Gu Nianzhi bit her lower lip and looked intently at the long-lost number on her phone. She slid the phone away with trembling fingers and her eyes were red.
But she held back her tears and didn't cry. She just pressed the phone tightly to her ear and didn't say a word.
She has been in the United States for more than a month, and Huo Shaoheng has not called her once.
The last time she saw him secretly was through video communication on Zhao Liangze's cell phone.
It was that time when she saw him smiling at another woman, which made her angry and uncomfortable. In the end, she desperately got into a fight with Xin Xinggao and the Indian women's softball team.
This must be the origin of her unreasonable disaster...
Gu Nianzhi suddenly felt very aggrieved.
Huo Shaoheng, who used to personally take care of her, educate her, and support her in everything, has become farther and farther away from her.
Is this the price of growth
Huo Shaoheng heard someone answer the phone over there, but he didn't hear Gu Nianzhi's voice for a long time. He was slightly startled, and subconsciously looked at his phone, almost having an occupational disease attack, and immediately wondered if Gu Nianzhi's phone had fallen into someone else's hands...
Gu Nianzhi is now in the United States, and Huo Shaoheng is not prepared to let people know that he is Gu Nianzhi's real guardian.
Just as he was about to hang up the phone, Gu Nianzhi said in a panic: "...Uncle Huo? Is it Uncle Huo?"
Huo Shaoheng felt relieved and said "Hmm" in a deep voice. Holding the phone in one hand and putting the other in the pocket of his military uniform, he strode to the window and stood there.
The morning light outside the window is slightly dew, a faint purple mist spreads on the horizon, and the mist lingers in the forest. It is another early morning in the residence.
He stayed up all night again, but he wasn't sleepy at all.
Gu Nianzhi took a long breath, and slowly let out the tight breath that had been stuck in his chest since seeing the court summons yesterday. He sat relaxed on the floor under the window sill, with his legs arched, maintaining the position of a baby in the mother's body. , huddled in the corner.
This is a sign of insecurity.
Huo Shaoheng could hear Gu Nianzhi's faint breathing through the phone.
He didn't say a word and waited quietly for a while until Gu Nianzhi's breathing on the phone became smoother and smoother, then he said slowly: "Nianzhi, what happened? Say it again."
Gu Nianzhi hesitated for a while holding the phone, but he did not dare to lie in front of Huo Shaoheng. He lowered his head and picked at the longitude and latitude lines on the sheets, mentally sorted out what had happened in the past few days, and then told Huo Shaoheng clearly and logically from beginning to end. After speaking, he asked in a low voice with a thick nasal voice: "Uncle Huo, have I caused trouble for you?"
After the whole thing was said, Gu Nianzhi's mood indeed calmed down a lot.
She released her tightly hugging legs, stood up slowly while holding on to the corner, walked to the bed and sat down.
Talking can open people's blocked minds and relieve tense emotions, which is an important method and skill in psychology.
In order to be a good guardian, Huo Shaoheng also studied psychology with Chen Chen...
Listening to the change in Gu Nianzhi's voice and tone, I guessed that her mood had improved, so she said, "It's not a big deal, and you're right. Don't be afraid."
His voice was deep and rich, full of magnetism. There was no blame or perfunctory, only just the right amount of concern and unabashed praise.
"Ah?! Really?" Gu Nianzhi immediately became energetic, his eyes sparkling astonishingly, "Do you really think I was not wrong? I... did hit her... "
She was actually quite afraid that Huo Shaoheng would blame her for fighting with others. After all, she had always been a good girl in front of Huo Shaoheng.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she left his side, all the bad elements in her character broke out. Not only did she get into fights, but she was now the defendant.
She was most afraid that Huo Shaoheng would be disappointed in her.
No need to say anything harsh, just give her a look of disappointment, Gu Nianzhi will feel heartbroken, wishing he could jump down from a hundred floors, smash himself to pieces, be blown away by the wind, and never live in this world again. Disappear so that you won't be embarrassed in front of him.
Huo Shaoheng has a cold and hard temperament, and comforting people has never been his strong point, so he just said lightly: "A traitor can be beaten if beaten, but not killed. No matter how mournful she is..." After that, he stopped mentioning the court. Regarding the summons, the conversation changed, "...Why didn't you eat? Daxiong said you were locked up in the house for a day and a night."
Gu Nianzhi pouted and twisted the edge of the pillow with his fingers, "I'm not hungry and I don't want to eat."
"Are you willful?" Huo Shaoheng turned around with his cell phone in hand, folded his arms and leaned against the window sill, "Be obedient and go out to eat. Didn't your Professor He wait for you outside all night?"
Gu Nianzhi's water chestnut-like lips opened roundly, and he said "Ah" after a long time, "...Uncle Huo, how do you know that Professor He has been waiting here all night?"
"Nobita said that." Huo Shaoheng said lightly, selling Yin Shixiong without hesitation. "He also said that Professor He apologized to you."
Gu Nianzhi: "!!!"
Brother Daxiong, come on! I want to talk about life with you!
"Why don't you say anything?" Huo Shaoheng urged her, with a faint look on his face, "Did Nobita lie to me?"
"No... no." Gu Nianzhi's shoulders suddenly collapsed, "Brother Daxiong didn't lie to you."
She knows the importance.
Yin Shixiong was Huo Shaoheng's subordinate. As a soldier, it would be an unforgivable felony to deceive Shangfeng and disobey orders.
"Well." Huo Shaoheng took out a cigarette from his military uniform trouser pocket, flicked it in his hand without lighting it, and continued: "What did he do and why did he apologize to you?"
"Didn't Brother Daxiong tell you?"
"I told you, but I want to hear it from your own mouth." Huo Shaoheng was still unhurried, but there was an added layer of coercion in his voice that only those who were very familiar with him could feel.
Gu Nianzhi happened to be the one who sympathized with his emotional changes, and immediately said: "It was Professor He who kicked me out of his house that day, and there was no car. I walked alone for more than an hour, and I was exhausted..."
Huo Shaoheng finally took out his lighter, lit the cigarette in his hand, lowered his head and took a puff, "Don't play with your temper again. How did I teach you? Once a teacher, always a father, you must respect Professor He. Even if he has If something is wrong, don't confront him, avoid him immediately, and tell Ozawa later, or tell me. If he is wrong, we will help you stand up, remember?"
Gu Nianzhi nodded like a fool. She didn't feel like she had been taught a lesson at all. Instead, she was beaming. She was very happy to be disciplined by Huo Shaoheng.
"Uncle Huo, I remember... Hey, you mean Brother Ozawa? Why not Brother Daxiong?" Gu Nianzhi keenly caught the hint in Huo Shaoheng's words.
"I plan to transfer Nobita back and send Ozawa to the United States to take care of you." Huo Shaoheng said calmly, "Do you have any opinions?"
"No objection, no objection." Gu Nianzhi paused, "Isn't it because Brother Daxiong did something wrong? He is very good to me and takes good care of me."
"No, he has another mission." The pressure in Huo Shaoheng's voice was gone.
Gu Nianzhi breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as it's not because of her.
It’s good that Brother Daxiong is gone and Brother Ozawa is here to take care of her. She might have more opportunities to video chat with Uncle Huo...
As soon as Gu Nianzhi was in a good mood, he felt hungry and immediately grumbled in response.
The sound was so loud that Huo Shaoheng heard it on the other side of the phone.
He smiled and said, "Okay, let's go eat." After a pause, he told her: "Go out and apologize to Professor He, and thank him for helping you fight this lawsuit."
