Hello, Mr. Major General

Chapter 2017: Chapter 2017: Hook, Bait, and salt (second more: guaranteed monthly ticket)

“You can hold your liquor well...”Huo Guanchen smiled and looked at the dishes on the table. They were all his favorite dishes,”... thank you for your hard work, Miss Guo.”

Guo Huining could hold her liquor well, but this time, she only drank a glass of red wine, and she felt a little dizzy. It was almost the same feeling as when she drank a Jin of white wine.

Could it really be that one would get drunk without getting drunk?

Guo huining thought as she watched Huo Guanchen pour another glass of red wine for her. In a deep voice, she said, “This glass is to thank Miss Guo for helping me take care of my father.”

Guo Huining was disrespectful and took a sip.

She originally didn’t want to finish it in one gulp, but Huo Guanchen sat beside her and looked at her. Under the light, there seemed to be fog in his eyes, making him seem even more unfathomable.

The way he looked down on her from above struck her heart.

All of her defenses and weapons had fallen apart. She just wanted to crawl under his feet, submit to him, and be conquered by him..

Guo Huining couldn’t stop drinking, but in the end, she finished the glass of red wine in one gulp.

Huo Guanchen raised his eyebrows. “Miss Guo’s alcohol tolerance is really good. Why don’t we have something stronger?”

Guo Huining couldn’t refuse him at all. She quickly nodded.

This was Huo Guanchen’s private house, but this bottle of red wine was not his, but Guo huining brought it in herself.

Huo Guanchen smiled, got up, and went to his own wine cellar to get a bottle of white wine and a bottle of red wine. He placed them on the dining table.

Guo huining rested her head on the dining table and looked at Huo Guanchen with a smile. Her eyes were no longer hiding her admiration and admiration for him.

“Come, drink my precious wine.”Huo Guanchen opened the bottle opener and opened the red wine.

Guo Huining looked at the two bottles of wine and suddenly widened her eyes.

“... Macallan 1928?”She pointed at the ordinary-looking bottle and was surprised. “This is top-notch whiskey!”

Huo Guanchen smiled and didn’t say anything. He picked up the whiskey bottle and poured half a glass for Guo Huining.

Then he picked up another bottle of red wine and poured the same glass for her.

Guo Huining looked at the bottle of red wine and was even more surprised. “Massandra Sherry? It’s from 1817? !”

This kind of sherry had long been priceless.

She could actually see it at Huo Guanchen’s place. Not only did she see it, but she was also lucky enough to taste it..

Guo Huining was also an expert in drinking, so she naturally knew that it was easier to get drunk when white wine and red wine were mixed together.

Now, although Huo Guanchen did not have any other intentions, he had mixed these two types of wine together for her to drink. wasn’t that just to get her drunk?

Actually, there was no need to do that. She was already drunk.

Her eyes looked at Huo Guanchen with even more confusion, and Guo Huining became even bolder.

She got up and walked to the door. She turned off the lights in the dining room, took out a lighter, and lit the candlesticks that she had prepared earlier.

The light from the snow-white candles flickered, and the dining room suddenly had an ambiguous atmosphere.

After returning to her seat, Guo Huining picked up her wine glass. She looked at Huo Guanchen lovingly as she sipped her wine.

Two red lipstick stains were left on the wine glass. It was particularly tempting under the candlelight.

Huo Guanchen was also holding a tall crystal glass. He did not drink. He leaned against the high-back chair and looked at her with a smile.

He did not speak or move. However, the way he held the tall Crystal Cup and looked at her made Guo Huining feel hot for no reason.

She took another sip of wine and slowly leaned over, getting closer and closer to Huo Guanchen.

Huo Guanchen still did not move. He did not step back or Dodge. However, he did not advance nor did he cater to her.

Guo Huining’s face was very hot. Her heart was beating like a drum, but she could not stop.

She wanted to get closer, closer, and closer, but in the end, she stopped five centimeters away from Huo Guanchen’s handsome face.

She looked at him with fascination. She was so close to him that she could even feel his shallow breathing, as if it was on her face..

“... Miss Guo, are you drunk?”Huo Guanchen asked calmly.

“No.”Guo huining shook her head subconsciously. “General Huo, you don’t have to be so polite. You can call me huining.”

Huo Guanchen smiled and turned his back to the candlelight. His face was hidden in the half-dark candlelight and could not be seen clearly, but Guo Huining felt that he was waiting for her to go over.

However, when she wanted to get closer, Huo Guanchen put down his wine glass and just happened to brush past her.

The courage that Guo Huining had just mustered vanished into thin air.

She rubbed her temples and said in distress,”... I think I’m a little drunk.”

Huo Guanchen tilted his head to look at her and suddenly asked, “Miss Guo, is Dr. Tony an acquaintance of yours?”

Guo Huining was currently in a daze and lost her focus. Naturally, she would answer whatever Huo Guanchen asked.

She immediately shook her head. “No, I don’t know him.”

“Then how do you know him?”

“I don’t know him. My friend knows him. She said that doctor Tony is very powerful.”

“Your friend? is that Dou Aiyan?”

“Yes, General Huo, you know her too, right? I heard from her that her sister has almost become your daughter-in-law...”Guo Huining said in a trance. She felt her head getting heavier.

Huo Guanchen was noncommittal. His fingers tapped lightly on the dining table, and the quiet dining room made a clicking sound.

Guo Huining felt that something was wrong, but she was distracted by the clicking sound, as if she couldn’t think on her own.

She looked at Huo Guanchen in a daze. She wanted to express her feelings, but Huo Guanchen always cut her off perfectly.

“... Prime Minister Dou’s daughter? When did she meet Dr. Tony?”Huo Guanchen asked with a smile.

“... I heard from her that she met him when she was abroad.”

“You believe that?”

“I don’t believe it.”Guo Huining had the desire to confide. “She hid a lot of things from me and thought I didn’t know. But I’m not a fool, how could I not know?”

“Such as?”Huo Guanchen narrowed his eyes.

“For example, she didn’t do well abroad, but her luck suddenly changed. Not only did she have a lot of money that she couldn’t spend, but she could also get in touch with a lot of people that she usually couldn’t reach.”

Guo Huining kept talking, “Such as doctor Tony, such a good doctor, and his background is not an ordinary person. “Even if her father is the prime minister, she might not be able to hire someone to perform the surgery, let alone a former prime minister and the daughter of a former prime minister who is in prison. Who would buy her story?”

“There must be someone helping her behind the scenes.”

Huo Guanchen thought that he had finally hit the nail on the head.

From the moment Guo Huining recommended doctor Tony to operate on grandfather Huo, they had been investigating Guo Huining and doctor Tony’s relationship and origins.

However, although they were clear about doctor Tony’s origins, the distance between Guo Huining and doctor Tony was thousands of miles. There were some important parts that could not be investigated.

Later, when they were investigating Dou aiyan, they found out that Dou aiyan had filled in some of the gaps.

However, it was still wrong.

They decided to expand the scale and continue the investigation. However, the other party was also very cunning. She seemed to have noticed that something was wrong and retreated.

In order to not alert the enemy, the easiest and most convenient way was to start from Guo Huining’s side.

If this woman wasn’t particularly stupid, she would have already noticed that there was something wrong with Dou aiyan.

And how could a top student of B University’s Law Department be a Fool?

Since those people used guo huining as bait, Huo Guanchen didn’t mind being a big fish that could pull the fisherman into the water.

“... then who do you think is helping her?”
