Hello, Mr. Major General
chapter-1239

Chapter 1239 If It Weren’t For You Huo Guanchen stared at the television screen that was broadcasting the viral video. His jaw dropped, and his eyes almost popped out of their sockets from shock.Standing next to the internationally renowned Russian president, Pushin was a man dressed in a neat and fitting major general’s uniform. It was his son, Huo Shaoheng, whom he had always been proud of!

And with a sweet smile and graceful mannerisms, the elegant woman standing on the other side of the president — could she be Gu Nianzhi? !

Huo Guanchen couldn’t help but blink and take a closer look. It was indeed Gu Nianzhi…

Could it be that he was seeing her in a different light after not seeing her for a while?

In his mind, Gu Nianzhi was still the same young girl who Huo Shaoheng had brought home during new years. She was eloquent, sharp-tongued, and pushy.

He really didn’t like this kind of woman. Furthermore, she had a questionable family background, so he had always been firmly opposed to his son getting involved with her.

He didn’t expect his son to not take him, his father, seriously. He directly proposed to her outside of home and even caused a ruckus over it.

He wanted to see how Huo Shaoheng would marry Gu Nianzhi if he, his father, didn’t agree to it!

Just as Huo Guanchen was secretly fuming with anger, the viral video that was being broadcast on television was already broadcasting President Pushin’s speech.

The Huaxia Empire’s television station used the simultaneous interpretation in Mandarin.

The president smiled and said, ” … I’m very happy to witness their engagement ceremony. I hope that if there’s a chance, I can also attend their wedding and be a witness to it.”

Boom!

President Pushin’s words were like a nuclear bomb hitting Huo Guanchen in the head.

Just a moment ago, he had vowed to teach Huo Shaoheng and Gu Nianzhi a lesson by not letting Gu Nianzhi marry into the family. Now, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and he was fuming with rage.

Huo Guanchen’s vision went dark, and his head felt a little dizzy. His entire body was swaying, and his legs could barely support his body.

He clung to the dining table and finally regained his balance. He panted heavily, and his chest felt like it was about to explode.

The dining room was unusually quiet.

Huo Guanchen finally remembered to turn and glance around. He realized that Huo Xuenong’s condition was worse than his.

Huo Xuenong was already over 70 years old, and his hair was white.

At this time, his eyes were fixated on the television. His face grew redder and redder, and gradually turned into the color of a pig’s liver.

His eyes were bloodshot, and one of his hands trembled mid-air. Finally, he slammed the dining table hard. “Nonsense! Such nonsense! This farce has gone international! Tell that brat to come back now! I’ll teach him a lesson!”

The corners of Huo Guanchen’s mouth twitched, and his eyes grew cold.

He put his hands behind his back and looked at Huo Xuenong. He asked again slowly, “Dad, what did you just say? I didn’t hear what you said just now. Can you say it again?”

Huo Xuenong was so embarrassed that he flew into a rage. He pointed at Huo Guanchen’s nose and scolded, “I said he was messing around! What’s wrong with that? Can’t I say so? ! Without the consent of the elders, I’ll see if he dares to marry that woman!”

“The Russian president will personally be a witness to their marriage. Father, do you think your words are still valid?” Huo Guanchen was so angry that he started laughing. “Besides, I’m not even objecting even though I’m his father. You’re already separated from him by a generation. Yet you intend to interfere with Shaoheng’s marital affairs?”

“How dare you disobey me! Youunfilial son! ” Huo Xuenong picked up the teacup on the dining table and threw it at Huo Guanchen.

Huo Guanchen quickly stepped aside, but the tea splashed all over him nonetheless.

“If my eldest son was still alive, you wouldn’t dare be so brazen! ” Huo Xuenong recalled his eldest son, Huo Guanyuan, who had died in the line of duty more than ten years ago when his body was torn into pieces, and tears streamed down his face, “You’ve never been as good as your big brother ever since you were young! Why weren’t you the one who died back then?!”

