He Zhilan gave an embarrassed smile, knowing that Gu En had misunderstood Lan Li's command of keeping an eye on her.
He Zhilan would bet that Lan Li's objective was not to have Gu En take care of her, but to keep a close watch on her, preventing her from interacting with people Lan Li deemed inappropriate, like male classmates, for instance.

He Zhilan returned to the upper berth, Gu En's hummed song in her ears while he tried on clothes, and put on makeup in front of the full-length mirror. It was clear he was planning to go out tonight.
For her part? Her mind was filled with thoughts of Gu En, Lan Li, and the matters regarding the Gu and Lan families.
Could it really be such a coincidence, that she had encountered people from the Gu and Lan family, who were complete strangers to her?
