Reborn As Super Heiress

Chapter 1038: Chapter 1034: Report to the Commander

Seeing these people suddenly appear, two colonels and a bunch of lieutenant colonels and majors, all military officers, scared Liu Cheng silly. He huddled in the corner of the wall, not daring to breathe.

Not only Liu Cheng, even Huo Sining was dumbfounded.

She was just dozing off in the Maybach when she was awoken by a deafening rumble. She looked out the car window and was scared stiff as an armored vehicle drove in, surrounding her small warehouse yard.

Huo Sining was a bit stunned. She pushed open the car door and walked out. The two colonels who had run over saw Huo Sining and immediately stood straight, saluted her, and shouted loudly, ”Report, Chief! The 49th Mechanized Division of the 27th Army Group is assembled. Please give instructions!”

Huo Sining: ”...”

What is going on? Huo Sining, with a dizzy head, tried to unravel the possible situation from her remaining clarity.

”Um, are you sent by Chief Lu?” Huo Sining asked awkwardly.

The two colonels immediately shouted, ”Yes, the chief instructed us that the matter is of great importance. We were ordered to maintain order and follow your command and dispatch!”

Huo Sining’s mouth twitched: ”Uh-hahaha.”

Chief Lu, did you make a mistake? Bringing so many people in such a grand manner, are you trying to let everyone know? If you wanted to help, you could have secretly transported the stuff to the Forbidden City with a few trucks, couldn’t you?

Standing stiffly there, unsure of what to say, Huo Sining saw Huang Zhenlong bringing several experts over in a car. The elderly experts also seemed a bit confused by the spectacle.

”Mr. Huang, you’re finally here. What’s going on here?”

Upon seeing Huang Zhenlong, Huo Sining felt like seeing a savior and immediately greeted him, pointing with both laughter and tears at the uniformed soldiers.

Huang Zhenlong regained his composure, looked at Huo Sining’s shocked expression, and couldn’t help but chuckle, ”This is arranged by the chief. Don’t worry, they’re just here for a military exercise.”

Upon hearing this, Huo Sining was stunned but quickly understood. Chief Lu was using the military exercise as a cover. After all, it’s hard to transport so many things to the Forbidden City without attracting attention. Those curious media could investigate and possibly link this to the National Museum theft case, so Chief Lu pulled this stunt to confuse them.

But this excuse seems a bit too fake. An entire division doing a military exercise in the suburbs, anyone with a bit of knowledge would sense something wrong.

Nevertheless, Huo Sining understood that anything involving the military, whether self-deception or a cover-up, the media might suspect but definitely wouldn’t dare to pursue it. So Chief Lu sending these people was undoubtedly well-intentioned and surely not for a bad cause.

”Stop the nonsense; did you bring the items back? Were there any losses? Were there any damages during transport?”

Huang Zhenlong’s eyes were full of urgency. At this moment, he wasn’t concerned about the soldiers idly standing by but cared only about the treasures Huo Sining had brought back.

”No, my senior’s people left just before you arrived. I’ve been here guarding the whole time, so there shouldn’t be any problems. The items are over at the warehouse; you can bring the experts and follow me.”

With that, Huo Sining led Huang Zhenlong and others to the warehouse, took out a key, and unlocked the warehouse door. After letting them in, she quickly closed the door.

Those two colonels were thus ignored by Huo Sining, yet they didn’t show any displeasure on their faces. They stood like sculptures in the cold wind, unmoving, along with dozens of officers behind them.

Liu Cheng, seeing this from the corner, felt his heart pounding violently, his blood boiling with excitement unable to hide his inner joy.

Damn, did I just witness a huge piece of news?

What exactly does that woman have stored in that warehouse that would summon the military?

Moreover, seeing how those colonels respectfully treated that young girl, the matter definitely isn’t simple!

The sudden appearance of the military under the guise of a military exercise made Liu Cheng faintly feel something intriguing, suspecting that there must be a deep insider story here.

Thinking of this, Liu Cheng was immediately filled with excitement. He subconsciously reached for his pocket, shakily took out his phone, secretly opened the camera function, and began filming the warehouse yard stealthily.

Meanwhile, Huo Sining, leading Huang Zhenlong and others into the warehouse, turned on the incandescent lights. Under the dim light, Huang Zhenlong immediately saw six or seven large containers inside. Huo Sining unlocked the containers one by one and opened the doors. Seeing the items inside, Huang Zhenlong couldn’t help but tremble.

Along with Huang Zhenlong, the other elderly experts also shared the same state. Seeing these items categorized within the containers, each of them exclaimed in awe, unable to control their overwhelming emotions, each moved to tears, unable to remain calm.

Huo Sining stood quietly aside, allowing the experts to touch the artifacts, venting their repressed emotions.

”Scroll of Turmoil, Yongle Encyclopedia, Red and White Hibiscus Picture... any of these are national treasures. This time, no one can say that the splendid treasury of Huaxia’s civilization is hidden in Dongyang!”

”When we apprenticed back then, traveling with our masters, we never saw so many good things. Seeing these treasures, we can only imagine how much the Dongyang Expeditionary Force plundered and destroyed in Huaxia Country back then!”

”Indeed, all these years taking students to visit Dongyang, only able to look through the glass showcases in the museums. Even taking a photo had to be done stealthily. This feeling, it’s truly stifling and humbling!”

”Never thought, living most of my life, with half a foot in the grave, I would witness the day these artifacts returned to Huaxia Country!”

”So many years of hoping, finally waited for this moment. Mr. Huang, I’m truly satisfied with my life now. Even if I were to die, I would die without regret!”
