Hello, Mr. Major General

Chapter 1572 - Give You My Heart

Chapter 1572: Give You My Heart

Everyone in the hall was silent for a few minutes before an uproar broke out.

It was as if a drop of ice water had fallen into a hot pot of oil and was splashing everywhere. Everyone was stunned by He Zhichu’s words.

? ? ? ?

Wasn’t Gu Nianzhi his fiancée?

They looked at the pink diamond crown on her head that symbolized the betrothal gift!

It was the pink diamond crown that had great historical significance. It had once been a betrothal gift from Catherine the Great’s mother-in-law, the Empress of Czarist Russia!

Yes, Catherine the Great had once been the Empress of Czarist Russia. She had staged a coup and deposed her husband, Peter the Great, before ascending to the throne as the empress herself.

He Zhichu’s gaze also fell on the pink diamond crown on Gu Nianzhi’s head. He continued to say with a smile, “This pink diamond crown is proof of our brother and sister relatonship. Nianzhi, are you willing to call me brother?”

Gu Nianzhi had already known that He Zhichu intended to do this, but when he actually said this in front of so many people, her eyes couldn’t help turning red.

She knew that he was doing this to force himself not to go back on his word...

Gu Nianzhi quickly nodded and looked up in admiration. “Brother, I’ve always hoped that you would be my brother. Today, my dream has finally come true.”

He Chengjian, who was standing in a room on the second floor and watching the commotion in the hall, instantly flushed.

What the hell were these two doing? !

Ah-Chu had actually given up on Gu Nianzhi? !

He Chengjian was fuming in his room, but he still had a shred of rationality. He did not go down to ask these two people to clarify things.

They were both at his house anyway. He would not let them out unless they explained everything tonight!

He stared out of the one-way window into the first-floor hall when he heard the music and the party begin.

“Last Christmas, I gave you my heart.

But the very next day you gave it away.

This year, to save me from tears,

I’ll give it to someone special.

..

(Merry Christmas!)

I wrapped it U P and sent it,

with a note saying, “I love you,”I meant it.

Now, I know what a Fool I’ve been,

but if you kissed me now,

I know you’d fool me again.”

This was an old song, “Last Christmas.” Although it was a Christmas song, it was a love song.

He Chengjian’s gaze gradually turned profound. He looked at He Zhichu and extended his hand to Gu Nianzhi, who was in the wheelchair.

Gu Nianzhi smiled and held his hand. He led her around the center of the hall.

The wheelchair she was in was extraordinarily nimble.

He Zhichu turned off the Bluetooth headset on the two of them. His tall and slender figure circled around her wheelchair and danced with her.

His left leg stepping forward and his right leg curling up, it quickly caught up with the front leg. He moved forward and backward.

Gu Nianzhi’s wheelchair was spun into the air by him. For a moment, he switched to her left hand, and for another moment, he switched to her right hand.

It was as if he was dancing with a little robot.

Gu Nianzhi was finally happy. Her crisp and soft laughter reverberated throughout the hall. It was in tune with the music, and even the sad Christmas dance music was lightened up.

He Zhichu smiled and gestured to the people around the hall to start dancing.

Soon, pairs of men and women slid into the center of the dance floor and began dancing.

They politely left the center of the dance floor to Gu Nianzhi and He Zhichu. After all, Gu Nianzhi was in a wheelchair, so she needed more space.

But not long after, an extremely good-looking male and female pair jumped in.

It was the Deputy Chief Counsel of the Soviet Union, also known as Ace of the Far East aka Peter, and his partner Linda.

The beautiful Linda’s dancing skills were outstanding, but Peter was actually on par with her.

The two of them spun and danced as if they were separated from the ground. Their coordination was just right.

However, just as they were about to jump to He Zhichu and Gu Nianzhi’s side, Linda suddenly patted He Zhichu’s shoulder.

He Zhichu subconsciously turned around. Linda had already grabbed his hand and wrapped it around his waist with one hand, then held his other hand with the other.

This move of hers was not simple. It was not a ballroom dance move at all. Instead, it was a small grappling technique.

He Zhichu had been caught off guard, and had been successfully interrupted by her. He had been carried away by her.

The Ace of the Far East had seized the opportunity to snatch Gu Nianzhi’s wheelchair from him.

Gu Nianzhi suddenly found herself in a frenzy of spinning.

In He Zhichu’s hands, they had danced harmoniously and happily.

But in the Ace of the Far East’s hands, they had danced wildly and excitedly.

In the end, Gu Nianzhi was even lifted from her wheelchair by the Ace of the Far East.

She leaned against his chest and stood on his feet. He held her by her waist with one hand and held her hand with the other. They danced the tango in the dance hall, following the fast-paced Christmas dance music.

Because she could not walk on her own, Gu Nianzhi’s entire weight was in the hands of the Ace of the Far East.

He carried her in a crab-like cat walk. When he was slow, he was steady and steady, but when he was fast, he was passionate.

He started pushing and pulling. He looked left and right. Every three steps, he would turn his head. Every five steps, he would lower his waist. He moved forward and backward. She could feel the heat rising from his chest on her back.

His arms were strong and powerful. He lifted her up in half and circled her in a small circle almost effortlessly.

Gu Nianzhi turned her head several times in shock. All she saw was his handsome face with a faint smile on his face. From time to time, he would come over and kiss her on the cheek.

Gu Nianzhi avoided him and looked around the ballroom, as if she was asking for help.

He Zhichu finally got rid of Linda, and strode over to carry Gu Nianzhi from the arms of the Ace of the Far East.

