"You're with me now, what's there to be jealous about? It's your little girlfriend who's going to be jealous. " Jiang Hongcha opened the lunchbox carelessly and put away her chopsticks. "Eat, I just bought this from a restaurant."
Mei Xiawen's heart itched when he saw Jiang Hongcha's nonchalant expression.
This woman always knew how to arouse his competitive spirit …
Mei Xiawen quickly finished his lunch and dragged Jiang Hongcha along for an afternoon nap.
…
"Huo Shao, these are the photos from the last few weeks." Huo Shao's orderly, Fan Jian, placed the intimate photos of Mei Xiawen and Jiang Hongcha on Huo Shao's desk. "What are you going to do? Should I send them to Nianzhi? "
Huo Shao held a cigarette in one hand and flipped through the photos with the other. He replied dryly, "Send them to her for what? She's underage and can't see them. "
As long as Mei Xiawen didn't go to America, Huo Shao wouldn't interfere.
Besides, Mei Xiawen had been chosen by Gu Nianzhi herself. Even if he was a scumbag, she had to find out for herself.
One does not learn without experience.
Gu Nianzhi had to learn to love on her own.
Huo Shao couldn't help her in that regard.
He threw the photos into a special drawer, locked it, and waved for Fan Jian to leave.
C City was in the middle of autumn at the end of September. It was getting hotter and hotter every day.
Huo Shao sat quietly for a while.
He was tall and stalwart, and filled the entire soft-backed chair. His breathtakingly handsome face was filled with a hint of determination and determination. He was faintly discernible in the curling white smoke.
The afterglow of the setting sun shone through the gaps in the blinds and painted horizontal bars on the floor. It was like an impassable staircase.
"Huo Shao?" Yin Shixiong knocked on the study door.
Huo Shao put out his cigarette and tossed it into the ashtray. "Come in."
"Oh, Huo Shao, why are you smoking more and more recently?" Yin Shixiong could smell the cigarette smoke in the room. He waved his hand nervously. "Did something happen?"
"No." Huo Shao pointed to the seat in front of him. "Sit. Is something the matter? "
"That's good." Yin Shixiong sat down and began to smile cheekily. "I just saw Fan Jian. I heard he took some … um … very hot photos. I came to Huo Shao's place to broaden my horizons and improve my professional skills in resisting seduction."
Huo Shaoheng opened the drawer and tossed the photo of Mei Xiawen and Jiang Hongcha at her. "See? You look like a boiled chicken. I'm afraid it won't improve your resistance to seduction, but it will improve your resistance to disgust."
Yin Shixiong took them and flipped through them excitedly. As he looked, he commented, "Hmm, she's quite fair and doesn't have any muscles. She does look like a boiled chicken, but this woman has a good figure. Look at how she can even do such difficult movements. She should be an experienced driver."
"You know so much."
"I learned it from Nianzhi. You know, I have to take care of her, so I have to learn these online languages. Otherwise, there will be a generation gap." Yin Shixiong said without raising his head. He had finally finished looking at all the photos in detail. He clicked his tongue in praise. "Fan Jian is the one who took the photos, right? That kid's getting better and better at controlling the lighting and shadows. There are a few photos where black and white are intertwined. They could be considered artistic photos. "
"Really?" Huo Shaoheng frowned. "Don't you think it's disgusting?"
"I think it's pretty good. Both of their figures are much better than the average person." Yin Shixiong chuckled. He looked Huo Shaoheng up and down with shifty eyes. "Huo Shao, don't tell me you're malfunctioning? That's not good. You need to be healthy. A man's erection is a sign of health. "
Huo Shaoheng threw the ashtray at Yin Shixiong's face.
Yin Shixiong dodged it with a tilt of his head. He laughed. "I'm just kidding. But I'm serious, Huo Shao. Don't you plan on getting married? You're 28 this year, right? "
Huo Shaoheng's personal secretaries knew his whereabouts best.
For the past six years, he hadn't had a single day of his own time. He had never been seen with any women in private. Of course, he didn't have a girlfriend.
"Mind your own business." Huo Shaoheng didn't even look at him. He turned on his computer and began working. "Check my schedule. Clear two days before and after Nianzhi's birthday."
"Oh! You're going to America to celebrate Nianzhi's birthday?! I'll go too, okay?! It's Nianzhi's 18th birthday! It's a big day! "Yin Shixiong's eyes lit up. He looked at Huo Shaoheng longingly.
