It was late autumn in the Imperial Capital, and it was already dark at 6pm.
Gu Nianzhi sat in the passenger seat next to Huo Shaoheng and watched the gates of the military headquarters getting closer and closer.
Huo Shaoheng had a pass in his car, so he didn't even need to stop when he entered. He only slowed down and waited for the automatic railing to rise before driving straight in.
Gu Nianzhi smiled as she looked around and suddenly saw a familiar figure at the gate from the corner of her eye.
"Huo Shao, slow down." Gu Nianzhi quickly turned back to look in the direction of the gate.
Huo Shaoheng stepped on the brakes and glanced at the rearview mirror.
Gu Nianzhi looked at it for a while and said in surprise, "That woman looks like Guo Huining? What's she doing here? "
Guo Huining wore a half-length mustard yellow merino cardigan, black slim-fit wool pants, and nude ankle boots that were fashionable and comfortable. She smiled warmly and carried an insulated lunch box as she patiently spoke to the soldier standing guard at the gate, "Little comrade, can you let me in? I'm going to deliver food to General Huo. "
"General Huo? Which General Huo? Do you have a pass? "The soldier asked sternly, unwilling to bend the rules.
Guo Huining shook her head, "Not yet, but call General Huo. He knows me. I'm Guo Huining, and I'm currently helping him take care of his father."
The soldier replied, "Oh, you're a babysitter? Wait a minute. "He went back to the guard post to make the call.
At that moment, Guo Huining saw that there seemed to be no one at the gate. She carried the insulated lunch box and stepped over the thigh-high automatic railing in front of her to hurry into the compound.
However, she had only taken a few steps when she heard the sound of guns being cocked.
A few soldiers wearing black uniforms and masks appeared out of nowhere with automatic rifles in their hands.
Guo Huining screamed in fear and quickly raised her hands.
The insulated lunch box dangled between her fingers, looking somewhat comical.
However, the soldiers with guns raised and masks did not find it funny. They all looked at her coldly, their actions full of murderous intent.
No wonder they were the guards of the military headquarters compound. Regular compound guards couldn't compare to them.
The soldier who had returned to the guard post to make the call threw the phone away and ran out to drag Guo Huining out. He said anxiously, "What's wrong with you, female comrade? I told you not to enter, yet you still dared to barge in?! What kind of place is this? Do you want to die?! "
Guo Huining was scared out of her wits just now, but after being dragged back by this little warrior, she became bolder again.
Because the armed soldiers in black uniforms had already retreated and disappeared.
She patted her chest with lingering fear and fiercely pushed the little soldier, saying, "Why are you touching me?! I'm warning you, I'm a lawyer. You're suspected of abusing your power for personal gain and deliberately harassing me! "
"I … I … I … I didn't!" The young soldier panicked and hugged his spear tightly. "Don't slander me!"
"You're still quarreling with the commoners! How did you become a soldier? You only know how to bully the common people! "Guo Huining's many years as a senior executive wasn't for nothing. Her expression was actually quite scary.
The young soldier had just joined the army not long ago, so he was no match for Guo Huining, who often dealt with the law. In just three sentences, Guo Huining had already forced him to tell her his name and unit number, saying that she planned to sue him for harassing her.
"I didn't! I didn't … "This was the only thing the young soldier could say over and over again. His eyes were red.
Guo Huining stretched out her arm and pointed to the place where the young soldier had dragged her. "You dare say that you didn't touch me just now?! I know you have surveillance cameras here! If you don't believe me, let's look at the surveillance cameras! "
"… You broke the rules! I was kind enough to pull you out! "The young soldier was very angry. He was kind enough to save someone, but he was actually being blamed.
But if he hadn't pulled her out, she might have been shot to death …
Although the young soldier was very angry, he still didn't regret saving her.
"So you admit that you touched me?! Touching my body without my consent is sexual harassment! "Guo Huining sneered." Unless … you let me in now. I'm going to deliver food to General Huo, not do anything else. If you don't believe me, you can come with me. "
"I can't go." The young soldier shook his head and said honestly, "I'm about to change shifts. You can't go in."
"Then you'd rather be accused of sexual harassment than let me in?" Guo Huining was very surprised. She didn't expect a small soldier to be so principled. This was too rare in the scheming business world.
The young soldier tried his best to hold back his tears, but he still shook his head. He refused to leave his post, and he refused to let Guo Huining in.
It was already late, and there were not many people entering or leaving the entrance of the military headquarters.
There were a few tall ginkgo trees at the entrance, and the golden leaves fell all over the ground like small fans.
The young soldier wasn't the only one on guard duty here, but everyone was sticking to their posts, and no one came out to watch the show.
Gu Nianzhi and Lu Jin watched with relish.
Lu Jin could read lips. From his angle, he could only see Guo Huining speak, but not the young soldier.
However, it was enough to see Guo Huining speak.
Lu Jin read her lips and relayed what she said to Gu Nianzhi.
