Gu Nianzhi wasn't a judge and didn't know how the court would sentence her, so she couldn't give Miao Yunxiao a definite answer. She could only say tactfully, "You can bring it up with your lawyer. If she has a way, she'll apply to the court."
Gu Nianzhi knew that if Miao Yunxiao really made a great contribution, the court could turn her into a tainted witness. With some further maneuvering, it wouldn't be impossible for her to not have a criminal record.
Miao Yunxiao nodded and was now completely obedient to Gu Nianzhi, "Ok, ok, I'll go find my lawyer right away. Classmate Gu, thank you! "
She bowed to Gu Nianzhi again to express her gratitude, then quickly ran out.
Gu Nianzhi and Ma Qiqi looked at each other and shook their heads. They didn't mention Miao Yunxiao again.
Gu Nianzhi packed her bag and said to Ma Qiqi, "It's almost eight, I have to go to Professor He's to hand in my homework. Do you have classes today?"
"Yes, public electives, and two professional classes." Ma Qiqi stretched. "I have to go too."
After saying goodbye to Ma Qiqi, Gu Nianzhi hurried downstairs to the professor's building where He Zhichu lived.
She didn't dare call and braced herself to press the doorbell when she arrived at He Zhichu's suite.
Almost at the same time the doorbell rang, the door to He Zhichu's suite opened.
He Zhichu stood expressionlessly at the door. His eyes were dark grey and his face was pale. It was obvious he hadn't slept all night.
Gu Nianzhi lowered her head guiltily and whispered, "Professor He, I'm here to deliver your homework."
He Zhichu's hand tightened on the doorknob, his thin lips moving but he didn't say anything. He stepped to the side and opened the door to wait for Gu Nianzhi to come in.
Gu Nianzhi moved in and immediately took out her laptop from her bag, "Professor He, I sent you everything you needed for today's electives and my thesis this morning."
He Zhichu grunted and turned to walk to the kitchen, "I haven't had breakfast yet. Have a seat."
Her voice, which used to be clear and cool, now had a thick nasal sound, as if she had caught a cold.
Gu Nianzhi felt very guilty and put down her bag to follow him to the kitchen. She asked with concern, "Professor He, do you have a cold?"
He Zhichu didn't say anything. He took out a bag of coffee and turned on the coffee machine to make coffee.
Gu Nianzhi paced around him. "Professor He, is it really okay to have coffee so early in the morning? You're not feeling well, so you'd better drink some milk … or do you want to cook porridge? "
He Zhichu looked at her coldly. "You know how to do it?"
"I won't." Gu Nianzhi shook her head honestly. "But I can try making ginger tea. You can drink a cup of hot ginger tea. It can keep you cold."
He Zhichu's expression was indifferent as he pointed at the induction cooker next to him. "Go do it."
"Oh." Gu Nianzhi walked over and opened He Zhichu's cupboard to take a look. She found the ginger candy and turned on her phone to search for information on how to make ginger tea.
He Zhichu's coffee was ready. He saw Gu Nianzhi holding her phone in one hand and standing in front of the induction cooker. She looked at her phone as she added water and ginger sugar to the small soup pot.
It was obvious that he was sharpening his spear just before the battle.
He Zhichu's mood, which had been pent up the entire night, finally improved. He carried his coffee to stand beside Gu Nianzhi and said casually, "Nianzhi, do you think I'll be lucky enough to drink your ginger tea before sunset today?"
Gu Nianzhi didn't turn around. "It doesn't have to take that long. It'll be ready in ten minutes. "
She realized He Zhichu was teasing her after she said that. She couldn't help but turn around and glare at him with a pout.
Her large eyes were bright and watery. When she looked at him from the corner of her eye, she actually looked flirtatious.
He Zhichu quickly looked down and took a big gulp of coffee before leaving the kitchen.
Ten minutes later, Gu Nianzhi's ginger tea was finally ready. She poured it into the coffee cup and held it out.
Just from the color, it really did look like coffee.
He Zhichu didn't resist and drank it in one gulp.
He had to admit that Gu Nianzhi's learning ability was very strong. Of course, maybe it was because ginger tea had all the ingredients and was easy to learn. In short, her first cup of ginger tea was very successful.
Not long after He Zhichu drank it, he felt a faint sweat on his back. His throbbing headache also improved.
He wasn't used to wearing sweaty clothes, so he planned to take a shower. He reminded Gu Nianzhi, "I sent you a few cases yesterday. Take a good look at them and prepare a transcript of the key points of the trial debate. I'll go wash up. "
Gu Nianzhi agreed and carried her laptop to the small study next to the living room to sit down.
