Hello, Mr. Major General

Wen Shouyi’s eyelids twitched heavily as she became more and more fearful of He Chengjian.

She was still planning to make use of the Qin Corporation’s influence to sue He Chengjian for abusing his power and for coercing others to make confessions after this matter was over.

Even if she could not bring him down, she could still drag this matter out in court for a period of time to wear down his prestige and let his political enemies discover his weakness. It would be enough to make him suffer.

However, she didn’t expect He Chengjian to actually want them to sign a voluntary agreement before sending them to the simulated hospital ward.

Wen Shouyi was very clear that this was actually a disclaimer agreement.

Many rich and powerful people had to sign a prenuptial agreement before they got married. It was a way for them to protect themselves.

As long as this so-called “voluntary agreement” was signed, Wen Shouyi would find it challenging to make things difficult for He Chengjian legally.

This was because she had to prove that this “voluntary agreement” was invalid before she could sue He Chengjian for abusing his power.

One case had become two cases, so the difficulty was redoubled.

…

Gu Nianzhi was also surprised.

He Chengjian was still thinking of asking the Qin family to sign such a voluntary agreement at this time. It was obvious that he had been prepared and knew the Qin family very well. That was why he had been so careful to block every possibility that they could turn the tables.

Gu Nianzhi only needed to look at Wen Shouyi’s expression to know that He Chengjian had indeed played tricks well.

As the husband of the famous lawyer Ms Qin, his legal knowledge was really quite strong.

Gu Nianzhi laughed mockingly.

Only Huo Shaoheng remained out of the picture. His eyes, as dark as the night sky, looked quietly at them in the room.

Xie Qingying pursed her lips and said in a low voice, “I’ll sign it.”

He Chengjian couldn’t bear it, but when he thought of his son, his heart hardened again.

He waved his hand behind him. “Bring the agreement up. Also, send one to Qin Baye to sign.”

He Chengjian’s personal secretary silently handed over two voluntary agreements. One was placed in front of Xie Qingying and the other in front of Wen Shouyi, along with two pens. He gestured to them, indicating that they should sign the agreements, and left.

He took the third agreement and went to the place where Qin Baye was being held.

Old Master Qin had just opened his eyes and was lying on the hospital bed, staring at the ceiling in a daze.

He Chengjian’s personal secretary walked in and said evenly, “Old Master Qin, this is a voluntary agreement. Please sign it.”

“Voluntary agreement? What voluntary agreement?” Old Master Qin sat up and said in surprise, “I was just asking them where this place is, but none of them answered me.”

He Chengjian’s personal secretary smiled and said, “You’re at the military headquarters, but Mr. Qin, don’t panic. Our young master was injured by a infrasonic weapon in your hospital ward. Your daughter, Qin Yaoguang, wants to experiment with the treatment method, so you have to enter the simulated ward with Wen Shouyi. You also have to endure the infrasonic weapon for 24 hours.”

“What?!” Old Master Qin cried out involuntarily. “Young master was injured by an infrasonic weapon?! How could this be?! There’s an infrasonic weapon in our ward? Why didn’t I know about it?!”

He Chengjian’s personal secretary thought to himself, “If I didn’t know that your oxygen mask could even protect you against nuclear bombs, I would have really been fooled by your acting skills..”

However, the personal secretary didn’t say anything of that sort, but merely smiled and told Old Master Qin, “We just found it. It’s in the CT Room of your hospital. In order to let Young Master He get better as soon as possible, please cooperate with us to help with the treatment.”

Old Master Qin’s expression changed instantly. He wiped his tears with his hand and said shakily, “I understand. You don’t have to say anymore. No matter who the mastermind is, Major General He was injured in our hospital. He was also injured because of me. It is completely reasonable that I will help Young Master He with his treatment. Being on the receiving end of the infrasound weapons 24 hours a day in the simulated ward is nothing, and even if you want to take my life, I’ll have no complaints! Bring me the agreement. I’ll sign it!”

He Chengjian’s personal secretary almost thought he had wronged Old Master Qin.

When he took out the voluntary agreement, he felt almost ashamed, as though he were bullying others.

But as he walked out of Old Master Qin’s ward with the agreement in hand, He Chengjian’s personal secretary seemed like he was suddenly jolted awake.

The old man was so good that he’d nearly been fooled.

…

After the three voluntary agreements were signed and filed, Qin Baye, Wen Shouyi, and Xie Qingying were all sent to the newly constructed ward. The two subsonic emitters were placed in the secret rooms on both sides of the ward and aimed in the direction of the ward.

They were to stay in the ward for twenty-four hours before coming out to receive treatment.

According to the agreed-upon method, Qin Yaoguang would be in charge of Qin Baye and Wen Shouyi, and Gu Nianzhi would be in charge of Xie Qingying.

Qin Yaoguang asked for a room to rest and prepare for the surgery which was to take place after twenty-four hours.

Gu Nianzhi wasn’t idle either.

She collected information from the suite in the He Residence and memorized the method Lu Jin had given her. She hacked into the system of the CIA and the Soviet KGB and downloaded their methods for treating those attacked with infrasonic weapons. Gu Nianzhi summarized the plans Lu Jin had given her one by one and finally came up with a decent plan.

