He Teng had already packed up and, seeing He Zhilan wearing thin clothes and considering the chilly wind outside at this time, he took a light coat out from the luggage for He Zhilan to wear before leading her to get into the car arranged by Lin Chan to leave the hotel.

Lin Chan did not follow them into the car to leave. After all, he still needed to stay in the capital to take charge of the situation, but he had arranged reliable assistants for the two of them.

"Brother, where are we going now?" He Zhilan was genuinely scared and had not expected such news to be released suddenly, "Brother, do you think, who else would know about me and continue to hold a grudge to release such news?"

"Could it be Gu En?" He Teng could only think of this one possibility.

"Her? She’s so afraid of others finding out that I am Gu Zhilan and taking everything from her.

She has no reason to do this. You have to know, although she’s in prison now, the Gu Family has not given up on her.

If she releases the news that I am Gu Zhilan now, isn’t that like digging her own grave?

" He Zhilan thought of a phrase, "Suffer a loss to kill the enemy, she wouldn’t be foolish enough to do it, right? "

Thinking it over, He Teng found He Zhilan’s words made sense, but then, he truly could not think of anyone else who would do this. Such an action was clearly aimed at He Zhilan, pushing her into the limelight.

And He Teng was also unclear about who else, knowing He Zhilan’s identity, would do such a thing?

However, these thoughts were useless for He Teng at the moment. So he said to the driver, "Go to the closest place to the capital that has a train station."

"What are we going to the train station for?" He Zhilan didn’t understand.

"Let’s first go back to our hometown," He Teng said. "They probably won’t expect us to go back home at this time."

"But at this time, there might not necessarily be a direct train to our hometown," He Zhilan said. "Besides, if we go back to our hometown, you have to notify the military, right? You’ve been so busy recently, can you even go home? Isn’t there still the National Day military parade? I’ve heard people from the military dependents’ area saying that the army is the busiest at these times. "

"The army has so many people, it won’t miss me, He Teng," he patted his own shoulder and let He Zhilan rest on it while replying, "It’s better if there isn’t a direct train. We’ll just take a circuitous route home. That way, even if someone wants to check, it won’t be easy to track us."

By the time the two left the capital and arrived in a city with a train station, it was already daylight. The train station was bustling with people, and they were in luck to find a direct train ticket.

He Teng asked the driver to take care of He Zhilan, accepted a briefcase from the driver, and went to the side to call the military.

Sometimes, rumors are even more terrifying than a plague. It was just overnight, the sky only just began to brighten, but the news that the boss of Lanteng Company, He Zhilan, was the Gu Family’s daughter, Gu Zhilan, exploded in the circle like a depth charge.

Even the brigade commander, far away in the military, had heard of the rumor. When he received He Teng’s call, which was about requesting extended leave, the commander reprimanded He Teng fiercely.

"What the hell is going on? What’s with that rumor?

Also, where are you now? A bunch of people looking for you have even come to the military!

And your wife? Everyone’s looking for the two of you!

He Teng, you know this is a busy time, you say you want to ask for extended leave, I still have to be able to give it to you!

You were involved in the meetings in the capital these past two days, you should understand how important this matter is!

The military parade will soon enter the intense training phase, and you’re asking for leave at this time, how am I supposed to grant it to you? "
