Qin Zhiyuan was stunned by He Zhichu's words. He quickly asked anxiously, "Then what do you mean? Are you still going to shoot my brother?! But he really doesn't deserve to die?! "
He Zhichu raised his hand and pressed it on Qin Zhiyuan's shoulder. His almond-shaped eyes were dark as he said coldly, "Whether he lives or dies, Qin Yaoguang doesn't have the final say, and neither do I."
"Then who?! Who has the final say?! Your father?! But I begged your father, and he said … "
Before Qin Zhiyuan could finish, He Zhichu interrupted him. "Of course the victim has the final say."
Qin Zhiyuan's heart turned cold. He looked at He Zhichu angrily. "Zhichu, my cousin hasn't offended you all these years, has he? You're playing with your cousin like this?! You clearly know that Gu Nianzhi is already dead, and you still want her to have the final say?! If you want him to die, just say it! "
He Zhichu's tone was cold, and his almond-shaped eyes seemed to be brewing with snow. "Who said she's dead? Who told you she's dead? "
Qin Zhiyuan: "…"
His heart, which had just sunk to the bottom of the valley, suddenly started beating violently.
"You mean, she's not dead?! She's really not dead?! That's great! "Qin Zhiyuan wiped the sweat off his forehead, but he was still so happy that he started crying.
No matter what, since the "victim" wasn't dead, then his brother's life was saved.
"You're good, He Zhichu! How dare you play with your cousin like this! " Qin Zhiyuan punched He Zhichu's shoulder and laughed with tears in his eyes. "Do you know how anxious I was?!"
He Zhichu sat back on the sofa, crossed his legs, and said coldly, "Who told you to come here and stir up trouble? No one told you that Zhining would be shot. How can you be justified in jumping around and being used as a gun? "
Qin Zhiyuan finally understood that someone had been messing with him behind his back from the beginning to the end.
"… My brother won't be shot at all, right?" Qin Zhiyuan rubbed his head and sat down opposite He Zhichu.
The curtains in the room were not open, and the well-shaped ceiling lamp on the ceiling emitted a white light. It poured down from He Zhichu's head and shrouded his face in shadows.
He Zhichu held his coffee cup with two fingers and said dryly, "I told you, whether he will be shot or not depends on whether the victim forgives him. That's why you were blindly involved. "
"But he's my younger brother. Tell me where Gu Nianzhi is. I'll go beg her myself. I'll agree to anything she asks for! "Qin Zhiyuan hurriedly expressed his conditions.
"What if she wants your brother to die?" He Zhichu scoffed. "Don't be so sure."
Qin Zhiyuan choked for a moment and said with a bitter smile, "Zhichu, you don't understand how I feel. When I found out that my brother might be shot, I really felt like the sky was going to fall. My parents died early, and my younger brother and I were dependent on each other. We lived in an orphanage for several years before we were found by your mother, my aunt, and brought to the capital to be raised. If I can't save him, how can I face my parents in the afterlife? "
He Zhichu was silent for a while, then said, "I understand how you feel. That's how I felt when I saw Nianzhi get shot in the back and stop breathing in my arms. The sky is falling, and I don't want to live anymore. "
Qin Zhiyuan closed his eyes. "I understand. Zhichu, Nianzhi is your fiancée. You've always liked her. Zhining has gone too far this time. I'll teach him well. Maybe I'll let him retire from the army."
He Zhichu sipped his coffee and looked up after a while. "I said, don't interfere in this matter anymore. I still have a use for Qin Zhining. Someone wants to use him to stir up trouble. It's not safe to let him out. "
Qin Zhiyuan's heart was still hanging in the air. He really wanted to see Gu Nianzhi.
However, He Zhichu said, "Nianzhi has just recovered from her serious injury, so she can't be too tired. Don't worry, if she doesn't nod, Zhining won't be shot. "
Qin Zhiyuan quickly said, "I just want to see her. After all, it was my brother's fault. As his brother, it's okay for me to apologize and compensate him on his behalf, right?"
"Okay, you wait first. We'll talk about it when there's a chance." He Zhichu was in a bad mood, but he reminded Qin Zhiyuan, "Don't worry about Qin Yaoguang. Don't spread the news that Nianzhi isn't dead. After all, someone is waiting for her to receive her 'body' and hold a funeral …"
Qin Zhiyuan saw that He Zhichu was fighting with his ex-mother. He rubbed his nose and said, "So that's how it is. Looks like I've really been used as a gun. "
..
