Chapter 275: Transfer Order
After three rings, the phone call went through…
“Is something the matter?”
The voice from the opposite end was low pitched and s.e.xy. He asked right away, evidently knowing that it was Gu Qingjiu who called.
Somehow, Gu Qingjiu’s heart would always flutter whenever she heard this voice. Even her face would flush. “Chief Instructor, my Dad is already home. Thank you very much!”
“I know.”
His tone made Gu Qingjiu a little speechless, for he sounded like he had everything under control.
In order to prevent the atmosphere from becoming awkward, she quickly stated the purpose of the phone call. “Chief Instructor, it’s like this. My parents are very thankful for your help this time. I can’t do anything in return as grat.i.tude, for now, so I would like to invite you for a meal on the 4th of March at the Gu Yu Hotel. Would you be free to come?”
“…”
The person on the other end of the line remained silent for a while.
Gu Qingjiu became a little anxious.
On one hand, she’d already expected the Chief Instructor to reject the invitation. However, on the other hand, a tiny part of her hoped that he would accept.
“Okay.”
She heard his reply. Her originally strung up heart suddenly relaxed at his voice.
“Okay, Chief Instructor! We will be waiting for you then!”
She was slightly excited. She couldn’t hide her happiness even across the call.
When she hung up the call, she naturally couldn’t see He Niancheng’s lips curling upwards.
Even the coldest icebergs would melt one day.
Huo Yingcheng’s face was colored with disbelief and shock when he rushed into the room to see the smile on He Niancheng’s face. Moreover, he hadn’t wiped it from his face yet!
Which shocked him further!
“You… You…”
He pointed at He Niancheng. His expression was that of someone who had just seen something unacceptable.
He Niancheng frowned and his voice turned stern. “You can’t even articulate yourself properly now?”
“Major-General…. you…” No matter how he thought about it, asking about why he was smiling was probably pointless. Huo Yingcheng angrily showed the paper in his hand. “What is this?! Major-General, tell me what this is?!”
He Niancheng only swept his eyes over it, not bothering to even take a closer look. He replied in a nonchalant tone, “You’ve been in China for so long and you cannot even read simple Chinese characters?”
“Of course, I can read them. I’m asking you about the reason behind this! A transfer order?! Major-General, why do you want to get transferred to the capital? Old Master is aware of this and is getting me to ask you what exactly you want to do!”
“He made you ask me, but does that mean you can ask me with such an att.i.tude?”
He Niancheng narrowed his eyes and a dangerous aura surrounded him, causing Huo Yingcheng to retreat instantly.
“Major-General, I just don’t understand…”
He had just returned from the empire yesterday, and the Old Master rushed him back to the camp.
And the reason for that was because He Niancheng went around the Empire to submit a transfer request to China.
He requested to be transferred to the capital!
Heck. Can someone who was exiled act more like his part?
Did he think that he could transfer anytime he wanted to?
China sent that information to the Empire in confusion, but in the end, still approved the transfer application.
The Old Master was so furious that his heart attack almost acted up.
He Niancheng didn’t answer any of the Empire’s calls either.
It was why Huo Yingcheng had to rush back.
He was going to ask about this matter.
“Major-General, you cannot do these things so brashly. You’re here as a punishment. If you’re so wilful and transfer as and when you wished, wouldn’t it look bad?”
Huo Yingcheng tried his best to make his words sound amicable.
Else, not only would He Niancheng not let him off, he might even be scolded by the Old Master when he got back.
d.a.m.n this slave life!