"Yes, of course you have to go." Huo Shaoheng nodded. "I watched her grow up."
The chubby 12-year-old girl who had been nervous and neurotic all those years ago was a completely different person now.
Her 18th birthday was a big day not only for Gu Nianzhi, but for all of them as well.
Huo Shaoheng was going to America to celebrate Gu Nianzhi's birthday. He couldn't go in his real identity.
But that wasn't a problem for the Special Ops.
Yin Shixiong was already used to doing things like this.
…
Two weeks later, He Zhichu finally returned.
He got off the plane. The first thing he did was go to the Capitol Building to see what Gu Nianzhi was up to.
Gu Nianzhi wasn't in the Appropriations Committee office.
"Mary, where's my student?" He Zhichu smiled as he placed a small gift on Mary's desk.
Mary gestured and said dramatically, "You're asking about Gu, right? She went to another office to chat. She's free these past few days, so she's been going around a lot. Everyone here knows her. She's a happy little rose. "
Although He Zhichu was still smiling, the veins on his forehead were beginning to show.
Fine, this little girl won't do her job properly. She's running around everywhere. She really needs to be taught a lesson.
He Zhichu turned and walked out.
…
He stood in the doorway of the Committee for Freedom of Ocean Travel, his hands in his trouser pockets. He looked at a pretty girl in a pink Chanel dress suit. She stood out among the group of senators and staff in black and white suits.
It was Gu Nianzhi. She sat next to John, the chairman of the Committee for Freedom of Ocean Travel, and chatted with him with a smile.
For the past two weeks, Gu Nianzhi hadn't been able to work at the Committee of Appropriations. Something had happened to her account, and it was completely unusable.
He Zhichu wasn't around, and she didn't want to go see Wen Shouyi. She didn't want to do anything, so she hung around the committees every day. She learned from Brother Huang's ability to socialize with people and quickly became one with everyone.
The councilors and staff members were very happy to have a cute and witty Asian girl to chat with in their spare time.
"Mr. John, are you sure the United States really wants to withdraw from the International Maritime Convention? But I know that the United States was one of the drafters of the convention. "Gu Nianzhi's large eyes flashed, and she acted as if she didn't have an IQ.
"Your pretty little brain won't be able to understand this." John chuckled and shook his head. He turned on his computer and showed her a document. "Do you know what this is?"
Gu Nianzhi frowned and leaned over to see a very old scanned document appear on John's computer screen.
The paper was yellowed, and she didn't know how long it had been there.
She looked at the signature on the document, and her red lips parted. "Oh? It's a document from the last century?! "
"Yes, you know about the League of Nations, right? The United States was the initiator, but we didn't join because the Senate objected. "John laughed." Interesting, isn't it? Let me tell you, international politics is like this. Don't expect so-called law and fairness. Everything is about power, and it's all about national interest. If joining the convention is in our national interest, then we will definitely join. Now that this convention is hindering our national interest, why are we still in it? Are we just waiting to be trampled on? "
"… Don't you think it's a bit embarrassing for a country to go back on its word?" Gu Nianzhi glanced at John. "It's the United States, a superpower."
John rolled his eyes arrogantly. "I don't care what other countries think of us. They can die if they don't like it. "
Gu Nianzhi gave him a thumbs up. "Awesome! As expected of the Overlord of Western Chu! "
"What's the Overlord of Western Chu?" John asked eagerly.
Gu Nianzhi grunted, and was just thinking about how to euphemistically describe the Overlord of Western Chu's suicide when she heard a familiar cough from the door.
Gu Nianzhi turned around in surprise.
He Zhichu stood at the door with a handsome face, but his expression was as cold as arctic ice. His cold gaze fell on Gu Nianzhi, as if he wanted to freeze her into a statue.
She didn't care at all, nor was she afraid. She giggled and walked quickly to his side. She looked up in surprise. "Professor He, you're finally back! I've missed you so much! "
He Zhichu's anger dissipated at Gu Nianzhi's excited greeting.
He reached out and took her arm. He nodded at the people in the office and led her away.
Brother Huang knew He Zhichu had arrived and quickly chased after him. However, the hallway was already empty.
He Zhichu had already left with Gu Nianzhi.
"Professor He, you're finally back. Ah, the last two weeks have been like a year for me. "Gu Nianzhi's mouth was especially sweet as she poured all sorts of heartwarming words on He Zhichu.
The corners of He Zhichu's lips curved higher and higher, and the frost on his face melted away.
