Chapter 272 He Teng Promotion 8_1
The man in bed played dead without uttering a word. Regardless of how much Lin Chan spoke, he never opened his eyes nor acknowledged her. Once Lin Chan finished her one-woman show, he’d naturally be left in peace.
The pair heading for the hospital entrance was just as Lin Chan had said. Kang Xing really did keep He Zhilan laughing all the way. Even though Kang Xing was slightly older than He Zhilan, perhaps because boys mature later or maybe due to directly immersing himself in the all-men, straight-talking military before stepping into society, Kang Xing genuinely was simple-minded. His straightforward speech, sometimes mixed with local dialect jokes, kept people laughing out loud.
"Sister-in-law, I’m leaving~ After I leave, you must speak kindly of me in front of the squad leader~ I think the squad leader doesn’t like me anymore~" After a pause, Kang Xing winked and continued, "After I go back, I need to get Niu Rang to help analyze why the squad leader increasingly dislikes me! I’d thought because we rarely meet, the squad leader would be so moved to tears that he’d keep me in the hospital to accompany him overnight!"
Moved to tears?
As soon as He Zhilan applied the phrase to He Teng, even the thought of such a scenario sent chills down her spine. That image was unimaginably terrifying, okay?
Making He Teng tear-up? Wouldn’t it be more like him to bleed?
He Teng was a true man’s man, living by the principle that though men may bleed, they should never cry. If you want to see his tearful face, you are likely to wait until He Teng’s next life. Perhaps he becomes a sentimental woman then.
Nevertheless, seeing Kang Xing in such distress, He Zhilan still offered some comforting words, "He’s just like that, very thick-skinned. He doesn’t dislike you; he just doesn’t want your training to suffer because of him."
