Chapter 2134

“You really keep your dream alive.”Gu Nianzhi smiled and shook her head. “Should I say that you have high expectations but low skills, or are you ambitious? Have you ever thought that if you want Carlyle to consult, they might not accept your business?”

“Whatever you think.”Guo Huining looked at Gu Nianzhi with an obscure gaze. “Anyway, Carlyle accepted it and even sent their best analyst to make a preliminary proposal for us.”

“Haha, what a coincidence.”Gu Nianzhi narrowed her eyes. Her mind raced as she muttered, “What if this is also a trap? But why would they look for you to make a breakthrough?”

The Hong Corporation was not a particularly well-known private company in the country, and Guo Huining was not a particularly suitable candidate either.

Regardless of whether their ultimate goal was song jinning or Gu Nianzhi, Guo Huining was not a particularly good candidate because she barely interacted with Gu Nianzhi and song jinning, and the two were not very close.

The only time Guo Huining interacted with Gu Nianzhi was during winter two years ago, when they had a meal together. At that time, they had eaten together with Huo Shaoheng’s childhood friend, Xue Jingjiang, and a few other friends.

Gu Nianzhi’s fingers subconsciously tapped lightly on the table. Her gaze fell on Guo Huining’s face, and she suddenly thought of her entanglement with Huo Guanchen.

Even if Huo Guanchen was putting on an act, he had chosen Guo Huining to put on an act. Other women wouldn’t even be able to get close to him..

It was obvious that Guo Huining still had a certain degree of attraction to Huo Guanchen, right?

Gu Nianzhi still didn’t know much about men’s mentality. She felt that there must be something she didn’t know about, and that everything was connected.

Huo Shaoheng, on the other hand, came prepared.

He took out his phone and looked through the last time he raided the sovereign law office. He found something unexpected.

The legal person of the sovereign law office was Guo Hongmao, and he was also the boss of the firm.

A year and a half ago, when he zhichu had left in a hurry, he was the one who had paid to buy the sovereign law office.

Originally, not everyone with the surname Guo was related. However, Guo Huining was involved in the case, so Huo Shaoheng had someone investigate the background of the boss, Guo Hongmao, and his relationship with Guo Huining.

This investigation was really eye-opening.

Huo Shaoheng selected some content from his phone and forwarded it to Gu Nianzhi. He then sent a text message to Zhao liangze, asking him to send over the files from the previous investigation on Guo Hongmao and find some content that Gu Nianzhi had access to.

Gu Nianzhi looked down and raised her eyebrows slightly. She looked at Guo Huining again, and Gu Nianzhi’s eyes were filled with a different content.

She suddenly asked, “What is Guo Hongmao’s relative?”

Guo huining frowned subconsciously.”... Guo Hongmao? That name sounds familiar. Where have I heard it before?”

Huo Shaoheng:”...”

She actually didn’t know Guo Hongmao?

Was this an act, or was it real?

Gu Nianzhi looked at her in surprise. “You don’t know that the boss of Jun Lin law firm is called Guo Hongmao?”

Guo Huining:”...”

She shook her head and said weakly and tiredly, “I remember now that you said that, but I don’t know him at all.”

“You don’t Know Him? You went to Jun Lin law firm to do so many cases?”Gu Nianzhi didn’t believe her.

Guo huining said weakly, “Why would I lie to you at this time?”

She continued, “I have a senior brother who is a senior lawyer at Jun Lin law firm. I usually contact him. With him around, what does the boss of Jun Lin law firm have to do with me?”

Gu Nianzhi thought that with Guo Hongmao’s relationship with Guo Huining, the two of them should have been in contact a long time ago, but Guo Huining didn’t seem to know him.

“Who’s your senior at King’s Landing Law Firm?”Huo Shaoheng interrupted.

“Jin Dazhuang. Gu Nianzhi, you know him too.”Guo huining glanced at Gu Nianzhi. “He’s quite capable, but he’s just unlucky.”

Gu Nianzhi composed herself and realized that the “Jin dazhuang”Guo Huining was referring to was Jin Dazhuang, not Jin Dazhuang, who had given her her first job in the other world.

Jin Dazhuang had left the Jin corporation after losing a lawsuit to Gu Nianzhi.

He Zhichu had taken him in when he couldn’t find a job anywhere.

“I didn’t know he was still in King’s Landing,”Gu Nianzhi muttered. “You really don’t know Guo Hongmao?”

“Why would I know him? Just because his surname is Guo? Fine, they’re all surnamed Guo. We were a family 500 years ago, okay?”Guo huining slapped her forehead, growing impatient.

At this time, Zhao liangze had already sent some background information on Guo Hongmao to Huo Shaoheng. Of course, Gu Nianzhi had the authority to look at it.

Huo Shaoheng looked at it and smiled. “Guo Huining, before your grandmother married your grandfather, she had a son, right?”

Guo Huining:”...”

She blushed with anger. “How did you know? My grandmother was never married before she married my grandfather!”

Huo Shaoheng looked up calmly, he looked at her and said, “Before your grandmother married your grandfather, she had another son. His name was Cai Hongmao, but after he married your grandfather, he changed his surname to your grandfather’s. “From this perspective, your grandfather knew about this child. “But he didn’t live with your grandfather and grandmother. Instead, he grew up with his grandparents.”

This twist..

The corners of Gu Nianzhi’s mouth twitched as she thought to herself, who would have the time to go through all this trouble and end up with Guo Huining.

Guo Huining’s face paled again.

She had no idea that she had such a powerful relative in her family!

After so many years, this Cai Hongmao — no, Guo Hongmao — had never appeared in the Guo family’s life.

Guo Huining had no idea.

She shook her head blankly and said, “I don’t know this person. I’ve never seen him before. could he be the boss of King’s Landing Law Firm?”

“Yes.”Gu Nianzhi hadn’t fully figured out what was going on, but she was already confident enough to fool Guo Huining, “He’s the boss of King’s Landing law firm. That’s strange. Aren’t you from an ordinary family? How could this uncle be so rich that he could buy shares from professor he? is your grandmother’s family rich?”

“That’s not right... If your grandmother’s family is very rich, then your family is definitely not an ordinary family.”Gu Nianzhi immediately denied her speculation.

Guo Huining actually didn’t know what was going on either. She quickly said, “My grandmother’s family is also an ordinary family. When I was young, I heard my father say that they were a match for our family.”

“So your uncle’s biological father’s family is rich?”Gu Nianzhi asked curiously.

“I don’t know.”Guo huining frowned and muttered, “You have to ask him. He has never met me before.”

Gu Nianzhi:”... you really don’t know this relative?”
