Hello, Mr. Major General

Qin Yaoguang smiled at her and said, “Shouyi, I know what you’re thinking, but it’s not ok to force things. You should stop thinking about your brother Ah-Chu. He belongs to Gu Nianzhi, so he can only belong to Gu Nianzhi.”

Wen Shouyi’s eyes reddened, and her heart turned cold.

She already knew that no matter how hard she tried, it would be useless. Everyone here only had Gu Nianzhi in their eyes.

No matter what she did, she couldn’t compare to her. No matter how many things she did, she couldn’t compare to her.

Wen Shouyi couldn’t help sobbing. “Auntie Qin, you should go to bed early. I’ll be leaving first.” As she spoke, she walked quickly to the door.

Qin Yaoguang laid on the bed and looked at Wen Shouyi’s staggering back. She said softly, “Silly child, no matter how good He Zhichu is, he doesn’t love you, so how could that be good to you? You’d better leave him to Gu Nianzhi.”

Wen Shouyi stopped in her tracks at the door. Without looking back, she took a deep breath and said with a wry smile, “Auntie Qin, I understand. Don’t worry, I won’t… fight with Nianzhi.”

As she spoke, she quickly walked out of Qin Yaoguang’s room and slammed the door shut. Her tears falling like rain, she leaned against the wall by the door.

…

Qin Zhining had settled the unconscious Gu Nianzhi down. When he came down from the third floor, he happened to see Wen Shouyi standing at the door of Auntie Qin’s suite on the second floor.

Qin Zhining’s mood instantly improved.

He quickly walked over, pried Wen Shouyi’s hand away, and said with a smile, “What are you doing…”

Before he could finish his sentence, he saw Wen Shouyi’s face filled with tears.

“What’s wrong? Who made you suffer?” Qin Zhining was greatly shocked. “Who dared to bully you? Auntie Qin and General He will definitely tear them apart alive!”

Wen Shouyi was just in the middle of feeling sad and sorrowful, but Qin Zhining’s words still made her smile through her tears. She raised her fist and smashed it into Qin Zhining’s chest. “You’re such a blabbermouth!”

Qin Zhining loosened his grip on her wrist and chuckled as he pulled her downstairs.

The two of them walked to Wen Shouyi’s suite downstairs. She said impulsively, “Little Qin, do you want to come to my room?”

“Huh? Really?!” Qin Zhining was overjoyed.

He had been chasing after Wen Shouyi for half a year, but Wen Shouyi had always been indifferent to him. She neither accepted nor rejected him. She just hung on to him like this, making him feel insecure.

Wen Shouyi regretted her words as soon as she said them. She shook her head again. “I’m just kidding. Alright, go back to sleep. The surgery is tomorrow. You have to take good care of yourself.”

Although it was only a minor surgery, it was still a targeted removal of the hippocampus, the part of the brain that was responsible for memory, using a gamma knife. It would be a lie to say that it didn’t harm the body at all.

However, the damage was indeed very limited. It wasn’t much worse than cutting a finger with a fruit knife, and there were no side effects, so Qin Zhining didn’t care at all.

He was very touched by Wen Shouyi’s words of concern.

He held her hand and said a few more thoughtful words before letting her go and watching her go in.

…

When Gu Nianzhi woke up in the afternoon the next day, Qin Zhining had finished his surgery and was being pushed back to his room.

Wen Shouyi had visited Gu Nianzhi’s room a few times and had finally awaited her waking up.

Gu Nianzhi had never expected that the first person she would see when she woke up would be Wen Shouyi!

She instantly felt terrible.

But she was also energized.

It had to be said that the power of hatred had been stronger than love since ancient times.

Love made people more useless every day, but hatred made people grow stronger day by day.

Gu Nianzhi felt full of fighting spirit as soon as she saw Wen Shouyi. Her mind became exceptionally clear, and her body quickly adjusted to its best condition.

She laid on the bed and looked at Wen Shouyi, who had thin eyebrows and a round face, like a doll. She only said two words, “… Get Out.”

Amused, Wen Shouyi sat down on the sofa beside her bed. She said, “Gu Nianzhi, you still don’t know how to appreciate favors. Do you know where we are? Can you stop acting like you know me? It’s disgusting.”

“Same here.” Gu Nianzhi wouldn’t let herself be at a disadvantage. “You still come to my room when I’m so disgusting? Since it’s so disgusting then open the door. How disgusting.”

Wen Shouyi blushed and paled at Gu Nianzhi’s words. She said sullenly, “I don’t understand what’s the point of you always having such a sharp-tongue.”

Gu Nianzhi snorted and pursed her lips. “I don’t understand either. You know I hate you, but you keep showing up in front of me to get dissed by me. What’s the point?”

Very few people had the upper hand when it came to bickering with Gu Nianzhi.

Wen Shouyi pursed her lips and maintained her good manners. She said, “Alright, I won’t lower myself to your level. I just wanted to let you know that since you’re awake, you should go out and meet people. Don’t just lie on the bed like you’re some rich heiress who’s being pampered by someone.”

Gu Nianzhi adjusted herself to a comfortable position on the bed and said with a smile, “You’re wrong. No matter where I am, I’m a rich heiress who’s being pampered by someone. Are you jealous?”

Wen Shouyi couldn’t help laughing and she nodded. She went along with Gu Nianzhi’s words and said half-truthfully, “Yes, I’m jealous of you. What’s wrong? You’re in charge of the world, so why do you care what other people think?”

