Chapter 1682 - Heart to Heart

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Qin Yaoguang and Old Master Qin had been brought back by He Chengjian to “assist the treatment.” Wen Shouyi needed He Chengjian’s permission to see them.

Gu Nianzhi’s heart tightened. Wen Shouyi had indeed come...

She was quite brave.

She pressed her step by step. It seemed that she not only didn’t take her seriously but strongly believed that He Chengjian would accept her suggestion in the end.

In fact, if Lu Jin had not interfered, Gu Nianzhi was certain that Qin Yaoguang and Wen Shouyi would have gotten their way again.

Her crow-like eyelashes fluttered, Gu Nianzhi calmly said, “General He, no matter what, I hope you can wait until the test results are out before making a decision. Mr. He’s current condition was still stable. If we do not have full confidence but try to ask someone to treat him... As you know, a skilled doctor could make him wish to die rather than live if he did anything.”

Gu Nianzhi claimed a serious consequence since she wanted to plant more seeds of doubt in He Chengjian’s heart.

He Chengjian listened quietly, his hands behind his back as he paced around the room. After a while, he looked up at her and said with a frown, “She didn’t do anything back then. If she does something now, it will only anger me. What good will it do her and the Qin Family?”

“There’s nothing in it for her. Even if Qin Yaoguang wanted to do it, Qin Baye wouldn’t let her do.” He Chengjian knew Old Master Qin very well.

This man had developed the Qin family from a small wealthy family in the south into a wealthy family. His knowledge and insight were not something ordinary people could compare to.

Gu Nianzhi didn’t know Old Master Qin very well, and didn’t want to analyze the problem from his perspective.

She was only trying to figure out Qin Yaoguang and Old Master Qin’s thoughts and actions from the worst perspective.

“General He, of course, what you said makes sense, but there’s a premise to what you’re saying. You’ll find out what they did to Mr. He in secret, and that’s why you were angered and took revenge on them.”

“But what if they’re certain that they did something that no one else will find out about?”

Gu Nianzhi raised her head slightly, revealing her slender and fair neck. Her expression was calm and composed, “For example, if you were frightened this time and thought that Mr. He had relapsed, then who knows where there’s a secret room? Who knows that there’s a subsonic weapon in the secret room? And who knows that Mr. He was attacked by a subsonic weapon 24 hours a day? !”

He Chengjian was stunned.

Yes, from a different point of view, the conclusion seemed to be completely different.

“From your own point of view, you think that all the conspiracies against Mr. He will be discovered by you. The people who carry out the conspiracies will definitely be mercilessly retaliated by you. Therefore, those people will definitely not do anything strenuous and unrewarding, nor will they carry out any conspiracies against Mr. He.”

“But this is your mentality, not the mentality of the people who carry out the conspiracies.”

“To put it simply, if the people who do bad things feel that they will definitely be discovered, then there is really no one in this world who does bad things.”

“In fact, there are many people who do bad things in this world. Why? Don’t they know that they will be punished if they are discovered? Of course they know, but they think that they will not be discovered. This is their motive and starting point.”

“From this angle, Qin Yaoguang and Old Master Qin might have done something to hurt Mr. He, only if they are sure that you won’t find out who did it.”

Gu Nianzhi’s words completely changed He Chengjian’s view.

He rarely tried to read others’ minds from this angle.

“Are you saying that they are sure that I will agree that it was a ‘relapse’ at the beginning?” He Chengjian muttered, “So I’ll definitely invite Qin Yaoguang to treat it, so I’ll definitely let her out. I won’t be able to tell what she’ll do during the treatment process even if I see it with my own eyes.”

Gu Nianzhi nodded heavily. “You’re right, that’s exactly what it means. We’re not medical experts, so it’s too risky to hand over the person we value the most to someone we don’t trust.”

He Chengjian did not say a word after hearing this. He put his hands behind his back and paced back and forth repeatedly.

With looking at his movement, she felt like she was going blind. The knocking on the door finally stopped He Chengjian.

He looked up at the intercom and asked, “What’s up?”

“Reporting to the Chief! The test result report is out!” The person who spoke was He Chengjian’s personal secretary. His voice trembled slightly.

He Chengjian quickly opened the door. “Come in and talk.”

He Chengjian’s personal secretary walked into the living room of He Zhichu’s suite with an inspection report in a semi-transparent red folder. He closed the door behind him, and said excitedly, “Sir! Qin Baye’s oxygen mask and Qin Yaoguang’s surgical gown are both mysterious!”

He Chengjian snatched the folder and opened it to read through the information quickly.

Gu Nianzhi pretended to be curious and asked He Chengjian’s personal secretary with eyes open widely, “What’s the mystery? Can I know?”

He Chengjian’s personal secretary quickly looked at He Chengjian and said, “Sir, can I tell Miss Gu?”

He Chengjian didn’t even look up and said, “It’s okay. She’s my lawyer. You can tell her.”

