Chapter 1309 - It Is my House, Don’t be Shy
Hello, Mr. Major General
A huge sponser came out of the blue!
Gu Nianzhiâs jet-black eyes suddenly lit up.
âGranduncle, are you serious? ! Donât be shy with me. Iâm serious!â
Xie Shenxing laughed. âIâm already so old, so do I have to bluff in front of a little girl like you?
Besides, it wasnât a big deal. If he couldnât even support a little girl, and he wasnât worthy of the Xie surname, much less his status as the head of the Xie family.
Huo Shaoheng also said, âGranduncleâs words are of momentous weight. Donât worry. â
Gu Nianzhi nodded repeatedly and smiled at Xie Shenxing. âGranduncle, then Iâll take you at your words.â
The group chatted and laughed as they quickly arrived at the military headquartersâ compound.
General Ji and the others received the news as soon as Xie Shenxingâs rolls-Royce phantom limousine entered the gate.
âShaoheng, the grandfather of the Xie family is back in the country?â General Ji personally called Huo Shaoheng.
Huo Shaoheng nodded. âHeâs back in the country and was just picked up from the airport. Granduncle is staying at my house for the night, right in the military compound.â
âThatâs great!â General Ji laughed. âIs it convenient for me to visit your place right away?â
Huo Shaoheng thought about it for a moment and said, âIâm afraid we have some personal matters to attend to today. Iâll invite you and speaker long to have a tea party tomorrow when Granduncle returns to the West Mountain Villa.â
Gu Nianzhi heard that Huo Shaoheng had decided to treat her to a meal on his own initiative, so she quickly gave Huo Shaoheng a look for him to ask old master Xie first.
Huo Shaoheng saw her eye gesture, then rubbed her head, and hung up. He said to Xie Shenxing, âGranduncle, General Ji and Speaker Long want to visit you. Iâve pushed it to tomorrow, so Iâll go to your West Mountain villa and invite them to a tea party. What do you think? Is it appropriate?â
Xie shenxing waved his hand nonchalantly. âItâs up to you. I donât have the patience to care about these things.â
His main purpose for returning to the country was to support Huo Shaoheng and Gu Nianzhi, and to teach Huo Xuenong a lesson. As for other matters, he would see them as soon as he could. If he was too busy, he would decline.
Xie Shenxing didnât need to be so courteous with General Ji and Speaker Long.
..
The car drove into the driveway of the Huo familyâs headquarters and stopped under the Ginkgo tree in front of the door.
Huo Shaoheng got out of the car first, walked to the other side, and opened the car door for Xie Shenxing.
Xie Shenxing got out of the car and looked up at the mansion of Huo family.
Back then, he had sent off the only daughter of the Xie family firsthand, and later, he had personally picked up the only eldest daughter of the Xie family..
He was very familiar with this mansion!
Gu Nianzhi got out of the car and stood beside Huo Shaoheng with a serious expression on her face.
Xie Shenxing glanced at her and extended his arm towards her again. He smiled and said, âLittle Nianzhi, help me in. â
Gu Nianzhi walked over to hold Xie Shenxingâs arm and walked in.
Seeing that it was Huo Shaoheng, the guards at the entrance of the Huo familyâs mansion did not stop them. They saluted and greeted Huo Shaoheng.
Huo Shaoheng raised his hand. âYouâve worked hard. â
They passed through the iron gate and walked towards the small building in front, which had a dozen or so rooms.
It was already completely dark, and the umbrella-shaped LED street lamps on the path were gently illuminating the path beneath everyoneâs feet.
Huo Shaoheng asked Gu Nianzhi and Xie Shen to walk in front, while he followed behind them alone.
The two staff members in black uniforms carrying briefcases walked behind Huo Shaoheng.
The living room on the first floor of the Huo family mansion was brightly lit.
Huo Xuenong Sat in front of the sofa, leaning on his cane. He watched Luo Jialan with smile, who brought him a bowl of dessert.
