Chapter 466 Seven Years

Gu Nianzhi shook his head and said listlessly, "...No."

"Then what's wrong with you?" He Zhichu's twinkling peach blossom eyes were full of concern, but the corners of his tightly pursed lips looked extremely cold.

"It's okay, I'm depressed periodically. It'll be fine after a while." Gu Nianzhi was already familiar with He Zhichu's slightly contradictory temperament, which was cold on the outside and hot on the inside. He raised his head and tried to smile at He Zhichu.

"It's your period?" He Zhichu raised his eyebrows, "If you don't feel well, you can rest for a few days."

Gu Nianzhi's head was covered with black lines, she didn't dare to look up into He Zhichu's eyes, and said embarrassingly, "...No, that's not what I meant."

He Zhichu knew that he would be wrong, and he was a little embarrassed. He got up and went to the kitchen, and brought a small plate of muffins. "Have some muffins. I remember you said last time that this brand is the best."

Gu Nianzhi looked at it, and it was her favorite brand.

She pursed her lips, reached out to take a piece and ate it slowly, and then drank some warm milk, feeling much better.

He Zhichu could tell that Gu Nianzhi had something on his mind, but she didn't want to say it, and he didn't bring up the question any more, instead turning the topic to Gu Nianzhi's studies and work.

"Nearly, you are doing very well in both your studies and your teaching assistant job, and you are doing well. Have you ever thought about finding time to be an intern at a law firm?" He Zhichu took out a stack of cases and put them in front of her, "Do you have any questions?" Just take a look, there are not only cases within the Chinese Empire, but also cases abroad. I hope that if you have time, try to take the Bar exam in the United States, so that you can apply for the qualification to practice law in the United States at the same time."

This proposal is very good. Gu Nianzhi already has the qualification to practice law in China Empire. If she can still have the qualification to practice law in the United States, she will have more job prospects in the future.

Gu Nianzhi felt hot, and hurriedly said, "Bar in the United States is divided by state. Many states require credits in the United States. I'm afraid I'm not eligible."

"New York State does not require credits in the United States, and they also recognize foreign law credits. If you want to take the test, send your transcripts to their designated international transcript evaluation agency for evaluation, and convert them into equivalent American credits, which meet the requirements. You can take the exam after that." He Zhichu was very familiar with this part, and he spoke in an orderly manner.

"That's it, I haven't thought about it carefully. But if Professor He thinks I can give it a try, I can go back and prepare." Huo Shaoheng is about to go on a mission, and Gu Nianzhi has more time, and she also wants to find something to let Get busy, so you don't have to think about Huo Shaoheng all day long.

"Well, your grades must meet their requirements, and your English is much better than your classmates, just like your mother tongue." He Zhichu picked up his own coffee, from the rising heat Staring at Gu Nianzhi.

Gu Nianzhi hesitated for a moment, remembering that He Zhichu said that she would ask people related to her life experience. These days have passed, and she has been waiting patiently, but He Zhichu has not moved at all.

She finally asked, "Professor He, last time you said...you want to ask someone related to my life experience for me, what's going on now?"

"You really want to know?" He Zhichu lowered his eyes, not looking at Gu Nianzhi's longing eyes, "But your memory still hasn't recovered, even if I tell you, will you believe it?"

Gu Nianzhi: "..."

This is a problem.

She knew that except for Huo Shaoheng, she would not easily believe anything others said, including He Zhichu.

But He Zhichu made her feel more and more familiar and more secure. Before she knew it, she had trusted He Zhichu more than before.

Of course, this kind of trust is not enough for her to believe everything He Zhichu said without reservation.

But it's always good to have more clues, isn't it?

She can analyze it by herself and use reasoning to draw conclusions. Even if her memory cannot be recovered, she can still know what to do. She doesn't want to continue to be like before, with her heart like duckweed, going around and around, floating on the water without a foundation.

Gu Nianzhi picked up the hot milk and took a few more sips,

The warm milk warmed her stomach and calmed her down.

She raised her eyes and looked at He Zhichu steadfastly: "As long as you tell me, I have a brain, and I can analyze it myself, whether it is true or false."

Of course He Zhichu was not satisfied with this answer, but what could he do?

It can only be done step by step.

It would be great if Gu Nianzhi's memory could be recovered, but the medical conditions here probably aren't enough for her to recover.

