Chapter 478: Coming Through the Wind and Snow 4_1
With rushed steps, He Zhilan inadvertently ended up in Gu Family’s flower room. Much like Gu En had mentioned before, the flower room was filled with radiant roses, and many guests were chatting there.
He Zhilan didn’t know anyone from Gu Family and Lan Family, so, not wanting to be rude, she had to wait until Zhou Chenyue and the others had some free time to ask who were the members of the Gu and Lan family, then she could try to approach them.
After standing in the flower room for a while, He Zhilan worried that Zhou Chenyue and the rest might be looking for her, so she turned around to head back. However, as she passed a staircase, she suddenly heard Gu En’s voice. He seemed to be upstairs making a phone call, sounding flustered and angry, she even heard her name and Zhou Hongjin’s mentioned.
Driven by curiosity, He Zhilan went straight upstairs. But after getting to the upper floor, she looked around and found no one in sight. Just as she was about to head back downstairs, she noticed the door of the room behind her was open. Thinking Gu En was inside, she tip-toed over, lightly pushing the door open, she peeked inside before stepping in.
The room appeared to be a study, with rows of bookshelves behind an antique screen, filled to the brim with books neatly lined up. Behind the desk hung a calligraphy scroll, He Zhilan curiously walked up for a close look, and was instantly rooted to the spot.
Wishing Grandpa happiness as vast as the East Sea and longevity as enduring as the Southern Mountains.
The childish handwriting was clearly from a little girl just learning to write. What shocked He Zhilan even more was the three unnoticeably small characters at the lower-right corner of the calligraphy—Gu Zhilan.
Her name, absent for thirteen years, suddenly appeared before her eyes without any warning.
