Chapter 1128 - Worship You Everyday
Hello, Mr. Major General
Chapter 1128 Worship You Everyday
Reinitz, “…”
“Do I look very hungry?”
“That’s right, your eyes look like someone who has starved for a long time and finally saw delicious food. It’s a bit harrowing.” Gu Nianzhi giggled as she sat down in the dining room.
Reinitz rubbed his nose before bringing out the last plate of steak and putting on his place setting.
Gu Nianzhi took out the red wine Reinitz brought last time and filled a glass for him. She served herself a glass of grape juice symbolically.
She would never drink in front of Reinitz.
Reinitz seemed to know about her habit as well, so he didn’t force her to drink. He raised his glass with a smile, “Cheers.”
“Cheers.” Gu Nianzhi raised her glass of grape juice.
Just as she took a sip, her phone began to ring.
Gu Nianzhi grabbed it to take a look and saw that it was Ma Qiqi calling. She hadn’t been in contact with Ma Qiqi for a long time now, so she didn’t hesitate to answer. She smiled as she asked, “Qiqi?”
“Nianzhi! Are you at home? I’m at the entrance of your building. Tell your property manager to let me inside!” Ma Qiqi’s bubbly voice sounded from her phone.
Gu Nianzhi quickly answered, “Ok, I’ll call the property management.”
She called the landline to the community’s security center and told them, “Qiqi is my good friend, please let her inside.”
The landline of the community’s security center displayed Gu Nianzhi’s address. The security guard saw that Gu Nianzhi was a resident of the community and was giving him permission, so he finally let Ma Qiqi and Yin Shixiong in.
Yin Shixiong drove to the underground parkade of Gu Nianzhi’s apartment building. He said to Ma Qiqi, “You can go upstairs first, I’m going to take a few photos.”
Ma Qiqi nodded, “You should come upstairs soon, I’ll go first.”
After Ma Qiqi left, Yin Shixiong found Reinitz’s car and walked over to carefully examine the windows.
It was actually bulletproof glass.
This was also an extraordinarily sturdy car and was obviously bulletproof too…
When Yin Shixiong considered it some more, he realized that the Director of the German Federal Intelligence Service must drive a bulletproof car.
Yin Shixiong didn’t think it was strange anymore, so he took out his high-definition professional camera and took several hundred photos of the ballistics on the windows. He sent them back to his colleagues.
…
Ma Qiqi went to Gu Nianzhi’s door and rang the doorbell.
Gu Nianzhi instantly swung the door open and cracked a huge grin, “Qiqi! I finally get to see you!”
The two girls embraced each other happily.
Reinitz stuffed his hands in his pockets and walked over from behind Gu Nianzhi. He asked with a smile, “…May I ask who this is?”
He spoke English with a British accent.
Ma Qiqi stiffened. She looked up to see a blonde-haired, blue-eyed handsome man with exquisite features that were akin to ancient Greek sculptures. Although he was smiling, he had a faint aura of elegance and elevated distance that could never be traversed. It felt like he pushed everyone away and kept them at an arm’s length.
But a god should rightfully be worshipped and enshrined high above the people.
Ma Qiqi’s eyes instantly sparkled and she grabbed Gu Nianzhi’s hand. She looked at Reinitz while saying to Gu Nianzhi, “Nianzhi, you’re too amazing! Why didn’t you tell me you were hiding a beautiful man in your house?”
Gu Nianzhi felt completely embarrassed.
She laughed awkwardly before introducing them to each other, “This is Ma Qiqi, my roommate during graduate studies. This is Major General Reinitz. You saw him before on TV.”
Ma Qiqiq offered her hand excitedly, “Major General Reinitz, what a pleasure to meet you!”
Reinitz gave her a tight-lipped smile before bowing slightly, “Hello.”
He didn’t shake hands with her and appeared to be somewhat of a germaphobe.
This only made Ma Qiqi think he was even more mysterious and alluring.
Reinitz went back first, so Ma Qiqi and Gu Nianzhi excitedly whispered in each other’s ears, “Oh my, Nianzhi! This guy is too handsome! Where did you find such an insanely handsome guy?!”
Gu Nianzhi pouted before pinching Ma Qiqi and whispering, “He’s alright. I’ve met even more handsome men. You need to be more careful, Brother Xiong will give you a hard time if he finds out about this!”
Ma Qiqi immediately answered, “Big Xiong is coming too. He’s coming upstairs in a bit. Just let me enjoy Reinitz’s beauty before Big Xiong comes. I promise I won’t even look at Reinitz once Big Xiong gets here.”
“Fine, fine, fine! Go on and enjoy his beauty.” Gu Nianzhi was amused, “What do you want to eat? Today we have Weisswurst sausages, German smoked pork hock, pan-fried Kobe steaks, and sauced bamboo shoots. All these were made by the guy whom you think is so handsome.”
“All these are so good! And it’s even better that the handsome guy made it!” Ma Qiqi was nearly drooling, “I must try these Weisswurst sausages. I heard you talking about them many times.”
Gu Nianzhi smiled as she took Ma Qiqi to the dining room. Then, she went to the kitchen to make some toast and bring them out on a plate.
In the dining room, Ma Qiqi looked at Reinitz with sparkling eyes while she asked him all sorts of curious questions.
For example, “Mr. Reinitz, when did you first meet Nianzhi?”
“Mr. Reinitz, did you make all these dishes by yourself? How did you come up with the idea of coming to Nianzhi’s home and cooking for her? Why didn’t you invite her out for dinner?”
Reinitz sat elegantly on the seat. His was back ramrod straight and he had a faint smile on his face. However, his expression wasn’t very friendly since he was just being polite and refused to answer any questions. He continued to sip red wine from the glass.
