When President Chen saw that General Xiao had followed them, she knew that she couldn't stop them. She could only say to Chen Lie, "Then let's go find Professor Lu. You have to help your cousin!"
Chen Lie felt that Xiao Ye had suffered such a serious injury. As a mother, President Chen felt sorry for her daughter, so it wasn't a big deal to say a few sour words.
Gu Nianzhi was a reasonable person, so she wouldn't take it to heart.
Professor Lu was angry, probably because someone at his level had never encountered such a troublesome interpersonal relationship.
Even Chen Lie himself knew that whether it was his superiors, subordinates, relatives, or friends, everyone was very polite to him. They would offend anyone but him.
Of course, his temper had risen. Other than Huo Shaoheng, he didn't give face to anyone.
Now, of course, there was Lu Jin.
Not to mention getting angry at him, even if this person beat him up three times a day, he wouldn't have any complaints. As long as he could stay by Lu Jin's side and learn some skills and knowledge.
He drove the car with President Chen to the address Song Jinning had given him.
When they were downstairs, he called Gu Nianzhi first to let her prepare.
Gu Nianzhi received the call and raised an eyebrow. She went to Lu Jin's room and knocked on the door. "Dad, President Chen is here. She came with Chen Lie."
Lu Jin was making a surgery plan on the computer. He said without turning his head, "If she's here, then she's here. Do you want an eight-person sedan chair to go down to welcome her? Let them wait. I haven't finished the surgery plan yet. I don't want to give up halfway. "
Gu Nianzhi nodded with a smile. She knew that Lu Jin was tough on the outside but soft-hearted on the inside.
He had done everything that needed to be done, but his words were so harsh that the person he had helped couldn't even be grateful.
Otherwise, how could he have been diagnosed with a severe case of "interpersonal disorder"?
He was the kind of person who did the most things in life because he didn't know how to speak, but it was still a thankless task.
But now that she was here, she wouldn't let Lu Jin fall into that kind of situation again.
Gu Nianzhi gently closed Lu Jin's door and waited in the living room for a few minutes before she heard the doorbell ring.
Because of Chen Lie, it was very easy for President Chen to enter.
Otherwise, she would have been stopped at the entrance of the neighborhood.
Gu Nianzhi opened the door and nodded at Chen Lie with a smile. "Brother Chen is here. Please come in."
President Chen saw that Gu Nianzhi ignored her, as if she didn't know her, and felt very uncomfortable. However, she was here to ask for help, so she could only lower her head and say embarrassedly, "Miss Gu, I'm sorry about last night. It was me …"
Gu Nianzhi interrupted her and said with a smile, "President Chen, right? Please come in. "
She brought President Chen and Chen Lie into the living room. Gu Nianzhi brought them a cup of tea and a glass of water and placed it in front of them.
Chen Lie was used to drinking water. As for President Chen, a cup of green tea was never wrong for someone of his age.
President Chen sat next to Chen Lie. She shifted uneasily and gave Chen Lie a light kick.
Chen Lie understood. He smiled and put in a good word for her. "Nianzhi, it was Director Chen's fault last night. She's my aunt. She usually does things by the book and doesn't know how to speak well. It was our fault that she offended Uncle Lu. My aunt came specially to apologize."
Gu Nianzhi understood when she saw Chen Lie follow them.
It was probably at this moment that the Xiao family truly believed that Lu Jin was better than Chen Lie.
This was because Chen Lie, Lu Jin's big fan, must have spared no effort to promote Lu Jin's "miracle" everywhere.
Ever since he had saved the vegetative patient who had been lying in bed for six years, Chen Lie had been full of praise for Lu Jin. He couldn't wait to be his assistant.
Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng didn't stop him.
Because Lu Jin had the ability, there was no need for them to hide it.
Although President Chen wasn't worried, she immediately softened when she thought of her daughter, who had been depressed ever since she woke up. She lowered her stance and smiled obsequiously at Gu Nianzhi. "Miss Gu, my attitude yesterday was indeed bad. It was all my fault that I angered Miss Gu. I came here today to apologize to you and Professor Lu. I hope you can forgive me for the sake of our Xiao Ye being almost paralyzed. "
The corners of Gu Nianzhi's mouth twitched. She thought to herself that President Chen's words were still full of sarcasm at a time like this.
The apology was also a pretense of using Xiao Ye's injuries.
If Lu Jin hadn't really been able to treat her injuries, President Chen's apology would never have come out.
However, this was also human nature.
This was how society was. Gu Nianzhi could understand, but she didn't want to follow the crowd.
