Chapter 524: Chapter 524: Payback Life 19_1

"Enough!"

He Zhilan, lying on the hospital bed, could no longer bear it. She mustered up all her strength to yell, "Major Gu! You Gu Family have won! I agree to drop the charges, are you satisfied now? Now, get out! From now on, don’t let me see any of you from the Gu family. Don’t let your faces sully my sight."

Lin Chan was stunned by He Zhilan’s outburst, he had been speaking out of anger without thinking rationally.

The major hadn’t expected that while he was arguing with Lin Chan, He Zhilan who hadn’t uttered a word suddenly agreed to compromise. He was taken aback, and realized upon reflection that she must have done it to avoid burdening Lin Chan.

"Thank you, classmate He." Genuine gratitude filled Major Gu’s heart. He gave a deep look to the girl on the hospital bed and slightly bowed, in the most formal and serious manner, to express his thanks.

"Get out." He Zhilan closed her eyes, tears streaming down like a dam breaking loose. "I will never forgive you in my lifetime. I vow to make you regret one day! Regret what you’ve done to me today!"

Major Gu shuddered slightly. In the end, he repressed his sigh. He saw the pale face filled with despair and hatred. Without uttering a word, he turned around and left the ward.

"Lin Chan, please tell Chen Yun to drop the charges." With this single sentence, He Zhilan exhausted all her energy. "What I owe the Gu family, I should repay. They gave me a life back then, and today, I give it back to them. From now on, I no longer owe them. From now on, I can hate them to my heart’s content."

"What do you mean?" Lin Chan looked at He Zhilan tight-lipped, not quite understanding her words. "Sister, you didn’t have to compromise, I, Lin Chan, fear nothing!"

"Lin Chan, do you know how much I missed them these thirteen years? As much as I missed them, that’s how much I hate them now! I am clearly their daughter, yet they kept saying in front of me that they only have one daughter, Gu En. They begged me, threatened me for someone who hurt me. Lin Chan, what about me? Am I just a puppet to them, to be wanted or discarded?"

Tears fell uncontrollably, unstoppable like a broken necklace. The void in her heart was like a flood sweeping through, filled with pain and hatred.

"For thirteen years, how hard did I try to find them? I used every means to find them, enduring humiliation after humiliation. What did I get in return? Their callous words, their contempt for me, and their disgusted looks. For thirteen years, I thought they missed me as much as I missed them, but what about reality?"

He Zhilan broke into tears. "Countless times I have run to the road out of the village, filled with hope looking for familiar faces. I always hoped they were there, that they would come to find me. The world is so big, yet I told myself that once I grew up, once I arrived in the capital, I would find my loved ones. But what was the reality? When I was bravely facing the icy wind and snow, waiting for them, they were having a joyful reunion with Gu En. When I finally stepped into the Gu household, all I received were reprimands and condemning eyes, which made me almost hate myself."
