Teaching Her How to Be A Good Person (3K3)
"Professor He told you?" Zhao Liangze grew serious. "Are you sure? Does it really have something to do with the Gu's in Barbados? Can he be trusted? "
They had deep suspicions about He Zhichu, but they didn't let Gu Nianzhi know.
Gu Nianzhi wasn't one of them, so there was a lot of information they couldn't reveal to her.
Gu Nianzhi closed her eyes and said slowly, "I can definitely trust him. Brother Ze, can I speak to Huo Shao now?"
There was already a hint of impatience in her voice.
She really wasn't in the mood to joke around with Zhao Liangze right now.
She couldn't wait to share the truth she had been pursuing for six or seven years with Huo Shaoheng. She also wanted to hear his opinions and opinions.
Zhao Liangze sensed Gu Nianzhi's impatience and was a bit surprised. It seemed like the problem was really serious.
He thought about it and said, "Huo Shao went out to meet people this morning and didn't bring his personal phone. Why don't you call his work number?"
"He went out to work so early in the morning?" Gu Nianzhi's eyes widened in shock. "It's only a little past seven in the morning over there, right? Huo Shao isn't even at the military base. Why would he wake up so early to go to work? "
Zhao Liangze chuckled. "It's to accommodate Miss Gu's schedule. Huo Shao made an appointment to meet with her yesterday to discuss some business. Miss Gu said she's only free during her morning run and morning tea, so Huo Shao went to see her early in the morning. "
Gu Nianzhi furrowed her brows and muttered, "Is running time and drinking morning tea time for business? He's so arrogant … "
"Haha, Nianzhi, what are you talking about?" Zhao Liangze couldn't tell Gu Yanran what was going on with her. The military had already gotten involved, so it had changed from a private matter to a business matter.
Gu Nianzhi sighed softly and pushed away the unhappiness in her chest. She said to Zhao Liangze, "Then I'll call Huo Shao's work number."
Zhao Liangze knew Gu Nianzhi was very sensible and would never call Huo Shao's work number without their permission unless it was absolutely necessary.
Zhao Liangze couldn't bear to see her being so obedient. He hesitated for a moment before whispering to her, "Mr. Huo has a very troublesome matter to deal with right now. Nianzhi, bear with it. If there's anything you can't handle, tell your Brother Ze and Brother Xiong. We'll definitely be able to help you."
Gu Nianzhi smiled and walked to the dormitory window to look at the night view of the campus. She tried to calm her nerves. "Brother Ze, I will not cause you any trouble. I know that Huo Shao went to Barbados and met Gu Yanran. This matter is closely related to the Gu family and Gu Yanran. "
She didn't mention that it was closely related to her, because Zhao Liangze had already hinted that she probably had some personal matters that she couldn't deal with, which was why she was looking for Huo Shaoheng. She didn't want him to misunderstand more.
"Yes, I understand." Zhao Liangze hung up and poured himself a cup of coffee uneasily. He said to Yin Shixiong, who was taking notes on the computer, "Nianzhi called Huo Shao urgently just now. She said it had something to do with the Gu's. Do you think Professor He really told her something?"
"Ah? Professor He? "Yin Shixiong turned around in surprise and stood up from his computer." Are you sure? Did Nianzhi say anything? "
"She didn't go into details. She just wanted to see Huo Shao." Zhao Liangze hit his forehead with his fist. "I have a feeling that something big is about to happen."
"Let's wait and see." Yin Shixiong said calmly, "Let's just do our jobs. If there are any bigger changes, it's not something we can control."
"Yeah, I'm just too concerned." Zhao Liangze finished his coffee in one gulp and returned to his computer to work.
Only work could calm him down.
…
At the same time, in another seaside villa of the Gu's, Gu Yanran was wearing a snow-white tennis shirt and a similarly snow-white cotton headband around her forehead. She was wearing dark blue tennis shoes and was sitting in the flowers on her balcony eating breakfast. In the distance was the azure Caribbean Sea, and there were seabirds circling in the blue sky.
Because it was far away, the noise of the waves couldn't be heard at all. She could only see the beauty and majesty of the sea.
Huo Shaoheng wore a pair of sunglasses and crossed his arms as he stood on the balcony and gazed into the distance. He couldn't stop praising the beautiful scenery.
"Miss Gu really knows how to enjoy life. This villa is surrounded by mountains and green water. The distant sea breeze is blocked by the mountains over there and the moisture from the sea is filtered. It's indeed a great place for a family vacation."
"Huo Shao really knows how to appreciate things." Gu Yanran elegantly used a silver knife and fork to take a bite of bacon. She paired it with a few fresh red grapes from her vineyard and ate it with relish. "Huo Shao, don't you want to eat some?"
Although Huo Shaoheng didn't care, there was no trace of impatience in his eyes. He said calmly, "No need. I had breakfast this morning and am already very full."
"What a pity. I even specially prepared some breakfast for Huo Shao. " Gu Yanran shook her head regretfully. "This Kobe steak is only medium rare and melts in your mouth. Huo Shao really doesn't want to try it?"
Huo Shaoheng shook his head and walked over to sit across from Gu Yanran. "Can we talk about business now? May I ask where Mr. Gu is? When do you plan to leave? "
Gu Yanran smiled slyly, revealing two deep dimples on her face. "Mr. Huo, can't you see that I'm eating breakfast?"
