“This is a proper bookstore. Wait for me.”

“Yes,” Lin Gantang answered on the phone and went to Ye Qiuqiu.

The calico came down from the cat tree and walked around Ye Qiuqiu’s feet. Ye Qiuqiu looked at the exquisite ragdoll cat in front of the two girls on the left and then at the lively Scottish Fold that the man in the baseball cap was playing with. She felt jealous.

It was better than nothing. Ye Qiuqiu reached out a hand and approached the calico to express her goodwill. It sniffed her and its drooping tail swayed.

“You have quite a lot of guests here.” Ye Qiuqiu patted the cat’s head as she spoke to Lin Gantang.

“On the first day of the opening, my friends came to support me.” Seeing that she was alone, Lin Gandang felt it strange. “Didn’t you say you’d come with your husband?”

“I had a fight with him before I left. We’re having a cold war, so I came over myself.”

This reason surprised Lin Gantang. “You guys were pretty good when you were dating. He never quarreled with you.”

“Love is love, marriage is marriage. When 1 was in love, I didn’t think that he would be a person who doesn’t sweep the floor nor wash the dishes after marriage.” Ye Qiuqiu said, “There are too many trivial matters after marriage. If you keep holding it in, the number of times you’re dissatisfied will accumulate. It’ll eventually explode.”

“Didn’t your mother-in-law stop working and stay at home to take care of the housework?”

“How can 1 really just do nothing when I come back from work? It’s not like I’m with my own mother.” Ye Qiuqiu was helpless. “Let’s not talk about this. I can see that you’re quite busy. I’ll look for some books to read first. We’ll talk when you’re done.”

Ye Qiuqiu had specially come for Lin Gantang’s opening. She didn’t mind being bored. She would even help arrange the books that were messed up by the guests.

After the supporters gradually left, the bookstore became much quieter. Most of the remaining people came to Hejiang Square to shop. They saw that the bookstore was newly opened and had discounts, so they came to have a look.

In the evening, Yin Zhen actually came.

She was still wearing a formal suit. She should have come straight after work.

Lin Gantang was very surprised.

“Congratulations. You’re finally doing something serious.” Yin Zhen glanced around the bookstore.

Lin Gantang couldn’t help but laugh. “In your eyes, I’m just an idle second – generation?”

In the eyes of Yin Zhen, who had helped share her family’s burden, wasn’t Lin Gantang that kind of person?

Lin Gantang’s self-mockery made Yin Zhen relax. “I can’t believe that we can stand together and talk calmly.”

Lin Gantang could not help but laugh.

“Alright, I’m just here to take a look. I’ll be leaving soon. Don’t worry about me,” Yin Zhen said.

The number of customers gradually decreased. Ye Qiuqiu finally hugged the beautiful Scottish Fold that she had been thinking about for a long time. However, this cat wasn’t one to sit still. It perfunctorily let her pet it and ran off to another place to ‘entertain the guests’.

Ye Qiuqiu gave up and returned her attention to the book. Not long after, her gaze slipped to Lin Gantang and Wen Yanqing. She saw Wen Yanqing tidying Lin Gantang’s messy bangs. The two of them were intimate and speaking quietly to each other.

Ye Qiuqiu immediately smiled.

Wen Yanqing had been busy for the whole day. There were not many people around, so Ruoxi could take care of them. Lin Gantang pulled him toward Ye Qiuqiu. “My friend is here. Let’s go have a meal together. Her name is Ye Qiuqiu. She was my high school classmate.”

Lin Gantang was beginning to introduce her circle of friends to him. Wen Yanqing was delighted. “Hello, I’m Wen Yanqing.”

He actually knew Ye Qiuqiu. Lin Gantang often hung out with Ye Qiuqiu in high school.

“Hello, hello.” Ye Qiuqiu smiled and said, “Gantang often mentions you to me. She says that you’re super handsome, gentle, and good to her. You’re so much better than everyone else. She really likes you so much. She praises you every day until my ears have developed calluses.”

Lin Gantang was speechless. Did she?

Wen Yanqing chuckled..
