Hello, Mr. Major General

Chapter 1689: Tighten Your Skin

Gu Nianzhi lowered her eyes and stood in front of He Zhichu's bed, gently tucking him in.

After leaving He Zhichu's suite, Gu Nianzhi returned to her room and saw Huo Shaoheng still sitting on the sofa in the living room, casually flipping a magazine.

"Mr. Peter, do you really not need to go back to the Embassy?" Gu Nianzhi frowned worriedly at Huo Shaoheng.

Huo Shaoheng had been with her for the past two days and he had barely slept.

Gu Nianzhi had been able to see the warm lights in the living room seeping through the cracks of the bedroom door whenever she awoke in the past two nights.

It felt good, but alas, they were at the He family's house, not somewhere else.

Gu Nianzhi was very afraid of He Chengjian.

This man did not play by the rules. It was hard to know what he would do next.

He was very reasonable now, but who knew when he would go crazy again?

He Chengjian always said that Gu Xiangwen was crazy, but Gu Nianzhi felt that He Chengjian was just as eccentric.

Especially since he had power and was never afraid to use force. He was more lethal than Lu Jin.

It could be said that he was decisive when it came to killing, and he had no lack of it.

Gu Nianzhi was very sure she wouldn't even have the chance to block the bullet by the time she sensed something amiss over the trap to take Huo Shaoheng's life again.

Huo Shaoheng looked up at her and smiled lightly. "Are you trying to get rid of me already, Miss Gu? Even He Chengjian didn't chase me away."

It was a cool and dry winter afternoon in the capital.

The afternoon sun shone through the curtains, illuminating his face.

He smiled quietly in the afternoon sun. He was absolutely stunning.

Gu Nianzhi almost couldn't control herself. She hurriedly averted her gaze and said, "Suit yourself then. I need to take a nap. I'll be able to operate on young Master He in six hours."

She ran back to her bedroom like a little rabbit and slammed the door.

She leaned against the door, her mouth open as she exhaled and inhaled slowly. She was afraid that Huo Shaoheng would hear her breathing as she was not about to let him notice her at all..

Under He Chengjian's watch, it was better for the two to keep their distance.

Gu Nianzhi laid back on the bed and counted sheep before finally falling asleep.

Six hours later, Huo Shaoheng knocked the door to wake her up. "Lawyer Gu? Wen Shouyi is awake. You can go and operate on young Master He."

Gu Nianzhi could survive as long as He Zhichu was alive.

Gu Nianzhi opened her eyes and saw that the room was pitch black. There was only a glimmer of light under the door.

It was the light from the living room.

Gu Nianzhi lifted the blanket and got up. She raised her voice. "I'm up. I have to eat dinner. Has Mr. Peter had dinner?"

Huo Shaoheng turned to look at the dinner that had been delivered downstairs. "Dinner is here. There's your favorite food, three-flavored fried rice."

Gu Nianzhi's heart skipped a beat. She walked over to open the bedroom door and stuck her head out. "Who made it?"

"The He family's cook."Huo Shaoheng put his hands in his pockets and commented casually, "I told them that you wanted to eat Fried Rice and asked them if they knew how to make three-flavored fried rice."

Gu Nianzhi's gaze fell on a small log table in the living room that was used as a temporary dining table.

There were two dinner plates.

The sweet white porcelain plate was piled with fried rice with green beans, red shrimp, and golden scrambled eggs.

Gu Nianzhi immediately felt hungry. She casually tied her hair up and walked out of the bedroom. "Eat first, then wash up ."

Huo Shaoheng did not stop her. He sat down on the other side of the table and said, "I also ordered a bowl of Chicken Minced Sea Cucumber Soup for you. It would nourish the yin and the Qi. It was all stewed and easy to digest."

Gu Nianzhi looked at the rice and soup. Her mood was as radiant as a peach blossom. She smiled and nodded. "Thank you, Mr. Peter!"

She picked up the spoon and scooped a spoonful of rice. She couldn't wait to taste it.

As soon as she tasted it, she knew instantly that it wasn't the kind of three-flavored fried rice that she had previously eaten.

Huo Shaoheng, Song Jinning, and Lu Yuan knew the recipe to the special San Xian Fried Rice..

Even though she could not describe it, her taste buds could distinct the difference, so she knew it was not the usual three-flavored fried rice.

She was slightly disappointed, but still, she ate up and finished the soup. Then she politely said, "I'm going to wash up. Thank you for the meal, Mr. Peter."

She proceeded to wash up. At the same time, she sent Lu Jin a message informing him that He Zhichu would be ready to be operated in 15 minutes.

.

After washing up, Huo Shaoheng sent her to the Operating Room.

He Zhichu was sent there as well.

Gu Nianzhi put on her scrubs again and walked in.

This time, He Chengjian was there too and waited outside the Operating Room with Huo Shaoheng.

The red light in the operating room lit up, indicating "Surgery In Progress".

In the Operating Room, Gu Nianzhi sat in front of the computer and quietly opened the back door again to let Lu Jin in.

Lu Jin had already operated on Wen Shouyi once, and this was the second time he had operated on He Zhichu. His movements were visibly skilful with the familiarity.