Anyway, she just needs a well-known identity right now, so she should act urgently, so let's do this first...

He Zhichu crossed his legs, sat on the large single sofa, took a look at Gu Nianzhi, took out his mobile phone, and dialed a number.

After dialing for a long time, the phone was finally answered.

"Lawyer He, call me at this hour, what's the matter?" Gu Yanran's slightly hoarse voice came from the other end of the phone, naturally full of lazy charm.

He Zhichu looked at the call tracking and location display on his phone, and was a little surprised: "Are you not in the Huaxia Empire?"

"Yeah, I went back to Barbados the day before yesterday." Gu Yanran was lying on the balcony of her bedroom in Barbados, enjoying the cool breeze and dispelling the heat of the day, and she was in the mood to joke: "What's wrong? Lawyer He misses me?"

He Zhichu twitched the corners of his lips, and his peach blossom eyes twinkled, "Well, I miss you, you are a big client of our firm, everyone misses you."

Gu Yanran giggled, and pulled back the tropical silk robe she was wearing, "Lawyer He, you are too much, so you don't miss me, but my business?"

"Miss Gu is too far-fetched to say that." He Zhichu's voice softened, not so clear and indifferent, showing a bit of politeness to Gu Yanran, "We have known each other for so many years, whether it is personal friendship, Whether it’s business contacts, you’re more familiar with them than others.”

"I know, that's why I dare to joke with Lawyer He..." Gu Yanran changed her position on the reclining chair and lay down, "Okay, let's talk about what Lawyer He has to say."

He Zhichu nodded, "Well, then I won't be polite."

He hesitated for a few seconds, then took out another mobile phone, pulled out a file from it, looked at the screen of that mobile phone, and said to Gu Yanran, "Miss Gu, seven years ago, you became a member of our law firm. Your client is that you entrusted our law firm to act as your representative lawyer to help you handle legal matters related to your sister Gu Nianzhi, right?"

Gu Nianzhi was still in the fog before, not knowing what He Zhichu was laying the groundwork for.

It wasn't until He Zhichu said this that she suddenly raised her head, covered her mouth subconsciously, looked at He Zhichu in surprise, and kept thinking about He Zhichu's words: "...help you deal with it. Legal matters related to your sister Gu Nianzhi...help you deal with legal matters related to your sister Gu Nianzhi..."

Who is this Miss Gu?

Could it be Gu Yanran?

Gu Nianzhi remembered that Gu Yanran had told her personally that she had a younger sister, also named Gu Nianzhi.

At that time, she had told Huo Shaoheng, but after they checked, they found that the two of them were not related by blood, so she didn't care.

Anyway, with so many people in the world, it is not uncommon for them to have the same name.

It's just that when He Zhichu asked this sentence, the meaning was different.

Because Gu Nianzhi already had a preconceived idea that He Zhichu should be an insider of her life experience.

So going around, her background still has something to do with Gu Yanran?

Gu Yanran was also a little surprised on the phone. She was wearing a headset and looked up at the starry sky of Barbados at night. On the dark blue sky, there were stars twinkling. There was the sound of rushing waves, and there were unknown bugs chirping nearby.

Sitting here alone, she seemed to be the only one in the world, and the heights were extremely cold.

"Miss Gu?" He Zhichu waited for a long time, but seeing that Gu Yanran was still silent, he could only urge him again.

Gu Yanran came back to her senses, and said quietly: "Yes, seven years ago, my parents had an accident, and I rushed to deal with it. At that time, my younger sister, who was only twelve years old, stayed in Barbados alone, but disappeared while going to sea. I can't find her anywhere, so I entrust your law firm to help me with the matter. Over the years, I have contacted many well-known detective agencies in the world, and cooperated with the police in the United States and Barbados, but I still can't find my sister. trail."

He Zhichu smiled, with an indescribable pressure in his cold voice: "Yes, Miss Gu, it's been almost seven years."

For missing persons, full seven years and almost seven years are a completely different boundary.

According to the laws of many countries in the world, if a person has been missing for seven years, he can be regarded as a legally dead person.

The case of Gu Yanran's younger sister Gu Nianzhi's disappearance has not been closed yet, but as long as the seven-year period expires and she is still not found, the case will be automatically closed as if she is legally dead.
