Chapter 334: Did I? When?
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
When Mr. Lin heard that, he thought, “Wasn’t that right?”
Lin Gantang also had an elder brother. When she was naughty, Lin Zhaonan would take responsibility as an elder brother to teach her a lesson. Unlike Gu Zhichuan, who was cold and indifferent to his younger sister, allowing Gu Shuyue to make mistakes without a care.
How much concern would such a cold person give if she married him?
Fortunately, Gantang did not marry him. Mr. Lin did not show it on his face, but he was glad inside.
“Since Uncle wants you to leave, you can leave.” Wen Yanqing said to Gu Zhichuan, “I’ll take care of Gantang. There’s no need to pay for the medical expenses. I don’t lack that bit of money.”
Gu Zhichuan looked at Lin Gantang, who did not object to Wen Yanqing’s decision at all.
Gu Shuyue and his mother were here, so he wouldn’t be able to say anything that would avoid angering the others.
He said that he would visit again another day and turned to leave with a displeased expression.
Mrs. Gu couldn’t keep up with Gu Zhichuan’s strides even though she was jogging in her high heels. She stopped and asked, “What’s wrong with your brother?”
“Maybe he is angry?” Gu Shuyue said.
“What’s he angry about? It was the Lin family who asked him to leave. I’m his mother and he’s venting his anger on me,” Mrs. Gu complained.
Gu Shuyue had just made a mistake. She was most afraid that her mother would turn her attention to her and scold her. Thus, she pretended to be suspicious and said, “Mum, do you think he has fallen in love with Gantang again? I heard that he has been going to Lin Gantang’s bookstore recently.”
“I don’t care who he likes, as long as it’s not Feng Yangyang or those shameless people who want to cling onto our Gu family!” Thinking of Feng Yangyang, Mrs. Gu was annoyed. She said sarcastically, “She still has the cheek to take the house my son gave her. Didn’t she say that she wasn’t greedy for my son’s money? Huh.”
Gu Shuyue saw that she was talking about Feng Yangyang, so she changed the topic again. “Mum, you didn’t like Lin Gantang in the past. Besides, Lin Gangtang has a boyfriend now. If Wen Yanqing were to have a dispute with my brother, the Gu family would definitely suffer.”
Seeing that Mrs. Gu didn’t have much of a reaction, Gu Shuyue added, “The Gu family can’t compare to the Wen family. We definitely can’t beat them. If our family isn’t as wealthy as we are now, how are you going to meet your friends in the future? How are you going to organize tea parties? There definitely won’t be as many beautiful jewelry and clothes as there are now.”
Mrs. Gu’s expression immediately changed. “Your brother is running wild!”
Gu Shuyue hid her thoughts. “That’s right. Mum, go and control him. It’s not too late now.”
“I’ll talk to him properly.” Mrs. Gu pouted and she quickened her pace unhappily.
After the Gu family left, Lin Gantang had a quiet night. She thought that they would not return, but she saw Gu Zhichuan come alone at noon the next day.
He was there purely to visit, unlike Gu Shuyue and Mrs. Gu, who were annoying. Although Mr. Lin did not seem welcoming, he did not say anything.
As a result, Gu Zhichuan went to the hospital almost twice within a day. Lin Gantang was impatient and told him not to come. He said goodbye and left. When he got up, he said, “I know you and I can’t be friends, but even if we’re strangers, I should still come and visit because you were injured because of my family.”
Wen Yanqing’s eyes darkened a few times.
“Do you want to be discharged?” he asked Lin Gantang before Mr. Lin came.
“Of course. I wanted to leave as soon as I came in, but you didn’t let me.” Lin Gantang snorted.
“It’s been three days. I see that your wound has recovered very well. Let’s get you discharged first. You seem rather bored here. I’ll accompany you if you need to change your dressing,” said Wen Yanqing.
“Didn’t you say that you can’t do anything about it if you’re not a family member?” Lin Gantang raised her eyebrows.
“Did I? When?” Wen Yanqing refused to admit it. “It’s not like a major surgery which requires a family member’s signature. I’ll speak to the doctor.”
Lin Gantang was speechless.. Then why didn’t you speak with the doctor at the start!
