NOVEL NEXT Chapter 189: You Are Too Heartless
The Gu Family's separation caused quite a stir, but it was soon overshadowed by the recruitment list of the performing arts troupe.
During these days, the troupe had basically finished visiting the families of potential candidates, and the list was finally decided.
Gu Juan's name was not on it.
It was said that her name was originally there, but because of this incident, the military surely wouldn't want her anymore.
For this reason, Gu Juan cried at home for several days.
However, it didn't affect Gu Lingling at all. Even if the separation caused much weeping, she would still turn a deaf ear.
Unexpectedly, it was Ge Dan Ni who got accepted into the performing arts troupe in the end.
Recently, Wang Lanhua walked around the village with a swagger, and no matter who she met, her first words were, "The military leaders have sharp eyes. Don't think our Dan Ni is usually quiet, she's much better than those who are always noisy."
To this, Gu Lingling wholeheartedly agreed.
"Lingling, please, won't you? I just need one of your clothes you don't wear, just one, okay?"
Don't get it wrong, this wasn't Gu Juan asking, but Wang Lanhua's supposedly quiet daughter.
Gu Lingling didn't even know what to say.
What did she mean by clothes she didn't wear? Since when did she have so many unworn clothes?
"I don't want to be looked down upon." Seeing Gu Lingling not responding, Ge Dan Ni lowered her head, tugging at her clothes.
She had many siblings. Although she was the eldest, her clothes mostly came from her aunts, patched over patches.
If she wore such clothes out, she would be laughed at to death.
"Comrade Ge Dan Ni, first, I don't have clothes I don't wear. Second, if they're truly friends, they wouldn't look down on you just because of your clothes."
"So about what you said, I'm sorry, I can't help you."
"Besides, I think the one you should be looking for is your mother, not me."
She, Ge Dan Ni, wasn't really anyone to her, so why should she lend her clothes? It was utterly ridiculous.
Moreover, did she think she was foolish or easy to bully?
"You... Gu Juan can wear so many of your clothes, can't you lend me just one?" Ge Dan Ni looked at Gu Lingling with tears, "Just this once, okay?"
"I... At worst, when I get to the army, I'll send you my uniform, alright?" Ge Dan Ni thought for a moment and said, gritting her teeth.
The quality of military uniforms is much more durable than the fabrics available locally. She could give Gu Lingling a uniform but would have to hide it from Wang Lanhua.
Now, Gu Lingling should agree, right?
What did she mean by "at worst"?
Gu Lingling was truly at a loss for whether to laugh or cry because of this clueless girl.
Did she think she was really getting a great deal?
"Military uniforms are precious, you should keep it for yourself." Gu Lingling said, heading to the door, "I have something to do and need to go out, you..."
"Gu Lingling, why won't you just help me a little? How can you be so heartless?" Ge Dan Ni cried and ran out.
Gu Lingling, "..."
She shook her head helplessly; Ge Dan Ni's voice was quite nice, but honestly, with such a temperament, if she was in the army...
Gu Lingling chuckled.
Fortunately, in a short while, she would be going to the army, and they probably wouldn't have any interactions then.
Otherwise, dealing with someone so unreasonable who would cry at the drop of a hat, Gu Lingling would find it very challenging.
Yet, she didn't regret offending Ge Dan Ni over this matter at all.
She wasn't someone easy to push around; why should she let herself be picked on by anyone?