Gu Nianzhi felt her beating heart calm down when she was in He Zhichu’s arms.

She clutched He Zhichu’s sleeve tightly and glared at the flamboyant Ace of the Far East.

He Zhichu did not say a word. He put her back in her wheelchair and pushed her out of the ballroom to the small living room where everyone could rest.

The Ace of the Far East also followed. He shrugged and said disapprovingly, “... Young Master He, is this how you treat your guests?”

He Zhichu looked Gu Nianzhi up and down. Her clothes were neat, and her hair was a little wet with sweat. Her eyes seemed to be sparkling, and she was not taken advantage of.

He gazed at her and asked gently, “Are you tired? Do you want me to send you home to rest?”

Gu Nianzhi nodded. “I’m thirsty. Give me a bottle of water.”

He Zhichu beckoned for the waiter to come over and give her a glass of fresh milk.

Gu Nianzhi frowned, but didn’t say anything. She silently drank a few mouthfuls of fresh milk.

The Ace of the Far East watched with interest and said, “Young Master He, I heard from those people just now that the pink diamond crown on lawyer Gu’s head is your family’s betrothal gift. Why don’t you want lawyer Gu to be your fiancee? Isn’t she good?”

He Zhichu straightened up and looked at him indifferently. “I don’t think being a fiancee is as good as being brother and sister.”

The Ace of the Far East rubbed his nose and said embarrassingly, “... I’ve never heard of such a saying. Husband and wife are the closest. Brother and sister... It’s too unreliable.”

“How is that possible?” He Zhichu replied indifferently. “Husband and wife can still get a divorce, but brother and sister...”

He lowered his head and covered Gu Nianzhi with the ashey grey blanket. “... They will always be brother and sister. They will never be separated.”

The Ace of the Far East stopped smiling and scoffed. “I will be impressed if you can still say that when your sister gets married.”

As he spoke, he walked over to Gu Nianzhi’s side and gave her a western-style bow. “My beautiful lawyer Gu, may I have a dance with you?”

“No.” Gu Nianzhi rejected him without hesitation. “I see that you have a partner, Mr. Peter. You can’t be fickle.”

She did not hesitate to throw back the words that the Ace of the Far East had once said about her.

His almond-shaped eyes rippling with mirth, He Zhichu laughed out loud. “Mr. Peter, the most important thing for a person is to keep your word. You brought a partner, so how can you leave her alone?”

The few of them looked into the ballroom and averted their gazes at the same time.

Mrs. Linda was at ease, and the brightest star in the ballroom was her.

She was dancing like glue with the American ambassador, Hunter, and they could not be separated.

The Ace of the Far East sat down on the sofa next to Gu Nianzhi’s wheelchair, looked up at her leg, and said, “Don’t come out to such an occasion before your injury is healed. There are too many people, and it’s hard to control. If you bump into something...”

He Zhichu did not wait for him to finish and interrupted him with a sullen expression on his face, “Mr. Peter, you’re being too controlling. In my territory, no matter how many people there are, it’s not hard to control.”

“Really?” The Ace of the Far East tutted and retorted him professionally, “I’ve asked around about lawyer Gu. She went missing from your house eight years ago, right? I heard it was at her twelfth birthday party?”

He Zhichu’s face turned as black as the bottom of a pot. “That was just an accident! And I won’t make that mistake again!”

“But why do you have to give others a chance by making a mistake?” Ace of the Far East was aggressive and did not seem to want to give up on the topic. “The best defense is to not give the other party a chance to take advantage of you. Don’t you understand that?”

Gu Nianzhi saw He Zhichu’s sudden change in expression and quickly pulled his hand. She calmly said to the Ace of the Far East “Mr. Peter, we can’t stop eating because we choked on food. We can’t hide in the house forever just because we might make a mistake, right? Besides, I believe that the best defense is offense. So, I won’t hide and not see anyone.”

This Ace of the Far East had the face of Major General Huo, but he actually had a completely different way of doing things...

Gu Nianzhi sighed in her heart and lost interest in continuing to talk to him.

“Oh?” The Ace of the Far East shook his head. He said casually, “But this kind of attack should be carried out with thorough preparations. Otherwise, looking at you now, I have hundreds of ways to take your life without making a sound. Do you think you have the confidence to avoid it?”

Gu Nianzhi: “...”

She rolled her eyes unhappily. “If you wanted to take my life, do you believe that you won’t even be able to get close to me?”

The Ace of the Far East raised an eyebrow.

Not long after, a group of people came over to rest in the small living room.

The prime minister’s niece, Xie Qingying, was one of them.

She walked over gracefully and nodded at He Zhichu. “Young Master He, long time no see.”

He Zhichu also nodded and smiled at her. He politely said, “Miss Xie is even more beautiful now.”

Xie Qingying smiled and said, “I just saw Miss Wen and Dean Qin go out. I think they left.”

He Zhichu’s eyes flashed, and his attitude became even more amiable. “Miss Xie has a good relationship with Wen Shouyi and Dean Qin?”

“I did have a good relationship with Miss Wen a few years ago. After she went abroad, we had no contact for a while. Now that we meet again, we are still a little unfamiliar with each other.”

He Zhichu exchanged a few pleasantries with her, and Xie Qingying was invited out to dance again. He took out his phone and checked the security cameras at the entrance.

He saw Wen Shouyi and Qin Yaoguang get into the Qin family’s car and leave.

Gu Nianzhi thought about what the Ace of the Far East had just said, and looked at He Zhichu thoughtfully. She suddenly asked, “Young Master He, how exactly did I go missing eight years ago? Can you tell me again?”
