Chapter 968: The Person I Miss the Most
"What's the matter? You want me to knock out teeth and swallow blood, wish you a happy marriage for a hundred years and have a baby soon?!——Let me tell you, it can't be done!" Bai Shuang tilted his head, clamped the phone between his ears and shoulders, While tidying up the closet, he continued to quarrel with Zhao Liangze: "Since you don't like me, you like my cousin, it doesn't matter, you can like anyone, you have your freedom, I have no problem, anyway, we were just ordinary friends before. But please don't call me again! Don't send text messages, and don't contact me in any way!"
Zhao Liangze was startled, "Why? I thought we were still friends."
"No, from the moment you choose Bai Yueran, we are no longer friends, not even ordinary friends." Bai Shuang's refusal was resounding and decisive.
Zhao Liangze did not expect Bai Shuang to be so determined.
In the past, her eyes followed him all the time, and when she saw him, her eyes would light up, and her whole body would become brilliant.
When he saw her like this, he would feel better.
This is also the reason why he is still willing to be friends with her even though he feels that he is not in love with Bai Shuang?
But when he thought that her smile was no longer bright and her eyes were no longer shining because of his actions, Zhao Liangze felt unspeakable heartache and sadness.
Mingming finally caught up with the person he loves, he should be happy or even ecstatic.
But Zhao Liangze knew that ever since he kissed Bai Yueran that day and was bumped into by Bai Shuang, his mind was full of Bai Shuang's crying eyes...
Fortunately, Huo Shaoheng dispatched him to this small and sparsely populated island.
After half a month of hard work, he had no time to think about personal issues.
Almost 20 hours of high-intensity work every day has polished the fair and handsome Zhao Liangze into a bronze-skinned and fit man.
Still handsome, but not as bookish as before.
Now he is truly like a soldier.
He hurried, and finally set up the first signal transmission tower and mobile phone base station on the first day of the Lunar New Year, and successfully established a connection with the Nandou satellite navigation and communication system.
However, the power generation device on the island has not yet been established.
They used makeshift diesel generators.
Except for the signal station and mobile phone base station for the station, and the computer for work, there is almost no power left.
This time it was the day before the Spring Festival, and the navy sent them a large amount of supplies, so that they could have the opportunity to use their mobile phones to contact their families in China with the power provided by the diesel generators.
Because the time allocated to each person is limited, everyone only calls the people they care about most.
Married people call their wives and children.
Those who are not married call their parents and lovers.
As for Zhao Liangze, his first reaction was to call Bai Shuang.
Unexpectedly, Bai Shuang not only refused to answer his call, but blocked his number instead.
If he hadn't been disciplined, Zhao Liangze could have hacked Bai Shuang's phone in minutes and pulled his phone number out of the blacklist.
It's a pity he didn't dare to do that.
Later, he borrowed someone else's mobile phone to make a call, and Bai Shuang accidentally got through, so he was able to talk.
But this is not talking, it is obviously a quarrel!
Zhao Liangze pinched the stopwatch and reasoned with Bai Shuang: "Bai Shuang, I've already apologized, do you want to be so desperate?"
Bai Shuang only felt that Zhao Liangze was entangled, she had already humiliated enough, so he wanted to make her continue to embarrass herself?
"Zhao Liangze, okay, I accept your apology, okay? Now we're going from bridge to bridge, road to road, road to the sky, each side, and don't have any more contact in this life. I beg you, let me go.—— Trust me, you have nothing to lose in life without me as a friend."
Bai Shuang was also very irritable, so he randomly pulled out a few clothes from the closet and threw them into the suitcase, and locked it with a snap.
Zhao Liangze heard something wrong with Bai Shuang's voice over there, and couldn't help but ask, "Bai Shuang, what are you doing?"
"Pack your bags, I'm leaving the country tomorrow, don't call again,
I will not use this number again. "Bai Shuang pressed the phone to expand, and threw it on the bedside table beside him.