Gu Nianzhi was both angry and amused. She said, "Why would Guo Huining deliver food to General Huo? What's their relationship? "
Huo Shaoheng stopped the car and got out of the car without a word. He walked towards the gate.
Gu Nianzhi quickly unbuckled her seatbelt and got out of the car excitedly.
Lu Jin and she walked behind Huo Shaoheng and quietly hid behind a big tree by the side of the road to peek.
Huo Shaoheng came to the gate of the courtyard and said to the young soldier, "There's nothing else for you to do. Go back and stand guard."
The young soldier turned around and saw Huo Shaoheng's epaulet. He immediately stood at attention and saluted. "Hello, Chief!"
Huo Shaoheng nodded and said in a low voice, "Yes, go back and stand guard. I saw what happened just now. You're not wrong. Don't worry. "
The young soldier was overjoyed. Finally, someone had spoken up for him.
"Thank you, Chief!" He saluted Huo Shaoheng again and happily returned to his sentry post.
Guo Huining blushed when she saw that it was Huo Shaoheng. She said embarrassedly, "It's Major General Huo. I was actually just joking with him. I won't really sue him."
"You won't, but I will." Huo Shaoheng turned on his Bluetooth headset and connected the phone to the legal department at the military headquarters. He said calmly, "The legal department? I have a woman who is deliberately harassing our soldiers on duty and trying to fish in troubled waters. Come and investigate her in case a spy sneaks in. "
Guo Huining panicked. "Major General Huo, you can't talk nonsense! I'm here to deliver food to your father! How could I be a spy?! If I were a spy, would General Huo entrust his father to me to take care of him?! "
Huo Shaoheng put his hands behind his back and said calmly, "That's hard to say. General Huo himself has always had problems with his judgment. It's entirely possible that he's luring a wolf into his house. "
As they spoke, the people from the legal department at the military headquarters had already driven over.
"Hello, Chief." The leading legal officer on duty saluted and greeted Huo Shaoheng. "May I ask who is harassing our soldiers on duty and trying to fish in troubled waters?"
Huo Shaoheng raised his chin in Guo Huining's direction. "It's her."
"You can't arrest people randomly! I'm here to deliver dinner to General Huo! General Huo asked me to help him take care of his father! "Guo Huining was instantly filled with regret.
She had only seen how delicious the chef's food was, so she had asked the chef to make an extra dish on purpose to deliver it to Huo Guanchen. She wanted to take the opportunity to see what the real Huo Manor was like.
Since she had made up her mind to be with Huo Guanchen, she needed to understand more about him.
She didn't expect that she couldn't even enter the courtyard.
Guo Huining was disheartened.
The people from the legal department saw that Guo Huining had said she was here to deliver food to General Huo, but Huo Shaoheng had requested to take her away for investigation. They had no choice but to call Huo Guanchen.
Huo Guanchen didn't pick up. His personal secretary did.
Seeing that Huo Shaoheng was involved, the personal secretary quickly explained the situation to Huo Guanchen.
Huo Guanchen was in his study looking at a document. He didn't want to see Guo Huining, but now that Huo Shaoheng was involved, he had no choice but to ignore him.
"I'll go take a look."
Huo Guanchen brought his personal secretary to the entrance of the courtyard in a private car.
As soon as she saw him, Guo Huining's eyes reddened and she immediately started crying.
"General Huo, you're finally here. I just wanted to bring you dinner, but they wouldn't let me in … They even said I was a spy … sob sob sob sob … "
Huo Shaoheng looked at Huo Guanchen calmly and said, "When did you hire such a powerful nanny? She even dared to accuse our soldiers falsely. "
Huo Guanchen didn't know what was going on.
The people from the legal department quickly explained to him.
The military legal department was part of the political department.
Huo Guanchen, the director of the political department, was the highest-ranking official in the legal department.
After listening to the explanation, Huo Guanchen frowned and said to Guo Huining, "Just take good care of Grandfather Huo. You don't have to bring me food. I have orderlies here to cook. "
"… I saw that the chef made a good soup, Gastrodia elata stewed with pigeon. I heard that you sometimes have headaches, and this soup is very suitable." Guo Huining said considerately and handed the insulated lunch box to Huo Guanchen's personal secretary.
Huo Guanchen didn't have to accept it, but his personal secretary couldn't.
Huo Shaoheng coughed softly. "Alright, the food is here. Take her away for investigation."
"Why is there still an investigation?" Guo Huining involuntarily moved a few steps towards Huo Guanchen. "It's all a misunderstanding. We've already made it clear."
"You're the private nanny hired by General Huo. You must pass the most stringent background check." Huo Shaoheng waved his hand in an indisputable manner and said to the people from the legal department, "Take her to record her statement and check her resume. Check her social relations in the past five years, direct relatives within three generations, and collateral relatives within two generations."
"For the safety of the Chief and his father, you must not bend the law for personal gain. You must conduct a strict and stringent investigation!"
