Chapter 1648: The Prince and The Princess

Lu Yuan immediately put on his usual warm smile and looked at Huo Shaoheng, then said kindly, “Mr. Peter, it’s rare for major shareholder Lu Jin to entrust his daughter to another man. You’ve set a record this time. You must not let major shareholder Lu Jin down, okay?”

Huo Shaoheng’s heart skipped a beat. He immediately understood the meaning behind Lu Yuan’s words.

First of all, Lu Jin seemed to have softened his attitude towards him. Had he already started to acknowledge him?

Second of all, Lu Jin really doted on his precious daughter to the extreme. Gu Nianzhi was only going to the revolving restaurant to have a meal with Luo Piaopiao, but Lu Jin was actually worried about her going alone.

According to what Huo Shaoheng knew, this revolving restaurant was obviously a public place. Why would Lu Jin be worried? Was it because Luo Piaopiao was a member of the Qin family? Was it actually the Qin family that Lu Jin was worried about?

Third of all, if Lu Jin was worried, why can’t he personally accompany her? He didn’t need to go with Gu Nianzhi. He could go one after she went and stay in the private room. No one else would realize Lu Jin and Gu Nianzhi’s relationship.

Fourth of all, if Lu Jin wouldn’t go himself, what did he want to do?

Huo Shaoheng knew very well that the only thing Lu Jin wanted to do right now was to accompany his daughter.

But he was passing on this precious opportunity to someone else...

Lu Yuan only said one sentence, but Huo Shaoheng had already quickly analyzed it deeply.

However, although he thought about so much in a flash, he didn’t show it on his face at all. He nodded reservedly and said, “Uncle Lu, President Lu, don’t worry. I will send Miss Gu there safely and smoothly.”

Gu Nianzhi looked at Lu Jin in shock, then at Huo Shaoheng. She asked in confusion, “It’s just a meal at the revolving restaurant. I don’t need Mr. Peter to accompany me, right? Besides, he’s a Soviet diplomat, and I’m just a commoner. How can I let him accompany me?”

Moreover, she was going to accomplish a mission. She had to get a few strands of Luo Piaopiao’s hair to do a DNA test.

Huo Shaoheng’s eyes were sharp and keen. What if she couldn’t hide her moves from him?

Gu Nianzhi subconsciously didn’t want to drag Huo Shaoheng into the Qin family’s business.

This was her family’s business and her battlefield. Although Huo Shaoheng was powerful, he could only conceal his identity and use someone else’s identity. It was obvious that he was in a difficult situation.

Gu Nianzhi didn’t want to drag Huo Shaoheng down with this matter.

Lu Jin yawned and said ambiguously with a smile, “It’s just a meal, so let her go have a meal with Mr. Peter. Besides, when a woman goes out, she looks noble with a man by her side.”

Lu Yuan smiled and “translated” his words for him. “Nianzhi, what your father means is that you have to bring a follower. I think Mr. Peter is quite willing to be your follower, isn’t that right, Mr. Peter?”

Huo Shaoheng leaned over to Gu Nianzhi and said enthusiastically, “Since I said I want to pursue you, then I have to show my sincerity.”

“You really have a lot of sincerity, but I just don’t like it. What should I do?” Gu Nianzhi hugged her panda pillow. She rested her beautiful little chin on the panda’s head and looked down at the white carpet with abstract geometric patterns on the ground, hiding the sly smile that flashed in her eyes.

“It’s okay. One day, you’ll like me,” Huo Shaoheng, completely unbothered by Gu Nianzhi’s rejection, said confidently.

Lu Jin’s eyes were filled with jealousy. He had finally found a great treasure, and he wasn’t willing to let her go to someone else just like that.

He frowned and said to Huo Shaoheng, “You don’t have to exaggerate things so much. I just want you to accompany her to dinner. I can see that you’re already thinking about getting married and having children. There are many people chasing after our Nianzhi. Go line up.”

Huo Shaoheng: “...”

Lu Yuan watched from the side with a relaxed expression.

At least Lu Jin’s venomous tongue was no longer used on him. It was quite interesting to watch Lu Jin rebuke others.

The corners of Gu Nianzhi’s lips curled up. She got up and said, “It’s getting late. I’m going back to my room to rest. I’m going out to eat tomorrow, so I need to sleep more.”

“Go, go.” When Lu Jin turned to look at Gu Nianzhi, the affection in his eyes was almost overflowing. “Sleep more tomorrow. I’ll wake you up at 10.”

Huo Shaoheng immediately went with the flow. “Then I’ll come at 9:30 tomorrow.”

“What will you be doing here so early?” Lu Jin’s face darkened when he looked towards Huo Shaoheng. “You’ll be the chauffeur and bodyguard tomorrow. Just wait in the car.”

Huo Shaoheng: “...”

Gu Nianzhi couldn’t hold back the laughter in her heart. She carried the panda pillow back to her bedroom and quickly closed the door. She leaned against the back of the door, then laughed so hard that her shoulders trembled and she was about to cramp up.

Oh My God! Her daddy is so awesome!

Gu Nianzhi was in a great mood.

She threw the panda pillow onto the bed and stood up with the door in her hand. She laughed for a while before going to the bathroom to wash up.

After completing her evening maintenance procedures, she crawled into the thin, soft silk blanket and slept soundly.