"Going abroad? Where are you going?" Zhao Liangze didn't know why he was so nervous, "My number will not change. If you encounter difficulties outside, you can call me."
"Call you? I don't know where you are. I'll call you when I'm full? If it's an emergency, wouldn't it delay me?" Bai Shuang refused Zhao Liangze without hesitation.
Zhao Liangze hesitated for a while, remembering Huo Shaoheng's instructions, he still mustered up the courage to say to Bai Shuang: "Bai Shuang, do you know that when I saw you leaving crying that day, I felt very sad, drank a lot of wine, and then accidentally, I said a few words to make Huo Shao unhappy, so I was sent to this place where no birds can lay eggs. I don't have electricity or water here, and everything has to wait for supplies. I really don't have much time to talk to you quarrel."
Bai Shuang was stunned for a moment, looked in the direction of the phone, and asked suspiciously: "What did you say? You were sent to a deserted place because you talked back to Young Master Huo? - Isn't that right? Young Master Huo is not such a person, is he? "
Hearing that Bai Shuang trusted Huo Shaoheng almost unconditionally, Zhao Liangze couldn't tell what it was like, but felt a little sour in his heart, and muttered: "...that's the truth, you can ask Daxiong if you don't believe it. But forget it, I didn't say this for you Sympathize with me, I just want to explain that I really didn't mean to make you sad, I'm sorry."
Although Bai Shuang didn't know exactly what Zhao Liangze was doing, she knew the nature of the Special Operations Department.
Now that Zhao Liangze has annoyed Huo Shaoheng, the place where he will be assigned can be imagined, any backcountry is possible.
Bai Shuang bit his lip, stood up, picked up his phone, and said to Zhao Liangze: "Okay, I got it, you don't have to feel guilty. Work hard, don't waste your precious time with me, call your parents, Calling my cousin is better than calling me."
Zhao Liangze was taken aback, thinking to himself, he should have called them first, why did he call Bai Shuang out of nowhere?
Not only fought, but also persevered...
Zhao Liangze was also frightened by his own thoughts, his breathing was a little short, and he couldn't speak for a while.
Bai Shuang waited for a while, and seeing that Zhao Liangze had stopped talking, he nodded, "Alright then, I'll hang up."
Zhao Liangze hurriedly said, "Happy Spring Festival."
Bai Shuang hesitated for a moment, "You too."
Zhao Liangze said again: "If you are abroad alone, you should be more careful. There are many perverted foreigners."
Bai Shuang twitched the corner of her mouth, "I'm not a little girl who doesn't leave the door, but thank you for reminding me."
After a pause, Bai Shuang hastily said: "...you also take care, be safe." After speaking, he quickly picked up the phone.
She clutched her chest and found that her heart was beating violently.
No, it can't go on like this.
Bai Shuang pulled out the phone card, found a pair of high heels, and smashed the phone card to pieces with the pointed soles.
Zhao Liangze stared blankly at his phone, but with such a simple and perfunctory polite word, his mood suddenly improved.
It was like the sky that had been hazy for many days, and suddenly the dark clouds cleared, the sun shone brightly, and the earth returned to the spring. He felt full of energy, and even the silver-gray plastic bucket used to catch the rain looked so pleasing to the eye.
...
It was noon at Admiral Ji's house on the first day of the new year, and it was time for lunch.
Admiral Ji will entertain everyone for a meal as usual.
In the spacious dining room, there are two banquets with long tables.
The bosses sit at one table with their wives or children, and their followers sit at another table.
It's all food sharing.
Gu Nianzhi originally wanted to sit at another table with his followers.
But Huo Shaoheng came over and pulled her over, "Nianzhi, Admiral Ji wants to talk to you."
Gu Nianzhi had no choice but to follow him and sit beside him.
On the other side of Gu Nianzhi is Admiral Ji.
On the other side of Admiral Ji is his wife.
On the other side of Huo Shaoheng was Speaker Long.
Chairman Long didn't bring his wife or children to Admiral Ji's house to pay New Year's greetings. He came alone, with only Special Assistant Yang as his entourage.