She was the one who said that there was only breakfast for Huo Shaoheng to talk about business. Now she was the one who said that they couldn't talk about business during breakfast. Was she messing with him?
Huo Shaoheng was a bit angry, but he didn't show it at all. He still nodded politely and said, "Okay, then we'll talk after breakfast?"
"Yes, it won't take too long."
Gu Yanran secretly thought that it wouldn't be that easy …
She obviously slowed down her eating speed.
Whenever Huo Shaoheng looked over, she would look up and smile sweetly at him. "… You're anxious, aren't you?"
Huo Shaoheng could tell that she was stalling, so he took out his phone and played with it. He said slowly, "There's no rush. Take your time. There are blue skies and white clouds here. The sea breeze and waves are so nice. I can take my time to enjoy the scenery."
He had a carefree expression on his face, and even his tone had some of the playboy aura of the Imperial Capital's officials.
Gu Yanran was very surprised by Huo Shaoheng's behavior. She glanced at him and slowly finished the bacon before starting to eat the porridge.
Just when they were at a stalemate, Huo Shaoheng's phone rang.
His heart skipped a beat.
This was his work phone. Who would be calling at a time like this?
But he could use this call as an excuse to leave for a while.
Huo Shaoheng unlocked the phone and saw that it was Gu Nianzhi's number. He was even more surprised, but he still stood up and said to Gu Yanran, "Excuse me, I have to take this call."
"Take it, take it. It's fine. I haven't finished my breakfast yet." Gu Yanran winked at him and smiled happily.
Gu Yanran truly felt that she had vented her anger to be able to make Huo Shaoheng, who had been so harsh to her a few days ago, behave like this.
She had never met a man who completely ignored her in her entire life, but he just happened to be so right up her alley.
Huo Shaoheng walked to the balcony where he had been standing and answered the call. "… What's wrong?"
Something big must have happened to Gu Nianzhi for him to call his work phone at this time.
Gu Nianzhi heard Huo Shaoheng's tone and knew there was someone next to him. She immediately remembered that it was probably Gu Yanran.
Her voice was much quieter. "Huo Shao, is it convenient to talk? It's very important. Otherwise, I wouldn't be calling your number at this time. I've called your private number many times, but no one picked up … "
Huo Shaoheng put one hand in his trouser pocket and stood on the balcony with his side facing Gu Yanran.
His voice wasn't loud, but it wasn't soft either. His tone was very normal. "Yeah, go ahead."
Gu Nianzhi took a deep breath and recounted what had happened that afternoon. Finally, she said, "… At 6: 30 PM, just half an hour ago, I received the results. It proves that Gu Nianzhi and I from the Gu family in Barbados are the same person."
Huo Shaoheng was shocked by this news. Although he remained expressionless, his heart was in turmoil.
He closed his eyes and took his other hand out of his trouser pocket to rub his forehead. Then he paced back and forth on the balcony near the railing as he digested this important news.
Gu Nianzhi didn't hear Huo Shaoheng's response for a long time. She thought the call had been disconnected. She checked her phone several times to make sure there was nothing wrong with it before she heard Huo Shaoheng's voice from the phone. "… Do you still have the test materials?"
"Yes, Professor He brought them back for me." After a pause, Gu Nianzhi continued, "All the experiments were conducted under Professor He's and my personal observation. Also, many of the experiments were personally conducted by me under Dr. Douglas's guidance. So the authenticity can be guaranteed. "
Huo Shaoheng pursed his lips and stopped calling. Instead, he texted Gu Nianzhi. "… But you and Gu Yanran really aren't related by blood. What's going on?"
Gu Nianzhi also texted him. "Even if they aren't related by blood, they can still be related by blood. According to the law, a sisterhood from a second marriage, as well as a sisterhood from adoption, is legal. "
Huo Shaoheng immediately understood that they had made a mistake in their previous investigation.
Also, they really didn't expect that although Gu Yanran and Gu Nianzhi were sisters, they weren't related by blood!
He turned around to look at Gu Yanran, who was eating breakfast. He didn't expect Gu Yanran to also be looking at him. Seeing him look over, Gu Yanran gave him a bright smile and waved her hand. "Mr. Huo, you really don't want to have breakfast together?"
Her voice was very loud, so Gu Nianzhi heard it.
However, Gu Nianzhi was completely calm now. She was concerned about Huo Shaoheng's reaction to this, not Gu Yanran.
Huo Shaoheng immediately made a decision. "Hurry up and fax all the information to Little Ze. I'll go back immediately. After confirming it, I might need your help with some things. Don't hang up. We'll talk as we walk. "
Huo Shaoheng pressed the pause button and walked to Gu Yanran's dining table. He spread his hands. "Miss Gu, I have something urgent to attend to. I don't have time now. That's all for today. Goodbye."
Before Gu Yanran could react, Huo Shaoheng had already left her house.
Looking at Huo Shaoheng's tall and handsome back, Gu Yanran frowned.
What urgent matter was it? Could it be more important than her father's whereabouts?
Weren't these people in a hurry to get her father to their country?
…
As soon as Huo Shaoheng sat in the car, he told her about how Gu Yanran had been stalling and refusing to hand over Gu Xiangwen.
Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng's thoughts were very in sync. She immediately reacted and said anxiously, "What does she want? Huo Shao, let me go. I'll ask her for my father's whereabouts. If she dares to refuse, I'll teach her a lesson! "
