Chapter 292: Chapter 292: I Don’t Believe a Single Word She Says 3_1

He Zhilan finished speaking, but there was no response from He Teng, which puzzled her. Why was it that just within the day, he was fine when she left in the morning, but he wore a heavy expression when she returned in the late afternoon?

"Brother? What’s wrong?" He Zhilan, utterly confused, attempted to tug at the newspaper in He Teng’s hand, only to be met with a fierce glare.

Only then did He Teng put aside the newspaper he was holding. However, he had been wearing a heavy look on his face throughout the day since Gu En and Lan Li left.

"There’s a Zhou Hongjin at your school who’s pursuing you? You accepted his flowers and seemed quite happy?" It wasn’t Gu En’s words that had upset He Teng. As for Ding Long’s matter, He Zhilan had frankly told him everything. Although Gu En’s description was slightly different, Lin Deng had clarified it on behalf of He Zhilan. He Teng completely trusted that He Zhilan would not think twice about Ding Long.

What upset He Teng was that someone was pursuing his wife in school and he, her husband, wasn’t even aware!

He Zhilan, on the other hand, was startled by the unexpected questions from He Teng.

"I did accept the flowers from Zhou, the senior, but as nothing more than a gesture of innocent friendship and as his junior. I told him that I was married when he confessed his feelings for me for the first time. He didn’t believe me and thought I was lying to reject him, so he confessed to me a second time, and I reiterated very seriously that I was married. Brother, who told you all this?" He Zhilan feared that the slightest hesitation or ambiguity in her explanations would cause He Teng to become suspicious, so she confessed everything immediately.

Most importantly, she had to let He Teng know that she had revealed her marital status to her pursuer, which was a direct rejection. She didn’t have the slightest intention of betraying their marriage.

After listening, He Teng simply nodded but said nothing more. However, he answered Hu Zhilan’s question and informed her that Gu En had visited during the day.

"What did Gu En tell you?" He Zhilan had thought that Gu En would forget what she had said in the dormitory after a few days. But to her surprise, Miss Gu actually paid He Teng a visit.

"What she said to me is none of your concern. I don’t believe a single word she says." Finally, He Teng moved, picked up the lunchbox from the cabinet, glanced at the food inside, and said, "From now on, you must tell me about such incidents at school. I don’t want to hear about my wife’s affairs from others."

He Zhilan nodded vigorously, "I didn’t mean to hide it from you. I thought since I had rejected Zhou, and dealt with the matter myself, there was no need to tell you about it."

"Hmm." He Teng nodded, "In the future, talk to me more about what’s happening at school." He didn’t like the fact that he didn’t know what was happening with his own wife at her school.

He Zhilan breathed a sigh of relief only when He Teng showed not the slightest suspicion.

He Zhilan had no idea what Gu En had told He Teng during the day, how she had brought up Zhou Hongjin’s confession, or what words she used to describe it all. She was worried that Gu En, a person who did not like to explain things, might misconstrue a clear and pure matter as something ambiguous thereby putting unnecessary doubts in He Teng’s mind.
