After finishing, Lin Chan pushed the supper towards He Dongxue and said, "Come on, the future wife of Lin Chan, have some supper, only then will you have the energy for work."

"Who is your future wife?" He Dongxue’s ears reddened as she glared at Lin Chan.

"Alright, alright, I misspoke. You are not my destined wife, I should say, the mother of my future child," Lin Chan’s lips curled, "or perhaps, my future partner?"

Seeing Lin Chan and He Dongxue bantering, Lan Li didn’t say anything and simply got up and walked away.

Lin Chan even ran to the door, waved his hand, and shouted towards Lan Li’s retreating figure, "Young Master Li, the General Military Hospital welcomes your return!"

"You really are quite something!" He Dongxue chuckled, "But today, it sounds quite adorable!"

Pleased with the praise, Lin Chan stood at the door and winked at He Dongxue. After making sure Lan Li really had left the hospital, he returned to his office with a more serious tone, "Did Lan Li come to you asking about your sister-in-law?"

"Yes, he was testing me, trying to get information out of me," He Dongxue nodded.

"There must be something that aroused his suspicions," Lin Chan said. "Just eat quietly, I’m going to call your brother and warn him to watch out for Lan Li."

After saying this, Lin Chan directly called the He Family home, told He Teng a few words, then hung up the phone and continued to accompany He Dongxue on the night shift.

On the other hand, after leaving the hospital, Lan Li found himself without any leads, because He Dongxue’s responses were flawless, so he thought, could it be that he guessed wrong?

Lan Li began to overrule all his previous suspicions because there really shouldn’t be such coincidences in the world.

How could Gu Family and Lan Family have given up on Gu Zhilan after years of despair only for her to coincidentally become the childhood bride of his, He Teng’s, comrade?

If that really were the case, would that not mean the gods were too playful?

And how could He Zhilan coincidentally turn out to be Gu En’s roommate?

When Lan Li returned, Mother Lan had not yet rested. Seeing Lan Li’s return, she asked, "How did it go?"

"Perhaps I guessed wrong, where in the world could there be such coincidences?" Lan Li shook his head.

"I think so too," Mother Lan really breathed a sigh of relief.

Lan Li sighed, "Have aunt and the others visited Xiao’en recently?"

"They’ve tried to see him a few times, but Xiao’en refuses to meet," Mother Lan shook her head and sighed, "Xiao’en’s temperament is too fierce.

For a girl, I don’t know if it’s a blessing or a curse.

Sometimes I still feel a bit dazed to this day.

How could such a sweet little girl grow up to be so ruthless?

Even to the extent of hiring someone to commit murder. "

The He family, after receiving Lin Chan’s call, felt their emotions weigh heavily.

He Teng was aware that Lan Li was returning to the capital’s military forces, but he hadn’t expected Lan Li to go to He Dongxue and probe based on the rumors he had heard upon returning.

However, considering what Lan Li had previously told him, He Teng was not surprised. Perhaps, in this world, the person who most wanted to find Gu Zhilan, might be Lan Li.

It had been over a decade since Gu Zhilan went missing. Lan Li had always borne the guilt he believed he had, like an unbreakable shackle locked around his heart, causing him to indulge Gu En all these years.

He Teng vaguely felt that perhaps, he needed to swiftly take He Zhilan away from the homeland to a place where no one could find them, to ensure He Zhilan’s future safety and a stable life.
