"You're a good drinker …" Huo Guanchen smiled and glanced at the dishes on the table. They were all his favorites, "… Thank you, Miss Guo."
Guo Huining's alcohol tolerance was actually quite good, but after only one glass of red wine this time, she felt a little dizzy. It was the same feeling as when she drank a liter of white wine.
Could it really be that it wasn't the wine that intoxicated her, but she was intoxicated?
Guo Huining thought about it as she watched Huo Guanchen pour her another glass of red wine. He said in a deep voice, "This glass is to thank you for taking care of my father, Miss Guo."
Guo Huining would be impolite to refuse, so she took a sip.
She didn't want to finish it in one gulp, but Huo Guanchen sat beside her and looked at her. Under the light, his eyes seemed to be misty, making him seem even more mysterious.
It was this high and mighty attitude that struck a chord in her heart.
All her defenses and defenses crumbled, and she just wanted to crawl at his feet, submit to him, and be conquered by him …
Guo Huining couldn't stop and finished the glass of red wine in one gulp.
Huo Guanchen raised a brow, "Miss Guo's alcohol tolerance is quite good. Why don't we have something stronger?"
Guo Huining couldn't refuse and quickly nodded.
This was Huo Guanchen's private residence, but the bottle of red wine wasn't his. Guo Huining had brought it in herself.
Huo Guanchen smiled and went to his wine cellar to get a bottle of white wine and a bottle of red wine to put on the dining table.
Guo Huining leaned against the dining table with her head propped on her hand and looked at Huo Guanchen with a smile. She didn't hide her admiration and adoration for him anymore.
"Come, have a taste of my collection." Huo Guanchen opened the white wine and red wine with a bottle opener.
Guo Huining's gaze shifted to the two bottles and she glanced at them casually. Suddenly, her eyes widened.
"… Macallan?
1928? "She pointed at the ordinary-looking bottle in shock," This is top-notch whiskey! "
Huo Guanchen smiled without saying anything. He picked up the whiskey bottle and poured half a glass for Guo Huining.
Then he picked up the other bottle of red wine and poured it into the same glass for her.
Guo Huining looked at the bottle of red wine and was even more shocked, "Massandra?
Sherry？ And it's from 1817?! "
This type of sherry had long been priceless.
Not only did she see it, but she also had the honor of tasting it …
Guo Huining was also an expert at drinking and naturally knew that mixing white wine and red wine would make one drunk.
Although Huo Guanchen didn't have to do this, she would have been drunk a long time ago.
She didn't have to do this.
Guo Huining looked at Huo Guanchen with even more dreamy eyes. She grew bolder.
She got up, walked to the door, and turned off the lights in the dining room. Then she took out a lighter and lit the candlestick that she had prepared earlier.
The snow-white candles flickered, and the dining room was suddenly filled with an ambiguous atmosphere.
Guo Huining returned to her seat and picked up her wine glass. She looked at Huo Guanchen lovingly as she sipped her wine.
. "Hu. Huo. Guer.," Guo Guanchen, ". at.
Huo Guanchen was also holding a crystal goblet, but he didn't drink it. He leaned back in his chair and smiled at her.
She took another sip of wine and gradually leaned over to get closer to Huo Guanchen.
Huo Guanchen didn't move. He didn't step back or avoid her, but he didn't move forward either.
Guo Huining's face was burning. Her heart was beating like a drum, but she couldn't stop.
She wanted to get closer, closer, and closer, but she stopped five centimeters away from Huo Guanchen's handsome face.
She stared at him, mesmerized. She was so close to him that she could feel his shallow breath on her face …
"… Miss Guo, are you drunk?" Huo Guanchen asked calmly.
"No." Guo Huining shook her head. "General Huo, you don't have to be so polite. You can call me Huining."
Huo Guanchen smiled. His back was to the candlelight. His face was hidden in the dim candlelight, but Guo Huining felt that he was waiting for her to come over.
But when she tried to get closer, Huo Guanchen put down his glass and brushed past her.
The courage that Guo Huining had just mustered up vanished into thin air.
She rubbed her temples and said worriedly, "I think I'm a little drunk."
Huo Guanchen tilted his head to look at her and suddenly asked, "Miss Guo, is Dr. Tony someone you know?"
Guo Huining was in a daze at the moment, so she naturally answered whatever Huo Guanchen asked.
She immediately shook her head, "No, he's not someone I know."
"Then how do you know him?"
"I don't know him, my friend knows him. She said Dr. Tony is very good. "
"Your friend? Is it Dou Aiyan? "
"Yes, General Huo, you know her too right? I heard her say that her sister almost became your daughter-in-law … "Guo Huining said in a daze. She felt her head getting heavier.
Huo Guanchen didn't comment. He tapped his fingers on the dining table. The quiet dining room emitted a mechanical clicking sound.
Guo Huining felt that something was wrong, but she was distracted by the clicking sounds. It was as if she couldn't think on her own.
She looked at Huo Guanchen in a daze. She wanted to confess her feelings, but Huo Guanchen always cut her off.
"Prime Minister Dou's daughter? When did she meet Dr. Tony? "Huo Guanchen asked with a smile.
"I heard her say that she met him when she was overseas."
"You believe that?"
"I don't." Guo Huining wanted to confide, "She hid a lot of things from me. She thought I didn't know, but I'm not stupid. How could I not know?"
"For example?" Huo Guanchen narrowed his eyes.
"For example, she wasn't doing well abroad, but suddenly her luck changed. Not only did she have a lot of money to spend, but she was also able to meet a lot of people she normally couldn't reach."
Guo Huining continued, "For example, Dr. Tony. He's such an amazing doctor, and his family background isn't ordinary. Even if her father was the Prime Minister, she might not be able to hire someone to perform the surgery. Moreover, she's a former Prime Minister, and the daughter of a former Prime Minister who's in prison. Who would trust her? "
"She must have someone helping her."
Huo Guanchen finally got to the point.
From the moment Guo Huining recommended Dr. Tony for grandfather Huo's surgery, they had been investigating Guo Huining's relationship and background with Dr. Tony.
However, although Dr. Tony's background was clear, the distance between Guo Huining and Dr. Tony was worlds apart. There were some important links that could not be found.
Later, when they investigated Dou Aiyan, they discovered that Dou Aiyan had made up some of the missing links.
But it still wasn't right.
They decided to expand their investigation, but the other party was also very cunning. They seemed to have sensed that something was wrong and retreated.
In order not to alert the enemy, the easiest and easiest way was to start with Guo Huining.
If this woman wasn't stupid, she would have sensed something was wrong with Dou Aiyan.
How could a talented student from B University's Faculty of Law be a fool?
Since those people were using Guo Huining as bait, Huo Guanchen didn't mind being a big fish that could pull the fishermen down.
"Then who do you think is helping her?"
