Chapter 39: Visiting Xiao Gu

How could Teacher Xiao Ye break her promise?

And that old man, he always asks about my progress, but he doesn’t show up when it matters! What kind of person is he!

After much thought, I decided to call my dad.

Commander Gu was quite surprised when he received my call: “Why are you calling me?”

“Can’t I call you if I have nothing to do? Thanks for the things you sent last time.”

This thank you made Commander Gu feel a little guilty, mainly because he asked the guard to deliver things to Xiao Qing, and the guard mentioned whether to send some to Huaizhi. He wasn’t just remembering that he had a son, but that he had never sent anything to his son before, so he sent a package along with it.

He sent everyday food that could be bought, like the new variety of honey pears, which he didn’t have enough of, as the research institute only sent a limited amount to Beijing.

He coughed: “Are you calling me just for this?”

“Yeah.”

“I think you’re just bored.”

Just as Commander Gu was about to hang up, Gu Huaizhi spoke again: “I saw my blind date the other day.”

“Oh? Really?!”

Commander Gu changed his tone three times in a row, making Huaizhi speechless.

Of course he knew who his son was talking about, so he asked: “Did you guys get along well? You need to know how to take care of people.”

“She said she would come to inspect my training.”

“How’s your training going?”

“Still under review.”

Commander Gu understood his son well. Still under review meant Xiao Qing hadn’t gone. The reason why she hadn’t gone was probably because she was busy with work, definitely not because she forgot, her brain is as good as a computer.

Thinking about this, he said: “Since it’s still under review, just wait. Why are you calling me? Do you want me to urge her or plead for you?”

“Of course not!” Gu Huaizhi still knew his limits. He couldn’t just bother his father with personal matters: “I just think some things shouldn’t be forgotten. I hope she remembers to come and see me when she’s not busy.”

Little Gu classmate didn’t know how good Ye Qinglan’s brain was.

Commander Gu: “It’s good that you still understand. Anything else? I’m hanging up.” I’m going to laugh!

The moment he hung up, a burst of laughter came from his office.

He really didn’t expect it! His son, who was so resistant to blind dates before, actually took it to heart!

He liked this direction, even though he had forcefully told his son that Xiao Qing’s approval was enough, he still hoped they could like each other, otherwise it would be difficult to be happy in the future. After all, he was his own son, and he still hoped he could find happiness.

Now it’s so good, his son took it to heart! As long as this kid takes it to heart, anything is possible.

Thinking of his son’s pitiful tone, Commander Gu called Ye Qinglan at lunchtime. Of course, he didn’t mention his son at all, just a routine check-in, and told her that the military factory had made the gadgets she wanted, and they would be sent to her this afternoon.

The military factory in the north was under his jurisdiction, nothing could escape his notice.

This call reminded Ye Qinglan of Gu Huaizhi.

On Saturday afternoon, she gathered the newspapers on her desk. She and Xiao Chen had scoured newspapers from all over the country for the past few years, and had even called the leaders of other intelligence departments, asking them to notify her if they found anything unusual when collecting information.

She was also considering setting up a mailbox for strange and interesting stories, otherwise it would take forever to find one. But she was also worried that those people abroad would understand the purpose of her mailbox and use it to do bad things.

However, before that, she decided to find Lin Fei’s villains first.

When AI told her the plot, it mentioned that it had made Lin Fei’s villains very powerful, but they died tragically, so that Lin Fei’s awesomeness could be shown.

The ending of one of the villains was particularly thought-provoking. After Lin Fei ruined his business, he was left with nothing and was betrayed by his confidant. He was poisoned by his own confidant and even his body was made into a specimen by the confidant and sent to a foreign hospital.

If it weren’t for the existence of the Country W and Country S special ability organizations, she might have considered that he was really made into a specimen.

But now, she doubts it.

Speaking of which, all of Lin Fei’s face-slapping villains were related to business wars, and the cause of the conflict was always the little things between men and women, either the villain fell in love with the heroine or the villain fell in love with the hero.

The specimen villain fell in love with the hero, and this villain was also a man, she couldn’t understand AI’s logic, but she was shocked!

Thankfully, Lin Fei’s main plot had nothing to do with the people she was encountering now.

She locked the door of her office and went back to change clothes.

When she went out, she met other colleagues from the intelligence department. Everyone in their hearts flashed a hint of curiosity.

The two offices on the left side of the second floor suddenly had someone coming to work, and not only that, there were no signs on the doors.

They occasionally met each other for meals these days, but they didn’t communicate with each other, and they didn’t know what to call them. Their superiors told them not to ask anything.

After dinner, Ye Qinglan borrowed a car from the logistics department and went to the camp in the suburbs.

Gu Huaizhi was at the training ground at this time.

When a soldier came to inform him: “Captain Gu, a woman claiming to be your teacher is here to see you.”

Gu Huaizhi smiled, almost showing his teeth.

Seeing this, the soldier thought there was something going on, the woman was very young! But she called herself a teacher! Captain Gu really knows how to play!

“Where is she now?”

“In the reception room.”

Gu Huaizhi: “I’ll be right there.”

He wiped the sweat off his forehead with a towel as he walked, although it was a normal action, the other comrades nearby had already started gossiping quietly.

Captain Gu is popular, he’s so old and still has a teacher coming to visit him?

Only Zhang Yang and Tie Jianjun smelled something unusual.

Soon Gu Huaizhi saw Ye Qinglan in the reception room, wearing a black leather jacket, with a whip wrapped around her wrist, she looked even more dashing than when he saw her at the train station.

His eyes curved into a smile, and his first words were: “Welcome, leader, for taking time out of your busy schedule to inspect our school!”

The soldier who led the way thought to himself: I don’t understand, but I’m shocked.

“So formal?” Ye Qinglan laughed: “Next time remember to prepare some wreaths.”

“Okay. Leader, please—” Gu Huaizhi extended his hand.

Ye Qinglan nodded.

As they walked out of the reception room, Gu Huaizhi asked seemingly casually: “How have you been lately?”

“Not bad. How about you? I got a call from your dad yesterday.”

Gu Huaizhi felt a little chill in his heart, so without my dad’s call, you really forgot about the inspection?
