Huo Shaoheng's expression did not change much, but Fan Jian, as his orderly for many years, still noticed that Huo Shaoheng was actually not in a good mood.
He quietly glanced at Huo Shaoheng in the rearview mirror.
It is common for people in their profession to go without sleep for several days, but the human body is not made of iron.
He could tell that Huo Shaoheng was still a little tired.
Huo Shaoheng supported his head with his hands and rested his elbows on the edge of the car window. Fan Jian could only see his side face. The line of his jaw was very strong and neat, but now it was a little tight, with a chilling air, exuding a strong "life" The momentum of "Keep no one near".
Fan Jian shrank his neck and did not dare to speak. He just drove the car very fast. It usually took him half an hour to drive, but this time he drove to the apartment complex where Gu Nianzhi lived in only fifteen minutes.
The car was parked in the parking lot, but Huo Shaoheng got in in no hurry.
He sat in the car, pondered silently, and finally called Gu Nianzhi.
"Nianzhi, have you finished taking a shower?" Huo Shaoheng asked nonchalantly. Just listening to his voice, you couldn't tell how he was feeling now.
Gu Nianzhi had just finished taking a shower, was tying up her hair, and was sitting in front of the dressing table making a facial mask.
She responded and said calmly: "Were you in a meeting just now?"
"Yeah." Huo Shaoheng closed his eyes, crossed his arms, and leaned back on the seat.
After a moment of silence, he said: "I have a temporary assignment, so the engagement party will be postponed for a month."
Gu Nianzhi's hand paused, and he quickly pretended to be relaxed and said, "Really? You have to pay attention to your safety. Also, since everyone is so busy, let's just cancel the engagement party."
Huo Shaoheng actually didn't care much about the engagement party.
He has already proposed, and the most important thing next is the wedding.
As for the engagement banquet, it was just to satisfy Mr. Xie's request and was treated as a dinner party.
Since we are treating guests to dinner, of course the host's family is the most important.
Huo Shaoheng really didn't regard himself and Gu Nianzhi as the protagonists of this banquet.
But what Gu Nianzhi said sounded resentful to Huo Shaoheng.
It seemed that He Zhichu was right. Gu Nianzhi was still unhappy
It turns out that she attaches great importance to this engagement party
Huo Shaoheng didn't say anything for a while. He opened the car window, lit a cigarette and started smoking.
After not sleeping for several days, he relied on cigarettes to stay awake.
In the parking lot late at night, the fireworks flickered between his fingers, just like Huo Shaoheng's deeply hidden thoughts.
Gu Nianzhi waited for a while and saw that Huo Shaoheng stopped talking. He thought he was busy again and hung up the phone.
Huo Shaoheng heard a beep coming from the Bluetooth headset and knew that Gu Nianzhi had hung up.
He didn't say anything and continued to smoke. After a while, he threw away the unfinished cigarette in his hand, opened the door and got out of the car.
From the elevator in the parking lot to the floor where Gu Nianzhi lived, Huo Shaoheng rang the doorbell.
It was Xiao Ye who came to open the door.
She saw through the peephole that it was Huo Shaoheng standing at the door. She was very surprised and hurriedly opened the door, "Master Huo, why are you still here? Aren't you going to sea?"
Huo Shaoheng told Xiao Ye that he was going to lead the team to sea.
Because when he left this time, the most worrying thing was Gu Nianzhi's safety.
He didn't want Gu Nianzhi to be in danger as soon as he left like last time.
So he rearranged a whole team of people for Gu Nianzhi to protect her, and at the same time asked Xiao Ye who was around Gu Nianzhi to be more cautious and not let Gu Nianzhi act alone.
Huo Shaoheng had a feeling that only by dragging the submarine back and confirming Gu Xiangwen's life or death would the actions against Gu Nianzhi stop.
He always believed that those people were interested in Gu Nianzhi because of Gu Xiangwen who was behind her.
As soon as Gu Xiangwen appears, no matter whether he is alive or dead, the other party should not continue to entangle him.
But Huo Shaoheng didn't want Gu Nianzhi to know about his going to sea.
So he winked at Xiao Ye and answered the question: "Where are you thinking about it?"
Xiao Ye understood and immediately mouthed in the direction of Gu Nianzhi's bedroom, "She's in the bedroom. There's nothing going on tonight, but Professor He made a phone call in the evening, which made her a little depressed."
As expected, Huo Shaoheng nodded and walked to Gu Nianzhi's bedroom.
He knocked at the door.
Gu Nianzhi's sweet and soft voice came from inside the door, "Is it Xiao Ye? The door is unlocked, come in."
Xiao Ye smiled at Huo Shaoheng's back and turned back to his room.