“Ah-ha, you’ve finally spoke your mind. Yes, I feel sorry too. Why wasn’t I the one who died back then?! ” Huo Guanchen’s eyes grew red.

If it was possible, he sincerely hoped that the person who had died back then was him, so that he wouldn’t have to endure the never ending feelings of anger, embarrassment, humiliation, and regret that had tormented him over the past decade.

Although his older brother had always been more capable than him, he had never been envious of his older brother. Instead, he admired and respected his older brother from the bottom of his heart. It wasn’t until later that he found out that all along, his older brother had been coveting his wife, the woman he loved the most.

This sort of humiliation was something that no man could tolerate.

Huo Guanchen and Huo Xuenong, father and son, were rubbing salt on each other’s wounds to attack each other. No one dared continue to watch TV anymore.

Luo Jialan turned a blind eye towards them and simply stared straight at the television screen.

At that moment, the camera on the television screen flashed and gave Gu Nianzhi’s engagement ring a huge high definition close-up!

The moon under the sun..

This was Luo Jialan’s immediate reaction.

Then she felt blood rush to her head. She stood up and covered her mouth with her hand in shock. Her facial features were distorted in a grimace.

She had seen the diamond on that ring before!

Even though she had only seen it once, it was when his grandmother was still alive. She had taken it out and showed it to Huo Shaoheng.

At that time, she had been standing at the door and peeking through the crack.

She had heard her grandmother say to Huo Shaoheng, “Shaoheng, grandmother will leave this stone to you. In the future, give it to your sweetheart, the wife who you truly want to spend the rest of your life with… ”

The diamond was so big and shiny that even after so many years, Luo Jialan could still remember every aspect of it clearly.

It was gentle and subtle, yet also dazzling. Anyone who had seen it would never be able to forget it!

She hadn’t expected the Huo family’s heirloom to fall into the hands of a woman like Gu Nianzhi.

This diamond belonged to her. Everything that Gu Nianzhi had was snatched away from her!

Luo Jialan’s face twitched. Her jealousy and hatred felt like a poisonous snake that was coiled in the bottom of her heart.

She and Gu Nianzhi really didn’t get along.

Luo Jialan gradually calmed down, and a vicious look flashed through her eyes.

If Gu Nianzhi didn’t exist in this world, how wonderful would her life be..

In that instant, Luo Jialan had the vague feeling that Gu Nianzhi shouldn’t even exist in this world.

It was all because of her!

She stole the man she had a crush on ever since she was a child, robbed her of status, and now she was going to steal her marriage.

How could such a shameless person exist in this world?

Why can’t she go die?

Luo Jialan tightly gripped the edge of the dining table with both hands so vigorously that it was as if she wanted to drive a hole in the firm rosewood dining table.

Deeper down, there was fear in her heart.

She knew that if she couldn’t marry Huo Shaoheng, she would be done for..

The trust fund that her grandmother had left for her father was originally in her hands, but Gu Nianzhi had already threatened to make her hand it in.

Also, she had only wanted to teach that mentally deranged Song Jinning a lesson. After all, her mother had died because of her, so what if she made her suffer a little?

Huo Shaoheng was known in the military as someone unbiased, but when it came to his own family’s domestic affairs, he couldn’t remain partial at all.

He was extremely biased because Song Jinning is his mother.

He didn’t even think about how because Song Jinning got between her father and mother, her mother had been depressed for more than a decade, and as their daughter, she knew this very well!

So what if she got a little revenge for her mother?

Why couldn’t Huo Shaoheng understand her?

If it hadn’t been for Song Jinning, her father, Huo Guanyuan, would have been married to his mother, Luo Xinxue, for real a long time ago. She wouldn’t have needed to rack her brain for ways to please Huo Xuenong, just to find support for herself.

She had thought about it for so long, and the only solution she had come up with was to marry Huo Shaoheng.