After the Gamma Knife Surgery, he did a physical examination on He Zhichu and recorded his vital signs.

"Not bad, no problem was detected. I told you. How could a disease cured using Gene Therapy relapse ?" He commented with triumph!

Muttering to himself, Lu Jin worked fervently in front of his computer.

Lu Yuan was also in his studio and kept reminding him, "Focus on the surgery. If you have any complaints, keep it within yourself till after the surgery."

"I'm just muttering. What made you think I was complaining?" Lu Jin glared at him unhappily. "Be quiet!"

"I'm doing this for your daughter's sake. If you make a mistake here, your daughter won't be let off."

Lu Yuan casually threw out his trump card.

Lu Jin was speechless.

Lu Yuan discovered that as long as it was related to Gu Nianzhi, Lu Jin had no choice but to obey him unconditionally.

As a result, he was becoming more and more skilled at playing the "Gu Nianzhi card.".

Lu Jin pursed his lips and stopped mumbling. He focused all his attention on the surgery.

After checking again to make sure that there were no mistakes, he cut off the connection and exited the room.

Gu Nianzhi was alerted as soon as he exited the room.

She knew the surgery was over, so she quickly did a few finishing touches before turning off the Gamma Ray. She said to the monitor, "The surgery is over."

The red light outside the operating room dimmed out.

He Chengjian looked at his watch."… It was two hours earlier than the last time."

Huo Shaoheng said calmly, "The second time will always be better than the first and practice makes perfect, so the time was shortened. "

Even so, He Chengjian still felt that Gu Nianzhi's performance was simply unbelievable.

However, he did not say anything. As long as Gu Nianzhi could save He Zhichu there would be no problem.

Gu Nianzhi walked out of the Operating Room. She looked much better than when she had operated on Wen Shouyi six hours ago.

She smiled as she removed the mask on her face and said, "The operation went well. Young Master He will wake up after staying in the Intensive Ward for three hours."

"Really? "He Chengjian was overjoyed. "Nianzhi, thank you!"

He reached out and shook Gu Nianzhi's hand before pushing the door of the Operating Room door and walked in.

Gu Nianzhi watched with a smile as they escorted He Zhichu out of the Operating Room and into the Intensive Ward.

He Zhichu had just been sent away when Qin Yaoguang arrived.

She was wearing a surgical gown and was in a hurry to put on a mask.

Gu Nianzhi smiled and nodded at her. "Director Qin, please do not trouble yourself. I have completed the surgery on young Master He. You could return to the Detention Centre"

Qin Yaoguang's pupils constricted. Her hand that was holding the mask froze momentarily before it slowly relaxed.

"What did you say? ! You have actually operated on young Master He? Was General aware!"

Qin Yaoguang did not believe that He Chengjian would agree to let Gu Nianzhi, who had never ever gone to Medical School, operate on his precious son!

She subconsciously thought that Gu Nianzhi had acted on her own initiative, and that He Chengjian had been kept in the dark.

Gu Nianzhi scoffed and shook her head, "Director Qin, why do you think I could operate on young Master He if General He did not give his consent? How well do you know General He? You've really loved him for so many years, and you don't even know who he was? Or have you been blinded by love?"

That was true.

Qin Yaoguang's eyes flickered, and she sneered. "Fine, I'll wait here and see how General He will deal with you. You must be tired of living if you dare hurt his son!."

"The same goes to you and your Qin Family."Gu Nianzhi covered her mouth and yawned. She said lazily, "And you're welcome."

She didn't argue with Qin Yaoguang and went straight to the He Residence's Suite with Huo Shaoheng.

She looked at the time and saw that it was already midnight.

It was New Year's Eve today.

The Sun would be up in three hours, by which He Zhichu would have awoken.

.

Gu Nianzhi would be able to leave the He Family's home and returned to her own home for the New Year.

She secretly sent Lu Jin a text message: " I'll be home in three hours. I'd like to try Mr. Lu's cooking."

Lu Jin was overjoyed when he saw the text message. He quickly pushed Lu Yuan and said, "Boss Lu, go buy some ingredients! Nianzhi will be back in three hours!"

Lu Yuan almost rolled his eyes. "Big shareholder Lu, it's early in the morning. Where would I go to buy groceries?"

As he spoke, he walked into the kitchen and opened the fridge. "It's New Year's Eve today. I've already prepared everything. When Nianzhi comes back, I'll make her a big meal."

Lu Jin was elated when he saw Lu Yuan had everything prepared for the New Year. He smiled and gave him thumbs up. "Boss Lu is indeed a boss! You're so thoughtful!"

Huo Shaoheng was certain that Gu Nianzhi would be back today as so would him.

Lu Yuan heaved a sigh of relief. He looked at the time and couldn't fall asleep.

He decided to start preparing dinner for the New Year's Eve in the kitchen.

This New Year would be the most meaningful for him ever!

..Three hours later, the first rays of dawn appeared.

The golden rays of the morning sun fell from the evergreen holly trees in front of the hospital building. They bounced happily and shone through the glass windows of the building.

It was still dark in the Intensive Care Ward.

He Zhichu woke up from a deep sleep. He did not know where he was, but he felt as light as a feather.
