Even Huo Shaoheng heard Gu Nianzhi's words outside the ward and secretly applauded.
Indeed, the purpose of military personnel's wills is to give them the opportunity to handle their private affairs.
As for official matters, they should be clearly explained before departure, and it is impossible to leave them in the will and continue to deal with them.
In the ward, Gu Nianzhi said again: "Secondly, although I have never met Uncle Huo, judging from how he handles the people and things around him, he is a very cautious person. I am not 100% sure. He won’t take action.”
This is probably the main difference between Huo Guanyuan and Huo Shaoheng.
For Huo Shaoheng, he prefers taking risks. As long as there is a 50% chance, he will take action and will not wait for 100%.
"... Such a cautious person will not miss any private matters that need to be dealt with. So I speculate that his will contains a very complete arrangement of how to deal with Luo Xinxue and Luo Jialan's mother and daughter."
As Gu Nianzhi spoke, he kept a close eye on Huo Xuenong's words and deeds. Seeing his different expression, he knew that he had guessed correctly.
She became more confident and said with a smile: "Thirdly, Mr. Huo got Uncle Huo's will but kept it secret, so I speculate that there is something unfavorable to Mr. Huo in it."
Huo Xuenong's pupils suddenly shrank.
Unexpectedly, Gu Nianzhi, who had neither seen the will nor knew Huo Guanyuan, could guess almost everything about the contents of his will just by guessing!
Gu Nianzhi thought quickly, "What is that content that is not good for Mr. Huo? So bad that he could hide this will for seventeen years?"
"Haha, if you think so, being a lawyer is really unworthy of your talent. You should write novels. Maybe you have become famous and have a family." Huo Xuenong finally spoke.
As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the ward was pushed open, and Zhang Baochen appeared at the door of the ward with his son Zhang Wenjie and daughter Zhang Wenna.
He was holding a fruit basket and a food box in one hand. Standing at the door and seeing so many people in the ward, he felt a little stupid.
Gu Nianzhi was thinking about what kind of shameful private matters could make Huo Xuenong refuse to take out his will.
When she saw the Zhang family, she felt so happy that she suddenly thought that this shameful private matter must be related to the Zhang family, right? !
Gu Nianzhi immediately turned around and asked, "Eh? Why are you here? What are you doing here?"
Zhang Wenjie was a little excited when he saw Gu Nianzhi, and immediately said: "Miss Gu? You are here too. My grandfather asked us to come. We also need to bring our ID cards and bank accounts. Did my grandfather also ask you to come?"
Gu Nianzhi: "..."
She immediately understood that Mr. Huo was planning to change the beneficiary of the trust fund immediately.
If they hadn't taken the initiative and froze the trust fund, they might have succeeded...
Gu Nianzhi immediately turned around and said to Huo Xuenong with a smile: "The content in Uncle Huo's will that is unfavorable to Mr. Huo must be related to the Zhang family, right?"
Huo Xuenong tried his best to endure it, not wanting to show his uncomfortable expression, but his hands holding the quilt tightly revealed his true state of mind.
Gu Nianzhi's eyes moved to the back of his hand, where veins were exposed, like old tree bark, and he nodded, "... It seems that I guessed it right again."
"You're right!" Huo Xuenong said in a rough voice, and finally couldn't help but utter a curse word.
"Isn't it?" Gu Nianzhi put his hands behind his back, tilted his head, and said with a smile, "It seems that Uncle Huo's will should have three parts."
"One, the placement of Luo Xinxue, Luo Jialan and her daughter."
"Second, the distribution of one's own inheritance."
"Three, the treatment of Zhang Feng."
After Gu Nianzhi said three words, Huo Xuenong's body suddenly stiffened, and then it seemed as if someone had taken all the strength out of his body. Then he fell limply on the bed and closed his eyes.
Zhang Baochen was so frightened that he threw away the fruit basket and food box in his hand and rushed over quickly, "Dad! Dad! What's wrong with you?! Don't scare us?!"
Zhang Wenjie and Zhang Wenna were also startled, and hurriedly walked over and stood in front of Huo Xuenong's bed, anxiously asking about Huo Xuenong's condition.
Luo Jialan and Cai Shengnan looked at each other, quietly left Huo Xuenong's bed and walked towards the door of the ward.
When Xie Shenxing's two staff members saw three more people coming into the ward, they hurriedly protected him.
However, the three staff members of the Special Operations Department blocked the door of the ward and did not allow anyone to leave.
Gu Nianzhi stood next to Xie Shenxing, shook his head with a smile, looked at the three members of the Zhang family who were crying and shouting in front of Huo Xuenong's bed, and said, "Where are you singing a big opera? Mr. Huo is just tired. He closes his eyes to rest. How about you?" Is that an exaggeration?"
