Hello, Mr. Major General

Chapter 1569: Peak Of Beauty

It was almost seven o’clock. It was very cold outside. The cold wind carried the cold air from the far north and swept through the winter night in the capital.

Wen Shouyi anxiously glanced at the flower path by the door of the mansion and turned to enter.

It seemed that there was something wrong there.

She suppressed the uneasiness in her heart and re-entered the living room.

This used to be a place she was very familiar with. After Gu Nianzhi’s sudden disappearance, she took her place and lived here for a few years.

Unfortunately, it didn’t take long for her beautiful dream to be shattered.

Wen Shouyi’s gaze moved from the bustling crowd in the living room to the ceiling above her head.

Three crystal lamps hung from the ceiling in an equilateral triangle.

The tubes of the three crystal lamps had been specially treated. They brought with them a soft glowing effect. When they shone on the faces of the guests, each of them looked more or less prettier.

The living room was very spacious. In the middle, there were a few pillars that were as thick as the door. Naturally, the living room was divided into several areas.

There was a mural on the north side facing the main door, but Wen Shouyi knew that it was actually a door.

In the past, General He and his wife, who had hosted the Christmas party, would come out of that door to receive the worship and cheers of the crowd.

This year, He Zhichu had returned, and General He had divorced Auntie Qin. Who would be the female host of the party?

Wen Shouyi thought to herself. She separated the crowd and came to Qin Yaoguang’s side. She whispered into her ear, “Auntie Qin, there’s no movement from Gu Nianzhi’s side.”

“... Didn’t you say she’s already here? Did your mother send the flowers in?” Qin Yaoguang smiled and looked ahead, but her lips moved slightly as she spoke to Wen Shouyi.

Wen Shouyi shook her head regretfully. “... My mother went but hasn’t returned yet. I don’t know what happened. Could something have happened?”

Qin Yaoguang immediately said, “Have you made it clear to your mother? If something happens to her, she can’t give you up.”

Because if she exposed Wen Shouyi, she would expose Qin Yaoguang.

This was her true meaning. She couldn’t be implicated.

A trace of disdain flashed across Wen Shouyi’s eyes, but she still had a sweet smile on her face. She said, “My mother won’t. Even if something happens to her, she definitely won’t expose me. I’m their only hope. They love me so much that they would rather die for me than involve me.”

“That’s good, that’s good.” Qin Yaoguang retracted her gaze and glanced at her indifferently. “If anything happens to your parents, I’ll make it up to you.”

Wen Shouyi felt a little uncomfortable.

Although she had been brooding over her identity as a gardener’s daughter, they were her biological parents after all. Moreover, they had done their best to create all the conditions for her to obtain the best learning resources and fulfill her dreams.

And Qin Yaoguang had played it down as if those were not two living human lives, but two discarded items.

But Wen Shouyi also knew that Qin Yaoguang was such a person.

Not to mention other people’s parents, even towards her own biological daughter, wasn’t her treatment of her also frighteningly cold-blooded?

Thinking of this, Wen Shouyi felt relieved again.

Genius scientists probably had some quirks.

Wasn’t that Gu Xiangwen, who had been burned to death by the fire, also terrifyingly crazy?

She glanced at Qin Yaoguang and said with a smile, “Auntie Qin, you’re really good to me.”

“This is because you are capable.” Qin Yaoguang’s face was full of smiles, and her voluptuous lips curled up. “You stand out. Otherwise, why would I bother with someone who doesn’t have capabilities?”

Over the past few years, Wen Shouyi had gradually become her right-hand woman, and Qin Yaoguang couldn’t do without her help.

The two of them spoke in a low voice for a while, then Old Master Qin asked his nephew to come over and invite Qin Yaoguang over.

The social circle they were in was slightly more high-end than the social circle where Qin Yaoguang and Wen Shouyi were standing.

Qin Yaoguang placed the wine glasses in Wen Shouyi’s hand and followed her cousin over.

Wen Shouyi was holding two wine glasses, just like the waiters who came and went at the ball. She was very embarrassed and quickly waved for a waiter to come over, and placed the two wine glasses on his tray.

“Miss Wen, long time no see.” Just as she put down the wine glasses, she heard someone greeting her.

Wen Shouyi turned around and saw that it was Xie Qingying, the niece of the prime minister, Xie Beichen. She quickly put on a smile and said, “Eh, Miss Xie? Long time no see.”

The two of them used to know each other because of the He family, and they were quite familiar with each other.

However, after Wen Shouyi left the imperial city with He Zhichu, and she heard that she had gone abroad, so her relationship with Xie Qingying was cut off.

Xie Qingying nodded at her. “Miss Wen, do you know who will be hosting the dance tonight?”

“I’m not sure. I’m also guessing.” Wen Shouyi smiled at her. “What do you think, Miss Xie?”

“I can’t guess. I’ll just watch the show.” As Xie Qingying spoke, the hall suddenly quieted down.

She and Wen Shouyi subconsciously turned their heads.

A man and a woman, both extremely beautiful, walked in from the door of the living room. The crowd stared at them in shock.

The man was tall and straight. He wore a fitting tuxedo. His eyes were deep and reserved. His appearance was exquisite and beautiful, like a meticulous painting. Every stroke was perfectly beautiful.

It was God’s most prized work. Other men standing next to him were half-finished products that God had casually thrown out of the mud. The contrast was devastating.

Wen Shouyi’s heart skipped a beat.

Wasn’t this the deputy chief consul of the Soviet Union?

It was said that his name was Peter, and that his Chinese name was also Huo Shaoheng. However, she had heard from Qin Yaoguang that this was not Major General Huo from the other side. This was his counterpart in their world.

When she saw him for the first time at a diplomatic event, she was also a little surprised.

However, she had more experience than others, so she quickly calmed down.

Now that she saw him again, she could already treat him like a stranger.

Therefore, when Xie Qingying asked curiously, “Who is that person? Why is he so good-looking?”

Wen Shouyi said aloofly, “I don’t know, I don’t know him. Why don’t I help you ask around?”

“No, no, no, there’s no need.” Xie Qingying quickly shook her head and pouted. “Look at the woman next to him. She’s also a rare beauty.”

The woman next to Peter was Linda, who had just come from the Soviet Union.

She was his female companion for the night. She wore a rose-red evening gown. The front was slanted, and her entire left leg was faintly visible from the bottom to the top. She was extremely beautiful.

This man and woman were present together could really be considered the peak of beauty today.

Therefore, when they entered, everyone was stunned.

After a while, the situation in the living room returned to its previous state. Everyone started to brag and chat as if nothing had happened.

Xie Qingying said, “Excuse me.” She immediately found someone to inquire about the identity of the man and woman who had just entered.

The Ace of the Far East was the deputy chief consul of the Soviet consulate general in C City. He had participated in several diplomatic activities and many people had seen him. When they saw that it was the prime minister’s niece asking about him, everyone started to explain to her.

“This is the new Deputy Chief Consul sent by the Soviet Union to the consulate general in C city. I heard that he is only 30 years old and is still very young!”

“The beauty next to him is his female companion. I heard that she just came from the Soviet Union to see him.”

Deputy Chief Consul Peter bent his arm and held Linda’s hand. He walked in with a face full of arrogance and coldness. He did not even bat an eyelid at anyone.
