Hello, Mr. Major General

Chapter 1538 - Whatever You Say

Chapter 1538: Whatever You Say

Gu Nianzhi’s heart skipped a beat. She looked at He Zhichu with her big, bright eyes, as if she couldn’t understand what He Zhichu was saying.

“... You don’t want to?” His breath hot and anxious, He Zhichu pressed on.

Gu Nianzhi held his hand and pushed it away. Her long eyelashes quivered without leaving a trace. “... What’s wrong with you? I said I was going to kill him that time, and you said I was daydreaming. Do you really think I have the ability to kill the KGB’s Ace of the Far East?”

She had said she was going to kill him in a fit of anger. How could she actually have the ability to do that?

She still had some self-awareness.

His hands in his pockets, He Zhichu stood up straight. He looked down at her and said coldly, “... Of course, I’m not asking you to do it yourself. If you want, we’ll get someone to do it for you.”

Gu Nianzhi: “...”

She looked at He Zhichu quizzically. “Young Master He, aren’t you still working with him? Why do you want to kill him?”

He Zhichu’s expression was strange. Gu Nianzhi didn’t believe that he really wanted to kill the Ace of the Far East.

His Adam’s apple bobbing up and down, He Zhichu pursed his lips. His voice was very restrained. “I mean, if there’s such a chance, do you want to watch him die right in front of you? That way, maybe Major General Huo from the other side can come over...”

This temptation was indeed extraordinary.

Gu Nianzhi pondered about it for a long time, and walked around the room while clasping her hands.

She didn’t know what Huo Shaoheng and the others were doing on the other side.

She also didn’t know how the experiment was progressing on the other side. Did they have the ability to achieve magnetic resonance in a short period of time and open up the channel?

However, if they could achieve resonance in a short period of time and open up the magnetic channel, then Huo Shaoheng might really be able to come over.

However, the existence of the Ace of the Far East had made all of this a dead end.

She couldn’t get through.

He couldn’t get through.

Or rather, she didn’t want him to come at all.

What would he do here?

Was he going to die with this Ace of the Far East?

This was a way to get rid of the two Major General Huos without bloodshed.

Gu Nianzhi’s heart pounded, but she still pretended to be very interested on the surface.

If the two Major General Huo died at the same time, Gu Nianzhi could even imagine who would benefit the most.

If she couldn’t see that, then her years of following Major General Huo would have been wasted..

What exactly was she going to do to resolve Major General Huo’s crisis?

He Zhichu looked at Gu Nianzhi, who was struggling to make a decision, and felt very upset.

He was sure that in her heart, Huo Shaoheng was still the undisputed number one, and towards the Ace of the Far East, it wasn’t that she didn’t feel anything at all as she had said.

What about him? Where was his place?

A man’s love for a woman wasn’t considered love if he didn’t possess her.

He Zhichu clenched his fists and his thin lips coughed quietly. He said indifferently, “You don’t have to hesitate. I was just saying so casually. How could the Ace of the Far East die so easily?”

“Then what do you mean by saying this to me?” Gu Nianzhi said sullenly. She stopped in her tracks and glared at He Zhichu.”... Do you think it’s funny? Or are you testing me?!”

He Zhichu’s lips twitched. “Whatever you say. No matter what, I’ve never had a place in your heart anyway.”

He turned and left Gu Nianzhi’s room. He couldn’t stay any longer.

What was that feeling in his chest that made him so upset and agitated? Was it jealousy?

Yes, he was so jealous that he was about to go crazy.

But he couldn’t find a way to vent.

He Zhichu returned to his room, turned on the cold water in the shower, took off his clothes, and walked in.

He supported himself against the wall of the shower and let the cold water wash his body. The pain in his heart was more unbearable than the pain in his body.

...

A while after He Zhichu left, the doorbell in Gu Nianzhi’s room rang again.

She leaned against the curtain without moving. She turned to look at the video surveillance and realized it was Qin Zhining.

She was a little surprised. She walked over to open the door. “Qin Zhining? Why are you here?”

Wasn’t this person supposed to be “secretly” protecting her?

Qin Zhining smiled at her and said, “I heard that you were in danger yesterday, so I was instructed to begin publicly protecting you.”

Gu Nianzhi: “...”

“Thank you so much, but I don’t need it.” Gu Nianzhi didn’t want anyone following her, especially a man.

If it was a beautiful woman like Xiao Ye, she wouldn’t say no, but Qin Zhining was an idiot, and she didn’t want to play with him.

Qin Zhining crossed his arms in front of his chest, and that made his arms and chest muscles bulge. He said in an oppressive tone, “You don’t have the right to say no. General He sent me here specifically. If he says it’s okay, it’s okay.” He pushed open Gu Nianzhi’s door and walked past her.

“Hey!” Gu Nianzhi called out to him unhappily. “General He? He sent a man to live with me. Does his son know?”

“Young Master He?” Qin Zhining looked back at her and nodded with a smile. “He hasn’t said anything yet.”

Gu Nianzhi immediately took out her phone and dialed He Zhichu’s number. “Young Master He! Qin Zhining said he wants to live with me! Can you get him out of here? !”

He Zhichu had just come out of the bathroom and was drying his hair with a towel. He was stunned as he held the phone in his hand. “Qin Zhining?”

“Yes, he’s in my room! I hate living with this strange man!” Gu Nianzhi was very unhappy and wished she could kick Qin Zhining out of the room.

He Zhichu put down the towel and changed his clothes as he said, “I’ll be right there. Don’t worry.”

Gu Nianzhi hung up the phone and looked up at Qin Zhining. “Young Master He will be right there. Just you wait!”

