The voice on the other end paused for a moment, then said in a slightly distorted voice, "Since you're about to get engaged, you should hold onto Guo Huining tightly."
Dou Aiyan nodded quickly, "I know. If it wasn't for General Huo's lust, we wouldn't have been able to get close to them. "
"Mhm, as long as you know. Keep an eye on Guo Huining, it's best if she gets pregnant sooner. "The person on the other end suggested.
Dou Aiyan raised her eyebrows in surprise, "Why does she have to get pregnant sooner?"
"Do you think she'll have a chance of marrying into the Huo family if she doesn't get pregnant?" The person on the other end was a little impatient, "Dou Aiyan, don't tell me you don't know the rules of this circle?"
Dou Aiyan choked, thinking that this person was really strange. There were some unspoken rules he didn't know, but there were some tacit rules he knew like the back of his hand …
However, she didn't have the guts to argue with him, so she immediately said, "Understood, I'll encourage Guo Huining."
"Good, you've done well." The person's voice softened and he smiled, "I'll give you an extra hundred thousand dollars this month as a reward."
Dou Aiyan's heart warmed up when she received a reward of a hundred thousand dollars a month. She couldn't help but say, "Sir, thank you for taking care of me this year. May I have the honor of treating you to dinner?"
"No, you won't have the honor." The person said and quickly hung up.
Dou Aiyan put down her phone angrily and waited for a moment before opening a small app on her phone to find the coordinates of the person she had just spoken to.
It didn't work, the person's coordinates were still blank and well hidden.
"How useless … and they call themselves the king of tracking apps on the dark web …" Dou Aiyan muttered, planning to ask the person for a refund when she had time.
She couldn't even find the location of a phone number, what a waste of a thousand dollars.
…
After Guo Huining ended the call with Dou Aiyan, she sat restlessly in the West Mountain villa.
She looked at the photo over and over again, liking it more and more.
Not only did she like the perfect diamond ring, but she also liked the man holding it …
How she wished that she was the diamond ring in that man's hand, that he treasured and kept away.
She had been waiting for such a person all her life. From then on, she would wash her hands and cook for him. The wind and rain outside would never touch her again. She would no longer have to struggle in society like a tomboy. She just wanted to hide under his wings and no longer have to wander around.
After watching for a while, she couldn't sit still anymore. She informed the servants in the villa and drove into the city.
Although the Xishan Villa was luxurious and had mountains and rivers, to Guo Huining, she still liked the hustle and bustle of the metropolis.
She felt that she could only stay in a place like the West Mountain Villa on weekends at most. Normally, it would be better to stay in the city, especially with Huo Guanchen at the Huo family's mansion in the military compound.
She drove to the entrance of the military headquarters to take a look before reluctantly driving to the mall. It was the same mall where Huo Guanchen had bought the ring from.
Even though she knew that Huo Guanchen should have left by now, she couldn't help but want to visit the place he had been.
Carrying her Hermes Platinum bag into the store, she was greeted by a young woman in a white professional suit with a smile.
"May I ask what jewelry you are interested in, Miss? We mainly sell diamond rings here, but we also have matching necklaces, bracelets, necklaces, and earrings. "
Guo Huining was speechless.
She just wanted to see it.
However, she still sat down where Huo Guanchen had been sitting. She looked down at the display case and pointed at a pear-shaped diamond ring. "… Please show me this ring?"
The shop assistant in the store quickly smiled and said, "Unfortunately, this ring has just been ordered. We are waiting for the main store to send someone to engrave it."
Although Guo Huining wouldn't buy such an expensive diamond ring herself, she had received a large diamond ring from Hong Ziqi back then.
She knew that if this kind of diamond ring had to be engraved, it would be sent back to their headquarters and then sent back after the engraving was done.
She hadn't expected that the diamond ring Huo Guanchen had bought would actually make their headquarters send someone over personally!
One had to know that the headquarters of this jewelry store was in France!
Guo Huining couldn't help but ask, "Don't you usually send it back to the headquarters for engraving? Why did your headquarters send someone this time? "
"Miss, you are also an expert." The shop assistant complimented, "Because this gentleman wanted it in a hurry, and there wouldn't be enough time to send it back, our headquarters decided to send someone to engrave it."
