"It's not that Zhou Hongjin is purchasing He Zhilan, he genuinely loves her. What I mentioned were side benefits. They're just small fry for you. Moreover, if you become successful, it would also benefit the Zhou family..."
"No need!" He Teng directly interrupted Gu En, "Please tell Zhou Hongjin on my behalf, both my sister He Zhilan and I came from a poor family. We cannot reach the elitist circle of the capital."
He Teng felt a hard to describe unease in his heart, a hint of dissatisfaction. That Zhilan had received love confessions and flowers at school yet she hadn't told him a single word about it bothered him.
"Zhou Hongjin is a very decisive person, if he insisted on being together with He Zhilan, the Zhou family wouldn't be able to stop them. Besides, I'm here, right? I can help He Zhilan. At the end of the day, He Zhilan is my roommate!" Gu En misunderstood, thinking He Teng was implying a person of He Zhilan's status would not be welcomed by the affluent Zhou family.