Gu Nianzhi had never witnessed Reinitz behave in such a polite yet distant manner to push people away. She frowned slightly.
From the first time she saw Reinitz, he had always been friendly, gentle, and treated her especially well. She even assumed that was his normal personality.
But by the looks of things now, it was all because she was “his assignment and target”.
His treatment of Ma Qiqi was how he actually behaved as a person.
He didn’t even waste a smile on someone who was of no value to him.
Ma Qiqi asked a whole slew of questions but didn’t get any responses from Reinitz, so she quickly lost interest as well.
Although this handsome man was very good looking, his poor attitude seriously decreased his attractiveness.
Ma Qiqi had no self-harm tendencies, so her friendliness quickly evaporated.
Gu Nianzhi brought out a tray of fresh toast and set it in front of Ma Qiqi. She said cheerfully, “Have this with the Weisswurst sausages. It’s very tasty.”
Ma Qiqi grabbed a piece of warm toast and tried it with a piece of Weisswurst sausage.
“Yes, yes! It’s really so delicious! This bread has a special favor and matches perfectly with the Weisswurst sausage! Oh no, my diet plan is down the drain! Nianzhi, I’m telling you that my entire month of dieting is wasted now. You need to take responsibility for this!”
Even though Ma Qiqi was complaining, she didn’t stop to catch her breath before gobbling down several pieces of toast and Weisswurst sausages.
Reinitz watched Ma Qiqi eating voraciously. He indifferently lowered his head to take another sip of red wine. He got up and told Gu Nianzhi, “It’s getting late, I need to go now. Thank you for treating me, you must tell me if you ever come back to Germany.”
Reinitz and his men had been in the Huaxia Empire for several days now but it was now time to go home.
Gu Nianzhi didn’t ask him to stay. She stood up with a smile, “You prepared all the food, so I didn’t actually treat you. I’ll take you out for a roast duck when you come back next time.”
“Ok, that’s a promise.” Reinitz politely replied as he reached out to shake Gu Nianzhi’s hand.
Gu Nianzhi shook his hand, then discovered he was discreetly pushing a balled-up note in her palm.
Gu Nianzhi held onto it without giving any signal, “I’ll walk you out.”
Gu Nianzhi put on her coat then said to Ma Qiqi, “Help yourself, Qiqi. I’ll be back right away.”
“It’s all good, I’m not going to pretend to be polite with you.” Ma Qiqi grinned since she was already thinking about how she would flaunt her excellent performance to Huo Shaoheng…
Gu Nianzhi and Reinitz had just stepped outside of the apartment when Ma Qiqi dialed Huo Shaoheng’s number.
Huo Shaoheng immediately answered, “Qiqi?”
“Huo Shao, you’d better thank me and Big Xiong. We just arrived and Reinitz decided to leave.” Ma Qiqi giggled, then turned on the video call on her phone to show Huo Shaoheng, “Look, Reinitz made all this food but he only ate a little bit before leaving.”
Huo Shaoheng looked at the dinner displayed on his phone screen and memorized the types of dishes, “Thank you, Qiqi. Where did Big Xiong go?”
He didn’t see Yin Shixiong in the camera’s frame.
“Big Xiong is still in the parking lot.” Ma Qiqi ended the video call, “Ok, I’m going to wait for Nianzhi and Big Xiong to come back.”
…
Gu Nianzhi and Reinitz went into the elevator together.
As she watched the elevator floor numbers continue to decrease, Gu Nianzhi asked quietly, “…What did you give me?”
“I think it’s what you need the most.” Reinitz stuffed his hands inside his coat pockets.
He was very tall, so he only needed to look forward when standing beside Gu Nianzhi to see the swirl of hair on the top of her head.
Her hair was extremely dark and provided a stark contrast to the paleness of the skin under the swirl of hair.
Gu Nianzhi laughed, “I need many things, so how do you know this is what I need the most?”
“Oh really? If you don’t actually need it, it’s fine for you to throw away.” Reinitz didn’t seem to have the energy to chat anymore; his expression was a bit dejected.
Gu Nianzhi was secretly confused but didn’t say anything again.
She walked Reinitz all the way to the underground parkade and ran into Yin Shixiong as soon as they walked out of the elevator.
Gu Nianzhi exclaimed with surprise, “Brother Xiong! Why did you come so late? Qiqi was waiting for you for so long!”
Yin Shixiong quickly replied, “Hahahaha, what a coincidence!”
He grabbed Gu Nianzhi’s hand before waving at Reinitz with his free hand, “Major General Reinitz, what a pleasure to meet you. However, you really can’t be meeting Nianzhi privately like this again. Otherwise, she will get into trouble.”
“Really? Am I that attractive? I’ll make her get into trouble?” Reinitz smiled wryly at Gu Nianzhi, “I thought Cereus didn’t find me attractive enough.”
Gu Nianzhi was very embarrassed.
Did Reinitz hear her whispering to Ma Qiqi earlier?
No wonder he acted aloof and ignored them later on. He was so haughty and distant that he was almost like a god high above them…
But would he actually be so petty?
As the head of the German Federal Intelligence Service, wasn’t Reinitz putting up an act?
Gu Nianzhi rolled her eyes internally, but still kept a smile on her face as she said, “As if… Major General Reinitz is shockingly attractive, just like Apollo! Women want to worship you as soon as they lay their eyes on you!”
“Really?” Reinitz smiled, “Do you want to worship me too?”
“I want to.” Gu Nianzhi cocked her head and smiled slyly, “I’ll burn incense for you three times a day, and worship you with fresh flowers, water, and fruits!”
Pfft!
Yin Shixiong couldn’t take it anymore. He thrust his head into the elevator and his entire body shook as he tried to hold back his laughter.
