It didn't matter to Huo Shaoheng how Gu Nianzhi intended to deal with Cai Songyin. In any case, he was going to take action if Gu Nianzhi didn't. Upon hearing from Gu Nianzhi that it was Cai Songyin who procured a third party to write the outline of the short essay, he was furious. If muddy water was splashed on him, he didn't care. In his field of work, he was already mentally prepared for that. Not only did he give no thought to matters of life and death, even his own life was tossed to the back of his mind.
What mattered to Gu Nianzhi did not matter to him. What he really minded was that such a dirty trick was used to discredit Gu Nianzhi, who was only an innocent 12-year-old girl at the time.
He was indeed strict with Gu Nianzhi. He scolded and lectured her at times, and even made her go through hardships. However, who were Cai Songyin and Tan Dongbang to do that, as if they deserved to lecture Gu Nianzhi?!
