Chapter 556: 556

However, the phone call was one that He Zhilan had insisted he must make. Therefore, after reporting back to his unit, He Teng still called He Zhilan’s dorm, hearing the surprise in her voice without a hint of insincerety, He Teng thought that the call was worth it, she must be worried about him, right?

"How was it? Are you injured?" He Zhilan was worried that the mission He Teng and Lan Li were appointed to do would prove to be difficult, and naturally, she was concerned if He Teng had gotten hurt, "Are you alright?"

He Zhilan was worried that He Teng, with his suppressed emotions, would hide it if he were injured. He is just the type who would share his joy but not troubles.

"Eh, I’m fine." He Teng nodded, then continued, "The division has approved our divorce application. I don’t have time to process it, someone from the army is taking care of it."

He Teng’s tone was matter-of-fact, voice lacking any noticeable fluctuations.

"Hmm." He Zhilan faltered, answering softly after she came to her senses. She then joked in a light-hearted tone, "My brother is going to be a bachelor now. But, you can’t start flirting because of this! If the little ladies from the army’s troupe start to fancy you, you can’t go around batting your eyelids at them!"

"What nonsense are you talking? What flirting and batting my eyelids? I don’t know any of those people!" He Teng reproached He Zhilan in a soft voice.

"Pft—" He Zhilan giggled softly, she knew that He Teng would scold her when she said such things. She completely trusted He Teng, but she didn’t trust all the other women.

Now, He Teng was already a platoon leader, everyone in the army knew he had a bright future ahead, of course, there would be many people drawn to him. Especially now that she and He Teng were divorced, it was inevitable people might start to have designs on He Teng.

Just thinking about that Tang Tang from the troupe gave He Zhilan a deep impression. During the New Year’s, Tang Tang had come to her to inquire about He Teng, unfortunately, unknowing that she was He Teng’s wife, Tang Tang left with a heavy heart.

"Brother, I will visit you in the army next weekend!" He Zhilan said, "In a few days, I’ll buy the tickets and let you know in advance. Remember to pick me up from the train station!"

"Why are you coming to the army?" He Teng sounded surprised, "It’s not a holiday, and we are divorced."

"On non-holidays, I can’t visit my brother in the army? Does your army have such a regulation?" He Zhilan retorted, leaving He Teng at a loss for words.

According to He Teng, they were divorced, what was He Zhilan going to do in the army?

"Brother, that’s set. You just got back to the unit, you probably haven’t had dinner yet, right? Go have dinner quickly, I’ll tell you the time when I’ve booked the train ticket. I’m going for dinner with Chen Xiting now!" He Zhilan didn’t give He Teng a chance to stop her. After all, she was determined to visit He Teng’s unit regularly in the future. Hence, she needs to make more money to pay for the travel expenses.

After hanging up, He Zhilan’s face immediately brightened with a sunflower-like smile. At this moment, she thought that the trick Ya Dan taught her was quite useful, which was: when someone wants to deny you of something, you need to have a thicker skin.

"You’re going to your brother’s unit next weekend? Does that mean I’ll be alone?" Chen Xiting asked with a pitiful look, "Huang Cai and Wang Bingbin are going for work-study, and Jiang Biyun is on a date. You’re going to see a guy. I’ll be pitifully alone."
