It was Huo Shaoheng's voice.
Gu Nianzhi let out a long sigh and hugged the baseball bat as she sat down against the wall.
She wasn't being pretentious, but she was too nervous just now. She thought that Ishihara was so powerful that even a thief could be used …
There were also many cases of burglary and murder. As a single woman living here, she was most afraid of this kind of thing.
Huo Shaoheng probably understood what she was thinking, so he immediately told her his name when he opened the door.
Gu Nianzhi raised her voice. "Huo Shao? What are you doing here so late? "
Huo Shaoheng pressed the switch on the wall to turn on the living room lights.
The recessed ceiling lamp lit up the dark living room as if it was daytime.
Gu Nianzhi, who was sitting against the wall in her bedroom, rubbed her eyes.
Letting go of his arm, a pair of long legs appeared in front of him.
Huo Shaoheng, who was still wearing his military uniform coat, stood in front of her and looked down at her.
His expression was the same as usual. It was warm yet distant, calm yet dignified. He looked at Gu Nianzhi quietly.
However, Gu Nianzhi could sense his anger from his body.
He couldn't help but hold the baseball bat tighter.
Huo Shaoheng stared at Gu Nianzhi for a while and extended his hand helplessly. "Why are you sitting on the ground? Get up. "
Gu Nianzhi looked closely at his hand. His palm was slightly wide, and there was a thin callus on his palm. There was also a faint smell of gunpowder on his hand. It was the smell of bullets.
His fingers were slender and strong. She could not see the joints, but she could see that his fingers were very straight. There were no fingernails, and his fingertips were trimmed neatly. When he extended his fingers to her, it was as if he could give her the whole world …
Gu Nianzhi didn't want to hold his hand to stand up, but for some strange reason, she was bewitched by his perfect hand shape and placed her little hand on it.
Huo Shaoheng held her hand tightly, his heart fluttering.
Her little hands were as soft as silk, and there was a sense of toughness in them.
Such a soft pair of small hands should be properly stored and safeguarded, so that she would not be exposed to the elements.
However, this thought only flashed through his mind for a moment before he discarded it.
Gu Nianzhi wasn't the kind of helpless little girl who only knew how to hide behind him and tremble.
He would not break her wings that wanted to fly.
However, it wanted to fly away from his control before its wings had fully grown. That was just wishful thinking.
Huo Shaoheng calmly pulled Gu Nianzhi up from the ground and pulled her forward.
Gu Nianzhi couldn't stand still and hugged the baseball bat as she fell into Huo Shaoheng's arms.
Huo Shaoheng wrapped his arms around her and smiled. "Darling, you don't have to be so passionate."
Gu Nianzhi, "…"
Fortunately, the baseball bat was between them. Otherwise, Gu Nianzhi felt that she really wouldn't be able to explain herself.
She pressed the baseball bat against Huo Shaoheng's chest and slowly pushed him away. She looked at Huo Shaoheng with a half-smile. "Huo Shao, what brings you here so late at night?"
Huo Shaoheng's smile faded, and his expression darkened. "I should be the one asking you that. What exactly do you want?"
She suddenly stopped living in the school dormitory and returned to her apartment in the Hepingli District as a day student.
She didn't like to drive the Ferrari before because it was too flashy.
But now, he drove it to and from school every day.
All of this indicated that something was amiss.
Huo Shaoheng understood Gu Nianzhi very well. He also knew that she wasn't a rash person who changed her mind abruptly.
She always had her reasons for everything she did. Although Huo Shaoheng thought that some of her reasons were too childish, he usually didn't comment on them.
Gu Nianzhi pursed her lips. In the half-dark bedroom, she and Huo Shaoheng were half in the darkness and half in the light.
Huo Shaoheng's back was to the light, so Gu Nianzhi couldn't see the expression on his face clearly. She only saw that his eyes were very bright. They were like stars guiding the way in the darkness, illuminating her path forward.
She knew that Huo Shaoheng could see her facial expression clearly, so she was very cautious and didn't let herself reveal any strange expressions.
She couldn't let Huo Shaoheng know what she wanted to do.
If he knew, he might take the risk of making a mistake to deal with Ishihara Taro.
