Hello, Mr. Major General

The last time Gu Nianzhi spoke to Xie Qingying up close was at the Lu Corporation’s celebration party in H City.

She specifically asked her about Xie Ziyan.

Xie Qingying sat next to her and opened a small refrigerator by her feet. She bent down to take a look and asked, “Nianzhi, what would you like to drink? There’s juice, coffee, and tea.”

Gu Nianzhi wanted fruit juice.

Xie Qingying carefully poured it into a small paper cup and handed it to her.

Gu Nianzhi smiled and thanked her. She lowered her head to take a sip of the fruit juice and began chatting with her.

“Cousin Xie, is there a place in Xiangshan that is specifically for enjoying the snow?” Gu Nianzhi asked out of curiosity.

When she was in the other world, she had only gone to Xiangshan to see the red leaves and hadn’t had the chance to see the snow.

Xie Qingying smiled and said, “Xiangshan has a place called Xiangxuehai. It’s actually a plum garden, but in winter, the plum blossoms bloom, and with the heavy snow, it’s the best place to enjoy the snow.”

Gu Nianzhi imagined the scene Xie qingying had described – the plum blossoms blooming, covered in layers of crystal-clear snow.

The snow in the plum blossom was thirty percent white, but the snow was less fragrant than the plum blossom.

The white snow and red plum blossoms complemented each other. Just thinking about it was enough to make her drunk.

Gu Nianzhi smiled and teased, “Since it is such a nice place, you should go and collect the snow from the plum blossoms and put it in a blue and white porcelain jar. It’ll be nice to make some tea with that, in the summer.”

Xie Qingying was very surprised and said, “Nianzhi, I heard that you grew up abroad. I didn’t expect you to know so much about China’s traditional culture.”

Gu Nianzhi choked for a moment.

She didn’t grow up overseas?

She had grown up in China, from the other side…

Of course, she knew that she couldn’t tell outsiders about her experiences.

The only people who knew where she had been over the past few years were He Zhichu, Wen Shouyi, and Qin Yaoguang.

Everyone else has had their memories erased, including Qin Zhining.

Gu Nianzhi turned her attention to Qin Zhining and immediately connected to the helicopter’s special communication channel. She used her earpiece to ask He Zhichu, who was piloting the helicopter from the driver’s seat, “Young Master He, what is Qin Zhining doing now? Has he been released?”

The helicopter was very noisy, so it was easier to talk to the pilot through the special channel and when they speak, they usually keep words to the bare minimum.

He Zhichu was wearing a pair of stylish flying sunglasses. He was focused on the instrument data on the dashboard and noticed that there was someone talking on the helicopter’s special communication channel, so he picked up the call.

Hearing that it was Gu Nianzhi asking about Qin Zhining, he said casually into the microphone, “He’s still locked up. What’s wrong? You don’t want to pursue the matter anymore? If you don’t pursue the matter, he’ll be fine.”

Qin Zhining’s brother, Qin Zhiyuan, had begged him for a long time, but He Zhichu never gave in. He wholeheartedly wanted to leave the decision to Gu Nianzhi.

Gu Nianzhi did not know that Qin Zhiyuan had been begging He Zhichu, but she still nodded, she said, “It’s almost New Year. Let him come out for the New Year celebrations. There’s nothing wrong with him, actually. It’s just that his brain isn’t working properly. After locking him up for a while this time, he should have learnt to be obedient and not act rashly in the future.”

He Zhichu agreed and said, “Okay, when we reach Xiangxuehai later, I’ll call that place and ask his brother to pick him up.”

“Thank you, Young Master he,”Gu Nianzhi said sweetly, looking like she was in a good mood.

After saying this, she turned off the communication channel and couldn’t help taking another look at her phone.

Ever since the Far East Ace had left last night, she had secretly released the “King of Drama” from the blacklist.

Although she still did not want to answer his calls, she felt a sense of accomplishment when she saw his missed calls…

Xie Qingying stood beside Gu Nianzhi and took special care of her.

