Chapter 2040 The Fisherman and the Fish (3)
Happiness is like a midnight firework that catches people off guard, and it just falls from the sky.
Guo Huining seemed to be dumbfounded, his heart was pounding, and there was the sound of gurgling blood pulses in his eardrums.
For a moment, she could barely see or hear, and was completely immersed in Huo Guanchen's deep question.
Until Huo Guanchen's voice rang in my ears again, "...You haven't spoken for so long, it seems that I am overthinking."
"No, no, no! You didn't!" Guo Huining came back to his senses, and hurriedly said loudly: "I am willing! I am willing! I am willing!"
She spoke so eagerly that she almost stuttered.
But she couldn't take this into consideration, and just couldn't wait to pour out all her feelings.
Huo Guanchen twitched the corners of his mouth, but still listened without saying a word, and finally said gently: "It's good that you don't think I'm old."
"Why would I think you are old?!" Guo Huining became excited, "I am in my thirties, and you are only in your fifties. You are not old at all!"
"Right now, old men in their sixties, seventies, or even eighties still want to find a juicy girl in their twenties..."
Huo Guanchen smiled and nodded: "Well, I will accompany you next week, but I only have less than twenty minutes."
"Twenty minutes is enough!" Guo Huining was so excited that he almost circled the room while holding his mobile phone. "Then we made an appointment to attend together next Friday evening?"
"Okay." Huo Guanchen said briefly, "I'll ask my secretary to mark down the time and pick you up at Xishan Villa when the time comes."
"Okay." Guo Huining's voice was so gentle that water could flow out.
After hanging up the phone, she glanced at the mirror on the dressing table, and was stunned by her bright eyes and ruddy skin.
Sure enough, love is the best skin care product for women!
...
Time flies so fast when you are in a good mood.
In a blink of an eye, next Friday is here, and Guo Huining has been busy with big purchases this week and a half, and it took him a long time to choose a suitable evening dress.
If it wasn't for the tight schedule, she would have flown to Europe to order an evening dress.
Because this Christmas party was going to be special to her.
It was the night when she and Huo Guanchen officially confirmed their relationship, and it was also a turning point in her life, even if it was a bit more expensive, it didn't matter.
She woke up early in the morning and drove into the city, found the beauty salon she was most familiar with, and started the whole body maintenance program.
She must appear in front of everyone in her best condition.
...
In the evening, Huo Guanchen's car stopped in front of his private house in Xishan Villa on time, waiting for Guo Huining to come out.
Guo Huining didn't make him wait too long, and soon walked out of the villa gate in his favorite royal blue LV evening dress and cashmere coat.
When she came to Huo Guanchen's car, she bent down and knocked on the window, and nodded with a smile.
Huo Guanchen's driver lowered the window, and Huo Guanchen's handsome face appeared from the rear window. He took a look at Guo Huining and boasted, "Very beautiful."
The smile on Guo Huining's face grew wider.
Walking to the other side and opening the rear door, she sat directly in the rear seat, next to Huo Guanchen.
Huo Guanchen moved to the side indiscriminately, as if to make room for her, but in fact the distance between the two was already very large.
Guo Huining didn't notice this at all, her mind was full of fantasies about a fulfilling life today.
The car sped all the way, and it didn't take long to arrive at the entrance of the Sheraton Hotel in the Western City of the Imperial Capital.
The Christmas party of Carlyle's Huaxia Branch was held here.
This kind of large international investment company is all about capital operations, and the people who come and go with it are naturally rich or expensive, and they are all among the top figures in the financial world.
Military leaders like Huo Guanchen are not only rare, but also unique.
So when he got out of the car with Guo Huining, it suddenly caused a sensation.
The guards around Huo Guanchen instantly built a human wall, separating the surrounding journalists far away.
Guo Huining smiled reservedly,
Holding Huo Guanchen's arm, he walked boldly into the gate of the Sheraton Hotel.
Inside the door is her familiar clothes and temples, cups and cups intertwined, chatting and laughing with scholars, and exchanges without white people.
This is the world she belongs to.
After Huo Guanchen and her came in, the big bosses of Carlyle's Huaxia District immediately walked over quickly, and respectfully welcomed them into the small reception room inside.
Compared with the hall outside, the decoration here is more luxurious, and there are fewer people inside.
Kevin sat in the top position inside, surrounded by a few fresh and beautiful peripheral female models.
On such occasions, they are at their best.
Seeing Huo Guanchen in military uniform come in, the eyes of these peripheral female models brightened, and they scrambled to surround him.
But they couldn't get close to Huo Guanchen and Guo Huining, so they could only stare at Guo Huining unwillingly.
Guo Huining's mood couldn't be better.
She took Huo Guanchen directly to Kevin, and said with a smile, "Mr. Kevin, thanks to your help a few days ago."
Kevin stood up, stretched out his hand to shake Guo Huining's hand first, and then looked at Huo Guanchen with a smile, "This is...?"
Guo Huining glanced at Huo Guanchen quietly, and said, "This is Mr. Huo, my boyfriend. The last time Mr. Kevin was asked to find Dr. Tony, it was to treat Mr. Huo's father."
