Hello, Mr. Major General - Chapter 1492
Chapter 1492: Biological Father Indeed
He Zhichu looked at his watch. It was almost midnight.
She couldn’t wait?
“Where is Miss Gu now?”
“She’s already downstairs in the living room.” The orderly stepped aside. He Zhichu flew past him and blew up a gust of wind.
Coming down the spiral staircase, he saw Gu Nianzhi dragging her suitcase.
Her long hair was tied into a ponytail and draped over her back. She wore an ordinary white t-shirt, jeans, and white sneakers. She looked as fresh and youthful as a college student.
She was only in her second and third year of college.
A few orderly guards blocked her at the door and prevented her from going out.
Gu Nianzhi was trying to reason with them.
“… General He personally promised to let me leave. You can call him and ask! Why must you send someone up? What a waste of time!”
“… He’s been gone for so long but I still haven’t heard back. Did you do it on purpose?”
“I’m telling you, you’re restricting my freedom!”
Her crisp voice was tinged with annoyance. It was pleasant to hear, but it also gave him a headache.
He Zhichu found it amusing.
Not everyone could get into He Chengjian’s study.
The orderly downstairs was dismayed by Gu Nianzhi’s scolding. He almost couldn’t take it anymore.
Seeing He Zhichu come over, he quickly said, “Young Master He is here. Miss Gu, tell Young Master He.”
They put away their guns and returned to their posts.
Gu Nianzhi turned around and gave him a big smile, as if she had seen her savior. “Professor He, you’re finally here. You heard it with your own ears in the study.”
He Zhichu bent down and helped her carry her suitcase. “Go back and stay for the night. We’ll leave tomorrow.”
“But…” Gu Nianzhi blinked and saw that He Zhichu had already carried her suitcase up the stairs. She quickly followed him and said anxiously, “Professor He, no matter whether I leave early or late, I’ll still leave. What’s the point?”
“It’s only one night.” He Zhichu closed his eyes and stopped at the stairs. He turned around and said, “Stay one more night and I’ll get you your lawyer’s license.”
“Huh?!” Gu Nianzhi’s eyes lit up. “Really?!”
He Chengjian had only promised to get her an ID card, passport, and proof of her education since she was a child. He had specifically said that he wouldn’t get her a lawyer’s license and that she would have to take the test again.
Although Gu Nianzhi wasn’t afraid of the exam, the problem was that she had just checked. The law exam here only took place once every two years, in July.
She had only taken the exam once in July this year, so if she wanted to take the exam herself, she would have to wait another two years..
When she returned to her room to check the time, she realized that she had been set up by He Chengjian.
If she could only take the exam for a lawyer’s license after two years, then she wouldn’t be able to appear in court as a lawyer for the next two years. At most, she would be an intern working in a law firm. However, how could she be able to do well in such a short period of time and make a name for herself?
At that time, she had been so angry that she had packed her simple luggage in a fit of anger and planned to leave the He family home overnight.
She hadn’t only been angered by her own mother, but she had also been angered by He Chengjian. Why did she have to endure all this?!
She hadn’t expected He Zhichu to immediately realize why she had insisted on leaving so late at night and immediately grant her wish.
Gu Nianzhi beamed. “Professor He, I knew you’re the best.”
He Zhichu looked at her with a half-hearted smile. “I’m not a professor anymore.”
“… Young Master He is the best.” Gu Nianzhi beamed.
Even though He Zhichu wasn’t satisfied with this title, it was much better than the distant “Professor He”.
He carried his luggage upstairs and said, “You can stay here for the night. I’ll get someone to get you all sorts of documents. You can leave tomorrow afternoon at the earliest, okay?”
Gu Nianzhi had been most worried that He Zhichu would stop her.
Now that he had let her go, she felt more at ease.
Gu Nianzhi smiled and followed He Zhichu back to her room on the third floor. He Zhichu put her luggage back. “It’s late. Have some good rest.”
“Young Master He, you’re not mad at me, are you?” Gu Nianzhi moved closer to him and carefully checked his expression.
“So what if I’m mad? Will you stay?” He Zhichu looked at her without batting an eye and caressed her high ponytail.
Gu Nianzhi smiled and shook her head. She said sincerely, “Young Master He, I’m planning to leave the He family. I’m not deliberately retreating to advance, nor am I acting on a whim. I really want to live on my own.”
After a pause, Gu Nianzhi’s voice became low. It was no longer loud and clear, but had a tinge of coquettish and bashful undertones.
“… Actually, Wen Shouyi is right. “I’ve always lived under your protection, with Major General Huo over there and you over here. “I’m grateful to you, but your status is too high. For me, standing too high gives me an unrealistic feeling
“Young Master He, let me have a down-to-earth experience of an ordinary person’s life. My heart is in emotional turmoil, and I want to leave you guys to calm down. I’m not afraid to tell you that ever since I found out that Mrs. Qin was my biological mother, I wished I was a real orphan. — it’s better not to have such a mother.” Gu Nianzhi spoke frankly about her feelings.
