Hello, Mr. Major General

Chapter 1307: Planting Mushrooms, Growing Mushrooms

Upon being teased, Gu Nianzhi wished she could find a hole to hide in.

But the more she hid, the more the people laughed at her.

They had all watched her grow up, so there was nothing wrong with a small joke.

But this time, Gu Nianzhi was really embarrassed and couldn’t take it anymore.

She was so angry that she turned around and shouted at the people who were laughing at her, “That’s enough! Stop laughing or I’ll kill myself!”

Everyone froze for a moment, but then they laughed even more heartily.

“Hahahaha! Have you ever heard of such a powerful threat?!”

“No, no! ”

“If we keep laughing, she’s going to kill herself… girl, you’re so impressive… Hahahaha, I’m so scared, Hahahaha… ”

A few of them even fell to the ground laughing, and roled around on the ground with their arms around their bellies.

Huo Shaoheng, who had always kept a straight face in front of his subordinates, also curled his lips.

However, upon seeing that Gu Nianzhi was extremely embarrassed and angry, he pressed her head against his chest with his hand and glanced at those people indifferently.

Wherever he looked, the laughter suddenly stopped.

All of them stood up straight in front of Huo Shaoheng and looked up at the sky with their faces tensed up.

With Gu Nianzhi in his arms, Huo Shaoheng stood up and said calmly, “You all have done a good job today. Disperse.”

“Yes, sr!”

Everyone answered in unison.

“All of you! Turn right! Run! Let’s go!”

Zhou Qiyuan commanded the temporary response team and ran out of Huo Shaoheng’s official residence.

The smoke in the kitchen gradually dissipated. The engineers came in with tools to renovate the kitchen, and started with renovation to the wiring.

The engineers were working on the construction next door.

Another team of engineers set up a temporary kitchen in an empty room next door.

Huo Shaoheng’s two orderlies, who were in charge of cooking, came in from the outside with grimaces. Bewildered by what had happened, they looked flabbergasted as they looked at the kitchen door.

“Comrade, what’s going on? We just went out to buy some vegetables…”

How come the kitchen was burned when they came back?!

They had heard the alarm sound outside the base just now. They thought that something had happened so they followed the procedure by laying down and hiding. They even hid a bag of live prawns in the pool behind the big rock.

When the alarm was lifted and they returned to the entrance of Huo Shaoheng’s official residence, they found out that something had happened to Huo Shaoheng’s official residence.

“Hahahaha, how can you two go grocery shopping together?” The military police and the engineer’s comrades were laughing at the two of them. “The culinary skills of the major general’s wife are comparable to that of an assassin. In the future, you must remember not to leave the kitchen at the same time. You must take shifts… Hahahahaha… ”

It took the two orderlies a while to grasp the entire situation!

The two of them rushed into the kitchen to take a look. They opened the refrigerator and found that the dumplings they had made a few days ago were a little less. Then, they looked at the “remains” on the gas stove and came to a complete understanding.

” … Miss Gu wanted to eat raw fried dumplings?”

“Most likely. Look at this burned pan.”

“Then, she added oil, added water, and turned on the fire… ”

” … It’s been burning out in the open without a lid. It must have been charred… ”

“In the end, the water vapor came out of the frying pan with oil in it. The gas stove was on an open flame. When the fire met the oil, the water vapor wasn’t enough… ”

“Then there would definitely be black smoke and the smoke alarm would sound… ”

The two orderlies finally understood.

They looked at the utensils in the kitchen and deduced what had happened. They could basically guess what had happened.

Coming out of the messy kitchen, the two orderlies returned to the makeshift kitchen. They used the leftover dumplings to make two plates of pan-fried dumplings and served them to Gu Nianzhi in a thermos bucket.

Gu Nianzhi was lying on the bed with her head covered with a blanket. No matter how Huo Shaoheng summoned her to come out, she wouldn’t come out.

“Nianzhi, they were just joking with you. They didn’t mean any harm.” Huo Shaoheng patted her across the blanket. “Be good. Get up and eat something.”

Gu Nianzhi knew that she must have been starving to think of cooking for herself.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have gone to the kitchen.

“I won’t eat! If you keep talking about it I’ll kill myself! ” Gu Nianzhi pounded the bed with her hands. She was in so much anguish that she wished she could die.

“How can just a few words make you want to kill yourself. Can you bear to part with me?” Huo Shaoheng simply carried Gu Nianzhi along with the blanket. “Hurry up and eat something. I’ll make you anything you want to eat. Or we can go out and eat. After that, we’ll go to the airport to pick someone up.”

Gu Nianzhi used her hand to fiddle with Huo Shaoheng’s windbreaker under his adam’s apple. She pouted so much that one could hang an oil bottle on her mouth.

She said angrily, “I’m not going! I’m not going anywhere. I’m staying here for the rest of my life! I’m going to become a mushroom. I’m going to be born here and grow here!”

