“Girl?!” The moment the ward door swung open, Bai Lan saw Gu Mengmeng. She threw away the half-eaten apple in her hand and opened her arms, waiting for Gu Mengmeng to come in for a hug.
Snake was displeased but could do nothing about it, only releasing Gu Mengmeng, watching her pounce into someone else’s embrace.
“How are you feeling? Are you still hurting a lot?” Gu Mengmeng hugged Bai Lan, then pulled over the pillow for her to lie on properly.
Bai Lan laughed mindlessly, “I’m fine, but he…”
As she side-eyed Zhan Jin Cheng, Bai Lan’s cheeks turned red, “He accepted my proposal. Two years later, we will carry our graduation certificate in one hand and our marriage certificate in the other. I will wear my wedding dress the moment I remove my school uniform.”
“What?!” Gu Mengmeng was dumbfounded, completely out of it.
Bai Lan giggled, “Sorry girl, I might have to abandon you. This man is too foolish, if I don’t watch him more closely, he would be abducted by someone else, so… you can understand me right? Hmm?”
Gu Mengmeng snickered, “You are too much, this whole proposal thing… why you?! Why not let him propose?”
Bai Lan looked at Zhan Jin Cheng’s knee and replied, “I will never let him be afraid of having his knee touch the ground, in my lifetime.”
Gu Mengmeng did not understand, so she turned to look at Snakel.
Snakel explained, “When those people kidnapped them yesterday, Zhan Jin Cheng kneeled on the floor and used his body to protect Bai Lan. Later that day, when Mo Fen waved that stick in front of you, she shattered Zhan Jin Cheng’s calf bone. I have contacted the best doctor, so there will be no problem with walking properly in the future, but once it starts raining… it will certainly hurt.”
Gu Mengmeng’s eyes drooped, taking Bai Lan’s hand, “Bai Lan, I’m sorry… It is because of me that you guys are affected.”
“Silly girl, what are you talking about?” Bai Lan pinched Gu Mengmeng, “If it weren’t for you, I might never believe that there would be anyone in this world who would trade their life for mine, not abandoning me even under that circumstance. I have been strong for the past 19 years, it is the first time that I am being protected by someone else… Girl, if everything Mo Fen did was related to you, then I should thank you. If it wasn’t for this incident, I might have missed out on a dumb bitch who valued me more than his own life in this lifetime.”
“But…” Gu Mengmeng looked at Bai Lan and Zhan Jin Cheng, who were covered all over with gauze, still feeling guilty.
Bai Lan raised her arm, smiling, “You mean this? Alright, stop being a sissy. With my hot temper, I have stayed longer in the hospital than in the dormitory, this bit of injury means nothing.”
Gu Mengmeng was speechless.
That year, when Bai Lan had been heavily injured after she had tried to fight for her salary on her behalf, she had said the exact same thing.
Gu Mengmeng pulled Bai Lan’s hand, “Since you have decided to get married, then you cannot be so hot-tempered in future. You have to consider your man, don’t you? Without him, how will he survive?”
Bai Lan took a glance at Zhan Jin Cheng, smiled and replied, “Hmm, I got it.”
Zhan Jin Cheng, who had not spoken since the start, frowned at Bai Lan, “Bai Lan, your proposal doesn’t count.”
“Why not?!” Bai Lan exploded instantly, jumping off the hospital bed, practically riding on Zhan Jin Cheng’s body while grabbing both his collar, “Mr Zhan, let me tell you, you are the man that has caught my eye, so you have to agree whether you agree to it or not. Other than me, don’t think of having any other women in this lifetime!”
