Hello, Mr. Major General - Chapter 1466
Chapter 1466: Pay Up Quickly
“I don’t want you to take my surname! You wish!” Gu Nianzhi rolled her eyes at him. “You’re a soldier, but you kidnapped and harmed innocent law-abiding citizens. That’s against the law you know!”
Qin Zhining spread his fingers and the corners of his mouth curled up in disdain. “Which eye of yours saw me kidnap you? Weren’t you free to move around just now? You were the one who ran back, and I didn’t even say that you sexually harassed me!”
Gu Nianzhi was so angry that she wanted to hit him.
She clenched her fists and tried to calm her anger and said, “When did I sexually harass you? Don’t flatter yourself!”
“… who was the one who threw himself at me just now?” Qin Zhining glanced at her disdainfully. “I’m a good, clean man. There’s someone I like in my heart. Save your energy and stop bothering yourself with me.”
“I never knew there was such a shameless person like you in this world,” Gu Nianzhi was so angry that she almost dug a hole in the seat cushion, “Who are you saying spent effort on you? Don’t forget that you’re a vicious kidnapper. I happen to be a normal person without Stockholm Syndrome.”
“Besides, with your looks, do you think you’re worth it? Narcissism is an illness that needs to be treated!” Gu Nianzhi scoffed. His looks were not even as good as Major General Huo’s pinky; how dare he wish that she would sexually harass him. HMPH!
The corners of Qin Zhining’s mouth twitched. “You judge only based on physical features. How shallow. I won’t stoop to the level of a little girl.”
As he spoke, he jumped out of the car and slammed the door shut. He then walked over to the place Gu Nianzhi had told him about.
Gu Nianzhi had wanted to use all means to get as far away from this person as possible, but now that this person left, she was actually a little scared.
After all, given two evils one would pick the lesser. Compared to those disgusting strands of “rime”, this kidnapper was much more pleasing to the eye.
Gu Nianzhi wrapped herself tightly with the small blanket and wished she could hide from sight.
…
Not long after, Qin Zhining came over with two colorful strands of “rime” and waved them at Gu Nianzhi through the car window.
Gu Nianzhi was so scared that she couldn’t help screaming again.
She was most afraid of reptiles like these. It was a subconscious, animalistic disgust that she couldn’t control.
She hadn’t encountered so many snakes the last time she was in the alps.
She hadn’t expected to meet her “nemesis” on this small island this time.
Qin Zhining opened the car door with a big smile on his face. “I know where this place is.”
Gu Nianzhi, “…”
He picked up the two colorful strands of “rime” and raised his eyebrows. “This is the famous Snake Island on the Caribbean Sea.”
The Caribbean Sea?
So this was the Caribbean Sea?
Gu Nianzhi’s eyes twitched uncontrollably.
So within 15 minutes, she had arrived at the Snake Island on the Caribbean Sea from the intersection of the Third Ring Road in the imperial capital?
Was this advanced technology?
Was this person trying to fool her?
Besides, how was it that she had never heard of a snake island on the Caribbean Sea before?
Qin Zhining held up the seven inches of the two snakes and showed them to Gu Nianzhi. He tried to scare her, “This is the world’s most poisonous Golden Lancehead. If you run around again and get bitten by them, even your bones will melt.”
Gu Nianzhi shuddered and looked up. Her face was paler than snow, and her eyes seemed even darker in contrast. Her lips were as red as fire, and her beauty was beyond compare.
Qin Zhining was slightly taken aback. No wonder his cousin He Zhichu had risked his life to look for her. Having once possessed such a beauty, how could he be willing to give her up?
However, on second thought, Gu Nianzhi wasn’t this beautiful when she had gone missing at the age of 12.
And he heard that her cousin had already given her away…
What was he thinking?
Was he out of his mind?
Qin Zhining shook his head and stopped trying to figure out He Zhichu’s intentions. However, he also stopped trying to scare Gu Nianzhi. “This kind of snake tastes good. We’ll roast it later.”
“Hurry up and take it away! Don’t let me see it again!” Gu Nianzhi’s face was pale as she curled herself up even tighter.
Qin Zhining shrugged. Seeing that it was already late, he stopped teasing Gu Nianzhi and took the snake to the beach to dissect and clean it.
After the Sun had set, he started a bonfire in front of the car. He put the two snakes on a small bamboo stick after they had been skinned and roasted them over the fire.
The sky was getting dark, and it was getting cold.
Gu Nianzhi wrapped herself into a ball with a small blanket.