Th treatment blueprint was still based on Lu Jin’s framework, but Gu Nianzhi added in some details about the methods of the CIA and the KGB. She then sent it to Lu Jin to see if it was feasible.

Lu Jin received Gu Nianzhi’s email and read it carefully. He praised her greatly.

“Good idea! It’s even better than my method!”

“If you do this, there won’t be any side effects. It won’t even harm your body.”

“He Zhichu will recover very quickly.”

“I’m proud of you!”

Gu Nianzhi looked at Lu Jin’s message and pursed her lips speechlessly.

What did he mean?

Could it be that Lu Jin’s previous method would still cause harm to He Zhichu?

Gu Nianzhi used the encryption software to chat with Lu Jin online and asked him about this idea.

Lu Jin giggled and replied: [I was too anxious at the time. The method was a little simple and crude, but it worked, it worked… ha-ha-ha-ha…]

Looking at Lu Jin’s continuous laughter on the chat, Gu Nianzhi felt as if she could see his guilty conscience.

She was angry and amused, and she did not scold Lu Jin.

Time was indeed very tight then, and it was indeed difficult for him to come up with a perfect plan in such a short time.

Lu Jin had said that their goal was to save He Zhichu first, so it was understandable that he had used some extreme methods.

Gu Nianzhi’s revised plan could be said to have made up for the deficiencies in Lu Jin’s plan. It was a textbook-like standard procedure for treating infrasonic weapon injuries.

[Dad, please give me a clear answer. To be honest, is this plan really feasible? I can’t risk their lives. I don’t like to see Dad’s indifferent attitude toward these matters.]

Gu Nianzhi replied to Lu Jin word by word.

Lu Jin looked at it and was very ashamed. He quickly replied: [This plan is really perfect. It’s even better than mine. I swear, I’ve studied it carefully several times.]

Gu Nianzhi curled her lips and replied: [That’s good. Actually, the structure of this plan is still your method of treatment. I just used other people’s methods to improve it.]

After receiving a positive response from Lu Jin, Gu Nianzhi printed out the plan and went to look for He Chengjian.

He Chengjian met her in the small meeting room.

“Nianzhi, what is it you want to see me about?” He Chengjian held an amber pipe in his hand and asked kindly.

Gu Nianzhi could smell the thick smoke from He Chengjian’s body.

It was obvious that he hadn’t slept at all and had been worried about He Zhichu.

Gu Nianzhi’s heart softened again.

She said, “In devising this treatment plan, I did refer to the KGB and CIA’s past treatment methods. It’s definitely not some random plan derived from dubious resources”

He Chengjian saw that she was still brooding over the words “dubious resources”. He smiled. The wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were deeply sunken in, making the ends of his eyes look even longer.

He Zhichu’s eyes, shaped like peach blossoms, were exactly the same as He Chengjian’s.

“I know. I’ll be counting on you tomorrow.” He Chengjian told her the truth. “Nianzhi, it’s not that I don’t believe you, but I can’t let my son suffer in vain.”

“Everyone who dares to hurt him will experience the same or more pain.” He Chengjian put the amber pipe into the ashtray on the conference table and tapped it lightly twice before lowering his eyes.

Gu Nianzhi finally understood. This person’s acting skills were almost on par with Huo Shaoheng’s.

She had thought yesterday that he really did not believe in her treatment method…

That ruthless and unreasonable look had probably become a psychological trauma for Wen Shouyi and Qin Yaoguang.

“I only hope that Miss Xie will be fine.” Gu Nianzhi closed her eyes. “Did you send someone to monitor the situation in the ward?”

“Yes, don’t worry. Xie qingying is fine.”He Chengjian lowered his head and chuckled. “I gave her Qin Yaoguang’s surgical gown, surgical cap, and mask.”

The surgical gown had a vacuum barrier in it. Once worn, it would be impossible for infrasonic weapons to harm the wearer.

“Ah? Really?!” Gu Nianzhi’s eyes widened, and her mood brightened. “That’s great!”

But after the excitement, Gu Nianzhi was confused again. “Then who should I practice with?”

“Wen Shouyi, of course.” He Chengjian put the amber pipe in his mouth disapprovingly. “I said Wen Shouyi. It’s Wen Shouyi.”

“But yesterday, Qin Yaoguang didn’t agree and said it was about age…” Gu Nianzhi said hesitantly.

She had never dealt with someone like He Chengjian before.

He was cruel and merciless, but he seemed to have a bottom line.

But he was definitely not a kind person.

Gu Nianzhi was certain of this.

But as long as Xie Qingying didn’t suffer that kind of harm, it was fine.

If she really suffered for He Zhichu’s sake, Gu Nianzhi didn’t think He Zhichu would necessarily be happy.

He Chengjian said lightly, “Because of the age issue, Qin Yaoguang can treat her father, Qin Baye, properly. When the 24 hours are up, you can give Wen Shouyi a test of your treatment method. As for Xie Qingying, she’ll be in the other room and will fall into a deep sleep. She won’t come out until Ah Chu wakes up.”

Gu Nianzhi sat up straight and smiled. “Thank you for believing in me, General He. I won’t let you down.”

He Chengjian gave her a serious look. “I hope you won’t tell Xie Qingying.”

He was trying to make it seem that Xie Qingying was the one who saved everyone else.

Gu Nianzhi was silent for a few seconds before nodding. “Okay, I won’t say it.”
