Chapter 158 - 158: Gantang Is Not Going With Me

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Lin Gantang had no thoughts about celebrating her birthday, nor did she like to hold birthday parties. She spent her birthday like most people.

Wen Yanqing sent a message, “Are you really not coming out?”

“I’m just walking around for a meal. I’m not doing anything.”

Lin Gantang looked at it. “So you were thinking of doing something before?

“You broke the skin on my lips. Where can I go? I don’t even dare to take off my mask now!”

The wound on Lin Gantang’s lips had scabbed over, but it hadn’t fallen off, nor could she pick it off, and she couldn’t cover it up even with lipstick.

Every time she looked in the mirror, she wanted to drag Wen Yanqing out for a beating.

The other party did not say anything else. Lin Gantang suspected that Wen Yanqing felt guilty and did not dare to reply to her, so she turned around to talk to Qian Ruoxi.

Lin Gantang was preparing to let Qian Ruoxi officially become the store manager and was settling matters in the bookstore. She did not notice that someone had arrived at home first.

Wen Yanqing went to the Lin family’s house alone. Mr. Lin did not even look at the news that he often watched and worriedly asked him to sit down.

“Gantang isn’t with you?” Mr. Lin asked.

“I asked her out a few times, but she said she was busy, so I decided to wait for her at home.” Wen Yanqing sat down and explained.

“She’s busy?” Mr. Lin didn’t believe it. “Yesterday, she told me that there was someone called Xi who was in charge of the bookstore and that she didn’t have to stay in the shop all the time. What can she be so busy with that it takes up more time than your work? You’re already here and she doesn’t have time? What a joke!”

“Is that so?” Wen Yanqing defended her. “Maybe she has something else to do.”

“Don’t speak up for her. I’ll talk to her when she gets back. It’s rare to see you here so early. You haven’t eaten yet, have you?” Mr. Lin asked with concern. “I’ll ask Auntie Zhang to make you dinner.”

“Thank you, Uncle. I haven’t eaten yet. When Gantang doesn’t eat with me, it doesn’t feel good having a meal alone.” Wen Yanqing smiled after he finished speaking. “So 1 came to find you, Uncle. Please don’t mind me disturbing you.” “I think Lin Gantang is so blessed!” Mr. Lin patted Wen Yanqing kindly. “Don’t bother about her. Just stay here and have a home-cooked meal with me. Don’t bother about her.”

Wen Yanqing smiled and said alright. Her had a good temper, and Mr. Lin liked him more and more.

The two of them chatted about their daily lives, and Mr. Lin said emotionally, “Have you finished your work today? You’re pretty good. Shengfang is ever-improving under your control.”

“Uncle, you flatter me.” Wen Yanqing smiled and replied, “I’ve made arrangements for my work. Tomorrow is New Year’s Day, so I can rest for three days.”

“Alright, alright, alright. Work and rest should be balanced. Don’t be like Lin Zhaonan, who’s busy day and night, and sometimes isn’t asleep yet late into the night,” Mr. Lin complained.

Wen Yanqing, who used to be a workaholic, did not change his expression. “Uncle is right. I’ve always had a regular schedule. I’m more efficient when I rest well, so I don’t advocate working overtime.”

Mr. Lin agreed.

When dinner was ready, Mr. Lin ate with him. After that, they conversed and played chess. Mr. Lin lamented that Wen Yanqing was a rarity. He was capable and patient, and did not find it annoying to talk to him.

When Lin Gantang returned, she saw the two of them chatting happily.

“Dad, Yanqing,” Lin Gantang shouted.

Mr. Lin placed the teacup back on the coffee table with a clatter.

Lin Gantang was bewildered.

Lin Gantang walked past her father, but he didn’t even look at her.

She felt a little hungry and went into the dining room. The dining room was spotless and there was nothing to eat. Even Auntie Zhang, who did the cooking, had gone home to rest.

What was going on? In the past, she would always have food even when she came back at ten o’clock at night.

Mr. Lin saw her walking around the dining room and asked with a snort, “Why are you back so late tonight? Yanqing has been waiting for you all night.”

“It’s not too late, right?” Lin Gantang asked. “I came back before the bookstore closed.. Didn’t I come back even later before?”
