Guo Huining felt relieved and gratefully grasped Huo Guanchen's hand. Her worry quickly turned to joy and she shook Huo Guanchen's hand excitedly. "Thank you, General Huo! Thank you, General Huo! I'll definitely help you take care of the people around Grandfather Huo! "
Huo Guanchen smiled and pulled his hand away. "I hope Miss Guo doesn't think you're overqualified. You used to manage such a large company, and now you're helping us take care of Grandfather Huo. You're basically a housekeeper …"
"Of course not! I have nothing better to do now, so I'm more than happy to help you! "
Guo Huining was very enthusiastic and continued to ask, "Then when do you need me to start work?"
Zhang Baochen frowned. "Second Brother, Father is living with us now. Can we take care of him ourselves?"
He was still hoping that he would be filial to his father so that he could ask Huo Guanchen for some benefits …
They all knew that Grandfather Huo actually had nothing left. The only thing he could rely on was his filial son, Huo Guanchen.
There was also Huo Guanchen's son, Huo Shaoheng. Although he wasn't very obedient, he was still a grandson. He couldn't ignore his own grandfather's matters.
Huo Guanchen smiled. "Baochen, it's not easy to take care of the elderly, especially in Father's situation. We need professionals. If you're willing, you can come and keep Grandfather Huo company every day. "
"Oh? Really?! "Zhang Baochen perked up." Are we going to the Huo Residence in the Military HQ?! "
Did this mean that their family could go back like this?!
As long as they could return to the Huo Residence in the Military HQ, at least Zhang Wenna and Zhang Wenjie wouldn't have to worry about their jobs anymore.
The departments that had fired them would definitely regret it now.
Guo Huining was also a little excited.
She didn't expect someone of Huo Guanchen's status to be so easy to deal with. He was much easier than Madam Hong!
Her eyes widened and her entire face lit up. "Where is the Military HQ? General Huo, this is my cell phone number. Please send me your address. I'll go to your house tomorrow to help you take care of Grandfather Huo! "
Huo Guanchen raised his hand slightly to calm Zhang Baochen and Guo Huining down as he said, "My grandfather's condition isn't suitable for him to return to the military compound for the time being. I have an apartment outside, and I've already renovated it over the past month. In a few days, I'll send a physiotherapist and nurse to Baochen's place to pick him up."
"Ah? Father, aren't you going back to the military compound? "Zhang Baochen blurted out, unable to hide his disappointment.
Huo Guanchen smiled nonchalantly. "The military compound has very high security requirements. There are too many people taking care of the old man, so the background check would take too long. It's not practical. Besides, I'm busy with work now and don't have time to stay at home. It doesn't matter if you stay in the military compound or not. "
How could it be the same!
Guo Huining and Zhang Baochen screamed in their hearts at the same time.
However, in front of Huo Guanchen, neither of them dared to say a word.
Guo Huining was the first to react. She smiled bitterly and said, "That's good too. With my current condition, I don't think I'll be able to pass the background check. "
"What happened to you?" Huo Guanchen asked with concern. "If it's not serious, I can think of something."
Guo Huining didn't dare to hide anything. She told him about the incident with the Hong Corporation and said, "I shouldn't have kept the battery from them, but it was an expedient measure for the sake of going public. Now, the other company is no longer pursuing the matter and has reached an agreement with the Hong Corporation to use the battery as long as they pay the patent fees and some interest. "
"Damn it, Old Madam Hong always looked down on me and wanted to kill me!" Guo Huining said as she wiped her tears and sobbed. "I've worked hard for so many years, even if I don't have any merits. In the end, not only did they chase me out, but they also took back my apartment!"
Her luxurious penthouse apartment …
Old Madam Hong is really cunning!
Guo Huining gritted her teeth at the thought of it.
"… How could they take back your apartment?" Even Zhang Baochen was confused. "Isn't your name on the property ownership certificate?"
