Chapter 1220 You Are Not Telling the Truth Again
“The situation is not optimistic?” General Ji frowned. “From your perspective, was it intentional or an accident?”Huo Shaoheng replied cautiously, “It’s hard to tell since this happened so many years ago. The whole world has searched for that plane for so many years, Gu Yanran is the only one who claimed that she had seen the wreckage. Yet the father she ‘rescued’ was not Gu Xiangwen. So, we still need more clues to prove and recover the truth about the original accident.”
“That’s reasonable.” General Ji slowly nodded. After a while, his expression relaxed and he smiled to say, “But Nianzhi’ has made an even greater contribution this time. She even donated the Gu’s family letter to the country. Are you planning to give her some credit?”
Huo Shaoheng shook his head, “No, this time the credit is still given to Bai Shuang. She indeed deserves the greatest credit.”
“Either of them can request for credit.” General Ji thought about it for a while, “I’ll request credit for Nianzhi. She is not a member of your Special Operations Forces, but she has helped you a lot. It is not too much to request for a one time credit.”
Huo Shaoheng continued to reply modestly, “If General Ji must request for credit, then second-cla.s.s credit will do. First-cla.s.s credit is too flashy, and we should keep it secret for now. She shouldn’t get too much attention before our marriage is announced.”
“Okay, I understand that, I will have someone record it in her personnel profile.” General Ji laughed and said, “When you take her to Moscow this time, are you really going to end it?”
“…Of course, everything needs a beginning and an end.” Huo Shaoheng hooked curled his lips and gave a vague reply.
General Ji understood him well, so he rubbed his head and laughed, “Alright, take her out for some relaxation. There are many places in Moscow that have beautiful scenery. It will be May 1st, so there will be a grand ceremony at the Red Square in Moscow. This is the first time in decades!”
Huo Shaoheng, “…”
…
When they arrived at the airport parking lot, Huo Shaoheng got out of the car and saw that Yin s.h.i.+xiong and Gu Nianzhi were already waiting for them in front of the elevator in the parking lot.
At this time of day, there were not many people at the airport. However the elevator was still in heavy use as it took pa.s.sengers to their various destinations.
Huo Shaoheng walked over to Gu Nianzhi, then looked at her and Yin s.h.i.+xiong, “…Have you finished with your kind reminders?”
Yin s.h.i.+xiong, “…”
He sensed an unidentifiable type of jealousy hurtling towards him.
But Huo Shao obviously knew what he wanted to ask?!
He trembled on his feet and still managed to reply with a smile, “I was just a bit concerned about Little Ze’s situation. Huo Shao, I think Little Ze needs to go see a psychologist.”
“Well, let him talk to Chen Lie.” Huo Shaoheng walked into the elevator without looking back. “Give him a two week vacation.”
“Thank you, Chief!” Yin s.h.i.+xiong happily saluted.
Before the elevator door closed, Huo Shaoheng continued to say, “I will give you a task. When we come back, we want to see Little Ze who cheered up again.”
Yin s.h.i.+xiong, “!!!”
d.a.m.n it!
He thanked him too early!
…
Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng boarded the plane early from the VIP lounge.
Their tickets were first-cla.s.s seats, so of course they enjoyed the best treatment and service.
Huo Shaoheng used a genuine “fake pa.s.sport”, and the photo on the pa.s.sport was exactly the same as his current disguised appearance.
Gu Nianzhi used her own pa.s.sport.
The two entered first cla.s.s cabin and sat down in their respective seats.
Although Huo Shaoheng had just booked a ticket for Gu Nianzhi, he was easily able to pick a seat next to him because it was not the peak travel season. There were many empty seats in the first cla.s.s.
Aeroflot’s first-cla.s.s cabin was similar to the first-cla.s.s cabins of other airlines. They are both s.p.a.cious and luxurious, and especially provided pa.s.sengers with large s.p.a.ce, s.p.a.ciousness and comfort. The seat can be put down as a single bed for long-distance flights.
Compared with the stiffness and discomfort in economy cla.s.s where a person’s legs can only be curled up, first cla.s.s was really “other people’s airplane.”
But Gu Nianzhi didn’t give a big reaction. Although this first-cla.s.s cabin was good, it was still much worse than He Zhichu’s private plane, and not even in the same cla.s.s.
She calmly walked to her seat and waited for the plane to take off.
Aeroflot flight attendants were all older, but there were also a few beautiful female flight attendants and handsome male flight attendants.
Perhaps because Gu Nianzhi was a young woman, the one who came to serve her was a relatively young male flight attendant.
“Miss, would you like a drink? We have freshly squeezed wild berry juice that is rich in vitamin C and beautifies skin. It is especially suitable for drinking when traveling.”
The blond male flight attendant spoke English with a Russian accent and was very courteous.
Huo Shaoheng remained calm and glanced up at him.
