Chapter 291: Chapter 291: I Don’t Believe a Single Word She Says 2_1

"Go? Of course, I’m going!" Lin Chan replied with amusement, "Ding Jinshi and Ding Long’s engagement party, and knowing Ding Long’s usual sinister personality, he definitely wouldn’t invite Lan Li. So, if Lan Li can’t go, I must. I’ll even bring my camera to capture every detail. Then, I’ll develop the pictures and give them to Lan Li as a get-well gift when he’s discharged from the hospital!"

"You’re wickedly amusing!" Bian Xiulin cursed Lin Chan but couldn’t help laughing, "Deviously adorable, too!"

He Zhilan was also quite surprised. Just yesterday she heard about Ding Jinshi’s engagement, and today, Lin Chan and Bian Xiulin had already received invitations. Ding Long’s speed was truly impressive.

"Aren’t the Ding Family and Lan Family in the same circle? Won’t the Lan Family attend Ding Long and Ding Jinshi’s engagement?" He Zhilan wondered.

"Compared to the Lan Family, the Ding Family is insignificant. So, it’s only an engagement party. With the attitude of the Lan Family, they’ll probably just send a congratulatory gift, at most. Individuals as busy as the Lans would hardly attend such an affair. Not to mention, everyone knows that Ding Jinshi was once close to becoming a member of the Lan Family." Lin Chan explained, "Ding Jinshi had a great relationship with the Lan elders when she was dating Lan Li, and they all liked her quite a lot. They practically approved of her relationship with Lan Li. So, the Lan Family helped the Ding Family quite a bit back then. But now, with Ding Jinshi getting engaged to Ding Long, it would be incredibly awkward for the Lans to show up. I reckon they won’t even attend the wedding, at most they’ll just send someone junior to make a token appearance."

"I feel the same way," Bian Xiulin nodded. "However, I’m not going to the party. I’d rather get some extra sleep or spend more time with Xing Ye!"

"Suddenly, I feel pity for Xing Ye being stuck with you. Looks like he’s your last resort." Lin Chan laughed, "Bian Xiulin, be careful not to take Xing Ye for granted, or another woman might snatch him away."

Bian Xiulin pouted and tutted, showing clearly she didn’t take Lin Chan’s words to heart. That’s just the kind of person she was.

After their trip to the market, the three of them made their way to Bian Muhe’s apartment. Since Muhe was on duty at the hospital, the apartment was empty. Both He Zhilan and Bian Xiulin had keys. After dinner, they packed up leftovers for Muhe and He Teng before leaving the apartment.

Lin Chan only accompanied them till the hospital entrance without going in. Bian Xiulin took Muhe’s dinner to his office, while He Zhilan went to visit He Teng in his hospital room alone.

"Brother," He Zhilan called out to He Teng lying on the bed when she opened the door. He was getting better these days and was allowed to sit up for a short while. As she came in, she saw his hospital bed had been raised. He Teng was engrossed in reading a relatively old newspaper.

Hearing He Zhilan’s voice, He Teng looked up at the door, not immediately excited for the rice as she had imagined on her way. Instead, he glanced at her for a while before lowering his gaze back to the newspaper.

He Zhilan gently put the lunchbox she carried on the table, sat down next to the bed, and lightly tapped on He Teng’s hand holding the newspaper, "Brother, it’s time to eat! Haven’t you been craving rice for days? I steamed rice for you tonight. However, Muhe specifically instructed me to make it soft, so I added a little extra water."
