Lin Gantang was wearing a light blue dress and had her long curly hair loosely tied up, looking delicate and elegant. The dress was dotted with diamonds like countless beautiful morning dew drops, gently undulating as she walked.

She smiled politely at Gu Liangdong and called out, “Uncle.”

“Hey, alright.” Gu Liangdong smilingly greeted her. He waved over someone behind her and said to Lin Gantang, “Your Brother Jun is back. I asked him to come and greet you. You grew up together, don’t be too distant with each other.”

Gu Liangdong’s statement was a little exaggerated. As the saying went, distant relatives were not as close as neighbors. The Gu family and the Lin family were indeed quite familiar with each other, and Lin Gantang and Gu Hejun’s relationship was not bad. However, to say that they grew up together and had a good relationship? It wasn’t to that extent.

Gu Hejun was two years older than Lin Gantang. Lin Gantang went abroad to study in university, but he chose to complete his studies locally and join and learn from his father’s company. After accumulating work experience, he went abroad to study for an MBA. Lin Gantang had not seen him for a long time.

Gu Hejun’s personality was like his father’s. He was talkative and outgoing. He was not bad looking, and had a pair of beautiful almond-shaped eyes. The corners of his eyes were elegantly raised just a little, and there was always a hint of a smile.

Gu Hejun came over and saw Lin Gantang before him. He was surprised for a while before saying, “Gantang?”

Lin Gantang was very different from how he remembered her, especially her current temperament. Gu Hejun almost couldn’t recognize her.

“Senior, long time no see. Did you just come back?” Lin Gantang smiled.

“Haha, a senior from primary school?” Gu Hejun was amused. “Call me Hejun. I came back the day before yesterday. I went visiting at your house yesterday and didn’t see you.”

“I wasn’t home yesterday,” Lin Gantang said with a smile.

Her flowing hair naturally brushed past her ears. Lin Gantang used her hand to push it behind her ear. Her earrings shimmered as they caught the light, decorating her neckline perfectly.

Gu Hejun was stunned for a moment.

“Are you still working at your father’s company?” Lin Gantang asked.

Gu Hejun said, “I’m currently working in an investment bank. Whether 1 return or not depends on the situation. What about you? What are you busy with after graduation?”

“I’m not as capable as you.” Lin Gantang smiled. “I opened a bookstore to find something to do.”

“That’s pretty good. I’ll visit your business one day.”

The two of them started chatting. Mr. Lin and Gu Liangdong also went to catch up with their friends.

Attractive people always attracted the attention of others. Lin Gantang and Gu Hejun were chatting when they heard someone softly scoffing from the side.

Lin Gantang turned her head slightly.

Zhou Manbai was wearing a dark purple dress. She was in her forties, but her figure was well-maintained.

Her relationship with Wen Yanqing was like oil and water. Since Lin Gantang was Wen Yanqing’s girlfriend, Zhou Manbai naturally did not like her either.

“Miss Lin, you have some tricks up your sleeve when it comes to men.” Zhou Manbai sneered as her gaze shifted between her and Gu Hejun.

Lin Gantang frowned.

“Miss Lin, you don’t even say hello? If Wen Yanqing hadn’t forced Wen Rendong to divorce me, you would have called me Mum in the future,” Zhou Manbai mocked.

“Yanqing’s and my mother are buried in the ground. Whose mother are you?” Lin Gantang chuckled. “If you want me to call you Mum, go underground and ask my future mother-in-law if she’s agreeable?”

“You!” Zhou Manbai was speechless for a moment before she scoffed, “You haven’t even married into the family yet. What are you being so arrogant for?”

“Yes, I haven’t. However, you should know that 1’11 marry into the family. Of course, I’m different from you, who left the Wen family.” Lin Gantang was smiling, angering Zhou Manbai so much so that she almost hit the roof.

Lin Gantang could tell that Zhou Manbai was unhappy about the divorce and wanted to vent her anger on her..
