived in C City before, and the West District was where the government's main departments were located. The residential areas there were especially expensive, but the facilities were very good. Also, the military base was in the West District, and Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng lived there.
The northern part of the city was where the rich lived. Most of them were bosses of listed companies and business families.
C City's financial and high-tech industries were very developed. The Dongcheng District was a business district with many skyscrapers. Several of Huaxia's most famous internet companies were located there.
The people living in Nancheng District were all ordinary working-class people. The population density here was the highest. Although the houses were also high-rise buildings, they were densely packed together. Each building was erected in a narrow space like a matchbox.
The houses were very close to each other.
Pushing open the window, he could almost clearly see the people in the opposite building.
When Gu Nianzhi was attending university in C City, she had followed her classmates to Nan City to do social research and legal services.
Her plan was to rent a small apartment in Nancheng and stay there for the time being.
There were many people here, and all kinds of signals were mixed up.
When she entered Nancheng, it was like a small raindrop falling into the sea.
It wasn't that easy to track her or follow her.
As long as she sent Qin Zhining away, she could enjoy her time alone.
Gu Nianzhi opened the app on her phone and deliberately found a hotel in Bei City. She said, "I've booked two rooms. How long are you staying here?"
Qin Zhining said nonchalantly, "When you settle down, I can go back and report back."
"It's that simple?" Gu Nianzhi looked at him suspiciously. "Aren't you going to go underground to protect me from the shadows?"
Qin Zhining: "!!!"
"… How did you know?" Qin Zhining felt more and more that Gu Nianzhi wasn't simple. "Did Young Master He tell you?"
Gu Nianzhi rolled her eyes and smiled. "Yes, Young Master He told me."
Actually, she had deduced it from Huo Shaoheng and the others' working conditions.
Gu Nianzhi had already realized that although there were no special operations forces here, Qin Zhining's work was similar to that of the special operations forces.
Qin Zhining narrowed his eyes. "Really? You're not lying to me, are you? "
"Of course not." Gu Nianzhi put away her phone and changed the topic with a serious expression. "By the way, help me ask Young Master He if he can give me a driver's license so I don't have to take the test again."
Gu Nianzhi's heart ached when she thought of the car she had left there. She didn't want to talk to Qin Zhining anymore.
The two of them got off the plane, rented a car at the airport, and drove to the hotel Gu Nianzhi had booked.
Gu Nianzhi, who had been chatty and talkative, suddenly stopped talking. Qin Zhining wasn't used to it.
He glanced at Gu Nianzhi from time to time, but after trying several times, Gu Nianzhi pretended to be deaf and dumb and refused to speak, so he stopped asking.
Qin Zhining was stunned as he drove the car to the hotel in Bei City in silence. "You booked a five-star Hilton hotel?!"
"Yes, what's wrong?" Gu Nianzhi pushed open the car door with a dark expression. "It's only 5,000 a night. Do you think it's too low?"
She had booked a cheaper standard room. If it was a presidential suite or something, the 100,000 yuan He Zhichu had given her would only be enough for a few nights.
Qin Zhining trembled. "Five thousand a night … Can I check out?"
"I can't." Gu Nianzhi turned to look at him and laughed. "Look at how useless you are. I'll pay for your room today, but tomorrow, you should go back and get me a driver's license. "
Qin Zhining immediately nodded. "I can go back now."
Five thousand a night? She would get pregnant if she slept there?
Gu Nianzhi snickered. Although this was exactly what she wanted, she still pretended to be troubled. After thinking about it for a long time, she said, "Fine then. You go back first. When you come back tomorrow, bring me my driver's license."
With that, she dragged her suitcase into the hotel.
in。
Qin Zhining felt as if he had been pardoned. He drove back to the airport.
Qin Zhining wasn't particularly worried about Gu Nianzhi's safety, because he was in the open now. If he left, there would be colleagues who would secretly protect her.
On the way, he used his phone to buy a plane ticket. After arriving at the airport, he returned the car and boarded the plane back to the capital.
After getting rid of Qin Zhining, Gu Nianzhi breathed a sigh of relief. She first checked out of the room she had booked for Qin Zhining at the front desk. She only wanted a standard room.
After all, it was a five-star hotel, so it was fine to check out at the last minute.
Gu Nianzhi took the key card and went upstairs. She asked for the place to eat and took a short rest. It was time for dinner.
Just as she was about to go down and find a place to eat, He Zhichu called.
"Nianzhi, have you checked in already?" He Zhichu sat in his office and called Gu Nianzhi with his Bluetooth headset on.
Gu Nianzhi smoothed her hair in the mirror and walked out with her phone in her hand. "I just checked in. Brother Little Ning has already returned to the capital. Young Master He, can you help me get a driver's license for him to bring over? "
He Zhichu knew that Gu Nianzhi had a driver's license there, so he nodded and agreed. "When Little Qin comes back, I'll ask him to bring it over for you."
Gu Nianzhi smiled and thanked him. "Is there anything else, Young Master He? I'm going to have dinner. "
He Zhichu quickly said, "Hurry up and go eat. Don't starve yourself."
