Chapter 611: Different

The Tan family and the Cai family either stayed in the country wholeheartedly and felt that the Chinese Empire was better than anywhere else, or the only place where they could live permanently was the European continent with a richer cultural heritage.

Huo Shaoheng looked thoughtfully at a large plum vase placed in the corner of the living room. It seemed to have a history of at least a thousand years. It was definitely an antique, and he didn't know how it was brought out.

Tan Guiren followed Huo Shaoheng's gaze and saw that he was interested in the plum vase, so he hurriedly said: "It was given to me by my distant aunt. My aunt's family settled in the United States very early. A small number of relatives who have settled in the United States."

"Early?"

"Well, the generation of my distant aunt's great-grandfather went abroad. Counting it, it has been at least a hundred years."

Huo Shaoheng was relieved, it turned out that he had been taken abroad a long time ago.

At that time, it happened to be a time of domestic chaos.

After the topic was finished, the living room fell into silence again.

At this moment, Tan Guiren plucked up his courage and said to Huo Shaoheng: "This time, thank you very much. Without you, I definitely wouldn't be alive."

Huo Shaoheng tapped lightly on his knee with one hand as if nothing had happened, and said with a smile: "You're welcome, this is my job."

"But your status is so high, you don't need to come in person for this kind of thing, and I'm really sorry for putting you in danger." Tan Guiren said anxiously, stood up and bowed deeply to Huo Shaoheng, " Fortunately, you are fine, if you have three good things and two bad things, I will live in guilt for the rest of my life."

Huo Shaoheng: "..."

"Miss Tan is serious." Huo Shaoheng moved on the sofa calmly, "Actually, I just happened to be on the way, and I happened to have a mission here, so I came here."

"Really?" Tan Guiren widened his eyes and slowly sat down opposite him, "But my mother said that they specially asked you to come here in person."

Huo Shaoheng: "..."

He didn't speak for a while, thought for a while, and then said: "It's unexpected that the **** hall can think of me. In fact, the special police in our country are very good, no matter who they send, they can complete the task."

Tan Guiren shook his head, "It's different, you are different from them. That night, when I asked you to save those two children, only you and I went, and none of them went."

Huo Shaoheng choked for a moment, and finally said unceremoniously: "I'm just thinking about Miss Tan's safety. To be honest, those two children are not within my protection."

"But you still went." Tan Guiren smiled sweetly, "And later, you saved that little girl on Fifth Avenue, so I knew I was right about you."

The corners of Huo Shaoheng's lips twitched twice, his eyes shifted to the heavy rain outside the window, and he said, "...it's just a coincidence."

After saying this sentence, Huo Shaoheng suddenly thought, if Gu Nianzhi heard this sentence, he would definitely shake his head in disbelief, which means that he never does anything he is not sure about. If so, how could he be impulsive?

His mind was distracted for a moment, he looked at the fireplace in front of him, and only heard Tan Guiren talking, but he didn't pay attention to what she was saying.

"How could it be a coincidence? I'm not a fool. I can not only see with my own eyes, but also with my own heart." Tan Guiren smiled like a flower, and made a heart shape with his slender fingers on his chest, saying: " My mother's good friend recommended you to her, how can there be anything wrong?"

"Oh? It was recommended by your mother's friend? This is too unexpected. There are not many people who know me in China." Huo Shaoheng heard that Tan Guiren finally got around to the topic he wanted to hear, recovered, and immediately asked calmly stand up.

"Really? It seems to be!" Tan Guiren giggled, "You didn't leave your contact information this time. I was worried that the gentleman's letter was urgent, so I called back to China and asked my parents to help you. They couldn’t find the contact method, but they couldn’t find it either. My mother also went to her good friend, and it turned out that he didn’t know your contact method, so he asked me what the matter was.”

"Then you said it?" Huo Shaoheng was a little nervous, and his heart beat a little faster, because if Tan Guiren said it, he would probably be able to find out who the traitor is.

Who is betraying him.

He went full circle, even at the expense of exposing his identity in front of Tan Guiren, a brainless girl, just to force the people behind the scenes out and make them jump around.

Huo Shaoheng originally concluded that people like Tan Guiren don't understand what it means to keep secrets, so he would definitely tell the whole story to her family, so that they can follow the clues.

As a result, Tan Guiren shook his head triumphantly, "Of course not! I know you are doing important work. I think this letter must be very important. I will never tell others what is going on! Even my mother asked I didn't say anything!"

She looked at Huo Shaoheng with twinkling eyes, her face was full of "seeking praise".

Huo Shaoheng closed his eyes and endured a little bit so as not to show a wry smile and mocking expression.

Although it is uncomfortable to talk to people whose IQ and EQ are not online, it is better than facing a vicious enemy.

Besides, he has experienced professional training, is used to facing all kinds of people, and has more patience than others.

Huo Shaoheng nodded, "Thank you, Miss Tan."

The two talked for a while, when a strong wind hit outside the house, the lights in the house suddenly went out.

Tan Guiren let out a small scream.

