Chapter 591: Chapter 591 Don’t Come Again 12_1

"Uh-oh! A pack of hungry she-wolves has arrived in the army!" He Zhilan muttered under her breath, only releasing He Teng after pulling him into the dining hall.

It seems the clamor about many people coveting He Teng wasn’t an exaggeration. However, "many" is an understatement. This wasn’t just a few—they were simply too many!

Upon arriving at the dining hall and seeing Gu En sitting with Lan Li, He Zhilan understood why Tang Tang appeared in the army. She sneered inwardly. Tang Tang claimed not to know Gu En very well last time but now not only was she bullying her and Chen Xiting with Gu En’s help, she even came to the army with Gu En.

He Teng didn’t know about Gu En joining the army, and seeing her in the canteen had caught him off guard. However, he didn’t show any distinct expression on his face. He simply walked past Gu En with He Zhilan, ignoring her.

On the other side, Gu En had noticed He Zhilan standing with He Teng early on. However, being in the army base and the fact that Lan Li stood right next to her, she couldn’t do much but ignore.

Nevertheless, Gu En was curious. Why did He Teng and He Zhilan divorce? Who proposed the divorce first? And more importantly, how come they still got along so well after their divorce?

Just a simple gesture of He Teng blocking her view of He Zhilan was enough for Gu En to realise that even with the divorce, He Teng still cared for He Zhilan.

"Strange. I haven’t seen my cousin Lan Li visit the army for a long time. Why did she suddenly come early in the morning today?"

As soon as they sat down, Niu Rang and Kang Xing hurried over, eyeballing Lan Li the entire time almost falling out of their chairs in the process.

"Mind your own business, quit gossiping like a good-for-nothing old woman!" He Teng reprimanded then urged them to sit down and eat their food. Then, he directed his attention to He Zhilan and asked, "When does your train leave?"

"Five twenty in the afternoon," He Zhilan replied, then she pursed her lips, "I hope Gu En and I aren’t on the same train. Brother, you should ask Lan Li this afternoon. If she is on the same train, I’ll take the one in the morning tomorrow. It won’t be a big deal to request half a day off from school tomorrow morning. Just the thought of being on the same train with Gu En for four to five hours scares me. I’m afraid she might pick a fight with me again, and without you with me this time, I wouldn’t be able to win."

"Pfft!" He Teng scoffed. It wasn’t clear whether he was mocking He Zhilan or Gu En, but he nodded and replied, "Whatever you say."

"Captain, why not take some time to teach sister-in-law some grappling and combat techniques? It would certainly be useful for her to have these skills while she’s in the capital. Although school might be a safe place for now, she’ll need to graduate eventually. At that point, having self-defense skills would surely give you peace of mind, wouldn’t it?"

After finishing his piece, Niu Rang cast an additional glance at He Zhilan and added, "And besides, sister-in-law is quite skinny. Some physical training would also be beneficial to her health. That would be nice."

Ignoring the sister-in-law title Niu Rang gave Zhilan, He Teng took his words into consideration. After a moment of contemplation, he agreed, "After we finish eating, change into something more comfortable. I’ll teach you a few practical moves that are easy to remember."