Huo Guanchen sat on the sofa opposite Huo Xuenong with a frown. âWhy are you here again? Didnât you move away? â
Luo Jialan looked at Huo Xuenong with embarrassment. She slowly lowered her head and said softly, âUncle Huo, Iâm just worried about the his health. â
Huo Xuenong had been getting along very well with Luo Jialan these past two years.
Although Luo Jialan was very young, she was very good at taking care of people.
Huo Xuenong got along very well with her.
Therefore, after Luo Jialan moved out, she still came to the Huo family to see Huo Xuenong frequently in the name of visiting Huo Xuenong.
Huo Xuenong raised his eyelids and rolled his eyes at Huo Guanchen. âGo back to your room. Jialan just cared for me. Itâs none of your business! â
A man who totally depended on Huo family, and even came back after being chased out by him, actually said that âItâs none of your business!â.
Huo Guanchen really felt annoyed.
He stood up with angry.
He had already told the guards at the entrance of the courtyard not to let Luo Jialan in again.
However, as soon as Huo Xuenong interfered, the guards no longer stopped Luo Jialan.
Huo Guanchen had been working overtime these days, so he didnât think there was anything wrong with it.
He occasionally came back early today, but he found that Luo Jialan had come in their house again.
âFather, donât you remember what I said last time? â Huo Guanchenâs tone was very cold.
âYouâve said so many things, how am I supposed to know which one?â Huo Xuenong brushed him off, indicating that he didnât remember.
âOkay, let me tell you again...â Huo Guanchen crossed his arms. When he was about to say something, a group of people walked in from the hallway of the living room.
The two people in front of them were Gu Nianzhi and Xie shenxing.
Luo Jialan had been sitting next to Huo Xuenong with her head down the whole time. When she heard the sound of the door, she quickly looked up.
She was stunned with just one glance.
The old man standing next to Gu Nianzhi looked so familiar. Wasnât he the head of the Xie family, Xie Shenxing, whom she had once seen from afar? !
She had been in Europe with the Xie family for more than a year, but had not spoken to Xie Shenxing once.
She hadnât expected Gu Nianzhi to be arm in arm and stand so intimately next to the head of the Xie family.
She was indeed a shameless bitch.
Luo Jialan cursed Gu Nianzhi inside for being so promiscuous, not even sparing such an old man...
Gu Nianzhi stood by Xie Shenxingâs side like a well-behaved quail, and appeared unsure of what to do.
Xie Shenxing patted the back of her hand. âDonât worry, itâll be fine.â
Luo Jialan was already rushing over with a smile on her face.
âOld Master Xie is here! Iâm honored to have you here.â
Xie Shenxing looked at her seriously and asked, âAre you the doctor or the nurse of the Huo family?â
Luo Jialan was caught off guard. â ... You donât remember me?â
âI asked if youâre the doctor or a nurse of the Huo family. Donât you understand Mandarin?â Xie Shenxing said this without an expression, but his tone was grave and a little overbearing. Gu Nianzhi couldnât help cowering.
Luo Jialan was even more shocked. She was in a confrontational position with Xie Shenxing. She was so scared that she was about to throw up...
â ... No... No, Iâm neither the doctor or the nurse for the Huo family. â Luo Jialan stammered. âWhy didnât you tell us you were coming? We wouldâve gone to the airport to pick you up.â
âYouâre neither a doctor nor a nurse, so what are you doing at the Huo familyâs house in the middle of the night? â Xie Shenxing wouldnât let her off the hook. âAre you a member of the Huo family?â
Luo Jialan: â ... I used to be, but Iâm not anymore. But I grew up here and have lived here for more than 20 years. This place is just like my home.â
âitâs your home just because youâve been living here for a long time? Even my children wouldnât dare to say that.â
Xie Shenxing snorted and led Gu Nianzhi around Luo Jialan to the center of the living room.
When Huo Xuenong and Huo Guanchen saw that Xie Shenxing had come, they stood up in shock and were speechless.