The maid, Sister Fen, ran out of the kitchen and shouted, "The power is out! The power is out!"

"It should be the wind outside that hung up the line." Huo Shaoheng stood up. In the darkness, his deep and magnetic voice had an indescribable charm.

Tan Guiren's heart suddenly calmed down.

"Sister Fen, don't worry. I remember there is a diesel generator at home. Let's go to the basement to have a look." Tan Guiren stood up from the sofa and took two steps forward.

The room was too dark, she forgot that there was a small round stool next to the sofa, she accidentally tripped over it, and rolled to the ground with a thud.

Huo Shaoheng's eyes had already adapted to the darkness, and he also saw Tan Guiren tripped by the round stool. He stood aside with his hands tied, and did not reach out to help Tan Guiren up.

When Tan Guiren is held hostage by gangsters, he will definitely save her, because this is his duty.

But when she fell at home, he had no obligation to help her up.

It wasn't a fatal injury, Huo Shaoheng's expression was very calm.

Tan Guiren lay on the ground for a while, then sat down on the ground and rubbed his feet with a soft cry.

She rubbed her calf, her ankle felt a little uncomfortable, she wondered if it was sprained.

When Sister Fen heard the sound, she hurriedly took out the flashlight and turned it on.

"Miss? Miss?"

Huo Shaoheng pointed to the sofa, "Miss Tan tripped just now, she's fine now."

Sister Fen rushed over yelling, flashing the flashlight in her hand, "Miss? Miss? Are you okay?!"

Huo Shaoheng folded his arms and said to Sister Fen, "Where is the generator? I'll go and see."

"In the basement, go out here, there are stairs over there, leading directly to the basement." Sister Fen shook the direction of the stairs with a flashlight.

Huo Shaoheng bent down, took the flashlight from Sister Fen, turned around and walked over there.

Sister Fen was stunned for a moment, and Tan Guiren blushed even more with embarrassment.

When Huo Shaoheng bent over just now, she thought he was coming to hug her...

Sister Fen helped Tan Guiren up, and said with some dissatisfaction: "This gentleman is not a gentleman at all. Miss, you fell to the ground, and he didn't even give you a hand."

Tan Guiren forced a smile and said, "I don't blame him either, he can't see the darkness."

"That's true." Sister Fen just said casually, she didn't care if she saw Tan Guiren, let alone an outsider.

Huo Shaoheng came to the basement with a flashlight, and found a diesel generator in a small room. The main circuit control room of the entire villa is also here, as well as the boiler for heating hot water and the central control system for the air conditioner.

Here, is the total control system of bugs and pinhole cameras installed by the CIA.

Of course, this is what James revealed to him.

Because of the sudden power outage, the backup power supply of the main control system here was activated, and only a little red light was seen shining in the small room in the dark.

Huo Shaoheng looked at it blankly, took out an insulating knife, and gently cut off the wire of the backup power supply.

The red light suddenly disappeared.

This meant that all bugs and pinhole cameras in the house had stopped functioning.

Then Huo Shaoheng bent down and started the diesel generator.

Soon, the lights in the room came on, and the situation here became clearer.

He looked around again before coming up from the basement.

Back in the living room, Tan Guiren was still sitting on the sofa rubbing his ankles.

Only one small light was turned on, and the warm yellow light made the empty living room feel warmer, and the storm outside the window seemed not to be bad.

Huo Shaoheng put the flashlight on the coffee table and said, "When will the rain stop outside?"

Tan Guiren hurriedly turned on the TV to watch the weather forecast.

On the TV, a weather forecaster in a raincoat said nervously: "There is a tendency to escalate. Tonight's torrential rain will last all night. Please pay attention to safety and don't go out."

Huo Shaoheng: "..."

Tan Guiren took a sneak peek at Huo Shaoheng's calm face, and was secretly happy in his heart.

But on the surface, he was still very calm, and said softly: "Mr. Gu, why don't you just stay here today. My house has many rooms, there are three guest rooms upstairs, and one downstairs."

Huo Shaoheng thought for a while, then turned his head to look at the heavy rain outside the window, as if he had made up his mind, and said, "If the rain doesn't stop at ten o'clock in the evening, then I will bother you."

"It's okay, it's okay." Tan Guiren was very enthusiastic, and asked Huo Shaoheng again: "It's getting late, let's have dinner together. The Yangzhou cuisine cooked by Sister Fen is delicious."

The Tan family is from the south. Tan Guiren grew up eating Yangzhou cuisine cooked by the chef at home, so that when she went abroad, she even brought a maid who could cook Yangzhou cuisine to go abroad with her.

Huo Shaoheng didn't like the bland taste of Yangzhou cuisine, but he didn't refuse. He nodded politely and said, "Thank you."

For Huo Shaoheng, when he appeared as a major general in charge of the special operations department, he didn't eat outside food.

But when he was on a mission and his surroundings changed, it definitely couldn't be like this.

Eat what you should eat and drink what you should drink.

Today's dinner was planned by him long ago.
