The Zhang family was silent. Even grandfather Huo took a serious look at Gu Nianzhi.
This little orphan girl with unknown parents was actually so particular about her food.
When she was so familiar with the bowl of glutinous rice balls just now, grandfather Huo almost thought that he was seeing his wife, Xie Ziyan, when she was young.
Although she looked completely different from Gu Nianzhi, when it came to food, she had always been "never tired of eating delicacies". She was indeed a pampered young lady.
Grandfather Huo's eyes darkened. In all these years, he had never missed his wife, who had passed away more than ten years ago, as much as he did today.
"Dad, look at Miss Gu. She's looking down on our glutinous rice balls." Qian Shihui pursed her lips and criticized Gu Nianzhi in front of grandfather Huo.
However, grandfather Huo raised his hand and said weakly, "Alright, she's not used to the food here. You guys can go. I'm already very happy that you came to see me today. "
As he spoke, he raised his head and said to Huo Guanchen, "Guanchen, prepare a plane ticket for me. I want to go to France to see your mother."
After his wife, Xie Ziyan, passed away, she wasn't buried in Babaoshan. Instead, she left her last words that she wanted to be buried in her mother's home in France.
At that time, the Xie family had sent a private plane to transport her coffin back to France and buried it in the Xie family cemetery.
Huo Guanchen was slightly stunned, but quickly nodded in agreement.
The Zhang family looked at each other awkwardly and didn't dare to say a word.
..
After leaving Huo Guanchen's villa, Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng drove directly to the villa on the road.
Gu Nianzhi saw that Huo Shaoheng's mood seemed to be affected, so she wanted to change the topic and stop him from thinking about grandfather Huo.
She sat next to Huo Shaoheng and tossed her phone like she was playing with a ball. She smiled and asked Huo Shaoheng, "Major General Huo, if I try to hack Guo Hongmao's phone now, will I alert the enemy?"
Huo Shaoheng held the steering wheel with both hands and said without blinking, "I've already asked Little Ze to check. If you want to know anything, you can ask Little Ze."
Gu Nianzhi nodded like she was pounding garlic, "I know, I know. The other party is too powerful, and I don't want to disrupt your plans. Then I'll send Brother Ze a message and ask if he has any information I want to see. "
Not long after, Huo Shaoheng's car arrived at the other side of the West Mountain and drove towards the villa halfway up the mountain.
Zhao Liangze sent the information that Gu Nianzhi wanted, but he sent it to Huo Shaoheng first so that he could read it before forwarding it to Gu Nianzhi.
Huo Shaoheng looked at it and forwarded it to Gu Nianzhi. "Take a look for yourself. See if there's anything new about Guo Hongmao's phone."
The contents of the first mobile phone were normal.
There was nothing bad about it.
It was as clean as a lawyer's work phone.
The second phone was the one he used to contact his relatives and friends.
There was more content in this phone.
Gu Nianzhi watched with relish.
She sent the interesting content to a secret mailbox in the cloud and smiled at Huo Shaoheng. "Huo Shao, guess what I found?!"
Huo Shaoheng glanced at her and said without batting an eyelid, "This is Guo Hongmao's biological father, right?"
"You already knew. Stop pretending!" Gu Nianzhi snapped her fingers and said with a smile, "To be precise, he's the illegitimate child of the Cai family. He's the half-brother of Cai Songyin and Cai Sumin, right? "
Huo Shaoheng didn't deny it, nor did he admit it. He smiled and said, "… He's Mr. Cai's illegitimate child? The Cai family is a family of scholars … "
"What's so strange about that? It's precisely because they're a family of scholars that this kind of thing happens a lot … Can the illegitimate child of a scholar be called an illegitimate child? " Gu Nianzhi winked at Huo Shaoheng and smiled. "This is a by-product of a scholar's night of reading."
"So that means Guo Hongmao's capital for doing business has a source." Huo Shaoheng didn't respond to Gu Nianzhi's words and thought about something else.
"You said it's from the Cai family, Mr. Cai's side?" Gu Nianzhi shook her head. "But he changed his surname to Guo again. It's obvious he doesn't want to be related to the Cai family … Why would he want the Cai family's money?"
