Finding out who Yamaguchi Youko was not going to make them relax.
That night, Huo Shaoheng couldn't sleep for some reason. He tossed and turned on the guest bed for half a day before finally getting up and going to the base's information room in the middle of the night to look up some old files.
Although it was the age of the Internet, anyone who understood the principles of the Internet knew how insecure it was.
For example, one of his personal secretaries, Zhao Liangze, could demonstrate a hundred ways to crack all kinds of Internet security systems and hack into your computer, phone, or tablet.
Therefore, the Imperial Army still chose to preserve a lot of top-secret information on paper and not on the Internet.
The information room even had the most primitive bamboo slips and stone carvings engraved on it because only bamboo slips and stone carvings could last the longest.
He worked there until the next morning before dozing off on the table in the information room until he was woken up by the knocking of the information room's management.
The information room was shielded from all electromagnetic and radio signals. Phones could not be made in, and there were no telephone lines.
Therefore, communication was basically through shouting. No one in the room could hear him unless he shouted.
"Chief! Chief! Your personal secretary is looking for you urgently! "
The knocking finally woke Huo Shaoheng, who had just closed his eyes.
He composed himself and went to the bathroom inside the information room to wipe his face with cold water. Looking at his watch, he realized it was already eight in the morning.
As soon as he walked out of the information room, Huo Shaoheng's Bluetooth headset rang.
It was his other personal secretary, Yin Shixiong.
"What is it?"
"Huo Shao, Miss Gu has an interview today! Her faculty has been calling many times. Even Professor He himself has called to ask about it. " Yin Shixiong's tone was a bit anxious. Three days ago, he had specifically gone to the C University Faculty of Law to help Gu Nianzhi request a leave of absence and had finally gotten Professor He Zhichu to agree to postpone the interview for three days.
If she was late again, Yin Shixiong couldn't imagine how bad Professor He's impression of Gu Nianzhi would be.
To think that he had bragged that Gu Nianzhi had always "admired" Professor He …
Huo Shaoheng rubbed his brows and replied as he walked, "I'll call Chen Lie."
Chen Lie picked up and before Huo Shaoheng could speak, Chen Lie had already said, "Huo Shao, Nianzhi hasn't woken up yet, but her fever has gone down a bit."
"What's going on? Don't you have a clue? "Huo Shaoheng stopped in his tracks and looked up at his little building. He was in a bad mood.
He took out a cigarette and smoked under the tree in front of the building.
Chen Lie was also full of grievances. "Huo Shao, I can guarantee that her health is absolutely fine. I monitored her heartbeat and pulse 24 hours a day and tested her blood every two hours … "
"Every two hours. Is she your blood bank? I think you might as well tear her apart and turn her into a specimen. " Huo Shaoheng made a rare sarcastic remark, which was very rare for Major General Huo, who never showed his emotions on his face.
Chen Lie had no way to refute. He could only cover his face and accept the mockery.
Huo Shaoheng hung up and was about to call Yin Shixiong back when he heard the operator's voice again. "Mr. Huo, Professor He from the B University Faculty of Law has strongly requested to speak to you personally."
Huo Shaoheng thought about it. With a cigarette in one hand and the other in the pocket of his military trousers, he leaned against the tree and said calmly, "Take it."
Actually, Huo Shaoheng hadn't personally taken care of Gu Nianzhi in the six years she had been with him. He was only there in name.
Gu Nianzhi was already 12 when she started working with him. She had the ability to live on her own, so she didn't need his hands-on care.
Everything related to Gu Nianzhi's school had been handled by his personal secretary, Yin Shixiong.
But this time, the situation was more serious, and Yin Shixiong probably couldn't handle it.
The sound of the call being connected came from the Bluetooth earpiece. Huo Shaoheng didn't speak. The other party was silent for a second before asking first, "May I ask if this is Gu Nianzhi's guardian, Mr. Huo?"
Huo Shaoheng grunted. "Yes, what do you want?"
"Gu Nianzhi postponed her interview today," He Zhichu said simply, his voice very cold. "She's late for the second time."
"Yeah, I want to ask for a few more days off. She's not feeling well." Huo Shaoheng flicked the cigarette ash and said calmly.
He Zhichu was obviously angered by his nonchalant attitude. "She's still asking for more days off? Don't go overboard. I've already given her a chance. It's unfair to the other candidates if I accommodate her again. You're Gu Nianzhi's guardian, so I'm officially informing you that she won't get a chance to enter the B University Faculty of Law this summer. You'll have to find someone else. "He hung up.
Huo Shaoheng frowned but didn't take it seriously. He turned around and went to his office to work.
…
In the next few days, not only did the people around Gu Nianzhi suffer, but the Fengs were even more worried.
The development of the situation was completely out of their expectations.
The high-end club in C City, Fulin Restaurant, was the property of Feng Yixi's uncle, the Hu family. Because of the incident between Feng Yixi and Hu Chuanxin that night, the Hu family not only faced a sky-high fine, but were also burdened with debt. The bank refused to continue lending them money and instead urged them to repay immediately. Their friends and relatives in the industry also avoided them.
The only family that could help them, the Fengs, were already in trouble.
The Hu family had no choice but to declare bankruptcy. They no longer had the money to hire an expensive lawyer to bail Hu Chuanxin out.
Hu Chuanxin was also found to have repeatedly used drugs on minors. Coupled with the fact that he provided a place to take illegal drugs, the evidence was conclusive. He would be sentenced to life imprisonment at the very least.
The Fengs were a complete mess.
The Fengting Home Improvement Company was found to have falsified accounts to obtain bank loans and evaded taxes. Not only was there no hope for the company to go public, but Feng Guodong and Hu Qiaozhen were also convicted and sentenced to prison.
Feng Yixi's crime was lighter. She was only guilty of taking illegal drugs and possessing an excessive amount of illegal drugs. She was sentenced to three months of detention and one year of re-education through labor.
Because she had broken the law, the C University Faculty of Law expelled her according to school rules. Of course, there was no chance of her graduating certificate.
The Fengs' property, savings, and all of their valuables were confiscated by the bank to pay off their debts. The only person who had not been involved in a lawsuit was the eldest daughter of the Fengs, Feng Yichen. Overnight, she had gone from being a princess with a fortune of tens of millions to an ordinary person with no permanent assets.
She could not accept such a drastic change.
Early that morning, Feng Yichen was carrying a small Louis Vuitton suitcase. She turned around to look at the villa she had lived in for more than ten years. Her expression was one of sadness.
"Sister Yichen, Brother Biao is waiting for you." A skinny man with dyed blond hair opened the car door with a smile and invited Feng Yichen in.
Feng Yichen turned around and glanced at the black Mercedes-Benz 700. Her mood improved a little. She bent over and got in.
