After jogging home, Gu Nianzhi went to the bathroom to take a shower and tidy her hair.
She dried her hair with the hairdryer while talking to Huo Shaoheng, who was leaning against the bathroom door.
"I met Reinitz today. I said I was interested in the security system of the computer database. He asked me to go to the Metropolitan Museum tomorrow to show me a 'company's' database security system."
Huo Shaoheng's eyes narrowed. "The New York Metropolitan Museum?"
"Yes, is there a problem?" Gu Nianzhi finished drying her hair and turned to look at him.
Huo Shaoheng thought of something and turned to Gu Nianzhi. "Change your clothes and come out for dinner. I have something to ask CEO Lu."
Lu Yuan was checking his email on the computer in the living room.
He was still the president of the Lu Corporation, so he couldn't be like Lu Jin, who didn't care about anything.
He still had to reply to work emails.
Huo Shaoheng sat down beside him and suddenly asked, "Did you send a coordinate signal to your phone at the Metropolitan Museum in New York?"
Lu Yuan's hand paused. He looked up at him and replied, "What's wrong? Did you get any inspiration from decoding the signal? Lu Jin said that decoding the signal can find the law and frequency of magnetic resonance, which will help you get in touch with us. Unfortunately, before we could get in touch, Nianzhi was kidnapped … "
Huo Shaoheng had long guessed that it had something to do with Lu Yuan. Now that he had confirmed it, he felt much more at ease. He said, "No wonder we received the signal and found traces of an abnormal magnetic field, but it quickly disappeared."
"… We don't have enough magnetic field energy storage. It's impossible to send this kind of enlightening signal without limit."
Lu Yuan closed the computer and couldn't help but think of Song Jinning.
After pondering for a while, he finally asked, "… Who received the signal?"
Huo Shaoheng turned his head away calmly. "… Ms. Song."
Lu Yuan's emotions surged when he heard the address. The images of the two of them interacting in the past flashed through his mind. They were like pencil drawings outlined by ink lines, both clear and illusory.
His self-control was extremely strong. Even if he missed her, he wouldn't indulge himself.
Without batting an eyelid, he stood up and walked to the window, looking out at Central Park.
Early summer was approaching, and the tender green leaves had just climbed up the branches. As far as the eye could see, it was all lush green.
After a while, Lu Yuan turned around and looked at Huo Shaoheng, who was even calmer than him. The corners of his mouth twitched. "… Did Ms. Song … send you here?"
Huo Shaoheng didn't raise his head to look at Lu Yuan. The corners of his lips curled up slightly, and he nodded. There was a hint of pride in his deep and magnetic voice. "Of course it's Ms. Song. Madam Song is the only one who can decipher the two magnetic field codes left by Gu Xiangwen. "
Lu Yuan recalled the stunning young girl from back then. Not only was she extremely intelligent, but she was also beautiful and moving. It was just that she was a little slow when it came to relationships.
He raised his head and smiled. Several years of time flashed past his mind. The autumn swan has faith, and the spring dream has no trace.
There was an indescribable sense of peace and tranquility in the living room.
Gu Nianzhi walked over with her hair up and looked at the two of them in confusion. "What are you guys talking about?"
Her soft and delicate voice was like the early summer wind blowing through the treetops. Huo Shaoheng's throat tightened, and he felt a little hot.
He also stood up and pulled out the chair next to him. "Come, sit down. Let's demonstrate tomorrow's operation."
Gu Nianzhi was elated. "Sure! I've been doing well these past few days, haven't I?! "
Her big eyes suddenly lit up, and her face was filled with "please praise me"!
Huo Shaoheng gently scratched her straight and exquisite little nose. "It's not bad. You barely passed."
"Huh?! I had to use all my strength to pass?! Major General Huo, aren't you being too strict?! " Gu Nianzhi felt that Lu Yuan was a little depressed, so she deliberately made an exaggerated joke to make him happy.
Lu Yuan turned around and leaned against the windowsill of the bay window. He smiled as he watched Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng act shamelessly.
