Gu Nianzhi's big eyes, which were as bright as stars, dimmed bit by bit.
She stared blankly at the man sitting next to her. She wanted to say something, but her throat was very obstructed. Her plump lips trembled, and she couldn't say a word.
They clearly had the same facial features, but they gave her a completely different feeling.
If Gu Nianzhi's memory of Huo Shaoheng was an oil painting with thick ink and heavy colors, it was full of grandeur. Although he was also so handsome that it made people feel desperate and suffocated, he still had human warmth and generosity.
But the person in front of her now was more like an exquisite beauty drawn with meticulous brushwork. Every detail was perfect and flawless. But he was as cold as ice, as cold as the third day of the year. He was completely different from the person in her memory.
The voice of Huo Shaoheng in her memory was low and magnetic, like a subwoofer that shook people's hearts.
The voice of the man in front of her was clear and cold. It was a typical baritone.
Gu Nianzhi was obsessed with looks and voices. As soon as the person spoke, Gu Nianzhi knew that she had recognized the wrong person.
That voice was completely different.
The initial palpitation gradually dissipated, and more and more differences reminded her that this was not the person in her heart.
Gu Nianzhi gritted her teeth and looked at the cards in the dealer's hand in front of her.
She didn't have the energy to remember and count the cards anymore. She lost three rounds in a row, and tens of thousands of dollars were gone in the blink of an eye.
Her face was full of pain. In the eyes of the people monitoring the casino, they thought that she had lost money because she was sad and couldn't help smiling with satisfaction.
Fortunately, this person wasn't strong enough to make them look at him differently or even add him to the "blacklist".
The man next to her who looked exactly like Huo Shaoheng had won a lot, more than she had won at the other table just now.
"Darling, you're so amazing!" The beautiful woman sitting on his lap hugged him and kissed him repeatedly. Big red lip prints covered his face one after another.
However, he only looked at her with a smile, took out a napkin, and elegantly wiped his face. Then, he extended the napkin that had red lipstick stains in front of the woman. His voice was clear and affectionate, "… Naughty girl."
Both of them spoke Russian, and Gu Nianzhi had taught herself Russian when she was in the other world. She could understand most daily conversations, so at this time, the blow to her was even worse.
Her expression was wooden and her body was stiff. She finally couldn't listen anymore.
He abruptly stood up, turned around, and rushed out of the specially concealed gambling table. Without hesitation, he pushed open the floor-to-ceiling window in front of him and came outside the deck, gasping for breath.
Just now, when she was inside, she was really suffocating. She even forgot to breathe completely.
It took almost all of her self-control not to break down in front of that person.
The deck outside was decorated luxuriously and comfortably. A few post-modern sofas made by designers were placed in a circle along the railing.
Gu Nianzhi walked around the sofa and rushed to the railing. She gripped the railing tightly with both hands, and her body swayed. She was like a night epiphyllum in the night wind, blooming to the extreme.
Not far from her, a tall man stood on the deck with a cigarette in his hand. He looked at the moonlight on the sea indifferently and gently exhaled a puff of white smoke.
Under the hazy moonlight, his handsome face was even more beautiful than the moonlight.
Gu Nianzhi rushed out and couldn't stop her tears.
She was so emotional that she didn't see anyone standing there at all.
With tears in her eyes, the man walked to her side and gently pulled her into his arms.
Gu Nianzhi had an illusion for a moment. She snuggled up to him and murmured, "Major General Huo, is that you?"
The man froze for a moment, then lowered his head to kiss the top of her head. His cold voice rang in her ear, "No, I'm He Zhichu. Don't mistake me for someone else. "
Gu Nianzhi closed her eyes, and a stream of tears rolled down again, wetting He Zhichu's shirt.
He Zhichu held the cigarette in one hand and hugged Gu Nianzhi with the other. Expressionless, he took another drag.
Gu Nianzhi greedily smelled the familiar cigarette smell in his arms and couldn't help but indulge herself.
He Zhichu gently patted her back and silently soothed her nervousness.
After a while, Gu Nianzhi whispered, "Why are you here?"
He Zhichu looked down at her deeply and said, "… I was worried that you wouldn't be able to accept it, so I came to see you."
