Huo Guanchen's personal secretary nodded seriously, "Yes, the surveillance found out. They called to confirm and asked Miss Guo to pick the time and place."
"Then what time did she pick?" Huo Guanchen asked calmly.
"The other party said that their big boss would be returning immediately, so Miss Guo picked next Monday."
Mondays were usually Huo Guanchen's busiest time. Besides, he had already promised to visit grandfather Huo this weekend, so he definitely wouldn't be going back on Monday.
Huo Guanchen smiled sarcastically, "Okay, Monday it is. Send more people to keep an eye on them, and remember not to alert them."
…
It snowed for an entire day and night in the imperial capital.
Huo Guanchen had planned to visit grandfather Huo at the West Mountain Villa the next day, but because of the heavy snow, his motorcade couldn't go. He could only call to ask.
Guo Huining wasn't disappointed, but when Huo Guanchen said "sorry", she immediately felt better. She smiled and said it was fine, then set up a time to meet again.
Although Huo Guanchen said it was the time to visit grandfather Huo, in Guo Huining's heart, it had already become a date with her.
At noon, Zhang Baochen actually brought Zhang Wenna and Zhang Wenjie to the West Mountain Villa.
Looking at the snow stains on their legs that almost reached their knees, Guo Huining was both emotional and gratified. She smiled and said, "You're finally here. Grandfather Huo has been talking about you all morning, and I thought you wouldn't come."
Zhang Baochen smiled and changed his shoes at the entrance, "How could I not come? I said I would come, so I will definitely come. "
When he saw grandfather Huo, he was even more touched and happy than Guo Huining. He said loudly, "They said the snow was too heavy to come, but how could you come?! It all depends on whether you have the heart or not! "
Zhang Baochen knew grandfather Huo very well, and smiled when he heard this. "Dad, who are you talking about?"
"Who else? It's your second brother! "grandfather Huo laughed." He actually called me this morning and said he couldn't come because the snow was too heavy! "
Guo Huining quickly explained on Huo Guanchen's behalf, "Sir, it's not that General Huo doesn't want to come, but it's inconvenient for him to travel. He can't come like Mr. Zhang, the entire motorcade …"
As she spoke, she looked at Zhang Baochen and gestured, "… What do you think, Mr Zhang?"
Zhang Baochen laughed awkwardly and said sourly, "That makes sense. Second Brother's status is different. He's a General, so of course he'll be surrounded by people when he goes out. Unlike us, who parked our cars at the temporary parking lot at the foot of the mountain and climbed up on our own two legs."
On the side, Zhang Wenjie said in a daze, "Actually, the mountain road has already been swept. It's really not easy to have snow sweeping workers on such a remote mountain so early in the morning."
Guo Huining smiled and nodded. "Yeah, this isn't an ordinary place. If we want to clear the snow, we have to do it here first. It's just that it's only the sidewalk, cars can't get on it. "
Grandfather Huo smiled and pointed at Guo Huining. "You have a glib tongue. You're afraid that I'll say something bad about Guanchen!"
"Grandfather Huo, what are you talking about?!" Guo Huining blushed and waved her hand shyly. She turned around and went out to instruct the chef to cook.
Because the snow on the mountain had not been completely swept, it was too difficult for Zhang Baochen and the others to go up and down the mountain. Therefore, the three of them stayed at the West Mountain Villa for two days after arriving and only went down the mountain with Guo Huining on Monday.
At this time, the road on the mountain had already been swept. Guo Huining drove Zhang Baochen, Zhang Wenna and Zhang Wenjie down the mountain to the temporary parking lot.
When they arrived, Guo Huining opened the car door and let them out. She smiled and said, "I'm going into the city to buy something. Help yourselves."
Zhang Wenna asked curiously, "You need to go into the city to buy something? Can't you buy it online now? "
Shopping was so tiring. As an otaku, she had long since disliked crowded shopping malls.
Guo Huining was stunned, but quickly said, "There are too many fake goods online. It's better to go to a real store to compare the goods."
"Okay." Zhang Wenna could only nod. "Sister Huining, you're a rich person. You can't compare to us."
Guo Huining smiled and drove into the city.
After a weekend, the snow in the Imperial Capital had been swept clean. However, there were still many piles of snow on the roadside, waiting for the snowplows to be taken away.
On Monday morning, the working hours had already passed. The Imperial Capital was not crowded.
However, because the road was still slippery, it took her half an hour to reach the place where they had agreed to meet.
Surprisingly, this person did not arrange to meet her at some high-end private place. Instead, they arranged to meet at the food stalls on the rooftop of an ordinary shopping mall.
There were too many people here. Guo Huining could not figure out why the other party would do this.
However, the other party was a big boss with a private jet. If he didn't mind, why would she mind?
Guo Huining walked in with a Hermes Platinum bag. The LV cashmere coat she was wearing did not fit in with the atmosphere here.
She frowned and looked around. Suddenly, she saw a person who looked familiar.
He was wearing a short gray cashmere coat. The coat was open, revealing a collared cashmere sweater. He wore a silver-gray striped tie. He looked extremely elegant and handsome.
Just like her, he also did not fit in with the environment here.
Guo Huining was very surprised.
She did not expect the big boss behind the greasy middle-aged man, Deputy Director Jia, to be so young and so good looking …
Moreover, he could lower himself to sit at a place where the general public ate.
He was like a bouquet of lilies that bloomed in the dust, untainted by even a speck of dust.
However, seeing his calm demeanor and Duan Ning's behavior, Guo Huining immediately recognized that this was the big boss.
This feeling was not something that Deputy Director Jia, who deliberately pretended to be mysterious, could give her.
She walked over with a smile and sat down in front of the man. She tapped her fingers on the plastic dining table twice. "Sir, I don't think this is the first time we've met."
The man looked up at her. His voice was a typical baritone, humble and neutral. "Is that so? But I don't remember meeting this lady except for the photos. "
"Don't play dumb." Guo Huining laughed. "The Fate's Love Restaurant near the Institute of High Energy Physics. At the time, you were eating with a particularly beautiful woman on the second floor by the window. Am I right?"
At the time, the owner of the Fate's Love Restaurant had asked her to meet him. She was there and saw Song Jinning and the ring that Huo Guanchen tried to give her from the surveillance camera …
She had a very good memory, and because that day was special, she clearly remembered everything about that place, including the layout of the tables and chairs, and the people who were there.
On the second floor of that restaurant, a man and a woman were sitting by the window not far away, following the path led by the green vines.
The man was elegant and handsome, and the woman opposite him was mature and beautiful. They were a strange match.
A mother and son sat in front of them on the left. The child was only four or five years old, but he was sitting in his high chair obediently. He did not yell like the other children.
The child's mother was elegant and gentle. She was wiping the child's hands with a wet tissue.
It was just a few people, but they were deeply embedded in her memory, just like everything that had happened that day.
This man was the first person to enter her sight that day, so she naturally remembered him.
"… I didn't expect you to have already gone that day." Guo Huining said thoughtfully.
The man squinted his eyes and smiled. He said charmingly, "But Miss Guo brushed past me and didn't even look at me."