Ever since she became He Zhichu's teaching assistant, he slowly transformed the small study into a room that suited Gu Nianzhi.
The desk was replaced with a beige color, and there was an additional cubicle bookshelf that was half the height of a person against the wall. It was sparsely filled with professional books.
On the other side of the room was a soft sofa that could be used as a bed. There were several pillows and blankets on it.
Sometimes in the afternoon, when she worked late at He Zhichu's place, she would take an afternoon nap on the small sofa bed so she didn't have to run around.
Of course, when she took an afternoon nap, she would lock the door from the inside, regardless of whether He Zhichu was in the room or not.
…
He Zhichu walked into his bedroom and went to the bathroom to turn on the water for a bath.
Before he could take off his clothes, he heard his phone ring.
This time, the ringtone was a bit strange. It was different from the Huaxia Empire's ringtone frequency.
He Zhichu's heart skipped a beat. He unlocked the phone and put it to his ear.
"Zhichu, when are you coming back?" An old, powerful voice came from the phone. The tone was firm, like someone who had been in a high position for a long time and naturally obeyed orders.
He Zhichu didn't care at all. "I'll go back when I'm done." He paused before asking, "Father, how are you?"
"I'll never get better if you don't come back." A few coughs came from the other side of the phone, followed by a crisp female voice whispering to He Zhichu's father.
He Zhichu could tell it was Auntie Qin's voice. He tightened his grip on the phone.
"Zhichu, I heard you found Nianzhi. Why didn't you bring her back?" Mr. He asked again. "With your abilities, is it that difficult?"
He Zhichu pursed his lips and didn't answer the question directly. He changed the subject. "Father, I heard you and Auntie Qin are planning to have another child. Do you need to find a good hospital to help?"
This successfully diverted Mr. He's attention. Or rather, it diverted Auntie Qin's attention.
Auntie Qin took the phone from Mr. He and said to He Zhichu, "Ah-Chu, you're making fun of your Auntie Qin. You know your father only has one son, and you're the only son he wants, yet you're still mad at him. Ah-Chu, come back quickly. Put that matter aside for now. Auntie Qin will think of a way. "
Although Auntie Qin was Mr. He's second wife after he passed away, He Zhichu never called her mother or Mrs. He. He only called her Auntie Qin like before.
He Zhichu shook his head. "I know. I'll hang up now. It won't be good if the people here notice. "
Auntie Qin immediately hung up, afraid to leave a trace.
He Zhichu looked at his phone and smiled. If he hadn't intercepted the Trojan virus of the Huaxia Imperial Special Forces, the call would have been intercepted by them.
Putting away his phone, He Zhichu went to the bathroom to take a bath.
What he didn't know was that although he had modified Zhao Liangze's Trojan virus, his phone needed the Nandou satellite system to receive cell phone signals. Zhao Liangze's Trojan virus relied on the Nandou satellite system to leave a backdoor. The call from his hometown still left some clues in the Special Forces' interception system.
Zhao Liangze was staring at the strange frequency coming from He Zhichu's phone in a daze.
It was obviously captured by his Trojan virus, but he couldn't crack it no matter how hard he tried.
He didn't believe that there was a password in this world that he or Gu Nianzhi couldn't crack!
Yes, he decided. If he couldn't crack it, he would go to Gu Nianzhi!
…
For the past few days, Prime Minister Dou had been under pressure from the Senate and the military.
"Prime Minister, the deadline for the Senate is approaching. Are you ready to be questioned by the Senate?" Prime Minister Dou's senior assistant asked worriedly. "The principal of B University has already been suspended. Once the new acting principal takes office, many things will be exposed …"
Prime Minister Dou braced himself and said, "What do I have to hide? Even if Aiyan met Miao Yunxiao, that doesn't mean she was talking to her about the Japanese woman! "
"But the Prime Minister's office called the principal's office to delete the video. How do you explain that?" The assistant asked anxiously.
He was the one who made the call, obviously under Prime Minister Dou's orders. The military and Senate had somehow found the audio of the call and were seeking permission from the court to use it as evidence in court.
"Don't worry, I'll think of something." Prime Minister Dou was about to speak when he saw a familiar hunched figure pushing a cleaning cart in. He quickly said to his assistant, "Go prepare your speech. I'll make a few calls."
His senior assistant bowed and left, gently closing the door.
Prime Minister Dou looked at the cleaning lady and breathed heavily. "Miss Yamaguchi, why are you here again?!"
