Chapter 2022 The Old House Is on Fire (4)
It's a pity that Dou Aiyan didn't have the chance to know who the big boss she was online with was.
The other side quickly hung up the phone and never called again.
Guo Huining has also been nervous for several days. He found several reasons to call Huo Guanchen, but he couldn't call Huo Guanchen. His life secretary always answered her. He kept telling her that the chief is very busy recently, so let her take care of it. , Said that when the work is done, he will go back to see Mr. Huo.
But this kind of words is just an excuse.
Guo Huining didn't believe a word.
She didn't understand why Huo Guanchen obviously had feelings for her, but he didn't take the last step with her?
She regretted it very much at this time, before the candlelight dinner that night, she should have taken more medicine!
Such an opportunity is probably very difficult to come by again...
Just when she had been unable to find Huo Guanchen and was almost desperate, someone suddenly called her.
"...Miss Guo? I'm Dou Aiyan's friend." The man said straight to the point.
When Guo Huining heard the voice, he immediately recognized that it was the person who called Dou Aiyan with a voice changer!
Although she only heard it once by accident, the voice was so special, and her memory was not bad, so she always remembered it firmly.
But even though she recognized it, she knew she couldn't reveal it.
So he pretended not to know her, and said lightly, "Hello, who are you? I haven't been in touch with Aiyan for a while."
The person over there seemed to laugh, and it could be heard that he was an elderly man. Although he used a voice changer, the basic sound quality was difficult to change.
If Guo Huining had the software to analyze the frequency of the sound, he could even restore the original sound of the voice changer.
Of course, for Guo Huining, she doesn't care whether the other party is a man or a woman, as long as the other party can help her achieve her wish.
The other party seemed quite satisfied with her reaction, and said very politely: "I'm Dou Aiyan's friend, you can call me Uncle Dong."
Guo Huining: "..."
She is not used to calling "uncle" to strangers.
Holding the phone, he said vaguely, "Mr. Dong, what can you do for me?"
"I heard from Ai Yan that you and General Huo are getting closer?"
It's really a pot that doesn't open.
Guo Huining's face darkened, "Are you entertaining me? If there is nothing else, I'll hang up."
"Don't be so anxious." The man smiled confidently, "I don't understand why you can't eat hot porridge in a hurry."
Guo Huining choked on what he said, and said bravely, "Why am I impatient? Don't say half and hide half, just say what you have to say, who knows what you mean by rambling?"
"Well, for the sake of Ai Yan, I kindly want to help you."
Guo Huining held his arm and said flatly: "You won't help me for free, will you treat me like a child who doesn't understand anything?"
"...Well, of course we are business people seeking money. If you can marry Admiral Huo, of course we will ask you in the future. "
Hearing that the other party was begging for money, Guo Huining lowered his arms and felt relieved.
She sat on the sofa and said with the corners of her lips curled up, "To do business, you have to connect the sky and the earth. What kind of business are you doing?"
The other party also laughed, "Miss Guo is a sensible person, and she is also a smart person. Of course, a business that needs to connect the sky and the earth is not an ordinary business, and the profit of this kind of business is not ordinary."
"...I can't guarantee that." Guo Huining smiled lightly, "If it affects Guanchen's career, I will only help you if I take the wrong medicine."
How could she trade Huo Guanchen's future?
Then why did she work so hard to marry him?
Do you want to be a commoner with him?
The other party hurriedly explained: "Miss Guo, don't worry, we will never do anything illegal. In fact, it's just a matter of lifting our hands to help you, and it doesn't take us much effort."
"Oh? Then how can you help me?" Guo Huining asked tentatively, "I declare in advance that I have no money, no job, and no status. I can't help you with anything."
"Miss Guo is too modest.
With your influence, wouldn't it be enough to give Admiral Huo a pillow in the future? "The other party's words are already quite explicit.
But Guo Huining was very appetizing, and smiled even bigger, "You are joking, Guanchen is not that kind of person."
The other party saw that she was familiar with Huo Guanchen's tone, and from the conversation they overheard, it was confirmed that Guo Huining was indeed just a step away.
"How about this, are you free now? Come to the second floor of Yuan'ai restaurant, I am convenient for others and convenient for myself."
That person sent Guo Huining an address and coordinates.
Guo Huining took a look, and found that the coordinates of this address were a restaurant called "Yuan Ai" near the Institute of High Energy Physics on the Fourth Ring Road.
"Okay, I'll be right over."
Guo Huining has a scooter in Huo Guanchen's Xishan villa here, which Huo Guanchen used for her.
She took the car keys and got into the car, and it took only 20 minutes to arrive at the gate of Yuanai restaurant on the fourth ring road next to the Institute of High Energy Physics.
The waiter at the door took her to the second floor.
Guo Huining had never been to this restaurant, she thought the second floor was full of private rooms.
