Chapter 1560 - Someone With Professional Training Is Indeed Different

Lu Yuan, who had followed the the Ace of the Far East in, narrowed his eyes. His gaze lingered on the name “Huo Shaoheng” written by Gu Nianzhi for a while, then on Vice Consul Peter. His gaze was a little cold.

Gu Nianzhi composed herself and reached out to erase the name she had scribbled. Without turning her head, she said,”... Well, you owe me your life. Do you think I would miss you?”

“Don’t worry. From the moment you took the bullet for me, my life is yours.”The The Ace of the Far East stood beside her with his head slightly lowered. His dark eyes were unfathomable, but his tone was so affectionate that Gu Nianzhi’s ears turned red.

This guy was probably a postdoctoral student when it came to flirting.

He knew exactly how to speak, how to be flirtatious, and what tone of voice to use to convey his feelings in the most complete way.

He had really practiced this before.

Gu Nianzhi wasn’t beguiled. She was just lamenting how impressive a KGB agent was..

She turned around and smiled at the Ace of the Far East. “Mr. Peter, what don’t you know?”

“... What do you mean?”The Ace of the Far East raised an eyebrow. For the first time, he realized that he couldn’t keep up with Gu Nianzhi’s pace.

“Look, you know how to pick up girls, Gamble, swim, fly a plane, shoot a gun, care for the injured, even be an expert in infant care, and now you can even flirt with ease. “Since you’re so capable, how can others survive?” Gu Nianzhi pointed at him with her finger in the air. “But you don’t have to display your abilities in front of me. It’s useless, so don’t waste your time.”

The Ace of the Far East wasn’t discouraged at all. A faint smile appeared on his face. “Thank you for your encouragement. I’ll continue working hard.”

Gu Nianzhi: “...”

People who were thick-skinned were really scary. People who were good-looking were even more so when they were thick-skinned.

“I’m not complimenting you.” Gu Nianzhi frowned. “What are you doing here? Didn’t I ask you to do my security work?”

Gu Nianzhi hadn’t seen the Ace of the Far East for more than a month, so she thought he had given up. She was just about to breathe a sigh of relief when he came knocking on her door again...

“I did it. It’s all thanks to me that no one has bothered you for so long.” The Ace of the Far East observed her expression carefully. From her red lips, white teeth, delicate eyebrows, and eyes as pure as autumn water, apart from her slightly pale face, he saw that she was basically like a normal person. “How about you? Are you feeling better? Why don’t you go lie down on the bed?”

“Thanks to you, I’m much better.” Gu Nianzhi waved her arm and said calmly, “Okay, you can go now.”

The Ace of the Far East bared his teeth at her. “Seeing that you’re recovering so quickly, I’ll sell you some information.”

Gu Nianzhi pursed her lips and turned to leave.”... No, I don’t have money.”

“... I’m used to saying it that way. Okay, I’ll give you some information.” The Ace of the Far East put his hands in his trouser pockets and said behind her, “It’s about your mother, Qin Yaoguang.”

Gu Nianzhi didn’t stop. She quickly walked back to her guest room and slammed the door shut.

The Ace of the Far East looked at the tightly shut door in confusion and said, “... Doesn’t she want to teach that woman who doesn’t deserve to be a mother a lesson?”

“That’s none of your business.” Lu Yuan said casually behind him, “Okay, we’re going to make lunch. Vice Consul Peter, shouldn’t you go back too?”

A little surprised, the Ace of the Far East turned to look at him. “You’re not going to invite me to eat?”

“Why should we invite you to eat?” Lu Yuan’s face darkened. “I’m already tired of cooking for three people every day. Do I have to cook for one more person? If you want to stay, you can do it!”

“I’m sorry, I don’t know how to cook.” The Ace of the Far East spread out his hands. “Alright, it seems that I’m not welcome. I’ll be leaving then.”

He turned around and walked towards the door. Just as he was about to reach the door, he suddenly turned around and shouted, “Qin Zhining is about to be shot. Miss Gu, I said I would definitely avenge you!”

Although Gu Nianzhi had entered her guest room, she was still paying attention to the movements outside.

Gu Nianzhi immediately heard the Ace of the Far East’s shout. She quickly opened the door and asked in surprise, “Why is Qin Zhining going to be shot?”

She quickly came back to her senses. “Was it because of me? !”

The Ace of the Far East shook his head. “Of course not.”

He pointed at himself. “It was because of me. He failed his mission and didn’t hit me. Instead, he shot someone else.”

As a special forces soldier, Qin Zhining’s mistake this time could indeed be punishable by death.

Gu Nianzhi was momentarily stunned.

Qin Zhining had shot her. It could be said that she had set him up from the beginning to the end.

She didn’t want to live anymore, so she used Qin zhining as a gun against herself.

In a sense, Qin Zhining was really innocent.

If he was shot to death, he would be the victim of her and He Chengjian’s battle.

Gu Nianzhi thought quickly, but wasn’t sure what she should do.

The Ace of the Far East said slowly, “... Actually, He Chengjian doesn’t have to kill him, but your mother, Qin Yaoguang, insisted that he shot her daughter. She wants him to pay with his life and must shoot him.”

Gu Nianzhi’s eyes widened, and her limpid eyes sparkled. “What? It has to do with Qin Yaoguang again? !”

“... The execution is on Christmas Eve.” The Ace of the Far East looked at his watch. “From now, Mr. Qin Zhining can live for another 23 hours.”

“He’s already set a time? !” Gu Nianzhi was even more surprised. “What about Young Master He? He’s just going to watch as Qin Zhining is executed? !”

If he really wanted someone to take responsibility, his father, He Chengjian, should have been executed!