Qin Zhining finished roasting the snake and loudly called to Gu Nianzhi, “Are you going to eat it or not? It’s very fragrant, and I have barbecue sauce in my car. If you don’t eat it, you’ll regret it!”
Gu Nianzhi felt dizzy just thinking about the snake. She had been nervous all day, so she wasn’t hungry and didn’t feel like eating.
She said sullenly, “You can eat it yourself. I’m sleepy, I’m going to sleep.”
She lay down in the back seat of the car, wrapped in a blanket. She counted the stars outside the car and gradually fell asleep.
Qin Zhining ate one and a half snakes, and cut the remaining half into small pieces. He put them in a small bag he found in the car and left it for Gu Nianzhi to eat when she woke.
He sat alone in front of the bonfire, thinking about his actions today. He felt that the malfunction was inexplicable.
He was supposed to return to his destination in a few seconds, but the magnetic field suddenly went out of control. Not only did it cause all of their electrical equipment to malfunction, but it also caused them to lose all of their power.
The car and cell phone battery were completely drained.
What the hell went wrong?
Qin Zhining turned around to look at the car. This Gu Nianzhi was trusting enough to fall asleep wrapped in a blanket.
He sat silently in front of the bonfire for the entire night. It was only when dawn had almost come and the bonfire had almost died down by itself that he stepped out the remaining sparks. They couldn’t just sit around and wait for death. They had to think of a way to notify others.
Or they could save themselves.
Gu Nianzhi was woken by her hunger.
The island in the early morning was still between night and day. The morning light climbed up from the surface of the sea to the blue sky, dyeing the moon-white sky red in an instant.
In the next moment, a red sun shot out, dispersing the morning glow that filled the sky.
The sky was pure blue and gold. It was like Van Gogh’s famous painting, “Sunflowers,” bursting with vitality.
Gu Nianzhi sat up in the back seat of the car and happened to see the sunrise. She was so surprised that she almost forgot about her hunger.
When the Sun had completely risen, she clutched her stomach and pushed the door open to get out of the car.
She saw that the bonfire in front of Qin Zhining had been extinguished, and the roasted snake meat had disappeared without a trace. Only the remains of the snake were scattered on the ground.
It was obvious that someone had eaten it all.
Gu Nianzhi felt so wronged.
Even though she had said she wouldn’t eat it last night, it didn’t mean that she wouldn’t eat it today…
What kind of kidnapper was this? Didn’t he even have the common sense that a hostage needed food to survive?
How could he use her for extortion if she starved to death?
Gu Nianzhi rolled her eyes at Qin Zhining.
Qin Zhining happened to turn around slowly and met her gaze. He was amused by the expression on her face.
“You must be hungry,” Qin Zhining stood up and giggled, “It’s a pity that you didn’t get to eat yesterday’s delicacy. The Golden Lancehead is not any ordinary delicacy. Did you know that in our four-star Michelin restaurant, this kind of snake meat is in high demand but has nearly no supply?”
Even customers had to bring their own snake meat to be processed. The restaurant did not provide this kind of snake meat.
Gu Nianzhi looked coldly at Qin Zhining. “Really? Then if you sell this kind of snake meat to the restaurant, what’s the price?”
“It is worth at least its weight in gold,” Qin Zhining laughed annoyingly. “Are you regretting it now? What a pity, there’s no medicine for regret in this world.”
Gu Nianzhi stretched out her hand without hesitation. “Me, Golden Lancehead, pay up.”
Qin Zhining, “! ! !”
“… Are you crazy? Why should I pay you?” Qin Zhining wondered if Gu Nianzhi was out of her mind. How dare she ask him for money!
“Among the two snakes you got yesterday, was one of them not meant for me to eat?” Gu Nianzhi activated her lawyer mode.
Qin Zhining was slightly startled, “Yes, but…”
Gu Nianzhi interrupted him. “Then did you eat my share?”
“Yes, but…”
“So you ate my food. I won’t hold you accountable for unlawfully taking my possessions. You can pay me its market price.” Gu Nianzhi waved her outstretched hand “… Hurry up and pay.”
Qin Zhining was so confused by Gu Nianzhi that he came to his senses only after he pulled out his wallet.
He angrily stuffed his wallet back and turned to open the car door in front of him. He took out the half a bag of roasted snake meat that he had left for Gu Nianzhi yesterday and threw it at her, “Who ate your share?! I asked you to eat it, but you didn’t want it, and now you’re pestering me again!”
