Story: Stars In His Eyes

After arriving at the hospital, He Zhilan learned that not only had Lin Chan come, but Xing Ye was also there, talking to He Teng in the ward.

"Sister-in-law." Seeing He Zhilan, Xing Ye called out brightly, apparently, due to his relationship with He Teng, there wasn’t the slightest awkwardness in him calling her "sister-in-law".

Instead, He Zhilan felt a bit awkward when Xing Ye called her that way, even though it wasn’t the first time he had addressed her like this.

"Brother-in-law Zhilan~ you may not recognize me?" Lin Chan grinned and greeted with a louder voice than Xing Ye’s "sister-in-law". The implication was clear: he wanted to outdo Xing Ye.

He Zhilan saw clear disdain for Lin Chan in Xing Ye’s eyes. She walked in, stood behind Xing Ye, and looked at the man on the hospital bed. He was undoubtedly a strong man. His complexion had greatly improved in just one day, which was a relief to He Zhilan.

He Teng knew that He Zhilan was watching him, but because he was in a conversation with Lin Chan, he didn’t react much and continued talking with Lin Chan.

Lin Chan was not entirely a stranger to He Teng.

During his early years in the army, Lin Chan would occasionally show up in the army, not for military training, but as a punishment for his misbehaviour.

Every time Lin Chan appeared in the army, there would be some troublesome incidents.

However, because they were not in the same regiment, He Teng had only heard about Lin Chan’s deeds and name but had never seen him personally.

So, Lin Chan’s name was almost forgotten.

"Chen Yun and others will also come later. Brothers have been eager to meet Zhilan’s husband. Everyone is dying to know the lucky guy who married our Zhilan!"

Speak of the devil, and he shall appear. Before Lin Chan could finish his words, Bian Xiulin led a few gentlemen into the room. They were all just off work and dressed impeccably.

The originally small and quiet ward suddenly became crowded and lively with their arrival.

Since it had been a long time since she had seen everyone, He Zhilan was also quite happy. She greeted everyone as they walked in. Unfortunately, there simply weren’t enough chairs in the ward for everyone to sit.

"No worries, Zhilan. We didn’t come to the hospital for a tea break. It’s okay to stand." Chen Yun waved his hand indifferently and then greeted the man on the bed, "So this is Zhilan’s husband, right? Nice, the young man looks quite energetic!"

Chen Yun’s words made everyone in the ward laugh out loud.

Lin Chan even scoffed, "Chen Yun, it’s not your fault for not being well-read.

It’s such a shame that your father gave you a name that represents both civil and military virtues.

Yet you can’t even compliment someone appropriately!

In my opinion, our brother-in-law Zhilan is handsome and dashing. .."

"Enough, do you think being ’dashing’ is a good phrase?

" Bian Xiulin gave Lin Chan a slap on the back of his head. With a smack, Lin Chan cried out in pain. Only then did Bian Xiulin turn to He Zhilan and ask with a smile, "Right, Zhilan? Your man is handsome enough, why does he need to be ’dashing’? "

Unable to hold back her amusement, He Zhilan chuckled and nodded under Bian Xiulin’s expectant gaze, agreeing with his words. However, the two terms Lin Chan used seemed to have little to do with He Teng.
