Hello, Mr. Major General

Chapter 1240 - Huge Gifts



Chapter 1240 Huge Gifts

“Zhichu! Zhichu! Wake up! Zhichu!”He Chengjian, who had always been imposing, dignified, and reserved, suddenly had tears in his eyes.

Watching his son collapse to the ground unconscious was a nightmare for every father that cared about his child.

He watched him like he had watched his mother collapse to the ground the same way that year..

If he had returned home earlier, if he had called him earlier, perhaps everything would have been different.

He Chengjian’s life experience could be could be made into a history textbook. He had persevered through every imaginable hardship.

He was strong-willed and resilient. He was iron-fisted and ruthless. Moreover, he was also shrewd and calculating. He always planned meticulously before he acted.

He rarely ever made a move. Once he made a move, he had to kill his opponent.

After all these years, everyone who knew him came to an understanding — if you weren’t prepared to die with him, then don’t make yourself an enemy of Old He.

But at that moment, seeing his son lying on the ground, he felt completely helpless.

All years of wielding tremendous power, he still couldn’t save his wife or son. It was such a joke.

He Chengjian clenched his jaw. He finally picked up another phone and found Gu Nianzhi’s number. He called her.

At this time, Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng were attending a banquet specially held for them by President Pushin.

In the Kremlin’s main hall, crystal chandeliers appeared crystal clear and gave off a soft glow.

The men and women were all dressed in formal evening gowns and holding wine glasses. They stood in groups of two or three in the main hall as they spoke.

In a corner of the hall, there was an orchestra band playing musical instruments, and a jazz singer singing in a low voice.

Gu Nianzhi didn’t have a chance to drink, so Huo Shaoheng gave her a glass of grape juice to fake as red wine to brush off those who came to toast.

After a while, Vladimir walked over and said to Huo Shaoheng, “Major General Huo, our president has invited you over to talk.”

Huo Shaoheng glanced at Gu Nianzhi. “You stay here and don’t wander around.”

“I know, you can go.” Gu Nianzhi nodded with a smile and winked at him as she raised the glass of grape juice.

Huo Shaoheng smiled. “Good girl.”

He patted her head and turned to leave.

Vladimir clicked his tongue and asked, “What were you guys talking about?”

Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng were speaking in Mandarin.

Gu Nianzhi swirled the glass of grape juice in her hand and said with a smile, “He told me to be obedient and not to do anything mischievous.”

“You know how to do mischievous things?” Vladimir snickered. He looked around and said in a low voice, “Little Dimi wants to talk to you. Can you come with me to the side hall over there?”

He then promised, “It’s not a shady place, it’s just the Side Hall with the curtains hanging over it. Little Dimi and his mother aren’t allowed to attend such an occasion.”

Gu Nianzhi immediatly felt sympathy for little Dimi, but Huo Shaoheng had instructed her not to wander around here.

Just as she was hesitating, from the corner of her eye, she saw that a corner of the side hall’s curtain had lifted up to reveal little Dimi’s rosy cheeked face. He beamed at her and waved at her desperately.

He was just too adorable.

Gu Nianzhi thought that since they were in the main hall anyway, if someone wanted to harm her, why would they have to do it now?

She couldn’t be too paranoid.

She nodded and said, “Vladimir, I trust you.” She then followed him to the side hall.

Vladimir suddenly turned around halfway and said with a blank expression, “Cereus, I’m not that trustworthy. Don’t trust others too easily.”

Gu Nianzhi: ” … ”

“But you can trust me right now. I’m not lying to you. ” Vladimir winked again, then laughed and soon returned to his old self.

Gu Nianzhi suddenly missed the middle-aged driver who always gave Vladimir a headache.

She said with a smile, “Then from now on, I’ll have to verify everything you say with the driver, and then I’ll have a good idea of whether or not I can trust you.”

No, no, no, no

Nice come back..

That subordinate of his is the bane of his existence.

