Chapter 2014 Bringing Her Down
In the photo, Huo Shaoheng looked solemn and lofty, standing beside a senior police superintendent with his hands behind his back, without any avoidance or disguise.
Standing there like this, watching the police raid King's Landing Law Firm.
The photo should have been taken not long ago. The building of the law firm was brightly lit, reflecting Huo Shaoheng's face, making it hard to stare at.
Huo Guanchen looked at the photo carefully and remained silent.
Guo Huining waited for a long time, but Huo Guanchen didn't make a sound. He was a little anxious, and couldn't help asking: "... General Huo? Are you still there?"
Huo Guanchen let out a "hmm".
"...Then what do you want to do? Shouldn't you..." Guo Huining said hesitantly, not sure whether he should remind him.
She and Huo Guanchen were still in the tacit and ambiguous stage, and she didn't reveal anything, and she was afraid that she was too eager and exchanged shallow words.
But Huo Guanchen only said "Got it", then cut off the phone and continued to sleep.
Guo Huining couldn't sleep anymore.
She tossed and thought about Huo Guanchen's phone call with her countless times, but she couldn't find out Huo Guanchen's true intentions from those few short words.
She waited until dawn with her eyes open, but she hadn't figured out what Huo Guanchen meant.
"I'm convinced... I'm really convinced..." Guo Huining said to himself, but he felt full of challenges.
When she was with Hong Ziqi, she was neither sensible nor skilled in dancing.
But she still attracted Hong Ziqi.
After getting engaged to him, she grew up quickly, followed him in and out of the upper class circles, and soon learned the words and deeds of the upper class.
But if she used this method to deal with Huo Guanchen, it was not enough.
The more he got along with Huo Guanchen, the more worried Guo Huining became, and he couldn't figure out what Huo Guanchen was thinking at all.
She just instinctively thought that Huo Guanchen had feelings for her, otherwise he would not have reached out to save her and help her settle the Hong Group's lawsuit.
The Hong Group stated in its new rumor refuting statement that it reserves the right to pursue Guo Huining's legal responsibility, which is actually a slap in the face of Huo Guanchen.
Guo Huining got up from the bed, went to the bathroom to wash up, changed clothes and came out to have breakfast, then pushed Mr. Huo out for a walk.
That's her main job these days.
Mr. Huo's rehabilitation is in charge of professionals, and she only needs to manage these professionals.
Pushing Mr. Huo through the tree-lined alley in the villa area of Xishan, Guo Huining said intentionally or unintentionally: "...Mr. Huo, Mr. Huo has been really busy in China recently. Isn't he only responsible for foreign affairs? Why is there also domestic action now? He involved?"
Mr. Huo didn't know anything about Junlin Law Firm yet, so he leaned on the wheelchair indifferently, and said flatly: "...if he is authorized, he can also act in the country."
"... Authorization? Who will authorize him?" Guo Huining pretended not to care, and tilted his head with a smile.
"Of course it's the parliament, and the main personnel of the military department also need to sign." Mr. Huo explained in detail.
Of course, what he said is an open procedural issue, not a leak.
As for the deeper confidential content, Mr. Huo has no chance to get in touch with it now.
Therefore, after he talked for a long time, Guo Huining only understood one thing, that is, Huo Shaoheng must not be unable to act in the country. If he is authorized by the parliament, Huo Shaoheng can still act in the country.
Thinking of this, Guo Huining's heart suddenly jumped, and his whole face lit up.
She thought of a way to bring down Gu Nianzhi!
This method is enough to bring her back to her original form, and she can no longer be disgusted by the name of the chief legal adviser of the upper house of parliament!
Guo Huining was very anxious, but he patiently pushed Mr. Huo around outside before returning to Huo Guanchen's private house in Xishan.
After all, Mr. Huo is over eighty years old, and he has gone through two very exhausting stages of vegetative state and waking up, and he is still recuperating.
He returned to the villa and went to sleep in his room.
Now he takes two naps during the day and one in the morning when he comes back from a walk,
Take a nap after lunch at noon.
Sleep helps the body recover.
After Guo Huining sent Mr. Huo back to his room, he hurried out of the villa and called Dou Aiyan in the open space outside.
"...Aiyan, are you free recently? Let's go drink coffee together?" Guo Huining took the initiative to invite.
Dou Aiyan immediately knew that Guo Huining had something to say.
She looked at her schedule and said, "I just have two hours to spare today, do you want to go to the aroma coffee shop to try their new South American black coffee?"
Guo Huining nodded quickly, "Are you going to make an appointment first, or should I go?"
"Let me make an appointment." Dou Aiyan picked up her handbag and car keys, "See you later."
The Fragrance Cafe is located in the Third Ring Road of the Imperial Capital, very close to Carlyle International Investment Co., Ltd. where Dou Aiyan works.
Guo Huining took the car keys and drove almost all the way, reaching the third ring road of the imperial capital within 30 minutes.
Sitting by the window, Dou Aiyan smiled and waved to her, "This way!"
Guo Huining, led by the waiter, came to Dou Aiyan's table, "Aiyan kept you waiting."