After Qin Zhiyuan left, He Zhichu called He Chengjian and said righteously, "General He, please transfer Qin Zhining's case to me. No one else is allowed to interfere."
He Chengjian was delighted to see that He Zhichu was finally willing to call him. He agreed immediately. "Okay, okay, okay. I'll do whatever you say. I don't care about Qin Zhining anymore. Do whatever you want. "
He Zhichu snorted and said, "And Qin Yaoguang, when are you officially divorcing her?"
He Chengjian immediately said, "Immediately! I'll get the people from the Civil Affairs Bureau to personally handle the procedures! "
After finally kicking Qin Yaoguang out of the He family, He Zhichu was still unhappy. He said angrily, "This woman is crazy! Why didn't I know she was so crazy before?! "
He Zhichu could no longer restrain her evil intentions towards Gu Nianzhi. Just thinking about it made him sick.
He Chengjian also knew that Qin Yaoguang's condition was for Gu Nianzhi's "body".
He sighed and said, "Your mother was right back then. If the development of technology doesn't have laws, morals, and ethics, it won't be human progress, but a disaster."
"Back then, I thought Gu Xiangwen was the only crazy person. Now, it seems that all these people who only have science in their minds are crazy. Look at Qin Yaoguang. What has she become? "
"When I first met her, she was still a smart and intelligent scientist who devoted herself to learning. Now, she has become a monster without any humanity."
He Zhichu's eyes flashed, and he changed the topic without batting an eyelid. "Father, Nianzhi managed to survive this time. Don't worry about me and her anymore. If you do, I'm afraid I'll do something that will make you sad for the rest of your life. "
He Chengjian was afraid of He Zhichu's threat.
This son of his had risked his life to go to the other world to look for Gu Nianzhi. Now, if Gu Nianzhi lost her life on their side, he didn't know what his son would do.
This time, Gu Nianzhi had unexpectedly chosen to commit suicide, and He Chengjian had also been severely shaken.
He couldn't say a word as he watched the video of her resolutely dying.
"Children are all debts …" He Chengjian shook his head. "Don't worry, I won't meddle in your affairs anymore, but you have to hurry up …"
He was a father after all, so he couldn't help nagging.
He Zhichu nodded perfunctorily. "I know what I'm doing. You're doing me a great favor by not meddling."
He Chengjian solemnly promised that he and Gu Nianzhi would have the right to decide their relationship freely.
Then he asked fawningly, "Zhichu, today is Christmas Eve. Our He family's Christmas ball is tonight. Will you come back?"
He Zhichu grunted. "You're already divorced, so of course I'll come back."
He Chengjian was overjoyed. "Then I'll get someone to decorate the ball hall again. By the way, do you want an invitation? I'll get someone to send it to you? You can invite your own friends, colleagues, and subordinates. "
The He family's Christmas ball was considered an annual event in the Huaxia Empire. It received more attention than their national television station's Spring Festival Gala.
Although the ball wasn't broadcasted live, the people who entered the ball would walk the red carpet at the entrance.
The major media outlets usually couldn't get invitations, so they could only take photos of the people attending the ball at the entrance of the He family's house and post them online to show off.
In addition to the big shots of the cabinet, parliament, and military and their families, there were also a small number of invitations for outstanding people in the business, entertainment, sports, and academic world.
The number of these people was very small, less than 50 people a year, so the competition in this area was very fierce. It was much harder than getting an invitation to the Oscars.
He Zhichu hadn't been here for the past few years and hadn't appeared at the Christmas ball. Secretary Lin had even used this opportunity to chat with him last time.
One of the reasons He Zhichu called He Chengjian was because of this Christmas black invitation.
He nodded. "I need some invitations. How many can you give me?"
"Ah-Chu, don't talk to your old father like that." He Chengjian felt very sad. "This is your home. Tonight's Christmas ball is your home ground. You'll be hosting it. You can have as many invitations as you want."
He Zhichu's voice softened a little. "Okay, give me ten. I have some friends to invite."
