Hello, Mr. Major General

Chapter 1650 - Countdown



Chapter 1650: Countdown

“Me?” Huo Shaoheng shook his head slowly. “I’ve never tried to seduce anyone. I’m pursuing you.”

Gu Nianzhi’s smile faded and she pushed him away forcefully. She opened the car door and jumped out. She said in all seriousness, “Mr. Peter, if you keep touching me like this, I won’t be able to sit in your car.”

Huo Shaoheng sat in the car and looked down at her. He loved her dearly in his heart, but he still had to put on an expression of hurt and disappointment. He was silent for a long time, then said, “You don’t like me that much? You said that I look exactly like the person you like. Can’t you just treat me as his substitute?”

“Treating you as his substitute is humiliating him, humiliating you, and humiliating myself.”Gu Nianzhi didn’t know what Huo Shaoheng meant, but his words, even if it was just an act, made her very angry.

In his heart, was she such a shallow woman who only cared about looks?

… fine, her feelings for him were indeed related to his looks, but it was impossible for her to fall in love with him just because of his looks.

Since he didn’t understand this, she decided to stop trying to expose him.

Unless he was willing to admit who he really was in front of her, she wouldn’t be able to treat him any better.

“What’s so good about him? Why are you so loyal to him?” Huo Shaoheng smiled. “Besides, even if he’s nice, it’s useless if he’s not by your side.”

Gu Nianzhi rolled her eyes and said snappily, “I didn’t accept you not because you’re not nice, but because I still love him. There’s only room for two people in love. It’s too crowded to have one more person.”

“Oh? Then when you stop loving him, will you consider me?” Huo Shaoheng leaned forward and sniffed her hair.

This woman was really irresistible. He couldn’t resist her…

Gu Nianzhi’s lips twitched. “Then wait until I stop loving him.” She picked up her phone and started dialing expressionlessly.

“What are you doing?” Huo Shaoheng noticed it and snatched the phone from her.”… You want to take a taxi?”

“Yeah, how can I take a taxi with you when you’re like this? If your bestiality erupts and I can’t beat you, who am I going to cry to if I suffer?” Gu Nianzhi snatched her phone back with a straight face. “Don’t touch other people’s phones. You’re invading my privacy!”

Huo Shaoheng’s eyes flashed with an indescribable emotion.

It was not because of Gu Nianzhi’s steadfastness, but because of her clear mind and unwavering determination.

But he also knew very well that once someone like Gu Nianzhi was moved, she might really break up with him.

Because she is loyal to her own heart and her own feelings.

She didn’t accept other men because she still loved him.

When she didn’t love him, she had the right to choose a new man.

The sense of crisis in Huo Shaoheng’s heart became even more serious.

He stopped teasing her and reached out to open the car door. He calmly said, “Okay, you win. Get in the car.”

Gu Nianzhi’s hand rested on the handrail next to the car seat. Just as she was about to climb up, Huo Shaoheng had already wrapped his arms around her waist and hugged her between the car seat and his chest. He continued, “Before you give up on that person, I won’t go any further. But you have to promise me that I’ll be the first on your waiting list. Once you give up on your sweetheart, you have to consider me first.”

Gu Nianzhi glared at Huo Shaoheng angrily. Her clear eyes showed the reflection of him clearly.

She gritted her teeth and thought to herself, this Major General Huo is too much of a hoodlum. How could he say such things..

Giving up on him and considering the current him, isn’t it still him after all? !

He’s really not at a disadvantage at all. Was he that set on getting her?

Gu Nianzhi snorted and said with a frown, “No. If I give up on him, then I’ll definitely have to find a completely different person. No way would I find another person who looks exactly the same as my ex-boyfriend!”

Huo Shaoheng was stunned by the word “ex-boyfriend”and did not speak for a long time.

He quietly got into the car, started it, and drove all the way to the underground parking lot of the revolving restaurant on Sanhuan Road. He did not say another word.

