Chapter 1207 Must Send

“Two hours to make preparations? Prepare for what?” Gu Nianzhi looked at Zhao Liangze. “Did I miss something while I was sleeping?” she asked.Zhao Liangze led her to the table and sat down. “Have some dinner first.”

Gu Nianzhi sat down in silence and looked at the dinner on the table. There were steamed lobster tails. This had become her favorite dish after coming to Cape Town.

The sweet and tender lobster meat was perfectly expressed in the thick lobster tail.

The best part of the entire lobster was probably the tail meat.

There were four lobster tails on the dinner plate in front of Gu Nianzhi, and they were arranged in the shape of a cross.

She cut the lobster tail with a knife and extracted the tender meat from inside the shell, placing it into her mouth, then closed her eyes to squeal in delight.

It was so delicious!

Every single one of her taste buds were comforted. Although she had only placed a tiny piece of lobster meat in her mouth, it was already a feast of flavor. She couldn’t bear to swallow it.

While Gu Nianzhi was leisurely enjoying her dinner, Zhao Liangze and Bai Shuang were practically battling each other.

The two stared at each other so hard that their eyes seemed to burst into flames.

After a while, Zhao Liangze asked stiffly, “Where is your boyfriend?”

“I don’t have a boyfriend,” Bai Shuang replied without any hesitation. “What are you talking about?”

“You don’t have one? I thought Big Ben was pursuing you.” Zhao Liangze tapped his finger on the table and asked, “Why won’t you admit it?”

“Huh. So, anyone pursuing me is my boyfriend? Zhao Liangze, I chased you – so am I your girlfriend?” Bai Shuang sneered.

“Yes!” Zhao Liangze shouted suddenly. “You pursued me, so you are my girlfriend! Are you trying to cheat on me?!”

“Cough, cough, cough, cough...”

Gu Nianzhi was shocked by Zhao Liangze’s jump in logic and almost choked.

Bai Shuang smiled and said, “Look at how you’ve scared Nianzhi. It’s obvious that you’re spewing absurd nonsense.”

Zhao Liangze pursed his lips and dragged over a plate of steak before viciously stabbing it with a knife.

As the knife scraped across the plate, it made screeching and grinding sounds so horrible that Gu Nianzhi almost had a heart attack.

Gu Nianzhi covered her ears with her hands and shook her head at Zhao Liangze. “Brother Ze, that’s enough! You are about to cut the dinner plate in half,” she said.

Zhao Liangze rolled his eyes at her but slowed down the movements of his hands. He no longer scratched the knife against the dinner plate.

Bai Shuang snickered before taking out her phone and forwarding the message she had just received to Gu Nianzhi’s phone. She said, “Nianzhi, I just spoke with my bank executive friend and asked him how we can take a look at the safe without providing credentials. This was his suggestion to me. Here is some information you can read for yourself, along with a map.”

Bai Shuang should have sent this information to Zhao Liangze, but she felt her anger boil over after just once glance at him. In her moment of rage, she sent it directly to Gu Nianzhi.

Gu Nianzhi hummed as she pulled out her phone to take a look.

Sure enough, Bai Shuang had sent a map of the bank’s security to her phone. It contained the positions of all security, military, and police personnel present tonight and all the equipment they possessed, as well as notes on the security facilities of the building and basement floor. He also provided the passwords for the elevator leading to the basement and the basement door.

Gu Nianzhi nodded and smiled as she looked over the information. “Not bad, not bad. Tonight is truly a good opportunity. But when will Huo Shao come?” she asked.

They no longer had to avoid talking about Huo Shaoheng in front of Bai Shuang since they had already told her that he would come to them to look at the safety deposit box.

Zhao Liangze said without looking up, “He should be here soon.”

As expected, Huo Shaoheng arrived soon after.

As soon as Gu Nianzhi finished eating the four steamed lobster tails that had been in front of her, Huo Shaoheng walked in with the sea breeze behind him.

He wore a baseball cap low over his head, a yuppie-style hunting outfit, and a pair of Black Eagle military boots on his long legs.

After coming inside, he took off his sunglasses and looked at Bai Shuang with a subtle smile. “Miss Bai, we meet again,” he said.

Bai Shuang nodded at him, her voice trembling as she said, “Huo Shao is here. Did you have a safe trip?”

