Chapter 1777 Passing the Ming Road
"The Chosen One?" Huo Shaoheng shook his head amusedly, "You can really talk nonsense."
"Of course! The Chosen One! Thechosenone!" Gu Nianzhi remembered the origin of this stalk, and could hardly stand up laughing.
"You know people often ask on the Internet 'AmItheonlyone (Is it only me...) What's the matter, and then everyone gets tired of watching it. Whenever someone asks this question, everyone answers:
Yes! (Yes!)
Onlyyou! (Only you!)
Theunique! (You are unique!)
! (You are a limited edition!)
Thechosenone! (You are the chosen one!)
Just like the song "You are electricity, you are light, you are the only myth..." in the old song more than ten years ago. "
Gu Nianzhi blinked at Huo Shaoheng and almost started singing.
Huo Shaoheng quickly called a timeout, "Okay, okay, I know the stalk, let's study why Qin Baye had to buy that piece of land back then."
Gu Nianzhi smiled and sat down opposite Huo Shaoheng, sitting cross-legged on the sofa, resting his chin on his hand, and suggested: "I think it's better to study why Qin Huichang and his wife never agreed to agree to sell the land. And we are Wouldn't it be better to investigate the couple's colleagues, friends and neighbors?"
Huo Shaoheng intuitively felt that there must be a bigger secret hidden behind why Qin Baye had to buy the land, but for now, it is more realistic to investigate why Qin Huichang and his wife never agreed to agree to sell the land.
He nodded, "Okay, continue to investigate tomorrow."
Gu Nianzhi stretched out his hand, and Ling Kong gave him a high-five gesture, and said with a smile: "Okay, continue the investigation according to the list tomorrow!"
With that said, she turned on her phone again and sent a video invitation to Lu Jin.
"Lu Jin" quickly accepted the invitation.
This time, "Lu Jin" was wearing a dark blue pajamas, sitting on the bed, smiling at her, "Never mind you."
Gu Nianzhi made a face, "Dad, is it a coincidence? Are you going to sleep?"
"Just went to bed, and you're going to bed too, it's very late." "Lu Jin" said, and then asked: "Who is next to you? Does Mr. Peter also stay at your place at night?"
Gu Nian subconsciously shook his head, "No, he went back to his consulate general."
"Let him live here with you." "Lu Jin" seemed reasonable this time, "I don't feel at ease if you live alone."
"Ah?" Gu Nianzhi smiled a little guilty, and said in a hey voice, "Dad, you are so kind!"
She blew two kisses to the video, then quickly closed the video call.
Huo Shaoheng looked at her with a smile that was not a smile, and said, "I have passed the enlightenment path?"
"Cut! What a bright way! Didn't you see that my dad only treats you as a bodyguard?" Gu Nianzhi looked disdainful.
She stood up from the sofa, stretched herself, and said, "I'm sleepy too, I'm going to bed. I don't want to have dinner."
Huo Shaoheng disagreed, and grabbed her tightly, "What if you don't have dinner? Let's order takeaway."
There are no ingredients in the refrigerator, and he can't cook, he can't let Gu Nianzhi eat white rice without vegetables.
Gu Nianzhi yawned, "Then I'll take a shower first."
When Huo Shaoheng was ordering food, Gu Nianzhi went to take a shower and almost fell asleep in the bathtub.
After the takeaway was delivered, Huo Shaoheng went downstairs to pick it up, asked Gu Nianzhi to eat it together, then sent her to sleep, and went to the guest room by himself.
Because he was worried about Lu Jin's surveillance, Huo Shaoheng was very disciplined, and he didn't contact Lu Yuan, and he didn't even send a text message.
The two of them had been busy all day, and they were a little sleepy. They had nothing to say all night and had a very comfortable sleep.
After waking up the next day, they began to prepare to visit the second person on their list.
This man is one of the few neighbors who are now fruitful.
But only she is still in the country, the other two went abroad more than ten years ago.