When she woke up the next morning, it was already past nine o’clock.

The curtains were low, blocking the sunlight outside the window. The room was still dark, as if it was still night.

Gu Nianzhi picked up her phone on the bedside table and looked at it. It was past nine o’clock.

She rubbed her eyes and sat up. She sent He Zhichu a text message.

As soon as she sent it, He Zhichu immediately replied, “... You finally sent me a message. You promised to send me a message when you got home yesterday. Did you forget?”

He sent a voice message.

Gu Nianzhi: “...”

She hadn’t forgotten, but she hadn’t had the chance to send it.

She replied with a smile, “So you’re not sending it? Actually, I’m already home. It’s fine, it’s fine.”

He Zhichu was sitting in front of the window with his phone in his hand. He said a few words to his phone before saying, “Today is the New Year. Aren’t you coming to my house to celebrate the New Year together?”

Gu Nianzhi refused with a smile, “No need, I still have things to do. Today, I’m meeting a friend at the revolving restaurant in the Sanhuan Road for a lobster feast. I hope it will be delicious and not disappoint my expectations.”

He Zhichu replied with an “oh.” He asked casually, “Who are you having dinner with?”

“Luo Piaopiao. I’m getting along quite well with her.” Gu Nianzhi smiled as she pulled the covers off the bed.

He Zhichu was a little surprised. “Luo Piaopiao? I thought you and Xie Qingying were getting along well.”

Gu Nianzhi laughed. She didn’t want to talk about Xie Qingying, so she quickly said, “We’re good too, just like me and Luo Piaopiao. It’s just that Cousin Xie is quite busy, unlike Luo Piaopiao, who only knows how to eat, drink, and have fun... Alright, I’m not going to talk to you anymore. I’m going to be late. Goodbye, Young Master He!”

Gu Nianzhi hung up the phone and went to the bathroom to shower and wash her hair.

He Zhichu saw that she was no longer replying, so he looked at his phone for a while before putting it back into his pocket.

He looked at the winter scenery outside the window and stood there quietly for a while. He took out his phone again to reply to Xie Qingying’s invitation. “Okay, what time is it?”

Xie Qingying had just returned from working out. When she heard the sound of a text message coming in, she quickly took out her phone to take a look.

When she saw that He Zhichu had agreed to her invitation, she was overjoyed and quickly called him. “Young Master He, are you really free tonight?”

“Yes, it’s just New Year’s Eve.” There were only two people at home, so it wouldn’t be a big deal even if it was New Year’s Eve, let alone New Year’s Eve.

Xie Qingying was extremely excited. She covered her chest with one hand and felt her heart beating rapidly. She smiled and said, “That’s great. We’ll go to the opera in the capital at 7 pm. The National Ballet of the Soviet Union has been touring in the Huaxia Empire recently. This is the last and best performance.”

“Really, what is it?” He Zhichu asked calmly and his face was expressionless.

“It’s a traditional classic, ‘Swan Lake.’ I heard from my friends that the four little swans in it are very good at dancing. When I was studying ballet, I liked to dance with people about the four little swans.”

Xie Qingying talked endlessly about ballet.

He Zhichu suddenly realized that if Gu Nianzhi had grown up with him here, she would probably have gone to learn ballet as well. However, her dancing skills were probably not that developed. She would definitely be quite cute dancing along with her chubby hands and feet.

He Zhichu smiled and spoke in a softer tone of voice.

“Okay, I’ll go,” he replied gently.

Xie qingying felt her legs go soft.

Oh my, his voice is too charming...

She took a deep breath and didn’t want to put down the phone. She racked her brains to find something to say. “Young Master He, have you watched the ‘Swan Lake’ before?”

“I’ve heard of it, but I’ve never watched it.”He Zhichu sat on the sofa and picked up the iPad to watch the news. He put on his Bluetooth headset and spoke to Xie Qingying.

Xie Qingying sat on the sofa in her room as well. She smiled and said, “Then do you know that there are actually two versions and two endings of ‘Swan Lake’?”

“Oh? I’d like to hear the details.”

“It’s like this. ‘Swan Lake’ is about a princess who is enchanted by a magician. She is a swan during the day and a princess at night. Only when she finds a man who truly loves her will she be able to get rid of this curse.”

“A prince took a fancy to her and invited her to his coming-of-age ball. He would choose her as his wife at the ball.”

“In the end, the magician brought his own daughter here. His own daughter disguised herself as this princess and bewitched the Prince.”

“The Prince mistook her for someone else. He thought that the magician’s daughter was the Swan Princess that he took a fancy to, so he got engaged to her.”

“In the end, when the prince realized that he mistook the wrong person, it was already too late. He rushed to the Swan Lake to save his princess, and then the mage also rushed there to kill the prince who had reneged on his promise to marry his daughter.”

Xie Qingying paused and asked, “Young Master He, are you listening?”

He Zhichu nodded. “And then?”

“And then there are two versions of the ending

“One is that the princess jumped into the lake to save the Prince and died for him, and the Prince died for love.”

“The other is that the prince saved the princess, and love triumphed over evil.”

“I wonder which version the ballet troupe will perform this time.”

He Zhichu raised his head and smiled. “Which version do you want?”

“Of course, the version where the prince saved the princess, and love triumphed over evil,” Xie Qingying said resolutely.
