Chapter 1821
Hello, Mr. Major General
After jogging home, Gu Nianzhi went to the bathroom to take a shower and tidy up her hair.
She was holding a hair dryer and talking to Huo Shaoheng, who was leaning against the bathroom door.
âI ran into Reinitz today. I said I was interested in the security system for the computer database. He asked me to go to the Metropolitan Museum Tomorrow and Show Me the companyâs database security system.â
Huo Shaohengâs eyes narrowed. âThe Metropolitan Museum of Art of New York City?â
âYes, is there a problem?âGu Nianzhi finished drying her hair and turned to look at him.
Huo Shaoheng thought of something and turned to Gu Nianzhi. âChange and come out for dinner. I have something to ask director Lu.â
Lu Yuan was checking his email in the living room computer.
He was still the president of the Lu Corporation. He couldnât be like Lu Jin, who didnât care about anything.
He still had to reply to work emails.
Huo Shaoheng sat down next to him and suddenly asked, âDid you send a coordinate signal to your cell phone at the Metropolitan Museum of Art of New York City?â
Lu Yuanâs hand paused. He looked up at him and said, âYes.â âWhatâs Wrong?â? âYou guys received the signal. Did you get any inspiration from decoding it?â? Lu Jin said that decoding the signal could find the pattern and frequency of magnetic resonance, which would be helpful for you guys to contact us. Unfortunately, before you could contact us, Nianzhi was kidnapped...â
Huo Shaoheng had long guessed that it was related to Lu Yuan. Now that he had confirmed it, he felt much more at ease. He said, âNo wonder we received the signal and found traces of an abnormal magnetic field, but it disappeared very quickly.â
â... we donât have enough magnetic field energy storage. Itâs impossible to send such an enlightening signal without limits.â
Lu Yuan closed his computer and couldnât help but think of song jinning.
After a moment of silence, he finally asked,â... who received the signal?â
Huo Shaoheng turned his head away indifferently.â... Ms. Song.â
Lu Yuanâs emotions surged when he heard the name. The images of the two of them interacting in the past flashed past his mind like pencil drawings with ink-colored lines. They were both clear and illusory.
His self-control was extremely strong. Even if he missed him, he would not indulge himself.
He stood up quietly and walked to the window. He stood still and looked out at the Central Park.
It was early summer there. Tender green leaves had just climbed onto the branches. As far as the eye could see, it was all lush green.
After a while, Lu Yuan turned to look at Huo Shaoheng, who was even calmer than him. The corners of his mouth twitched.â... did Ms. Song send you here?â
Huo Shaoheng did not look up to meet Lu Yuanâs eyes. The corners of his lips curled up as he nodded, there was a hint of pride in his deep, magnetic voice. âOf course it was Ms. Song. The only person who could decipher the two magnetic codes left behind by Gu Xiangwen was Ms. Song.â
Lu Yuan thought back to that stunning young girl from back then. Not only was she incredibly intelligent, but she was also incredibly beautiful. She was just a little slow in love.
He raised his head and smiled. Several years had passed in his mind. Qiu Hong had sent him a letter, but his dreams were still intact.
There was an indescribable sense of peace and serenity in the living room.
Gu Nianzhi walked over with her hair in a bun. She looked at the two of them standing and sitting in confusion and asked, âWhat are you two talking about?â
Her soft and gentle voice was like the early summer wind blowing through the treetops. Huo Shaohengâs throat tightened and he felt a little hot.
He stood up and pulled out the chair next to him. He said to Gu nianzhi, âCome, sit down. Letâs demonstrate tomorrowâs action.â
Gu Nianzhi was instantly elated. âGreat! Iâve done well these past few days, havenât I? !â
Her big eyes suddenly lit up, and her face was filled with the words âPraise meâ!
Huo Shaoheng gently scratched her straight and delicate little nose. âItâs okay. I passed by just so-so.â
âHuh? ! I had to use all my strength to pass? ! Huo Shao, arenât you being too strict? !âGu Nianzhi sensed that Lu Yuan was feeling a little down, so she deliberately made an exaggerated joke to make him happy.
