"Do you have a guest?" Huo Shaoheng stood up calmly, "Then I'd better go back."
"What are you going back for?" Admiral Ji couldn't allow him to refuse, "Since we're here, let's have a meal together! When have you ever come to my house without having a meal?"
Huo Shaoheng smiled, bent down and picked up his briefcase from the sofa, "Before, you had no guests at home, so it didn't matter if I had a meal. Now that you have guests, it seems a bit unreasonable for me to have a meal."
"What can't you say? He's not a guest either. You met him last time." Admiral Ji glanced at him, "Don't you remember Xu Piaohong, the daughter of Deputy Chief of Staff Xu of the Third Regiment under the Operations Department?"
Huo Shaoheng looked thoughtful, thought for a while, and shook his head, "I really don't remember. Have I seen her?"
"Don't be pretentious!" General Ji was slightly disappointed when he saw Huo Shaoheng's appearance. "She forced your car to stop not long ago. Do you really not remember?"
"Oh, it turns out it's the trainee policewoman who doesn't know much about traffic police rules." Huo Shaoheng put his fist to his lips and coughed, "I remember her, but I don't remember her name."
Admiral Ji said angrily: "How could you forget her name? Is she so inconspicuous?"
"Why should I remember her name?" Huo Shaoheng said calmly, "I have to do dozens, if not a hundred, of things every day. I really can't be distracted. Admiral Ji, why don't you tell me what great thing this policewoman Xu has done? Is it worth remembering her name?"
Admiral Ji stared at Huo Shaoheng with his mouth agape. He didn't know what to say. He could only walk to the dining room and mutter to himself: "... It's just a name. Are you going to do something earth-shattering?"
Huo Shaoheng walked calmly behind Admiral Ji and followed him into the Ji family's dining room.
In fact, General Ji asked him to stay for dinner, even if there was no reason for him to stay. Huo Shaoheng was not a person who didn't know how to adapt, so he just needed to express his attitude a little.
Admiral Ji knew it in his heart.
Entering the dining room, Xu Piaohong was already sitting at the dining table with Admiral Ji's wife.
"Shao Heng is here, sit down quickly!" Admiral Ji's wife greeted Huo Shaoheng warmly and asked Huo Shaoheng to sit next to Xu Piaohong.
Xu Piaohong was a little embarrassed, but she still said calmly and generously: "Hello, Major General Huo. I didn't expect to see you again."
"We are all acquaintances, why are you so polite?" Admiral Ji smiled and sat down next to his wife, "Piao Hong, it's getting late. After dinner, let Mr. Huo take you back."
Xu Piaohong's face suddenly turned red. She glanced at Huo Shaoheng secretly and saw his breathtakingly handsome profile. Under the light, the corners of his lips seemed to be hooked but not hooked, and his expression was shockingly calm.
Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Xu Piaohong sizing him up secretly. Huo Shaoheng glanced over, nodded, and asked politely: "Did Miss Xu drive here?"
Xu Piaohong was caught by his appearance and nodded blankly, "Yes, I drove here."
General Ji wanted to cover his face when he heard this.
This girl is too honest!
He was deceived by Huo Shaoheng...
As expected, Huo Shaoheng smiled slightly and said smoothly: "Since Miss Xu drove here, then I will let the orderly drive behind your car and take you back, right?"
Only then did Xu Piaohong realize what she had said, and she felt extremely regretful.
If only I had known that she would not have said that she would come by car. She would have left her car at Admiral Ji's place and asked Dad to find someone to drive it back tomorrow...
Admiral Ji had no choice but to find the steps for him, and said with a smile: "So Piao Hong came by car? Forget it, I didn't need Shao Heng to send it off. I thought you came in your father's car."
"My father's car is a special vehicle for the military. My mother and I never ride in my father's official car." Xu Piaohong said politely, saying that she would not take advantage of the military.
"Haha, it's really rare!" Admiral Ji smiled heartily and gave Xu Piaohong a chopstick dish, "People like Deputy Chief of Staff Xu and such a family should become an example for the military to learn from!"
Huo Shaoheng smiled and nodded, seeming to agree, but he did not speak, picked up the bowl and started eating.
Xu Piaohong looked at Huo Shaoheng's behavior carefully and saw that he was eating very decently, eating slowly and with impeccable manners.
Her father would make a lot of noise when eating at home. He also told her that people in the army are like this, so they are called men!
But Huo Shaoheng was different from the soldiers on her father's side.
It turns out that only people who eat ruggedly are called men...
Xu Piaohong couldn't help but scoop a bowl of soup for Huo Shaoheng, put it on his right hand, and said with a smile: "Major General Huo, this is Codonopsis, Wolfberry and Mutton Soup. It is very tonic. My mommy said that you should take tonic in winter."
Huo Shaoheng paused and saw that Admiral Ji and his wife were looking at him with smiles. He could not refuse, so he had to take it, "Thank you, Miss Xu."
The soup bowl was very small, so Huo Shaoheng didn't care. He finished it in two gulps and put the soup bowl aside.
Unexpectedly, Xu Piaohong saw that he finished the drink quickly and thought he liked it very much, so she quickly served him another bowl.
Huo Shaoheng said hurriedly: "Miss Xu, you don't have to be polite, I've had enough."
"Major General Huo, please eat the last bowl." Xu Piaohong pushed the soup to Huo Shaoheng, "Everything in General Ji's house is good. I even said before that I would learn how to cook from Mrs. Ji. Major General Huo What kind of food do you like to eat?"
Huo Shaoheng said calmly: "I like to eat everything."
To say I like to eat anything is equivalent to saying, I won’t tell you what I like to eat…
Xu Piaohong was choked for a moment, then she understood the implication of Huo Shaoheng's words and stopped asking questions.
However, she didn't know how to taste the food. She picked up her chopsticks and took a few mouthfuls, but when she saw that Huo Shaoheng had finished his meal and was drinking tea, she stopped eating.
Huo Shaoheng blew on the tea smoke and asked her calmly: "Miss Xu, don't you want to eat?"
"No, I'm full." Xu Piaohong patted herself exaggeratedly, "Auntie's food is really delicious!"
Huo Shaoheng looked at the little food left in Xu Piaohong's bowl, smiled, and said no more.
He finished his tea and stood up to leave.
Admiral Ji could no longer urge him to send Xu Piaohong off, so he had no choice but to wink at Xu Piaohong.
Xu Piaohong mustered up the courage to catch up and said to Huo Shaoheng, "Major General Huo, are you going to the parking lot?"
Huo Shaoheng shook his head, "My car is at the door."
"Oh..." Xu Piaohong was a little disappointed, "My car is parked in the parking lot..."
"This is the residence of members of the Supreme Council of the Military. It is very safe." Huo Shaoheng said politely, "But if Miss Xu still dares not go, I can ask my orderly to take you there."
"No... no... that's not what I meant. I know it's safe here..." Xu Piaohong waved her hands quickly, "Then Major General Huo, please leave first. I remembered that my things were left at Admiral Ji's house."
"Okay, I'll leave first." Huo Shaoheng nodded to him and got into his car.
Fan Jian started the car in the front driver's seat and quickly drove out of the residential area where the military Supreme Council bosses lived.
Huo Shaoheng sat in the car, rubbed his forehead, and closed his eyes silently to rest.
After a while, he felt a little hot. He wondered if he drank too much mutton soup at night.
He looked up at the road outside and seemed to be passing through the gate of B. He said to Fan Jian, "Drive to B. I'll go see Nian Zhi."