Guo Huining choked and blushed. She said vaguely, "It was bought under the company's name. I'm a senior executive and also the fiancée of the young master of the Hong Corporation. They said it was for me and that I'd transfer ownership after I got married …"
Huo Guanchen understood and nodded. He smiled and said, "Then the Hong Corporation is really being unkind. Although you're not married, you've been engaged to the young master of the Hong Corporation for so many years. Even if you break up, you don't have to take back the apartment. "
Guo Huining had never heard such caring words before. A strange feeling rose in her heart.
She knew what she wanted ever since she graduated from university.
All these years, she had been aggressive and relied on her own abilities to achieve a breakthrough in social class. Not only did she get engaged to the son of a wealthy family like Hong Ziqi, but she also accumulated a considerable amount of wealth.
However, all of these things were obtained through her hard work.
She thought to herself, she earned every penny by herself, but what was there to be proud of?
Those women who weren't as capable as her still had men to spend money on, but what about herself?
Guo Huining's heart ached.
She looked deeply at Huo Guanchen.
There had never been a man who could tug at her heartstrings like Huo Guanchen did. He was powerful, mature, handsome, and as tall as a mountain. He could also take care of her emotions and give her the feeling that she could rely on him.
She suddenly wanted to be a little woman. Even if she had to stay at home to take care of her husband and children and not go out to work, she would be happy to do so …
"Thank you, General Huo, for being fair." Guo Huining's eyes were red. "I'm sorry, I'm too touched. Don't worry, leave Grandfather Huo to me. I'll help you take care of your other home. Also, I'm still in contact with Dr. Tony. If there's a need, we can get Dr. Tony to do regular checkups for Grandfather Huo. "
Huo Guanchen nodded slightly. "Then I'll have to trouble Miss Guo. Oh yes, how much is the surgery fee for Dr. Tony? Can Miss Guo give us a copy of the bill? "
Zhang Baochen's heart tightened and his face contorted.
He knew Huo Guanchen had money, but he didn't …
He couldn't even compare to Huo Guanchen.
Fortunately, Huo Guanchen was considerate of Zhang Baochen's family situation. He added, "I'll pay."
Guo Huining smiled. "You don't have to worry about that. When Dr. Tony came to the Huaxia Empire for a collaboration, the charity organization covered all the expenses. Grandfather Huo's surgery fee was included. "
"That won't do. I'm a public official, I can't use the charity organization's donations. " Huo Guanchen became serious. "If Miss Guo doesn't bring the bill, then give me Dr. Tony's contact details. I'll get my personal secretary to contact him for the bill."
"General Huo is so selfless …" Guo Huining smiled sheepishly. Her eyes flickered. "I'll ask Dr. Tony when I get back and see how the charity organization handles the bill."
"Ok, the money paid by the charity organization can be returned. I can pay Dr. Tony's bill myself."
Guo Huining nodded and sent a text to Dou Aiyan.
Dou Aiyan received the text and quickly discussed the arrangements with her superiors.
Huo Guanchen didn't stay long. He left after finishing a cup of tea, leaving Zhang Baochen and Guo Huining to continue eating dinner.
Huo Guanchen leaned against the back seat of the car after coming out of House on the Lake. He closed his eyes and thought for a while. He said to his personal secretary, "Get someone to check on Guo Huining's situation. See if she's telling the truth."
Although Huo Guanchen didn't need to bring his personal secretary to a private dinner, he always brought other communication devices with him. Not only could he record the conversation, but he could also record it. This was so that the security personnel and personal secretary who didn't go in could keep track of the situation inside.
If anything happened, they could deal with it immediately.
Huo Guanchen's people had seen and heard what happened in the private room of the restaurant.
Of course, they knew what Guo Huining had said about her experience.
"Ok, Chief. We've already checked." Huo Guanchen's personal secretary showed him the information.
Huo Guanchen nodded. He looked out the window and thought about what he saw earlier.
His elder brother and his ex-wife got into the same car and drove away …
Are they on a date?
And then?
