Ever since Huo Shaoheng saved her when she was 12, Gu Nianzhi had been growing up in the Special Forces headquarters alongside him—she’d never had any interactions with the world outside
In the beginning, her lessons had been conducted by tutors ere engaged by the Special Forces Eventually, the tutors had found her to be extreenius—which had caused them to put in even more effort to teach her
After only two years, she took the University entrance exarade, which had allowed her to enter any majors in any university she wanted The ar that time They did not want her to appear in public Therefore, she had not left the headquarters to attend university but had attended online lessons frouished universities for two years
That had been the case until about two to three years ago when Huo Shaoheng and his men could not discover where she’d come from no matter how they tried Therefore, they intended to let her interact with society to see if there would be any changes That was the reason why she had been allowed to attend a university Also, if so for her, it would be easier for them
Because the Special Forces of the Hua Xia Empire was so well protected—and because she was at Huo Shaoheng’s side—information was even harder to uncover Heck, it was practically impossible for infors would be different the moment Gu Nianzhi went out to attend university It was si out of a well-protected “castle” and returning to society, somewhere where she was able to interact with others In order to re, Gu Nianzhi had selected a university in C City This way, she would be able to remain by his side
This had happened until six ed to becoraduate student She had to leave C City and head to Di Capital
Thankfully, the Special Forces had decided to shi+ft their headquarters to Di Capital at that ti and Gu Nianzhi would really have had to be separated fro attention to He Zhichu’s reaction after she was done narrating her life as far as she could re, He Zhichu batted his lashes a little, cleared his throat, and said clearly and coldly, like so water, “If I told you that there was a bias involved, would you believe me?”
He still looked expressionless Even his tone sounded monotonous He reached for his coffee but did not take a sip He wasto the sound it produced
The moment Gu Nianzhi heard that, she fell silent and did not probe further
It had taken her so e the relationshi+p between her and He Zhichu back to that of professor and student She didn’t want to ruin it and ain
“Oh? So it’s like that? I see It’s just all about tie the topic, and it indicated that she did not wish to pursue it further
He Zhichu breathed a sigh of relief…
Gu Nianzhi’s question had been too sharp He Zhichu hadn’t kno to answer her at that point of time All he could do was reveal a partial truth If she illing to listen on, he’d seize the opportunity
A pity she did not wish to listen on, but it’s okay He’d just keep it to hi as she doesn’t harp on the reason anyood that you understand Oh, by the way, did you ed behind on due to your absence for that past few days?”
Gu Nianzhi frowned at the ive me an extension, please?”
He Zhichu looked at her silently His eyes spoke of nothing but coldness
“Two days? One day?” Gu Nianzhi bargained, not wanting to give up so easily
He Zhichu finally nodded “One day I’ll give you an extra day to co your duties asassistant at the same time”
“That’s too much! Would I even have the time to sleep, then?!” Gu Nianzhi al assistant, as the re to see the figures of her bank account increasing eachassistant; I’ll look for others” He Zhichu was bent on Gu Nianzhi not giving up the job, so he decided to be passive-aggressive
Indeed, Gu Nianzhi reacted as he’d expected She said sternly, “Professor He, please calm down I’ll definitely co assistant well”
“Okay I look forward to your performance” He Zhichu finished the instant coffee
It tasted horrible, indeed
He Zhichu placed the cup back on the coffee table with a look of disgust
Gu Nianzhi soodbye “I’ll , He Zhichu felt vibrations from his phone It was Gu Yanran He rejected the call and turned to Gu Nianzhi “Quickly go back and con assistant I’ll check tomorrow”
He Zhichu picked up Gu Yanran’s call only after Gu Nianzhi had left
“Mr He, you were trying to confirm Gu Nianzhi’s identity when you called me to ask for Nianzhi and , weren’t you?” Gu Yanran asked directly, not beating about the bush
