Chapter 1980: Chapter 1980: eight characters drawn (first update)
Huo Guanchen could not help but clench his fists. He took a deep breath and said,”… Let’s go.”
In the parking lot, a few custom-made bulletproof cars quietly left the gate and drove to the road in front of the restaurant.
Zhang Baochen and Guo Huining came out of the private room and stood by the window on the other side of the second floor, watching Huo Guanchen’s fleet drive out.
The two of them did not speak for a long time.
After a long time, Guo Huining asked faintly,”… Mr. Zhang, does general Huo always go out in such a grand manner?”
Although she had been engaged to Hong Ziqi for so many years, she had not met many of the truly powerful people.
She had dealt with Huo Shaoheng twice in the past, but Huo Shaoheng had never been so cordial in front of his friends.
Guo huining found it difficult to a.s.sociate Huo Shaoheng’s image with a high-ranking official like Huo Guanchen, who was surrounded by guards and drove by several cars.
No wonder Mr. Huo Guanchen was a general. This was the proper pomp and circ.u.mstance..
Guo Huining cursed silently in her heart.
Zhang Baochen also looked enviously in the direction of Huo Guanchen’s motorcade and said in a low voice, “What is this? This is just an ordinary entourage. If it’s a business trip, then the pomp and circ.u.mstance will be even bigger.”
“Bigger?”Guo Huining was extremely surprised. “How bigger? Bigger than the Prime Minister?”
“Of course it would be bigger.”Zhang Baochen turned around disdainfully. “My second brother is the director of Military Political Department. Do you know what rank this is? With the same military rank, the director of Military Political Department is half a rank higher than other military positions!”
“AH? So it’s like that. You really know a lot!”Guo Huining had an idea, she respectfully invited Zhang Baochen back to the private room and ordered another bottle of good red wine. She poured him a gla.s.s and began to inquire about the Huo family’s situation, especially Huo Guanchen’s military position and rank.
Zhang Baochen had lived in the Huo family for so many years, so he knew the basic information, so he couldn’t stop talking.
However, Zhang Baochen didn’t know anything about the specific jobs of Huo Guanchen and Huo Shaoheng.
He only knew their positions and military ranks. He didn’t know anything else.
But that alone was enough to broaden Guo Huining’s horizons.

It was like opening the door to a new world. Guo Huining couldn’t help but secretly plan.
..
After dinner, it was already past 10 pm.
Guo Huining and Zhang Baochen came out of the “People on the lake”and were already slightly tipsy.
When the cold night wind blew outside, the gooseb.u.mps on Guo Huining’s arms came out.
The two of them had drunk alcohol and could not drive.
However, Zhang Baochen did not have a car, so Guo Huining’s car could not be driven out for the time being.
Therefore, after the two of them said goodbye at the entrance of the restaurant, they each called a private car.
Guo Huining waited for Zhang Baochen to get in the car and leave before she got into the private car that she had called.
After the car was driven out, Dou aiyan, who was sitting in the front row, turned around and said with a smile, “Huining, how’s the situation today? Have they agreed to help?”
Guo huining smiled and tucked her long hair behind her ear. She said slowly, “General Huo is a good person and very compa.s.sionate. When he heard that the Hong family treated me like this, he was filled with righteous indignation.”
“AH? Does that mean that he is really willing to help you? !”Dou aiyan was overjoyed. “How do they plan to help? Old Lady Hong Won’t let me off. I’m very worried about you!”
“Don’t worry. The Hong family won’t dare to do anything to me.”Guo huining had confidence and said confidently, “General Huo has already promised me to go to his house to help him take care of the housework. Although it’s only temporary, I’m now under General Huo’s command. If the Hong family wants to make things difficult for me, let’s see if they have the guts to challenge General Huo!”
“AH? ? ? ?”Dou aiyan screamed. If it weren’t for the safety belt, she would have happily climbed from the front seat to the back seat.
However, even if she couldn’t climb over, she still stretched her neck. Her face was full of excitement and asked repeatedly, “General Huo really agreed to let you stay at his house? ! He’s trying to cover for You!”
“No…”Guo huining blushed. She deliberately didn’t say that she wasn’t actually going to the Huo family’s mansion in the military compound, but to Huo Guanchen’s house outside.
She pretended to be modest and said, “Actually, I’m just going to help take care of the housework, just like a housekeeper. “You know that the Huo family has a lot of servants. General Huo can’t handle it alone, and grandfather Huo has been discharged from the hospital. There are so many rehabilitation doctors, nurses, nannies, part-time workers, gardeners, and chefs in the family. There are at least 10 to 20 people in total. He’s too busy with work and can’t manage it, so he asked me to help take care of it.”