“I found two people following me, but I have already thrown them off.” Huo Shaoheng sat down beside Gu Nianzhi without hesitation and grabbed a plate of steak from the table to eat.

Bai Shuang nodded, then repeated what she said earlier. She emphasized that they had to go to the bank’s basement floor after 9:00m pm since they wouldn’t be able to get in before then.

Huo Shaoheng looked at the topographic map on Gu Nianzhi’s mobile phone and said calmly, “It depends on the situation. I think we still have to infiltrate the main building and then go to the basement at 9:00 pm. What if you get stuck outside?”

It was true that experts knew everything about their fields.

Gu Nianzhi immediately agreed, saying, “I think that is the safest way. Everyone is entering the venue before 7:00 pm, so that’ll be a good time for us to mix in with the crowd and sneak inside.”

After getting inside, they could act separately and meet at the basement entrance.

Bai Shuang thought for a while then agreed, saying, “Then I will get you some invitations. How many of you are going?”

Huo Shaoheng glanced at her and replied lightly, “Just the three of us.”

Bai Shuang, “...”

Bai Shuang left the dining table and walked towards the door. She couldn’t help but turn around after she had gotten halfway. “Just the three of you? Don’t you think that’s too few people?” she asked.

“We are not stealing anything and are only taking a look at the safe, so why should we need more people?” Gu Nianzhi frowned. “I think that’s enough.”

Huo Shaoheng nodded and said, “Yes. Three people are really enough.”

Bai Shuang’s gaze swept over Huo Shaoheng’s face, but she couldn’t tell what he was thinking.

Turning her eyes to look at Zhao Liangze, she saw that he was still as angry as if Bai Shuang owed him millions of dollars.

Her eyes darkened as she said, “If that’s the case, I’ll get three invitations.”

“Thank you for helping,” Huo Shaoheng said.

“No problem.” Bai Shuang nodded and left their suite.

After Bai Shuang left, Gu Nianzhi quickly asked Huo Shaoheng, “It’s really only the three of us going?”

“That was a lie.” Huo Shaoheng calmly speared a piece of cut steak and put it into his mouth. “I have already made arrangements, so the three of us will be the last to arrive.”

Gu Nianzhi hurriedly forwarded the security map Bai Shuang had sent her to Huo Shaoheng’s mobile phone and added, “Bai Shuang obtained this from her friend. He is a bank executive.”

Huo Shaoheng picked up the phone and studied it attentively for a while, before saying, “...Her friend is pretty nice, and the map is really detailed.”

Zhao Liangze sneered when he heard this and replied, “Of course he’s pretty nice. He intends on pursuing her romantically, so he will not hesitate to abuse his powers for personal gains or accept bribes.”

Huo Shaoheng, “...”

He turned his head to look at Gu Nianzhi and asked, “...Did Little Ze take the wrong medication?”

“I didn’t take any medicine!” Zhao Liangze stood up. “I’m going to get ready and leave right away.”

He went back to the room and changed into a tuxedo with a small bow tie around his neck.

When he came out, Bai Shuang had already returned. She was holding four invitations and was explaining to Huo Shaoheng, “I asked a friend for four because it includes family members. This way, you will be with Nianzhi, and I will be with Little Ze when we go in. There will be no problems at all.”

Huo Shaoheng smiled subtly and said, “Thank you, Miss Bai.”

“You’re very welcome.” Bai Shuang didn’t dare look at Huo Shaoheng’s eyes, her gaze flickering in Zhao Liangze’s direction.

However, he stared at her like she was his prey. It was as though he wanted nothing more but to swallow her whole.

Gu Nianzhi noticed this and quickly tried to lighten the atmosphere, saying, “Do I need to change clothes? But I think I am very comfortable!”

She was wearing a light grey suit, and the waist of the short suit jacket was perfectly tailored. She appeared exceptionally dazzling each time she wore it.

It was a rare blessing that she had such nice curves since she weighed less than 100 kilograms.

Huo Shaoheng glanced at her and said, “No need to change. This outfit is very good.”

Bai Shuang glanced at Zhao Liangze and said with a smile, “Little Ze, let’s go as dance partners.”

Zhao Liangze was about to refuse when Huo Shaoheng, standing beside him, dryly interjected, “Please cooperate with the invitation that Miss Bai brought. This is an order.”