"No problem! I'll get someone to send you twenty! If it's not enough, I'll make it up to you! " He Chengjian quickly called his personal secretary in charge of the Christmas ball and instructed them to fulfill He Zhichu's request.
He Chengjian's personal secretary naturally knew how important He Zhichu was. Moreover, He Zhichu was certain to take over He Chengjian's position in the future. He was their future leader. He might not curry favor with him now, but he definitely wouldn't make things difficult for him now and make him angry.
Only a fool would deliberately make things difficult for his future leader.
After getting the invitation, He Zhichu called Gu Nianzhi.
"Young Master He? What's the matter? "Gu Nianzhi put on her Bluetooth headset and continued playing the game as she answered the phone.
He Zhichu's voice was very gentle. "Nianzhi, Qin Zhining's brother, Qin Zhiyuan, came to see me today. He said that Qin Yaoguang gave him a condition. As long as you hand over your 'body' to her, she won't ask for Qin Zhining to be shot."
Gu Nianzhi was so angry that she pressed the wrong button. The character in the game accidentally "fell to the ground and turned into a box".
"Who does this Qin Yaoguang think she is? How can she be so shameless! Is she trying to anger me to death so that she can inherit all of my inheritance? " Gu Nianzhi was no longer in the mood to eat chicken dinner. She logged out of the game and said angrily, "She still wants my 'body'?! Does she want me to die that badly? No, I can't take it anymore. Even if she's my biological mother, she's too much! "
He Zhichu knew that she would be angry, so he quickly advised, "Don't get agitated. Besides, how could I let you suffer? I just wanted to remind you. "
"Good reminder." Gu Nianzhi lay down on the sofa and crossed one of her long legs. She said lazily, "I remember that I haven't made a will yet. I'll get a lawyer to come and make a will immediately. If I'm really angered to death by her, I can't let my inheritance fall into her hands. "
According to the inheritance law of the Huaxia Empire, Gu Nianzhi was considered unmarried and childless, so her first heirs were her father and mother.
Her father was already a dead man according to the law here, so the only legal heir was her biological mother, Qin Yaoguang.
Gu Nianzhi was so angry that she wanted to hit someone when she thought that if she really died this time, then all of her things, including her "body", might belong to Qin Yaoguang.
"I made a mistake, I made a mistake …" Gu Nianzhi mumbled. "I want to make a very detailed will immediately. The first clause is that Qin Yaoguang can't get a single cent of my assets!"
He Zhichu saw that she was still so lively, as if he could see her lively expression blooming in front of him. His mood suddenly improved, and he laughed. "Okay, I have a lawyer's license. Do you want me to come over and make a will for you?"
Gu Nianzhi rolled her eyes. "I'll go to your place, okay? Didn't you say you were at a nearby base? "
Gu Nianzhi had checked the map at that place. It was where Huo Shaoheng's special operations forces base in C City was located in the other world.
She had lived there for six years..
"Okay, I'll pick you up." He Zhichu was now completely obedient to her. He had even restrained his young master's temper that he used to lose control of.
Gu Nianzhi put down the phone and said to Lu Jin, "Dad, I'm going to Young Master He's base to make a will."
Lu Jin's heart skipped a beat. "What will?! You're just a child, don't talk nonsense! "
"This is just a legal document." Gu Nianzhi pressed Lu Jin's shoulder and made him sit down on the sofa. "Don't worry. Although I don't have as much money as you here, I've made a small fortune. Most importantly, I want to decide the ownership of my 'body'. I can't let that b * tch trample on my 'body' in the name of my biological mother! "
Lu Jin turned his head in shock. "What body? What are you talking about? "
Gu Nianzhi didn't hide it from Lu Jin. "Young Master He just told me that Qin Yaoguang used me to negotiate terms with someone else. I can't take it anymore."
Lu Jin was anxious. "You want to go against Qin Yaoguang?! She can do anything. Don't do anything rash! "
"I'll think about it." Gu Nianzhi promised Lu Jin. "Dad, don't worry, I won't be rash. She's not qualified to play legal games with me. "
Lu Jin's expression was uncertain. He lowered his head and thought for a while, then said, "Do you want me to stand up? Maybe she'll turn her attention to me. "
Gu Nianzhi quickly shook her head. "Of course not. You finally got rid of that b * tch. How can I let you go out and be disgusted by her again? It's okay, I really have a way. "
She actually didn't have much confidence, but she couldn't let Lu Jin worry.
