The full text of the Outline Against the Huns contains 738 characters.
Nan XiangWan recited it haltingly for half a day in the evening, needing Gu Beihuai to prompt her several times before she could continue.
But her emotion was in place, as if possessed by Zhuge Liang, looking indignant!
When it got exciting, she even started wailing!
"Now I must leave you, with tears wetting this paper, not knowing what more to say!" Ah!"
She looked as if she was Zhuge Liang himself, expressing all kinds of heartache at the useless Liu Chan!
Having finally finished reciting, her emotional outpouring was over.
Nan Xiangwan hiccupped again from the alcohol, sitting blankly for a while.
Gu Beihuai just watched her quietly.
Afraid she would continue to make trouble...
Sure enough, Nan Xiangwan stirred again shortly.
She stood up!
Stood straight, but couldn't stand straight.
After struggling to stand properly for a while, she put her hands behind her back and looked at Gu Beihuai.
Gu Beihuai was startled, then nodded at her cooperatively.
Slap!
Nan Xiangwan suddenly slapped the table hard!
And shouted angrily: "Heaven brings great responsibilities upon this person!"
Gu Beihuai: "..."
Good!
She started reciting "Born in Hardship, Die in Ease", another ancient poem required for the college entrance exam.
Gu Beihuai's silence seemed to have angered Nan Xiangwan.
She slapped the table again.
The slaps rang loudly!
Nan Xiangwan: "What's next? Recite quickly!"
Gu Beihuai was silent for a moment, then recited: "One's heart and will must first suffer, one's muscles and bones must toil, one's skin and flesh must starve, one's body must be depleted."
Nan Xiangwan nodded satisfiedly and continued: "People can always improve after mistakes!"
Gu Beihuai already understood her routine, and immediately followed up: "Confined by the mind, weighed down by worries, then take action."
And so.
The two recited from one ancient poem to ten ancient poems.
Endless, until Nan Xiangwan's speech was slurred, and her biological clock forced her eyelids to droop after 10:30 at night.
Then...
She slumped onto the sofa!
Not knowing if she had passed out from drunkenness, or couldn't stay awake any longer.
Gu Beihuai breathed a sigh of relief, finally it ended!
Damn, accompanying this little brat in reciting ancient poems for an hour!
Looking at the fast asleep Nan Xiangwan, Gu Beihuai shook his head with a smile, then gently picked her up and carried her into the guest room.
He took off her shoes and tucked her into bed.
Nan Xiangwan snuggled comfortably into the quilt, rubbing her face against it, then curled up into a ball.
Sleeping sweetly!
Watching this scene, Gu Beihuai felt strange, tiptoed out of the room, turned off the lights and closed the door.
It was like taking care of a daughter!
Back in the living room.
He started cleaning up the mess Nan Xiangwan had made, and picked up the paper she had scribbled crooked words on.
Gu Beihuai suddenly felt it was very worth commemorating.
So he carefully kept it to get framed another day.
............
9 am the next morning.
Everyone from top to bottom in Hua Wan Entertainment was shocked.
Anxiety spread throughout the company!
Zhu Sha was getting her makeup done in the trainee's makeup room when people were anxiously scurrying like ants in the corridor.
Zhu Sha opened the door and asked: "What happened?"
Cheng Xue saw Zhu Sha and looked her over: "You're on the same show as Boss Nan! Do you know where Nan Xiangwan is?"
Little chubby Xiao Dong next to her even cried anxiously, fat tears rolling down her face: "I clearly sent her back safely to her apartment! How could we lose contact?!"
Cheng Xue was extremely anxious and exasperated: "She's not picking up no matter how many times we call! It's impossible for her to have overslept, she gets up at 6 am every day to train!"
Xiao Dong: "That's right, that's right!"
Zhu Sha calmly said: "Why not ask the property manager, report it to the police, check the surveillance cameras?"
Cheng Xue's eyes widened: "Right, check the surveillance!"
Xiao Dong also started taking action, and the group began running wildly.
Shao Fu gave Zhu Sha an approving look, patting her on the shoulder.
So the group hurriedly and anxiously started contacting Ji Mansion's property manager.
The boss was missing!
Check the surveillance!
Originally, Ji Mansion's property manager would never easily show outsiders the surveillance footage, but since Hua Wan Entertainment had reported it to the police, officers came along to help search for the missing person.
When property manager Wan Meng learned of the situation, she also became nervous.
Nan Xiangwan missing?
So, with everyone's combined efforts, they pulled up the surveillance footage.
The surveillance showed that Nan Xiangwan had returned to her apartment at 8 pm last night, and had not left again until this morning.
That meant, unless she had flown away by helicopter, she must still be in the apartment!
Property manager Wan Meng: "The owner of unit 2202 did not apply for helicopter landing, the rooftop garden helipad does not have any helicopters."
This directly ruled out the possibility of leaving by helicopter!
The police officer looked at the time: "Isn't this a bit of an overreaction?"
It was only 9:30 am now, she probably just slept in right?
Cheng Xue: "She's a person who normally gets up at 6 am every day, how could she still be uncontactable until now! I'm worried!"
Property manager Wan Meng also explained to the side: "It's true, I'm Ban Zuan, I know Nan Xiangwan's daily routine, she sleeps every night at 9 pm, and definitely gets up at 6 am!"
Hearing them both speak so solemnly, the police officer thought for a moment: "I remember your apartment's rooftop garden connects two units, right?"
Property manager Wan Meng was startled: "That's right."
Police officer: "Please take us there and ask the neighbor in unit 2201 what they say."
With no other clues found, and unable to break in, the only lead was the neighbor in unit 2201.
Wan Meng quickly checked: "Yes, 2201 is occupied!"
Five minutes later.
A large group of people strode up to the door of unit 2201.
They rang the doorbell.
Not long after, Gu Beihuai, who had just finished exercising and showered, opened the door.
He was wearing a bathrobe at the moment, with wet hair.
As soon as he opened the door, everyone including the police officer was stunned by the billowing steam, the female staff all looked away, not daring to stare.
This scene was truly rousing!
Moreover, the resident of this unit turned out to be the heavenly king Gu Beihuai?!
Cheng Xue and Shao Fu were dumbfounded, what an overly coincidental situation!
Gu Beihuai was puzzled to see so many people, including police officers at his door.
What was going on?
The police officer took out his credentials and asked: "Owner of unit 2201, we have a missing person case under investigation here, please cooperate with our investigation. "
Gu Beihuai nodded: "Sure, go ahead."
Police officer: "Did you see the owner of unit 2202, Nan Xiangwan, at any time between 8 pm last night and 9 am this morning?"
Gu Beihuai: "Oh, yes I did, she's at my place now."
Police officer: "???"
Everyone: "???"
Gu Beihuai stepped aside from the doorway politely and said: "Did something happen? She came to my place at 9 pm last night, and is still sleeping now."
Police officer: "!!!"
Everyone: "!!!"
