Chapter 1946
Hello, Mr. Major General
âItâs just a meal. Whoâs going to make you suffer?âHuo Shaoheng did not hide his surprised expression and tone at all.
Hong Ziqi immediately understood. His long, pretty face instantly flushed red. He stammered, âMaybe thereâs some misunderstanding. Iâll go take a look.â
Huo Shaoheng also stood up and said lightly, âNo need. Iâm here to accompany my fiancée. Sheâs not eating, so thereâs no need for me to stay. Goodbye.â
He nodded casually at Hong Ziqi and then politely said to Xue Jingjiang, who had no idea what was going on, âJingjiang, thereâs no need to stand on ceremony. Weâll contact each other again when we have time.â
Xue Jingjiang knew the nature of Huo Shaohengâs work, so he never asked him what he was doing, nor would he take the initiative to inquire about his whereabouts.
He only greeted Huo Shaoheng during new yearâs and New Yearâs, and coincidentally, they would get together. Usually, Huo Shaoheng was the one who contacted him, so he couldnât contact Huo Shaoheng.
Today, Huo Shaoheng had asked him for a reservation at the Hong Hotel. Huo Shaoheng was overjoyed and rushed over to meet him.
Seeing that Huo Shaoheng was about to leave, he quickly stood up and said, âDid someone accidentally offend Mrs. Huo? who has the guts to do that? ! Huo Shao, donât worry, Iâll help Mrs. Huo vent her anger!â
He had paid more attention to Huo Shaoheng than Hong Ziqi, so he naturally knew about the news of Huo Shaoheng and Gu Nianzhiâs engagement in Russia. He had also seen the engagement ceremony hosted by the Russian president, Putin.
Huo Shaoheng smiled faintly. âNo need, itâs just a meal. Just donât eat it in the future.â
He had no leeway with the Hong Hotel. Besides, it wasnât worth it for him to have leeway with a business like this.
His nianzhi had never been an unreasonable person. Now that she could say something like that, he didnât know how much she had suffered at the Hong Hotel.
Although Huo Shaoheng did not show it on his face, he was in fact the same as Gu Nianzhi. The Hong hotel was on the âNever set foot inâlist.
Huo shaoheng whistled softly and left with the short-legged little corgi, Ah Ke.
Hong Ziqi couldnât even keep up with Huo Shaohengâs pace.
Xue Jingjiang saw this and stopped him. âThereâs no need to chase him. Letâs go see whatâs going on.â
Hong Ziqiâs face was extremely gloomy. He clenched his fists and rushed to the lobby on the first floor in anger.
The waiter in the Red Vest was about to go upstairs when he met Hong Ziqi. He quickly ran up and said softly, âYoung Master Hong, the three guests have left. They had a very unpleasant fight with Miss Guo.â
âLeft? ! Why didnât you stop them? !âHong Ziqi glared at the waiter in the Red Vest. âDidnât I say that I would treat them well? !â
âI know, but Miss Guo...âthe waiter in the red vest smiled bitterly. He knew that he was no longer a human being.
But he had no choice. Being a low-level worker was easy to blame.
She lowered her head and didnât say anything else.
Hong Ziqi snorted. âTake me to see Miss Guo. I want to ask what happened. If you dare to lie, watch how I Punish You!â
He wouldnât just listen to the waiterâs words.
The waiter in the Red Vest silently led Hong Ziqi back to the window seat by the back window.
After Gu Nianzhi and the others left, Guo Huining went all out and immediately called the three people from the investment bank over for dinner.
The four of them just happened to fill up their seats.
When Hong Ziqi and the others arrived, the three women and one man were talking about something happy, and the sound of laughter could be heard everywhere.
Hong Ziqi frowned even more.
