Hello, Mr. Major General

Xie Qingying’s movements were gentle and swift.

She tiptoed, held He Zhichu’s cheek, and pecked his thin lips like a dragonfly skimming the water.

His lips were not as cold as he looked. They were warm and smooth like lychee jelly.

He Zhichu did not turn his head. He stood motionlessly in front of the dining table WHILE still holding the unfinished cigarette in one hand.

He looked down at Xie Qingying. From this angle, he could see that Xie Qingying’s pretty face was somewhat similar to Gu Nianzhi’s…

His heart softened and he did not push her away in time.

After Xie Qingying finished kissing him, she immediately let go of him and took a step back. She tapped her lips with her finger and said mischievously, “A belated new year’s kiss. Consider it my new year’s gift to you. Happy New Year, He Zhichu.”

He Zhichu responded with a simple “hmm” and did not say anything else. His expression was still as calm as ever.

He raised his hand and took a puff of his cigarette. He nodded casually and sat down to eat the food that Xie Qingying had brought him.

“Please make me a cup of black coffee,” He Zhichu said without raising his head. He put out the cigarette in the ashtray and picked up his knife and fork to cut the steak.

“Uh… Okay, I’ll be right there.” Xie Qingying was worried and a little embarrassed.

Fortunately, He Zhichu did not say anything. It was just like a friendly kiss between friends. The only difference was that she did not kiss his cheek, but his lips…

Xie Qingying got up to make black coffee for He Zhichu. She walked through the messy hall, passed by her friends who were sleeping on the sofa in the living room, and came to the kitchen.

In the living room, she had just left when one of He Chengjian’s personal secretary, Old Zhou, came to He Zhichu and said with a smile, “Did you have a good time yesterday, Young Master He?”

He Zhichu looked up at him and wiped his mouth with a tissue. “I’m fine. What’s the matter? Is something wrong with my father?”

Old Zhou laughed and winked at He Zhichu. “General He is just worried about Young Master He, so he asked me to come and take a look. In the end, I saw such a romantic scene!”

He Zhichu laughed. “Old Zhou, I didn’t know you had such a gossipy heart.”

“That’s not gossiping. I saw it with my own eyes,” Old Zhou said wistfully. “Actually, Miss Xie is pretty good. Other than Miss Gu, General He only likes Miss Xie. I didn’t expect that Young Master He and General He have the same taste.”

He Zhichu: “…”

He shrugged. “We’re friends. We grew up together. You’re overthinking things.”

Old Zhou smiled but did not say anything.

In the past, Young Master He had avoided all other women except Gu Nianzhi. How could any woman be a meter away from him?

Even Wen Shouyi, who had once replaced Gu Nianzhi, had not had any physical contact with him.

In Old Zhou’s opinion, Xie Qingying was already a special case for He Zhichu.

He Zhichu was noncommittal, and he would not deliberately deny it.

That would make him look like a heartless person.

He took out his lighter, lit another cigarette, and asked, “What’s the matter? I’m not a three-year-old kid. Do you have to check up on me every once in a while when I’m not home?”

He Chengjian had asked his personal secretary to look for him. There must be something else.

Old Zhou smiled and coughed softly. “Something did happen. Young Master He, let’s talk about it when we get back.”

He Zhichu nodded. He stood up, put his coat on his arm, and followed Old Zhou to the door.

Just as he walked out of the living room, he bumped into Xie Qingying, who had just brought the coffee.

“Young Master He, where are you going? The coffee is ready.” She walked over with a smile on her face.

He Zhichu nodded and said coldly, “I have something to do at home. I’ll go back first. I’ll contact you later.”

The person walking beside him was He Chengjian’s personal secretary, Old Zhou. Xie Qingying also recognized him.

He smiled and nodded at her. He politely greeted her, “Miss Xie.”

“Uh… Okay, I’ll contact you later,” Xie Qingying said subconsciously. She nodded at Old Zhou and watched as He Zhichu and his father’s personal secretary, Old Zhou, turned around and left.

Her best friend sneakily came over and said with a smile, “Qingying, you’re amazing… How is it? Did you take down Young Master He?”

She grabbed at the air with her hand and made a “take down” gesture.

Xie Qingying was amused by her and said in mock anger, “What nonsense are you talking about? I was impulsive just now. Young Master He gave me face and didn’t turn hostile in front of me.”

He Zhichu had been playing with his phone by the window in the living room the whole night. Who could get close to him?

“Tsk! That’s more than giving you face! If someone else had kissed him, he would have shot that audacious guy with a gun right now! That would be you…”

This bestie sized her up from head to toe and pursed her lips into a smile. “It’s obvious that Young Master He can’t bear to part with her…”

“Screw you!” Xie Qingying gave her a push and turned around to grab her handbag. She said goodbye to her host and bade her bestie farewell.