As long as she married Huo Shaoheng, all her problems would be solved.

She had worked hard for more than a year, and had finally convinced Huo Xuenong. When Huo Shaoheng had no choice but to get married, she would ask Huo Xuenong to convince Huo Guanchen, and the marriage certificate would be in her hands.

To her, everything else was fake, but a marriage certificate was real.

As long as she had the marriage certificate, she would be able to pull Huo Shaoheng from Gu Nianzhi’s grasp little by little.

She never thought that the goal she had worked so hard on for almost a year would be completely destroyed simply because Gu Nianzhi had become acquianted with the Russian president.

Her dreams were shattered into pieces. She knew that she would never be happy again..

But what was the use?

With Gu Nianzhi around, Huo Shaoheng never gave her a second glance.

In reality, she had long forgotten that even before Gu Nianzhi appeared, Huo Shaoheng had never given her a second glance.

The two of them had grown up in the same family, and Huo Shaoheng never treated her differently than how a brother treated a sister.

However, Luo Jialan had long known that she wasn’t huo Guanyuan’s biological daughter. That was why she had allowed herself to have a crush on Huo Shaoheng for so many years.

In the end, the man she had been lusting after for so many years had been snatched away by a young orphan who had appeared out of nowhere.

She was truly unbelievably shameless.

Luo Jialan cursed Gu Nianzhi inside. She clenched her fists and turned to leave the dining room.

Her good days would come to an end when Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng returned to their country.

She couldn’t wait any longer. She couldn’t wait a moment longer.

Whether it was the trust fund or the lawsuit for her “abuse” of Song Jinning, they were the last straw that broke the camel’s back.

She had no choice but to go all out or die fighting.

..

Luo Jialan wasn’t the only one who was shocked when Gu Nianzhi’s blinding diamond ring appeared on the television screen in the viral video broadcasted by Huaxia Empire’s television station.

He Zhichu was also so shocked that he practically pounced in front of the television. He stared at the diamond ring on Gu Nianzhi’s hand with a crazed look. He stroked the screen with his hand to feel the ring.

He had dreamed about it countless times in the middle of the night. He wondered what Gu Nianzhi would look like if she wore a ring inlaid with Grand Duke Joseph’s diamond…

The diamond belonged to her, and so did the ring.

He was so familiar with the appearance of the ring that he could describe every aspect of it.

He had thought that he would never see Gu Nianzhi wearing this ring in his lifetime.

He didn’t expect to actually see her wearing it.

Even though he didn’t personally put it on her.

He Zhichu clenched his fists and pressed them against his chest.

Deep down, he felt as if someone had stabbed him with a sharp knife.

The pain was so unbearable that he couldn’t breathe.

Convulsing, he fell to the ground.

Since the four years he had been there, this was the first time he had a seizure.

There was no one in the house, and no one could step into his house without his consent.

But so what if they could?

His life was a burden.

Unable to move, He Zhichu smiled bitterly as he laid on the cold floor stiffly.

Just as he was about to give up trying to save himself, his phone rang.

He Zhichu didn’t have the strength to swipe it open to answer the call.

However, he could tell that it was his father’s ringtone.

Echoing in the empty apartment, the ringtone played for a long time.

He Zhichu slowly closed his eyes.

At that moment, the phone that had been ringing for a long time without being picked up flashed a few times, and the camera on the phone turned on automatically.

The face of He Zhichu’s father, He Chengjian, appeared on the phone screen.

He shouted anxiously, “Zhichu? Zhichu? What’s the matter? Say something, where are you?!”

This number was an agreement between He Chengjian and He Zhichu.

No matter where he was, no matter what he was doing, as long as He Chengjian called this number, He Zhichu had to answer within five minutes, or it meant something bad had happened to him.

He Zhichu heard his father’s voice, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly. The last moment before he lost consciousness, he said, “Dad…”

Then his world turned completely dark as he slipped into a coma.
