Hello, Mr. Major General

Chapter 1580: Don’t Let A Single Person Off The Hook

Wen Shouyi’s heart sank, but she quickly calmed down when she saw Gu Nianzhi’s sly smile. She picked up her phone and opened her contact list to look for her phone number, then said nonchalantly, “It’s up to you. After all, you cut Auntie Qin’s hand right after you come back. It’s not certain who will hurt who…”

“Really?” Gu Nianzhi smiled sweetly. She slung the LV Twist handbag on her shoulder and was about to leave as well. “Then tell her to sue me. I’ll accompany her to the end.”

She turned around and left the main hall of the Imperial City Intermediate People’s Court. She got into the car that was waiting for her outside.

Wen Shouyi happened to walk out of the main entrance. She saw the license plate of the car and pursed her lips in disdain.

Was she trying to use the He family’s influence to put her parents in jail?

He Zhichu had already broken off his engagement with her, but she was still staying at the He family’s house to freeload…

Wen Shouyi narrowed her eyes and the phone in her hand rang.

She quickly swiped it open to answer the call and hurried down the stairs. She said, “Auntie Qin, Gu Nianzhi has just reported the case to the police. The police have launched an open investigation and the court has issued an arrest warrant for my parents.”

Qin Yaoguang had just come out of the bathroom. Her head was wrapped in a white towel, and she was wearing a high-count, high-density island cotton bathrobe made in the West Indies.

This cotton fabric was extremely expensive. It was usually used by luxury brands to make custom-made clothes.

However, Qin Yaoguang casually wore a bathrobe made of this fabric. She sat leisurely in front of the dressing table and started to fiddle with her own bottles and jars.

Her skincare products were all made by herself. Biological beauty skincare products were so effective that everyone who used them knew.

She also had the capital to make her own beauty skincare products.

Besides being a world-renowned brain surgeon, Qin Yaoguang, the Dean of the Qin Corporation’s Private Hospital, was also a biomedical expert. She had even made epoch-making contributions in genetic engineering.

Making some biological beauty skincare products was just a piece of cake.

She warmed up a few drops of beauty oil in her palm and carefully pressed them on her face. She was on the phone with Wen Shouyi while wearing a Bluetooth headset.

“Why are you so anxious? If she wants to sue, go ahead. Weren’t you a top student at Harvard Law School? You have a lawyer’s license in the United States and the Huaxia Empire, and you’ve won so many lawsuits. Why are you afraid of her?”

Qin Yaoguang looked at herself in the mirror. She touched her voluptuous lips, which were the same shape as Gu Nianzhi’s, and smiled in satisfaction.

Wen Shouyi was anxious to see that Qin Yaoguang did not take it seriously.

A lawsuit was not something that could be won by comparing who had graduated from law school.

Every lawsuit was different. It was because she knew this that she did not look down on Gu Nianzhi.

She had to admit that although Gu Nianzhi’s character was not that great, she was still talented in terms of legal affairs and could perform very well on the spot.

She could look down on Gu Nianzhi’s character, but she had to value her professional abilities.

“Auntie Qin, that’s true, but it’s always good to be prepared.” Wen Shouyi looked around. “Is it convenient for you? I’ll come to your house to discuss how we should deal with this?”

Qin Yaoguang’s hand paused for a moment. Looking at her natural beauty in the mirror without any makeup, she frowned and refused, “What would you do here? I don’t know the law, so I can’t help you.”

“Auntie Qin… But…” Wen Shouyi was tongue-tied. “But…”

“But what?” Qin Yaoguang frowned even more. “Think of a way to defend your parents and don’t come to work in the hospital for the time being. Also, that case has nothing to do with me. It was Gu Xiangwen who kidnapped his daughter. Don’t call me so frequently.”

After saying that, Qin Yaoguang hung up and blocked Wen Shouyi’s phone number.

She sat in front of the dressing table in a daze for a while and said to herself, “Yes, it was never my fault. From the beginning to the end, it was that crazy Gu Xiangwen who did it…”

..

Wen Shouyi called Qin Yaoguang again and realized that she couldn’t get through.

She stood at the steps of the Imperial City Intermediate People’s Court and looked at the traffic on the road in a daze. She gripped her phone tightly.

She understood what Qin Yaoguang meant.

This matter had nothing to do with her.

So she could only insist that Gu Xiangwen was the mastermind.

Gu Xiangwen was already dead. Even if he was still alive to testify, she still had the ability to pin everything on him!

Wen Shouyi made up her mind. She walked to the parking lot, picked up her car, and drove it to her apartment.

Ever since Gu Nianzhi left, she had almost replaced Gu Nianzhi in the He family.

She had worked very hard herself. She had taken the opportunity to get her degree and become a lawyer. She had earned a lot of money and bought herself several houses. She had long since stopped living in the He family’s worker’s house.

It had been a coincidence yesterday. Because Gu Nianzhi had been in a wheelchair. she went back to ask her mother what had happened.

However, her mother had been locked up for a few hours and had only been released late at night.

She had waited until midnight. After she finally saw her mother and asked about the situation, she did not go back. Instead, she stayed at her parents’ house for the night.

She had not expected that Gu Nianzhi would be so impatient after just one night.

She called the police, issued an arrest warrant, and made an arrest, all in one go.

This was too overbearing!

Wen Shouyi drove back in her car indignantly.

..

Gu Nianzhi returned to the He family’s home. She had just pushed open the door to her room when she received a call from He Zhichu.

