Chapter 674: Chapter 674 Brother, I’ll Take You Home 8_1
He Da explained to He Zhilan why the people she was asking for help all ran away. The locals knew very well that the police wouldn’t deal with such matters, and they were powerless too. Even if they intervened, it was uncertain whether it would make any difference. In the end, they would only bring revenge on themselves from these ruthless people.
"What about Bono and his team?" He Zhilan asked with surprise. She couldn’t believe that this city, which held so much of her childhood memories, had such a dark side. "Bring Bono and his team here, I want to ask how they finally handled this."
He Da agreed and got up, limping out the door to call the people waiting outside into He Zhilan’s hospital room.
On hearing He Zhilan’s enquiry, Bono didn’t hide anything. "The police suggested we settle it with money, but we didn’t agree. We’ve got the embassy involved, and we are confident they will deliver justice. It’s ridiculous that we, who fought off the bad guys and helped the victims, have to pay the criminals."
Afterwards, Bono reassured He Zhilan and He Da to rest and recover from their injuries in the hospital, assuring them that he would handle everything.
Once Bono and his team left, He Zhilan sighed. Before her vacation, from Xing Ye’s tone when she mentioned coming to C Province, it didn’t seem like it was within Xing Ye’s control. Thus, if she had called Xing Ye for help, she might have exposed Xing Ye’s covert operations. As a result, she couldn’t selfishly put her own problems ahead, risking the collapse of Xing Ye’s years of preparation, for she understood in certain situations, a single move could change the entire course of events.
Therefore, He Zhilan could only hope for the embassy, which Bono mentioned, to intervene and resolve the issue. Regardless of the situation, she was determined to bring He Da back home.
Seeing her long-lost relative again brought her immense relief. Even though He Da was tired, he refused to leave He Zhilan’s hospital room. Seeing He Zhilan furrowing her brow in deep thought, he changed the topic, hoping to alleviate her worries. "How has everything been at home these years? And you? Why did you come to C Province? Did you get into university? How about Dongxue? Is she preparing for the college entrance exam? Is Dad in good health?"
"Everything is fine at home. I got into Capital University last year. Bono and his friends are friends of my professor. I came here to work as their translator, so I came to C Province alone with them. Dongxue also took her college entrance exam this year. Before I came to C Province, she received her admission notice from Capital’s first military school. We’ll have two soldiers in our family soon! By the way, our eldest brother is doing well in the military too. He’s been promoted and is now a Lieutenant in charge of a unit. Everyone says he has a bright future. Also, our second brother, I married him last summer vacation. So, you should start calling me sister-in-law!"
"You got married?" He Da was shocked but then showed a smile of delight. "You really got married? That’s great! However, even if you married our eldest brother, you’re still my sister in my eyes. I won’t call you sister-in-law!"
He Zhilan laughingly said, "Suit yourself, I divorced your brother earlier this year, but our father doesn’t know. Don’t blab once we’re back home. At home, just act as if you don’t know we’re divorced. After all, I will remarry your elder brother sooner or later, waiting for him to give in!"
"Divorced? You’ve barely been married for half a year, why did you divorce?" The first thing that came to He Da’s mind was, "Did he bully you?"
