Chapter 2072: Chapter 2072: Watching and being watched
Lu Jin was exaggerating. Lu Yuan shook his head helplessly at song jinning and said,”… ignore him. Professor Lu is a person who can talk back, but he will never speak properly.”
“What did I say wrong?”Lu Jin sent Gu Nianzhi a message and said unhappily, “Your show of affection has blinded my eyes, and you still say you didn’t show off your laser?”
It wasn’t even afternoon yet, and Gu Nianzhi was in her office writing a work plan for next year.
She heard the sound of a text message coming through her phone and glanced at it.
She stood up abruptly and hurriedly packed her Louis Vuitton bag as she replied via voice mail, “I’ll go right away! Where’s The Marriage Registry?”
Lu Jin turned on the voice mail, and both Lu Yuan and song jinning heard it.
The two of them smiled awkwardly, and song jinning turned to Lu Jin,”… It’s at the Civil Affairs Bureau near the Inst.i.tute of High Energy Physics.”
This was the place they had discussed when they filed the marriage report.

Lu Jin quickly sent the address to Gu Nianzhi and forwarded it to Huo Shaoheng.
Huo Shaoheng had just finished his meeting and was coming out of the meeting room, chatting and laughing with Yin s.h.i.+xiong and Zhao liangze.
The special operations forces had been involved in the case of Keven, but it was being investigated abroad. So far, they had found quite a few interesting things. Today’s meeting was to summarize the results of the current stage of the case, they also had to start writing a report for the relevant authorities in the country to refer to.
He was in a good mood.
When he returned to his office, he saw that his personal phone on his desk was vibrating, and several text messages popped up.
He picked it up and opened it. His mind went blank.
Although he really wanted his mother and his uncle to be happy, when the day really came, he realized that his feelings were still very subtle.
Of course, he wouldn’t object, but his uncle had become his stepfather. This… he shouldn’t think too much about it.
Huo Shaoheng remained calm and composed as he replied, “I’ll be right there.”.
He picked up his car keys and said to Yin s.h.i.+xiong and Zhao liangze, “I have something to do, so I’ll be leaving first. If you guys are free, you can get off work earlier.”
Yin s.h.i.+xiong laughed and said, “Huo Shao, are you going to spend Christmas with Nianzhi Too?”
Huo Shaoheng was slightly taken aback.”… Christmas? I never celebrate foreign holidays.”
“Oh, that’s right.”Yin s.h.i.+xiong scratched his head in embarra.s.sment.”… But it’s Christmas Eve today, and Qiqi asked me to pick her up early.”
Seeing Huo Shaoheng’s expression change slightly, yin s.h.i.+xiong quickly said, “We don’t celebrate Christmas… but Christmas… I’ll tell Qiqi that we’re going out for a meal…”
He chuckled and ran out first.
Zhao liangze smiled and shook his head, trying to smooth things over for Yin s.h.i.+xiong. “Huo Shao, Big Xiong just likes to have fun. He doesn’t mean anything by it. He won’t celebrate foreign holidays.”
The military did not celebrate foreign holidays. Although there was no written rule, everyone was already tacitly understanding.
Even if someone wanted to celebrate, they would only secretly celebrate it with their close relatives and friends. No one would say it out loud.
Huo Shaoheng did not have a bad impression of foreign festivals. He was simply not interested in them.
However, when he thought about that Christmas Day, he had rushed to the capital from C city in the middle of the night on a special plane. He had picked up Gu Nianzhi, who had been sitting alone at the train station late at night, and brought her home, a warm feeling welled up in his heart.
It was at that time that Gu Nianzhi had met the mentally deranged song jinning.
Two years had pa.s.sed, and not only had song jinning completely recovered, but she was also going to get married again.
She hoped that this time, the two of them would really be able to live happily ever after.
Huo Shaoheng’s subtle emotions finally dissipated.
He did not look for a driver. Instead, he drove himself to the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau near the Inst.i.tute of High Energy Physics.
He parked his car by the side of the road and realized that he was early.
He took out his phone and checked. Not only was Gu Nianzhi absent, but the two newlyweds from today were also absent. The Witness, Professor Lu, was nowhere to be seen.
He got out of the car and leaned against the door. He took out a cigarette and started smoking.
The recent events had been one after another. Even the failure of the experiment 18 years ago had finally been picked up by the military from the pile of old papers and reopened the investigation.
Although this was a domestic matter, the appearance of Keven, an American citizen of Chinese descent, meant that the enemies involved might be colluding with external forces. Therefore, Huo Shaoheng’s special operations forces had been justified in intervening.
He had already stayed up for a few nights without sleep, and there was not much redness in his eyes. However, the ends of his eyes were a little red, and he turned his eyes slightly, looking very charming.
He was wearing a dark green military jacket, which matched his handsome and masculine face perfectly. It was almost like the temptation of a uniform.
Gu Nianzhi personally drove her car from the Senate. Because she was anxious, she changed gears all the way and turned an ordinary SUV into an equation racing car.
When she stopped at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau with a squeak, she pushed open the car door and saw Huo Shaoheng standing in front of her without batting an eyelid. He said,”… you’re speeding again?”
Gu Nianzhi shrunk her neck in guilt and got out of the car with a smile. She hugged Huo Shaoheng’s arm and said, “How am I speeding? I drive at a normal speed wherever there’s a speed test.”
“What about places where there’s no speed test?”Huo Shaoheng looked down at her and said plainly, “Are you playing word games with me? HMM?”
Gu Nianzhi was most afraid of Huo Shaoheng speaking to her in that tone.
She blinked, and tears welled up in her dark, glazed eyes.
Huo Shaoheng stroked her head,”… Today is a good day for President Lu and Ms. Song to get married. Don’t Jinx them. Otherwise, president Lu won’t Cook Good Food for you in the future.”
Gu Nianzhi turned her head away and immediately stopped crying, saying, “Then don’t be so fierce to me… I’m just driving. Are you still worried about my skills?”
“It’s not that I’m worried, but speeding is always wrong. You’re already the chief legal advisor of the Senate. Your every move is being watched.”Huo Shaoheng took her hand, they walked side by side to the Civil Affairs Bureau. “Don’t think that you only need to slow down at the speed test. Just you wait…”
Gu Nianzhi really didn’t think so much. She looked at Huo Shaoheng in surprise and said, “No Way? There’s someone watching me 24 hours a day?”
“24 hours isn’t much, but there’s definitely someone keeping an eye on you for eight hours a day. You’re a public figure now, so you should be aware of that and be prepared to be watched at all times,”Huo Shaoheng said calmly, “It’s not just you. It’s the same for the other senators in the Senate. Countless people want to catch them in the act so that they can be brought down during the next election.”
Gu Nianzhi pouted. “I’m not from the election. As long as speaker long doesn’t mind, I’m not afraid of anyone.”
Even though she said that, she still kept an eye out for any comments about her online.
When she and Huo Shaoheng walked into the civil affairs bureau side by side, she didn’t notice that someone had just gotten out of the car.
When he saw her and Huo Shaoheng walk into the civil affairs bureau side by side, that person’s face instantly contorted to a steely green.
“… I can’t believe she’s really going to marry Huo Shao? ! On what basis? !”