Huo Shaoheng put his hand on the doorknob of Gu Nianzhi's bedroom and pushed it down gently. The doorknob made a rattling sound. He pushed open the door of Gu Nianzhi's bedroom, walked in quietly, and then closed the door behind him.
Gu Nianzhi saw Huo Shaoheng in the three-sided half-length mirror on the dressing table and turned around in surprise, "Master Huo?! Why are you here?! Were you downstairs just now?!"
The two of them hung up the phone without saying a few words. It's been less than five minutes now, right
Huo Shaoheng took off his military cap and walked over.
Putting his military cap on Gu Nianzhi's dressing table, he bent down and originally wanted to kiss her face, but seeing the mask paper on her face, he just hugged her shoulders.
Gu Nianzhi had just taken a shower, and there was a faint rose fragrance on her body.
Huo Shaoheng sat down on the soft stool next to her, leaned back on the dressing table, lowered his eyes and said, "Time is very tight this time. The engagement party is a kindness of my cousin, and it is not good to cancel it."
Gu Nianzhi heard this and came to explain to her.
She smiled, looked at the mirror on the dressing table and said: "Actually, I don't have to hold this engagement party. But if you want to postpone it, at least tell me first. I know from others that you want to postpone it. Have you thought about how I feel?"
Huo Shaoheng pursed his lips and thought, Gu Nianzhi really valued this engagement party...
He said slowly: "We are all having a meal together. I didn't tell you in advance. I was negligent."
Gu Nianzhi was dumbfounded at this moment.
It turns out that this engagement banquet, in Huo Shaoheng's heart, is just like a banquet where Mr. Xie invites everyone to dinner. He really doesn't realize that he is one of the protagonists.
It was just for everyone to have a meal together. He couldn't go at the moment, so of course he had to inform the host to postpone it.
Because he didn't subconsciously regard himself as the protagonist, he naturally didn't think that Gu Nianzhi was one of the protagonists. Therefore, he only made it clear to the Xie family that he was going to postpone.
Naturally, someone on Gu Nianzhi's side informed her.
Therefore, it was normal procedure for Xie's assistant to call He Zhichu.
If the time for people to treat guests to dinner changes, doesn’t it always happen at short notice
Huo Shaoheng was disgusted with He Zhichu's tendency to criticize him online.
Understanding what Huo Shaoheng meant, Gu Nianzhi twitched the corners of his lips and said jokingly: "Master Huo, are you trying to apologize to me? Tsk tsk, it's not easy. Mr. Huo, who is used to giving orders to the letter, also has this habit of explaining things to others in a low voice. One day, I was just so flattered.”
Huo Shaoheng turned to look at the mirror on the dressing table, and Gu Nianzhi's angry eyes met in the mirror. He thought, it turns out that when Nianzhi is angry, he looks so beautiful...
Then he realized that he really loved this girl so much that even her angry look seemed alive.
He smiled, turned around and picked up the hair dryer, stood up and blew Gu Nianzhi's hair while saying, "This time we are actually having a meal together. The so-called engagement banquet is just a pretext. Don't be angry, wait until we have the wedding." , everything listens to you, you can do whatever you want."
Weddings abroad are all organized by the bride.
Of course, the wedding expenses are also paid by the woman, so the bride has absolute decision-making power.
The groom just needs to be careful not to run away before the wedding.
Huo Shaoheng has been performing missions abroad for many years and has a very thorough understanding of foreign customs and habits.
Gu Nianzhi curled his lips and said, "You are talking nonsense again. Can I make the decision about the wedding?"
Because Russian President Vladimir Putin said he would be their witness, preparations were already underway within the Chinese Empire to make this wedding a diplomatic feast!
Huo Shaoheng felt even more guilty.
He hadn't thought about it at all.
Lately all his thoughts had been occupied by the small mini-submarine at the bottom of the Cape of Good Hope.
He leaned forward and hugged Gu Nianzhi, wanting to tell her about the small mini-submarine.
But he was worried that Gu Xiangwen was not alive inside.
He couldn't give her false hope and then shatter it with his own hands.
That would be worse than having no hope.
Pursing his lips, Huo Shaoheng suppressed the matter, changed the subject, and said, "I will make it clear to Admiral Ji and Speaker Long about the wedding. You are the leader, and they are only auxiliaries. They cannot dominate the wedding."
When Huo Shaoheng said this, Gu Nianzhi became worried about him again. He turned to look at him and whispered, "Will you offend them by talking to them like this?"
"It's okay." Huo Shaoheng thought to himself, as long as he doesn't offend my sister-in-law, it doesn't matter if Admiral Ji and Speaker Long offend you a hundred times.
