Chapter 1015: The Lingering Nightmare That Lasts for Years 8
"After the parade, I can take a ten-day leave. We can go back to our hometown for a couple of days. It’s been a while since I last saw dad, and you must miss him too, right?" He Teng turned to look at He Zhilan as he spoke, seeing her nod, he said, "Dad must miss you too."
"Of course!" He Zhilan said proudly, "Dad only cares about me and Dongxue! It’s such a pity that Dongxue can’t manage to get time off work at the hospital. Otherwise, our whole family could go back and stay for a while, spend some time with dad, and also see how my second brother is doing. Even though we often talk on the phone, I know, like us, dad and my second brother would only share good news and hide their worries. We need to go back in person to be reassured."
Dr. Qin from the city took the train back to the capital that very afternoon. Picking her up was her old friend Zhou’s mother, who had been friends for many years, yet their personalities were surprisingly opposite. Dr. Qin herself preferred quietness, but Zhou’s mother was particularly lively.
"Did you see Zhilan?" As Zhou drove, although focusing on the road, she occasionally glanced at her friend beside her, "I liked that child the moment I first saw her, felt a very good vibe from her. I even did a fortune reading for her once. She had many struggles in her youth, but her path ahead should be broad, and she will live a long and happy life."
"Really? You got that right?" Dr. Qin chuckled lightly, "Your methods haven’t been lost to time, huh? Oh right, do you know who caused He Zhilan’s miscarriage?"
"Who else could it be? Our old acquaintance, daughter of the Lan Family, daughter-in-law of the Gu Family." Zhou’s mother shrugged, "You must remember Gu Hengyuan’s wife, right? It was me who introduced her to you back then. If only I had known her adopted daughter would nearly kill my son, I would have never meddled."
"What?" Dr. Qin had been overseas and was completely unaware of the recent events in the country. However, she did indeed know Gu mother, coincidentally, Gu mother had been her patient for about a decade or so.
