Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Yin Zhen hadn’t arrived yet, so Lin Gantang had fun while she waited.

Wen Yanqing followed her around. Looking at the groups of people chatting and laughing, he asked, “Who organized this year’s gathering?”

“Yin Zhen, but the manor belongs to her friend, Si Tijin. Hong Shuangying did it last year and the year before. These are the people who like to organize events.”

Lin Gantang could basically see Hong Shuangying at every gathering or banquet. It was only later that she found out that it was not without reason that she knew so much gossip.

“Qin Jiayao will come. Do you think Shi Jun will come too?” Lin Gantang asked.

“I guess he will come.” Wen Yanqing smiled.

The cool breeze carried the faint scent of dry pine from the mountains. The wisteria climbed up the trellis, and the benches under the vines were empty.

She held Wen Yanqing’s hand and sat down. She looked at the beautiful scenery in the distance and sighed. “Sigh. Yin Zhen has fallen.” A phone call to ask others to go ahead and have fun while she was intoxicated with her own comfort.

Wen Yanqing laughed again.

“Don’t laugh!” Lin Gantang sulked and leaned against him.

Lin Gantang did not realize that she had this problem in the past. Perhaps it was because Gu Zhichuan was too cold.

In any case, whenever she got close to Wen Yanqing now, she would like to hold his hand, lean on his shoulder, or throw herself into his arms and lean against his chest.

Lin Gantang liked to get close to him and touch him. She felt that he could give her a strong sense of security, reliability, and peace of mind.

When she was with Wen Yanqing, she didn’t want to pursue something passionate and vigorous.

She slowly fell in love with his gentleness and indulged in it.

Wen Yanqing placed his hands on the bench and wrapped his arms around her. From afar, it looked as if he was hugging Lin Gantang by his side intimately.

Hong Shuangying nudged her companion beside her, gesturing for her to look at Lin Gantang. “You guessed that Lin Gantang was just toying with Wen Yanqing back then. Look at them now. They’ve been together for more than half a year.”

Wang Yingying was busy opening a beer bottle for herself. She looked over and said, “Nowadays, when people are in love, who takes them seriously? Lin Gantang let go of Gu Zhichuan just like that. Who knows what will happen to the two of them in the future?”

Hong Shuangying had something to say. “I heard that Lin Gantang went to meet the man’s parents. What about the future? It’ll probably wind up in marriage.”

“So fast?” Wang Yingying was very surprised. Then she smiled and said, “I hope Lin Gantang won’t run away from the wedding this time. Haha. But where did you get the news? You even know that others are going visiting during the New Year.”

Hong Shuangying was smug. “I added her on WeChat. She posted something about Uncle Wen’s red envelope in her Moments. Isn’t that a red envelope for his future daughter-in-law?” n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Wang Yingying was envious. “When will she add me? I want to watch too.”

“Forget it. You’re friends with Tan Huiya. Why would Gantang bother with you?” Hong Shuangying said in disdain. “She has a good relationship with Yin Zhen now.”

“Tan Huiya came looking herself. I didn’t feel it nice to reject her.” Especially since Tan Huiya kept asking about Wen Yanqing in a roundabout way. Wang Yingying gradually guessed her intentions and did not interact with her as frequently as before.

Asking me about Wen Yanqing? What a joke. Why would you ask about something I don’t even know?

“I’ll invite her over. I wonder if she’s interested in barbecue.” Hong Shuangying wanted to give it a try.

Hong Shuangying walked over and asked. She didn’t expect Lin Gantang to agree immediately.

Lin Gantang led Wen Yanqing to the barbecue area. The people who were busy eating stopped in their tracks. Looking around, eight out of ten of them were her old fake friends.

Lin Gantang was at a loss for words. She vaguely felt that something was wrong.. Was it too late to leave now?