Gu Nianzhi smiled and nodded, “Okay, thank you.”
At Gu Nianzhi’s encouragement, the male flight attendant brought her a gla.s.s of freshly squeezed wild berry juice.
Gu Nianzhi took a sip and found it was delicious. The flavor was tart and sweet, but there was no artificial flavoring. There was a little bit of bitterness within the sweetness, but it was surprisingly pleasant to drink. On the contrary, it neutralized the sourness and sweetness, leaving a delicious and endless aftertaste that lingered without making her feel thirsty.
Just like a fine tea, she didn’t feel parched after drinking it.
When Gu Nianzhi drank other beverages such as cola, she needed to drink a lot of water afterwards.
The male flight attendant was even more happy to see that Gu Nianzhi liked it.
After the plane took off and stabilized, he came to Gu Nianzhi and introduced several other flavors of freshly squeezed wild berry juice.
On Huo Shaoheng’s side, a young and beautiful female flight attendant came over to talk to him from time to time. She asked him what he needed, then offered him a gla.s.s of beer and a blanket. She was very attentive and thoughtful.
When Gu Nianzhi saw it, she was slightly jealous. She turned her head to look over at the scenery outside the window.
Huo Shaoheng noticed her little tantrum and reached out and shook her hand.
When the male flight attendant came back next time, Huo Shaoheng replied calmly in Russian, “Thank you for taking care of my fiancee.”
The male flight attendant, “…”
He didn’t come over as much after that.
Gu Nianzhi tried to flatten the smile appearing on her face and said calmly, “…You’re not telling the truth again.”
She actually meant that Huo Shaoheng was lying.
“Well, do you want me to tell the truth? I can declare right away… I…”
Before Huo Shaoheng’s voice could even form a word, Gu Nianzhi gagged his mouth with a small berry.
“Eat your fruit and stop talking nonsense.” Gu Nianzhi glanced at him, remembering what Yin s.h.i.+xiong had just said to her in the car. She whispered, “Brother Xiong said that he would postpone his wedding because he wanted to wait for Brother Ze to recover before announcing it.”
Huo Shaoheng, “…”
“Big Xiong’s marriage report hasn’t even been approved yet, he is overthinking too much.” Huo Shaoheng shook his head disapprovingly.
Gu Nianzhi curled her lips, “At least he is planning, there will be a grand wedding after the grand proposal ceremony. Brother Xiong will not let Qiqi down.”
Huo Shaoheng, “…”
They stopped talking, and looked at their own tablets to play games or research information.
A few hours pa.s.sed without any incident. The flight was very stable, unlike the typical flights piloted by a fighting nation.
Gu Nianzhi woke up after a night of sleep, and was about to tease Huo Shaoheng when suddenly felt the plane shake rapidly.
“What is happening?!”
Huo Shaoheng squeezed her hand, “It’s okay, it should just be some turbulence.”
Before long, the voice of the flight attendant broadcasted in the plane to comfort and ask everyone not to panic. It was just some turbulence.
Gu Nianzhi sighed and said with a smile, “This an airplane that can take off and land normally in windy and hazy weather, after all. It should be fine.”
Huo Shaoheng curled his lips and was about to speak. A female flight attendant stood nervously in front of the first cla.s.s cabin and said to the pa.s.sengers in the cabin, “Our captain has suddenly become very ill. Are there any pa.s.sengers who can fly the plane?”
Gu Nianzhi, “…”
Sheesh, she should be renamed Gu·Cursed Tongue·Nianzhi!
She had just praised the pilots from fighting nations for their extraordinary piloting skills the words came back to slap her in the face.
There were only four or five pa.s.sengers in the first cla.s.s, and everyone looked at each other.
Huo Shaoheng said slowly, “…You have no co-pilot or observers on your plane?”
In addition to the captain and co-pilot, there is also an observer on board such a large international flight. The observer was a subst.i.tute for the co-pilot.
However, observers generally do not have the qualifications to fly planes, so they only observed.
But in special circ.u.mstances such as this situation, observers could also be used as co-pilots.
The female flight attendant replied nervously, “The observer pa.s.sed out in shock.”
Gu Nianzhi, “…”
Why would such a timid person learn to fly a plane?!
Gu Nianzhi rolled her eyes internally and wanted to push up the window cover to see the situation outside.
She was sleeping just now, so she put down the window cover.
Gu Nianzhi was stunned when she pulled up the window cover.
It was pitch black outside, yet it didn’t look black. It was like a thick fog tumbling with teeth and claws as it surrounded the airplane.
It was a bit terrifying to see.
What kind of turbulence was this?
Huo Shaoheng looked down for a moment, then smiled and said, “I know how to fly a private jet. I haven’t flown this kind of large airplane before, but I can help.”
He stood up, but picked up Gu Nianzhi’s arm as well, “She is my a.s.sistant, so I want to take her to the c.o.c.kpit.”
