Chapter 529: He Wouldn’t Be Able to Wait a Few Years
“Tsk, tsk, tsk, Qingjiu is as good as announcing your existence now. Happy?”
Upon hearing this, He Niancheng looked up at him with a cold gaze.
Suddenly, he flung something at Huo Yingcheng. “The Genev family is showing some movement lately. I want you to go back and observe the situation.”
Huo Yingcheng caught the thing that flew at him and was confused. “What? You’re asking me to go back again? The last time I went back, the Old Master almost tore me to shreds!”
“Moreover, the Empire seems to have found out about you and Qingjiu. If I go back now, they will certainly interrogate me.”
“This is the main reason I am asking you to go back.”
He Niancheng put his hands together as he leaned against the office chair. “The Genev family matter isn’t important.”
Huo Yingcheng was speechless.
Bastard!
Sometimes Huo Yingcheng felt like revolting against He Niancheng because of the hurtful things he always spews out.
But he didn’t have the guts to…
But guts or no guts, he had no choice but to handle this matter.
Huo Yingcheng considered for a moment, then said, “Regarding you and Qingjiu, have you thought it over thoroughly?”
He Niancheng looked up at him, “Thought over it thoroughly?”
“You’re asking me to go back and talk about this matter. That’s like laying your cards on the table. Some aristocrats in the Empire surely won’t agree with your actions.”
“Agree?” He Niancheng let out a snicker. “Do I need those useless bums to agree?”
“…”
Right, he almost forgot that his boss always acted as he pleased.
“But have you considered Qingjiu’s thoughts about this? She’s still so young, only 18. Even if in the future, you two… That doesn’t mean that Gu Qingjiu already gave a thought about your future together. After all, she just started her career in China.”
“That’s why I’m not considering her thoughts on this for now.” He Niancheng was very direct. “She and I have a certain future unless I’m dead.”
Huo Yingcheng was speechless.
The big boss was domineering.
Huo Yingcheng didn’t quite understand. “What you’re doing is as good as presenting Gu Qingjiu in front of those people?”
“Since I already have decided, I also have the means to deal with it. I won’t let her face all those stuff, and I believe my father knows this very well.”
He Niancheng exuded an air of ‘Those who bow to me will prosper, and those who resist will perish.’
He simply didn’t care about what others thought.
What right did others have to meddle in his and Gu Qingjiu’s affairs?
“Fine, fine, fine, I’ll stop talking. I know what to say when I get back. I’ll go check on the Genev family when I get there.”
He Niancheng got up. Knowing that he and Huo Yincheng didn’t have much in common to talk about, he decided not to waste his breath anymore.
“I heard you’re going to bring Qingjiu to see Princess Man this week?”
He Niancheng responded with a hum.
“By the way, I obtained some news. Ye Huinan seems to be checking on Qingjiu.”
“I’m aware of this.”
He Niancheng looked towards his phone on the table nonchalantly. “Ye Huinan met her last time. But since he wishes to check on her, just let him do so. If his investigations led to me, he naturally knows he ought to stop.”
“Alright, Major-general. I’ll get going first.”
Huo Yingcheng left the office, and He Niancheng nodded in response.
Following that, he looked towards his phone and searched for Gu Qingjiu’s name.
In the past, he only felt that this little thing was interesting. Now that they have laid their age differences out, he felt a sense of urgency for some reason.
He Niancheng knew Gu Qingjiu could wait, but he, on the other hand, couldn’t wait for a few more years.