Therefore, on the dining tables on both sides, there are clear barriers, with high and low levels.
For Gu Nianzhi to sit at the master's table and eat at the same table with the bosses, the other attendants have no objection.
After all, everyone is their own master, and they don't care about the little seating relationship when eating.
Besides, Admiral Ji's house was a family banquet, not a state banquet. Admiral Ji said he wanted to talk to Gu Nianzhi, so it was appropriate to give her preferential treatment and call her over for dinner.
Don't accept it and hold back.
Only Special Assistant Yang felt uncomfortable.
Although he was sitting in the attendant seat, his eyes never moved away from the master seat.
Admiral Ji smiled and exchanged greetings with Gu Nianzhi before turning to the topic.
"Nianzhi, I heard that you graduated early?"
"Yes." Gu Nianzhi tilted his head with a smile, "For those who just graduated, the graduation ceremony will not be held until July."
"Oh, have you considered where to work after graduation?" Admiral Ji looked at Gu Nianzhi very enthusiastically, and pointed to the four dishes on her dinner plate, "Try my chef's specialty dishes, the top left corner This one is Xiaotiansu, which is actually fried shredded venison and chicken. The one on the upper right corner is Guangming Shrimp, which is actually grilled shrimp. The lower left corner is fresh bean sprouts, and the lower right corner is dessert, which I specially made Cheese poured cherries made by the chef is said to be the name of an ancient dish, I hope you like it."
Gu Nianzhi quickly glanced at everyone.
There is a four-compartment lunch box in front of everyone, with a small round lunch box in the middle containing dipping sauces.
The four dishes in front of each person are different, and they are probably made according to everyone's preferences. It is obvious that everyone is very happy and satisfied after eating.
Of course, it is also possible that they are pretending, anyway, the acting skills of the bosses have long been superb, Gu Nianzhi feels that he is an ordinary person, he does not have as many minds as these bosses, and his acting skills are not as good as them.
She looked away, smiled and nodded to Admiral Ji, "Thank you, Admiral Ji, I like these dishes very much."
She took a mouthful of bright shrimp, and after swallowing it, she said to Admiral Ji: "I haven't considered where to work for the time being. I'll talk about it after the Chinese New Year."
She is currently a regular employee of the largest law firm in the United States, but she does not plan to work in the United States, so she probably has to quit this job.
Or if the largest law firm in the United States came to China Empire to open a branch, she would also consider staying there.
"Haven't decided yet? That's good, that's good!" Admiral Ji happily patted the dining table, "Come on, my office just needs a legal advisor. If you want, I'll ask Secretary Cao..."
"Old Ji, what are you talking about?! You can't poach my corner anymore!" Chairman Long was listening patiently, and planned to wait for Admiral Ji to finish speaking before he spoke again.
Unexpectedly, before he could speak, Admiral Ji had already mentioned it.
Chairman Long pushed Huo Shaoheng anxiously, "Shaoheng, make room for me, I have something to say to Nianzhi."
Two of the three people with the highest status in the empire favored Gu Nianzhi, so Huo Shaoheng was of course happy in his heart.
But he didn't show it at all, stood up very politely, and gave up his seat, "Chairman Long, please."
Speaker Long unceremoniously sat in the position where Huo Shaoheng had just been, and together with Admiral Ji surrounded Gu Nianzhi from left to right.
Huo Shaoheng is tall and stalwart, and when he stands up, his goal is very obvious.
The attendant seat immediately noticed the movement here.
An entourage of a military boss quietly pushed Special Assistant Yang, and said with a smile: "Look, your Chairman Long really likes that Miss Gu."
Special Assistant Yang narrowed his eyes and smiled, and said, "Our speaker loves talents very much and likes to cast a wide net. Not only Ms. Gu, but also Ms. Cai, is also the key inspection object of our speaker."
"...Understood. Haha, come, drink and drink." The entourage laughed and toasted with Special Assistant Yang.