“Yes, become a mushroom, and in the future, give birth to a small mushroom for me… ” Huo Shaoheng said. He couldn’t help but lower his head and kiss her pouting lips.

Her soft lips were as beautiful as he remembered them to be.

The kiss wasn’t enough, but she held it in her mouth and savored it longingly. Gu Nianzhi felt so wooed and ditzy that she almost fainted.

Fortunately, the orderly’s voice sounded from the door. Huo Shaoheng reluctantly let go of Gu Nianzhi.

“What’s the matter?” With a blank expression, Huo Shaoheng asked through the intercom.

“Reporting to the chief! We’ve made some pan-fried dumplings. Is Miss Gu hungry?” The orderly at the door scratched his head. “We’ve left them at the door. If you’re hungry, come out and get them.”

The two of them placed the thermos bucket containing the pan-fried dumplings at the door of Gu Nianzhi’s bedroom.

Not allowing him to open the door, Gu Nianzhi had been holding onto Huo Shaoheng the entire time.

Although she was indeed very hungry, compared to suffering embarassment in front of others, she resolutely decided to stay hungry!

However, the two orderlies were very observant. They had actually thought of such a trick…

Huo Shaoheng silently praised the two observant orderlies inside. He planned to give them a few more days off during the New Year.

Besides, he was planning to take Gu Nianzhi to the Xie family in France for the New Year this year.

“Alright, they’ve already left. I’ll bring the fried dumplings in.” Huo Shaoheng carried Gu Nianzhi along with the blanket and placed her on the sofa. “You should eat some. Your stomach doesn’t feel good when you’re hungry. Have you forgotten?”

Gu Nianzhi’s stomach was actually starting to hurt.

She didn’t stop him. She watched as Huo Shaoheng walked to the door and opened it. Afraid that someone would see her at the door, she quickly laid down on the soda.

After a while, she heard no other sounds coming from the door, so she carefully peeked out from behind the sofa to observe.

Huo Shaoheng turned to close the door with the food box in his hand. He looked up and saw a small black head swaying behind the sofa.

This little girl thought she had hidden her head well. If she had the ability, she should have hidden her head too…

Huo Shaoheng shook his head and walked to the back of the sofa then held Gu Nianzhi’s head. “Don’t hide anymore. I could see your head from afar.”

Gu Nianzhi saw that the door was closed, so she hugged the blanket as she sat up and narrowed her eyes to glance over.

However, her gaze had always been attracted to Huo Shaoheng in the past. Today, it was attracted to the food box in his hand.

Her burning gaze was fixated on the food box in Huo Shaoheng’s hand, and Gu Nianzhi felt even hungrier.

Huo Shaoheng didn’t tease her anymore.

He went to the cabinet in the living room and brought over a porcelain plate with a black base depicting epiphyllum. He placed the pan-fried dumplings on it and put a small silver fork on it. “Eat it, it’s your favorite crystal dumpling with shrimp filling.”

There were vegetarian three-dish dumplings with eggs, chives, and diced mushrooms.

There were also meat three-dish dumplings with eggs, chives, and pork, as well as eggs, diced mushrooms, and shrimp. Sometimes, there was even a little bit of Vermicelli.

Gu Nianzhi loved the three-dish dumplings with eggs, mushrooms, shrimp, and Vermicelli the most. This time, it was her favorite flavor, and she had a great time eating it.

After she finished eating, the feelings of frustration and embarrassment from before disappeared.

Indeed, food was the most important thing to people. Any kind of depression could be solved with a good meal.

Thinking back to what had happened just now, she giggled.

Huo Shaoheng stroked her head. “After you finish eating, go take a shower. I’ll take you to the airport to pick someone up.”

“Who is it? You, Major General Huo, have to pick them up personally? The head of state from abroad?” Gu Nianzhi asked him with a smile. “Can I not go?”

“No.” Huo Shaoheng denied. “It’s my great-uncle, my grandmother’s brother.”

Gu Nianzhi yelped and immediately went to the bathroom in her bedroom to take a shower.

It took her an hour and a half to clean up before she came out.

Huo Shaoheng looked at his watch. “Just in time. We’re leaving now.”

Gu Nianzhi was wearing the latest summer season Chanel ruffle skirt with a matching silk round collar and three-quarter sleeve Blouse. Her long hair was tucked behind her head and pinned to her head with a diamond headband.

Huo Shaoheng sized her up and nodded. “Let’s go.”

The two of them got into the car and sped towards Terminal 3 of the imperial capital’s international airport.

Grandfather Xie’s private plane would land at the airport in an hour.

He had come back quietly this time, and no one from any side had said a word.

Huo Shaoheng was the only one who knew he was back.

The two of them stood on the tarmac and watched as the cabin door of a large Boeing 787 opened. A spirited, elegant, and robust old man walked down the gangway.

Gu Nianzhi watchhed the old man’s every move and couldn’t help whispering to Huo Shaoheng, ” … Is he your great-uncle? He looks so imposing… like an emperor… ”

Huo Shaoheng: ” … “
