Stars In His Eyes-Chapter 1749: His Whole World Is Only You 82

At the start, He Teng was just a small squad leader, and He Zhilan had no connections in the political circle. However, later on, under Xing Ye’s support, He Teng firmly grasped the military sector, while He Zhilan and Lin Chan provided a lot of financial support to Xing Ye, helping him achieve political success. With the backing of the Xing Family and a few others, Xing Ye rose to power and finally took that position, becoming the youngest leader in the nation’s history.

"I know." Ding Long nodded.

"Where’s that girl now? Is she really married? Is she really suffering as you said? Living in the countryside?" Lin Chan found it hard to imagine, "You don’t know that girl, she was really picky about food when she was young, and she was afraid of pain. If she scraped her knee even a little, she’d cry until it healed and would follow us around asking us to blow on it to stop the pain, she was adorably childish."

Since Lin Chan asked, he genuinely wanted to know. Ding Long glanced at Lin Chan, who laughed and retorted, "What? You don’t trust me and Chen Yun? Don’t worry, if you tell us now, we won’t mention it to a third person, nor will we send anyone to break the news to her, lest the Gu Family finds out. Let me tell you, the demand you made to the Gu Family strikes a chord with me. That little bastard Gu En blamed me for killing a cat when he was ten, I’ve disliked her for a long time!"

Ding Long just made a sound, raised an eyebrow, and then said, "Gu Zhilan is actually He Teng’s child bride, do you know He Teng? He was Xing Ye’s squad leader when he was in the army."

"I know! I’ve seen this person a few times when I visited Xing Ye at the army. I’ve heard Xing Ye say that He Teng has a bright future, although he doesn’t talk much and is like a piece of wood, but he’s very capable and a good person. During those years in the army, Bian Xiulin often troubled Xing Ye, and it was He Teng who helped Xing Ye without saying a word." Speaking of this person, Lin Chan gave a thumbs up, and because he knew He Teng, he knew a little about He Teng’s family’s situation.

"Didn’t Xing Ye mention that He Teng’s family wasn’t well off? He had three younger siblings, one of whom was a child bride the family arranged for him when he joined the army, a biological sister, and a brother who went to work after graduating from junior high and lost contact for years. He Teng’s salary was mostly sent back home, and he was particularly frugal in the army." Chen Yun chimed in, without hiding his shock, said, "If Gu Zhilan is really He Teng’s child bride, that’s honestly unimaginably difficult life."

"Knowing this, I, Lin Chan, really have to admire your skills, Ding Long!" Lin Chan truly admired Ding Long, after all, no one in the courtyard had mentioned Gu Zhilan in the past ten years, except for a few who were in the know, no one knew that Gu En was not the biological child of the Gu Family. Everyone believed Gu En was the only daughter of the Gu Family.

Ding Long didn’t say anything, as he trusted Lin Chan and Chen Yun, so he shared Gu Zhilan’s story with them.

However, he still didn’t disclose how he came to know the information, and Lin Chan and Chen Yun sensibly refrained from asking further after hearing about Gu Zhilan.

After sending the two back, Ding Long couldn’t wait to return home.

He hadn’t seen his little wife all day and missed her dearly.

When Ding Long entered the house, Ding Jinshi was playing cards with Zhou Chenyue and Chen Shan with her big belly. Upon hearing the door open, Ding Jinshi turned to look towards the door. Once she confirmed it was Ding Long, her previously worried face immediately brightened with a smile. She waved her hand, signaling Ding Long eagerly, her tone somewhat proud, "My backup has arrived! Watch me crush you all!"
