Chapter 531: Chapter 531: Do Not Owe 7_1

"Chen Yun, I’ll kill you! That was the result of my five minutes’ effort, meant for Miss Zhilan. Are you really that shameless to eat it when you’re such a picky eater?!" Lin Chan said as he picked up a knife, intending to give Chen Yun a fright.

"What’s all the fuss about an apple? Let’s talk about the real issue here. Why would Zhilan suddenly decide to drop the case?" Chen Yun pushed Lin Chan away, promptly taking the seat he had just vacated. Looking at He Zhilan’s swollen eyes, which resembled walnuts, he asked, "Did Lin Chan bully you just now? Making you cry like this? Such pretty eyes aren’t meant for crying. Tell me what’s going through your mind about dropping the case."

Concerning this topic, Lin Chan was the most excited, "Guess who she is! If you guess correctly, I’ll be at your service for a month!"

"Have you gone mad?" Chen Yun glanced at Lin Chan, "He Teng’s wife. Do you think I have dementia and forget everything I see?"

"I knew you wouldn’t know! That makes me so happy" Lin Chan laughed heartily, "You do remember Miss Zhilan of the Gu Family, right? The one who bit my butt when we were kids! It’s her! Bet you can’t believe it! It’s been thirteen years and she suddenly appears before us again! She is Gu Zhilan!"

As Lin Chan expected, Chen Yun was directly baffled, "You must be kidding me? The young Miss Gu was chubby, nowhere nearly as pretty as He Teng’s wife. They just share the same name!"

"You’d be wise to believe!" Lin Chan relayed all the details about He Zhilan’s situation, including how the Gu family’s eldest was threatening Zhilan before her biological father, revealing the plea for Gu En in the process.

After listening, Chen Yun kept sighing at how mysterious the world’s fate is.

The young girl who was kidnapped and later returned to the capital could meet her childhood playmates again. However, none of them recognized each other.

"They treat Gu En’s daughter, a girl from who knows where, like a treasure, but do nothing when their real daughter is standing right in front of them. Well, the Gu family will regret it in the future." Chen Yun looked down on them and sneered coldly, "Zhilan, if they don’t want to acknowledge the truth, then let’s not. Why would you need such a family? You’ve said it yourself, you’ve even repaid them with your own life. What else is there to acknowledge? Rest assured, apart from Xing Ye, we won’t tell anyone else about this. How you want to live in the future, you still live the same way; we were your brothers when you were a child; we are now, and will be in the future!"

Chen Yun patted He Zhilan’s shoulder earnestly, "I have never felt this way for anyone else. It pains me to see you, you are so young, yet you’ve gone through so much. Things that even we feel heartbroken about. Don’t worry, wherever we are in the future, that place will become your home."

Previously, Chen Yun was nice to He Zhilan on Xing Ye and Lin Chan’s account, but now, he sincerely cared for her. Thinking back to how cute she was as a girl, how she evoked tenderness in people, and how she had to go through so many hardships as she grew up...

"Thank you." He Zhilan felt a surge of warmth in her heart, "I don’t know what good karma I’ve accumulated to deserve such friends."

When she first stayed alone in the capital, she was filled with longing, but also filled with ignorance and confusion. The appearance of Lin Chan brought her into his life, introducing her to this group of seemingly unruly friends, each of whom treated her exceptionally well. If not for them, she wouldn’t have been able to stay safely in the hospital this time.
