"It's him, isn't it? The head of the Mo family!"
Gu Shengling didn't answer. Zhu Qinghan raised her head and looked at him: "I won't go with you. Doesn't he know why the Yin family killed me? He's a coward in front of Yin Xueli. I'd rather die than accept his help."
"How can you not distinguish between friend and foe? The Yin family is here to take your life. Only your father, Mo Zhen, can protect you now."
“He is not my father, I have no father!” Zhu Qinghan’s eyes reddened, her expression icy cold.
Seeing that Zhu Qinghan was unusually agitated, Bai Qianmo said calmly, "Senior Brother, you should go out first. I'll talk to Miss Zhu."
Zhu Qinghan remained unmoved by either soft or hard tactics, leaving Gu Shengling with no choice but to get up and leave.
Only Bai Qianmo and Zhu Qinghan remained in the ward.
Bai Qianmo glanced at Zhu Qinghan and suddenly laughed.
Zhu Qinghan stared warily at Bai Qianmo: "Miss Bai, although you saved me, I owe you my life and I will repay you. But if you also want me to leave with your senior brother, I advise you not to say anything more."
"You like Ji Cong'an?"
Zhu Qinghan shuddered, a strange and flustered expression appearing on her face.
"Miss Bai, you...you're talking nonsense, I didn't."
"Your eyes are much more honest than your mouth. There's nothing wrong with liking someone, so why don't you dare admit it?"
Zhu Qinghan lowered her head like an ostrich, remaining silent.
“How could I be worthy of someone like Young Master An? Besides, in his eyes I am just a man, and he would never like me.”
“He could never like you if you’re a man, but you’re not. Judging from Ji Cong’an’s anxious and flustered manner when you were kidnapped, he still cares about you a lot.”
That's just because we're friends.
"Maybe so. The difference between friends and boyfriends/girlfriends is just two words."
Bai Qianmo's words suddenly gave Zhu Qinghan a glimmer of hope. Could she really do it?
From a young age, she was often mocked by her classmates for being an illegitimate child. Although she did not understand the meaning of being an illegitimate child, she knew that she was different from her classmates.
Others have fathers and mothers, but she only has a mother.
As she grew older, a master suddenly appeared in her life. The master taught her many things, and more importantly, he seemed to make up for her longing for a father.
She met Ji Cong'an while fleeing to China. He took her from the roadside after she had been starving for three days and brought her to KN. He always seemed to have a bad temper, but if his friends or KN members suffered even the slightest injustice, he would immediately rush to protect them.
She didn't know when it started, but that roguish face would often appear in her eyes and in her mind.
Therefore, she stayed in China not only because the Yin family's influence was absent, but more importantly, because there were people she wanted to stay with.
Bai Qianmo understood Zhu Qinghan's thoughts.
On some level, Zhu Qinghan and she share some common ground.
She initially came to China to find Zhao Guofeng, but after meeting Gu Jueye, she found herself deeply attached to the country.
As a girl herself, Zhu Qinghan's inner thoughts should be similar to hers, so whether or not to leave China ultimately depends on her choice.
Bai Qianmo left the ward and told Gu Shengling her thoughts.
Gu Shengling frowned: "If I don't take her back, my mission will be considered a failure. Junior Sister, why don't you persuade her to return to Y Country first? After Mo Zhen appeases Yin Xueli, no one will stop her from coming back if she wants to."
Bai Qianmo was silent for a moment: "I will convey your message to her, but whether she returns to Y Country in the end is up to her."
"Don't worry, your senior brother isn't the type to force people to do things."
After calming Gu Shenglin down, Bai Qianmo called Gu Jingyu and asked him to see if he could arrange a room for Gu Shenglin in the hospital so that he could be admitted as a patient and better protect Zhu Qinghan.
Gu Jingyu quickly called back, saying that the ward opposite Zhu Qinghan's was empty and that Gu Shenglin could be admitted to the hospital.
After making arrangements here, Bai Qianmo went straight back to Tengyue.
