Lu Yuan's identity and experience were top secret even in the highest organization of the Huaxia Empire's military.
If Huo Guanchen wasn't Lu Yuan's younger brother, he wouldn't have known about this. Of course, his personal secretary wouldn't have known either.
Lu Yuan was still in the two-year period of being kept secret, so all they knew was that he was "a businessman".
Although Huo Guanchen was mentally prepared, he still couldn't accept the news.
"Is his name really Lu Yuan? Are you sure? "Huo Guanchen almost grabbed his personal secretary's neck and asked.
The personal secretary nodded. "His name is indeed Lu Yuan … Chief, is this person not good?"
Why was his expression so scary?
Huo Guanchen used all his self-control to calm himself down, but it was only on the surface.
He slowly raised his hand and waved. "… Got it. You can leave."
After the personal secretary left, he sat alone in the office for a long time. When it was time to get off work, he made a decision.
After coming out of the office, he didn't go home directly. Instead, he got someone to drive to Song Jinning's apartment complex.
He knew that Song Jinning had bought a house in this complex, but she had never been here before.
The property management of the complex didn't let them in. Huo Guanchen didn't say anything and only glanced at his personal secretary.
The personal secretary understood and took out his ID. He said, "Our chief is here to see Ms. Song Jinning, who lives here. She's our chief's ex-wife."
When the property management heard this, they didn't dare to stop them anymore. They quickly opened the fence and let Huo Guanchen's car in. They called Song Jinning's apartment and said, "Ms. Song? Your ex-husband, Chief Huo, is here to see you. "
Song Jinning went to the Institute of High Energy Physics today to submit a marriage application.
She and Lu Yuan had just confirmed their relationship yesterday, so it was still a little awkward today. She didn't want to go home for a while.
However, Lu Yuan still went to the Institute of High Energy Physics to pick her up like before.
She had thought that she would be embarrassed to see Lu Yuan, but when she saw him standing high in front of the car, next to the gate of the Institute of High Energy Physics, behind him was a wide road, and there were trees with fallen leaves, she actually calmed down.
Not long after the two of them returned home, Song Jinning received a call from the property management.
She was about to ask the property management not to let Huo Guanchen in, but the property management continued, "… he's already in."
Song Jinning was a little angry and said, "Don't let him in next time."
Property management: "…"
The other party was the Bureau Chief and the ex-husband. The court did not issue a restraining order. How could a small property management company like him dare to?!
Song Jinning was still fuming when the doorbell rang.
She immediately knew that it was Huo Guanchen.
Alright, let's settle the score together.
She walked over with a solemn expression and looked through the peephole. It was indeed Huo Guanchen.
Lu Yuan and Lu Jin poked their heads out and asked, "Who is it? Are Nianzhi and Shaoheng here? "
Song Jinning shook her head and said casually, "It was General Huo."
Lu Yuan pursed his lips and immediately walked to Song Jinning's side and asked, "Why is he here? Do you want me to send him away for you? "
"There's no need for that. I was just about to settle the score with him." Song Jinning opened the door in a fit of pique.
Huo Guanchen frowned and looked up, just in time to see Song Jinning and Lu Yuan standing in front of him like a perfect couple. His pupils suddenly contracted.
Although he didn't want to admit it, he had to admit that his heart was deeply hurt by this scene.
It was as if years of nightmares had finally come true. He almost wanted to pinch himself to see if he was dreaming or if it was a living reality.
Song Jinning said bluntly, "General Huo is here at the right time. I have something to settle with you."
If a woman spoke in such a tone, it meant that she was looking for trouble.
Huo Guanchen knew Song Jinning very well, so his mood couldn't help but improve.
She could still lose her temper at him, so it wasn't like she didn't have any feelings for him at all, right?
He nodded and walked in.
The guards and personal secretary didn't follow him in. Instead, they stood guard at the door.
The chief was obviously here to deal with family matters, so they didn't want to go in.
After Huo Guanchen came in, he quickly sized up the layout of the room. Just as he was about to speak, Lu Jin poked his head out of his room and asked, "Who is it? Are you here for dinner? "
It was indeed time to get off work to cook dinner. Lu Yuan had just been in the kitchen discussing what to eat today with Lu Jin.
Although Lu Jin didn't know how to cook, he was still very knowledgeable about what to eat.
Huo Guanchen didn't mind Lu Jin's tone, but he was a little surprised to see that he was familiar with the place. He turned to look at Song Jinning and said, "You're treating President Lu and Professor Lu to dinner today?"
Song Jinning smiled and said frankly, "They're the ones treating me to dinner, not the other way around."
"But this is your house. If they're treating you to dinner, shouldn't you go to their house, or go out to a restaurant or a hotel? "Huo Guanchen felt even worse.
He had to come to Song Jinning's house to treat her to dinner. How thick-skinned was Lu Yuan!
"But they live here." Song Jinning sat down as if nothing had happened. "Of course I have to treat them to dinner here."
"What did you say?!" Huo Guanchen felt like his high blood pressure was about to explode. He pointed at Lu Yuan and glared at Song Jinning. "Why are they staying at your house?! Don't they have their own place to live?! "
Huo Guanchen knew that Lu Yuan and Lu Jin lived in this neighborhood, and Gu Nianzhi had provided them with two houses. Why didn't they live in Gu Nianzhi's house but Song Jinning's?!
No wonder he could coax someone like Song Jinning into thinking about remarrying. It was really the case of "a strong woman is afraid of a pestering man" …
Song Jinning raised an eyebrow. "Their house is being renovated, so they don't have a place to live. I have a big place and a lot of rooms here, so I'll let them stay for a few days. What's wrong?"
She crossed her arms and said unhappily, "Besides, what does this have to do with you, Chief Huo? I make the decisions about my room. Don't be too shameless. "
Huo Guanchen finally understood Lu Yuan's trickery. He was angry and regretful. He snapped, "What nonsense! You're a single, divorced woman. If others find out that you're letting two men live in your house, do you still want your reputation?! "
Without waiting for Song Jinning to retort, he continued, "Even if you don't think about your own reputation, you have to think about Shaoheng's! How old is he? If you still want to remarry, are you going to give him a younger brother or sister who's more than 30 years younger?! "
Song Jinning hadn't thought about having children yet. When Huo Guanchen said this, her face darkened. She said coldly, "Even Shaoheng isn't against it. Who do you think you are? You're also against me? How many times have I said it, Chief Huo? We're already divorced. If you continue to pester me like this, I'm going to apply to the court for a restraining order. "
Lu Yuan sat next to Song Jinning and put his arm around her shoulder. He said to Huo Guanchen, "Chief Huo, if I remember correctly, you divorced Jinning when she was seriously ill and established a relationship with Bai Jinyi. You even got engaged to her two years ago. If it weren't for Bai Jinyi's murder case, you would have married her according to normal procedures, wouldn't you? "
"If you can remarry, why can't Jinning?" Lu Yuan asked in return.
Huo Guanchen suppressed his anger and took a deep breath. How could it be the same? I can remarry, but she can't.