Her confident look had indeed convinced Lu Jin.
After all, in Lu Jin's heart, both father and daughter were extremely intelligent people. If Gu Nianzhi said she had a way, then she definitely had a way.
And even if Gu Nianzhi failed, it didn't matter. He would be responsible.
If Qin Yaoguang didn't even let Gu Nianzhi go, Lu Jin would drag her down with him before he went to hell.
The two of them talked for a while before the doorbell rang.
He Zhichu stood at the door and personally came to welcome her to his base.
Gu Nianzhi opened the door alone and smiled. "Young Master He, you're really fast."
"It's not far, it's just next door." He Zhichu looked her up and down. He hadn't seen her for more than a month, and the longing in his heart had gathered into a river. However, it could only flow quietly under the snow and ice. There would never be a day when he would see the light of day again.
"You're recovering well." He Zhichu suppressed the emotions in his heart and smiled gently. "It's just that your lips are still a little pale."
Gu Nianzhi's lips were very plump. Now that they were slightly pale, it was obvious that they were white.
Gu Nianzhi looked up and smiled. "Then there's nothing I can do. I was injured too badly this time. I'm already very satisfied that I managed to recover to this state after a narrow escape from death. I never put pressure on myself. "
"That's good." He Zhichu nodded and led her to the base next to him.
He Zhichu's bulletproof car was surrounded by armed soldiers. A line of military vehicles opened up the way from the front and back, and they drove majestically towards the base 200 meters away.
The cars in front had already entered the base, and the cars behind were still at the entrance of Gu Nianzhi's neighborhood.
Gu Nianzhi turned around to look at the long line of cars and laughed in shock. "Young Master He, isn't this too much? Do you have to put on such a big show? "
He Zhichu said nonchalantly, "That's a big show? Didn't you see the surrounding residential buildings? My snipers are watching the entire scene from all the key places. If anyone dares to move, I'll blow her head off immediately. "
Gu Nianzhi lowered her head like Lu Jin. "… Boss, you're so amazing."
He Zhichu rubbed her head. "Stop fooling around. Isn't this all for you? Don't you know that she's waiting for your 'body'? If I don't protect you well, how can I live up to that touching 'motherly love'? "
Gu Nianzhi wrinkled her delicate little nose and said with a fierce expression, "I've had enough too. After I make my will today, I'll teach her a lesson! "
He Zhichu immediately said, "No problem. She just divorced my father."
Gu Nianzhi: "…"
Were the two related?
Gu Nianzhi looked at He Zhichu with a half-smile. "Young Master He, even if she's still Mrs. He, do you believe me?"
"I believe you, I believe you. Of course I believe you." He Zhichu raised his hands and said with a smile, "Her Majesty, Queen Gu's words are as good as gold."
"Young Master He, why are you suddenly so humorous?" Gu Nianzhi rubbed her nose and looked at him sideways. "You've changed a lot."
He Zhichu looked at her and thought to himself, if I can't change my heart, what's so difficult about changing my behavior?
The two of them chatted and laughed as they arrived at He Zhichu's official residence.
Gu Nianzhi looked around. Although it was the same place, the buildings inside were completely different. Only the small hill not far away looked the same.
She couldn't find the feeling of being there, so her mood dropped. She followed He Zhichu into his official residence and began to draft her will without any distractions.
They were both big lawyers, and this kind of will had a template. The two of them finished it in less than half an hour.
She signed her name and made it in triplicate, and it would take effect.
Gu Nianzhi kissed the will she had just made in satisfaction and said mockingly, "Mom doesn't have to worry about my 'body' anymore!"
He Zhichu: "…"
He took out a stack of invitations to tonight's Christmas ball and said, "Nianzhi, today is Christmas Eve. Our He family has a grand Christmas ball every year. Would you like to attend this Christmas ball with me today?"
Gu Nianzhi reflexively refused, "… Young Master He, that's not a good idea, is it?"
"The Qin Private Hospital Group has two invitations. I wonder if Qin Yaoguang will go tonight," He Zhichu said casually. He Zhichu said casually, "But I want you to host and dance with me at this ball. Then, I'll announce that I recognize you as my sister."
This was a public annulment of the engagement between the two of them in disguise.