“I can’t even be an orphan now.” She smiled bitterly. “I really don’t want to see her, so let me go. If I stay here I’ll make things difficult for you and Uncle He. What’s the point?”
There were some things that Huo Shaoheng might not be able to say, such as how he felt about his own mother, but He Zhichu was able to say them naturally.
He Zhichu looked at her emotionally. “Nianzhi, I’m glad you told me this.”
He opened his arms and hugged Gu Nianzhi. “Don’t feel burdened. I definitely won’t like someone you don’t like, even if she saved my life.”
Gu Nianzhi was shocked. “Miss Qin really knows medicology?”
He Zhichu was amused by her reaction and scratched her delicate little nose. “Miss Qin is indeed a genius in medicine.”
He thought about it and decided to tell Gu Nianzhi, “… Your father, Gu Xiangwen, is an absolute genius, but even he praises Miss Qin’s medical attainments.”
“Your father’s fondness for Ms. Qin came from an academic exchange.” He Zhichu implicitly mentioned the history between Gu Xiangwen and Qin Yaoguang to Gu Nianzhi.
Gu Nianzhi remembered that Qin Yaoguang had personally said that she had never been married and had never loved anyone else. She only loved He Chengjian, and her heart felt even more stifled.
She pursed her lips and said disdainfully, “Then my father’s taste is really bad.”
He Zhichu patted her shoulders. “Alright, your father doesn’t really have a good eye for women, but as a scientific genius, it’s already a miracle that he had such a relationship.”
Such a person should have been married to his lab for the rest of his life.
He didn’t want to talk about Gu Xiangwen anymore, so he changed the topic. “Go to bed early. You’ll be leaving tomorrow. What gift do you want?”
Gu Nianzhi recalled that He Chengjian had once said that her father was involved in the murder case, and He Zhichu’s attitude was even more strange when he mentioned Gu Xiangwen.
She tugged at the corner of He Zhichu’s shirt. “Young Master He, why do you always hesitate to speak to my father? Do you dislike him so much? Is it because he’s involved in the murder case?”
“Young Master He, you don’t have to hide it. Tell me about it.”
Gu Nianzhi looked at He Zhichu pitifully.
He Zhichu was speechless.
He knew that he couldn’t hide it for long, but he couldn’t bear to tell Gu Nianzhi the truth.
He didn’t know how to speak.
Gu Nianzhi’s heart jumped when she saw He Zhichu hesitate.
She was worried that her father, Gu Xiangwen, was the same as Qin Yaoguang.
Neither of them treated her as their own daughter, so she didn’t want to hear it anymore. They said listlessly, “I’m tired, Young Master He. See you tomorrow.”
Before He Zhichu could say anything, they had already pushed him out of the room.
The door closed in front of He Zhichu, and He Zhichu breathed a sigh of relief.
Gu Nianzhi was really understanding, He Zhichu thought. Knowing that it would be difficult for him to speak up, she didn’t ask anymore.
..
Gu Nianzhi slept very deeply that night. When she woke up in the morning, it was almost noon.
She stretched herself and sat up from the bed. Looking at the low-key and luxurious bedroom, she smiled and let out a long sigh.
She got up to wash up and change. She tidied up her suitcase and was about to stand up when she heard someone knocking on the door.
Gu Nianzhi opened the video call and saw He Zhichu standing outside the door with a translucent document bag in his hand.
She opened the door quickly and smiled. “Young Master He, you’re so efficient. Is It My Id?”
He Zhichu handed her the translucent document bag and said, “Your ID, passport, proof of education, diploma, degree, and lawyer’s license are all in there. It’s exactly the same as when you lived over there.”
“It’s not forged, is it?” Gu Nianzhi expressed her concern on purpose.
“Of course not. The documents are all real. Of course, the experience is fake.” He Zhichu knew her little trick. “It’s the same as your ID over there.”
Gu Nianzhi opened the document bag and took out the things inside to check them one by one.
Sure enough, even the ID card number was exactly the same as the one over there.
She kissed her own ID card and smiled. “Young Master He is indeed amazing. You got all of this done so fast that even Major General Huo might not be able to do it.”
It would take at least a month to complete the entire set of things on the other side.
He Zhichu, on the other hand, managed to do it in just one morning.
He Zhichu smiled. “Our side is different from the other side. The technology here is more advanced, and all the systems are connected to the internet. It’s very easy to add and change them.”
Gu Nianzhi rolled her eyes and said sweetly, “Is that so? That’s great. I like such advanced internet systems.”