"It's okay, I just arrived not long ago." Dou Aiyan said, first ordered coffee and two plates of muffins, and introduced enthusiastically: "The muffins here are very delicious, fragrant and crisp, and melt in your mouth , the sweetness is just right, and it goes best with black coffee.”
Guo Huining didn't come to drink coffee. She casually ordered a cup of mocha, picked up a small muffin and ate it, then said in a low voice, "...Do you know that the Special Operations Department must be authorized by the parliament if it wants to operate in the country?"
"I know. This is an open procedure, and you can find it on the Internet." Dou Aiyan casually took a sip of coffee, paired it with a piece of muffin, wishing she could have another hard-boiled egg. For her, this is the essence of a nutritious breakfast standard.
"So Huo Shao participated in the raid on Junlin Law Firm last night. It may not be illegal at all, but a legal act." Guo Huining further said.
Dou Aiyan choked for a moment, and immediately felt that her favorite muffins were no longer sweet and tasted like wood dregs.
She snorted, and Fox questioned: "...How do you know he has authorization? Who did you hear it from? Or did you see it with your own eyes? Admiral Huo showed it to you?"
Guo Huining covered his mouth with his hand and smiled.
She had bad teeth when she was a child, so she was used to covering her mouth when she smiled.
Even after she made a lot of money and had her teeth straightened, the habits she had developed since she was a child were still revealed inadvertently.
Seeing Guo Huining's petty look, Dou Aiyan looked away disdainfully.
Guo Huining continued: "Admiral Huo didn't say it directly, but he hinted."
"Oh? How did you hint?"
"He didn't say anything... Think about it, if something really happened, he wouldn't be so angry and go to someone to talk it out right away?" Guo Huining felt that he already had a lot of Huo Guanchen's behavior style, "Bitter, he didn't do anything , isn’t it officially this is not a problem?”
"Thinking about it again, why is it not a problem? Of course, Huo Shao has the authorization of the parliament." Guo Huining said affirmatively.
Dou Aiyan raised her head in surprise, and said with a smile: "It's really three days away, so we should treat each other with admiration.—Huining, you can do it!"
The atmosphere between the two quickly improved, and after a few jokes, Guo Huining got to the point and said, "This incident reminded me of an idea. As long as we do well, Gu Nianzhi will be beaten back to his original form. Nothing!"
"Really so powerful? Tell me what you think." Dou Aiyan even turned on the recorder to record Guo Huining's words.
Guo Huining didn't know how to fall for it, she took the recording pen from Dou Aiyan's hand with a smile, tossed it in her hand, and said: "What we two said today can come out of my mouth and into your ear, I don't want to hear someone outside Words of rumor about our conversation today."
"Okay, okay, I get it, tell me quickly, don't be a fool." Dou Aiyan urged impatiently, her beautiful eyes rolled around, and she saw that there were indeed very few people here, and there were no other guests around.
The privacy of speaking should be guaranteed.
Guo Huining put down his coffee, tapped the table with his slender fingers, and said in a low voice proudly: "...conflictofinterest."
"What?" Dou Aiyan didn't notice that Guo Huining stuttered a sentence in English, "What conflictofinterest?"
"The meaning of this sentence is that Gu Nianzhi is in the parliament and Huo Shaoheng is in the special operations department. They are unmarried couples and will get married in the future. They are husband and wife."
Dou Aiyan: "..."
"You don't need to talk nonsense, let's get to the point!"
Guo Huining felt that Dou Aiyan was a bit stupid, but on the surface he said affectionately and patiently: "This is a conflict of interest."
"According to the law, both husband and wife are not allowed to serve at the same time in institutions that have a relationship of interest."
"Huo Shao's Special Operations Department is under the jurisdiction of the parliament in domestic operations. It is for power checks and balances. However, Gu Nianzhi, as his fiancée, also works in the parliament, and is also a high-ranking chief legal adviser. This will affect the relative power of the parliament. Independence of the Special Operations Division.”
Dou Aiyan understood, and said pleasantly, "That's right! Why didn't we expect that?!——If Gu Nianzhi still wants to be with Huo Shao, she can't continue to be the chief legal adviser of the upper house of parliament!"
Guo Huining nodded, and added: "If she still wants to continue to be the chief legal adviser of the upper house of parliament, then she and Huo Shao cannot have a husband and wife relationship, or even a lover relationship!"
"This would constitute a conflict of interest and undermine the independence and legitimacy of the Special Operations Division."
Dou Aiyan burst out laughing, and the few guests in the Fragrance Cafe looked over curiously.
Guo Huining hurriedly blocked her mouth, "Why are you laughing?!——Why don't you hurry up and discuss this matter with others on the Internet?"
"...No, this time, let's look for the Huo family's political opponents first." Dou Aiyan is better than anyone else when it comes to infighting, smiling and stroking her short hair, "People who want the position of Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng There are a lot of them, and now that I have a ready-made handle at my door, I want to see how the two of them can deal with this kind of crisis of choosing one or the other at the same time!"