He had kicked him out of the department several times already, but he went around and ended up right back in his department.

Then Vladimir resigned himself to his fate.

The driver was a big mouth that liked to blabber nonsense and overly dramatic, but he had no other shortcomings.

It was better than having someone who looked obedient but would suddenly stab you in the back.

Gu Nianzhi thought about this to herself. Hoping to add the middle-aged driver and Vladimir into a small group, she immediately took out her phone and opened Wechat.

In the end, she found that there was no internet signal at all, not even a cell phone signal.

Gu Nianzhi frowned and walked around Vladimir with her phone in her hand as she looked for a signal.

She was very confused.

Her phone was connected to the Nandou satellite communication system developed by the Huaxia Empire. How could she not get a signal?

Vladimir was speechless and said snappily, “Don’t even bother. All signals are blocked here, not to mention the wifi. If you want to make a call, you have to use a landline. ”

Gu Nianzhi pursed her lips and put her phone back into her pocket resentfully. “Do you guys have to be so cautious? Just install a wifi connection and you guys will know who uses the internet, okay ”

“That’s the rule. If there’s wifi at the banquet, everyone will look down at their phones. Who will be having conversations? ” Vladimir seemed to understand, but he moved his finger and admitted to Gu Nianzhi, “Actually, I want to use wifi too.”

Gu Nianzhi: ” … ”

She followed Vladimir to the side hall and lifted the curtain to enter. Sure enough, she saw little Dimi and his mother inside.

His mother was wearing a wine-red dress with a fishtail hem. Her body figure was extremely voluptuous, and she appeared as alluring as a ripe peach.

Gu Nianzhi was a woman, and her own figure was also quite impressive. However, she couldn’t help glancing at little Dimi’s mother a few more times.

Little Dimi’s mother secretly enjoyed Gu Nianzhi’s envious gaze. She smiled and said in broken English, “Your name is Cereus, right? I haven’t specifically thanked you yet.”

Gu Nianzhi quickly said, “It was nothing. You’re welcome.”

“It wasn’t nothing.” Little Dimi’s mother said seriously, “You saved my little Dimi by risking your own life. Don’t you know who those two people were? They could have killed you any second.”

Gu Nianzhi didn’t know the true identities of those two people while she was rescuing him.

She thought they were “human traffickers” ..

However, she didn’t want to explain any further. She smiled and said, “All is well as long as little Dimi is fine.”

When little Dimi heard his name mentioned, he smiled as he looked up at her. He tugged at the hem of her skirt.

Gu Nianzhi: ” … ”

She bent down and spoke slowly in English, “Little Dimi, do you have something to say?”

Little Dimi mumbled a few words in Russian before running behind the couch. He took out a small puppy and handed it to Gu Nianzhi from his hands.

Vladimir translated for him, “Little Dimi said thank you for rescuing him. He wants to give you this little Cogi.” He added, “It’s his family’s Big Kogi’s newborn puppy. It’s only a week old.”

Gu Nianzhi’s eyes widened before Vladimir even translated.

Corgi!

It was the famous Corgi. Even its five-centimeter-long short legs were so adorable.

It had a big head, a chubby little body, and a black and white color like a panda. With its four short legs, it could easily cosplay as a panda cub with dark circles under its eyes.

Gu Nianzhi received it endearingly and said, “Thank you! Thank you, little Dimi! I like it very much!”

She held the puppy in her arms and rubbed her face against its soft fur. Her affection for it was obvious.

Little Dimi smiled when he saw how much Gu Nianzhi liked the present he had given her.

He tugged at the hem of Gu Nianzhi’s skirt and mumbled some words to her in Russian.

Vladimir stood on the side as he translated to her

So he was telling Gu Nianzhi how to raise the Corgi..

Gu Nianzhi listened very carefully and would even ask some questions from time to time.

