Chapter 80: The Capitalist Who Would Not Take Any Loss

After the dinner, when He Tingzhou came out, a guard had been waiting for him for a long time.

He stood in the inconspicuous shadows, bowed respectfully, and whispered: "The leader just landed last night, please go home now."

"We can talk tomorrow if you have anything to say." He Tingzhou took the car key to unlock the car and said in a casual tone, "I'm not free tonight."

"The commander will be back to the military district early tomorrow morning. He hasn't seen you for a while and misses you very much."

"What are you worried about?" He Tingzhou said in a very filial manner. "If the schedule is so tight, don't run back and forth. Everyone is very busy. It won't hurt to see each other less."

"..." This guard has been with Commander He for many years and knows the temper of his own prince very well. Apart from him, there is no one else in the world who dares not to give face to the commander.

The guard patiently advised, "The chief came back this time to talk to you about the Shen family incident a while ago. You used his name to get him out of the disciplinary committee without informing him beforehand. At least you should explain it to him afterwards."

He Tingzhou clicked his tongue.

That's true. I'm doing this for the old man's sake, so I have to give him some face today.

The He family still lives in the military compound. There are armed police guarding the gate, and entry requires multiple levels of inspection.

All the people who lived in this compound were important people without exception. The He family had a private residence in the most prestigious area. Commander He was not often at home. He was usually alone with his dog, but he hired twelve servants to take care of the family.

They take care of the flowers and plants, irrigate the green space, sweep the floor, wipe the table, and trim the branches of the Podocarpus hortensis at the door...even the meals of the Doberman are taken care of by two people. It can be said that they are extremely extravagant.

Not for any other reason, just because this young master doesn't like being too quiet.

Because of this incident, Commander He has been criticized for his bad conduct. Being in his position, he should not let others use him as a handle.

But everyone knew that he felt indebted to his only son, so he was particularly indulgent to him and allowed him to do anything as long as he did not break the law.

He Tingzhou's car drove into the yard. Commander He was sitting in the living room, listening to someone report on his recent daily life.

No matter how big or small the matter was, even the number of times he stayed out all night in a month was counted clearly.

He Tingzhou walked in lazily, walked to the maid, and pointed at her notebook: "Sister Zhao has learned to be lazy. Why didn't you write it down yesterday?"

Sister Zhao said "oh" twice, quickly put a hook on yesterday's date, and then said to Commander He, "He didn't come back last night either."

Commander He gave her a cold look, and she quickly took her notebook and left.

He Tingzhou sat down opposite him, crossed his long legs, and said sarcastically: "What era is it now? I still have an attendant. Why don't you conquer the country and make me emperor?"

The guard quickly cleared his throat and reminded: "Be careful with your words. Be careful with your words."

He Qingwei was still wearing his military uniform, a rich and solemn dark blue color, with golden pine branches and three five-pointed stars on his epaulettes. Even sitting there without saying a word, he looked so dignified that anyone would be intimidated.

He Tingzhou's temperament, which is both good and evil, is like two extremes from him.

He Qiwei said, "I heard about Shen Changyuan's bribery case. It's a complicated matter. Others don't dare to get involved. But you have the guts to act in my name. How come I don't know when I became a "guarantor" for Shen Changyuan?"

As soon as he came forward, the Zheng family had to think twice before slamming the shit basin on Shen Changyang's head.

While he was talking, He Tingzhou lowered his head and typed on his phone. He sent a message but received no reply. He turned the phone around and said casually, "You came all the way back to settle accounts with me?"

He Qingwei was silent for a moment, and finally let it go gently: "It's rare for you to help others with their financial problems. It seems that you care about your friend Shen Yu very much."

He Tingzhou pulled his lip in an ambiguous manner and leaned back in his chair.

"You say so."

Both the father and the son were not talkative people. After a few words about a major event that had shaken Yancheng, they had nothing else to say.

After sitting quietly for a while, he looked at his phone again, so He Qingwei asked, "Have you been living outside a lot recently?"

He Tingzhou said, "You should be worried if I, at my age, don't live outside."

“…”

He Qingwei: "I'm worried that you won't sleep well."

"Don't worry about what happens in bed with me." He Tingzhou said lazily, "I have a sense of boundaries."

“…”

Commander He was so annoyed that he waved his hand and said, "Okay, go wherever you want."

"Next time you want to see me, please make an appointment in advance. I'm very busy lately." He Tingzhou hooked his coat with his index finger, hung it on his shoulder, and left.

The guard standing outside the door saw that he was going out so late and said, "The chief will only be at home for one night, won't you accompany him?"

"You still need someone to coax you to sleep at your age." He Tingzhou opened the car door, his voice diluted by the night, and said, "Just try to overcome it yourself. He never coaxed me to sleep when I was a kid."

It took almost two hours to go back and forth.

He Tingzhou returned to Taiheyuan. This villa covering an area of ​​1,600 square meters seemed even more deserted in the middle of the night than in the daytime.

He didn't like the silence without any human voices. The dog heard the car and ran to the door to greet him.

"Where are the people?"

The dog wagged its tail and led him inside, up to the second floor, and into the bedroom.

A thin figure was lying on the bed, with black hair scattered on the white sheets like flowing ink.

She fell asleep.

Shuang Xu originally thought that He Tingzhou would be back soon, but he didn't expect to have to wait for two hours.

She was tired of waiting and wanted to go home, but then she received a message from He Tingzhou with just two words:

Don't run

I had no choice but to keep waiting, and I fell asleep without knowing when.

Shuang Xu was suffocated to wake up. Unable to breathe through her nose, she instinctively opened her mouth and slowly struggled to wake up.

She was completely confused and hadn't realized where she was. He Tingzhou loosened his hand that was pinching her nose and asked, "Are you coming to sleep with me?"

She panted and dazed for a few seconds, and the sleepiness in her eyes slowly disappeared. She spoke with a tired nasal tone: "...What time is it?"

"Three minutes to one."

He Tingzhou lay beside her, supporting his head with one hand, staring at her with his nonchalant black eyes: "I pinched your nose for a minute before you woke up. You are really good at holding your breath."

"I practiced it when I was learning to swim."

How cruel! He woke her up at three in the morning by pinching her nose. A capitalist who won't take even a little loss.

Shuang Xu rubbed his eyes and asked him, "Do you want to do it now?"