“You’re back? How did it go?” He Zhichu had already gone to his office in the military base and was not at home.

Gu Nianzhi threw her Louis Vuitton bag onto the sofa and laid down. She smiled and made a “V” sign. “Everything is going well!”

“That’s good.” He Zhichu smiled faintly. He signed the documents and said, “Is the court ready to schedule the trial? When will you be appearing in court?”

“That depends on the court, but I can apply for an expedited trial.” Gu Nianzhi was already prepared. “This is a reopening of a cold case and a case involving a minor. According to the rules, it can be brought forward.”

“That’s good. Wen Shouyi will probably be her parents’ defense lawyer. Do you know Wen Shouyi’s style of defense?” He Zhichu finished signing the documents and planned to teach Gu Nianzhi a lesson called “Wen Shouyi’s defense skills”.

Gu Nianzhi grimaced and said with a smile, “No, no, we don’t have to deal with her yet. If she wants to go to court with me, we’ll have to wait a while.”

He Zhichu, “…”

“I don’t understand.” He Zhichu put down the document and leaned back in his seat. His sparkling eyes were filled with affection that he did not realize. “You don’t think Wen Shouyi will be her parents’ defense lawyer? That’s impossible. Under such circumstances, she doesn’t have to avoid it.”

“I know. She can be a defense lawyer for her own relatives. That’s not against the law here. She just can’t be a defense lawyer for the other party. If the other party in the lawsuit against her client is her relative, then she needs to avoid it. t’s good that you know.” He Zhichu’s slender, fair fingers tapped lightly on the desk, and he smiled. “Then what’s our lawyer Gu’s plan?”

Gu Nianzhi felt warmth in her heart when she heard this. She couldn’t help thinking that she just didn’t have her mother’s affinity. Her father, Young Master He, Brother Ze, and Brother Xiong had all given her their love and care.

“I have my own plan.” Gu Nianzhi smiled and stood up to stretch. She picked up the Louis Vuitton handbag on the sofa and walked out the door. “When she applies to be her parents’ defense lawyer, I’ll veto it with one vote.”

“Then I’ll wait and see.” He Zhichu smiled as well. “What do you want for lunch? Do you want me to pick you up for lunch?”

“No, I want to go for a walk by myself. I’ll think about it and get ready for court.” Gu Nianzhi implicitly rejected him. In fact, she wanted to talk to Lu Jin about the case.

She had come to the imperial capital from C City yesterday. Lu Yuan and Lu Jin had followed her.

She just did not know where they were staying in the imperial capital, and did not dare to ask him in front of He Zhichu. She was afraid that he would be suspicious.

He Zhichu felt a little regretful, but he did not insist. He said, “Drive my car. Be careful and don’t go too far.”

He Zhichu’s license plate allowed him to do whatever he wanted in the imperial capital, so it made him feel assured.

“Okay, thank you, Young Master He.” Gu Nianzhi smiled and hung up the phone. She quickened her pace and ran downstairs.

Gu Nianzhi took the car from the He family’s garage and drove out. She planned to take a few rounds on the street first.

Just as she drove out of the secluded alley where the He family’s mansion was located, across the road, Gu Nianzhi caught a glimpse of a man with his arms crossed and his long legs stretched out. He was leaning against the front door of a modified Grand Cherokee luxury SUV.

It was the KGB’s Ace of the Far East, Peter aka Huo Shaoheng, who was also the new Deputy Chief Counsel of C City.

The corners of her eyes twitched.

What was the Ace of the Far East doing here?

Not far away was the heavily guarded He family mansion.

Of course, he was now a diplomat so he had diplomatic immunity.

She pretended not to see him and drove straight ahead.

The Ace of the Far East, who was standing across the street, smiled. He turned around and got into the car. He slammed on the accelerator and started the engine. He drove over quickly and followed behind her unhurriedly.

Gu Nianzhi: “…”

She stepped on the gas and sped up to the highway.

However, no matter if she was on a crowded commercial street or speeding down the highway, the luxury SUV behind her followed her like a shadow. She couldn’t shake it off.

An hour later, Gu Nianzhi was discouraged. She drove off the highway and planned to go back to the He family’s house.

Just then, she heard her phone ring. It was her father’s special ringtone.

Gu Nianzhi was overjoyed and quickly connected the call with her Bluetooth headset.

Lu Jin stood in front of the French window of a high-rise apartment with his phone in his hand. He asked with a smile, “Nianzhi, when are you coming home?”

Gu Nianzhi: “…”

“Where are you guys?” She quickly said, “I was thinking of sending you guys a message later.”

Lu Jin smiled as he sent the address to her phone. “I guess you’re almost done with your work. Boss Lu is cooking now. What do you want to eat?”

Gu Nianzhi felt hungry as soon as food was mentioned. She couldn’t help asking, “… Does President Lu know how to make paella?”

Lu Jin laughed heartily. “… He has to even if he doesn’t. I’ll go look for the recipe and let him learn it on the spot.”

Gu Nianzhi: “…”

After the call, Gu Nianzhi was relieved to see that the large and flashy luxury modified SUV from the Cherokee had disappeared from the rearview mirror.

Looking at the address on her phone, Gu Nianzhi quickly turned around and drove towards Lu Jin and Lu Yuan’s apartment.

What she didn’t know was that while she was concentrating on her phone call, the Ace of the Far East had quickly swapped cars with his own people.

Now he was driving the most ordinary black Volkswagen sedan, and continued to follow her car at a leisurely pace.