The two of them chatted animatedly. Little Dimi grew happier and happier. In the end, he even hugged Gu Nianzhi before his mother led him away.

They couldn’t stay there for long.

As she watched the mother and son leave together, Gu Nianzhi suddenly asked Vladimir, ” … was tonight’s banquet held simply to give little Dimi a chance to give the Corgi to me?”

Vladimir raised his eyebrows. “Cereus, you’re too smart. If you keep getting smarter, I think I’ll feel reluctant to let you leave us.”

“Hehe, sure. As long as you give me gifts every day, I’ll stay here forever.” Gu Nianzhi’s mind raced, and she pretended that she wanted to stay.

Vladimir was actually just joking.

Upon seeing that Gu Nianzhi was so tactfully understanding, he smiled and didn’t pursue the matter any further.

At that moment, his walkie-talkie rang. Someone had called him over to deal with an emergency.

He was concerned about Gu Nianzhi, so he called over the middle-aged driver to accompany her specifically.

Gu Nianzhi: ” … ”

After Vladimir left, Gu Nianzhi asked the middle-aged driver in a somewhat troubled manner, “…Where were you just now? I wanted to talk to you, but I couldn’t find you anywhere.”

The middle-aged driver held a bottle of vodka and a piece of bread smeared with caviar in his hand. He said cheerfully, “I was on duty outside. Did you miss me, my Cereus?”

“Yes, I missed you. I missed your gift. ” Gu Nianzhi said with a smile as she caressed the little Corgi in her arms.

The middle-aged driver grimaced. “Talking about gifts will hurt our relations. Let’s talk about relations.

“What do you mean talking about gifts will hurt our relations, I’m not falling for your tricks.” Gu Nianzhi giggled and followed up with the chauffeur.

The two of them chatted and sat down in the side hall.

The chauffeur looked at the puppy in her arms and sized it up for a while before saying, “It’s a famous breed. Take good care of it.”

Gu Nianzhi didn’t know what breed the puppy was, but the little Corgi was so adorable that she was willing to take good care of it whether it was a famous breed or not.

The puppy in her arms stayed quiet for a while before it began to bark softly. The furry paws on its short legs scratched Gu Nianzhi’s palm a few times before it looked up at her and barked softly again.

“What’s wrong?” Gu Nianzhi cocked her head as she stared at the little Corgi. “What do you want?”

“It’s hungry.” The middle-aged driver took a bite of the caviar bread. “There’s milk over there. I’ll go get it a few bottles of goat’s milk.”

Gu Nianzhi: ” … ”

It wasn’t long after middle-aged driver had left.

Gu Nianzhi’s phone started to vibrate.

Her heart skipped a beat.

There was a call coming in.

Because she was attending the banquet, she had set her phone on vibrate so it wouldn’t be rude if her phone suddenly rang.

But she clearly remembered that her phone had no signal at all moments before. It was like being on a plane 10,000 meters in the air.

And Vladimir had also said that all signals were blocked here.

How was she receiving a call now?

Gu Nianzhi quickly pulled out her phone and swiped it open. It was as unfamiliar number.

She stared at it for a while, but picked up the call nonetheless.

“Hello?”

The person on the other end paused for a moment, then standard dialect mandarin sounded from the phone.

“Excuse me, are you Gu Nianzhi?”

His voice sounded deep and dignified. He also sounded a little old.

Gu Nianzhi immediately grew serious, and quickly asked, “Yes, who is this?”

The person quickly replied, “I’m He Zhichu’s father. I need your help with an emergency.”

Gu Nianzhi widened her eyes in surprise. “Who are you?!”

Professor He’s father?!

“You can turn on the video camera if you don’t believe me.” The man on the other side seemed impatient. “I don’t have time to waste with you. He Zhichu has suddenly fallen ill and is in critical condition. Can you help save him this time?”

Gu Nianzhi stood up abruptly. “What did you say? Professor He has fallen ill? In critical condition? Where is he?!”