He put his hands in his trouser pockets and walked over slowly, saying, âExcuse me, can I have a word with huining?â
Guo Huining looked up and saw Hong Ziqi standing in front of her with an unfriendly expression. She felt a little uncomfortable, but she still said with a smile, âZiqi is here. Come, let me introduce you.â
She stood up and pointed at the other three people on the table. âThis is Yi Xinyan, the chief analyst of Pacific Rim for Carlyle Investment Ltd. .â
âThis is Dou aiyan, an intern in the Asian Legal Department of Carlyle Investment Ltd. .âShe paused and said with a smile, âMiss Douâs father used to be the prime minister.â
As for the matter of Prime Minister Dou going to prison for colluding with the Japanese, she never mentioned it.
But Xue Jingjiang could not not mention it.
He was very surprised to find Dou aiyan here.
â... Prime Minister Dou? Is it that Prime Minister Dou who colluded with the Japanese and tried to disrupt the election?âXue Jingjiang said casually, âI remember that Prime Minister Dou is already in prison. How did this become the capital to show off?â
Dou Aiyan was furious. She suddenly turned around and saw that the person who spoke was actually Xue Jingjiang.
The anger in her stomach was stuck in her body. It was like a pile of black gunpowder that was on the verge of exploding, but it was suddenly doused with a basin of cold water. Black smoke rose into the sky and could only poison her.
She knew Xue Jingjiang.
When her father was still the prime minister, the Xue family still had a relationship with their family.
It was just that she was not very familiar with Xue Jingjiang. Her sister Dou Qingyan used to play with Xue Jingjiang and the others.
When she thought of her sister, Dou Aiyanâs eyes flashed with a trace of viciousness.
She would not die silently like her sister!
Xue Jingjiang caught a glimpse of Dou Aiyanâs unpredictable expression. It was as if she had opened a paint shop. Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, blue, and purple, all seven colors were present. It was very interesting.
He bowed slightly. âSecond Miss Dou, didnât you drop out of B Universityâs law department? Did you go abroad to study?â
Before Dou Aiyan could think of what to say, Guo huining had already said, âPrime Minister Dou made a mistake, but our society is not united. Prime Minister Douâs mistake has nothing to do with Dou Aiyan.â
âAfter Dou Aiyan dropped out of B Universityâs law department, she went to Oxford University in the United Kingdom and continued her undergraduate degree there. She is now a senior and is working as an intern at Carlyle Investment Ltd. . âBasically, she has already been appointed as an intern lawyer in the legal department of Carlyle Investment Limited.â
Guo Huining took the opportunity to introduce the only male at the table, âThis is Mr. Jia from Carlyle Investment Limited. Mr. Jia is the deputy director of the Securities Underwriting Department and also the main contact person for the Hong Groupâs listing this time.â
Finally, she said, âCarlyle Investment Limited is the largest investment securities distributor in the world. Our Hong Group has gone through several rounds of selection before we have chosen to work with Carlyle Investment Limited.â
Hong Ziqiâs complexion was slightly better. He nodded to Mr. Jia and said, âHello, Iâll have to trouble you with the companyâs matters.â
âGood, good, good. In business, the Hong Group is indeed a high-quality asset. Itâs worth going public and giving more benefits to the shareholders.âMr. Jia laughed in an official tone.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Hong Ziqi called Guo Huining to a small office on the other side of the hall. He closed the door and asked, âHuining, what exactly happened today?â
Following them in were two waiters in red and blue vests, as well as Xue Jingjiang, who looked like he was just watching the show.
Guo Huining looked a little uncomfortable. She coughed and said, âWhy donât we go inside and talk about it?â
She didnât want to lose face in front of the employees and Xue Jingjiang.
Hong Ziqi didnât agree. He raised his head and said, âLetâs talk here. Itâs convenient for you to confront each other.â
âI wonât believe only one side of the story. So I need your statements to be mutually corroborated.â
The corners of Guo Huiningâs mouth twitched.
Statements?
This ignorant playboy had been with her for so many years. did he understand the law?
However, even though Hong Ziqi could not give her face, she could not not give Hong Ziqi face.
