Chapter 316 - Forced To Stop (2/2)
“Oh? So it’s true” Xu Piaohong exhaled sharply and said, “I-I ht have made a mistake today” She nearly burst into tears
“What is it? Don’t be scared, Piaohong Tell me slowly” Deputy Chief of Staff Xu instantly felt distressed for his daughter “What’s the big deal anyway? I’ll sort it out for you!” It was just a ht? Just one phone call and he’d have the director of the station coifts
Xu Piaohong’s eyes widened when she heard her dad say this She looked down to adjust her unifor is, I was on duty today and stopped a car on the Third Ring Road Huo… Shaoheng was in it” The naue and it took forever for her to spit out Just saying it once left a sweetness in her mouth
Deputy Chief of Staff Xu ju the door shut He whispered, “Did you really stop Major General Huo’s military vehicle?!”
Obstruction of military affairs was a serious offense! Sweat beaded on Deputy Chief of Staff Xu’s forehead
“No, it wasn’t abit her lower lip, her eyes glazed over as she tried to use the police database to find the license plate on the Mercedes SUV “It’s… It’s his personal car”
Xu sighed deeply and wiped the sweat off his forehead “Thank goodness he wasn’t on duty Thank goodness”
“Will I be in trouble?” Xu Piaohong asked nervously “He was in the car with a young girl”
“Well, that depends on what law he broke” Deputy Chief of Staff Xu eased his breathing “Even the Major General has to be punished when he violates the laws!”
Deputy Chief of Staff Xu grew cheerful when he thought he could do Mr Huo a favour It was too difficult to to forhter’s chance encounter was an opportunity
However, Xu Piaohong muttered, to his surprise, “Dad, He… He didn’t break any laws”
“What?!” Deputy Chief of Staff Xu felt his blood pressure rise again and had trouble standing still He leaned against the wall of the study and then sat on the couch, panting He asked her through gritted teeth, “Why did you stop him if he hadn’t broken any laws?!” His head spun “Who was on duty with you today?” If it becaed officer on duty with his daughter today Deputy Chief of Staff Xu sighed: his daughter was great at everything, but she was too cocky She didn’t even have a basic understanding of social relationshi+ps, so he believed that she needed to get etting into serious trouble
Xu Piaohong felt evenwith me I was on duty alone”
“Alone?!” Deputy Chief of Staff Xu was duht! You’re just a trainee You can’t be on duty alone!”
“I-I just wanted to help everyone out!” Xu Piaohong noticed so and her eyes turned red with unshed tears “My colleague were rushi+ng home for Lunar New Year, so I wanted to help” She had never expected such a thing to happen She was felt anxious but also lucky that she’d had the chance tohad always been respectable and thought highly of herself Although she knew her dad was powerful, she had never wanted to take advantage of her family’s influence for her own benefit—unlike the other power hungry children of elites in society That hy she had chosen an entry-level police job
Deputy Chief of Staff Xu could tell his daughter was about to cry He frowned for a long tiue derelicted duty?”
“No…” Xu Piaohong’s voice had grown even quieter “There was no duty today I just wanted to get to know the work environment and take a drive”
Deputy Chief of Staff Xu finally understood that the incident was due entirely to his daughter’s arrogance He struggled to turn over on the sofa and undid the heavy wool military unifor when you stopped him?”
“No, he just said he had some important business to attend to and drove away Then his personal secretary, Lieutenant Colonel Yin shi+xiong, ca? I think I know him” Deputy Chief of Staff Xu was relieved to finally hear a familiar name “Fine, hurry up and come home I’ll find a way to h they weren’t in the same department, they should still be able to have a conversation Deputy Chief of Staff Xu i’s number and finally connected to hi saw that Xu Piaohong’s father was calling personally and didn’t want to give hihter was just a child who didn’t understand proper protocol yet, and it was nothing serious, so he had given her a little scare as a lesson Yin shi+xiong was polite to Deputy Chief of Staff Xu “That’s too kind of Deputy Chief of Staff Xu It’s wonderful that your daughter illing to work in an entry-level job It’s ok if sheas it’s not serious Our Chief went out today to buy so your daughter trouble”
Deputy Chief of Staff Xu was finally relieved, but was also surprised that Huo Shaoheng had been buying holiday goods “The Huo manor didn’t make preparations? Isn’t that the orderlies’ jobs? Why does the Chief have to personally do it?” Deputy Chief of Staff Xu knew that the Huo fah he wasn’t’ fa, he had crossed paths with Grandfather Huo and Huo Guanchen
Yin shi+xiong parked in the lot of the Chengnan Shopping Center as he spoke to Deputy Chief of Staff Xu over the headset “Our Chief’s new official residence just co New Year’s there He won’t be going hoo now, since I still have some business I wish Deputy Chief of Staff Xu an early Happy New Year!”
“Oh, I won’t keep you any longer I also wish you, and the Chief, a Happy New Year!” Before Deputy Chief of Staff Xu could finish the sentence, the line had been cut Deputy Chief of Staff Xu thought about it and called Xu Piaohong again, saying, “Piaohong, co to ask you”
…
Huo Shaoheng and Gu Nianzhi were already walking around Chengnan Shopping Center It was a massive place and was basically a whole street lined with shops on both sides There were barricades on either end so cars could not drive through, allowing only pedestrians to walk inside it It was already Lunar New Year’s Eve, but there were still h the stores to buy holiday goods
Gu Nianzhi had never been there before, so she looked around and tried to search for stores on her phone Huo Shaoheng was not in a hurry He waited quietly at her side: he would take her wherever she wanted to go
