694: Chapter 694: Return to the Capital 3_1 694: Chapter 694: Return to the Capital 3_1 She didn’t voice her concerns because she didn’t want He Dongxue to worry.
He Dongxue had just arrived in the capital and all she needed to do was focus on her studies.
For everything else, she could just forget about it.
As her sister-in-law and sister, she would naturally stand up for Dongxue and take care of everything for her.
Lin Chan first called a familiar hotel to book a room then took the two of them to drop off their luggage.
After that, he dialed a few numbers, assembling any friends in the capital who were idle.
He told them he’d brought He Zhilan along, suggesting they all gather for a al.
All but Bian Muhe, who was on duty at the hospital, showed up.
At a small restaurant near the hotel, a jovial atmosphere sprang up as the friends congregated.
It had been a long ti since they had seen Zhilan, and they greeted her with no less enthusiasm than heretofore.
“Why go back to the army?
It’s filled with tough guys, not much fun at all.
We wished you’d co back to the capital earlier.
We could have taken you around.
In this heat, find a cool spot, go fishing, swimming, enjoy the flowers, gaze at the moon.
It would have been so pleasant.” Qi Chengnan raised an eyebrow towards Zhilan.
“Zhilan is going back to the army?” Chen Yun paused, then comnted, “If I’m not mistaken, Gu En also joined the army.
Are you planning to go there and bicker with her?”
“She’s been rushing to the army quite frequently recently.” Zhilan grimaced, “She can go wherever she wants, so can I.
In the army, she dares not do anything.
What do I have to fear while she’s there?
In fact, I really want to et Gu En now!”
Speaking of Gu En, Zhilan rembered sothing she hadn’t shared with her friends yet, “It’s funny how things work out in this world, isn’t it?
You all know about the boy I brought back from C Province, right?”
“Of course!
It caused quite a stir.
The gang is still wanted by the police!
However, Xing Ye hit a snag, but the Gu Family and Shen Family reacted quickly.
The replacents swiftly took over.
Xing Ye only managed to infiltrate two individuals, but it wasn’t bad.
They could keep each other in check.
The city will surely thrive in the near future!” Chen Yun nodded in agreent.
“Before Gu En joined the Gu Family, she was a beggar, part of that gang.
Funnily enough, she was one of the beggars who lived across the street from my house when I was a child.
If my mory serves right, I even gave her money and food.
In the end, she joined the Gu Family and beca their daughter.
Who would’ve thought?
Everyone assud Gu En and I were the sa age, but in fact, Gu En is two years older than .
Her real na is Zhao Di, as for her surna, I have no idea.
She was sold to the gang’s boss by her biological parents.”
“Zhao Di?
Pfft~ what a crappy na!
It gives away the fact that her parents preferred sons over daughters.” Lin Chan chuckled, “So she’s actually two years older than you?
Weird.
Even if the Gu family adopted her and changed her na, was there really a need to alter her age?”
“The Gu Family sure is interesting, cherishing a forr beggar as if she were a treasure.
A girl like Gu En, ah no, Zhao Di, who’s lived on the streets since she was a kid, must’ve developed a thick skin.
She honed her survival skills while begging on the streets.” Chen Yun continued, “Have you noticed how cunning the street kids are?
They can tell at a glance who will give them money, who won’t, who’s scared of them, and who will curse them.”
