When Huo Shaoheng asked this, his gaze fell on the top of the lacquered bed and did not look at Gu Nianzhi.
He waited for a long time, but Gu Nianzhi was still silent.
Tilting his head, he saw that she had already fallen asleep.
Huo Shaoheng looked at her silently for a while, then leaned down and kissed her forehead.
His burning hot lips pressed against her bright and clean forehead, and there was actually a feeling of electricity.
Huo Shaoheng paused before slowly moving away. He touched Gu Nianzhi's face and stood up with a complicated expression.
In a young girl's heart, liking and disliking were two very simple and pure things.
However, if two people really wanted to be together, it wasn't something that could be decided by liking or disliking.
Huo Shaoheng straightened his collar, opened the door to the private room, and walked out.
Outside the door, Xue Jingjiang and the others had returned and were singing karaoke at the top of their lungs.
Huo Shaoheng walked over and sat on the sofa. Hong Ziqi quickly came over to talk to him. "Huo Shao, can I ask if you're close with that Barbados rich lady, Gu Yanran?"
"No," Huo Shaoheng answered briefly. "Why do you ask?"
"It's like this. Didn't she want to transfer her assets to our country? We were going to invest heavily in a few areas. The Great Fool Xue, Little Cui, and I had a project, and Gu Yanran's people came over to take a look. They were quite satisfied and planned to invest. However, we aren't familiar with her. I heard that you once did her a big favor, so I wanted to ask you. "Hong Ziqi said in one breath, and then said," But don't feel burdened. You don't need to show favoritism in this matter. Business is business, private is private. We're just trying to find out if she's really rich. It would be awkward if she's a liar. "
"Oh." Huo Shaoheng nodded. "Not to the extent of being a scammer. The Gu's are considered wealthy in Barbados. Of course, this is a small country, so don't overestimate their strength. "
As they talked about business, Cui Baiwen and Xue Jingjiang joined them. Bai Tianqun remained silent.
When they were done, Bai Tianqun wiped his face and said to Huo Shaoheng, "Huo Shao, do you know about my Second Uncle?"
"I don't know. What happened? " Huo Shaoheng's explanation was flawless. Even if Yin Shixiong, who had worked with him, saw him like this, he would probably think that his mission back then was an illusion and that it had never happened.
Bai Tianqun painfully said, "Our family was thinking that although Second Uncle made a big mistake, he is also dead. Could we bring his body back to our country and bury it with our family? He's drifting alone in a foreign country … "
Huo Shaoheng's eyes narrowed imperceptibly, and a glint flashed across his eyes. He looked down and tapped one hand on his thigh as he shook his head. "There's no point in telling me this. If you want to plead for leniency, your Bai Family's first branch will have a say. "
It was Bai Yueran's branch.
They were against bringing Bai Yusheng's body back.
Bai Tianqun didn't have a choice. He spread his hands and said, "Alright, I also know that Second Uncle was ridiculously wrong, so he deserved this outcome. I've already done what my family told me to do. It'll be easier for me to report when I get back. "
Huo Shaoheng smiled again and turned to ask Xue Jingjiang and the others about the project they were working on.
Time passed very quickly when the men started to talk about business.
When Gu Nianzhi woke up, she realized it was already past four in the afternoon. Her head was still dizzy, and she didn't feel any better after sleeping.
She lay on the bed for a while before she heard the door open. Huo Shaoheng walked in.
"Oh? You're already awake? Let's go eat dinner. It's all set up outside. "Huo Shaoheng stood ramrod straight in front of the bed and looked down at her.
Gu Nianzhi squinted uncomfortably and tried to recall what she had said and done before she fell asleep. However, her mind was a mess and she couldn't figure it out no matter how hard she tried.
"Alright, stop shaking me. Let's go eat and then we'll go home." Huo Shaoheng reached out to pull her up.
She threw herself forward into Huo Shaoheng's arms.
Huo Shaoheng was speechless. He felt that something was different about Gu Nianzhi now that she was awake.
Gu Nianzhi smiled and wrapped her arms around Huo Shaoheng's waist to give him a hug. She quickly let go and supported herself against the wall as she left the room.
Although she walked unsteadily, she didn't show any signs of falling.
When she exited the small room, she saw two tables set up outside.
This time, it was a table for the men and another table for the women. Because everyone was eating medicinal cuisine, the men ate different medicinal cuisine than the women ate, so they had to be separated.
When Gu Nianzhi, Mrs. Cui, Xue Xinran, and Guo Huining ate, she discovered that they were drinking red wine.
"Nianzhi, this 1982 Lafite tastes pretty good." Guo Huining poured a small glass for Gu Nianzhi. "It's mellow. I like it."
Gu Nianzhi had just drunk Maotai that morning. It was white wine, so now they were asking for red wine. She wanted to refuse, but when she saw how excited Mrs. Cui and Xue Xinran were, and how the men were focused on their own business, she gritted her teeth and forced herself to drink.
