Chapter 800: Chapter 800 Lin Deng and Gu En Book 4

"Dad, don’t worry, I’ll eat more so I can promise to give you a fair and chubby grandson in the future!" He Zhilan said this without blushing or skipping a beat, instantly amusing everyone at the table.

"Sister-in-law, aren’t you embarrassed at all?" He Dongxue stuck out her tongue at He Zhilan and pulled a funny face.

"Embarrassment won’t fill you up, will it?" He Zhilan chuckled. Ever since she divorced He Teng, the notion of embarrassment had been swallowed up by a dog; why should she feel ashamed? Everyone sitting here was family, no one would mock her for being shameless.

At the He Family, laughter abounded at this moment, but at the Lan Family, Lin Deng was walking around like a soulless zombie. He did not return to the Lin Family, which was a pressure cooker for him, but instead went directly to the Lan Family.

Lan Li had also returned from the military and was staying at the Lan Family. Seeing Lin Deng, he said nothing and just let him in.

"Brother Lan Li." Lin Deng entered the door and called him in a low voice, proceeding inside, he said, "Brother Lan Li, do you have any alcohol? Have a drink with me."

"Is it about the engagement with Gu En?" Lan Li asked instead of answering, seeing Lin Deng like this, he also felt distressed. He knew, of course, all about Lin Deng being coerced into the engagement with Gu En and breaking up with his previous girlfriend.

"Troubled soul, if you’re feeling down, go sleep it off in the room. I need to visit the Gu Family." Lan Li warned him out of concern, "Lin Deng, don’t forget, you’re a soldier now. Tomorrow morning you have to return to the unit with me. If you get dead drunk tonight, be careful not to get disciplined."

Lin Deng nodded and found a room to go straight in without saying a word.

Seeing this, Lan Li knew Lin Deng would handle himself and left the house with keys to go directly to the Gu Family across the street.

It was summer break, and naturally, Gu En was at home. Entering, Lan Li asked the maid where Gu En was, and was told she was in the greenhouse, so he walked towards it.

"Brother Lan Li!" Seeing Lan Li, Gu En’s face lit up and she ran over to him, "Brother Lan Li when did you get back? Why didn’t I know? It’s great you’re stationed in the capital; you can come back often, and I get to see you a lot!"

"Gu En!" Lan Li took a few steps back, his face serious as he said, "Stand properly, I have something to talk to you about."

Once Gu En stood smilingly straight in front of him, Lan Li bluntly asked, "Why did you break up Lin Deng and his girlfriend? Why suddenly insist on getting engaged to Lin Deng? Gu En, don’t tell me you like Lin Deng, not that kind of romantic love. I have eyes, I can tell, you don’t have love for Lin Deng!"

"Brother Lan Li, did Lin Deng say something to you? Or did he ask you to come and persuade me to drop the idea of getting engaged?" Gu En’s smile vanished in an instant as if that smileful face was just a figment of Lan Li’s imagination a second ago. Now, her face was overcast, without a trace of joy, "It’s my business who I want to get engaged to! Anyway, I’ve graduated from university; it’s time to get married. Who isn’t it marrying to? Why can’t I marry Lin Deng?"

Gu En scoffed, "What do you mean I insisted on breaking up Lin Deng and his girlfriend? I didn’t put a knife to Lin Deng’s throat to force him to agree to the engagement. It was his own choice to abandon Jiang Biyun and be with me. Is he suffering? That’s his choice."
