"Me?" Huo Shaoheng shook his head slowly. "I never seduce you. I'm wooing you."
Gu Nianzhi's smile faded as she pushed him away forcefully. She opened the car door and jumped out. She said seriously, "Mr. Peter, I can't sit in your car if you keep touching me like this."
Huo Shaoheng sat in the car and looked down at her. He loved her very much, but he still had to pretend to be hurt and disappointed. After a moment of silence, he said, "You don't like me that much? You said that I look exactly like the person you like. Can't you just treat me as his substitute? "
"Using you as his substitute is a humiliation to him, a humiliation to you, and a humiliation to myself." Gu Nianzhi didn't know what Huo Shaoheng meant, but she was very angry that he said it, even if it was just an act.
In his heart, was she such a shallow woman who only cared about looks?
… Fine, her feelings for him were indeed related to his looks, but he couldn't make her fall in love with him just because of his looks.
Since he didn't understand this, she decided not to try to expose him.
Unless he was willing to admit who he really was in front of her, he wouldn't be able to get her to be nice to him at all.
"What's so good about him? Why are you so dead set on him? " Huo Shaoheng curled his lips, his eyes smiling. "Besides, he's so good, but it's useless if he's not by your side."
Gu Nianzhi rolled her eyes and said angrily, "I don't accept you not because you're not good, but because I still love him. Love can only accommodate two people. It's too crowded with one more person. "
"Oh? Then when you don't love him anymore, will you consider me? "Huo Shaoheng leaned forward and gently sniffed her hair.
This woman was so toxic, he couldn't quit …
Gu Nianzhi's lips twitched. "Then wait until I don't love him anymore." She picked up her phone and began dialing expressionlessly.
"What are you doing?" Huo Shaoheng sensed it and snatched the phone. "You want to take a taxi?"
"Yeah, how can I take a taxi with you like this? What if you go berserk and I can't beat you? Who am I going to cry to if I lose? "Gu Nianzhi snatched her phone back with a straight face." Don't touch other people's phones. You're invading my privacy! "
An indescribable emotion flashed through Huo Shaoheng's eyes.
It wasn't because of Gu Nianzhi's steadfastness, but because of her clear mind and resolute determination.
However, he also knew very well that Gu Nianzhi might really break up with him if she was touched by someone else.
Because she was loyal to her own heart, her own feelings.
She did not accept another man because she still loved him.
When she doesn't love him, she certainly has the right to choose a new man.
The sense of danger in Huo Shaoheng's heart intensified.
He stopped teasing her and reached out to open the car door. He calmly said, "Alright, you win. Get in."
Gu Nianzhi's hand rested on the armrest next to the car seat. Just as she was about to climb up, Huo Shaoheng had already wrapped his arms around her waist and hugged her, trapping her between the car seat and his chest. He continued, "I won't take another step forward until you give up on that person. But you have to promise me that I'll be the first in line for you. Once you give up on the person you like, you have to think about me first. "
Gu Nianzhi glared at Huo Shaoheng angrily. Her clear eyes could almost clearly see his reflection.
She secretly gritted her teeth and thought that this Huo Shao was too much of a pervert. How could he say something like that …
Giving up on the person in front of her and thinking about the person he was now, in the end, wasn't it still the same person?!
He really wasn't at a disadvantage at all. Was he sure he had her?
Gu Nianzhi snorted and frowned. "No. If I give up on him, I'll definitely have to find another person who's completely different. I'll only find another ex-boyfriend who's exactly like him if I lose my mind! "
Huo Shaoheng seemed to be shocked by the word "ex-boyfriend" and didn't speak for a long time.
He quietly got into the car, started it, and drove all the way to the parking lot under the revolving restaurant on the Third Ring Road without saying another word.
Gu Nianzhi was secretly pleased with herself. She knew that she had finally turned the tables.
She got out of the car in an extremely good mood, glanced at the parking lot, and walked towards the elevator.
The revolving restaurant was on the top two floors of the skyscraper.
The top floor was the most luxurious. Sitting there, one could see the scenery of the imperial capital from 360 degrees.
The top floor was the most luxurious. Sitting there, one could have a 360-degree view of the imperial capital.
Gu Nianzhi had booked a seat on the floor below the top floor.
However, just as she walked out of the elevator, her phone rang. It was Luo Piaopiao calling.
Gu Nianzhi picked up the call and said with a smile, "I'm already here. Where are you?"
Luo Piaopiao was also smiling and said, "I'm on the top floor of the revolving restaurant, which is the highest floor. Are you going to treat me to dinner on the highest floor?"
Gu Nianzhi choked and laughed dryly. "Cousin Luo, stop messing with me. How could I afford it? I'm at the top of the floor below. "
"That won't do. You have to come to the top floor, or I won't eat!" Luo Piaopiao's crisp laughter came from the phone. "Actually, it's not as expensive as you think, and the scenery here is beautiful. I only eat this once a year. At most, I'll treat you."
Gu Nianzhi let it go when she said that.
Indeed, as Luo Piaopiao had said, it wasn't that she couldn't afford it, so why be so stingy?
She walked in front and followed Huo Shaoheng to the floor above the revolving restaurant, which was the top floor of the skyscraper.
The elevator showed that it was the 36th floor.
It was indeed the top floor. There were very few people eating here.
Other than her and Huo Shaoheng, no one else came up.
Gu Nianzhi was a little surprised.
No matter how expensive the restaurant was, the imperial capital had never lacked rich people.
Why was she and Huo Shaoheng the only ones walking in?
Something wasn't right.
Huo Shaoheng clearly realized it as well. He immediately took a step forward and stood in front of Gu Nianzhi.
