15: Chapter 15 I Want to Go to College 5_1 15: Chapter 15 I Want to Go to College 5_1 For these past ten years, He Zhilan has always been causing troubles in the He Family.
Therefore, she was irritated with He Zhilan and considered her ungrateful.
But unexpectedly, after all the fuss, it turned out He Zhilan had been kidnapped, which was why she hated the He family.
He Dongxue questioned whether she truly believed He Zhilan had learned her mistakes, feeling that she probably did.
He Zhilan had been part of the He family for twelve years.
During those twelve years, she had consistently stirred up trouble.
However, He Zhilan was a straightforward person.
Whenever she made someone displeased, she would be direct about it and never schemed.
Therefore, He Dongxue believed that He Zhilan wouldn’t be manipulative just to go to university.
Thinking about this, He Dongxue casually entered He Zhilan’s room with the homework in her hand and then shut the door.
Seeing He Zhilan with red-rimmed eyes, she said, “Don’t worry.
Father cherishes you deeply.
Being the first in our county to be admitted to Capital University, he will borrow money right after dinner.
He won’t let you quit studying.”
He Dongxue pulled He Zhilan, who was standing at the door, into the room, made her sit on a chair, and then asked, “He Zhilan, be honest with me, were you truly kidnapped?”
“Yes,” He Zhilan nodded.
“Those kidnappers deserve a thousand deaths!” He Dongxue cursed angrily.
“But, there’s something wrong with you too.
You were kidnapped, then taken into our family.
Why would you hold a grudge against us?
We aren’t kidnappers.
With father’s benevolent nature, if you had told him you were kidnapped as a child, he would certainly have tried every means to send you back to your biological parents.”
“I was naïve and filled with resentment when I was small, and I have been carrying it for more than a decade.
I was also anxious so I didn’t dare to tell much about my situation,” He Zhilan answered.
Yes, if she had told the truth to He Zhongguo when she was a child, he would definitely have put all efforts into sending her back.
However, what difference would it make?
Besides knowing her own name, she couldn’t remember where her home was.
Back then, communication wasn’t as advanced as it is now.
The country is so huge, how would she find where her home was?
“You’re right, back then, probably everyone in the world seemed like a villain to you,” He Dongxue nodded, putting down the homework in her hand, her eyes sparkling with curiosity, “Hey, what do you remember about your birth parents?
Where you used to live?
What was your home like?
Do you remember your parents’ names?”
“I do recall a little about my home and its surroundings, and I remember my name.
I also remember my father was a soldier, and the uncles in the neighborhood liked to call my father Little Gu,” He Zhilan revealed.
These were the only things she could still remember.
Even her parent’s faces had been blurred.
“What’s your name?” He Dongxue became even more intrigued.
“Gu Zhilan, my father’s surname is Gu, my mother’s given name is Lan,” He Zhilan replied.
“Tell me honestly, were you ever looking for your biological parents?” He Dongxue suddenly changed her tone.
He Zhilan looked up, “Would you believe if I said no?
I won’t even believe myself.
But what’s the use of thinking about searching?
I’ll never be able to find them anyway.”
If I were the one who was kidnapped, I’d also want to search,” He Dongxue nodded.
But in the next second, she shook her head, “No, what’s there to search!
Aren’t we good to you?
Doesn’t father love you?
You are even married to my brother.
You’ve said you want to live a good life with him, so why are you still looking for your parents?”