As a result, when I went upstairs, I found that this is still an open hall pattern, but compared with the downstairs hall, there are many more screens and green plants, which divide the entire second floor into separate areas.
It looks like a private room, but it is more open than a private room, but there is enough privacy between each location.
The only downside is that the sound insulation is slightly poor.
Guo Huining took a look at those Nordic-style dining tables and chairs, and was very surprised that there is such an elegant and interesting restaurant in this place.
She followed the waiter all the way through.
Going around the path guided by the green vines, she saw a striking couple sitting by the window not far away.
The man is elegant and handsome, and the woman in front of him is mature and beautiful, a strange match.
In the front left sits a mother and child. The child is only four or five years old, but he sits in his own high chair in an orderly manner, without yelling like ordinary children.
The child's mother was elegant and gentle, and was wiping the child's hands with a wet tissue.
Guo Huining withdrew his gaze, and looked to the right side covered by vines and screens.
Although it was just a glimpse, Guo Huining stopped suddenly.
Who did she see? !
She actually saw Huo Guanchen!
At this moment, what is he doing here?
Guo Huining only called Huo Guanchen in the morning, and was told by his life secretary that Huo Guanchen would have a meeting all day today!
Is this a meeting?
Went to this high-end restaurant for a meeting?
Guo Huining tightly held the handle of her Hermes Birkin bag, the veins on the back of her hand were exposed.
But she was not impulsive, and patiently followed the waiter to another direction.
After going around a few more times, she was finally led to a cubicle by the waiter.
In the cubicle, a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties was holding an IPAD and watching a live video.
Seeing her coming, he hurriedly raised his head, stood up, stretched out his hand and said with a smile, "...is that Miss Guo? I am Uncle Dong."
This person's voice was exactly the same as the one she heard on the phone!
Guo Huining stretched out his hand in some embarrassment, and shook hands with this person.
It turned out to be a real voice...
She thought she had used a voice changer.
Although it sounded a little strange, Guo Huining was relieved when he remembered that some people's voices were different from others.
She once heard a singer sing. If she only listened to the voice and didn't look at the face, everyone would think he was a woman, but he was actually a man.
The uncanny workmanship of nature is sometimes so magical.
"Hello, Uncle Dong." Guo Huining sat down across from him. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the IPAD by the man's hand, and his face changed slightly.
She originally thought that this person was watching the live broadcast, but now that she saw the content on the IPAD screen clearly, she realized that it was not an ordinary live broadcast, but the layout of the restaurant here!
Seeing that Guo Huining had already sensed the difference, the man pursed his lips and smiled, and handed over an earphone, "Put it on."
Guo Huining took the earphone suspiciously, and listened to the earphone with the man.
She was also unceremonious, and leaned over to look at the IPAD in the man's hand.
The image on the IPAD is actually not very clear, just like the picture quality captured by a low-resolution surveillance camera, but the rare thing is that the sound is very clear.
Guo Huining heard very clearly that the voice coming from the earphone was Huo Guanchen's voice.
And what was shown on the iPad was that Huo Guanchen was sitting opposite a woman, with only four dishes of side dishes in front of him.
Guo Huining looked at Uncle Dong in surprise.
Uncle Dong said with a smile: "...I am the owner of this restaurant."
No wonder he can watch the surveillance directly!
Guo Huining heaved a sigh of relief, ignored this person, held his breath, stared at the IPAD, and listened to the conversation inside.
After listening for a long time, she realized that Huo Guanchen was on a blind date!
She had heard Huo Shaoheng and Gu Nianzhi talk about it before, and she thought they were deliberately hitting her!
Did not expect to be true.
Huo Guanchen was not wearing a military uniform at this time, but was wearing a gray thin-striped shirt, black slim suit trousers, and a cigarette in his hand. woman.
The woman in front of him is not young anymore, but she is not very old either. According to Guo Huining, she should be around forty. Compared to Huo Guanchen's age, she is certainly young.
But compared to Guo Huining, he is too old.
Guo Huining twitched the corner of his mouth contemptuously.
But that woman is still quite good-looking, and it can be seen that she comes from a good background, is better educated, speaks softly, looks at Huo Guanchen, although she is reserved, but everyone is a woman, Guo Huining still can't see this. Do people think about Huo Guanchen?
Just listening to the earphone, the woman said softly: "General Huo, I was divorced once, but I have no children. I don't know if you still want children..."
Huo Guanchen politely interrupted her, "Ms. Liu, at my age, I don't need children anymore."
"Ah? Really?" Ms. Liu seemed surprised and delighted, "When my father told me, I didn't believe it..."
Huo Guanchen showed a trace of pity and intolerance. He put out the cigarette in the ashtray, sighed, and said, "Your father, Minister Liu, has worked with me for many years. I won't hide it from you. I already have someone in my heart."
