Hello, Mr. Major General - Chapter 1746
Chapter 1746: One Of The “Very Few”
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Lu Jin blinked his eyes and stretched out his arm, stopping in front of Gu Nianzhi. He did not seem to realize what Gu Nianzhi was asking.
Gu Nianzhi repeated, “Dad, did you already know who Wen Shouyi was?”
What she meant was, did Lu Jin already know who Wen Shouyi’s biological mother was.
Lu Jin had already told Gu Nianzhi during the DNA test that Wen Shouyi was Wen Dayou’s biological daughter and not Liang Meili’s.
How could an adopted child be related to the adoptive father?
This result was already shocking enough, but there were even more shocking things waiting for Gu Nianzhi in court today.
To be honest, Gu Nianzhi had thought that Wen Shouyi was the illegitimate daughter of a certain woman in the Qin family, but she had never thought that Wen Shouyi would be Qin Yaoguang’s illegitimate daughter!
Not only did the two of them not look alike at all, but Qin Yaoguang had always been proud of herself and had only fallen in love with He Chengjian for so many years.
She had been able to hold out for so long and finally married He Chengjian after Qin Suwen had passed away more than ten years ago. She had relied on this pure persistence and waiting.
However, this perseverance and waiting had become a complete joke in front of Wen Shouyi, the “illegitimate daughter”.
Gu Nianzhi pursed her lips. Her dark jade-like eyes stared at Lu Jin without moving. She did not allow him to dodge, nor did she allow him to talk about himself.
Huo Shaoheng said leisurely, “… Would Uncle know?”
Lu Jin only regained his senses when he heard Huo Shaoheng’s voice. He immediately grabbed Gu Nianzhi’s arm and said nervously, “Nianzhi, I didn’t know who Wen Shouyi’s biological mother was!”
“You think I’d believe that?” Gu Nianzhi pushed Lu Jin’s hand away and took a step back. She was standing right next to Huo Shaoheng, who was standing diagonally behind her.
The handsome man and beautiful woman stood together formed a beautiful scenery, illuminating the dark living room at dusk.
Lu Jin felt as if his heart had been scratched by a kitten’s paw. It hurt, but it could also be bleeding, but he couldn’t get angry at her.
Lu Jin took a deep breath, scratched his head, and started to explain. “Nianzhi, be reasonable. How would I know who Wen Shouyi’s biological mother was?”
“I also helped you test her direct relatives with Wen Dayou and Liang Meili this time, and only then did I know that she wasn’t adopted, but was Wen Dayou’s child from an affair. Where could I test her mother’s DNA?!”
This logic seemed very strong.
Gu Nianzhi tilted her head and asked in confusion, “Really? You didn’t know?”
“Wen Shouyi was the gardener’s adopted daughter. Why would I think of anywhere else? There’s no reason as to why would I want to test her DNA?” Lu Jin looked at Gu Nianzhi with a wronged expression, “From the beginning to the end, she was only the gardener’s adopted daughter to me. I never paid special attention to her.”
“But she later took my place and entered the He family…” Gu Nianzhi crossed her arms and clapped with one foot on the ground. She looked aloof.
Lu Jin lowered his head like a child who had done something wrong in front of his only daughter and confessed, “At that time, I was wanted. I changed my identity and hid with Boss Lu. As for the He family, we only paid attention to He Chengjian and He Zhichu. We never paid attention to her.”
“She’s different from you.”
From the age of six to twelve, Gu Nianzhi had grown up under the meticulous care of the He family. She was the little princess of the He family. The servants also knew that she was He Zhichu’s fiancée and the future mistress of the He family, so they respected her very much.
Gu Nianzhi was by He Zhichu’s side, and he took care of her carefully.
Wen Shouyi had entered the He family home after Gu Nianzhi’s disappearance. She was already 18 years old, she was more like a nanny beside He Zhichu as she took care of the chores around him.
Therefore, Wen Shouyi took care of He Zhichu carefully when she was in the He family.
From this, it could be seen that Wen Shouyi’s position in the He family was completely different from Gu Nianzhi’s position in the He family at that time.
It was understandable that Lu Jin did not pay too much attention to a “nanny”.
Moreover, He Chengjian had also sent people to monitor Wen Shouyi at that time. On one hand, he was worried about Wen Shouyi and wanted to examine her. On the other hand, he was also protecting He Zhichu.
Gu Nianzhi thought about Lu Jin’s explanation and had to admit what he said made a lot of sense.
“In that case, you only found out today that Wen Shouyi’s mother might be Qin Yaoguang?” Gu Nianzhi’s face was stern as she handed Lu Jin a few strands of Qin Yaoguang’s hair that she had left behind, “Then you could test it again. These are Qin Yaoguang’s hair.”
Lu Jin nodded and quickly took the hair. He smiled fawningly and said, “I would look into it right away! Immediately!”
Gu Nianzhi couldn’t bear to see Lu Jin like this.
She put down her arms and mumbled, “Dad, my attitude just now wasn’t the best. Please scold me…”
“No, no, you were fine. It was dad’s fault…” Lu Jin was worried to death. “Nianzhi, be good. You didn’t do anything wrong. Don’t apologize. My daughter won’t do anything wrong…”
At this moment, he was somewhat glad that Gu Nianzhi didn’t grow up by the side of this crazy father who spoiled his daughter. Otherwise, he really wouldn’t know how much she would have been spoiled…
Gu Nianzhi seemed to have heard his thoughts. She glanced at him from the corner of her eyes, snorted twice, and wrapped her arms around Lu Jin’s. She beamed and said, “I only want my father to stand on my side indiscriminately. Father, I’ll always love you the most!”
