Chapter 964: Termination of Adoption Relationship 9
He Zhilan pouted, "And to think you’re in the military, you can’t even protect your own wife."
He Teng snorted. He was a soldier, but when his wife insisted on rolling off him onto the ground, he really couldn’t protect her...
"Alright, stop fussing around and lie down." He Teng was also utterly helpless. After He Zhilan climbed back onto the bed, he held her tightly in his arms, "It’s late, get some rest."
"I want to sleep, but I just can’t." He Zhilan pouted, "Brother, why do people rush to investigate the Gu Family’s biological daughter the moment they hear Gu En is adopted? What business is it of theirs what happens in someone else’s family?"
"Getting ahead of the game. It’s not like the Gu Family is just any family." He Teng obviously understood why they were so eager to find the Gu Family’s biological daughter; there were many who kept their eyes on the Gu Family’s good fortunes, and many who watched the Gu Family hoping for their downfall.
So, at this time, He Zhilan’s true identity absolutely must not be known to outsiders; otherwise, she would fall into endless danger.
"Go to sleep, didn’t you say you have to go to the translation agency for work tomorrow?" He Teng urged He Zhilan, who had her eyes wide open without a hint of sleepiness. Taking the palm-leaf fan from her hand, he gently fanned her.
He Zhilan muttered an acknowledgement quietly and didn’t speak again. She closed her eyes, lying on her side next to He Teng, her hand lightly resting on his robust waist. It was a hot day, and he slept with his back bare, so beneath her palm was the solid muscle of his build.
He Teng was an extremely patient man, fanning He Zhilan, he could persist until after she had fallen asleep before stopping.