Gu Nianzhi’s face turned red with anger.

“Young Master He is in a dilemma.” The Ace of the Far East did seem to have done a lot of work over the past month, and had dug up all the information, ” Qin Zhining was the one who fired the shot, and you were the one who was injured. Young Master He probably already had a problem with Qin Zhining. Besides, he can’t let his father be shot, can he?”

Gu Nianzhi froze.

The Ace of the Far East’s words were so direct.

Gu Nianzhi pursed her lips and rubbed her temples out of habit. She said coldly, “Thank you for your information. I need to think about it. You can go first.”

The Ace of the Far East made a helpless gesture. “Okay, since you insist, I’ll go.”

He added, “I’ll spend Christmas Eve with you tomorrow.”

“I don’t celebrate Christmas.” Gu Nianzhi rejected him firmly. “I’m from the Huaxia Empire, and these are foreign holidays.”

In reality, she did celebrate it with Major General Huo from the parallel dimension.

The Ace of the Far East was obviously surprised.”... You don’t celebrate Christmas?”

“Is that weird?” Gu Nianzhi gave a fake smile. “Then I can only say that you know too little of the world. Goodbye.”

After Gu Nianzhi kicked the Ace of the Far East out of the apartment, she wasn’t gleeful over her triumph.

She went back to her room thoughtfully and sat on the sofa. She hugged a panda pillow and frowned as she thought about what the Ace of the Far East had just said.

In the kitchen on the other side, Lu Yuan was cooking, but he was a little confused.

Lu Jin had been watching him intently from the side.

When Lu Yuan finished cooking a plate of braised pork and eggplant, lu Jin said excitedly, “You put salt twice just now. One time, you put it as sugar, and the other time, when you should have put salt, you put salt again.”

Lu Yuan pursed his lips.”... Why didn’t you say that just now?”

“I thought you invented a new method.” Lu Jin was very eager to learn. He kept taking videos of Lu Yuan cooking with his phone. “In the end, I realized that you were just distracted. What are you thinking about?”

Without saying a word, Lu Yuan poured out the plate of braised pork and eggplant, took the eggplant and cut it again. Then, he made it again in a deep-frying pan.

Lu Jin shook his head and looked at the video that was recorded on his phone. He said, “This video is no longer useful. I’d better use the surveillance camera to record it.”

Lu Yuan said coldly, “Even if you use a 120-frame camera to record it, you still can’t learn how to cook!”

Lu Jin: “... Boss, are you in a bad mood today?”

Lu Yuan was stunned. His mood had changed so much that even a slow-witted person like Lu Jin could tell?

Lu Yuan quickly collected his thoughts and focused his attention on the metal pot in front of him.

Lu Jin looked at him suspiciously for a while and then went to Gu Nianzhi’s room. He asked in puzzlement, “Did that deputy consul Peter make boss Lu angry?”

Gu Nianzhi came back to her senses and shook her head. “No... that Deputy Consul Peter just sold me information. He didn’t talk to President Lu.”

“Huh? Then why is boss Lu so dejected?” Lu Jin sat down on the sofa next to Gu Nianzhi and shook his head. “Forget it, Boss Lu’s heart is deeper than the sea, so I won’t try to figure him out. It’s better to talk to my daughter. It’s better for your physical and mental health.”

Gu Nianzhi: “...”

She still didn’t know that she had this ability.

But since Lu Jin was here, she analyzed it with him.

After all, Lu Jin knew Qin Yaoguang better.

“Dad, the deputy consul Peter told me something just now. He said that Qin Yaoguang wanted to shoot Qin Zhining because of me.”

Lu Jin immediately said, “... She wants to force you to show yourself.”

Gu Nianzhi: “...”

It was exactly what she had in mind.

Qin Yaoguang wanting Qin Zhining to pay with his life to “avenge” her was a lie. Forcing her to show herself was the truth.

“Even if you don’t show yourself, Qin Zhining will die. Qin Yaoguang won’t have any regrets.” Lu Jin added, “In a sense, she’s very stubborn. She doesn’t have much sympathy.”

“Yeah, how can an earthworm become a spirit?” Gu Nianzhi said resentfully. “Qin Zhining is stupid, but he’s really nice to me.”

She then told him about how Qin Zhining had saved her life on the Caribbean Sea Snake Island when she had first arrived.

Lu Jin didn’t think much of it. “He was just doing his job. Do you think he really wanted to save you? He was just carrying out the mission He Chengjian gave him. Just like this time he used you as bait to shoot him. He brought this upon himself.”

Gu Nianzhi couldn’t stand by and watch as Qin Yaoguang used him as a raft and shot him in the name of avenging her.

..

At the same time, in Qin Yaoguang’s villa, Wen Shouyi was discussing with her.

“Auntie Qin, will Gu Nianzhi be alive? The news of Qin Zhining getting executed has been out for two weeks, but she hasn’t come to plead for him.”

“Gu Nianzhi is actually quite a saint, so she wouldn’t let go of such an opportunity to show off her ‘moral integrity’, but she hasn’t shown up yet. Could it be that she’s be in deep trouble?”

Qin Yaoguang closed her eyes and sighed. “She should be dead... what a pity. What a good experiment material...”

“Auntie Qin, don’t be anxious. I think Young Master He should be the one to handle this matter.” Wen Shouyi quietly suggested to Qin Yaoguang, “Why don’t we... find Qin Zhiyuan, Qin Zhining’s brother? His brother is going to be shot. If he comes back, he will definitely talk to Young Master He...”

Then, He Zhichu would have no choice but to come out of the base.

As long as HeZhichu came out, they would be able to find a way to locate Gu Nianzhi’s body from him.