Gu Nianzhi was secretly pleased with herself. She knew that she had finally made a comeback.

She got out of the car in a good mood. She glanced at the parking lot and walked towards the elevator.

The revolving restaurant was on the top two floors of the skyscraper.

The top floor was the most luxurious. Sitting there, one could see the entire imperial capital from 360 degrees.

The lower floor of the top floor was more common, and ordinary people could afford it.

Gu Nianzhi’s reservation was on the lower floor of the top floor.

But just as she walked out of the elevator, her phone rang. It was Luo Piaopiao calling.

Gu Nianzhi answered the call with a smile. “I’m already here. Where are you?”

Luo Piaopiao was also smiling. “I’m on the top floor of the revolving restaurant. That’s the top floor. Are you treating me to a meal on the top floor?”

Gu Nianzhi choked and laughed dryly. “Cousin Luo, don’t play with me. How can I afford to treat you? I’m at the bottom floor.”

“That won’t do. You have to come to the top floor, or I won’t eat!” Luo Piaopiao’s crisp laughter came from the phone. “Actually, it’s not as expensive as you think. Plus, the scenery here is great, and you can only eat once a year. At worst, I’ll treat you.”

Gu Nianzhi was fine with what she said.

It was just as Luo Piaopiao had said. It wasn’t that she couldn’t afford it, so why be stingy?

She walked in front and followed Huo Shaoheng to the upper floor of the revolving restaurant, which was also the top floor of this skyscraper.

The elevator showed the 36th floor.

It was indeed the top floor. There were very few people eating here.

Other than her and Huo Shaoheng, no one else came up.

Gu Nianzhi was a little surprised.

No matter how expensive the restaurant was, the imperial capital never lacked rich people.

Why was it only her and Huo Shaoheng walking in?

Something was wrong.

Huo Shaoheng obviously realized it as well. He immediately took a step forward to block Gu Nianzhi.

The oval-shaped revolving restaurant was surrounded by crystal clear glass windows. From here, one could see cotton candy-like clouds floating in the blue sky.

The restaurant spun slowly like a merry-go-round. Tableware and tea were placed neatly on the dining table. It seemed that there had been someone holding a feast here just a while ago, but now there was no one there.

Time seemed to freeze. Gu Nianzhi had a momentary misconception that she had walked into an abandoned set.

“Luo Piaopiao?”Gu Nianzhi walked out from behind Huo Shaoheng and stood beside him while calling out tentatively.

“Ha! Are you surprised?!” Luo Piaopiao’s voice suddenly came from the side of the hall.

Immediately after, men in suits and elegant ladies walked out from the side door of the hall.

Leading the way was Luo Piaopiao in a red chanel suit, and an old man with white hair and a ruddy face. He was dressed in a traditional Chinese suit with sables and fur lining.

Gu Nianzhi was no stranger to this old man. He was Qin Yaoguang’s father, Grandfather Qin.

A middle-aged man walked behind Grandfather Qin. Gu Nianzhi had seen him in court before. He seemed to be Grandfather Qin’s nephew.

This time, they brought their women with them.

Not long after, the entire restaurant was filled with people.

Luo Piaopiao held Old Master Qin’s arm and walked up to Gu Nianzhi with a smile on her face. She waved at her. “I told you there was a surprise, didn’t I? My Granduncle said he’d treat us to this meal. We’ve already booked this place today. Cousin Gu, come and sit!”

“You must be Nianzhi, right? I’m your first aunt. I’ve heard of your name before, but when I saw you today, I realized you’re even prettier than you are in your picture.”

“I’m your second aunt. You even ate at my house when you were young.”

“I’m your cousin…”

“I’m your cousin…”

“I’ve always wanted to see you, but your mother always said it wouldn’t be the right time. I didn’t expect to only see you now.”

The Qin family almost swarmed over and surrounded Gu Nianzhi, introducing themselves one by one.