"That's quite an honor." Guo Huining pursed her lips and chuckled. Her fingers mimicked Huo Guanchen's and gently tapped on the glass of the display case. She asked curiously, "… What's the engraving?"
The shop assistant only smiled and didn't say anything.
Guo Huining knew that this might be a customer's privacy, and most shop assistants wouldn't say anything.
However, she also knew that if there was no possibility of it being leaked, most shop assistants wouldn't mind gossiping about the customer.
Therefore, Guo Huining spread her hands and said, "Actually, you don't have to worry about me telling anyone else what you said. I don't know the buyer, so there's no place for me to pass the message. "
The shop assistant smiled slightly and thought about it for a while before lowering her voice and saying, "Since Miss is so interested, why don't you buy a bracelet? We have this kind of decorative bracelet. It's 18K gold inlaid with diamonds. It's only 30,000 yuan. "
Guo Huining felt her heart ache, but she couldn't bear to part with her child. She gritted her teeth and spent 30,000 yuan to buy an extremely short 18K gold and diamond-inlaid bracelet.
The diamonds were really broken, and it was almost impossible to tell that they were diamonds. Fortunately, the purity was excellent. Wearing it on her wrist, it was like wearing a string of stars in the night sky. It was beautiful and unique, and there was a large logo for her to show off.
After Guo Huining put it on, she immediately fell in love with the bracelet.
The shop assistant completed a transaction, then lowered her voice and said, "… I heard that the gentleman bought it as a gift. It must be for his lover …"
Guo Huining's heart almost skipped a few beats. "… It's possible to give it to someone, but how do you know it's for his lover? Wouldn't it be for a relative, wife, or colleague? "
"Tsk, if it's for a wife, relative, or colleague, would they ask us to engrave endless on the ring?
love？”
“endless
Love? "Guo Huining's eyes flashed." Endless love? Love without end? It's really quite romantic … "
"Of course …" The shop assistant joked with Guo Huining for a while until another customer came in. She only left Guo Huining to serve other customers.
Guo Huining left the jewelry store with a smile. She was in a particularly good mood the whole day.
However, when she returned to the West Mountain Villa, she found that the villa's entrance was heavily guarded. Several military vehicles were parked, and two armed guards stood guard in front of the villa's courtyard.
Guo Huining froze, then wondered if Huo Guanchen had come.
Although he had never put on such a grand show before, she knew that he deserved to enjoy such an entourage.
She quickly walked forward, but when she was about to go in, the guard pointed a gun at her. "Stop."
Guo Huining quickly explained, "I'm the housekeeper here. My name is Guo Huining. If you don't believe me, you can ask Grandfather Huo and General Huo."
The guard put away his gun. "Go in."
Guo Huining breathed a sigh of relief, but as soon as she entered the courtyard, she saw Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng coming out of the villa.
Huo Shaoheng's face was expressionless, but Gu Nianzhi was smiling sweetly and had beautiful eyes. She looked even more beautiful than before.
Guo Huining stopped and stood on the side of the road. She smiled and nodded at Gu Nianzhi. "Miss Gu, you're here."
Gu Nianzhi didn't even look at her. She held Huo Shaoheng's arm and said proudly, "This villa is not bad. Is it your father's? Then won't it be yours from now on? "
Huo Shaoheng said calmly, "Legally, that's the case, but my father isn't old. If he remarries and has children, they might not be mine."
"I see … That's a pity." Gu Nianzhi glanced at Guo Huining meaningfully. "I heard that many people are matchmaking for General Huo. Major General Huo, maybe you'll have a little brother or sister soon."
The corners of Huo Shaoheng's mouth twitched. "You only know how to talk nonsense."
He pulled Gu Nianzhi into the car, and with the military vehicles surrounding them, they left in a grandiose manner.
Guo Huining's face alternated between red and white as she watched Huo Shaoheng's motorcade leave. She clenched her fists.
What she didn't know was that Gu Nianzhi was turning her head to look in her direction from the car. She smiled at Huo Shaoheng and said, "… Will this method work?"
"This is called adding fuel to the fire. We can wait and see."
