Stars In His Eyes

"He Teng, actually, He Zhilan is really suffering inside. You are her husband, and sometimes, you should be more understanding of her. She might not voice many things, but that doesn’t mean she is oblivious about them." Jiang Biyun, eyes filled with tears and a heavy heart, had left for just a day, but upon her return, she found out that He Zhilan had been through a life and death situation. "You mistrust her, but in reality, she feels even worse than you do. When she returned to her dorm last night, she looked merely like a soulless figure. We all felt so heartbroken for her."

"Once He Zhilan wakes up, please don’t talk about divorce anymore. Whatever issue there may be, discuss it with her in a calm manner." Jiang Biyun advised, heavy emotion in her voice, "Zhilan truly treasures this marriage of yours."

"Divorce?" Lin Deng, listening from the side, was utterly taken aback. He, too, had only found out about He Zhilan’s marriage at Gu Mansion yesterday, but hadn’t known that He Teng was her husband. Now hearing Jiang Biyun’s words, he was somewhat astonished. "Isn’t Captain He He Zhilan’s brother? How could he be her husband?"

"I wouldn’t have kept it from you if I hadn’t been afraid you’d tell everything to that murderer, Gu En! You’ve always refused to believe that Gu En is that vile, so I didn’t dare tell you." Jiang Biyun explained.

Lin Deng’s expressions stiffened, but it wasn’t about blaming Jiang Biyun for keeping him in the dark, he just felt sorry for He Zhilan. "Why the divorce? Yesterday, He Zhilan was out of the blue telling Gu’s old master that she was married and openly declaring her love for her husband. Why divorce when there is love?"

Lin Deng’s words made the silent He Teng look up. "She said these things?"

"Yes, she talked with Old Master Gu alone." Lin Deng nodded, "Later, Gu’s Old Master repeated it, that’s when I discovered she was married, but I had no clue that Captain He would be her husband. I actually thought you two were biological siblings."

"She told Old Master Gu that she really loves her husband?" He Teng sounded somewhat astonished. He Zhilan had not only told the truth about her marriage when visiting the Gu Mansion, but she even told the Old Master Gu that she loved him, her husband?

What was the actual purpose of He Zhilan’s insistence on visiting the Gu Mansion?
