"You have guests?" Huo Shaoheng stood up. "I'd better get going then."
"Go back for what?" General Ji wouldn't accept his refusal. "Since you're here why don't you stay for dinner! When was the last time you left here without eating?"
Huo Shaoheng smiled as he bent down to take his briefcase from the sofa. "You didn't have guests the other times, so it didn't hurt if I stuck around for a meal. Since you do have a guest now, it wouldn't do for me to stay."
"Why would it not do? She's not really a guest since you've met her before." General Ji glared at him. "You don't remember Xu Piaohong, the daughter of Deputy Chief of Staff Xu from the Third Regiment of Military Tactical Operations Department?"
Huo Shaoheng pretended to think hard and shook his head. "I really don't recall. I've met her?"