They went to Gu Nianzhi's office to retrieve her small backpack and took her to the Rolls-Royce. He ordered the driver, "Back to the manor."
Gu Nianzhi finally said uneasily, "… Professor He, you just got back?"
He Zhichu nodded. "I just got off the plane." He turned to study her delicate, pretty face. "You're doing well, I see you've put on a lot of weight."
"Oh, no way!" Gu Nianzhi covered her face with both hands. She grew nervous. "Looks like I need to lose weight again. I won't have dinner when I get home."
He Zhichu rolled his eyes. "You're just a kid, why would you want to lose weight? Be careful that you don't grow taller. "
"I'm already tall enough. I don't need to grow any taller." Gu Nianzhi insisted. "If I grow any taller, I'll grow horizontally."
He Zhichu's gaze fell to the pair of high heels she was wearing. "Oh? You even know how to wear heels now? "
Gu Nianzhi shrank back in embarrassment. "That's to match the dress I'm wearing …"
He Zhichu couldn't help reaching out to pat her head. "You really missed me?"
"I really did." Gu Nianzhi nodded vigorously. "When you weren't there, Teaching Assistant Wen was like a monkey in a cage without a tiger!"
Then, she blahblah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.
He Zhichu's expression grew darker as he listened. Finally, he said slowly, "… You missed me because you wanted me to come back and support you?"
"Professor He, you're so smart. You hit the nail on the head!" Gu Nianzhi gave him a thumbs up. "If you hadn't come back, I would've wasted the last six months. I wouldn't have been able to do anything." She then told him about the problems with her account.
He Zhichu didn't respond. He leaned against the back seat and rubbed his forehead helplessly.
He knew this heartless little girl didn't miss him at all. She just wanted to use him to punish others …
"Professor He? Are you tired? "Gu Nianzhi couldn't sit still." Let me go back. You should rest for a few more days. "
He Zhichu let go of her and pursed his lips. His shimmering, sultry eyes grew colder and colder. It matched perfectly with his cold expression.
He looked at her for a while and asked, "I wasn't here for two weeks and you didn't do anything?"
"I tried. I also found the reason you mentioned, but my account was later demoted to the same level as a wanderer. I couldn't do anything at all." Gu Nianzhi shrugged. "If you don't believe me, you can look it up yourself."
Without another word, He Zhichu took out his phone and made a call to the Congress.
Gu Nianzhi's words were quickly confirmed.
The person who answered the phone was very polite to He Zhichu. He smiled and promised, "As long as Mr. He signs, we will immediately release your student's privileges."
"Ok, I'll sign it tomorrow." He Zhichu understood the whole story and didn't scold Gu Nianzhi anymore. He looked at her sideways. "Why don't you go to Teaching Assistant Wen? She can handle this kind of thing. "
"… I don't want to deal with her," Gu Nianzhi said bluntly. Gu Nianzhi said bluntly, "You're not here. What if she sets another trap for me to jump into? Who am I going to cry for?"
He Zhichu snorted and continued to rub her head. "Now you're taking the opportunity to cry for me?"
"I'm not crying. I'm seriously complaining, okay? " Gu Nianzhi turned to avoid his hand. "Please don't rub my head anymore. I'm almost 18."
He Zhichu withdrew his hand. His expression was cold. "I know. I don't need you to remind me."
Gu Nianzhi actually did have something to remind him about, but he didn't seem to want to talk. She could only shut her mouth and look at the scenery outside the car.
The Rolls-Royce drove them quietly and smoothly to He Zhichu's manor near the Potomac River.
The large iron gate opened to both sides, revealing an asphalt road leading to the white mansion in front. The road was lined with green grass, and there were a few flower beds scattered on the grass.
There were Hispanic gardeners trimming the branches in the flower beds.
When they saw the Rolls-Royce drive in, everyone stopped what they were doing and waved at the big car.
Gu Nianzhi looked at it all curiously. She turned to He Zhichu. "Professor He, can a lawyer make that much money?!"
Even if it was possible, He Zhichu would only have that much money when he was in his 70s or 80s.
But looking at his resume, he was only 28 years old!
No matter how capable he was, how did he make so much money in just three short years?
He Zhichu could see her doubts but didn't plan on answering them.
He got out of the car with a cold expression. He stood beside the car and opened the door for Gu Nianzhi to get out.
Whether it was the Rolls-Royce driver, the gardeners in the flower beds, or the housekeeper coming up to greet them, they were all dumbfounded.
