Chapter 2086 How Can I Give Up

Xie Qingying was with her best friend at this time.

Although it was New Year's Eve, knowing that she had broken up with He Zhichu, her best friend came to accompany her immediately after the New Year's Eve dinner with her family.

The two sat on the bed in Xie Qingying's bedroom, chatting while swiping their phones.

The best friend is worried that Xie Qingying will not think about it for a while and will do something stupid, so she already plans to stay with her during the New Year.

Xie Qingying was calmer than she had imagined, but she was always in a low mood, and reading those sand sculpture cartoons couldn't make her laugh out loud.

The best friend was thinking about how to comfort her when she heard Xie Qingying's cell phone ring.

Xie Qingying took a look, frowned, and said, "Who is this? Is it a prank?"

What appeared on the mobile phone was a strange phone number, not the numbering method of any country they were familiar with.

The best friend looked at it, and thought deeply: "...Could it be He Shao who called to ask for peace? I'm sorry to use his own number, so I used a special device to hide my number?"

Xie Qingying gave her a sideways glance, and said flatly: "I've given up on it, but you haven't given up yet?"

"Aren't I worried about you?" My best friend hurriedly raised her hand in surrender, "I won't say anything more, you and Young Master He's problem, you can solve it yourself."

Xie Qingying snorted, stared at the number for a while, hesitating whether to answer it or not.

In just a short while, that number hung up.

She couldn't tell whether she felt relief or disappointment.

But before she could sort out her thoughts, the number called again.

This time, Xie Qingying didn't hesitate anymore and connected the phone.

A voice that she didn't like very much but had a deep memory came from the other end of the phone quickly: "... Thank you, cousin? I'm Gu Nianzhi. Happy Chinese New Year."

Xie Qingying was slightly stunned: "... Gu Nianzhi? Is it really Gu Nianzhi? Where have you been? You didn't come back during the Chinese New Year? Would you mind letting your brother celebrate the New Year alone?"

Gu Nianzhi: "..."

It was indeed different from what He Zhichu said.

Her eyebrows moved slightly, and she still said unhurriedly: "Why? Isn't my brother accompanied by cousin Xie? I heard that you are engaged, and I haven't congratulated you yet!"

Xie Qingying's face darkened, thinking that Gu Nianzhi came to laugh at her for watching her joke, and said coldly: "I heard that I'm engaged? Who did you hear from?"

"Of course it is He Shao." Gu Nianzhi said with a light smile, "If He Shao didn't say it, how would I know?"

Xie Qingying understood somewhat, and the anger in her heart dissipated, "...Did you call your brother just now?"

"Well, I just celebrated the New Year. I said I wanted to talk to Cousin Xie, but my brother said that you were celebrating the New Year with your own family, and you weren't at He's."

Gu Nianzhi didn't say all that He Zhichu said, she subconsciously felt that she should save some face for He Zhichu.

Xie Qingying was puzzled for a while, then said lightly: "Thank you, happy new year to you too. Also, I have broken off the engagement with your brother, so there is no need to call me in the future, and there is no need to pay New Year greetings to me. That's it."

She hurriedly wanted to hang up the phone, because she really didn't know how to face Gu Nianzhi.

Gu Nianzhi's heart sank, thinking that it was indeed so.

Seeing that she didn't have much time, she was not polite, and quickly said: "Even if cousin Xie breaks off the engagement with my brother, you are still my cousin. Is it okay for relatives to call for New Year's greetings? Well, I'm going too Let's talk later after dinner. Thank you, cousin, goodbye."

As soon as the voice fell, ten minutes were up.

The magnetic field ran out of energy, and her phone was cut off.

Can no longer dial to the opposite world.

Gu Nianzhi let out a long breath, feeling a little headache thinking about it.

How did that happen?

Well, the engagement was broken and we broke up.

I don't know what happened.

He Zhichu even tried to cover up Taiping and hide it from her...

Gu Nianzhi slammed his fist on the window sill.

She still wanted to make a call, but Song Jinning probably didn't have permission.

Only when her father Lu Jin sobered up tomorrow, she would try to ask her to see if her father could contact the world over there.

After Huo Shaoheng and Lu Yuan took Lu Jin to the guest room and settled them down, they didn't see Gu Nianzhi and Song Jinning when they came out.