Qin Zhining smiled but didn’t say anything.

He Zhichu came over very quickly. Of course, he wouldn’t let Qin Zhining live with Gu Nianzhi. “Let’s go, let’s go. Come live with me. What are you trying to do?”

“Then Young Master He, make it clear to your father that it’s not that I’m not going to complete the mission, but it’s that you’re the one who’s causing trouble.” Qin Zhining smiled meaningfully and gave He Zhichu a pat on the shoulder.

“Of course I’ll call.” He Zhichu’s father, He Chengjian, had never rejected He Zhichu’s request.

He Zhichu brought Qin Zhining to his room and called He Chengjian. He asked, “Father, why did you send Qin Zhining to protect Nianzhi? He’s a man. Can’t we find a female bodyguard to protect her?”

It wasn’t that He Zhichu didn’t want to send Gu Nianzhi a bodyguard. It was that he didn’t want a man to protect her.

He Chengjian laughed on the other end of the phone and said, “Actually, it’s only one night. Aren’t you taking her out of H City tomorrow? Think about it. You guys have a big mission tonight, so you definitely won’t be able to take care of Nianzhi. Aren’t you worried about her safety?”

What he said made sense.

He Zhichu really couldn’t take care of her tonight.

“Just let him stay in her living room. Don’t you trust Qin Zhining? Although there are female bodyguards, which one of our people is as capable as Qin Zhining?” He Chengjian continued to persuade him, He Zhichu finally nodded.

After hanging up, He Zhichu brought Qin Zhining back and explained to Gu Nianzhi, “It’s only one night. We’ll go back tomorrow. I can’t take care of you tonight, so don’t make me worry. — Be good.”

He patted her head.

Gu Nianzhi frowned. “It’s really only one night?”

“Miss Gu, don’t think too much. I’m just under orders to protect you.” Qin Zhining sat down casually on the sofa in her living room. “I definitely won’t take a single step into your bedroom.”

“Alright then.” Gu Nianzhi thought that it would only be one night, and the sniper who had come at her last night had indeed given her the chills.

Qin Zhining had been a special forces soldier. With his personal protection, she should be much safer.

He Zhichu was relieved. He gave a few more instructions to Qin Zhining before leaving Gu Nianzhi’s room.

Gu Nianzhi hadn’t left the hotel for the entire day. She had stayed in her hotel room the entire time.

Lunch and dinner were ordered to her room.

Qin Zhining had just finished dinner with her when he received a call. He hurried to the French window to answer the call.

“Young Master He? Huh? Miss Linda wants to see Nianzhi? What’s the matter?”

Gu Nianzhi heard her name from the side and looked over curiously.

Qin Zhining covered the mic with his hand and asked Gu Nianzhi with a bitter expression, “Nianzhi, Miss Linda from the Soviet Union is going to the airport with Mr. Dresden. She has something important to say to you in person.”

Gu Nianzhi was very surprised. “What is it? Can’t you call her?”

Qin Zhining made a “eavesdropping” gesture. “If she could say it over the phone, would she ask you to meet her in person?”

“I see... What could have happened to her?” Gu Nianzhi couldn’t understand. Although she had already shaken hands with Linda, it wasn’t to the extent of trusting her with some big secret, was it?

Qin Zhining whispered, “There’s very important news. It’s said to be related to her driver, Peter.”

Qin Zhining wasn’t aware that this driver, Peter, was the KGB’s Ace of the Far East.

Currently, this Ace of the Far East’s public identity was Linda’s driver and bodyguard.

Everyone involved in this mission knew that he was definitely a member of the KGB, but they all treated him as Linda’s subordinate.

Other than the five generals in the military, He Zhichu, and Gu Nianzhi, no one knew that he was the famous “Ace of the Far East”.

The Huaxia Empire’s top brass were the only ones who the Soviets showed their sincerity to.

Actually, Gu Nianzhi didn’t have such high security privileges, so she shouldn’t know the true identity of the Ace of the Far East.

However, because this person looked exactly like Huo Shaoheng and had met her face to face, she was spared and they told her this top secret information.

Gu Nianzhi narrowed her eyes at Qin Zhining and said in a drawn out voice, “Really? Linda has important news to tell me, and it’s about her driver, Peter? Have you met her driver, Peter?”

Qin Zhining nodded with a disapproving look on his face. “Yes, I have. Why? It’s getting late. Shall we meet them at the airport?”

He kept urging Gu Nianzhi to go to the airport with him to meet Linda and the “driver, Peter”.

Of course, Gu Nianzhi wouldn’t believe whatever Qin Zhining said.

She pondered quickly in her mind.

Logically speaking, Qin Zhining had been to the other world and secretly observed the major general of the Special Operations Forces, Huo Shaoheng. Did he not realize that this “driver, Peter,” looked exactly like Huo Shaoheng?

But she quickly remembered that Qin Zhining had had his memory erased by Qin Yaoguang the moment he returned to this world.

Therefore, he didn’t remember that there was another world parallel to this world.

Of course, he didn’ot remember what Huo Shaoheng looked like on the other side.

Because of this, the driver, Peter, didn’t attract his attention at all.

Then why did he insist that Gu Nianzhi follow him to the airport to meet Linda?

Gu Nianzhi reached out her hand to him and said with a smile, “I see. Then give me your phone. I’ll ask Young Master He myself.”

He had actually used Qin Zhining to trick her. How much did they look down on her?

Qin Zhining handed her the phone and said with a laugh, “I’m sorry, I accidentally hung up. Call Young Master He yourself.”
