Gu Zhichuan tightly gripped what he held in his hand.
Wen Yanqing’s provocative, warning, and assertive gaze made his face turn cold.
It was as if a basin of water had been poured over his head, and he finally regained some clarity.
Lin Gantang already had a boyfriend, so why did he come here?
Gu Zhichuan turned around and handed the items to the shop assistant. “Please pass this to your boss. This is a birthday gift for her father.”
“Ah!” Qian Ruoxi exclaimed and quickly received it.
Another customer came forward to ask her about books. Qian Ruoxi casually placed the congratulatory gift beneath the cash register.
After she was done, she was about to bring it to Lin Gantang when Wen Yanqing came over and asked her what it was.
Qian Ruoxi told him the truth. Wen Yanqing said, “Give it to me. Carry on with your work.”
Qian Ruoxi knew that Wen Yanqing was the boss’s boyfriend, so she went to work without worries after handing it to him.
Wen Yanqing calmly glanced at the item in his hand and threw it into the trash can outside.
“Why are you walking so fast?” Lin Gantang, who came out from behind, asked.
Wen Yanqing turned around with a gentle smile on his face. “1 see candied haws. Do you want to eat them?”
“Candied haws for sale so early?”
“Yes, the hawthorn has long matured.”
As the two of them chatted, Lin Gantang forgot what she wanted to ask.
On Sunday morning, Wen Yanqing finished his work in the office and left for the Lin family home in the afternoon.
Lin Gantang didn’t go to the bookstore that day. She was studying cakes with Jiang Tongtong.
Previously, when she had heard Jiang Tongtong say that she wanted to make a cake herself, Lin Gantang thought that this person was an expert. Now that she was busy sifting flour and looking for an electronic scale, hmm… She suddenly didn’t dare to have any expectations.
Lin Zhaonan poured a glass of water and leaned against the door. “Let Auntie Zhang do it. I’m afraid that Dad won’t even be able to eat cake for his birthday this year if the two of you make dinner.”
Jiang Tongtong glowered at him angrily.
Lin Gantang put down the whipped cream. “Don’t drag me in. I definitely won’t mess dinner up. You should help your own wife. Don’t you feel embarrassed eating without doing anything?”
Lin Gantang threw the apron to Lin Zhaonan. Lin Zhaonan looked at the kittens and pink border on the apron with a fascinating expression.
“Hey, Tangtang, don’t go. I don’t want him. Come and help me!” Jiang Tongtong shouted.
Lin Gandang immediately mocked her brother. “Reflect on why your wife doesn’t want you. How dare you stand there and talk about others.”
Lin Zhaonan was provoked by her and accepted the cute little apron with a constipated expression. He gritted his teeth and said, “Very good, Lin Gantang. You won’t have an allowance next month.”
Lin Gantang slowly took out her card from her pocket. “Sigh, look. What is this? Isn’t it nice? You don’t have this, right? Sigh, I’m annoyed that you actually don’t, haha.”
Lin Zhaonan turned around and saw the black card in her hand…He really didn’t.
“Lin Gantang, you’re crazy!”
“If there’s nothing wrong with me, I wouldn’t have carried a card around with me at home.” Lin Gantang put the card back into her pocket and said smugly, “I was just waiting to use it to anger you.”
Seeing her brother’s sour expression, Lin Gantang left in satisfaction.
Mr. Lin heard the commotion and came down. He stood outside the kitchen for a while and watched the two kitchen newbies busy themselves. He shook his head and left. He called Butler Lu, “Lu Yuan, do we still have any stomach medicine at home?”
He had no confidence in their skills at all.
When Wen Yanqing arrived, Lin Gantang was about to cut a few champagne roses from the small garden.
The autumn afternoon sun shone on her, and Lin Gantang’s forehead was slightly sweaty.
Wen Yanqing smiled and wiped away her sweat. “You didn’t wear a hat. Did you get sunburned?”
“It’s okay. 1 wore too much and couldn’t be bothered to take it off.”
Lin Gantang reached out for the rose branch, but Wen Yanqing grabbed her hand. “Let me do it.. What if you get stabbed later?”
