Bai Yueran understood Huo Shaoheng's meaning and said, "Judge Liao, you're not a normal judge. You're a judge of our military court's secret court. You should know that your job is different from normal judges."
Judge Liao was speechless.
"Although Mr. Huo said that we should focus on speed and efficiency, this case has actually dragged on for a long time. To be honest, we did make a mistake on this case. It took too long and we missed a lot of valuable information. " Bai Yueran added further. Seeing that Judge Liao was already convinced by their carrot and stick tactics, she finally took out the death sentence. "Would you like to sign this?"
Judge Liao had also been pressured by his superiors to treat this case "cautiously," so he didn't dare to give in.
However, Huo Shaoheng's words had indeed scared him.
He seemed to have just realized that the soldiers he was facing were not normal soldiers.
"Let me think about it …" Judge Liao stood up. "Every sentence has to be archived and sent to the Supreme Military Court for review. I've been a judge for so many years, I don't want to make any mistakes on this matter."
"Okay." Huo Shaoheng stood up as well. "I hope you can think it through before six. I'll wait for you here."
Judge Liao felt his straightened back bend again.
He walked to his office with a hunched back and left the door ajar.
Huo Shaoheng stared at Judge Liao's office door with his hands behind his back, as if he could pressure Judge Liao through the door.
Bai Yueran stood behind him and whispered, "Mr. Huo, are you really going to wait here forever?"
"I said six, so I have to get the death sentence at six," Huo Shaoheng said calmly. He also wanted to know who was "pressuring" Judge Liao.
Bai Yueran covered her mouth with her hand and yawned. "Then I'll go sleep in the room next door. Call me if you need anything."
"Okay." Huo Shaoheng didn't turn around. He put his hands in his trouser pockets and slowly walked towards the window.
After Bai Yueran left, Yin Shixiong sat on the sofa and played with his phone. Huo Shaoheng turned on his Bluetooth headset and ordered Zhao Liangze, "Is there surveillance on the lines at the military court?"
"… Yes, immediately." Zhao Liangze did not follow them. Instead, he waited in the central control room of the Special Operations Forces headquarters.
According to the rules, the Special Operations Forces were not allowed to intervene in domestic affairs. However, this time, those people had broken the rules and used the Special Operations Forces as a tool to intervene in domestic affairs.
Of course, Huo Shaoheng, who had never been at a disadvantage, would not let go of this opportunity. He took the opportunity to intervene in domestic affairs.
He was extremely protective of his people. Whoever wanted to hurt his people, he would definitely return the favor a hundred times or a thousand times over, no matter who you were, no matter where you were, and no matter what position you were in.
Perhaps it was because Huo Shaoheng's presence was too strong, or perhaps the other party was too cautious, but as soon as he called Judge Liao, he discovered that someone was monitoring him. The phone only rang once, and the other party immediately hung up. Zhao Liangze didn't even have time to track down the caller.
Judge Liao waited for two hours, but there were no new instructions from his superiors. He was frightened by Huo Shaoheng's words, so he finally picked up the pen and signed the death sentence.
It was three in the morning when Huo Shaoheng received Ye Zitan's death sentence.
…
It took Gu Nianzhi nearly two hours to complete the list of her assets.
She looked expressionlessly at the page of records in front of her and sighed softly.
No wonder people always wanted to separate them. They were indeed not suitable for each other.
So many things, an astronomical amount of wealth, had never been hers in the first place.
In the past, she had thought that she would definitely marry Huo Shaoheng. When the time came, they would be one. Huo Shaoheng's things would be hers, and her things would also be Huo Shaoheng's. Therefore, she had accepted it without any psychological pressure.
But now that Gu Nianzhi thought about it, in the eyes of others, or even in Huo Shaoheng's own heart, they all thought that she was born to depend on him. So she didn't have a particularly important place in his heart, right?
Important missions and comrades were ranked ahead of her. She accepted it all and didn't want to compete with Huo Shaoheng for these rankings.
She was already mentally prepared. She knew that in order to be with Huo Shaoheng, she had to accept his military side. Those were his career decisions. Otherwise, he wouldn't be the person she loved.
But who the hell was the Prime Minister's daughter?
Bringing the Prime Minister's daughter back home was also a secret mission?!
You must be kidding me!
Now even some random Tom, Dick, and Harry were ranked ahead of her. Not only could Gu Nianzhi not tolerate it, but she also flipped the table.
She let go of her prejudices and thought about it. She felt that she really was at odds with the Prime Minister's daughter.
Whether it was the former Prime Minister's daughter, Dou Qingyan, or the new Prime Minister's daughter, Tan Guiren …
All of her love rivals were pampered and came from prestigious families. She was the only one who had no background and was like duckweed.
Gu Nianzhi pouted and brushed the two of them out of her mind.
If it was in the past, she would have complained that these two were so well-off. Why did they have to compete with her for Huo Shao …
Now, she blushed just thinking about it.
Everyone wanted good things. Why was it that only you could have it and not others?
She couldn't compete with them, so she had to accept her loss.
She couldn't do something like pestering them anymore.
Gu Nianzhi rubbed her forehead with some melancholy. Thinking about her past self, it felt like a dream.