Gu Nianzhi absolutely didn't want Huo Shaoheng to fall into any passive situation because of her.
This man was protecting her, and she was also silently protecting this man.
Perhaps she didn't dare to love him again, but she couldn't not protect him.
Ishihara Taro was too cunning.
Even with Gu Nianzhi's knowledge of the law, she couldn't find any law that could openly convict Ishihara Taro.
Even if he was caught throwing the coin, even if she could prove that Ishihara Taro threw the coin and caused the subsequent series of events, the court wouldn't be able to convict him.
Because the connection was too weak, it was almost impossible to determine that there was "criminal evidence."
Under such circumstances, she couldn't drag Huo Shaoheng into this.
The people in the system couldn't do what she was about to do, not even a little bit.
Huo Shaoheng looked down at Gu Nianzhi. He wasn't surprised to see the stubborn expression on her face that he was very familiar with.
It was just like the year she started following him. She was only 12 years old, but she was so stubborn that it gave him a headache.
He told her many times to go back to her room to sleep at night, but he would always find her hugging her little blanket and sleeping in front of his room in the middle of the night.
He carried her back and often watched over her before falling asleep together.
Later, when she grew older, it wasn't appropriate for him to go to her bed to sleep with her. In the end, he could only move her room to the one opposite his and leave the door open when they slept at night.
Gu Nianzhi could only sleep peacefully when she could see the light in the room opposite her from the bed in her own room.
"Nianzhi, I know you are very smart and very brave, but I hope you understand that you can't just rely on bravery to do things." Huo Shaoheng pointed at his head. "You have to think carefully about the cause and effect."
"I've thought it through," Gu Nianzhi said instinctively.
Huo Shaoheng's expression immediately turned cold. "So you really are plotting something?"
Gu Nianzhi's lips twitched. How many times had this happened? This person was too cunning. He could easily get information out of her!
Gu Nianzhi turned her head away and didn't look at Huo Shaoheng.
Huo Shaoheng pulled her to the bed in the bedroom with a headache and lifted the blanket. "You're wearing too little. Go in first."
Gu Nianzhi placed the baseball bat on the side of the bed and took off her shoes. She climbed into bed and covered herself with the blanket.
Huo Shaoheng adjusted the blanket for her and sat by her bed to look at her. His deep voice echoed in the bedroom late at night. Gu Nianzhi's ears turned red from hearing it.
"Nianzhi, you're in a very dangerous situation."
Gu Nianzhi blinked and whispered, "I know. I can handle it."
No one understood her situation better than she did.
"You can really handle it?" Huo Shaoheng's voice became calm. "According to the news from Japan, they found out the inside story of Ishihara Baisan committing suicide."
Gu Nianzhi's eyes lit up and she asked eagerly, "What reason?!"
Huo Shaoheng said word by word, "Ishihara Baisan committed suicide because he was directly provoked by your father, Gu Xiangwen."
Gu Nianzhi was speechless.
"Little Japan's psychological endurance was too weak and he was jealous of people with talent. How can he blame my father?" Gu Nianzhi snorted disdainfully. "I don't believe it."
"Your father personally told Ishihara Baisan in front of many people in the Ishihara family, 'Useless! You think you're worthy of comparing progress with me?! '
"Just this one sentence made Ishihara Baisan feel so humiliated that he committed suicide. Nianzhi, do you know what this means? "
Gu Nianzhi laughed and clapped. "This means that little Japan's magnetic field research went back 50 years! Good, that's my father for you! He scolded little Japan to death with just one sentence! I'm proud of him! "
Huo Shaoheng was slightly taken aback. He hadn't thought of this reason, but he immediately realized it when Gu Nianzhi said it. He couldn't help but be full of respect for Gu Xiangwen.
After a moment of silence, he said calmly, "Nianzhi, the Ishihara family will not let you off for killing your father."
Gu Nianzhi didn't expect Huo Shaoheng to be able to guess that the Ishihara family was the mastermind even though he didn't know about Ishihara Taro's relationship with Dollar.
Her whole body trembled, and she used all her strength to calm her racing heart. She laughed coldly and said, "Then come at me. Who's afraid of who?!"
