Chapter 353: 353 Exception Not to be Followed 3_1

He Zhilan pursed her lips, "My stay in the hospital has cost a lot of money. I’m sorry, brother. I’ll work hard to earn money during the winter break."

"You don’t have to worry about money. Everyone gets sick every now and then." He Teng didn’t blame He Zhilan for the cost of her hospitalization.

"Brother, you haven’t rested since last night. You should go back to school later. I can stay here by myself. If my fever is gone tomorrow, I can be discharged from the hospital. The hospital isn’t far from the school, I can take a bus back!" Although He Teng had not reproached her, He Zhilan still felt heartache. The He family was in dire need of money. Even for the sake of money, her relationship with Gu En had become strained.

"I can’t leave you alone in the hospital. It’s just one night, it doesn’t matter to me. During training in the military, it’s common for us to stay awake for days and nights." On this point, He Teng was quite confident. In terms of physical fitness, he had never lost to anyone. Not to mention training, when he was on duty, he was so focused that not even a fly landing on his nose would make him flinch.

"Can you be the same during your recovery as you usually are? But it’s good if you don’t go back. Stay with me tonight, sleep by my side. I feel more secure with you around. Otherwise, I’m always afraid that lunatic Gu En might show up unexpectedly!" Since He Zhilan couldn’t persuade He Teng to go back to school, she stopped trying. Thinking that He Teng could stay with her tonight, He Zhilan felt very happy. The ward was a single room, the bed was big enough. It could accommodate the two of them.

With He Teng there, she didn’t have to feel scared and lonely in the unfamiliar hospital.

At nine in the evening, the nurse, aware that He Teng intended to stay in the hospital, added a bed for him next to He Zhilan’s. Though they couldn’t share a bed as Zhilan had wished, knowing that He Teng was nearby, she rested well that night. When she woke up the next day, she felt refreshed and was finally discharged from the hospital with the doctor’s approval.

He Teng dropped He Zhilan off at the entrance of Capital University but did not go in with her. Even though it was still early, he had to rush back to the military school for his classes.

"Brother, tomorrow is the weekend, I’ll come to visit you at your school!" He Zhilan waved goodbye to He Teng.

"Okay, go on in." He Teng nodded, watching He Zhilan’s retreating figure disappear before he started hobbling towards the military school with his crutch.

He Zhilan went back to her dormitory first and took a shower and changed her clothes. When she was about to leave, she saw that Gu En hadn’t come back to the dormitory, nor had she moved her belongings, it seemed that Gu En hadn’t applied to change her dormitory.

Jiang Biyun and Chen Xiting both wanted to ask He Zhilan about what had happened as soon as she came back. After He Zhilan had freshened up, they finally couldn’t endure any longer, left the dormitory with her and started questioning her on their way to the cafeteria.

"After you were hospitalized, Chen Xiting and I wanted to visit you. But Gu En said she was going, and would arrange someone to take care of you. She told us not to run around at night, so we didn’t go. But when Gu En came back to the dormitory two nights ago, Chen Xiting and I sensed something was wrong."

"Gu En came back?" He Zhilan was taken aback, "What about last night?"
