Chapter 219: Chapter 219: An Old Friend from Twelve Years Ago 6_1

At this moment, in her eyes, Gu En was not just unreasonable, but also brutal. How could He Zhilan possibly not be angry? How could she keep her sanity after hearing such hurtful words?

Her beloved, He Teng, almost lost his life standing up for Lan Li, and is still lying in the hospital. Yet, listen to how Gu En puts it — are these words that a conscientious person would use to refer to his compassion and his sacrifices?

Indeed, Lan Li and his cousin are of the same ilk! He Zhilan truly felt sorry for He Teng!

"Admitting right away that you’re a fool without any modesty! You take in everything that Lin Chan says, Zhilan; did you make your brain out of tofu dregs?" The corner of Gu En’s lips tightened as she snorted coldly. "I don’t know Liao Qinghong, let alone her family. Yesterday, I was alone in the dorm when someone came looking for you. I mistook her for your mother, thinking she had gotten the news of He Teng’s hospitalization and came to the capital to take care of him. That’s why I told her you were at the General Military Hospital taking care of He Teng, and when she asked me for the room number, I gave it to her. I don’t ******* have clairvoyance, how was I supposed to know that woman was Liao Qinghong’s mother, or that she was a lunatic who’d run to the hospital to attack you?"

After the sarcastic remarks, Gu En snorted again, explaining. Perhaps because she was so furious, she cursed at He Zhilan, staring at her fiercely, "You are so ungrateful! If I hadn’t told you, you wouldn’t even know your brother was in the hospital fighting for his life!"

After snapping at He Zhilan, Gu En got out of bed and headed straight for the bathroom, slamming the door with an earth-shattering bang.

He Zhilan froze in place. Was it really so? Was it a misunderstanding that she thought Liao’s mother was her own mother, and that’s why she told her about He Teng’s hospital room? Had she truly misunderstood Gu En?

"Zhilan, let’s go. Let’s get to class first." Jiang Biyun finally regained her composure from the heated argument between He Zhilan and Gu En. This was the first time she had ever seen He Zhilan lose her temper, and it was also the first time she had seen Gu En scold someone so fiercely.

He Zhilan was being dragged away from the dorm by Jiang Biyun. On their way to the classroom, Jiang Biyun began to ask He Zhilan about what happened. After listening to He Zhilan’s saga, Jiang Biyun sighed, "Maybe you did misunderstand Gu En. Her explanations seemed to make sense. After all, we don’t know each other’s family members, and your brother is in the hospital. It’s understandable that she thought your mother had come to the capital to take care of him."

Before He Zhilan could answer, Jiang Biyun continued, "But what’s the story about killing a cat? It sounds creepy. Did Gu En really kill a cat when she was ten? Is that true?"

He Zhilan nodded. Between Gu En and Lin Chan, undoubtedly, she trusted Lin Chan more.

"But it seemed like Gu En didn’t own up to it. Could there be some misunderstanding? A 10-year-old girl could not have done such a cruel thing, right?" Jiang Biyun felt a chill, she shivered and shook her head, "Forget it. Let’s not talk about Gu En anymore. Is Liao Qinghong’s mom mentally ill? Your brother’s situation has nothing to do with her. Why did she make a scene at his hospital room? Is your brother okay?"

"The doctors said he didn’t lay hands on anyone, and they got him in time so nothing serious happened." He Zhilan shook her head. "But, Jiang Biyun, do you know? When I saw him fall down in front of me, I was terrified. I was really afraid that he wouldn’t get back up."
