Chapter 457: You’ve Been A Little Unlucky Lately

Wen Yanqing did not have the time to blame himself when someone wanted to take advantage of the situation.
He returned to the ward and picked up an apple, peeling it slowly.
Lin Zhaonan patted his shoulder and left.
When he wasn’t around just now, he didn’t know what Mr. Lin and Lin Gantang were talking about. Now, he was muttering, “I feel that you’ve been a little unlucky recently. No, I have to get someone to read your fortune.”
And Lin Gantang’s helpless expression.
He even wanted to hire fortune-tellers.
After a while, Gu Zhichuan came in. Wen Yanqing glanced at him and sneered to himself when he did not see Gu Zhichuan bring the flowers in.
“Zhichuan is here,” Mr. Lin said calmly.
“Uncle, I’m here to see Gantang,” Gu Zhichuan said.
Mr. Lin glanced at Wen Yanqing and said, “It’s just a small injury. There’s nothing to look at. You’ve troubled yourself.”
Lin Gantang couldn’t help but look at Mr. Lin. Heh, that wasn’t what you said just now. You were so serious as if I was seriously ill. You didn’t even let me get out of bed and walk around.
“It’s good that she’s fine. I’m just worried about Gantang.” Gu Zhichuan stood in front of Lin Gantang. Seeing her pale lips, he could not help but worry. “Does it hurt?”
“It doesn’t hurt. I feel like I can be discharged now.” Lin Gantang’s expression was calm.
Mr. Lin looked at her. Tsk, you didn’t say that just now. You were hurting everywhere and wanted others to treat you like a god.
Gu Zhichuan sat there for a while. He did not know what else to say other than to show concern for her injuries. It was only now that he realized that his understanding of Lin Gantang was pitifully little. He could not even find a single thing to start a conversation with.
He was afraid that he would say something wrong and that Lin Gantang would be unhappy if he did so.
Moreover, Mr. Lin was here, so there were many things that he could not say.
Hence, he left after sitting for a while. Wen Yanqing passed the apple to Lin Gantang. “I’m going back to change my clothes. I’ll come back later.”
Lin Gantang was surprised. She thought that she had to persuade him to leave.
“Sure, you can rest at home while you’re at it. Besides, you’re not done at the office, right? There are nurses and Auntie Zhang here. You don’t have to worry.”
“I’ll go with you. I have something to tell you.” Mr. Lin got up with Wen Yanqing. He turned around and instructed Lin Gantang. “Stay here. I’ll come over later.”
Lin Gantang didn’t mind. “Dad, you should go back and rest too. I’m already an adult. You don’t have to guard me.”
After they left, Lin Gantang took out her phone and started to watch dramas as she bit into the apple.
It’s not like she was sick. What’s there to be pretentious about?
She searched for what she wanted to see but still couldn’t find it. Ye Qiuqiu’s video request came in.
Lin Gantang subconsciously looked at the time. She was video-calling her now? Usually, this was her busiest time at work.
As soon as the call connected, the screen paused. Lin Gantang thought that her phone was stuck, but the other party suddenly said, “F*ck.
“How did you become like this? You’re hospitalized?” Ye Qiuqiu guessed as she observed what she saw through the small lens.
“Hmm, I’m a little injured. Why are you looking for me now? Is there something wrong?” Lin Gantang asked.
“It’s nothing. I wanted to tell you that I’ve already resigned.” Ye Qiuqiu stared at her. “It’s nothing. What’s wrong with you? How did you get injured?”
Lin Gantang said it simply. Ye Qiuqiu said, “Why are you living so dangerously every day? To think I was envious that you were rich. Forget it now. It’s safer to be poor.”
Lin Gantang chuckled. “Natural and man-made disasters won’t be avoided just because you’re poor. When you’re free, read more social news. Most of the accidents are caused by ordinary people.”
“F*ck, my heart hurts.” Ye Qiuqiu clutched her chest. “It’s bad enough that I don’t have any money, yet you’re telling the truth..”