Thinking of Gu Nianzhi's "culinary skills", He Zhichu reminded her again, "After you rent a house, remember to find a part-time helper who knows how to cook. Don't always order takeout."
"Got it." Gu Nianzhi made a face at her phone. "I won't eat red wine like a meal every day."
She was teasing He Zhichu that he often drank red wine like a meal over there.
He Zhichu: "…"
"… You're getting naughtier and naughtier." He Zhichu curled his lips, and his sparkling almond-shaped eyes rippled with an intoxicating smile.
Gu Nianzhi walked into the elevator as she called. Thinking that the restaurant where she was eating was on the fourth floor, she glanced around and saw the word "four". She casually pressed the floor.
In the end, the elevator slid all the way down to the fourth floor underground before stopping.
The elevator door opened, and Gu Nianzhi saw a very elegant and fashionable corridor. A few well-dressed people walked past her, and the pleasant sound of a piano came from the private room. It sounded very classy.
This was a restaurant?
Gu Nianzhi walked out of the elevator and looked for signs everywhere.
After looking for a long time, she finally realized that this was the fourth floor underground. There was a "-" in front of the "four" she had pressed, but she hadn't noticed it.
However, from the looks of it, it seemed to be a place to eat, and it was very stylish.
Gu Nianzhi was curious and decided to find a place to eat here.
She looked at the private rooms one by one. Some of the private rooms were closed, while others had their doors ajar.
There weren't many people inside, and they were in groups of three or five, sipping wine. There were also many people, and it seemed like they were having a party.
However, it wasn't noisy, and everyone seemed very polite.
Gu Nianzhi was almost at the end of the corridor, but she didn't see a place like a restaurant to order food.
She was a little disappointed and was about to return to the restaurant on the fourth floor upstairs. There must be a place to order food there.
At that moment, the door of a private room was suddenly pushed open.
A drunk man came out from inside. He held the door and panted for a while, as if he was about to vomit.
Gu Nianzhi quickly moved away, not seeming to be affected by the smell of alcohol.
The man looked up, and in his drunken haze, he saw a girl with a ponytail walk past in front of him. He couldn't see her face, but her fair side profile flashed past his eyes, and it was extremely seductive.
His gaze followed her, and he saw her back. Under a simple white T-shirt, her slender waist could not be grasped, and a pair of long legs covered in blue jeans. They were so straight that it made one's imagination run wild.
If such a pair of legs wrapped around his waist …
Damn, he was actually going to get hard.
He wiped his mouth and chased after her.
"Miss, are you coming to the stage?"
Gu Nianzhi turned around and inexplicably saw a drunk young man walking over. He leaned against the wall and struck what he thought was his most handsome pose, grinning.
"What stage?" Gu Nianzhi pointed in the direction of the elevator. "Are you looking for the front desk? Go up from here to the lobby on the first floor. The front desk is there. "
Although the man was drunk, he wasn't drunk to the point of losing consciousness.
As soon as he heard Gu Nianzhi's words, and then looked at her attire and temperament, he knew he had the wrong person. This girl wasn't a prostitute here …
He chuckled and didn't want to retreat. He leaned over and sniffed. "What perfume are you using? Why does it smell so good? "
As he spoke, he wanted to block her against the wall.
Gu Nianzhi finally understood that she had met a hooligan with bad intentions. In a rage, she suddenly reached out and grabbed the man's wrist, twisted it, and pinned it behind him. She dragged him to a place in the corridor where the surveillance cameras couldn't see and kicked him in the knee.
The man couldn't stand steadily and knelt down.
Gu Nianzhi grabbed his head and slammed it against the wall.
"Open your f * cking eyes and take a look! How dare you provoke anyone? Are you blind?! "Gu Nianzhi was so angry that she punched and kicked the man.
Gu Nianzhi, who had grown up with Huo Shaoheng in the army, had been trained. She was more than enough to deal with this kind of pervert.
Besides, the man was already drunk, and Gu Nianzhi had pinched the numb tendon on his arm. His head had been hit so hard that he was seeing stars. He was in so much pain that he started wailing like a ghost.
The doors of the private rooms were pushed open one after another. Gu Nianzhi saw that she had alarmed someone and immediately ran towards the elevator. However, she heard the alarm in the corridor ring, and there were already guards standing in front of the elevator door.
She cursed her bad luck. She didn't want to make a big deal out of it and be scolded by He Chengjian. She didn't want Qin Yaoguang and Wen Shouyi to know that she had caused trouble as soon as she left the He family …
In a moment of desperation, the door of a private room opposite suddenly opened. "Come in."
A female voice rang out and dragged her in.
Gu Nianzhi entered the private room and was about to thank her when she suddenly saw the girl's face. She blurted out as if she had seen a ghost, "Bai Shuang?! Why are you here? "
The girl, who was wearing a white shirt and black pants and holding a bottle of red wine in her hand, looked at her curiously. "How do you know my name? I don't know you? "
