Before He Zhilan could retort, Kang Xing unfolded half the page of the Fang Therapy Pavilion in front of He Teng and said, "Captain, look! Isn’t our little Zhilan gorgeous in this photo!

I even snatched this newspaper from someone else!

Just for Zhilan’s profile and this photo, I’ll have to preserve this newspaper well! "

He Teng took the newspaper from Kang Xing’s hand and glanced briefly at it.

He did not really read the content – what he was interested in was the photo of He Zhilan printed on it.

Zhilan in the photo, wearing an evening gown and standing in front of a microphone, seemed to be giving a speech.

There was a smaller photo of her toasting the guests with a champagne glass, with Lin Chan and Chen Yun next to her.

The rest of the photos were of the Lanteng Aroma Therapy Center and its products.

"Were you drinking that day?" He Teng focused only on this detail, "I remember you can’t drink."

He Zhilan quickly shook her head, "Lin Chan and the others know that I can’t drink. So, what I was drinking was not champagne, but a beverage that looked and smelled like one! Otherwise, I would probably have ended up passed out on the street after drinking for an entire night!"

"Focus on your studies. If there are any social obligations, make sure Lin Chan and the others accompany you. There should be at least one person around you, otherwise, I won’t feel at ease," He Teng instructed, "You can’t hold your liquor, so it’s best not to touch any alcohol. It’s good for your health too."

"Don’t worry! I promise! Moreover, I have no need for any socialization!" He Zhilan nodded cheerily, "Even if a knife were held to my neck, I wouldn’t touch a drop of alcohol!"

He Teng nodded, took his gaze away from He Zhilan, and handed the newspaper back to Kang Xing.

"Sister-in-law, you must take good care of yourself now that your business has grown so large, don’t let our Captain worry about you in the military!

" Kang Xing followed up with his words of caution, then immediately laughed, "Just thinking about how awesome Zhilan is makes me feel proud. After all, Zhilan is our Captain’s wife and sooner or later my sister-in-law! Captain, sister-in-law, do you know how hard I had to fight to get this newspaper? Everyone was waiting to see it, but once in my hands, I didn’t want to let go of it! "

Kang Xing’s address for He Zhilan switched so quickly, one moment it was ’little Zhilan’, and the next it was ’sister-in-law’!

As they chatted, they headed towards the dining hall.

There, Gu En and Tang Tang had already spotted them chatting at the gate, and overheard many people in the barracks discussing He Zhilan.

Unsurprisingly, everyone spoke of He Zhilan in an admiring and praising tone.

Many even said that Zhilan, all dolled up, looked like a goddess in the newspaper.

"Psshh~" Gu En snorted disdainfully, "What self-employment, what perseverance, isn’t it all just sweet talk bought by He Zhilan with other men’s money!"

Gu En’s outburst wasn’t quiet, and with people all around, everyone suddenly fell silent, looking at Gu En in astonishment.

"What are you looking at? What’s there to see?" Gu En lowered his face and growled.

Seeing the situation, Tang Tang comforted Gu En and then added, "Exactly, a girl from a rural area, how did she get so much money? Negotiating cooperative ventures abroad, setting up plantations in S Province, buying houses and opening the Fang Therapy Pavilion, isn’t this all using other men’s money! "
