Chapter 167: Chapter 167 Gu En’s Circle 7_1
"It’s not like we grew up together from a young age. When my family moved into the compound, I was already fifteen or sixteen," Zhou Chenyue answered, pursing her lips.
"Do you know if there was a couple in your compound, with the husband surnamed Gu and the wife surnamed Lan?" He Zhilan turned the faucet on even higher, the rushing sound of the water getting louder, and the droplets splashing from the strong flow landed on her clothes.
"The husband is surnamed Gu and the wife is surnamed Lan?" Zhou Chenyue tilted her head thoughtfully, "There aren’t many of my generation who are married, and there isn’t a couple where the husband is surnamed Gu and the wife is surnamed Lan. I don’t know about the previous generation because even if there were, I wouldn’t know. When people introduced me to my elders they would only say, ’Chenyue, this is your Uncle Gu, this is your Uncle Gu’s wife, you called her Aunt Gu."
After explaining, Zhou Chenyue turned off the faucet and shrugged at He Zhilan.
"What about Gu En? What are his parents’ names? Isn’t Lan Li his cousin? Could his mother’s surname be Lan?"
Before He Zhilan finished speaking, Zhou Chenyue exclaimed excitedly, slapping her thigh, "That’s right! How could I forget about Gu En’s parents! His father’s surname is Gu, and his mother’s is indeed Lan!"
If she weren’t leaning against the sink, He Zhilan could not guarantee that she wouldn’t collapse from excitement at this moment. She asked, "Do you know if their family has ever lost a child?"
"I’ve never heard of it. I’ve been living in the compound for many years now and never heard of anyone mentioning that they lost a child. It’s highly unlikely. You have to understand that the Gu Family isn’t just any ordinary family, how could they lose a child?" Finally, Zhou Chenyue looked at He Zhilan, "Why are you asking about this?"
He Zhilan shook her head, biting her lip, "Are you sure Gu En’s family has never lost a child?"
"Absolutely not. Every household in the compound knows each other’s business. Even trivial matters like what each family eats for their three meals can spread like wildfire, let alone something as significant as losing a child? If it really happened, could they keep it a secret?" Zhou Chenyue was very certain of this fact.
Noticing that He Zhilan’s expression wasn’t quite right, Zhou Chenyue glanced at her again, "Are you okay?"
"I’m fine." He Zhilan released her already pale lip and shook her head, "Go find your sister. Smoking too much is bad for her health, especially for women. When you find her, try to persuade her to quit."
"Which time I saw her smoking did I not try to dissuade her? She just won’t listen. Every time I visit her house, I have to rummage around and take her cigarettes away, but she’s not short of money. Every time I take some, she buys more!" Zhou Chenyue let out a sigh, "You don’t know how many cigarettes I have taken from her and stored at home, even my dad can’t smoke them all! I’m just hoping she will smoke less out of laziness to go out and buy new ones."
After the two women left the bathroom, they did not return to the private room. Zhou Chenyue asked a waiter and got news that someone saw Ding Jinshi heading to the first floor, so she and He Zhilan headed down to the first floor.
The two descended the stairs and immediately spotted a male singer passionately crooning a soft love song on the small stage on the first floor. They circled around the small stage, looking around the large hall, but the hall was quite large, making their search rather strenuous.
"Zhou Chenyue, let’s split up and look for her. If I find your sister, I’ll come find you. If neither of us finds her, let’s meet back here at the stairs in twenty minutes."