“TSK TSK… Huining, you’re so lucky!”Dou aiyan gave her a thumbs up, she winked at her. “As far as I know, General Huo is still single after his divorce! If you can develop with General Huo, why are you afraid of Gu Nianzhi? ! I’m afraid she’ll have to kneel and beg you to be magnanimous!”
Guo Huining felt very comfortable. She ran her hands through her hair and smiled from the corners of her eyes, “Aiyan, you’re exaggerating. I’m just general Huo’s butler, how can I be so powerful? However, general Huo did say that the Hong family is too much…”
“That’s right!”Dou aiyan was not old, but she loved to think about the things between men and women. She quickly a.n.a.lyzed it for Guo Huining, “For a single man to let a single woman live in his house, even if it’s just to take care of the housework and manage the servants, it has a different meaning. At least he doesn’t hate you, and even has a good impression of you.”
“No…”Guo Huining’s face turned even redder, she denied flatly, “I really don’t. Aiyan, don’t talk nonsense. I’ll treat it as a favor to a friend. General Huo has helped me so much and returned the favor. Even if he doesn’t give me a salary, I’ll help him take care of the family affairs so that he won’t have any worries.”
“TSK TSK! That’s virtuous and virtuous!”Dou aiyan teased, she deliberately exaggerated, “Huining, I feel that you and Hong Ziqi didn’t work out all these years because G.o.d helped you. He thinks that Hong Ziqi isn’t good enough for you, so he won’t let you get married.”
“Look, isn’t a better marriage at the corner of the street? Huining, when you become General Huo’s wife in the future, don’t forget about our company!”
Dou aiyan’s flattery came from her family background and had a family background. Guo Huining, who came from an ordinary family, had never grown up in such an atmosphere, so her flattery methods were naturally not as good as Dou Aiyan’s, moreover, it was not easy to distinguish between flattery and truth.
She was elated by Dou Aiyan’s words, so she could only maintain a trace of rationality. She laughed and denied repeatedly, “No, no! Aiyan, you’re exaggerating! It’s not even close to the eight-letter word…”
In fact, in her heart, she had already secretly drawn the eight-letter word.
..
After Dou aiyan sent Guo Huining to the hotel, she hurriedly took out her phone and dialed a number.
“The situation has changed. Guo huining is going to the Huo family to be a housekeeper.”
The voice on the other end of the phone sounded like it was through a voice changer. It was a strange, high-pitched male voice.
“… Guo Huining is going to the Huo family to be a housekeeper? which Huo Family?”
“Which Huo family is there? Of course it’s Huo Shao’s Huo family. To be precise, it’s Huo Shaoheng’s father, Huo Guanchen’s family.”
Dou aiyan said with certainty that she knew Guo huining was bragging, but there was no way to make up something like being a housekeeper. It was most likely true.
“Really?”The person on the other end of the line seemed to be excited as well. “You’re really going to be a housekeeper at the Huo Family? ! Did that Huo Guanchen not remarry after the divorce? !”
“Yes, he’s still single. He doesn’t even have a girlfriend.”Dou aiyan said, slightly jealous of Guo Huining, she continued, “But I don’t think she went to the Huo family’s mansion in the military headquarters. It’s heavily guarded, so she can’t get in. It should be the Huo family’s mansion outside.”
This idiot, I didn’t expect his luck to be so good!
Other than being a little older, Huo Guanchen was more than a dozen streets ahead of Hong Ziqi in every aspect!
The person on the other end of the phone immediately said, “Then our plan has to change a little. Pay attention to Guo Huining’s movements and encourage her to pursue Huo Guanchen.”
“If she can really be Gu Nianzhi’s mother-in-law, I’ll give her a courtyard house in the second ring road as a dowry!”
Dou aiyan snorted and nodded reluctantly. “Okay, I’ll give it a try. Don’t be too hard on yourself. Huo Guanchen’s level won’t be interested in Guo Huining.”
At most, it would be fun.
“How do you know? Guo Huining’s conditions aren’t bad.”The person on the other end of the line did not seem to agree with her.
Dou aiyan smiled. “You don’t know that. I grew up in the upper cla.s.s. To them, if they really want to get married, they will be very cautious.”
“For someone at General Huo’s level, getting married is even more difficult. They have to pa.s.s the most stringent political examination. Do you think Guo Huining will pa.s.s the political examination with all the loopholes in her body?”
The other party fell silent.
Dou aiyan continued, “Besides, aren’t you afraid that the military will find out about us when they interrogate Guo Huining?”
These words were too serious. The person on the other end of the phone paused and changed his words, “Then forget it. The plan will go on as usual.”
Dou aiyan nodded in satisfaction. She thought to herself that Guo Huining was bragging and trying to raise her status. Who would really believe her?
After hanging up the phone, she looked at the night sky outside the car window and suddenly thought that her boss, who had never shown his face before, didn’t seem to come from a good background.
He actually didn’t know about the tacit rules of the upper cla.s.s..
