Chapter 603 He Teng’s Decision 4_1
"What eagle? What sparrow? I am He Zhilan."
"Zhilan, in the past, your time at the He Family was not happy, and it wasn’t until you reached the capital—this world that belongs to you—that you became a real, flesh-and-blood human being. You can’t deny it. This place is where you’ve been longing to be. Apart from the unexpected situation with Gu En, you are like a fish in water here in the capital. Zhilan, if I could go back to this time last year, I definitely wouldn’t have married you. I’ve trampled all over your life, and I’m sorry."
"Why? Brother? Why are you suddenly saying these things to me? Why are you suddenly trying to cut ties with me? Just because you suspect that I am Gu Zhilan?" He Zhilan choked, "But even if I am Gu Zhilan, so what? If I’m not, so what? Brother, do you know how much I hate the surname Gu? Can you understand that I wasn’t unhappy at the He family, but that I was foolish, too naive, letting ignorance blind my own heart. Brother, do you not want me anymore? Were all the things you said before just lies? Telling me that I would always be the daughter of the He family, your sister, was all of that a lie?"
"Zhilan! I, He Teng, never lie to people. You will always be the daughter of the He family, no matter where you are. As long as you need it, you will always be my, He Teng’s, sister. No matter how the world changes in capital, always remember, I won’t make any choices. I will just always stand behind you, supporting you with my limited ability. Do you understand?"
"I don’t understand! All I know is that you don’t want me!" He Zhilan yelled, "I am not Gu Zhilan! Nor am I the so-called eagle you talk about! I am He Zhilan, always just He Zhilan!"
Amid her sobs, He Zhilan hung up the phone. If she had known that He Teng would say these things, she would rather not have made this call and let He Teng wait for her in his office all night!
So, is it just like this? The Gu Family, is it indeed the nightmare of her life, He Zhilan?