He Chengjian’s personal secretary puffed out her chest, and gestured to Gu Nianzhi with great delight. “Lawyer Gu, can you imagine that Qin Baye’s oxygen mask can defend against the nuclear bombs! It can defend against all kinds of magnetic energy, light energy, and electricity. Of course, there’s no need to mention sound waves. The ultrasound and infrasound waves are perfectly blocked!”

“Qin Yaoguang is even more interesting. Her surgical gown, surgical cap, and mask are all vacuum!”

Gu Nianzhi already knew that vacuum was the most effective way to block infrasound weapons.

But she could only ask with a confused expression, “What’s wrong with the vacuum? What’s so interesting about it?”

“You don’t know this, but vacuum can block the infrasound!” He Chengjian’s personal secretary reached out and almost slapped her thigh like a rural old lady. But halfway through, she felt that it was inappropriate and too embarrassing, so she quickly turned around, she slapped her other arm.

Gu Nianzhi heard the crisp sound and saw He Chengjian’s personal secretary clench her teeth in pain, she held back her laughter and clapped loudly. “I get it! They all knew that there would be an infrasonic weapon, so they took precautions in advance! It looks like only Mr. He was attacked!”

He Chengjian also finished reading the test report at this time.

Qin Yaoguang and Qin Baye’s evidence was completely conclusive.

If they wanted to say that they did not know anything, they could only lie to a fool.

Not to mention that He Chengjian was a very cunning and suspicious person. How could he be fooled by them?

But what if he did not think of checking the oxygen mask and the surgical gown? Or he had not thought of where there was a secret room, what the consequences would be.

He Chengjian threw the report to the ground with a thud. He was so angry that he was panting heavily, with his chest rose and fell violently. He gritted his teeth and his face turned purple. He was so angry that he was about to explode.

At this moment, the orderly’s voice came from the door again. “Reporting to the Chief! Wen Shouyi, the executive director of the Qin Private Hospital Group, requests to see the Chief!”

This time, he did not say he wanted to see Qin Yaoguang, but he wanted to see He Chengjian.

Of course, he must have come to plead on Qin Yaoguang’s behalf.

Gu Nianzhi originally thought that He Chengjian would definitely not see Wen Shouyi, but He Chengjian sighed heavily and said, “Let her in.”

He Chengjian left He Zhichu’s suite and went downstairs to see Wen Shouyi.

His personal secretary saw Gu Nianzhi’s anxious look and shook her head sympathetically. Without saying anything, she turned and followed He Chengjian to go downstairs.

Gu Nianzhi was so anxious that she ran out. Huo Shaoheng, who had been waiting at the door, grabbed her arm. “What are you going to do?”

Gu Nianzhi tugged at his iron-like hand and said anxiously, “I can’t let Wen Shouyi continue to be so glib!”

“Calm down.” Huo Shaoheng’s face was cold as he grabbed her. “He Zhichu is He Chengjian’s son. If he wants to court death, it’s none of your business. Whether his son lives or dies is none of your business.”

“Mr. Peter, you’ve gone too far.” Gu Nianzhi finally pushed Huo Shaoheng’s hand away. She frowned and said unhappily, “Mr. He has saved me many times. I Can’t just stand by and watch him be poisoned by Qin Yaoguang and Wen Shouyi. I must stop them!”

Huo Shaoheng pursed his lips. His eyes were dark and his face was expressionless. He said word by word, “You saved He Zhichu’s life. You Don’t owe him anything!”

The Committee of State Security (KGB) was not a secret. The He family knew that Huo Shaoheng had heard it from Lu Jin when he used his KGB identity to plant the bug.

Gu Nianzhi took a deep breath to calm herself down, she said softly, “Just like the last time, I didn’t want you to be killed because of me. I would have taken a bullet for you. Now that he is unconscious, I know that those people have ulterior motives and won’t help me. I will never forgive myself.”

She finally forced Huo Shaoheng’s hand away and ran towards the stairs.

Huo Shaoheng stood quietly for a while and looked back, just in time to see Gu Nianzhi’s back disappear on the spiral stairs.

He smiled and put his hands in his pockets. He walked towards the stairs unhurriedly.

In the living room of the He’s residence, Wen Shouyi was already sitting opposite He Chengjian, trying to persuade him.

“General He, I know you have a lot of questions, and so do I, but now is not the time to pursue these questions.”

“The most important thing for us now is to save Mr. He.”

“And the only person who has the ability to save Mr. He now is Aunt Qin,” Wen Shouyi said confidently, “Even if you don’t believe me, you have to believe Aunt Qin. She is infatuated with you, and she once gave birth to a child with you. I still remember how happy Aunt Qin was when she found out that she was pregnant with your child. She was so happy that she almost passed out. It was as if she had the whole world.”

“She’s never been so happy in her life.”

Gu Nianzhi heard this and couldn’t help snorting.

She thought that this is what it means to persuade others by reasonable argument and emotional appeal.

She walked over slowly and stood behind the sofa that He Chengjian was sitting on. She put her hands in her pockets, she casually put up a bridge to stir up the fire. “Objection. Heart to heart, considering that Qin Yaoguang wants to have a child with General He so much, she must hate Mr. He so much. Why would she really want to save him?”