He Zhichu saw that she had taken out her ID and didn’t look inside the folder anymore. He coughed. “There’s something else in there.”
Gu Nianzhi replied with an “Oh.” She reached out and took out a black card and an ordinary Huaxia Empire’s Bank card.
He Zhichu’s ears turned red, but he still said calmly, “You have to use money to live alone. The black card has no limit. There’s 100,000 yuan in the Huaxia Empire card. You can use it first.”
Gu Nianzhi was speechless. If she had so much money in her hands, what was the point of going out?
Besides, the black card was like a GPS device. As long as she used it, He Zhichu would know where it was and what she had bought.
Gu Nianzhi stuffed the black card back into He Zhichu’s hand and frowned. “There’s no need for the black card. Why don’t you give me some cash?”
He Zhichu raised an eyebrow. “Cash? How do you use it? Let me tell you, cash doesn’t wprk here. All purchases are virtual.”
Gu Nianzhi: “…”
He Zhichu stared at Gu Nianzhi for a while until she turned her head away in embarrassment. He Zhichu then reached out to her. “Give me your phone.”
Gu Nianzhi placed the phone in He Zhichu’s hand.
He Zhichu looked at it and found that she had deleted his GPS app. He didn’t make it clear. He called her directly and added an unlimited data plan. He also added online banking to her Huaxia Empire card and installed the online payment system. He said, “That’s enough. I know you think the black card has too much money. This Huaxia Empire card only has 100,000 yuan in it. Take it and rent a room. It should be enough for six months of your living expenses. Is this enough for you to find a job in six months?”
Gu Nianzhi nodded repeatedly. He Zhichu was really thoughtful. She quickly said, “That’s enough, that’s enough. When I’ve saved enough money, I’ll buy you a big present!”
He Zhichu wasn’t short of money, but he would still be happy if Gu Nianzhi could think of buying him a present when she earned money.
Huo Shaoheng had never enjoyed such treatment before… right?
He Zhichu was delighted. He went back to his room to find the book “Quantum Physics for Cereus” and gave it to her. He said, “This was your father’s birthday present to you on your sixth birthday.”
Gu Nianzhi: “…”
He was really her father. He knew she knew nothing about physics, yet he still wanted to use such a book to provoke her.
..
After lunch, Gu Nianzhi pulled her suitcase and put her sunglasses on the rack. She waved cheerfully at He Zhichu and left the He family’s house.
He Zhichu stood on the balcony on the second floor and watched Gu Nianzhi drag her suitcase away. He suddenly felt like an “empty nest old man”.
The child had grown up and grown wings. Look at how fast she was flying…
The empty nest old man watched with reluctance as Gu Nianzhi got into a car at the door.
He Chengjian walked over and stood beside him. He whispered, “If Nianzhi had grown up on our side, she would be at the age to go to college.”
“Okay, just think of it as making up for our shortcomings.” He Zhichu crossed his arms. “Dad, I haven’t been to the military for a long time, and I’m going to be busy soon. You should rest well and don’t tire yourself out.”
“I know, I’ll take good care of myself.” He Chengjian smiled. “With you to share my worries, my illness will heal faster.”
He Zhichu turned around to look at HeChengjian. Seeing that his complexion was indeed much better than it was yesterday, he nodded slightly. “Then I’ll go to the military.”
He asked again, “Where’s Qin Zhining? Has the order been given?”
“Yes, that car was driven by Qin zhining. He will first settle down with Nianzhi, and then keep a lower profile. In the future, he will masquerade as her cousin.” He Chengjian arranged everything very carefully.
He Zhichu was also at ease with Qin Zhining. “Thanks for the trouble, cousin. I’ll treat him to a meal when we settle down.”
..
Gu Nianzhi got into Qin Zhining’s car and sat directly in the passenger seat.
Qin Zhining wanted to be Gu Nianzhi’s bodyguard now. Although he didn’t like her much, he wasn’t that unhappy anymore.
He asked plainly, “Where are we going?”
Gu Nianzhi waved her phone at him. “To the airport.”
“The airport?!” Qin Zhining was stunned. “Didn’t you want to rent a house and look for a job? Why are you going to the airport?”
“I want to rent a house and look for a job.” Gu Nianzhi raised her chin. “But I’m not renting a house and looking for a job in the capital.”
The He family was too powerful in the capital, and they were too close to Qin Yaoguang. Gu Nianzhi didn’t want to breathe the same smog as her.
“Then where are you going?” Qin Zhining was speechless for a long time. He turned the steering wheel and got on the road to the airport highway.
Gu Nianzhi took out her phone and began to book a flight.
There were a lot of flights, one every half an hour, from the capital to C City.
Gu Nianzhi asked Qin Zhining for his ID number and quickly booked two tickets. She winked at him and said slyly, “Let’s go to C City.”