Huo Shaoheng didn't even think about it and immediately said, "Changing his surname might just be a smokescreen to prevent people from discovering the true source of his money. You have to know that he was already a big businessman more than a decade ago. Even the Hong Corporation has to give him some face. "
Gu Nianzhi shook her head and frowned at the phone. "But he seems to still be in contact with Cai Sumin and Cai Songyin. He'll send them messages during the New Year or something. They're not too close, but they're definitely not strangers. Unlike the Guo family, where he basically pretends his mother doesn't exist."
Gu Nianzhi looked at it for a while and felt bored, so she closed the page and began to look at the information on Guo Hongmao's third phone.
This phone didn't have a phone number, so it could only use Wi-Fi to surf the Internet.
Gu Nianzhi casually flipped through the contents of the phone and discovered there were a few text messages.
The content of the text messages was very ordinary.
However, the sender's number made the corners of Gu Nianzhi's eyes twitch.
She happened to have seen this number before, and she knew that it was actually an empty number. It had been disguised by someone, so she couldn't find out where it had come from.
Gu Nianzhi couldn't help asking Huo Shaoheng, "Major General Huo, have you checked the text messages on this phone without a phone number?"
Huo Shaoheng nodded. "You mean the number that sent the text messages, right? We've checked it. It's an empty number. It's been disguised, so we can't find out where it came from. "
He had the same opinion as Gu Nianzhi.
She couldn't hesitate anymore.
Seeing that Lu Yuan's villa was within reach, Gu Nianzhi patiently got out of the car with Huo Shaoheng and entered the house.
"Nianzhi, you're finally here! I ordered a lot of your favorite dishes! "
Lu Jin happily came out to welcome them.
Huo Shaoheng walked behind Gu Nianzhi and greeted Lu Yuan and Song Jinning, who were behind Lu Jin.
"CEO Lu, Ms. Song." He handed over the gifts he had brought.
"Shaoheng, you and Nianzhi should have come together. Why did you bring gifts? We're not outsiders, "Song Jinning said angrily as she took the gift from Huo Shaoheng.
It was a bottle of 1983 five-star Guizhou Maotai. It was much better than the 1983 Lafite. It was truly a priceless item.
Lu Yuan was stunned when he saw it. After a long time, he smiled and said, "… You actually have more of this wine?"
Huo Shaoheng said calmly, "Grandmother left it behind. It's not much. It's all in the wine cellar. When I'm free in the future, I'll bring you a few bottles and put them here."
Lu Yuan nodded. "We'll talk about it later."
The few of them entered the house and sat down in the living room to exchange a few pleasantries.
Lu Jin had arrived early in the morning. He was in the kitchen directing Lu Yuan to cook some dishes that he and Gu Nianzhi both liked to eat.
Of course, Lu Yuan wouldn't only cook the dishes that Lu Jin and Gu Nianzhi liked to eat. He had made a few dishes that Song Jinning and Huo Shaoheng liked to eat.
Now, they were basically all ready. The stewed, steamed, fried, and roasted dishes were all ready to be served.
When they arrived, he would immediately stir-fry a few dishes and then they would be ready to eat.
When Lu Yuan went to the kitchen to cook, Song Jinning also went to accompany him.
Lu Jin still wanted to go over, but Gu Nianzhi stopped him. She said coquettishly, "Dad, you've been with President Lu all day. Can you accompany me now?"
When Lu Jin heard this, he couldn't even move. He sat on the sofa and almost took root.
Seeing Gu Nianzhi like this, Huo Shaoheng knew that she had something to say again, but he looked at her with a smile without saying anything.
Gu Nianzhi gave him a look, then became serious and said, "Major General Huo, speaking of the text message I received on Guo Hongmao's third phone, I have some thoughts."
Lu Jin blinked and held Gu Nianzhi's hand. "Miss, who is Guo Hongmao? What text message? What are you talking about? Can I listen? "
"Of course you can." Gu Nianzhi patted the back of Lu Jin's hand and smiled. "We have no choice, so we want you to help us think about it and see if there's a breakthrough."
"What is it? Can I help? "Lu Jin rubbed his hands excitedly." Tell me, tell me! "
Gu Nianzhi looked at Huo Shaoheng inquiringly.
Huo Shaoheng nodded slightly and said, "It's like this. Guo Hongmao is Guo Huining's uncle, but he's her grandmother's illegitimate child …"
Huo Shaoheng briefly introduced Guo Hongmao's background and his relationship with Guo Huining.
Lu Jin understood and snorted. "It has something to do with Guo Huining? I'll see how I feel … I won't help if I can. "