Here, Chairman Long has already spoken directly to Gu Nianzhi.
"Nianzhi, to be honest, you are a professional who studies law, and it's a waste of talent to go to the military. Where is the status of a lawyer? Look at that Director Bai, who is also a shrewd and capable person, but now he follows you every day. Dealing with paperwork, you can't show your style in court at all. You are so suitable for court defense, you should really consider our parliament."
Admiral Ji heard this, and was so angry that he wanted to roll up his sleeves and fight.
"Old dragon! You're enough! What's wrong with the legal department of our military department?! Isn't it impossible to go to court?!——I'm telling you, you like to go to court, it doesn't matter. Our military department only needs you like this Talent. Let me tell you, we don’t know how many cases we need to fight, and they are all cases in international courts. Unfortunately, there is not enough manpower, and the delay will last for several years, which makes me anxious!"
When Gu Nianzhi heard that he was going to go to the International Court of Justice, he suddenly became interested.
"Really? I don't seem to have heard these cases reported by the media."
"Why are these things being reported in the media? They are all kept secret." Admiral Ji saw that Gu Nianzhi's interest was aroused, and he smiled very pleasantly, looking like a kind grandfather.
Huo Shaoheng twitched the corners of his mouth beside him, and silently took a bite of roasted veal loin.
Chairman Long became even more anxious. He even took Gu Nianzhi's arm and said earnestly, "Nianzhi, we who study law have a long-term career plan. Litigation is important, but more importantly, every one we fight Will the lawsuit help me in my future career development!"
"That makes sense." Gu Nianzhi nodded, picked up the juice in front of her and took a sip. It was the coconut juice she liked, and Huo Shaoheng probably poured it for her.
Gu Nianzhi took a look at Huo Shaoheng, and saw that he was drinking, and it was still high-alcohol liquor.
Baijiu paired with grilled veal loin is a combination of east and west, which is also quite special.
Gu Nianzhi looked back, and heard Chairman Long's words beaming with delight.
"Read it, you also think it makes sense, don't you? So those international court cases are actually not very helpful to your career planning. You come to the secretariat of our parliament as the chief legal adviser. After three years, I guarantee that you can come out and elect members of the House of Lords! ——With your qualifications, in time, you will be my successor!"
After Chairman Long finished speaking, he smiled triumphantly at Admiral Ji, "You are the only one who has a successor? I have one too!"
Admiral Ji smiled, raised a pair of gray eyebrows, and said in a drawn-out voice, "Old Dragon, aren't you going too far? You wouldn't blush to draw such a big cake for a little girl who just graduated from school! "
"Why should I blush?! Every word I say is sincere!" Chairman Long waved his arms, his chubby face flushed, and he looked more and more childlike and healthy.
"Read it, don't listen to him. The old dragon was born in the campaign, and he is the best at talking without counting. I am different. I am a soldier. You grew up with the soldiers, and naturally you know that although we soldiers don't talk much, but one sentence is a sentence. , I never boast, and I will do what I say!"
Admiral Ji kept dismantling Speaker Long's platform, and he was so angry that he was running on Speaker Long.
"Old Ji, you just want to be right with me, right?"
"I'm not trying to be against you, but good jade and beautiful materials, everyone loves them, what's the matter? You are allowed to make cakes, but I am not allowed to solicit?"
"Why do you say that I am a picture cake and you are just recruiting?! Bah!" Chairman Long was really angry, "I can issue a military order! Just read it and go to the secretariat of our upper house, and I will escort you all the way, and I will definitely be the successor people training!"
Speaker Long's voice was so loud that everyone present heard it.
Everyone cheered and expressed their willingness to be witnesses.
These people are all well-known military bosses, and they took the initiative to be witnesses, and Chairman Long is no different from issuing a military order.
Admiral Ji suppressed the joy in his heart, and gave Huo Shaoheng a "you know I know" look.
Huo Shaoheng remained calm, without any change in his expression.
Only Special Assistant Yang in the entourage changed color, realizing that what he feared the most had finally come.