She could not say what she really thought.
After a moment of awkwardness, guo huining said, âActually, itâs nothing serious. âItâs just that I invited three friends from the investment bank outside for a meal today. One of them said that the scenery here is good, so I remembered that we have reserved seats here, so I brought them over.â
Hong Ziqi glanced at the waiter in the red vest and said, âShe didnât tell you that Iâve already arranged reserved seats for someone else?â
The waiter in the red vest quickly said, âYoung Master Hong, I already told her. I specifically told her.â
She did not dare point at Guo Huining, but instead looked at the waiter in the Blue Vest.
In fact, at the beginning, it was indeed the waiter in the blue vest who had come over to ask Gu Nianzhi and the others to give up their seats.
Hong Ziqi raised his chin at the waiter in the Blue Vest. âTell me, whatâs going on? Didnât you know that my seat has already been given to someone else?â
The waiter in the Blue Vest panicked. She had no idea that the people on that seat were so popular..
She quickly tried to avoid it by saying,â... I told Miss Guo. Miss Guo said that she was coming to see if they had finished eating...â
Guo huining understood, she continued, âYes, she told me. I heard that the three of them had almost finished eating, so I came over to take a look. I hoped that they could make some adjustments. I even said that I had this meal on me. In the end... In the end...â
She felt wronged, and her eyes reddened again, âIn the end, that Gu Nianzhi spoke as if she had taken medicine. It was obviously a small matter, but she insisted on making a big deal out of it. âIf she didnât want to let me go, then so be it. I didnât chase her away, but she was completely unreasonable. She threw away the menu and left.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
It sounded reasonable, but Huo Shaoâs fiancée was too delicate.
Hong Ziqi hesitated for a moment, then looked down and thought for a moment, âMiss Gu is not old,âhe said. âI remember she was still in college two years ago. Youâre already 30 years old, canât you be more understanding? Why did you ask her to give up her seat?â
Guo huining was trembling with anger.
There were two things women hated the most. One was to say that she was fat, and the other was to say that she was old.
She gritted her teeth, she straightened her neck and said, âDidnât I do it for the sake of the company? Tell me, how many years has the group been preparing for the overseas listing? Donât you know how important it is to find a good foreign securities underwriter? If we donât build a good relationship, can you and I bear the loss of the company? !â
Hong Ziqiâs arrogance had subsided, and his heart was a little biased toward Guo Huining.
Xue Jingjiang, on the other hand, seemed to know what was going on in his heart. He said with a smile that was not a smile, âIn the end, director Guo thinks that the importance of Miss Gu and the others is not as important as your investment bank friends, right?â
Guo Huining thought to herself, that makes sense, but if you say it out loud, doesnât that make me look stupid?
She smiled and said, âYou canât put it that way. Jingjiang, you donât know that overseas listing and securities underwriters are too important. They can influence almost half of the decisions of the Foreign Securities Regulatory Commission. We have to be careful...â
She said it as if Xue Jingjiang didnât know what it meant to list overseas.
Xue Jingjiang sneered and shook his head, he said, âDirector Guo, I didnât say that overseas underwriters arenât important. But how important can the few people you hired today be in Carlyle Investment Limited? Forget about the vice president. The other chief analyst is from the Pacific Rim. And that Dou Aiyan is just an intern. You probably donât know that she has a personal grudge against Gu Nianzhi, right?â
âDid she say that the scenery here is good today and encourage you to change seats?â
Guo Huining hesitated.
It was indeed Dou aiyan who brought it up today. The other two did not object, and she agreed on the spur of the moment.
It was not that she did not regret it now, but she did not think about how serious it was. She just felt that she had lost face in front of Hong Ziqi.