He searched around the house, saw Song Jinning who was slightly drunk, asked, and found out that Gu Nianzhi was in Song Jinning's study and laboratory.

Although Song Jinning kept smiling and refused to say what Gu Nianzhi was doing, Huo Shaoheng knew what Gu Nianzhi was doing without asking.

He didn't mean to hinder, and of course he didn't mean to encourage.

It's fine to pretend not to know.

Huo Shaoheng returned to the restaurant and chatted casually with Lu Yuan.

After chatting for a while, fifteen minutes passed, and Gu Nianzhi still hadn't come out.

Song Jinning yawned one after another, and almost fell asleep leaning on Lu Yuan's shoulder.

Lu Yuan looked distressed, and said to Huo Shaoheng: "You can do what you want, it's too late, I'll send Jinning upstairs."

Huo Shaoheng nodded, "Don't worry about me, I'll take Nianzhi home later."

Lu Yuan glanced at him and said deliberately: "It's so late, let's stay here. I'll go back tomorrow."

Huo Shaoheng shook his head calmly, "It's okay, today's New Year's Eve, it's busy outside, it's convenient for us to go back."

Lu Yuan smiled, said no more, half supported Song Jinning and went upstairs.

Huo Shaoheng sat alone in the dining room for a while before going to Song Jinning's study and laboratory and knocking on the door.

Gu Nianzhi came back to her senses, thinking it was Song Jinning who had come to urge her, so she quickly jumped off the window sill, went to the door and opened the door, saying, "Ms. Song, can I..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw that it was Huo Shaoheng standing at the door, not Song Jinning.

Gu Nianzhi clasped his fingers in embarrassment, twisted them in front of him, and said embarrassingly, "It's Huo Shao..."

"Well, you seem a little disappointed." Huo Shaoheng looked at her calmly, "Have you finished calling your brother?"

Gu Nianzhi was taken aback, "How do you know?! Ms. Song said it?"

Unexpectedly, you are such a Ms. Song!

Gu Nianzhi was slandering, Huo Shaoheng took her hand, walked into Song Jinning's study and laboratory, and said slowly: "Ms. Song didn't say, I guess."

Gu Nianzhi: "..."

"Really guess?" She looked at him suspiciously, "How could you guess this? I don't believe it."

No one has ever mentioned her idea, can Huo Shaoheng read minds? How do you know?

Huo Shaoheng lowered his head and pulled her arm away, wrapped it around his waist, and said calmly: "You coaxed Ms. Song to come to her laboratory while I was away. Could it be that you are here to do high-energy physics experiments?"

Gu Nianzhi: "..."

She curled her lips, "Why am I coaxing Ms. Song while you're not around?"

"I obviously asked Ms. Song for help!"

Huo Shaoheng smiled slightly, "Well, did you admit it?"

Gu Nianzhi thought about He Zhichu's situation, and felt that he should confess and be lenient, maybe Huo Shaoheng could help her.

Gu Nianzhi said honestly, "I'm asking Ms. Song for help. I'm calling my brother."

"I really don't know if I don't fight. I was shocked when I hit him. He was engaged to Cousin Xie, and then broke off the engagement. It's not even a year!"

Huo Shaoheng was not surprised at all, and said calmly: "... He Shao can persist for so long, it can be regarded as giving Xie Qingying face."

"What's the meaning?"

"Why do you think you are less with Xie Qingying? Is it because he loves her?" Huo Shaoheng nodded Gu Nianzhi's forehead, "Are you stupid? That is to reassure his father and not force you to continue to be with him. Use Xie Qingying As a shield."

"Now that his father has passed away, Xie Qingying's shield is of course dispensable."

"In other words, he no longer has to worry about who is forcing himself to show affection to Xie Qingying."

If it wasn't for knowing that Gu Nianzhi and He Zhichu were siblings, Huo Shaoheng wouldn't have said a word of these words.

Gu Nianzhi was speechless for a long time, and after a while, he said quietly: "...I understand where Cousin Xie's vague hostility towards me comes from..."

Gu Nianzhi looked sideways at Huo Shaoheng, with a smile that was not a smile, "Then Cousin Xie has a good temper. If you use me as a shield to block the knife for whom, I will definitely fight to the end!"

Huo Shaoheng hugged her even tighter, bowed his head and kissed her passionately, and said hoarsely in her ear: "...how can I be willing?"