Huo Shaoheng rubbed her head. His fingers gently touched the soft skin of her cheek, and he felt as if he had been electrocuted.
Looking away calmly, Huo Shaoheng turned on Lu Yuan's laptop and began to demonstrate for her.
The scene was a little dazzling and familiar. The decades of time in front of him seemed to have disappeared, and he had returned to the time he spent with that young girl.
The two of them didn't spend much time alone, and it was all for business, but every minute and second was precious.
Lu Yuan pursed his lips and walked out of the living room.
..
The weather the next day wasn't very good. It often rained in New York in early summer, and April and May were when it rained the most.
Gu Nianzhi held an umbrella with Monet's most famous painting of the lotus pond and walked towards the New York Metropolitan Museum.
The museum was also near Central Park, not far from Gu Nianzhi's apartment. It was within walking distance.
Reinitz wore a long black raincoat and stood upright on the steps of the museum. He held a black computer bag in one hand as his gaze scanned the crowd.
His blonde hair, blue eyes, and handsome and tall appearance were too eye-catching among the ordinary tourists. From time to time, bold girls would go over to strike up a conversation, trying to get his contact information.
Reinitz calmly used German to say that he didn't understand English.
Not long after, he saw that unique umbrella, as well as the woman smiling sweetly under the umbrella.
She looked up at him on the steps. Her starry eyes were the most dazzling scenery on a rainy day.
Reinitz immediately put on his most perfect smile and walked down the steps gracefully. He reached out his hand to her. "Did you have a good journey? It's raining today. I should have picked you up, but you didn't want to. "
He spoke English with a perfect British accent.
The girls who had been rejected by him saying that he didn't understand English were speechless.
Gu Nianzhi switched the umbrella with her other hand and quietly avoided Reinitz's outstretched hand. She smiled and nodded. "I live very close, so there's no need to go through so much trouble."
Her gaze fell directly on the computer bag in Reinitz's hand. "This is what you wanted to show me?"
Reinitz took Gu Nianzhi's umbrella and defused the awkwardness. "Go in, I'll take you to a good place."
Gu Nianzhi had never been to the museum before. Although it was very famous, for a child on the internet, looking at someone else's illustrated travel notes was basically a tour.
So even though she had never been here before, she was no stranger to the layout and exhibits.
She followed Reinitz into the museum and kept walking until they reached a corner that was rarely visited by tourists.
Reinitz turned around with a smile and winked at her. "Come, sit here. I brought you here because this is the most comfortable sofa in the entire museum. "
Gu Nianzhi was speechless.
She looked up at her surroundings.
It turned out that this was Lehman's art gallery, which housed the famous paintings that Mr. Lehman had collected throughout his life.
Gu Nianzhi looked at the biography of the person next to the oil painting, and her mood became even more complicated.
This person was actually the founder of the largest investment bank, Lehman Brothers, which had been "destroyed" by her father, Lu Jin.
Reinitz didn't know what Gu Nianzhi was thinking. He saw her staring blankly at the oil painting hanging in front of her and said, "This is a portrait of Princess de Broglie, the proud work of the neoclassical master, Anjer."
He looked at the oil painting, then at Gu Nianzhi. He smiled and whispered in her ear, "… Compared to you, she's just a maid. You're the princess."
He teased, "… I'm your attendant."
Gu Nianzhi came back to her senses and smiled. "You're really joking. She's a real princess, and I'm not a princess. Besides, I can't afford a attendant like you … "
Reinitz laughed at her retort and didn't continue to pester her.
He sat down on the sofa and turned on the computer. "Come, let me show you my computer database security system."
Gu Nianzhi keenly caught on to his words. "Your computer database security system? Didn't you say it was a company's computer database? Is this company yours? "
The corners of Reinitz's mouth twitched. He thought to himself that this girl really couldn't be underestimated. She was really too sharp. He accidentally let it slip, and she caught on to it.
However, this aroused his fighting spirit even more.
It's only fun to be evenly matched, right?