In the oval revolving restaurant, there were crystal clear glass windows all around. From here, one could see the white clouds floating in the blue sky like cotton candy.
The restaurant slowly rotated like a merry-go-round. The dining table was neatly arranged with cutlery and tea. It was as if someone had just held a banquet here, but now it was empty.
Time seemed to have stopped. For a moment, Gu Nianzhi had the illusion that she had walked into a deserted set.
"Luo Piaopiao?" Gu Nianzhi walked out from behind Huo Shaoheng and stood beside him. She called out tentatively.
"Ha! Are you surprised?! "Luo Piaopiao's voice suddenly came from the side of the hall.
Immediately after, men in suits and leather shoes and elegantly dressed women walked out from the side door on the other side of the hall.
Walking at the front was Luo Piaopiao, who was wearing a red Chanel suit, and an old man with white hair and a youthful face. He was wearing a Tang suit with purple sable fur edges.
Gu Nianzhi was no stranger to this old man. He was Qin Yaoguang's father, Old Master Qin.
Behind Old Master Qin walked a middle-aged man. Gu Nianzhi had also seen him in court. He seemed to be Old Master Qin's nephew.
This time, they had brought their womenfolk with them.
Not long after, the entire restaurant was filled with people.
Luo Piaopiao held Old Master Qin's arm and walked to Gu Nianzhi with a smile on her face. She waved at her. "I said there's a surprise, right? Uncle said that this meal will be on him. We've already booked this place for today. Cousin Gu, come and sit! "
"You're Nianzhi, right? I'm your aunt. I've heard of your name before. Seeing you today, I realized that you're even prettier than in the photo. "
"I'm your second aunt. You even ate at my house when you were young."
"I'm your cousin …"
"I'm your cousin …"
"I've always wanted to see you, but your mother always said that it wasn't the right time. I didn't expect to see you until now."
The people of the Qin family almost swarmed up and surrounded Gu Nianzhi, introducing themselves one by one.
Their smiles were extremely sincere and warm, and they looked like they knew how to behave better than Qin Yaoguang.
As the saying went, one didn't hit a smiling person. Gu Nianzhi wouldn't treat everyone in the Qin family coldly.
As she greeted these people, she took the opportunity to rub Luo Piaopiao's head. She pulled out a few strands of hair and quietly rubbed them in her hand. "Cousin Luo, you're so mean. Why didn't you tell me beforehand?"
Luo Piaopiao smiled and said, "I usually don't do such a good thing. Only you have such a big deal!"
"Please spare me. Please don't give me such face. I can't afford it." Gu Nianzhi smiled and rubbed her head again, successfully ruffling her hair into a bird's nest.
Luo Piaopiao accidentally saw her appearance in the mirror on the side of the hall and stomped her feet in anger. "Cousin Gu! Let go! "
She quickly said to Old Master Qin, "Granduncle, I'm going to the bathroom."
She pointed at her hair, which had been messed up by Gu Nianzhi.
Gu Nianzhi took the opportunity to say, "I'll go too. I'll help Cousin Luo clean up."
Old Master Qin laughed loudly. "Go on, go on. You little girls are so naughty!"
Gu Nianzhi and Luo Piaopiao went to the bathroom. Old Master Qin narrowed his eyes and looked at Huo Shaoheng. He nodded and said, "It's Mr. Peter? We met once. "
It was at the He family's Christmas party.
Huo Shaoheng's face was cold as he said unhappily, "It was just a dinner party between Miss Gu and Miss Luo. Why did so many people suddenly come? Are all Huaxia people so untrustworthy? "
"Although Mr. Peter has an Asian face, he's actually a Soviet on the inside." Old Master Qin sighed. "This is our family ties. We Huaxia people value family ties the most. You don't understand. However, since you're here, you're a guest. Come, sit down, and let's have a drink! "
Huo Shaoheng was secretly cursing in his heart, but he still stood at the door with a cold expression. He said, "I'm going to see Miss Gu. Excuse me." As he spoke, he walked towards the bathroom.
Old Master Qin was stunned for a moment before he quickly said, "Mr. Peter? That's the women's bathroom. Why don't you wait here? "
"It's fine. I'll wait at the door." Huo Shaoheng waved his hand and strode towards the bathroom.
Old Master Qin's eyes flashed with disdain. He turned to his family and said, "Everyone, sit down. Let the waiter serve the dishes."
They had booked the entire floor, and the dishes had been ordered a long time ago.
In the ladies' bathroom, Gu Nianzhi was rearranging Luo Piaopiao's hairstyle and took the opportunity to rub off more hair.
She picked up the fallen hair one by one and put them all in her small plastic bag when Luo Piaopiao wasn't paying attention.
Luo Piaopiao touched up her makeup in the mirror and said angrily, "Cousin Gu, I didn't expect you to be so naughty!"
As the two of them spoke, Luo Piaopiao's phone suddenly rang. She took out her phone from her bag and swiped it open to pick it up.
No one spoke on the other end of the phone, but the sound of a mechanical countdown could be heard.
"Ten, nine, eight …"
Outside the bathroom, Huo Shaoheng leaned against the outer wall with a cold expression. The Bluetooth headset hidden in his ear suddenly made a ticking sound.
This kind of sound was no stranger to the KGB. It was no stranger to all the professional intelligence personnel in the world who had carried out assassinations.
It was the sound of a remote bomb starting to count down!
Huo Shaoheng's expression froze. He quickly turned around and kicked open the bathroom door. He carried Gu Nianzhi, who had her back facing him, into his arms and quickly rushed towards the door.
Boom!
An earth-shattering explosion came from behind them. An explosive heat wave hit them like flames. The huge impact knocked Huo Shaoheng and Gu Nianzhi against the opposite wall!
