Chapter 2040 - fishermen and Fish (3)(third update)

Happiness was like fireworks in the middle of the night, catching people off guard. It fell from the sky just like that.

Guo Huining was dumbfounded. Her heart was pounding, and the sound of blood rushing in her ears was ringing.

For a moment, she could barely see or hear. She was completely immersed in Huo Guanchen’s low-pitched question.

Huo Guanchen’s voice rang in her ears again,”... you haven’t spoken for so long. It seems that I’m overthinking things.”

“No, no, no! You’re Not!”Guo huining came back to her senses and hurriedly said loudly, “I’m willing! I’m Willing! I’m Willing!”

She spoke so urgently that she almost stuttered.

However, she couldn’t care about these things. She just couldn’t wait to pour out all her feelings.

Huo Guanchen pursed his lips, but he still listened without saying a word. Finally, he said gently, “It’s good that you don’t think I’m Old.”

“Why would I think you’re Old? !”Guo Huining was excited. “I’m in my thirties, and you’re Only in your fifties. You’re not old at all!”

“Now, an old man in his sixties or even eighties is still looking for a young girl in her twenties...”

Huo Guanchen smiled and nodded. “Okay, then I’ll go with you next week, but I only have about twenty minutes.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Twenty minutes is Enough!”Guo Huining was elated. She held her phone and walked around the room. “So, we agreed to go together next Friday evening?”

“Okay,”Huo Guanchen said briefly. “I’ll ask my secretary to record the time and pick you up at the West Mountain Villa.”

“Okay.”Guo Huining’s voice was so gentle that water could flow out of it.

After hanging up the phone, she looked at the mirror on the dressing table and was stunned by her bright eyes and ruddy skin.

Sure enough, Love was the best maintenance for women!

..

When she was in a good mood, time passed very quickly.

In the blink of an eye, it was Friday. Guo Huining had been busy shopping for a week and a half, and it took her a long time to pick out a suitable evening dress.

If not for the fact that she was pressed for time, she would have flown to Europe to order a custom-made evening gown.

Because this Christmas party was extraordinary to her.

It was the night she officially established a relationship with Huo Guanchen. It was also a turning point in her life. Even if it was a little more expensive, it was nothing.

She got up early in the morning and drove into the city. She found the beauty salon that she was most familiar with and started the whole body maintenance program.

She had to appear in front of everyone in her best condition.

..

In the evening, Huo Guanchen’s car stopped in front of his private house in the West Mountain Villa on time, waiting for Guo Huining to come out.

Guo Huining did not let him wait too long. Soon, she wore her favorite royal blue LV evening gown and a cashmere coat, and walked out of the villa’s gate.

When she came to Huo Guanchen’s car, she bent down and knocked on the window, nodding with a smile.

Huo Guanchen’s driver lowered the window, and Huo Guanchen’s handsome face appeared from the rear window. He looked at Guo huining and praised, “Very beautiful.”

The smile on Guo Huining’s face grew wider.

She walked to the other side of the car and opened the rear door. She sat directly in the back seat and was in the same row as Huo Guanchen.

Huo Guanchen moved to the side as if he was giving her a seat. However, the distance between the two of them was huge.

Guo Huining did not notice this at all. Her mind was filled with the fantasy of having a perfect life today.

The car sped all the way and soon arrived at the Sheraton Hotel in the western city of the imperial capital.

The Christmas Party of the Carlyle Company’s Huaxia Branch was held here.

This kind of large international investment company played with capital operations. Naturally, the people who came and went were either rich or noble. They were all top-notch figures in the financial world.

There were very few big shots like Huo Guanchen in the military world. Moreover, he was one of a kind.

Therefore, when he got off the car with Guo Huining, it suddenly caused a sensation.

The security guards around Huo Guanchen instantly formed a human wall, separating the reporters from the crowd.

Guo huining smiled reservedly and held Huo Guanchen’s arm as they walked into the Sheraton Hotel.

Inside the door was the familiar sight of her clothes, her hair, and her face. There were scholars chatting and laughing, but there was no white ding.

This was the world that she belonged to.

After Huo Guanchen and her entered, the big bosses of the China region of Carlyle immediately walked over and respectfully welcomed them into the small reception room inside.

Compared to the hall outside, the decoration here was more luxurious, and there were fewer people inside.

Keven sat at the head of the table inside, surrounded by a few fresh and beautiful female models.

They were the most comfortable in such an occasion.

When they saw Huo Guanchen in his military uniform, the female models’eyes lit up, and they rushed to surround him.

However, they could not get close to Huo Guanchen and Guo Huining. They could only stare at Guo Huining unwillingly.

Guo huining could not be in a better mood.

She brought Huo Guanchen directly to Kevin and said with a smile, “Mr. Kevin, thank you for your help a few days ago.”

Keven stood up and extended his hand to shake Guo Huining’s hand. Then, he looked at Huo Guanchen with a smile, “This is... ?”

Guo huining secretly glanced at Huo Guanchen and took the initiative to say, “This is Mr. Huo, my boyfriend. The last time I asked Mr. Keven to find Dr. Tony, it was to save Mr. Huo’s father.”

