Gu Nianzhi didn't understand why Lu Jin suddenly wanted to elect the prime minister after a visit to Xiao Ye's house.
She took a deep breath and tried to reason with Lu Jin patiently.
"Dad, think about it carefully. If you really want to run, you can't just have IQ and EQ. You have to think about it. What right do the voters have to vote for you? What do you have to impress the voters? "
"National development plans, social welfare benefits, economic principles …"
Before Gu Nianzhi could finish, Lu Jin suddenly said, "I checked the data a few days ago. There are currently 114 million people with diabetes in Huaxia. Including their relatives and friends, it can be multiplied by at least four. That's 450 million."
Gu Nianzhi: "…"
"What does diabetes patients and their relatives and friends have to do with your campaign?" Gu Nianzhi felt that she wasn't stupid, but she still couldn't keep up with Lu Jin's pace.
Lu Jin looked up at her and said confidently, "If I said that whoever voted for me would be cured of diabetes and wouldn't have to continue injecting insulin for the rest of their lives, would they vote for me?"
Gu Nianzhi's knees instantly went weak and she wanted to kneel down.
"… Dad, I was wrong. I shouldn't have doubted your decision!"
Lu Yuan understood now. He put down the newspaper with a smile and stood up. "Professor Lu, what happened to you just now? Can't you just be a great scientist who invented things? Who would dare to make you angry? "
Lu Jin didn't realize it and said angrily, "Who else?! If you look down on me for not being the prime minister, you look down on my girl! Isn't it just a lousy prime minister?! Who wouldn't be elected?! "
Huo Shaoheng immediately reacted. "… Did General Huo give you a hard time just now?"
Other than Huo Guanchen, he couldn't think of anyone who looked down on Gu Nianzhi because her father "wasn't the prime minister".
Lu Yuan sighed softly and walked over to pat Lu Jin on the shoulder. "I get it. You don't want others to look down on Nianzhi because of her family background, right?"
Gu Nianzhi had always been eloquent, but at this moment, she was speechless.
His heart felt warm. It should be very warm and touching, but there was a sour feeling. He wanted to cry, but it was not a cry of sadness, but a cry of contentment.
Lu Jin nodded sullenly and said bluntly, "I don't think it's that difficult to run for office. The main thing is that this will be the fastest way to raise my status and shut up the person who likes the prime minister's daughter as his daughter-in-law."
Lu Yuan gave Huo Shaoheng a look.
Huo Shaoheng walked over calmly and said sincerely to Lu Jin, "Dad, you have a much higher status than the prime minister. The Prime Minister had to run for office, and there were term limits. Your knowledge and abilities are priceless. I am proud to have a father-in-law like you. I don't need the Prime Minister's daughter, nor do I like the Prime Minister's daughter. "
He turned around to look at Gu Nianzhi, who was still in the middle of the room. He smiled and said, "I love Nianzhi, and it has nothing to do with her family background. I love her as a person, not her family and friends and social connections. "
This was the first time Huo Shaoheng had confessed his feelings for Gu Nianzhi in front of Lu Jin.
Lu Jin nodded and said matter-of-factly, "Of course my girl is the best. I know it myself. However, can you really persevere forever? "
"Five years, ten years, twenty years, thirty years. Won't you regret it in the future? Won't you think it's more helpful to find a wife with a good family background? "
Although Lu Jin didn't care about this, he wasn't a person who was isolated from the world. He saw everything that happened to other people.
Just because he didn't care didn't mean that others didn't care. Moreover, when it came to his own daughter, he couldn't help but care.
Gu Nianzhi's entire heart was about to melt.
She quietly walked over and held Lu Jin's hand. She looked up at him and said admiringly, "Dad, you don't have to be like this. If you're the kind of person who likes to be in the limelight, I don't object to you running for office. Just treat it as a game. "
"But your nature isn't like this … I know you only like to study and do experiments on your own …"
Lu Jin nodded honestly and said, "I don't like that kind of election. One by one, they stand in front of the public like idiots. They either prove that they're stupider than others or worse than others. But if this can shut that Huo guy up, I don't mind choosing a prime minister to slap his face. "
The two "Huos" in the room shut up at the same time.
Gu Nianzhi pursed her lips into a smile and said, "Dad, you really don't have to be like this. Don't forget, Major General Huo and I are already married. To be honest, even if you weren't by my side, no one would be able to bully me, because I could protect myself. "
She now had the ability and qualifications to establish herself. Was the Chief Legal Counsel of the House of Lords just a decoration?
Lu Yuan also joked, "Professor Lu, you're really thinking too much. Would Nianzhi, who grew up with Shaoheng, be scared by a few ignorant elders using 'family background' and 'filial piety'? "
"That's not looking down on our Nianzhi, it's looking down on Shaoheng. Your son-in-law will teach them a lesson. "
Huo Shaoheng said with a serious expression, "That's what President Lu said. Those who look down on Nianzhi are looking down on my taste. Those who look down on Nianzhi and me have all paid a heavy price. No one is an exception. "
The assurance, coupled with Gu Nianzhi's constant coquettish teasing, finally dispelled Lu Jin's idea of choosing the prime minister.
They weren't worried that he wouldn't be chosen, but worried about what they would do if he was chosen!
That was the most deadly thing!
It was already late at night by the time this matter was settled. Everyone was in a good mood, so they chatted and laughed as they went back to their room to sleep.
However, early the next morning, Gu Nianzhi, Huo Shaoheng, and Lu Yuan realized that they had been happy too early last night.
When General Xiao knocked on the door with a generous gift, Gu Nianzhi had yet to get up.
Lu Yuan and Huo Shaoheng had just set breakfast on the dining table when Lu Jin went to Gu Nianzhi's room to wake her up.
When he passed by the living room, he heard the doorbell ring. He turned on the intercom in the room to take a look.
Seeing that it was General Xiao and Xiao Ye in a wheelchair, Lu Jin turned off the intercom expressionlessly and disabled the doorbell system at home.
That way, he wouldn't hear anyone knocking on the door.
Lu Jin was elated. He felt that he was both quick-witted and cunning. He couldn't help but praise himself.
Gu Nianzhi was woken up by Lu Jin. She sat up from the bed and her hair was disheveled.
"Dad! Can't I just sleep for a while longer? "
"Don't sleep. In order to comfort your father, Boss Lu specially made doughnuts for breakfast this morning, which he rarely makes. Doughnuts made by Boss Lu! It's not as sweet as the ones sold outside at all. It's crispy and smooth, and melts in your mouth. "
Lu Jin swallowed and continued, "It's best to eat it while it's hot!"
With the delicious food in front of her, Gu Nianzhi's anger dissipated a little.
She slowly pushed the blanket away and got out of bed. "… Dad, you better not be exaggerating. Otherwise, I'll let you eat it alone!"
"I'll eat it. You make it sound like I've never eaten it before!" Lu Jin smiled and patted her head. "I'll go out first."
When he came out of Gu Nianzhi's bedroom, he happened to see Lu Yuan coming out of the dining room and walking towards the door.
"Boss Lu, where are you going?" Lu Jin thought that Lu Yuan was going out early in the morning. "Are you going to deliver breakfast to Director Song again? You're not allowed to deliver doughnuts. I'm telling you! "
Lu Yuan looked at his phone and said in confusion, "Jinning just sent me a message saying that two guests had come to visit. She gave them the address, but they said that there was no one in the house. She asked what was going on. "
Lu Jin blinked and thought to himself that it was not good. He should hurry back to his room and take his medicine..