Lu Yuan turned around and sat on the windowsill with a smile on his face as he watched Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng Act shamelessly.
Huo Shaoheng rubbed her head and his fingers lightly touched the soft skin on her cheek, as if he had been electrocuted.
Huo Shaoheng calmly averted his gaze and turned on Lu Yuanâs laptop to show her.
This scene was a little jarring and familiar. The decades of time before him seemed to have disappeared, and he returned to the time he had spent with that young girl.
The two of them did not spend much time alone together, and it was all for business, but every minute and every second was precious.
Lu Yuan pursed his lips and walked out of the living room.
..
The next day, the weather was not very good. It often rained in New York in early summer, and April and May were the most rainy months.
Gu Nianzhi held an umbrella with a picture of Monetâs most famous lotus pond on it and walked towards the Metropolitan Museum of Art of New York City.
The museum was also near Central Park, not far from Gu Nianzhiâs apartment and within walking distance.
Reinitz wore a medium-length black poncho and stood upright on the steps of the museum. He held a black laptop bag in one hand and scanned the crowd.
His blond hair, blue eyes, and handsome and tall appearance were too eye-catching for ordinary tourists. From time to time, bold young girls would approach him, trying to get his contact information.
Reinitz calmly used German to express that he did not understand English.
Not long after, he saw the unique umbrella and the woman who was smiling under it.
She looked up at him on the steps. Her Bright Eyes were the most dazzling scenery on a rainy day.
Reinitz immediately revealed his most perfect smile. He walked down the steps gracefully and extended his hand to her. âIs the road easy to walk on? Itâs raining today. I should have gone to pick you up, but you werenât willing.â
He spoke English with a pure English accent.
The girls who had been rejected by him for âNot understanding Englishâ:â...â
Gu Nianzhi held the umbrella in her other hand and silently avoided Reinitzâs outstretched hand. She nodded with a smile. âI live very close to you. You Donât have to go through so much trouble.â
Her gaze fell directly on the laptop bag in Reinitzâs hand. âIs this what you wanted to show me?â
Reinitz took Gu Nianzhiâs umbrella and defused the awkwardness. âGo in, Iâll take you to a good place.â
Gu Nianzhi had never been to this museum before. Although it was very famous here, it was considered a tour for internet children to read the pictures of other peopleâs travel notes.
So even though she had never been here before, she was no stranger to the decorations and exhibits.
She followed Reinitz into the museum and walked all the way until she reached a corner that was rarely visited by tourists.
Reinitz turned around with a smile and winked at her. âCome, sit here. I brought you here because this is the most comfortable sofa in the entire museum.â
Gu Nianzhi:â...â
She looked around.
It turned out that this was the Lehmann Gallery, where Mr. Lehmannâs life-long collection of famous paintings was kept.
Gu Nianzhi looked at the biography of the man next to the oil painting and her mood became even more complicated.
This man was actually the founder of the largest investment bank, Lehmann brothers, which her father, Lu Jin, had âDestroyed.â.
Reinitz did not know what Gu Nianzhi was thinking. He saw her staring blankly at the oil painting that was hanging right in front of her and said, âThis is the portrait of Princess Debroy, the masterpiece of the neo-classical Master Angor.â
He looked at the painting and then at Gu Nianzhi. He smiled and whispered into her ear,â... compared to you, sheâs just a maid. Youâre the Princess.â
He teased her again,â... Iâm your maid.â
Gu Nianzhi came back to her senses and smiled. âYouâre joking. Sheâs a proper princess, and Iâm not a princess. Besides, I canât afford to hire a maid like you...â
Reinitz laughed at her retort and did not continue to argue.
He sat down on the sofa, turned on his computer, and said, âHere, let me show you my computer database security system.â
Gu Nianzhi keenly caught on to his words. âYour Computer Database Security System? Didnât you say that itâs a companyâs computer database? This company is yours?â
Reinitz pursed his lips and thought to himself, this girl is really not to be underestimated. Sheâs really too sharp. She accidentally let slip and caught him off guard.
However, this aroused his fighting spirit even more.
Itâs only fun if theyâre evenly matched, right?
