Lin Gantang was washing vegetables and peeling garlic, while Wen Yanqing was in charge of cooking.
Lin Zhaonan came in to take a look. When he saw the menâs apron on Wen Yanqing, his cold eyes swept towards Lin Gantang.
He took out the pink apron and gave it to Aunt Zhang for her to wash and iron.
A fragrant smell wafted out from the kitchen. Mr. Lin strolled over leisurely and looked inside.
He happened to see Wen Yanqing reaching out his hand and Lin Gantang handing him the scallions. The two of them hadnât been together for long, but they seemed to have a good rapport.
Mr. Lin was very gratified.
Mr. Lin was happy. During dinner, he asked Lu Yuan to take out his treasured wine and pour some for Lin Zhaonan and Wen Yanqing.
Lin Gantang silently raised her glass. Mr. Lin glared at her and gave her a glass of orange juice.
She handed the orange juice to Jiang Tongtong and secretly touched Wen Yanqingâs glass beside her.
Wen Yanqing looked dotingly at her.
Lin Gantang could drink. Moreover, she was in her own house, so she wasnât afraid of anything happening.
The five of them laughed happily, and the atmosphere was warm.
Mr. Lin repeatedly praised Wen Yanqingâs culinary skills. Wen Yanqing smiled and said, âIf Uncle likes it. Iâll make it for you another day.â
âThereâs no needTâm already overjoyed that Uncle has tasted it.â Mr. Linâs face was a little flushed from drinking too much. He said happily, âYou donât have the time to do that. When the two of you get married, hire a cook. Itâs not like your family doesnât have the resources.â
âIf Gantang likes it, 1 can cook for her.â Wen Yanqing looked at Lin Gantang with a smile.
Lin Gantang peeled the prawns and placed them in Wen Yanqingâs bowl, saying, âArenât you guys thinking too far ahead? We can talk about it after marriage.â
âIt wonât be long, wonât be long.â Mr. Lin got excited easily when he drank and spoke more than usual. âGet married when youâre almost done dating. Forget about this year, what about next year? Do you have any plans for next year?â
Wen Yanqing smiled and replied, âIt mainly depends on Gantangâs opinion.â âDonât listen to her. The last time I listened to her, she found herself a marriage partner.â Mr. Lin waved his hand and concluded, âWhatâs your birth date and horoscope? Iâll find someone to match your birth characters and set a good date for you two to settle the matter!â
After saying that, he slammed the table firmly.
Lin Gantang glanced at her father and asked Jiang Tongtong, âIs Dad drunk?â
âIâm not drunk!â
Mr. Linâs roar scared Lin Gantang so much that the ribs on her chopsticks fell off.
Jiang Tongtong didnât know whether to laugh or cry. She nudged Lin Zhaonan with her elbow. âDad is drunk. Hurry and take the wine away.â
Lin Zhaonan took the wine glass from Mr. Linâs hand. âDad, why donât you go back to your room and lie down?â
âI havenât eaten the cake yet!â
âWeâll leave it for you. We wonât touch it.â
Mr. Lin was satisfied.
After dinner, she realized that it was raining outside.
The rain fell intermittently, hitting the grass and trees, wrapping the fallen yellow leaves. The rain and fog surrounded the illuminated villa.
Winter was coming.
âAfter this bout of rain, tomorrow will be even colder.â Lin Gantang looked out the window. The autumn wind blew in, bringing with it rain. She went forward and closed the window.
âYou canât drive after drinking. Donât go back. Why donât you stay here for the night?â Lin Gantang said.
Wen Yanqingâs eyes flashed. âIs it convenient?â
âYes, it is. 1 donât know when the rain outside will stop. Itâs not convenient for you to walk.â Lin Gantang led him upstairs.
The guest room on the third floor was cleaned every day. The bedsheets and bedding had all been changed. There were also fresh flowers in the room. It was very refreshing and clean.
âThere should be new menâs pajamas. Iâll go get them from Tongtong. Why donât you take a shower first? Iâll wash the clothes you change out of; youâll be able to wear them tomorrow.â
Wen Yanqing went into the bathroom. Lin Gantang got new pajamas and knocked on the bathroom door.
There was a click.
Lin Gantang pushed the door open a crack and passed the clothes in.
Wen Yanqing noticed that she had not left. He turned off the hot water and asked with a smile, âArenât you leaving? Do you want to come in and take a look?â
With that, he opened the door..
