He Zhichu didn't answer immediately. Instead, he continued to look at He Chengjian quietly and persistently.
He Zhichu's appearance was exactly the same as He Chengjian's. Both of them had sparkling almond-shaped eyes, high noses, and thin lips. They were a strange combination of amorous and heartless, and they had a different kind of charm.
He Chengjian looked at his son as if he was looking at himself when he was young. His heart softened for a moment, and he muttered, "… What do you mean? Take it easy. Your old father's heart isn't good … "
His hands were trembling as he fumbled in the drawer for his special medicine.
He Zhichu's eyes were sharp. He saw a familiar bottle of medicine lying in the corner of the drawer.
He bent over and took out the bottle of medicine from the drawer. He poured out a pill in his palm and handed it to He Chengjian.
He Chengjian took the medicine and swallowed it.
He Zhichu poured him another glass of water and handed it to him.
He Chengjian drank the water from He Zhichu's hand. Only then did he feel his chest tightness and shortness of breath slowly improve.
He Zhichu saw that his expression had improved, so he said slowly, "I was just saying. Please think about it. If you don't want to, then forget it."
After all, there was no doubt about his mother's direct cause of death. He just wanted to know what had happened back then to make his mother "die of anger"?!
He Zhichu's eyes flashed, and he thought of the "doctor" who had performed the surgery on Gu Nianzhi.
If there was anyone in this world who knew why his mother, Qin Suwen, had been "angered to death", Gu Nianzhi would definitely be one of them.
He Chengjian nodded. "Okay, let me think about it."
..
Gu Nianzhi came out of the courtroom and sent Jin Dazhuang and the receptionist, Xiao Zhang, to the airport.
They had arrived yesterday and were flying back to C City this evening.
Gu Nianzhi's trial had taken almost half a day. By the time the trial was over, they had to go to the airport for security check.
She personally drove He Zhichu's car to the airport.
The receptionist, Xiao Zhang, hugged her and said reluctantly, "When are you going back, lawyer Gu? We all miss you very much. "
"I'll go back when I'm done here," Gu Nianzhi said with a smile. She held her hand and said goodbye. "Take care of yourselves. Remember to help me clean my office. Don't let anyone take my place!"
"No problem! I will definitely help you keep an eye on your position! "The receptionist, Xiao Zhang, laughed and went to the security check first.
Lawyer Jin extended his hand to Gu Nianzhi and said with a smile, "Little Zhang doesn't know any better and only knows how to talk nonsense. Lawyer Gu, will you really go back to our small law firm? "
Gu Nianzhi smiled mischievously and said, "I'm also a shareholder. Lawyer Jin, you're not going to swallow my shares, are you?!"
Lawyer Jin laughed heartily. "No, no! Of course not! "
After sending Lawyer Jin and the receptionist, Xiao Zhang, off, Gu Nianzhi drove back to her "rented" apartment.
As soon as she came out of the elevator, Lu Jin ran out of his suite impatiently. He smiled and held out his hand to her. "Congratulations! Victory in the first battle! "
Gu Nianzhi's parting feelings disappeared the moment she saw Lu Jin.
She laughed. "Thank you, thank you! Is Director Lu done with his work? You sure are putting on airs today! "
Lu Jin immediately complained to her anxiously, "It's all Boss Lu's fault! He left as soon as he said he would, and he even dragged me away. Otherwise, I would have stayed until the end of the trial! "
The two of them chatted and laughed as they entered Gu Nianzhi's suite.
Lu Jin went to the kitchen to warm up the milk for her with ease.
Gu Nianzhi put down her briefcase and stretched. "Dad, I'm going to take a shower."
"Hurry up and go. There's rose essential oil that I personally made for you in the bathroom. You just need to drip two drops in the bathtub. It'll help with skin care, beauty, and rest your mind."
When Lu Jin had nothing to do, he would think about the things that women used. He only hoped that one day, he would be able to give it to his daughter as a gift.
Now that his wish had been fulfilled, he had changed his way of presenting his treasures.
Gu Nianzhi was extremely happy. She walked over and hugged Lu Jin's arm. She leaned her head on his shoulder and said reluctantly, "Dad, you're so good to me."
