Chapter 1847: Willing to Treat Each Other with True Feelings 60
He Zhilan’s car drove away, and it was only then that Lan Li came to his senses and got into his own car, following the route of He Zhilan towards the He Family residence.
After the revelation that He Zhilan was actually Gu Zhilan, the person who most dreaded facing He Zhilan, apart from the members of the Gu Family, was Lan Li.
Lan Li had witnessed Gu Zhilan getting lost with indifference, which led to the separation of the Gu Family, and subsequently the series of tragic events that followed.
Since He Zhilan arrived in the capital, Lan Li had repeatedly hurt He Zhilan with cutting and harsh words.
Therefore, Lan Li never imagined that there would be a day when He Zhilan would actually pay him any attention, or that He Zhilan would acknowledge him as Little Tuanyuan’s uncle.
On the way back to the He Family’s residence, neither He Zhilan nor Gu Hengyuan and Madam Gu, seated in the back, spoke a word, until the car stopped at the He Family’s entrance when He Zhilan finally said, "We’re here, let’s get out of the car."
Gu Hengyuan nodded, supported his wife as they got out of the car, and after taking a couple of steps, they saw some people standing at the entrance of the He Family residence.
The current He Family home had been purchased by He Da after his engagement to Chen Ning, situated in a rather quiet area in the capital. It was a villa district, and the house was much larger than the one He Da had lived in alone previously. Therefore, even with many guests attending today’s birthday celebration for Little Tuanyuan, this place didn’t feel cramped at all.
"Grandpa! Grandma!"
Little Tuanyuan was in the crowd. Upon hearing the voices, he squeezed past the adults in front of him to take a look, and was immediately stunned!
Rubbing his eyes to ensure he wasn’t seeing wrong, he set down the gift he had just received and ran straight towards the two elders, hugging Gu Hengyuan’s leg with one hand and Madam Gu’s leg with the other, and looked up at them, calling out once more, "It’s really Grandpa and Grandma! Oh my god! My birthday wish came true!"
"Hmph!" He Zhilan, feeling ignored by her own son, let out a dissatisfied grunt to catch his attention.
Little Tuanyuan smiled at He Zhilan, showing a captivating and irresistible smile, "Thank you, Mom! I love Mom the most! More than Dad! Mom is the best and most beautiful mom in the world! Also, the kindest mom!"
He Zhilan’s mouth twitched slightly at the corner. It had to be said, her son’s talent for flattery was definitely inherited from her. Whenever she needed something from He Teng, compliments were thrown out freely, just like Little Tuanyuan now, and listening made one feel toothache.
"Good that you know!" He Zhilan replied, not saying much else, and started walking inside.
He Father noticed He Zhilan’s red eyes, and raised his hand to pat her head in silent comfort, "Good girl."
"Dad is still the best, I’ll always be your darling daughter~" He Zhilan coquettishly clung to He Father for quite a bit before finally finding solace in him. Then He Father urged He Zhilan inside, while he went to receive the in-laws.
He Zhilan entered the house, greeted everyone briefly, and then went to find He Teng. Knowing he was upstairs talking with Xing Ye and the others, she went upstairs, and happened to encounter people coming down after their conversation at the staircase.
"Is my brother still inside the study?" He Zhilan, not seeing He Teng, asked.
"Yeah." Chen Yun responded, giving He Zhilan a meaningful look and a subtle smile, "Finally ready to embrace everyone?"
"Get lost!" He Zhilan gave Chen Yun a sideways glance, walked a few steps, and directly opened the study door to enter.
He Teng was inside organizing things, and upon hearing the sound at the door, raised his head to take a look, "Back already?"