She nodded slightly and said, "President Chen, you don't have to apologize to me. Miss Xiao Ye did use her life to protect me. There's nothing wrong with that. I remember what Miss Xiao Ye did for me. I'll never forget it. "
This struck a chord in President Chen's heart. She quickly nodded and said to Gu Nianzhi as if she had found a confidant, "Miss Gu's words are fair!"
"But our Xiao Ye is a stubborn person. Her father, who is just as stubborn as her, has already taken the medal and certificate to the organization to admit his mistake!"
"She said that she didn't protect Miss Gu well and failed the mission. It was Miss Gu who protected her … but she was really shot ten times!"
As President Chen spoke, she started crying.
She felt wronged, sad, and a little unwilling to cry.
Gu Nianzhi was extremely shocked. "… She took the medal and certificate to the organization to admit her mistake?! What's going on?! "
She looked at Chen Lie, hoping that he could give her a reasonable explanation.
President Chen was crying now. She probably wasn't in the mood to talk to her.
Chen Lie smiled bitterly. "Just now, Xiao Ye said that she didn't protect you well. Actually, the mission failed. She doesn't deserve those honors …"
Gu Nianzhi stood up from the sofa and walked around the living room with her arms crossed. She said agitatedly, "How could Sister Xiao Ye do this?"
"Even if she protected me because of the military's mission, as the target of protection, how could I take Sister Xiao Ye's protection for granted?!"
"At the juncture of life and death, Sister Xiao Ye used her own life to protect me. That's enough to match any honor the military gives her!"
"No, I have to go to the military too. Who is Sister Xiao Ye going to apologize to? I have to speak up. I can't let Xiao Ye get hurt for nothing! "
Gu Nianzhi became anxious. She was worried that Xiao Ye would cause a misunderstanding between the military and the organization.
She knew that in Xiao Ye's industry, the biggest taboo was to hide things from the organization.
Especially when they were on field missions, it was a secret industry to begin with. It would be fatal to hide things from the higher-ups of the organization.
Moreover, Gu Nianzhi didn't think that Xiao Ye was hiding anything.
Her abduction was also an unexpected disaster for Xiao Ye.
If it weren't for the fact that the technology in the other world was too powerful, with the level of protection Huo Shaoheng had given her and Xiao Ye's skills, things wouldn't have developed like this.
And Xiao Ye still didn't know what kind of enemy she had faced that day. This wasn't fair to her.
Gu Nianzhi stared at Chen Lie. "Brother Chen, take me to the military. I have something to say too."
President Chen looked at Gu Nianzhi in disbelief. She couldn't believe her ears. "You, you, you … You don't blame our Xiao Ye anymore?"
Gu Nianzhi sighed. "Don't say anything now. Take me to Sister Xiao Ye first. I'll speak up for her. I have the most say in this matter. "
President Chen finally understood what she had done wrong.
She walked over and held Gu Nianzhi's hand. She had mixed feelings. She was already crying, but now her tears kept flowing.
"Miss Gu, I'm already decades old, but I'm not as reasonable as you. I was indeed in the wrong in this matter. I was the one who dragged Xiao Ye down. I was the one who had a bad mind. It was my fault. I've never admired anyone in my life. Even if your father could save Xiao Ye, I would be grateful to him, but I wouldn't admire him. "
"Only you can speak up for Xiao Ye. I know nothing I can say now can make up for my mistake. However, there's something I haven't said. If you're interested, we can talk about it in detail when you're free. "
Gu Nianzhi nodded hurriedly. Her heart softened and she shook President Chen's hand. "You're doing this for your daughter. I understand. Alright, let's go stop Sister Xiao Ye first, and then we'll talk about the surgery. "
"Okay." President Chen wiped her tears and followed Gu Nianzhi and Chen Lie out the door.
When Chen Lie drove, Gu Nianzhi and President Chen sat in the back seat.
President Chen took out her phone and flipped through it for a long time. Finally, she found a few messages she had received a year ago and showed them to Gu Nianzhi.
She said, "At that time, someone reminded us that if we wanted Xiao Ye to recover, we could look for Major General Huo. He said that he had special resources that could help Xiao Ye recover."
Gu Nianzhi looked at the message from the "kind-hearted person".
"Kind-Hearted person: President Chen, your daughter's injuries can be healed as long as Major General Huo is willing to help you. He has special resources that can help your daughter recover. "
President Chen continued, "I showed this message to Major General Huo. At that time, you were missing …"
"But later, I received a few more messages. I didn't show the rest of the messages to anyone because the person who sent the messages didn't let me show them to anyone else."
