When Vladimir, who was in Huaxia, saw the email, it was Monday evening.
The worst day of the week was after work on Monday.
The laziness of the weekend was still imprinted in his bones, but now he was facing a whole week of not being able to relax.
Office workers were usually not in a good mood at this time. Many people were used to going to bars or restaurants to relax after work on Monday. Only when they had enough energy would they be able to devote themselves to the busy work of the following week.
Vladimir was currently in a half-working state. He and his driver, Ivan, were sitting in an open-air bar on the Third Ring Road of the imperial capital. Each of them was holding a phone and playing a red packet snatching game with Gu Nianzhi.
Even if they could only grab a few yuan each time, they would still grab it with relish.
Gu Nianzhi was waiting for dinner in the dining room of Huo Shaoheng's official residence. While Huo Shaoheng was talking to Lu Jin, she took the opportunity to chat with Vladimir and the others on her phone and send red packets.
She sent out a series of red envelopes and purposely set it to two people to see who was faster.
In the end, she and the driver, Ivan, snatched it many times, but she didn't see Vladimir make a move. She was a little surprised and quietly sent a private message to the driver, Ivan: [Uncle driver, what's wrong with the second-in-command?]
The driver, Ivan, took a look and replied, [He's reading an email. Maybe it's his lover. You know, he's so focused, as if he's looking into his lover's eyes.]
Gu Nianzhi, "…"
This was not the driver uncle's style!
She waited for a while, and when she couldn't help but ask, Vladimir took the initiative to send her a private message: [… Cereus, are you familiar with the name Song Haichuan?]
"!!!"
Was it the "Song Haichuan" she was familiar with?
Gu Nianzhi blinked and carefully replied: Which Song Haichuan? You should know that there are many people with the same name in China, and this name is not unique. For example, 'Big Ivan' …]
Vladimir sent a string of ellipses: […] and then called her directly.
"Cereus, do you know which Song Haichuan I'm talking about? The Song Haichuan related to your fiancé."
Gu Nianzhi took a deep breath. "You mean my fiancé's maternal grandfather, Song Haichuan? The former director of the Institute of High Energy Physics? "
"Yes, that's him. Do you know him? In other words, does your fiancé understand him? " Vladimir frowned as he looked at the email. After some thought, he forwarded it to Gu Nianzhi. "I sent you an email. Take a look and then show it to your fiancé."
"What is it? So mysterious … "Gu Nianzhi muttered as she clicked on the email forwarded by Vladimir.
Her eyebrows couldn't help but twitch.
What the hell was going on?
This was clearly a setup that they had worked together on, but now, they seemed to be shooting themselves in the foot.
Gu Nianzhi's heart was in a mess. She casually chatted with Vladimir and the driver, Ivan, for a while, then said that she was going to eat and said goodbye to them.
She walked into the kitchen with her phone in her hand. Lu Jin happened to walk out. Seeing her unhappy expression, he asked curiously, "What's wrong? Was he starving? Can I get you some snacks? "
Like Gu Nianzhi, Lu Jin had a bad temper when he was hungry.
As long as he was full, everything could be discussed.
The corners of Gu Nianzhi's mouth twitched. "Dad, go wait. I'll bring the dishes."
"Okay!" Lu Jin smiled and nodded. "I'll go outside and take a look."
After he left, Gu Nianzhi came to Huo Shaoheng's side and asked in a low voice, "Major General Huo, how much do you know about your grandfather, Mr. Song Haichuan?"
Huo Shaoheng was scooping the dishes out of the pot. He paused and said, "Not bad. What's wrong? Why are you suddenly interested in my grandfather? "
"I just wanted to ask, isn't your grandfather a physicist? Does he also know how to code? " As Gu Nianzhi spoke, she forwarded Vladimir's email to Huo Shaoheng and showed him her phone. "Here, this is it. Are you shocked?"
Huo Shaoheng glanced at it, and his heart skipped a beat. However, he was more composed and didn't show it on the surface. He said casually, "You'll have to ask Ms. Song about that."
Gu Nianzhi suddenly realized and slapped her forehead. "That's right! I only thought of asking you. How old were you back then? You must know more about Ms. Song! "
Huo Shaoheng came back to his senses and calmed down to plate the dishes. He and Gu Nianzhi brought them to the dining room for dinner.
Lu Jin and Gu Nianzhi were still full of praise for the food. Huo Shaoheng maintained his smile, but his mind had already flown away.
This was a trap set up by their agency in cooperation with the Russian Committee of State Security (KGB). Just like Gu Nianzhi, Huo Shaoheng hadn't expected this to be related to his grandfather, Song Haichuan, who had passed away 19 years ago.
He had a vague feeling that something was wrong, but he didn't want to prejudge the whole thing.
After dinner, Lu Jin called Gu Nianzhi back to his official residence next door. Gu Nianzhi thought about the email and waved at Lu Jin with a smile. "Dad, I want to go see Ms. Song and CEO Lu with Major General Huo."
"Huh? Oh … "Lu Jin waved his hand." Then you guys go ahead. I won't go. I've been doing an experiment for the past few days and it's almost done. I have to go make the final observations. "
Gu Nianzhi nodded with a smile. "Okay, then I'll be home later."
"Don't be too late. You have to work tomorrow." Lu Jin was very dutiful as a father. In fact, if Gu Nianzhi stayed in bed, he wouldn't stop her at all.
"Got it, Dad. You should go to bed early too." Gu Nianzhi smiled as she walked him out.
Huo Shaoheng followed her out and parked his car at the entrance of Lu Jin's official residence.
After Gu Nianzhi came out, the two of them quickly drove to Lu Yuan's villa in the West Mountains.
It was already dark outside, but it was still early. It wasn't even eight o 'clock, and there weren't many cars on the road. It only took the two of them half an hour to arrive at Lu Yuan's villa in the West Mountains.
On the way, Gu Nianzhi had already called to confirm that Lu Yuan and Song Jinning were both at home.
The two of them had just finished dinner and were planning to take a walk on the mountain road as a way to digest their food.
When he received Gu Nianzhi's call, Lu Yuan could hear the uneasiness and urgency in her tone. He smiled and said, "Okay, come over. Jinning and I will make tea and wait for you."
Not long after, Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng sat in the study of Lu Yuan's villa.
There was a straw coffee table in front of the four of them. On the coffee table was an ancient Kung Fu teacup. Song Jinning was boiling water and sifting tea.
"Why are you in such a hurry? What's the matter?" Lu Yuan asked with concern and handed Gu Nianzhi a cup of tea. "Have some tea to calm your mind."
Gu Nianzhi took a sip of tea and looked at Huo Shaoheng. She frowned and said, "Major General Huo, are you going to tell me, or should I?"
Huo Shaoheng sat upright with a serious expression.
He looked at Song Jinning and first took out Gu Nianzhi's phone. He took a screenshot of the email and showed it to Song Jinning and Lu Yuan.
"Ms. Song, I want to ask what grandfather did before he entered the Institute of High Energy Physics?"
