Chapter 394: Ordinary Friends on Valentine's Day
"Major General Huo's mother? Of course I didn't have the good fortune to meet her." Gu Yanran nodded with a smile on her face, "Is it really beautiful?"
"Not ordinary beauty." Xue Jingjiang turned his head and glanced at Gu Yanran, "Of course Miss Gu is a great beauty, but objectively speaking, she is still far inferior to Huo Shao's mother."
Gu Yanran didn't seem to be surprised at all, and said: "I believe you, judging by Huo Shao's appearance, I know that his mother must be a peerless beauty, otherwise how could he give birth to such a beautiful son?"
"Haha, that's true. Young Master Huo has been the best-looking brat among our bunch of brats since he was a child." Xue Jingjiang winked and looked around, "Don't tell others..."
This childish behavior made Gu Yanran giggle, "Jingjiang, I didn't expect you to be so funny, it's really interesting to talk to you."
The two walked out of the restaurant's door while talking, and walked towards the elevator.
With a ding, the elevator door opened in front of them, and a woman in a light blue houndstooth wool suit hurried out of the elevator and went into the restaurant.
Gu Yanran glanced at her, and calmly entered the elevator with Xue Jingjiang, without mentioning what happened just now, the two of them were talking about the business they would cooperate with, and the chat was very speculative.
The woman who hurried into the restaurant inquired with the waiter, and followed him to the seat where Zhao Liangze was.
"This is the Mr. Zhao you are looking for." The waiter bowed, and said to Zhao Liangze: "This is the Miss Bai you are waiting for." After speaking, he turned and left.
Zhao Liangze looked at Bai Shuang standing in front of him in surprise, and couldn't help but look behind her, "Bai Shuang, is that you? Where's your cousin?"
He clearly made an appointment with Bai Shuang's cousin Bai Yueran, who was also a colleague of his Special Operations Department.
How did he become Bai Shuang?
Bai Shuang said very apologetically: "My cousin has something to do suddenly. She has gone abroad and can't come. Before she left, she called me and asked me to say sorry to you on her behalf."
Zhao Liangze's expression changed.
It's not that he couldn't tell that this was Bai Yueran's tactful rejection of him.
What era is it now?
If she missed the appointment and couldn't make it, mobile phone, SMS, or various instant messaging systems could help her get the message, but she chose to let Bai Shuang deliver the message for her.
Bai Shuang saw Zhao Liangze's face, and felt very sorry for him, "...My cousin really has something to do, but I originally wanted to call you, but later I felt that I couldn't explain clearly on the phone, so I just I came in person. But now it seems that it is better to call."
After all, Zhao Liangze was well-trained, so he quickly restrained his emotions, squinted his eyes and smiled, "It's okay, come on, sit down, if your cousin doesn't come, we have to eat too. ——Have you eaten yet?"
Bai Shuang was stunned for a moment, "You want to treat me to dinner?"
"That's right, can't it?" Under the crystal lamp in the dining room, Zhao Liangze's handsome and fair face attracted her attention like a magnet.
Bai Shuang's feet seemed to have taken root, and he couldn't get out of the restaurant.
She couldn't help but sat down on the seat opposite Zhao Liangze, and said in a low voice: "Then bother." After a pause, she added: "But this is your Valentine's Day dinner..."
"It's okay, it's just a meal. Who said you can't invite friends to dinner on Valentine's Day, right?" Zhao Liangze said and summoned a waiter, "Serve the food."
His set meal was already set, and he waited for half an hour before Bai Shuang arrived.
Bai Shuang was also a little embarrassed.
She was going to watch an old movie by herself at home today, but she suddenly received a call from her cousin ten minutes ago, saying that she was on the plane to Europe and had an urgent mission, and she was too late to go to Zhao Liangze's appointment, so she asked her to help Call and say sorry.
Bai Shuang said at the time, cousin, you should call yourself.
But Bai Yueran didn't know if she was in a hurry to get on the plane, or if something happened to shut down her phone, anyway, she couldn't get through to her phone anymore.
In desperation, Bai Shuang drove over in a hurry.
I personally apologize to Zhao Liangze.
Zhao Liangze's mood has changed quickly. He looked at Bai Shuang with a smile and said, "Second Miss Bai is so beautifully dressed, don't you have a date?"