She drove her car on the empty highway. Her face was a little hot and her heart was burning.

Her bestie was sitting in the front passenger seat. Seeing her uneasy look.., she snorted and said, “Useless! Young Master He is now single again. He has no marriage, no girlfriend, and no wife and wife. You have liked him for so many years, why are you still hesitating? Hurry Up!”

Xie Qingying felt a little dry. She licked her lips and said shyly,”… how do you know?”

“Know what? You have a crush on him?” Her best friend made an “Unbearable”expression. “Miss, I am your best friend for twenty years since you were young! Others may not be able to tell, but I can!”

“Is it obvious?” Xie Qingying was nervous. “I don’t want to end up not being able to be friends.”

“No, no, no, it’s not obvious.” Her best friend smiled and comforted her. “I told you, only I can see it. How can others see it? Besides, even though you have a crush on him, you haven’t done anything. You haven’t even spoken to him.”

“… but he doesn’t seem to have a good impression of me.” Xie Qingying sighed and hit the steering wheel with her hand. “Today, I was out of my mind. No wonder people say that love makes people do crazy things.”

“A good impression can be cultivated.” Her best friend pointed at her in disappointment and said with a weird smile, “There are many kinds of feelings. If I can’t make him fall in love at first sight, I’ll make him fall in love with me after a long time!”

She said the word ‘love’ very loudly.

Xie Qingying:”…”

Her face turned red and her eyes flickered, but she did not reply.

Her best friend sneakily poked her arm and said meaningfully, “Really, ‘love’ for a long time is worth more than anything else. Even if we don’t fall in love in the end, we still enjoy it, don’t we?”

Then she reminded her, “Let me tell you, Young Master He is one of the best among the best. Besides his prominent family background, he is also handsome in person, and he is especially sexually attractive to women!”

“You better shut up!” Xie Qingying finally could not take it anymore. She rolled her eyes at her best friend. “If you like him so much, you can go ahead and have him yourself. How are you going to encourage me?”

“Oh, do you think I don’t want to? But I don’t like him…” Her best friend shrugged and said wickedly, “He is too out of my league. I will observe him from afar, but I support you to play with him!”

“Get lost! Or else, I’ll throw you out of the car!” Xie Qingying couldn’t listen anymore and her face turned red. “Even if we’re close, we’ll still fall out.”

Seeing that Xie Qingying was anxious, her best friend covered her mouth with her hand, she smiled and said, “Alright, alright. I was just joking. Don’t throw me out of the car. This is on the highway. Today is New Year’s Day. I don’t want to make the news on the New Year’s!”

Xie Qingying snorted. “It’s good that you know. Don’t say such things in the future. Or else, we really can’t be friends anymore.”

Her best friend became serious when she heard that and said, “Are you serious?”

Xie Qingying’s hand gripped the steering wheel tightly. The veins on the back of her hand were showing. She said distractedly, “I haven’t thought about it yet. Let me think about it again.”

“Yes, you have to think about it.” Her best friend sighed, “Although I’ve come up with a lot of bad ideas just now, I still have to warn you. It’s said that it’s impossible for a woman to chase a man, but in reality, men are more ruthless than women. If they don’t love you, they don’t love you. Even if they sleep with you, they will only treat you as a s*x partner. “When you meet a woman who truly loves you in the future, you will become cannon fodder.”

Xie Qingying’s heart sank and she said stubbornly, “Young Master He is not that kind of person. If he doesn’t love you, he will not sleep with you.”

“Mm, I hope so.” Her best friend shrugged and wisely stopped talking. She changed the topic and talked to Xie Qingying about this year’s big fashion show.

..

He Zhichu followed He Chengjian’s personal secretary, Old Zhou, back to the He family home. He first went to his room to take a shower.

Old Zhou went to He Chengjian’s study to report the situation.

He said with a smile, “General He, Young Master He is back.”

“Yes, where is he?” He Chengjian wore a pair of reading glasses and concentrated on reading the internal reference. “Did he have a good time last night?”

“He should have.” Old Zhou smiled mysteriously. “I happened to see a big piece of news when I went there today.”

“What big news?” He Chengjian raised his head and looked at Old Zhou from above his reading glasses. He laughed and said, “Old Zhou, stop keeping me in suspense!”

“Hahahaha… it’s not that I want to keep you in suspense…” Old Zhou said and looked left and right, then he moved closer to He Chengjian’s ear, gossip said, “I went to that house to look for Young Master He today, and I happened to see Young Master He kissing Xie Qingying, the niece of prime minister Xie Beichen…”
