Chapter 970: Chapter 970: Her Oddness 6
Gu En has always been a snob, and her few family mbers haven’t wronged her—in the ard forces, apart from greeting the colonel, if soone else greeted her, she might not even respond.
To tell the truth, with such an attitude, if she carried the identity of the Gu Family’s wealthy daughter, people compelled by her aura had no choice but to accept her arrogance. Who else could be the daughter of the Gu Family and the Little Princess of the capital?
But once her identity as an adopted daughter was exposed, those whom she had previously looked down upon couldn’t help but fall into the well and ridicule her.
Even Hen Cailuan, who doesn’t like gossiping, found it quite enjoyable. Touching her always expressionless face, Hen Cailuan laughed, “Who would have thought you could listen to such an interesting story in such a manner? You are really starting to take after your brother He Mutou!”
“Sister Cailuan~” He Zhilan helplessly curled her lips, “What did I listen to it as?” God knows how happy He Zhilan was to find out Gu En was going to prison.
For the sake of protecting what she thought belonged to her, Gu En did so many unjust things, yet in the end, wasn’t she still kicked away by the Gu Family to prevent her from dragging them down?
To be honest, He Zhilan felt quite relieved by Gu En’s downfall.
However, thinking of Niu Rang’s sacrifice and Elder Master Gu’s passing, He Zhilan felt that Gu En’s misery still wasn’t enough.
Can spending a few years in prison compensate for Xiaojia’s lifelong happiness? Can it bring back Niu Rang’s life?
Clearly, it cannot.
But for now, other than letting Gu En serve ti in prison, there wasn’t much else Xing Ye and the others could do.
Upon reaching the city, He Zhilan separated from Hen Cailuan. Hen Cailuan headed to the market, and He Zhilan went to work.
“Zhilan’s here?” Seeing He Zhilan, Wang Juan greeted her, “It’s not busy here with work recently, I thought you might stay ho today and spend ti with your son, Baobei.”
Before He Zhilan could reply, Wang Juan continued, “In a few days, Sister Lin and a few others might co back for a visit, then we can all gather sowhere! Make sure to free up so ti, we can’t have you missing every ti we get together! Don’t worry, no drinking, just eating.”
“Sure.” He Zhilan nodded, “My baby is very well-behaved, I don’t need to be by his side all the ti.”
“Then it’s settled!” Seeing He Zhilan agree, Wang Juan nodded, gathered everyone to sit down, and started delegating work, “Currently, we only have these tasks left. If we finish in two days and no new work cos in, then we can take a break. After Sister Lin cos back, who knows, we might even be able to join her for a couple of days in the capital. Then, we can let Sister Lin reward us, the hidden heroes behind the scenes.”
With Wang Juan’s words, everyone beca exceedingly excited.
In the evening after work, when He Zhilan returned to the ard forces, she felt that the atmosphere was sowhat different. When she got ho, she found out that Commander Gu and Mrs. Gu had arrived at the base earlier than expected.
“Tonight, Commander Gu and Mrs. Gu are dining in the ss hall. If you don’t want to go, just stay at ho. I should be back around eight,” knowing that He Zhilan was reluctant to et the Gu Family, He Teng had to attend the dinner at the ss hall, but he didn’t ask He Zhilan to accompany him.
“Commander Gu and Mrs. Gu will probably stay at the base for two days, just stay at ho if you have nothing to do.” After giving her instructions, He Teng then left the house sowhat relieved and headed to the ss hall.
