Gu Zhichuan tightly gripped what he held in his hand.
Wen Yanqingâs 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. âPlease pass this to your boss. This is a birthday gift for her father.â
âAh!â 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, âGive it to me. Carry on with your work.â
Qian Ruoxi knew that Wen Yanqing was the bossâs 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.
âWhy are you walking so fast?â Lin Gantang, who came out from behind, asked.
Wen Yanqing turned around with a gentle smile on his face. â1 see candied haws. Do you want to eat them?â
âCandied haws for sale so early?â
âYes, the hawthorn has long matured.â
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 didnât 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 didnât dare to have any expectations.
Lin Zhaonan poured a glass of water and leaned against the door. âLet Auntie Zhang do it. Iâm afraid that Dad wonât even be able to eat cake for his birthday this year if the two of you make dinner.â
Jiang Tongtong glowered at him angrily.
Lin Gantang put down the whipped cream. âDonât drag me in. I definitely wonât mess dinner up. You should help your own wife. Donât you feel embarrassed eating without doing anything?â
Lin Gantang threw the apron to Lin Zhaonan. Lin Zhaonan looked at the kittens and pink border on the apron with a fascinating expression.
âHey, Tangtang, donât go. I donât want him. Come and help me!â Jiang Tongtong shouted.
Lin Gandang immediately mocked her brother. âReflect on why your wife doesnât want you. How dare you stand there and talk about others.â
Lin Zhaonan was provoked by her and accepted the cute little apron with a constipated expression. He gritted his teeth and said, âVery good, Lin Gantang. You wonât have an allowance next month.â
Lin Gantang slowly took out her card from her pocket. âSigh, look. What is this? Isnât it nice? You donât have this, right? Sigh, Iâm annoyed that you actually donât, haha.â
Lin Zhaonan turned around and saw the black card in her handâ¦He really didnât.
âLin Gantang, youâre crazy!â
âIf thereâs nothing wrong with me, I wouldnât have carried a card around with me at home.â Lin Gantang put the card back into her pocket and said smugly, âI was just waiting to use it to anger you.â
Seeing her brotherâs 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, âLu Yuan, do we still have any stomach medicine at home?â
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 Gantangâs forehead was slightly sweaty.
Wen Yanqing smiled and wiped away her sweat. âYou didnât wear a hat. Did you get sunburned?â
âItâs okay. 1 wore too much and couldnât be bothered to take it off.â
Lin Gantang reached out for the rose branch, but Wen Yanqing grabbed her hand. âLet me do it.. What if you get stabbed later?â