Zhang Baochen turned back angrily, with wet tears on his face, and said loudly: "My father fainted when he was already old, and you still have to force him?! What's the matter, can't we wait until he gets better?!"
Gu Nianzhi spread his hands and said, "Mr. Zhang, this is the high-end ward of the Imperial Military General Hospital. It has complete instruments and facilities, which are enough to ensure Mr. Huo's health requirements. You see, the instruments over there are not responding at all, which is enough. It means that Mr. Huo's heart rate is normal, his blood pressure is normal, and his breathing rate is healthy and strong, so why are you crying? Don't you feel bad luck?"
Zhang Baochen was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at the instruments beside the hospital bed. Sure enough, everything was normal.
Looking at Huo Xuenong again, you can clearly see the eyes under his eyelids moving rapidly.
Sure enough, I didn't really faint.
Zhang Baochen was a little surprised and said sarcastically: "Dad, are you tired? If you are, go to bed early and I will invite these people out."
Huo Xuenong did not faint. He wanted to pretend to be sick just like at home, but he made a mistake. He didn't expect that this was a hospital, and it was a high-end ward with the best facilities. If he got sick again, he would be detected by instruments in minutes, and a team of doctors would Come see him immediately.
Originally, he wanted to rely on the fact that he was an old man and had a little bit of various geriatric diseases. No one could say that he was not sick.
When he met a more serious Gu Nianzhi, he was really embarrassed!
Huo Xuenong opened his eyes, his expression almost ferocious.
He cast his eyes on Gu Nianzhi and said through gritted teeth, "Thank you so much. I'm tired now. Can you go out?"
Gu Nianzhi smiled and nodded, "We'll leave after I finish speaking."
She took a step forward, looked at Zhang Baochen, and asked, "Mr. Zhang, how old are you?"
"... Forty-seven, what's wrong?" Zhang Baochen looked at Huo Xuenong blankly, "Dad, what are you talking about?"
"Tsk, tsk, so when Uncle Huo had an accident, you were already thirty years old? At that time, you hadn't returned to the Huo family yet, right?"
Zhang Baochen shook his head, "I only returned to my father after my eldest brother passed away."
Gu Nianzhi thought for a moment, "Mr. Huo had an affair with Zhang Feng more than forty years ago. In this case, besides Mrs. Xie knowing about it, I think Uncle Huo should also know about it."
The corners of Huo Xuenong's eyes twitched almost imperceptibly and he looked away.
Gu Nianzhi looked at him steadily and said with a smile: "I understand. The part in Uncle Huo's will that is considered a shady private matter for Mr. Huo must be related to Zhang Feng."
"I speculate that Uncle Huo knew about Zhang Feng's inappropriate relationship with Mr. Huo from some source, but Mrs. Xie had already passed away at that time, so he didn't say anything and kept it secret."
"But in his will, he made some dispositions for Zhang Feng. What kind of dispositions were they?" Gu Nianzhi put his hand on his chin and said thoughtfully, "I guess Uncle Huo's character won't be very intense, it should be very... Implicitly, the most you can do is ask Zhang Feng to leave Mr. Huo and leave the Huo family, right?"
"But at that time, Mr. Huo was still on the rise of his career, and it might even be the most critical step."
"If Uncle Huo's will was published at that time, anyone with a discerning eye would know what happened at a glance."
"And the style problem is too serious for people like Mr. Huo."
"So Mr. Huo did not allow such things to tarnish his reputation and affect his promotion. Judging from the time, Mr. Huo was promoted to the Standing Committee of the Supreme Committee of the Military Ministry exactly after Uncle Huo's death."
"So Mr. Huo suppressed the will and watched calmly as Huo Guanyuan's widow Luo Xinxue accepted Huo Guanyuan's trust fund and all other properties."
"Later, Luo Xinxue died suddenly, and Luo Jialan, a helpless orphan, became the first legal heir to the property. Mr. Huo knew that he had a better way to deal with the will."
As soon as Gu Nianzhi finished speaking, before she had time to confirm the authenticity of her statement to Huo Xuenong, she heard applause from the ward.
"Xiao Nianzhi, Xiao Nianzhi, I, Xie Shenxing, have never been convinced by many people in my life, but you are definitely one of the people who have convinced me!"
Xie Shenxing applauded Gu Nianzhi, looked at Huo Xuenong with disdain, turned around and took out a letter from the staff next to him, and waved it to everyone in the ward, "This is Huo Guanyuan's backup copy of his will. Found in a Swiss bank safe."
Luo Jialan's eyes suddenly widened and he said in surprise: "Swiss bank safe? My father still has a safe in a Swiss bank?!"
Good night, folks!