As expected, the white wine she had drunk in the morning hadn't been metabolized yet, so it was mixed with the red wine.
When Huo Shaoheng finally realized what was going on and asked her to stop drinking, she was already more drunk than she had been in the morning.
Mrs. Cui and Xue Xinran were embarrassed. They quickly said, "It's our fault, we didn't know Little Gu's tolerance was so low."
Guo Huining, who had been the most aggressive in persuading Gu Nianzhi to drink, shrank to the side and said nothing.
"It's not a matter of tolerance. Even a man with a high tolerance can't handle the combination of high quality white wine and high quality red wine." Xue Jingjiang sighed and called for Gu Nianzhi to be stewed to sober her up.
Huo Shaoheng looked at the time. It was almost 6: 00. He hugged Gu Nianzhi and said, "It's fine, I'll take her home. We've been out all day, it's time to go back. "
He had originally come out with Gu Nianzhi to buy things for his mother, but they had ended up shopping all day.
He had drunk so much that he couldn't drive. He had no choice but to call Fan Jian and ask him to pick them up at the underground parking lot of Scion Plaza.
Gu Nianzhi was completely drunk.
She didn't remember getting in the car or how she got home.
She only remembered curling into a warm embrace as soon as the night wind blew.
Her mind, which had been muddled from her nap, was starting to connect again.
In her drunken stupor, Gu Nianzhi recalled their unfinished conversation.
Huo Shaoheng draped an arm around her shoulders and led her to his suite on the first floor.
Gu Nianzhi clung to his arm and said drunkenly, "Huo Shao, you want to know who I like, don't you? I remember you asked … "
Huo Shaoheng didn't say anything and calmly walked into his room.
Gu Nianzhi's hand caressed the side of his face impatiently, then moved forward to his lips.
Her fingers traced the shape of his lips as she sleep-talked, "The person in my heart is you … Uncle Huo … Huo Shao … Shaoheng …"
As soon as Gu Nianzhi called out "Shaoheng," Huo Shaoheng had already kicked the door open and nimbly turned around. He grabbed her arms with one hand and pushed them high into the air. With the other hand, he raked his fingers through her black hair and pressed her against the wall by the door. Without a word, he leaned down and rained kisses on her curvy lips.
Gu Nianzhi's seductive skills were laughably childish, but to him, it was the most difficult test of his life.
The moment she said his name, she was the most powerful weapon in the world, destroying all of his toughness.
Huo Shaoheng kissed her like he was gnawing on her, his lips ravaging hers.
The tip of his tongue pried open her tightly closed lips and delved into her fragrant interior, wanting nothing more than to block all her breath.
His lips and tongue ravaged her, washing her. He kissed her thoroughly inside and out. This was not enough. He even started to bite her lips bit by bit, and then bit the tip of her tongue, forcefully holding it and refusing to let go.
Gu Nianzhi was completely sober the moment Huo Shaoheng pounced on her and kissed her.
She was forcefully pressed against the wall by Huo Shaoheng and passively enduring his kisses.
Her entire body was trembling, and her consciousness was beyond her control.
She couldn't believe that all of this was real. She felt like she was dreaming, and there really was everything in a dream, including the most impossible person's wild kisses. It was just like how she used to secretly fantasize about it every night …
His strong arms surpassed even her boldest imagination, and were more perfect than all of her imaginations.
He kissed me!
He kissed me!
He really kissed me!
Gu Nianzhi's entire body trembled as if she had been electrocuted.
She tried to respond. She also wanted to feel him, wanted to know if all of this was real or just a dream.
But she couldn't move because of Huo Shaoheng.
She was completely under his control, and even her breathing was involuntarily controlled. Even her lips and tongue were tightly sucked in by him. The tip of his tongue moved in and out of her lips, bringing with it waves of soreness and numbness.
But she didn't feel suffocated, nor did she feel pain. She only wanted to surrender to his most powerful shackles. She was willing to be imprisoned by his love and become a prison.
Huo Shaoheng's breath on his lips carried the sweet taste of alcohol and a little smoke. There was also the faint smell of sulfur between his fingers. It was the smell of gunpowder from bullets and leather.
The strange thing was that when these scents were mixed together, it didn't smell bad at all. Instead, it was filled with an indescribable masculinity that strongly attracted Gu Nianzhi. It made her think of Desert Dust, River Sunset, a general in uniform, a bow and arrow in his hand, a wine pouch at his waist, and prey on horseback.
Gu Nianzhi's legs grew weaker and weaker, and she couldn't stand. She could only wrap around him like soft vines.
If Huo Shaoheng hadn't raised her hands to support them against the wall with one hand, she really would've slipped to the ground.
But after holding them for a long time, Gu Nianzhi couldn't help feeling her arms ache.
She cried out twice and began to struggle.
Huo Shaoheng paused and finally stopped the torrential kisses. He moved away from her lips and let go of her arms. He lowered his head and buried it against Gu Nianzhi's neck, slowly calming his heavy breathing.
