Hello, Mr. Major General

Chapter 1601 - : Excel the Predecessor



Chapter 1601: Excel the Predecessor

Gu Nianzhi endured the strange feeling in her heart and swept away all the San Xian fried rice.

After eating, she was so full that she couldn’t eat anything else. She was then sitting comfortably by Lu Jin’s side.

Lu Jin quickly prepared hawthorn juice, which helped digestion, for her to drink. He asked in surprise, “What’s so good about this simple San Xian fried rice?”

He then turned to give Lu Yuan a thumbs up. “Boss Lu, you’re amazing! You can cook this kind of simple home-cooked food to perfection. Your culinary skills have reached perfection!”

Lu Yuan was also a little surprised that Gu Nianzhi liked this fried rice so much.

He was a very cautious person. On the surface, he appeared to be open-minded, friendly, and had excellent diplomacy skills. However, perhaps due to his professional habits, only a few people who were very familiar with him knew that Lu Yuan’s mind was full of twists and turn. Sometimes, even he himself could not tell what he was thinking.

“Nianzhi, you like San Xian fried rice so much? Have you eaten it before?” He looked at Gu Nianzhi without batting an eyelid, he scooped up a bowl of braised squab and placed it in front of her. “After digestion, drink a bowl. I stewed it in an electric pressure cooker for three hours, both the flax seeds and the squab have dissolved into the soup.”

Gu Nianzhi rubbed her stomach and said weakly, “No, my stomach can’t take it anymore.”

She narrowed her eyes and smiled, she said, “I’ve never eaten such delicious San Xian fried rice, really! I almost swallowed my tongue. The braised porcini with white sauce over there is very fresh and tastes very good, but still it can’t compare to your San Xian fried rice.”

She then moved forward and said with a smile, “Director Lu, why are you doing internet security? It’s a complete waste of your talent! You should open a restaurant, a chain of restaurants, and globalize the Chinese cuisine!”

“That won’t do,” Lu Jin retorted with a straight face. “Boss Lu’s food is not something that ordinary people can eat. What’s the point of opening a restaurant? Our boss Lu hasn’t even gotten married yet. How can he find a wife if he becomes a professional chef?”

Gu Nianzhi giggled and clutched her stomach as she cried, “Oh no! I can’t laugh… my stomach hurts…”

Lu Yuan rolled his eyes at Lu Jin and said resentfully, “You’re right. I won’t cook for you anymore, otherwise I can’t find a wife.”

“Hahahaha… it’ll be fine if you cook for me and Nianzhi… hahahaha…”

Lu Jin was in a particularly good mood, so he put on a show all by himself.

Lu Yuan sat quietly under the light and ate his meal slowly. He did not speak again.

Gu Nianzhi had some thoughts in her mind. She looked at Lu Yuan again and noticed something that she had not noticed before.

It was obvious how terrifying one’s preconceived impression was.

Gu Nianzhi knew that Lu Yuan was a cautious person, so she did not stare at him blankly. She only occasionally shifted her gaze from Lu Jin to Lu Yuan when she stood up and walked around the dining room to digest her food.

She had done it very discreetly, and Lu Jin had been interrupting her from the side, disrupting Lu Yuan’s attention. Thus, throughout the meal, Lu Yuan actually did not notice that Gu Nianzhi was secretly observing him.

After the meal, Lu Jin was urged by Lu Yuan to clean the dishes and the kitchen.

Soon, the sound of the dishwasher washing dishes was heard from the kitchen. Lu Yuan held a cup of pu’er tea, went to the living room with Gu Nianzhi for a chat.

“At the end, what was the verdict of the case?” Lu Yuan left early and did not hear the final verdict.

Gu Nianzhi was sitting cross-legged on the sofa with one hand resting on her chin. She smiled and said, “The trial isn’t over yet. Wen Dayou and Liang Meili were definitely guilty and would be sentenced. Wen Shouyi was very cunning and managed to escape. She could be released on bail for the time being. There was also Qin Yaoguang and her lab. The court wanted to call them to testify in court, but their security level was different. They still needed to go through military procedures. Who knows how long it will take.”

Lu Yuan was surprised. “Wen Shouyi is fine?”

“Yes, she’s a lawyer after all. You know she’s definitely not innocent, but the law can’t convict her.” Gu Nianzhi said quietly, “You see, no matter how hard I tried to induce her in court, she refused to tell me who the man and the little girl that she saw were. She gritted her teeth and said she only saw those two people and didn’t know who they were.”

Lu Yuan thought for a moment and said, “The mastermind behind the scene is quite well-organized. It looks like they really prepared a man and a little girl to get into the car at the corner of the street.”

“That’s for sure.” Gu Nianzhi leaned back on the sofa, her two arms propped on the back of the sofa, her bright eyes darting around. “Don’t forget, there are two other passerby witnesses. They saw it, too, and the facial features they described were very similar to Gu Xiangwen and the twelve-year-old me. So, these two doubles must have existed.”

“Wen Shouyi’s story could be said to have been guided by circumstances at that time. However, even if she really saw it. she didn’t lie. Moreover, she also said that she didn’t know who they were, so there was no legal misdirection or framing. Even if the two doubles were found, she would still be innocent.”

Gu Nianzhi spread her hands with a look of pity on her face. “This person is indeed very cunning, and she always leaves a way out for herself. But she’s too ruthless. In order to get away with it, she even threw her parents into the pit.”

Lu Yuan nodded and comforted her gently. “A person who is unjust is doomed to destruction. People like her won’t end well.”

