"No! Brother! I'm not compromising, I don't feel hard done by. Brother, being able to marry you, I'm really happy!" Zhilan quickly shook her head, her heart felt a wave of panic. This version of He Teng, compared to the one who snapped at her, scared her even more.
"Zhilan, if you really feel that way, then don't go to the Gu family patriarch's birthday banquet. It's not a place for us. If you're competitive, whatever you want, I, He Teng, will work my hardest to earn it, to give you a better life. I'll also work hard in the military so I can be worthy of you, a high-achieving student from Capital University."

"Brother, I didn't ask for anything, I just..." Zhilan bit her lip. She just wanted desperately to find her parents,
Thirteen years. That longing had already become a conviction.
