Huo Shaoheng didn't say anything else. He nodded and waited for Gu Nianzhi to pack up before going out with her.
After Gu Nianzhi went downstairs, she asked Lu Jin, "Dad, aren't you going?"
"No, I suddenly had a sudden impulse today and used the Book of Changes to do a divination. It's not appropriate for me to go out." Lu Jin waved his hand without looking up. "Eat more and eat my share."
Gu Nianzhi smiled. "Okay, Dad. If you're hungry, there's something in the fridge. You can ask the orderly to heat it up and eat it."
"I know, I know. I'm not picky." Lu Jin turned around and glared at her.
The corners of Gu Nianzhi's mouth twitched.
Not picky?
Only her father, Lu Jin, could say this without blushing.
Gu Nianzhi chuckled and got into the car with Huo Shaoheng.
On a weekend evening, the road from the imperial capital to the West Mountains was very congested.
The usual drive took less than an hour, but this time it took almost two hours.
Fortunately, the two of them had planned for the traffic jam, so when they arrived at the parking lot of the clubhouse restaurant, they were still five minutes away from the agreed time.
Gu Nianzhi got out of the car in a good mood.
Looking around, the night was vast, and the light purple mist lingered in the ravines between the mountains.
The lush trees stood between the mountains not far away, lush and lush.
The light from the street lamps shone on the full green leaves of the trees by the side of the road, like waxed and polished green jade.
The clubhouse restaurant in front of them was an antique brick and wood building with white walls and black tiles. It complemented the mountains and forests.
"What are you looking at? Let's go." Huo Shaoheng held her hand and walked leisurely to the entrance of the restaurant.
"Hello, do you have a reservation?" the waiter at the door asked politely.
Gu Nianzhi nodded. "Yes, I booked a private room."
The waiter looked at the name she said and smiled. "Please come with me."
He led Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng to the private room Gu Nianzhi had booked. Huo Guanchen and grandfather Huo were already waiting there.
Other than the two of them, Gu Nianzhi was not surprised to see Yuan Jianan and Zhang Baochen sitting there as well.
As long as grandfather Huo was invited, she had to be prepared that the old man would bring his beloved little illegitimate son along.
As long as she was inviting Huo Guanchen, she had to be prepared that he would bring some strange women to dinner.
Gu Nianzhi was already mentally prepared. She sat down with Huo Shaoheng, who was always calm and collected, and greeted them with a smile. "Uncle, Grandfather Huo, good evening."
He nodded at Zhang Baochen and said politely, "Mr Zhang, long time no see."
Finally, he looked at Yuan Jianan, who was sitting between Huo Guanchen and Zhang Baochen, and asked curiously, "Who is this lady? She looks so gentle and delicate. Is she Mr. Zhang's female companion?"
The corners of Huo Guanchen's mouth twitched.
Zhang Baochen quickly waved his hands and smiled fawningly. "I don't have such good fortune. Nianzhi, you think too highly of me. This is Mrs. Yuan, Second Brother's female companion. She's not mine. If my wife finds out, she will tear me apart! "
Gu Nianzhi laughed hysterically. "Ah, Mr. Zhang is afraid of Mrs. Zhang?"
"That's true. The men of the Huo family are all henpecked," Grandfather Huo suddenly said.
Gu Nianzhi was still a greenhorn after all, and her acting skills weren't up to par. Grandfather Huo's words "the men of the Huo family" caused her to break down.
Her eyes narrowed slightly, and the smile was still on her face, but it was like a mask, and it was rather stiff.
"Oh, that's right. Mr. Zhang's surname seems to be Zhang, not Huo!" Gu Nianzhi pursed her lips and picked up the menu to flip through.
Huo Shaoheng coughed and smiled at grandfather Huo, who was about to lose his temper. "Nianzhi is young and immature, and she's serious. Don't lower yourself to her level. But what she said makes sense. Since Mr. Zhang is your biological son, you should let him change his surname and return to the family. Otherwise, if he keeps using someone else's surname, even passersby won't accept him as a man of the Huo family. Don't you think so? "
Huo Guanchen raised his eyebrows slightly and said unhappily, "Baochen isn't the only man of the Huo family who doesn't have the surname Huo."
Gu Nianzhi was really furious now.
Was he comparing President Lu to Zhang Baochen, his illegitimate son?
Did he deserve it?
Gu Nianzhi's face darkened. Just as she was about to lose her temper, the door to the private room was pushed open again. Lu Yuan and Song Jinning walked in.
Lu Yuan was tall and handsome. His mature man's charm had reached a state where he could control it freely.
Song Jinning didn't need to be mentioned in vain. Gu Nianzhi had called her several times to remind her that she had dressed up carefully today.
She was wearing a pearl-white silk shirt with a mid-sleeved collar and the same color pants that just reached her ankles.
She was wearing the famous black high heels with red soles.
Pure elegance and sexy charm were perfectly integrated on her body. Coupled with an extremely beautiful and impeccable face, she was like a rose in full bloom. She knew that it was going to wither in the next moment, so she tried her best to bloom.
She was so beautiful that it seemed like there was no tomorrow.
Gu Nianzhi was also extremely beautiful, but she didn't have the unique charm of a mature woman like Song Jinning.
On the other hand, Yuan Jianan's gentle beauty made people unable to look away. When Gu Nianzhi first saw Yuan Jianan's photo, she had thought that she was the only woman who could compare to Song Jinning.
However, as soon as Song Jinning came in, Gu Nianzhi immediately knew that she had made a huge mistake.
Song Jinning was like a beam of light. Under her reflection, Yuan Jianan's delicate features suddenly looked a little dull.
There was no harm without comparison, especially between beauties.
There was no first place in literature, and no second place in martial arts.
There was no such thing as a true beauty.
Everyone in the private room was stunned by Song Jinning's beauty and fell silent for a while.
Gu Nianzhi stood up and smiled in surprise. "Ms. Song, you're here! You look so good today. You're getting prettier every day. If this goes on, what will happen?"
Huo Guanchen looked up as well. His heart was beating wildly, but his expression didn't change much. However, his gaze was much deeper than before.
His gaze only lingered on Song Jinning's face for a moment before turning to Lu Yuan, who was beside Song Jinning. He chuckled and said, "Nianzhi, this isn't something you need to worry about. This is something that Ms. Song's current husband needs to worry about."
Lu Yuan, Ms. Song's current husband, calmly pulled out a chair and held Song Jinning's arm to let her sit next to Gu Nianzhi. He sat between Song Jinning and Huo Guanchen.
The corners of Huo Guanchen's mouth twitched again.
Yuan Jianan, who was sitting next to him, said in surprise, "Is it Director Song? We've met before. Oh my, you look so beautiful dressed up. You look much better than when you were only wearing a white coat in the laboratory."
After a pause, she looked at Huo Guanchen, whose smile was gradually disappearing. She then looked at Song Jinning and said with a smile, "Did you dress up because you're coming here to eat with us?"