As soon as he said she sat down, obviously there was nowhere to go...
Bai Shuang blushed, but still said generously: "Yeah, no one wants to ask me out, so I originally planned to watch an old movie at home."
"What old movies?" Zhao Liangze asked with great interest, "Let's see if our hobbies are the same."
"It's a very old movie. It's almost a hundred years old." Bai Shuang put the handbag beside the dining table, "Casablanca, have you seen it?"
"Oh...Of course I've seen it. I really like the song "Casablanca" with the same name." Zhao Liangze raised his eyebrows unexpectedly, "It's very nice."
"Really? I also like that song very much!" Bai Shuang was so pleasantly surprised that he couldn't help humming softly.
Her voice was normal, but she had a special deep charm when she sang.
Especially when she sings: "A-kiss-is-not-a-kiss-without-your-sigh... I-love-you-more-and-more-each-day-as--goes-by" Zhao Liangze couldn't help humming along.
The two looked at each other and smiled, not expecting to have such a common hobby.
With something in common, the chat between two people becomes smooth.
Although Zhao Liangze was not as eloquent as Yin Shixiong, he was not much worse.
And Bai Shuang has always had a good impression of him. Although he doesn't like her, it doesn't prevent them from being ordinary friends.
She could suppress her love in her heart and just be ordinary friends with him.
...
On the other side of the restaurant, when Huo Shaoheng got up to answer the phone again, Gu Nianzhi saw Zhao Liangze and a beautiful woman who was having dinner with him.
Huh? Isn't this Bai Shuang, the former First Secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs?
Gu Nianzhi frowned, searching for this woman in his memory, and remembered many things.
At that time, because of the Nandou satellite communication system, Gu Nianzhi operated behind the scenes, which made Bai Shuang show off.
Later, when she was in the United States, she also used Zhao Liangze's video call to live broadcast Huo Shaoheng's participation in a reception, and saw Bai Shuang.
At that time, she only saw Huo Shaoheng smiling in Bai Shuang's direction, and she was so jealous...
So this woman is brother Ozawa's girlfriend?
It's really wrong to blame Huo Shao...
Gu Nianzhi thought about it, couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips, and lowered his head to laugh.
"What are you laughing at?" Huo Shaoheng happened to be seated, turned his head and saw Gu Nianzhi's playful appearance, leaned over calmly, and kissed her upturned lips.
Gu Nianzhi was startled, and just as he was about to push him away, Huo Shaoheng sat up straight, "I still haven't eaten dessert, what dessert do you want?"
Gu Nianzhi didn't want to eat desserts, so she said, "Young Master Huo, can we pack the desserts back?" While tugging at his arm, he pouted towards the other side of the restaurant, "Look, there's Brother Xiaoze over there, with him girlfriend..."
Huo Shaoheng turned his head and looked in the direction Gu Nianzhi pointed, and found that Zhao Liangze, who was sitting alone just now, had a female companion.
And that female companion is still Bai Shuang...
Huo Shaoheng glanced at it calmly, then looked away, and said to Gu Nianzhi, "It's probably not his girlfriend."
"Ah? Brother Xiaoze is still chasing him?" Gu Nianzhi became more interested, "Bai Shuang is the First Secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, right? Tsk tsk, young and promising, Brother Xiaoze has to work hard to catch up!"
Huo Shaoheng thought of Bai Shuang's father, and shook his head calmly, "I'm afraid Bai Shuang is not suitable for Ozawa. I will tell him when I go back."
Gu Nianzhi: "..."
After a while, she asked cautiously: "Young Master Huo, do you want to take care of Brother Xiaoze's personal problems?"
"I don't care, I just remind him." Huo Shaoheng said calmly, while waving for dessert, "His military rank is not low, if he wants to make a marriage report, Bai Shuang will not be able to pass the political review."
The first time Gu Nianzhi heard the word "political trial", he subconsciously felt cramped.
She stopped talking and quietly finished off a whole plate of cheesecake by herself.
Huo Shaoheng glanced at her several times, seeing that she was eating happily, so he didn't speak.
After eating and leaving from the restaurant, Gu Nianzhi came back to his senses, looked at Huo Shaoheng's tall figure, and asked in a low voice, "... Huo Shao, if you want to make a marriage report, is it right?" Do you want a trial?"
