Chapter 914: The Fifth Year of Chaos
He Dongxue got annoyed by Lin Chan several times and decided to ignore Lin Chan, turning to He Zhilan instead, "By the way, sister-in-law, the old master of the Gu Family was discharged from the hospital at noon today. The old man is so willful, he wouldn’t listen to persuasion, saying he didn’t want to spend New Year’s in the hospital."
"People, when they get old, always have things they insist on," Bian Muhe added. "However, the old master has been in good spirits these past couple of days and is recovering quite well. With some dietary restrictions and a relaxed mood, there shouldn’t be any problems."
Bian Muhe tried to comfort He Zhilan with his words. Seeing that He Zhilan didn’t respond, everyone understood her feelings. To her, the Gu Family was like a quagmire—too deep and too dangerous.
And for her, the people in that quagmire were the ones who smeared her at her brightest moment, bringing her despair, and were also the ones who caused her the greatest harm in this world.
After lunch, He Zhilan left the capital, carrying big and small packages back to the military base, getting ready to celebrate her first New Year since remarrying He Teng.
As usual, before the New Year, He Zhilan knitted a sweater for He Teng, a style with dark vertical stripes which looked particularly handsome on him.
"What about yours?" Seeing that everything He Zhilan took out was for him, He Teng said, "I usually wear training uniforms in the army, and there’s no occasion to wear so many clothes there. In the future, don’t buy for me, buy more for yourself!"