"I can be even better to you!" Lu Jin patted her head. "I'm warming up the milk for you. I'll call Boss Lu over to cook dinner later. What do you want to eat? Do you want paella? "
Lu Jin was eager to try. "I studied it with Boss Lu and wanted to cook it for you myself."
Gu Nianzhi thought of the choking smell of onions and quickly said, "No need, no need. I don't eat paella. I'll just have simple fried rice."
She remembered that it was the easiest to make. The simplest fried rice only needed eggs, green beans, and diced ham. It was also called San Xian fried rice.
She had all these ingredients in the fridge.
Lu Jin scratched his head and said embarrassedly, "San Xian fried rice? I haven't learned much about this. I'd better call Boss Lu over to cook! "
As he spoke, Lu Jin called Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan was reading documents in Lu Jin's suite across the street.
He picked up the phone and searched for ingredients from Lu Jin's fridge. He brought them over.
"Where's Nianzhi?" Lu Yuan didn't see Gu Nianzhi when he entered the door. He only saw her briefcase thrown on the sofa.
Lu Jin urged him to the kitchen and said with a smile, "Nianzhi is taking a shower. She's so tired today. Let her rest more. It's best to take a bath with rose essential oil to relieve her fatigue. "
Lu Yuan wanted to ask how the lawsuit was decided, but Gu Nianzhi was taking a shower, so he had no choice but to give up.
However, by the time Gu Nianzhi came out of the shower, Lu Yuan's four dishes and one soup were already ready.
Gu Nianzhi had experienced a day of intense mental work today. Lu Yuan had made her a stewed pigeon with gastrodia elata, which was very brain-nourishing.
On the table were golden-red pepper-and-salt prawns, spicy shredded pork with green onions and red peppers, steamed fresh abalone, and a stir-fried boletus with scallops in white sauce.
The main dish was the San Xian fried rice that Gu Nianzhi had personally ordered. The rice grains were full and golden, and each grain was soaked in egg juice. The fresh green beans were sweet and refreshing, and the fresh prawns were marinated with a little yellow wine. They were very delicious and didn't smell fishy at all.
The dishes on the table were delicious, nutritious, and could also replenish collagen.
Gu Nianzhi looked at the colorful feast on the table and her appetite was aroused. She immediately sat up straight and smiled at Lu Yuan. "Uncle Lu, you're so amazing. You're so good at cooking!"
"Of course." Lu Jin spoke as if he had cooked the dishes on the table. He used the serving chopsticks to pick up a pepper-and-salt prawn for Gu Nianzhi. "This is very delicious. Eat more."
He then scooped up a small bowl of San Xian fried rice for Gu Nianzhi with a large spoon. "This fried rice is too simple. Will it taste good?"
Gu Nianzhi smiled and said, "Cooking simple home-cooked dishes delicious is the true standard of a chef. This is called returning to the basics!"
She picked up the small spoon and scooped a small mouthful of San Xian fried rice into her mouth.
She had just taken a sip when she was stunned.
The taste of this fried rice …
She chewed carefully and her brows gradually furrowed.
She couldn't care less about eating other dishes. She scooped herself another large spoonful of San Xian fried rice. It was piled high in her small bowl.
"Huh? You like my San Xian fried rice that much? "Lu Yuan looked at her happily." Then eat more. If it's not enough, I'll cook more. There's a lot of ingredients, there's enough! "
Gu Nianzhi smiled. She barely ate any other dishes except the San Xian fried rice.
That was because the taste of the San Xian fried rice was too familiar!
She had a very good memory. She could never forget what she had seen, and she could remember the taste of what she had eaten once.
She was very familiar with the taste of Lu Yuan's San Xian fried rice.
That was because Huo Shaoheng had made it for her once in Song Jinning's small kitchen when she first went to the Huo family.
At that time, Song Jinning had expressed that she was very familiar with the taste.
Gu Nianzhi then asked Huo Shaoheng curiously, "… Why did your mother ask you that the taste was so familiar?"
Huo Shaoheng said, "Because this is the fried rice she used to make for me when I was young. I loved it when I was young."
If this was the taste Major General Huo was familiar with when he was young, how could Lu Yuan make it?
Gu Nianzhi's tongue was very sensitive. She could taste the slightest difference in taste.
However, this San Xian fried rice was 99% similar to the San Xian fried rice she had eaten in her memory.
