Stars In His Eyes

Chapter 1846: Sincere Feelings, Mutual Treatment 59

He Zhilan spoke and then took the lead to walk out. To be honest, she was a bit embarrassed now. Thinking about it, at her age, crying in front of so many people was quite shameful.

"Lan Li, catch up with Zhilan and tell her I’ll go with her dad to change clothes, tell her to wait!" Mrs. Gu originally wanted to go out just like that. But when she saw that her husband was still wearing the nursing home’s patient uniform, she spoke up, adding, "Go and call Xing Ye and Chen Yun, inform them, and let them talk to the head of the nursing home."

After all, Gu Hengyuan was not an ordinary patient but was receiving medical parole, so it wasn’t just a simple matter of being able to leave; he had to inform the person in charge here.

Lan Li nodded in agreement and then stepped out.

The two young people walked out first, and only then did Mrs. Gu and Gu Hengyuan return to the ward.

However, as soon as they entered the ward, they couldn’t help but look at each other. Seeing the other’s red eyes, Gu Hengyuan said, "Zhilan has always been soft-hearted, with sharp words but a soft heart. She’s been like this since she was little."

"Yes, when she was a child, if anyone in the courtyard made her angry, she’d pretend to be very angry and unforgiving. But as soon as someone acted pitiful, she’d immediately soften up and even comfort others gently." Mrs. Gu nodded and then urged Gu Hengyuan to change his clothes.

"What do you think if I wear a black suit?" Gu Hengyuan asked, "I should look quite spirited, right?"

Before Mrs. Gu could answer, he shook his head and said, "Forget it, wearing a black suit is too dull. What if it scares Little Tuanyuan? I’d better wear my Zhongshan suit! Didn’t you just buy me a Zhongshan suit the other day? I’ll wear that one. It’s not dull, the color is just right, and I shouldn’t look too rigid, right?"

Mrs. Gu couldn’t help but laugh, "You weren’t even this nervous about what to wear on our first date, were you?"

Gu Hengyuan paused, then smiled, "We’ve known each other since we were little, it’s different! Besides, back then, I mostly wore military uniforms, you’ve seen all my regular clothes."

At that time, Gu Hengyuan was devoted to his military duties, and the few sets of regular clothes in his wardrobe were either prepared by his mother or Mrs. Gu. One could even say that Mrs. Gu was more familiar with his wardrobe than he was.

Worried that He Zhilan might get impatient waiting downstairs, Gu Hengyuan quickly changed his clothes. During that time, Mrs. Gu also tidied up her own clothes and hair, and fifteen minutes later, the two of them went out the door.

"Aunt, Uncle, the nursing home has been informed, you can get in the car." Lan Li said to them when he saw them.

"Alright!" Mrs. Gu nodded in response, and then she and Gu Hengyuan got into He Zhilan’s car one after the other. He Zhilan was already in the car, sitting in the driver’s seat waiting for them. But when they got in, He Zhilan had her head down, and they couldn’t see her expression, so they didn’t know if she was impatient.

"Lan Li, what about you?" Mrs. Gu asked upon noticing that Lan Li was still standing outside.

Lan Li instinctively glanced at He Zhilan and shook his head, "You go ahead, I’ll head back to the base."

"If you have time, join us. Little Tuanyuan likes a lively atmosphere. After all, you are Little Tuanyuan’s uncle too." He Zhilan said a sentence and, without waiting for Lan Li to reply, started the car and drove off, leaving Lan Li standing there in a daze for a while, thinking he had misheard.
