Chapter 2036 - don’t Play Dumb (second update)

Huo Guanchen’s personal secretary nodded solemnly. “Yes, we found it through surveillance. They called to confirm it. They asked Miss Guo to pick a time and they picked a place to meet.”

“Then what time did she pick?”Huo Guanchen asked calmly.

“They said their big boss will return to the country immediately, so Miss Guo picked next Monday.”

Monday was usually the busiest time for Huo Guanchen. Moreover, he had already promised to go back to visit grandfather Huo on the weekend, so he would definitely not go back on Monday.

A mocking smile appeared on Huo Guanchen’s face. “Okay, Monday it is. Send more people to keep an eye on it. Remember not to alert the enemy.”

..

The first snowfall of the winter season in the imperial capital lasted for an entire day and night.

Huo Guanchen was going to visit grandfather Huo at the West Mountain Villa the next day. However, due to the heavy snowfall, his motorcade was unable to go, so he only called to greet him.

It was not that Guo Huining was not disappointed, but when Huo Guanchen said, “I’m sorry,”her mood immediately improved. She smiled and said that it was fine, and then made an appointment for the next time they met.

Although Huo Guanchen said that he would come to see grandfather Huo, in Guo Huining’s heart, it had already become the date that she had agreed on with him.

At noon, Zhang Baochen actually brought Zhang Wenna and Zhang Wenjie to the West Mountain Villa.

Looking at the snow stains on their legs that almost reached their knees, Guo Huining was both emotional and gratified. She smiled and said, “You guys are finally here. Old Mr. Huo has been nagging all morning. I thought you guys wouldn’t come.”

Zhang Baochen smiled and changed his shoes at the entrance hall. “How could we not come? We agreed that we would definitely come if we came.”

When he saw grandfather Huo, grandfather Huo was even more touched and happy than Guo Huining. He said loudly, “He said that the snow is too heavy to come, but how could you guys come? ! It depends on whether you have the heart or Not!”

Zhang Baochen knew grandfather Huo very well. When he heard that, he smiled and said, “Dad, who are you talking about?”

“Who else? It’s your second brother!”Grandfather Huo laughed and scolded, “He actually called me this morning and said that the snow was too heavy to come!”

Guo huining quickly explained for Huo guanchen, “Old sir, it’s not that general Huo doesn’t want to come, but it’s just that it’s inconvenient for him to travel. He can’t just come and go like this with Mr. Zhang. There’s an entire motorcade...”

As she spoke, she looked at Zhang Baochen and gestured,”... What do you think, Mr. Zhang?”

Zhang Baochen smiled awkwardly, he said sourly, “That makes sense. Second Brother’s status is different. General, of course, when you go out, you’ll be surrounded. Unlike us, who parked the car in the temporary parking lot at the foot of the mountain and climbed up on two legs.”

Zhang Wenjie said blankly, “Actually, the mountain road has already been swept out. It is not easy to have snow-sweeping workers on such a remote mountain early in the morning.”

Guo huining nodded with a smile. “Yes, this is not an ordinary place. If you want to sweep the snow, you must first stay close to this side. However, what was swept out is only the sidewalk. The car can not get up.”

Grandfather Huo smiled brightly. He pointed at Guo huining and said, “You, with your clever mouth, you’re afraid that I’ll say something bad about Guan Chen!”

“Mr. Huo, what are you talking about? !”Guo huining blushed and waved her hand shyly. She turned around and went out to instruct the chef in the kitchen to cook.

Because the snow on the mountain had not been completely cleaned, it was not easy for Zhang Baochen and the others to go up and down the mountain. Therefore, after they came, the three of them stayed in the West Mountain Villa for two days. They only went down the mountain with Guo Huining on Monday.

At this time, the driveway on the mountain had been cleared. Guo Huining drove Zhang Baochen, Zhang Wenna, and Zhang Wenjie down the mountain to the temporary parking lot where they parked their cars.

When they arrived, Guo Huining opened the car door for them to get out of the car. She smiled and said, “I want to go into the city to buy some things. Help Yourself.”

Zhang Wenna said curiously, “What do you want to go into the city for? Aren’t you able to buy things online now?”

Shopping was tiring. An otaku like her did not like to crowd with people in the mall.

Guo Huining was stunned, but she immediately said, “There are too many fake goods online for what I want to buy. It’s better to go to the genuine goods store and compare them.”

“Okay.”Zhang Wenna could only nod. “Sister Huining, you are a rich person. You are not like us.”

Guo huining smiled but did not say anything. She drove into the city.

After a weekend, the snow in the capital had been cleaned up, but there were still many piles of snow on the side of the road, waiting for the snowplow to transport them away.

On Monday morning, working hours had already passed, so the capital was not crowded.

But because the road was still slippery, it took her half an hour to reach the place she had agreed to meet with that person.

Surprisingly, this person did not agree to meet her at any high-end private place. Instead, they agreed to meet at a large food stall area on the roof of an ordinary shopping mall.

There were too many people and too many mouths. Guo huining could not figure out why this person would do this.

However, as the big boss with a private jet, he did not mind. What did she mind?

Guo huining walked in with her Hermes Platinum Bag. The LV Cashmere coat she was wearing did not fit in with the atmosphere here.

She frowned and looked around. Suddenly, she saw a person who looked familiar.

He was wearing a short gray wool coat and was sitting at the place they had agreed on. The coat was open, revealing a similar-colored cashmere sweater with a heart-shaped collar and a silver-gray striped tie. He looked extremely elegant and handsome.

Just like her, he did not fit in with the environment here.

Guo huining was very surprised.

She did not expect the big boss behind that greasy middle-aged man, associate director Jia, to be so young and so good-looking..

Moreover, he could even condescend and sit in such a place where ordinary people ate.

It was like a bunch of lilies blooming in the dust, spotless.

However, looking at his steady manner and Duan Ning’s behavior, Guo Huining immediately recognized that this should be the big boss.

This kind of feeling was not something that associate director Jia, who deliberately pretended to be mysterious, could give.

She walked over with a smile and sat down gracefully in front of the man. Her fingers tapped on the plastic table twice. “Sir, it doesn’t seem to be the first time we’ve met.”

The man looked up at her. His voice was typical of a baritone, modest and neutral. “Is that so? But other than the photo, I don’t remember meeting this lady.”

“Don’t play dumb.”Guo huining smiled. “At the Yuan Ai Restaurant near the Institute of High Energy Physics, you were eating with a particularly beautiful woman on the second floor by the window. Am I right?”

At that time, the boss of the Yuan Ai restaurant had asked her to meet him. She was there and saw song jinning with her own eyes from the surveillance cameras, as well as the ring that Huo Guanchen had tried to give her..

Her memory was very good, and because that day was rather special, she clearly remembered all the circumstances of that place, including the table and chairs, as well as the people who were there at that time.

On the second floor of the restaurant, there was a pair of men and women sitting by the window not far away from the path led by the green vines.

The man was elegant and handsome, and the woman opposite him was mature and beautiful, a strange match.

On the left, there was a pair of mother and child. The child was only four or five years old, but he was sitting on his high chair obediently. He did not shout like other children.

The child’s mother was elegant and gentle. She was holding a wet tissue to wipe the child’s hands.

It was just a few simple people. Almost everything that happened that day was firmly embedded in her memory.

As the first person to enter her line of sight that day, this man naturally remembered it well.

“... I didn’t expect you to have gone that day,”guo huining said thoughtfully.

The man narrowed his eyes and smiled. He said charmingly, “But Miss Guo brushed past me without looking at me at all.”