Otherwise, with the positions of Dou Aiyan and Deputy Director Jia, it would be impossible to invite Dr. Tony.
At first, Guo Huining thought it was Dou Aiyan's energy, but later it became clear that it was actually Kevin who was the one who made the connection, but he hadn't shown up at that time, and it was Dou Aiyan and Deputy Director Jia who were operating at the front desk.
Huo Guanchen laughed, and took the initiative to shake hands with Kevin: "Thank you, Mr. Kevin, for your help, otherwise my father would still be in a vegetable state."
"What are you talking about, Mr. Huo? It's our honor to help your father." Kevin was still elegant and handsome, but his eyes were a little more courteous.
This coincided with Guo Huining's conjecture.
No matter how rich people are, they have to bow their heads in front of power.
She held Huo Guanchen's arm even tighter.
But Huo Guanchen said that he could only stay for twenty minutes.
Twenty minutes to five minutes later, his life secretary had already reminded: "Chief, we have to go, the military department still has a meeting."
"It's late at night, and your military department still has a meeting?" Kevin asked casually, but also curiously.
"I'm sorry, this is our job. Please forgive me for not having anything to say." Huo Guanchen's life secretary was tight-lipped and did not gossip with Kevin.
Huo Guanchen didn't say much, nodded, and said to Guo Huining: "I'll go first, you can play more. I will leave you a car and a driver, and I can take you home any night."
Guo Huining smiled and nodded repeatedly, "Okay, Guanchen thank you."
This was the first time she called him that in front of Huo Guanchen, Huo Guanchen paused, the expression on his face didn't change at all, he turned and left with a smile.
Just as he walked out of the small reception room with his life secretary and guards, he suddenly found another noise at the entrance of the hall.
At this time, those executives came in surrounded by two people.
Huo Guanchen stopped and took a look, and was surprised to see that it was Speaker Long and Gu Nianzhi!
Speaker Long had a childish face and hefty hair, smiling brightly.
Gu Nianzhi did not wear an evening dress like other ladies, but wore a set of custom-made ladies' professional trousers. There was no other decoration on her whole body, only the watch on her left wrist was self-contained, showing her wealth and heritage.
Huo Guanchen frowned almost imperceptibly.
Kevin walked out with Guo Huining with a smile.
Guo Huining raised his eyes and saw Gu Nianzhi, his good mood for the night was ruined.
"What's going on? Why did you invite her?" Guo Huining whispered towards Gu Nianzhi.
"Our company wants to expand its business in China. Of course, China must first remove the restrictions on foreign investment in the financial industry." Kevin quietly explained, "We must establish a good relationship with the parliament, otherwise where do we start?"
Guo Huining was angry and annoyed: "...but you invited me today!"
Kevin: "..."
If it wasn't for him to let people know that Guo Huining and her new boyfriend, Admiral Huo, would attend together today, he still wouldn't be able to catch the big fish Gu Nianzhi...
It is well known that Gu Nian, one of the chief counsels of the upper house of parliament, never attended such occasions.
But this time, Kevin knew that she would definitely come.
Gu Nianzhi stood beside Chairman Long, chatting with people, laughing and greeting, while looking at the whole hall calmly.
Huo Guanchen and his party who came out of the small reception room first caught her attention.
Looking at Guo Huining behind Huo Guanchen, Gu Nianzhi narrowed his eyes.
It turned out to be true...
Admiral Huo was actually with Guo Huining.
Two people attending this kind of occasion together, even if the relationship is not boyfriend and girlfriend, it is not ordinary.
Huo Guanchen was also taken aback when he saw Gu Nianzhi, something flashed through his mind.
The other party's target is actually Gu Nianzhi? !
Could it be that even Song Jinning and himself are each other's fronts?
But he heard from Huo Shaoheng that those people who coveted Gu Nianzhi have already been eradicated by his good son...
Besides, Gu Xiangwen is dead, most of his belongings have been donated to the country, why are there still people staring at Gu Nianzhi?
Huo Guanchen's thoughts returned to Lu Yuan in an instant.
There is no doubt that Lu Yuan is his elder brother Huo Guanyuan.
And his elder brother disappeared suddenly because of the failure of the experiment eighteen years ago.
After eighteen years, she came back with Gu Nianzhi and her "father" Lu Jin.
Could it be that Gu Nianzhi also had something to do with the failure of the experiment back then?
But she was only two years old at that time...
Gu Nianzhi looked over curiously at this moment, and Huo Guanchen smiled and nodded at her.
The moment they met each other, Huo Guanchen had already thought so much in his mind.
He originally thought that he already knew the purpose of the other party, but now he was not so sure.
Gu Nianzhi bowed his head and spoke to Chairman Long, then walked towards Huo Guanchen.
Huo Guanchen saw those people looking over again, so he had no choice but to turn around and walk back to the small reception room just now.
Kevin put his hands in his trouser pockets and asked politely, "Mr. Huo, please stay a little longer."
Huo Guanchen said calmly: "When you see an acquaintance, just say a word and leave."
Guo Huining walked up anxiously, holding Huo Guanchen's arm tightly.