Otherwise, with Dou Aiyan and associate director Jia’s status, they would not have been able to invite Dr. Tony.

At first, Guo Huining thought it was Dou Aiyan’s power, but later, she realized that it was actually Kevin who had pulled the strings. However, he had not shown up yet at that time, and it was Dou Aiyan and associate director Jia who were operating at the front desk.

Huo Guanchen smiled and took the initiative to shake hands with Kevin. “Thank you, Mr. Kevin, for your help. Otherwise, my father would still be in a vegetative state.”

“Mr. Huo, what are you saying? It’s our honor to be able to help your father.”Kevin was still elegant and handsome, but his eyes were more attentive.

This was exactly what Guo Huining had guessed.

No matter how rich a person was, they had to bow in front of power.

She held Huo Guanchen’s arm even tighter.

However, Huo Guanchen said that he could only stay for 20 minutes.

When 20 minutes was still five minutes away, his personal secretary had already reminded him, “Chief, we have to go. The military still has a meeting.”

“It’s so late at night, and your military still has a meeting?”Keven asked casually and curiously.

“I’m sorry, this is our job. Please forgive me for not having any comment.”Huo Guanchen’s personal secretary was watertight and did not gossip with Keven.

Huo Guanchen did not say much. He nodded and said to guo huining, “I’ll leave first. You play a little longer. I’ll leave a car for you and a driver. I can send you home no matter how late it is.”

Guo huining smiled and nodded repeatedly. “Okay, thank you, Guanchen.”

This was the first time she had addressed Huo Guanchen in this way. Huo Guanchen paused for a moment, his expression unchanged as he turned to leave with a smile on his face.

Just as he, his personal secretary, and the security guards walked out of the small reception room, they suddenly noticed a commotion at the entrance of the hall.

At this time, the executives had escorted two more people in.

Huo Guanchen stopped to take a look and was surprised to see that it was speaker long and Gu Nianzhi!

Speaker Long had a youthful face and white hair, and was beaming with joy.

Gu Nianzhi did not wear an evening gown like the other ladies. Instead, she wore a custom-made pair of professional pants for the ladies. There was nothing else on her body except the watch on her left wrist, which was a symbol of her wealth and heritage.

Huo Guanchen frowned slightly.

Keven walked out with Guo Huining with a smile on his face.

Guo Huining looked up and saw Gu Nianzhi. Her good mood from the whole night had been ruined.

“What’s going on? Why did you invite her?”Guo huining pouted at Gu Nianzhi.

“Our company wants to expand its business in Huaxia. Of course, first, Huaxia has to remove the restrictions on foreign investment in the financial industry,”Kevin explained quietly. “We definitely have to build a good relationship with the Senate. Otherwise, where do we start?”

Guo Huining was both angry and annoyed.”... But you invited me today!”

Kevin:”...”Keven:”...”

If he hadn’t let people know that Guo Huining would be attending with her new boyfriend, General Huo, today, they wouldn’t have been able to catch a big fish like Gu Nianzhi..

Everyone knew that the Senate’s chief legal advisor, Gu Nianzhi, had never attended such events.

But this time, Keven had thought it through and knew that she would definitely come.

Gu Nianzhi stood beside speaker long, chatting and exchanging pleasantries as she quietly surveyed the entire hall.

Huo Guanchen and the others who had walked out of the small reception room first caught her attention.

Gu Nianzhi’s eyes narrowed as she looked at Guo huining behind Huo Guanchen.

It was real..

General Huo was actually with Guo Huining.

The two of them attending such an event together, even if they were not boyfriend and girlfriend, it was still extraordinary.

Huo Guanchen was also stunned when he saw Gu Nianzhi. Something flashed through his mind.

The other party’s target was actually Gu Nianzhi? !

Could it be that even song jinning and himself were the other party’s fronts?

But he had heard from Huo Shaoheng that those who coveted Gu Nianzhi had already been eradicated by his good son..

Moreover, Gu Xiangwen was already dead, and most of his belongings had been donated to the country. Why was there still someone staring at Gu Nianzhi?

Huo Guanchen’s thoughts instantly returned to Lu Yuan.

There was no doubt that Lu Yuan was his eldest brother, Huo Guanyuan.

His eldest brother had suddenly disappeared because of the failure of the experiment eighteen years ago.

He had returned eighteen years later with Gu Nianzhi and her “Father,”Lu Jin.

Could it be that Gu Nianzhi had something to do with the failure of the experiment?

But she was only two years old at the time..

Gu Nianzhi looked over curiously at that moment, and Huo Guanchen nodded at her with a smile.

Huo Guanchen had already thought of so many things in the moment they met.

He had thought that he already knew what they were up to, but now he wasn’t so sure.

Gu Nianzhi lowered her head and spoke to speaker long, then walked over to Huo Guanchen.

Huo Guanchen saw that everyone was looking at him again, so he turned and walked back to the small meeting room.

Keven put his hands in his pockets and asked politely, “Mr. Huo, stay a little longer.”

Huo Guanchen said indifferently, “I saw an acquaintance, so I said something and left.”

Guo Huining walked up uneasily and held Huo Guanchen’s arm tightly.