Gu Nianzhi’s sweet words had always been very powerful.
Even Huo Shaoheng couldn’t handle it sometimes.
Moreover, it was Lu Jin, who had always doted on his daughter for her good.
When he left Gu Nianzhi’s room and went back to his lab to do the test, his face was flushed, as if he had drunk 150 grams of Moutai…
After Lu Jin left, Gu Nianzhi closed the door and saw Huo Shaoheng standing next to her.
She suddenly felt tired and leaned against the door.
Huo Shaoheng looked at her for a while before walking over and supported the back of her neck with one hand. He wrapped his other hand around her waist and lowered his head to kiss her.
Gu Nianzhi was pressed tightly into his warm and strong embrace, drawing strength from his kiss.
Huo Shaoheng was unusually hard, but his lips were very soft. When they kissed, the touch of their lips could almost make one’s soul tremble.
After giving her a few hard kisses, Huo Shaoheng carried her in his arms and walked to the sofa to sit down. He held her in his arms and half-pressed her against his body. He held the side of her face with one hand and leaned against her head. As he spoke, he pecked her cheek gently.
“… Did you feel bad?” He whispered in her ear.
“Felt bad about what?” Gu Nianzhi looked at him in confusion.
Huo Shaoheng said, “… When you know that your mother treats Wen Shouyi better than you.”
They were both her daughters, why would she favor one child over the other?
Gu Nianzhi’s eyes were half-closed, and her soft voice was as soft as a whisper, “… A little.”
She didn’t care about Qin Yaoguang’s “motherly love” but when she knew that she was the one who had been abandoned, she couldn’t remain calm.
Only Huo Shaoheng could sense the subtle changes in her emotions.
“Don’t be sad, you have me,” Huo Shaoheng kissed her lips little by little. His kiss was like a dragonfly skimming the water, or a feather gently flapping in the breeze, comforting Gu Nianzhi’s hurt feelings.
Gu Nianzhi wrapped her arms around Huo Shaoheng’s neck and whispered, “Actually, I don’t understand why she wanted to replace me with Wen Shouyi. I don’t believe a word of it. She wanted Wen Shouyi to replace me for Wen Shouyi’s good.”
“I’m also her biological daughter. She doesn’t like me, but the He family liked me and treated me well. Even from a profit point of view, she shouldn’t have let Wen Shouyi replace me.”
Huo Shaoheng thought for a moment, “… Do you mean that Qin Yaoguang might have other intentions?”
Gu Nianzhi nodded.
Huo Shaoheng slowly sat up and pulled Gu Nianzhi up as well.
Gu Nianzhi felt as if she had no bones at all. As soon as he pulled her up, she lazily went from lying on the sofa to lying on Huo Shaoheng’s lap.
His legs were as hard as steel. Gu Nianzhi did not feel comfortable lying on them, but she felt more at ease than lying on the armrest of the sofa.
Huo Shaoheng caressed her hair and started to think as well.
Gu Nianzhi slowly explained her analysis, “The Qin Yaoguang I knew is an extremely selfish person. The most selfless thing she had ever done in her life was probably her love for Major General He and saving He Zhichu.”
Huo Shaoheng shook his head, “That’s not selfless. Think about what kind of person Major General He was. Qin Yaoguang saved He Zhichu and look at how much the Qin family has benefited from the He family. Do you think she saved him selflessly? I’m afraid He Zhichu himself doesn’t think so.”
She suddenly opened her eyes. Her dark jade-like pupils were extremely dark but also extremely bright, “Didn’t that mean that Qin Yaoguang is an extremely selfish person? She saved He Zhichu because she wanted Major General He to see her in a different light and would never be able to drive her away from him?”
Huo Shaoheng nodded and ran his other hand through Gu Nianzhi’s hair, “From a man’s point of view, Qin Yaoguang was indeed very capable. She had high status, ability, and medical skills. She could even save Major General He’s only son.”
“She’s not clingy and doesn’t ask for anything in return. She was willing to do anything to help him when he needed her. Not to mention, she even gave birth to a daughter to save his son.”
“Few men could resist a woman like her. Even if they don’t like her, it doesn’t stop them from being friends.”
Gu Nianzhi couldn’t help rolling her eyes when she heard Huo Shaoheng’s conclusion, “You think Qin Yaoguang is good too?!”
“Of course I don’t.” Huo Shaoheng saw that she was about to go crazy, so he calmly “smoothed out” her hair, “I said that very few men could resist her, and I happened to be one of the ‘very few’.”
Gu Nianzhi wanted to laugh again. Her eyes were curved, and she said with a smile, “You know how to flatter yourself. What I want to say was that Qin Yaoguang successfully deflected everyone’s focus.”
“Everyone seemed to have subconsciously thought that Qin Yaoguang ordered Wen Dayou and Liang Meili to kidnap me because of her other daughter, Wen Shouyi.”
“But my focus was not on whether Qin Yaoguang was biased or not. Instead, I had a feeling that she ordered Wen Dayou and Liang Meili to kidnap me eight years ago from the He family for some other purpose.”
“She said she wanted Wen Shouyi to replace me, but she was just trying to trick the Wen couple.”
Huo Shaoheng’s hand paused, “She had another motive?”
“Definitely,” Gu Nianzhi nodded affirmatively. “Do you think my father knew the real reason why Qin Yaoguang ordered someone to kidnap me eight years ago?”
