Mr. Lin’s face darkened when he saw Lin Gantang running down the stairs with Wen Yanqing following behind her. His son also looked as if he wanted to leave quickly. “Lin Zhaonan, whose food are you saying tastes bad?”
“It’s the dried fish from last night. He said that the food you made was very strange!” Lin Gantang complained.
“Hah, why eat it when it tastes bad? That’s not what you said when you ate the food last night.” Mr. Lin scolded him, “You’ve become capable now? Are you secretly disgusted behind your father’s back? People who don’t appreciate it have no right to speak here!”
Lin Zhaonan was speechless. Alright, I’ll shut up and get lost. I’m more than happy to do so.
Lin Zhaonan hurriedly returned to his room to hide.
“What’s wrong with you two? I remember that, Gantang, aren’t you staying at Yanqing’s house?” Mr. Lin asked as he flipped through the calendar on his phone.
When he saw Wen Yanqing and Lin Gantang at home, he thought that his eyes were playing tricks on him. They were also here at this time yesterday. Could it be that he remembered the time and date wrongly?
That was impossible. Mr. Lin finally understood. Yesterday, he even sneaked a drink when his daughter was not around. He could not forget this.
“You’ve only stayed for a day. Why are you back?” I didn’t even hide my wine properly.
Lin Gantang felt the same speechlessness as her brother did. Indeed, heaven has eyes. No one could escape her Dad’s disdain.
“I left yesterday, so I can’t come back today?” It can’t be, right? They weren’t even married yet!
Mr. Lin walked towards the dining room with his hands behind his back. He didn’t want Lin Gantang to notice his guilt. “Of course you can. Tell Dad in advance next time. I’ll ask Auntie Zhang to prepare your favorite dishes for you.”
That good? Lin Gantang was shocked. Was this the benefit of moving out? When she was at home, her dad didn’t care what she liked to eat.
Lin Gantang was touched. “Dad, there’s no need. I love everything that Auntie Zhang makes.”
“Why are you following me?” Mr. Lin stopped and glared at her. “Accompany Yanqing to the garden and pick a few flowers. Don’t you girls like flowers?”
She was so moved – he even knew that she was a girl who loved flowers!
Lin Gantang was moved by Mr. Lin’s boundless love and was determined to be his most beloved little girl in the future.
Lin Gantang pulled Wen Yanqing to the small garden. The rose buds had not bloomed yet, and the nearby clivia was in full bloom.
Would her dad beat her up if she picked some?
“Wait for me. I’ll take out the little spider plant in my room for Uncle Rong to take care of. I won’t come back often to water it now that I’m staying at your place.”
Wen Yanqing’s house was also decorated with green plants, so Lin Gantang did not have to spend any effort to move over. She entered the living room and was about to go upstairs when she saw Mr. Lin carrying something in the dining room.
What was he doing, sneaking around?
Lin Gantang quietly went over and realized that her dad was holding a bottle of wine and was anxiously trying to stuff it somewhere.
Lin Gantang was dumbfounded. He must have been drinking secretly.
“It can be seen immediately if you hide it here. Dad, put it back in the wine cabinet.”
Mr. Lin got a fright. He turned around and saw Lin Gantang. He refused to admit it. “What hide? I specially took it out for Yanqing to drink!”
“Look at me, do you think I believe that?” Lin Gantang crossed her arms.
“Dad is the person who dotes on you the most. You don’t even believe me?” Mr. Lin snorted. “Other people’s daughters always bring cigarettes and wine back to their parents’ homes. You’re the only one who keeps staring at your father’s alcohol all day long.”
You’re still being reasonable? “Is your stomach better?” Lin Gantang asked. “I have time tomorrow; shall 1 take you for a follow-up visit?”
“Yanqing? Yanqing!” Mr. Lin called out to Wen Yanqing. Wen Yanqing vaguely heard the voice and came in. He heard Mr. Lin say, “When are you going home? Take her away. She’s so annoying. I don’t want to raise her anymore.”
Lin Gantang was at a loss for words.
This is the person who loves me the most?