Back then, Qin Huichang and his wife lived in their own house. There was a small western-style building in the center of City C, which was at the innermost end of the alley.
Now this house is worth tens of millions, but it still cannot be compared with the piece of land they sold back then.
Their neighbors are also small western-style buildings like this, they are very close to each other.
But the old man in this neighborhood is also very old, even older than the old man in the nursing home, almost a hundred years old.
Gu Nianzhi looked at the list and sighed, "Why are you so old..."
"The young ones weren't born back then, or even though they were born, they were about the same age as Qin Suwen, so they wouldn't know so much about what happened back then." Huo Shaoheng said, leading Gu Nianzhi into the depths of the alley.
The two of them are dressed as ordinary tourists today, wearing big sunglasses and sun hats, a SLR camera on their chests, Apple watches on their hands, and white Under Armor sneakers on their feet.
The two came to Qin Huichang's small western-style building, and happened to see a recliner in the front yard of the small western-style building next door. A wrinkled old woman was lying on it with her eyes closed, and another middle-aged woman was lying on it. Take care of her.
Gu Nianzhi looked at the appearance of the lying old man, and then looked at the information they found, and was sure that this was the neighbor who was still alive.
It's great that they don't have to try to escape to other people's houses.
Just in the yard, just chat casually as if you are asking for directions.
Gu Nianzhi walked over first, held up the camera, spoke Chinese with a foreign accent, and said bluntly to the middle-aged woman: "Hi, I'm Grace, do you mind if I take a photo of you? You are a perfect match for this ancient building!"
She pretended to be a tourist of Chinese origin, and had an idea to temporarily give herself the English name Grace.
The middle-aged woman laughed loudly and said, "Where is this an ancient building? Foreigners don't know anything, this is obviously a modern building!"
Gu Nianzhi: "..."
This person must be the architect, yes.
Gu Nianzhi pretended not to be fluent in Chinese, smiled sweetly, and said, "Okay, can you let me take a photo?"
"No." The middle-aged woman was merciless, "You can take pictures of these buildings as you like, and you are not allowed to take pictures of people."
Yes, she is still a middle-aged woman who pays great attention to personal privacy.
Gu Nianzhi had no choice but to nod, and pretended to take a few photos in the yard with a SLR camera.
Her camera inevitably focused on the yard next to this yard, which was the yard of Qin Huichang's small western-style building next door.
The front yards of the two families are only separated by a low wall. Standing in this yard, you can clearly see the opposite yard.
Gu Nianzhi gestured for a while, then asked curiously: "The yard over there is even more beautiful! Can I go and see it?!"
The old man who had been sleeping all this time opened his eyes, looked at her quietly for a while, and suddenly asked, "...what did you say your name was?"
"Grace." Gu Nianzhi looked back at him, tilting his head, "Are you awake? What's wrong? Isn't that a good name?"
She stood in the middle of a cluster of blooming hydrangeas, slim and tall, with her back facing the direction of the sun, but her eyes shone brighter than the sun.
The old man squinted his eyes and looked at her, as if he saw a little girl named Grace many years ago, stepping on a small bench from the courtyard wall, smiling and waving at her.
Especially the pair of water chestnut lips with clear lines, when he smiles, there are shallow pear dimples at the corners of the mouth, which is really impressive.
After nearly a century, it is still deeply etched in her mind.
But she didn't speak any more, closed her eyes and fell asleep again.
Gu Nianzhi: "..."
She looked at the middle-aged woman next to the old man in surprise, "Excuse me, old lady...?"
The expression on the middle-aged woman's face softened, and she sighed and said, "Don't mind, my grandmother has dementia, and even our family members can't recognize her."
Gu Nianzhi: "..."
"But she was still talking to me just now..." Gu Nianzhi raised his eyebrows, "It doesn't look like it."
"Sometimes I will say something casually, but I forget it after I finish speaking, don't mind." The middle-aged woman tucked the blanket on the old man's body, as if to see off the guest.