At this moment, she cut another plate of fruit and placed it in front of her. “I don’t know what kind of fruit you like, so I just cut some randomly. Try it, which one tastes good?”

Gu Nianzhi saw that the fruit plate was filled with common goods. She glanced over and saw that there were yellow oranges, snow-white bananas, pink and tender lychees, red heart fire dragon fruit, ivory mango, pineapple honey, green and translucent carambola, and mangosteen that looked like water chestnuts, there were also egg fruits that tasted like egg yolks.

She ate a slice of the orange first.

She had thought that it was an ordinary fruit, but after eating it, she realized that this orange was definitely not of an ordinary variety.

The taste was as sweet as honey, with a little sourness that perfectly neutralized the excessive sugar in the orange. It left a pleasant taste in her mouth.

Gu Nianzhi’s eyes suddenly lit up, and said, “This orange is special, right?”

Only special fruits had such quality…

Xie qingying raised her willowy eyebrows and said with a smile, “Huh? You also know about special offerings?”

Gu Nianzhi chuckled and shook her head. “I don’t know. I’m just a commoner. How would I know about the legendary special offerings?”

Xie Qingying understood that she was upset when she heard this. She quickly apologized, “Nianzhi, that’s not what I meant. You grew up overseas, so I thought there was no such thing as a special provision.”

Gu Nianzhi thought about it and felt that she was making a huge fuss out of nothing.

To be honest, she and Xie Qingying were not very close. Although they were relatively close relatives, but as the saying goes, distant relatives were not as good as close neighbors.

The two families had not interacted for so many years, and so she and Xie Qingying were just like strangers. It was better not to be too demanding.

Hence, she quickly smiled and said, “No, no, I’m just joking. Even if I’ve never seen a pig walk, I’ve eaten pork, right?”

She deliberately said “I’ve never eaten pork, but I’ve seen a pig walk” in reverse to ease the atmosphere.

Moreover, she was a child born in the internet era. She had indeed eaten pork before, but she had never seen a pig in the real world.

Xie Qingying covered her mouth and laughed even harder. “Nianzhi, you’re so funny!”

Once again, she felt that Gu Nianzhi was a wonderful person.

The distance between the two of them quickly closed.

Not long after, He Zhichu told them to get ready to get off the plane. They have arrived at Xiangxuehai.

He Zhichu parked the helicopter in an empty field 500 meters away from Xiangxuehai’s plum garden.

If they parked too close, it would affect the snow on the plum blossoms and ruin the snowy scenery.

After the plane had stopped, Gu Nianzhi held onto He Zhichu’s arm and got off the plane.

As soon as they got off the plane, she smelled a faint sweet scent. She couldn’t help taking a deep breath and smiled. “This is indeed a good place to enjoy the snowy scenery.”

He Zhichu settled her and turned around to reach out his hand to Xie Qingying.

Xie Qingying smiled and said, “I can get off by myself.” As she spoke, she had already alighted from the helicopter in a heroic manner.

Her red coat was like fire, and her black boots were seven centimeters tall. Her voluminous wavy hair draped over her back, and her red lips were burning with flames. Under the contrast of the snow on the plums, her beauty was unparalleled.

Gu Nianzhi was stunned by what she saw.

Xie qingying stood beside He Zhichu with a smile on her face. They looked like a perfect couple. Behind them was a spotless, silvery-white helicopter.

Just looking at this picture, it was like a giant advertisement image of a helicopter.

Gu Nianzhi couldn’t help but take out her phone and snap a few photos of them.

At this moment, a gust of wind blew past. Xie Qingying’s long, wavy hair fluttered in the wind. Just then, a strand of hair brushed past He Zhichu, giving off a natural fragrance.

He Zhichu lowered his eyebrows. His bright peach blossom eyes were hidden under his thick eyelashes. His handsome face was smiling as he looked at Xie Qingying.

Xie Qingying’s eyes were almost fixed on He Zhichu.

Gu Nianzhi finally understood.

