Chapter 287: Chapter 287 Gu En visits the patient10_1

"Fine, even if they don’t dare to spread any rumors about me, what about Jiang Biyun and Chen Xiting? Aren’t they quite close with Tan Heqian? Why wouldn’t they relay any rumors between the two of them and Tan Heqian? Besides, what’s wrong with me mentioning it in front of Captain He? He Zhilan is eighteen now, an adult, is she not allowed to date? Even if Captain He is He Zhilan’s brother, surely he can’t prevent her from dating, right?" Gu En flung the car door open, throwing it shut with a slam. "You just can’t stand me mentioning anything about He Zhilan, am I right? I can’t even bring up any rumors about her! What is He Zhilan in your eyes? Just a country bumpkin and village girl, so why are you all protecting her? What is so great about her?"

The words that came later were practically a roar from Gu En to Lan Li inside the car. After she had finished yelling, she stood defiantly outside the car, biting her lip as she cried in silence.

Lan Li suddenly felt a headache coming on. He was really at a loss of what to do with Gu En. No matter how slightly harsh his words, Gu En would end up crying because of his scolding.

Whenever Gu En was being unreasonable, it did make Lan Li sometimes want to firmly discipline her. However, each time after disciplining her, she would cry so quietly that it made him feel incredibly guilty.

"Get back in the car and drive us back. If you don’t, Bian Muhe will harass us at the hospital and who knows what could happen," Lan Li finally chose to compromise. Right now wasn’t a good time to discipline Gu En. The capital isn’t large or small, and it wouldn’t be good if someone saw them. Gu En was hot-tempered, and what Lan Li feared most was Gu En flying into a rage and creating chaos on the streets.

"So you aren’t going to scold me anymore?" Gu En asked, one hand on the car door, the other clutching the corner of her dress, her tear-streaked eyes shyly looking at Lan Li.

Lan Li shook his head and sighed. "Get back in. I try not to scold you, but it’s hard to bear when your temper goes off. I’m just scared that one day, you’ll hurt yourself because of this temper. But when I do scold you, you get upset. Gu En, when will you grow up?"

Had it been anyone else, Gu En would’ve stormed off. But as it was Lan Li, she didn’t dare to. So, in the end, she climbed back into the car and drove it to the designated area to wait for the Lan family’s chauffeur as Lan Li had instructed.

He Zhilan had no idea of what was happening at the hospital. Therefore, she didn’t know that while she was away from the hospital, Gu En took the chance to speak ill of her in front of He Teng, veiling her spite with cordiality.

Anyone who heard Gu En’s rant would only think that He Zhilan was a capricious and flirtatious woman.

Right now, for He Zhilan, it was also a time of continuous bad news.

The Tan family went to great lengths for He Zhilan. But, as they weren’t members of the government or military, they failed to access any information or reach any of the military officials.

In order to find news about Lan Lin’s parents, Tan Heshu had to travel across many cities, exhausting various personal connections. He did receive news about Lan Lin’s parents, but unfortunately, it was not good news.

"Lan Lin’s mother, she divorced Lan Lin’s father and left the country not long after Lan Lin’s death. Unable to accept that her only son was cruelly murdered as a result of his father’s complication, she chose to move somewhere without any familiar faces, avoiding any ties to her previous life. She didn’t inform anyone of her whereabouts, so there was no news. As for Lan Lin’s father, he sacrificed his life on a mission a few years after the divorce. My brother tried to find other family members of Lan Lin by searching records of martyrs, but as you know, to protect the safety and privacy of military families, their records are kept confidential. There’s no way people like us can get access."