She looked down at the property list on the iPad and remembered that the keys and documents for the real estate were all in Huo Shaoheng's official residence.
The deposit receipts, tidying up, and investment accounts were all in Huo Shaoheng's official residence.
Most of her clothes, shoes, and bags were also in Huo Shaoheng's official residence.
So why did she make a list?
She could just cut it in half and not go to Huo Shaoheng's official residence.
Anyway, none of the things there belonged to her.
Gu Nianzhi smiled bitterly. She really was poor and proletarian. The only things that belonged to her were actually very few.
However, she still had to take away the clothes, shoes, bags, and skincare products. Many of them were brand new and unopened. Not only were they made according to her measurements, but she also didn't want to see others wearing her clothes and shoes, carrying her bags, and applying her cream …
She was such a petty person. She would seek revenge for the smallest grievance.
However, according to the market price, these clothes, shoes, and bags were worth the price of a two-bedroom apartment on the Fifth Ring Road in the Imperial Capital.
Gu Nianzhi went to check her bank account.
She had a special bank account to save her salary and school subsidies. The money in it was all earned by herself, not from Huo Shao.
Because she didn't usually use money or used her card directly, and Huo Shao was the one who paid the bills, she didn't know how much money she had in this account.
Now that she looked at it, yes, although it wasn't enough to buy a two-bedroom apartment, it was more than enough for a down payment.
She planned to look for a house when she returned to school. It would be best if she bought a ready house so she could move in immediately.
After taking care of everything, Gu Nianzhi sent the list to her school email, then logged out of her email account from Chen Lie's iPad to erase all traces of her login. She washed her face and went to wake Chen Lie up.
Chen Lie slept on the table for a while and was still a bit uncomfortable when Gu Nianzhi woke him up.
He sat there blankly for a while and rubbed his eyes to wake up.
"What time is it?"
"Just 3: 30. It's still dark outside. "Gu Nianzhi looked out the window and asked Chen Lie," Brother Chen, how did I get here? I remember … I think I was on Professor He's plane. "
Chen Lie was speechless.
Gu Nianzhi raised her eyebrows and looked at Chen Lie inquiringly.
Chen Lie frowned and walked to the small cloakroom inside to change his clothes. He mumbled, "Huo Shao sent you here. Thanks to you, because you fainted and got injured on the plane, Huo Shao wanted me to treat you before he let me out of the detention center. "
Gu Nianzhi was speechless.
"Brother Chen, what do you mean? Why are you in the detention center? " Gu Nianzhi leaned against the door to talk to Chen Lie. She was still wearing the clothes she had changed into on He Zhichu's plane. It was a large, light gray pullover sweater and a pair of tight-fitting gray yoga pants. Her back was slender and her legs were straight and slender.
Because her clothes also looked like a hospital gown, Chen Lie hadn't changed her clothes after she had been sent to him. She had slept in them for the whole day.
Now that she was up, the clothes didn't have any shape to begin with and didn't appear wrinkled.
She pulled her hands back and tied her long, loose hair into a ponytail.
Chen Lie changed into a white suit and came out with several ties in one hand. He asked Gu Nianzhi, "Which one do you think is better?"
Gu Nianzhi pursed her lips and pushed Chen Lie inside. "Why are you wearing a white suit? Are you afraid people won't know you're going to see her one last time? "
"Don't you think I look better in white?" Chen Lie looked in the mirror.
Gu Nianzhi was speechless.
"Brother Chen, I think you look best in dark gray." Gu Nianzhi helped Chen Lie rummage through the closet and found a dark gray shirt with light vertical stripes and smoky gray formal pants. She also found a pair of leather shoes for him to change out of his sneakers.
"You don't need the tie. Undo this button on your neck. Yes, roll up your sleeves." Gu Nianzhi helped Chen Lie dress up.
Chen Lie looked in the mirror again and realized he was really different. It seemed like he really did have the "aura."
He sighed and thought, what's the point of dressing up to be handsome now?
Even if he left a good impression on Ye Zitan, she wouldn't be able to escape death.
"Brother Chen, you still haven't told me how you ended up in the detention center." Gu Nianzhi continued to ask.
Chen Lie straightened his sleeves and didn't look up as he said, "Huo Shao was on a mission in New York and discovered a spy. He found out the spy was sending information from us, so he locked us up."
Gu Nianzhi was speechless.
"Does it also have something to do with Ye Zitan?" Gu Nianzhi couldn't help asking.
"Yeah. Otherwise, why would he lock me up?" Chen Lie finally recovered. Thinking about Ye Zitan didn't hurt as much anymore.
"Then Brother Chen, you should be fine now." Gu Nianzhi returned to the door and leaned against the door frame. "My condolences."
Chen Lie was speechless.
"Your tone is exactly like Huo Shao's. And you said he wasn't your boyfriend …" Chen Lie teased Gu Nianzhi.
Gu Nianzhi straightened her expression and said dryly, "I really wasn't. Brother Chen, I won't ask you about Ye Zitan in the future, and you also won't ask me about … Mr. Huo, okay? "
Huo Shaoheng, who had just stepped into Chen Lie's office, heard this and silently turned to leave.
