When Gu Nianzhi dialed the number, it was already noon.
Huo Shaoheng had just returned to his room from his meeting with the Senate, and was now eating lunch and reading the National Defense bulletin at the same time. He would be meeting with the top brass of the Ministry of Defense in the afternoon, and he was preparing for it.
He heard his phone ring, and saw with a quick glance that it was an incoming call from the internal telephone line installed in Gu Nianzhi's bedroom, over at the Special Operations Forces military base.
Yesterday, Yin Shixiong had told him about Gu Nianzhi's sudden holiday, and how she would be spending a few days at the military base.
This incoming call likely meant that she had already checked in.
No one else would call him on this number.
Huo Shaoheng thought of what had happened at Dufeng Mountain Resort Villa last night. He unlocked the phone with his long, powerful fingers.