So cousin Xie likes He Zhichu.

She looked at He Zhichu, then at Xie Qingying, and nodded in satisfaction.

From the looks of it, the two of them were a perfect match.

One was the prime minister’s niece, and the other was a military general major.

One was her cousin, and the other was her brother.

She gave them full marks, not afraid that they would be arrogant about it.

He Zhichu saw Gu Nianzhi holding up her phone to take a picture of them, but did not stop her. He strode over and said, “Come, let’s take a selfie.”

As he spoke, he took the phone from Gu Nianzhi and raised it high, aiming it at himself and Gu Nianzhi.

Gu Nianzhi was overjoyed.

From this angle, He Zhichu’s face was in front, while hers was at the back, making it look smaller.

It looked good in the photo.

He Zhichu mainly aimed at Gu Nianzhi and clicked on a few photos.

Then he took out his phone and used Air Drop to upload the photo to his phone.

Gu Nianzhi quickly said, “Let me see! Let me see!”

He Zhichu returned the phone to her and quickly strode away.

Gu Nianzhi looked at his back in confusion and then looked down at the selfie He Zhichu had just taken of the two of them.

Gu Nianzhi was furious.

Even though He Zhichu’s face was closer to the camera and her face was further away from the camera, her face still looked bigger!

He Zhichu’s face was thin, with pronounced facial features. No matter how one looked at it, his face would still appear smaller!

Moreover, because of the comparison with He Zhichu’s face in front of the camera, Gu Nianzhi’s face appeared even bigger in the back.

“Young Master He! Delete the photo! Take a new one!” Gu Nianzhi frowned as she put away her phone and quickly chased after him.

Xie Qingying watched Gu Nianzhi make a scene like a child. She laughed and shook her head as she walked slowly behind him.

She was wearing high-heeled boots, so she couldn’t run in the snow.

Gu Nianzhi caught up to He Zhichu and hopped around to ask him for his phone.

He Zhichu acted as if he didn’t hear her and strode forward with a smile on his face.

Sometimes he deliberately skated to the side and made a skating gesture. Gu Nianzhi almost fell over.

He Zhichu did not help her. Instead, he burst into laughter.

Under the blue sky, his smile was especially bright and clear in the white snow. It was like the snow on a plum blossom, with a hint of beauty in it.

Xie Qingying could not take her eyes off him and could not help running after him.

She had almost forgotten that running on this kind of ground with her seven-centimeter-high high heels was a disaster.

With a thump, she fell to the ground and twisted her ankle.

Gu Nianzhi heard the sound and turned to look. She quickly stopped He Zhichu. “Young Master He, cousin Xie fell.”

He Zhichu turned to look and saw Xie Qingying in red sitting on the black-colored mountain road that had just been swept out. The hem of her red cashmere coat was already covered in black soil, but she wasn’t too upset, she only smiled and said, “I think I sprained my foot. Young Master He, did you know that the Xiangxuehai is full of oil?”

He Zhichu walked back and knelt in front of her with one leg. He lifted her calf with one hand and touched her ankle with the other.

He could not feel it clearly through the leather boots, but Xie Qingying’s eyebrows were clearly furrowed. It was probably more painful.

Gu Nianzhi quickly said, “Young Master He, shall we help cousin Xie over?”

Xie Qingying struggled to get up and said sheepishly, “No need, it doesn’t hurt too much. I’ll be fine after some rest.”

She endured the pain in her ankle and tried to walk normally.

However, every step she took caused beads of sweat to form on her forehead.

She had no idea that her face was even paler than snow.

Gu Nianzhi poked He Zhichu’s arm and whispered, “Young Master He, cousin Xie is in a lot of pain… I think her ankle is twisted pretty badly…”

He Zhichu looked at her for a while and secretly clenched his fists. He then turned to Xie Qingying and said, “Come, I’ll carry you.”

His face was expressionless as he half-squatted in front of her and gave her his back.

Xie Qingying was at a loss. Happiness came too soon. She didn’t know how to deal with it.