â... If you donât deny it, Iâll take it as your acquiescence.âXue Jingjiang shrugged. âFrom this, I knew that it was definitely you who didnât pay attention today.â
Guo Huining was anxious. âHow is it that we didnât pay attention? I said it, I just saw that they were almost done eating...â
Xue Jingjiang saw that Guo Huining was still confused and did not want to tangle with her anymore, so he interrupted her without hesitation, he said, âDirector Guo, donât play word games with me. The person youâve offended is not me. Thereâs no point in explaining it to me.â
âIâm just reminding you that Dou Aiyanâs personal grudge with Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shao is extremely serious. If you listen to her and listen to her, youâve fallen into her trap. If you donât believe me, weâll just wait and see.â
He turned to Hong Ziqi and said, âYoung Master Hong, Iâll only remind you of one thing. Huo Shao is looking at his little fiancée like sheâs his eyeball. He canât stand the slightest bit of injustice. âBesides, donât you know that Gu Nianzhi is quite capable herself. âSheâs now the chief legal advisor of the Upper House of the Senate. Sheâs Speaker Longâs favorite successor...â
Hong Ziqi looked up abruptly, his eyes wide open. âWhat? ! Gu Nianzhi has risen so high? !â
Guo Huining was also shocked, she exclaimed, âThatâs impossible! Gu Nianzhi just graduated, how did she become the chief legal advisor of the Senate? ! Speaker long really didnât pull strings for the Huo familyâs sake? !â
âThe Senateâs chief legal advisor? Do you think this highly publicized position can be privately taught through favors?â
Xue Jingjiang gave the couple a contemptuous look.
They really werenât a family.
They were all the same ignorant and arrogant.
He finally understood why the Hong family had been so slow to agree to their marriage registration and wedding.
Which couple had been engaged for so many years and still hadnât gotten married?
It was obvious that they were still unhappy with Guo Huining.
If it werenât for the fact that Hong Ziqi was a little stupid and had no other major problems, and that he had been on good terms with Xue Jingjiang for so many years, Xue Jingjiang wouldnât have bothered to remind them.
He patted Hong Ziqi on the shoulder, he said cautiously, âDonât say that brother didnât remind you. Hurry up and prepare a generous gift for Gu Nianzhi. Ask her to be merciful and forgive director Guo for his momentary stupidity. Otherwise, just you wait...â
He still wanted to go public overseas?
Wait for the domestic liquidation..
Guo Huiningâs expression grew uglier and uglier, she couldnât help but say, âThe Huo family may be powerful, but they donât have to go against US commercial companies, do they? Besides, they are powerful and powerful, but if they really want to use their power to attack us, wouldnât we report them? Would the supervisory department stand by and watch these powerful people suppress us commoners?â
âIf they dare to do this, Iâll go online and let everyone judge me!â
This was a hint that she would use public opinion against the Huo family.
Xue Jingjiang thought to himself, the Huo family would certainly not go against the Hong family over such a small matter. You havenât reached that level yet.
However, no one could say for sure whether Huo Shaoheng would support his little fiancee.
Besides, Gu Nianzhi herself was also very powerful. Xue Jingjiang was also not sure if Gu Nianzhi would stand up for herself and take the Hong familyâs side.
At this time, he still did not know that Gu Nianzhi had a devil behind her. He only considered the abilities of Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng.
Moreover, Guo Huining was clearly the one who did not care about this matter. However, she kept putting on a âIâm weak, Iâm rightâattitude and bullying the strong. She was also drunk.
Did she really think the stone was made of tofu?
Xue Jingjiang stopped explaining and said to Hong Ziqi, âYoung Master Hong, thatâs all I have to say. You take care of yourself.â
..
At that moment, Huo Shaoheng ran out of the parking lot of the Hong Hotel. He saw Gu Nianzhi leaning against the car door with her hands behind her back. She had her head down and was kicking the small stone in the parking lot with one foot.
Chen lie and Ma Qiqi stood by her side, one on her left and the other on her right, as if they were trying to comfort her.
She looked like she had been wronged.
Huo Shaoheng walked over quietly and handed her the car keys,â... Letâs go home.â