Gu Nianzhi hugged his thin waist and rubbed her face against it. "You knew? You saw it too? "
He Zhichu didn't say anything and patted her head.
"When I first saw him, I thought I was hallucinating because I missed him so much." Gu Nianzhi whimpered, "But as soon as he opened his mouth, I knew it wasn't him … This isn't him …"
Because the Major General Huo she loved wouldn't look at her with such cold and bored eyes.
Because the Major General Huo she loved wouldn't look at another woman with such a doting gaze.
Because the Major General Huo she loved wouldn't be flirting with another woman in front of her …
Gu Nianzhi couldn't bear the thought of the situation just now.
Even if she knew he wasn't him, seeing him flirting with another woman in front of her with that face made Gu Nianzhi want to die.
She leaned into He Zhichu's arms and whispered, "In the past, I looked down on people who lived and died for love. But just now, for a moment, when I rushed out, I really wanted to jump down from this ten-story building."
"If I die, everything will be over. I won't have a headache, I won't have a broken heart, and I won't have to face that kind of embarrassment …"
"I'm a hypocrite. I'm a coward who can't stand and talk." Gu Nianzhi kept berating herself for her cowardice and incompetence.
He Zhichu was silent for a long time before saying, "I can't blame you. Everyone overestimates their ability to bear and underestimates their ability to endure. "
Therefore, only she knew whether the shoes fit her feet or not.
After Gu Nianzhi cried, her suppressed emotions were released to a certain extent, and her mood gradually calmed down.
She buried herself in He Zhichu's arms and muttered, "Who is that person? Do you know him? "
He Zhichu must have some understanding of this person's identity since he had rushed over.
He Zhichu thought about it and didn't hide it from her, because he was worried that it would cause her more trouble.
He lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "… He's the KGB's Ace of the Far East, Peter. His Chinese name is also Huo Shaoheng. "
When Gu Nianzhi heard this name, her entire body trembled uncontrollably.
She remembered that she had asked Xie Qingying about Xie Ziyan's whereabouts. Xie Qingying had said that Xie Ziyan had gone to the Soviet Union in her early years.
Then she had asked her why she hadn't asked the KGB to help find her..
In the end, it had come true.
It was as if no matter how the gears of fate turned, it could always bring the same people to the same situation.
Gu Nianzhi's face grew paler and paler. She didn't know how to face all of this.
He Zhichu hugged her even tighter and continued to murmur in her ear, "What's wrong? You can't stand hearing this name? "
Gu Nianzhi punched him hard and pushed him away. She turned around and smoothed her hair. She said uncomfortably, "No, I just saw it and was a little surprised."
He Zhichu narrowed his almond-shaped eyes and looked her up and down for a while, as if he was measuring how much sincerity was in her words. "Really? Just surprised? Don't you want to say hello? "
Gu Nianzhi rolled her eyes at him and replayed the scene in her mind. She suddenly came back to her senses and said in surprise, "That woman is Xiao Ye?!"
She quickly remembered that Xiao Ye had also worked as a secret agent in the Russian KGB. However, at that time, she had used a disguise and was very ordinary.
Xiao Ye's real appearance was especially beautiful. It was the appearance of the woman with long curly hair.
She had been with Xiao Ye day and night for more than a month, so she was too familiar with her.
However, when she first saw the man who looked exactly like Huo Shaoheng, she was shocked and emotional. Her attention was completely attracted by him, so she didn't realize who the beautiful woman sitting on his lap was.
He Zhichu looked away and nodded. He took a puff of his cigarette and said, "Yes, she's Xiao Ye, also known as Linda. She's the KGB's Far East Beauty."
Gu Nianzhi was stunned. "Huo Shaoheng became Peter, but Xiao Ye is still Linda?"
She remembered Peter from the other side. He was a man who always had drooping eyelids, as if he couldn't wake up all day long. His appearance was also very ordinary.
"Yes." He Zhichu nodded and gently flicked the ashes into the sea. "Theoretically speaking, because we don't have Huo Shaoheng on our side, he became Peter from the KGB's Far East Bureau."
"… He's Major General Huo's counterpart over there, isn't he?" Gu Nianzhi stared at He Zhichu intently, not letting go of even the slightest expression on his face.