Lu Jin cleaned up the kitchen, washed his hands, and walked over to sit by Gu Nianzhi’s side. He pouted at Lu Yuan and said, “Boss Lu, don’t you know how to speak human language? What do you mean by a person who is unjust is doomed to destruction? It’s obvious that a slut will be punished by the heavens!”

Lu Yuan: “…”

Gu Nianzhi: “…”

She was most afraid of the sudden silence in the air.

She quickly wanted to say something, in an attempt to break the awkwardness in the living room caused by Lu Jin.

Lu Yuan looked at her and smiled, “It’s nothing, I’m used to it.”

Gu Nianzhi subconsciously looked at Lu Jin, but saw that he was still looking at her with a bright gaze. His face was full of nervousness, begging for praise. He had no idea that Lu Jin had almost killed the chat just now.

As a patient with terminal interpersonal disorder, one of Lu Jin’s best abilities was to kill conversation.

Gu Nianzhi suddenly felt a little sad.

She knew that Lu Jin had already tried his best to show his best side to her.

Being protective, she smiled at Lu Jin and gave him a thumbs up. “Daddy, you are always very sharp when you talk. You are so great!”

Lu Jin was instantly elated. He said cheerfully, “No, no, no. Nianzhi, you’re the one who knows how to talk. I learned everything from you!”

“You were really dazzling in court! Back then, even Lawyer Qin wasn’t as eloquent as you were at your age! You really excelled the predecessor!”

Gu Nianzhi covered her mouth and laughed. She suddenly felt that something wasn’t right.

Excelled the predecessor?!

Could this be used between her and Qin Suwen?!

Gu Nianzhi’s lips twitched. “Dad, I excelled? If Young Master He hears this, he will talk to you! Sometimes, when you talk, you have to talk artistically. You can’t use words carelessly…”

Lu Jin was stunned. He scratched his head and froze for a moment, but quickly came back to his senses, he laughed and said, “I was not wrong. Back then, Lawyer Qin personally took care of you and raised you. Even though it was only for two years, tsk tsk, if she could have raised you until now, how amazing you would have been!”

Gu Nianzhi seemed to remember He Zhichu saying the same thing. She thought about it and felt relieved. She leaned back on the sofa and looked at the large curved television screen on the opposite wall, she said calmly, “That’s a pity. Lawyer Qin is such a great person. Oh yes, I haven’t watched the trial video of Lawyer Qin that you have given to me.”

She stood up and went to her room to get her laptop. She was going to connect the curved television on the wall to watch the video.

Lu Jin took the remote control and turned on the television first, waiting for Gu Nianzhi to connect the laptop.

He turned on the news channel, which was the evening international news.

On the television, the dignified and beautiful female anchor reported sweetly,”… the head of the Moscow Municipal Party Committee of the Soviet Capital, Yeltsin, and the chairman of the Soviet Youth Affairs Standing Committee, Gorbachev, are currently on a visit to the United States. They are expected to travel from the west coast to Washington, the capital of the East Coast, tomorrow to meet with the president of the United States.”

Gu Nianzhi’s hand paused.

Yeltsin and Gorbachev?

These two were famous figures in the opposite world.

It was them who had worked together to destroy the Soviet Union, one of the superpowers, and split it into more than a dozen countries, leaving only Russia to struggle on its last legs.

She had not expected that in this world, the Soviet Union had not been divided, and that they were not only alive, but also active in the Soviet political arena.

Gu Nianzhi shook her head and felt that she was overthinking.

The strong man, Putin, was already in power, how could it be up to these two to overturn the situation?

She snorted disdainfully and connected the data cable to the video of Qin Suwen’s trial.

Late at night, in front of the detention center of the Imperial Capital Prison, a few dim street lamps stood in the cold winter night.

Wen Dayou and Liang Meili had just been sent here in the evening to await sentencing.

Two prison guards in long military uniforms stood guard at the entrance with their guns loaded.

Although this was only the prison’s detention center, the surrounding walls were electrified. Not only were there electric fences to block them, but there were also surveillance cameras everywhere.

Not far away, there were snipers and observers on standby 24 hours a day on the tower. They would kill anyone who dared to escape or break out of the prison.

It was because this detention center was in the capital, the security was very tight.

The streets were very quiet and there were not many pedestrians. Occasionally, a few stray dogs would stumble over and sniff around with a few tin cans under their noses.

The two prison guards on duty did not care. These stray dogs could be seen every day here, so it was not a particularly novel thing.

The clanking sound of metal cans was very obvious in the night sky.

One of the guards frowned and planned to chase the dogs away.

He held his gun and left his post. He trotted to the few stray dogs and tried to chase them away with the butt of his gun.

However, just as he got close, an unknown gas suddenly came out of the tin can that the stray dog had pushed over.

The prison guard knew that it was bad just by smelling it, but he didn’t have time to hold his breath. Soon, his limbs went numb and he fell limply to the ground.

The other prison guard saw this and quickly ran over to pull him up.

As soon as he came over, he also smelled the slightly irritating gas and immediately fell limply to the ground.

The moment they left the detention center, three men in black clothes and hoods rushed out. They used the keys that they had prepared beforehand to open the detention center’s door and burrowed into the detention center.

At the same time, He Zhichu, who had been waiting for the news, received a call. “Master He, the fish are in the net.”

“I’ll be right there. Keep an eye on them.” He Zhichu stretched out his arms, put on a heavy military coat with bulletproof equipment, and pulled open the door to go out.