Their smiles were sincere and warm, and they seemed to know how to behave better than Qin Yaoguang.

As the saying went, you don’t hit a smiling person, so Gu Nianzhi wouldn’t be so cold to everyone in the Qin family.

As she greeted these people, she took the opportunity to rub Luo Piaopiao’s head. She pulled off a few strands of hair and quietly rubbed them in her hand while saying, “Cousin Luo, you’re so unloyal. It’s such a big deal, so why didn’t you tell me beforehand?”

Luo Piaopiao smiled and said, “I usually don’t do such a good thing. It’s only because of you that I have so much face!”

“Please spare me. Please don’t give me such face. I can’t take it.”Gu Nianzhi smiled and rubbed her head again, successfully ruining her hairstyle.

Luo Piaopiao inadvertently saw her face in the mirror at the side of the hall. She was so angry that she stomped her feet. “Cousin Gu! Let go of me!”

She quickly said to Grandfather Qin, “Uncle, Grandpa, I need to go to the bathroom.”

She pointed at her hair, which had been messed up by Gu Nianzhi.

Gu Nianzhi took the opportunity to say, “I’ll go too. I’ll help Cousin Luo tidy up.”

Grandfather Qin laughed loudly. “Go, go, Go! You little girls are so naughty!”

Gu Nianzhi and Luo Piaopiao went to the bathroom. Grandfather Qin squinted at Huo Shaoheng and nodded. “Mr. Peter? We met once.”

It was at the He family’s Christmas party.

Huo Shaoheng’s face was cold as he said unhappily, “It was just supposed to be a meal between Miss Hu and Miss Luo. Why are there so many people here all of a sudden? Are all Huaxia people so untrustworthy?”

“Mr. Peter may have an oriental face, but you’re still a Soviet citizen.”Grandfather Qin sighed and said, “This is our kinship. We Huaxia value kinship the most. You don’t understand. However, since you’re here, you’re a guest. Come, sit down and have a drink with us!”

Huo Shaoheng stood at the door with a cold face and said, “I’ll go check on Miss Gu. Excuse me.” He walked to the bathroom.

Grandfather Qin was stunned for a moment and quickly said, “Mr. Peter? That’s the women’s bathroom. Why don’t you wait here?”

“It’s fine. I’ll wait at the door.” Huo Shaoheng waved his hand and strode towards the ladies’ room.

Grandfather Qin’s eyes flashed with disdain. He turned to his family and said, “Sit down, everyone. Let the waiter serve the dishes.”

They had reserved this floor and had ordered the dishes long ago.

In the ladies’ room, Gu Nianzhi was helping Luo Piaopiao with her hair. She took the opportunity to get even more of her hair.

She picked up the hair that had fallen off one by one and put it all into her little plastic bag when Luo Piaopiao wasn’t looking.

Luo Piaopiao looked at herself in the mirror and touched up her makeup. She said angrily, “Cousin Gu, I didn’t expect you to be so naughty!”

As the two of them were talking, Luo Piaopiao’s phone suddenly rang. She took out her phone from her small bag and swiped it open to answer the call.

No one spoke on the other end of the phone, but there was the sound of a mechanical countdown.

“Ten, nine, eight…”

Outside the bathroom, the cold-faced Huo Shaoheng leaned against the outer wall. The sound of a ticking clock suddenly came from the Bluetooth headset hidden in his ear.

The KGB was no stranger to this sound. It was no stranger to all the professional intelligence agents in the world who had carried out assassinations.

It was the sound of a remote-controlled bomb counting down!

Huo Shaoheng’s expression froze. He quickly turned around and kicked open the bathroom door. He pulled Gu Nianzhi, who had her back to him, into his arms. He turned around and dashed towards the door.

Boom!

A deafening boom came from behind him. An explosive heat wave came like a flame. The huge impact slammed Huo Shaoheng and Gu Nianzhi into the opposite wall!