Gu Nianzhi clicked her tongue. “Of course I don’t care what you think, but let me give you a piece of advice. Jealousy makes people ugly. Besides, you’re not beautiful to begin with.”

“You — !” No matter how well-mannered Wen Shouyi was, she was still so angry at Gu Nianzhi that she almost vomited blood.

Women cared the most about people talking about her looks, not to mention being called ugly by their love rivals. It was great humiliation.

At that moment, Wen Shouyi barely resisted the urge to remind Gu Nianzhi about the memory-stripping surgery.

She was wavering between the two great temptations of “making He Zhichu fall in love with her”and “making Gu Nianzhi an idiot.” For a moment, she couldn’t decide which one was more tempting.

Gu Nianzhi saw that Wen Shouyi was so angry at her that she was about to lose her mind, but she still had to pretend to be pleasant. Her smile became even sweeter.

She had learned from fighting online that the more the other party wanted to anger you, the more you had to take it lightly. This was the only way to make the other party vomit blood.

Fighting was like dating. Whoever cared more about losing would lose.

“What’s wrong? Did I say something wrong?” Gu Nianzhi still laid on the bed, pulled the blanket under her neck, and covered herself tightly. She closed her eyes and said nonchalantly, “Okay, you can kneel down. I want to sleep for a while.”

Wen Shouyi was so angry at Gu Nianzhi that she was about to explode.

“Kneel down?! Ha, you really take yourself seriously!” Wen Shouyi felt that the self-restraint that she had been taught by Auntie Qin for more than ten years was about to be broken.

“Of course, if you don’t take yourself seriously, how can you expect others to take you seriously?” Gu Nianzhi turned over and said lazily, “You’re born a slave, so you can’t understand the joys of being a master. If you don’t want to kneel down, then get lost.”

She was getting more and more rude.

Wen Shouyi gritted her teeth and glared at the back of Gu Nianzhi’s head. She calmed herself down for a while before saying, “I came to remind you that since you’re awake, you’ll have to undergo the memory-stripping surgery. When that time comes, I’ll see how arrogant you are!”

Gu Nianzhi frowned and turned around. She opened her eyes and asked, “What memory-stripping surgery?”

“Are you scared now?” Wen Shouyi finally found some sense of superiority in her knowledge. She bent down and looked Gu Nianzhi up and down. She said softly,”… This is Auntie Qin’s decision. Auntie Qin’s decision has never changed.”

There was a hint of schadenfreude in her tone, but she was also very cautious. There was even a hint of reverence in her tone. It was evident that she really admired this “Auntie Qin” to the extreme.

However, Gu Nianzhi was different. No matter where she was, other than Huo Shaoheng, no one else could make her lower her head.

She looked at Wen Shouyi with disdain. “Who the hell is Auntie Qin? She decides her own matters. It’s not up to a stranger to make decisions about my matters.”

“Huh? You actually said that about Auntie Qin?!” Wen Shouyi looked like she was in shock. She patted her chest lightly. She looked at Gu Nianzhi with anger, amusement, and a hint of pity, as if she was pitying her.

Gu Nianzhi raised her beautiful eyebrows. “I said that about her. What’s wrong? She thinks she can take the liberty to perform some kind of memory-stripping surgery on me. Can’t I look down on her?”

“You have to bow your head when you’re under other people’s roof, Gu Nianzhi…” Wen Shouyi shook her head and smiled. “You’d better think about how to deal with it. Otherwise, you’ll be drugged and pushed to the operating room tomorrow. It’ll be too late if you continue to act so arrogantly…”

Gu Nianzhi frowned as she watched Wen Shouyi leave. She wondered if Wen Shouyi was telling the truth.

If she was telling the truth, why did she have to remind her?

Gu Nianzhi knew this Wen Shouyi. On the surface, she appeared to be above board, but in reality, she secretly didn’t want her to have a good life.

But if Wen Shouyi was lying, what was the point of scaring her like that?

Gu Nianzhi was not one to be scared.

She sat on the bed and thought about it for a while. In the end, she decided to get out of the bed and ask Qin Zhining about it.

This person definitely wouldn’t hurt her, Gu Nianzhi was very sure.

After lifting the blanket, she found that she was still wearing the casual clothes that she had worn from the other side. Of course, they were already wrinkled and dirty.

She turned around to look under the snow-white blanket. Yes, there was still fine sand on the bed by the sea…

It could be said to be very messy.

Gu Nianzhi blushed. She instinctively wanted to take a shower, but when she looked around at the unfamiliar surroundings, she didn’t dare to go to the bathroom.

She had been bossy in front of Wen Shouyi just now by pretending to be the master, but in fact, she didn’t have any confidence at all.

What exactly was this place?

She had absolutely no idea.

Standing in front of the mirror and adjusting her clothes, Gu Nianzhi rubbed her messy hair. She simply let it down and combed it with a comb to cover her back.

Her hair was long, dark and thick. She hadn’t washed it for a few days, so it wasn’t as good as it used to be.

But she couldn’t care less.

She opened the door and peeked out to take a look.

In front of her was a low-key and luxurious corridor. It was covered with a thick carpet of Persian Dahlia, and there was an LED lamp in the shape of a blooming epiphyllum above her head every few distances away.

Gu Nianzhi looked at her watch. It was about 12 o’clock in the afternoon.

As soon as she peeked out of the door, she was spotted by the surveillance cameras in the corridor.

A waitress in a white shirt and black pants received the order and quickly came up to her from the maid’s room. She bowed respectfully to her and said, “Miss Gu, you’re awake? General He would like to invite you to his study.”
