After a while, Bei Bei came down again and placed four little cuties at Lin Gantang feet. She said, âThe kittens meowed for a long time last night after leaving their mother. Theyâre probably not used to the sudden change in environment.â
As they spoke, Bei Beiâs mother returned. When she entered and saw her daughter and a woman being extremely close, she immediately became nervous.
She promptly walked over. The two people who were looking at the kittens heard the footsteps and looked back.
âMum, youâre back?â Bei Bei said.
âHello, Auntie,â Lin Gantang greeted politely.
When Bei Beiâs mother saw that it was Lin Gantang, she heaved a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, it was the daughter of the Lin family. Lin Gantang had a boyfriend and liked men. Bei Beiâs mother was relieved.
âMiss Lin, youâre so early?â Bei Beiâs mother looked at Lin Gantang, who was dressed neatly and beautifully. Then, she looked at her slovenly daughter. She couldnât help but lecture Bei Bei. âLook at you, look at you. What time is it? Why are you still not up? How can you leave your room to meet your friend in this state?â
Bei Bei shrank back.
âAuntie, just call me Gantang,â Lin Gantang said. âItâs all my fault for coming too early. Itâs not Bei Beiâs fault.â
Lin Gantang spoke up for her, so Bei Beiâs mother couldnât scold Bei Bei any further. She said, âItâs rare to see Bei Beiâs friends looking for her. You guys have fun. Auntie will go upstairs and wonât disturb you.â
âOkay, Auntie.â
âGet Gantang a glass of water.â Bei Beiâs mother reminded her. Her daughterâs sexual orientation had deviated. Recently, she had been staying at home all day. Now, she did not even know how to treat guests. It was worrying her to death.
Bei Bei slowly poured a cup of hot water for Lin Gantang, then squatted down to look at the kittens with Lin Gantang.
Lin Gantang realized that Bei Bei was reluctant to part with them. âWhy donât I keep them in the bookstore? If you canât raise them at home, then you can go to the bookstore to look at them?â
Bei Bei tapped the little orange kittensâ ears. âNo need. Do what you need to do. Donât worry about me.â
The two of them chatted for a while before Lin Gantang left with the kittens.
When Bei Beiâs mother heard that there was no movement downstairs, she came down to take a look and found her daughter staring âdazedlyâ at the door in the direction where Lin Gantang had left.
Bei Beiâs motherâs heart skipped a beat. It canât be, right?
She was alarmed and quickly pulled at her daughter. âGantang has a boyfriend. You should put away thoughts that you shouldnât have.â
âMum, what are you talking about?â Bei Bei, who was reluctant to look away from the kittens in Lin Gantangâs hands, was baffled.
Bei Beiâs mother said sternly, âI canât help it if you like women. But Iâm warning you not to have any ideas about Gantang. I donât want to receive a warning from the Wen family!â
Bei Bei had no words. âMum, youâre thinking too much.â
âDonât you know if Iâm thinking too much? I told you to hang out with Bingxi more,â Bei Beiâs Mum said angrily. âI think that kid is quite nice. How many days has it been since you last asked him out?â
âWeâre just friends. What are you thinking?â Bei Bei was exasperated.
âI can tell at a glance that Bingxi likes you. If you donât like him, why did you play with him before?â
âWhat do you mean by like? Itâs your own imagination. Besides, I like women. He wonât change his gender for me.â
Bei Beiâs mother expired.
After Lin Gantang returned home, she showed the kittens to Jiang Tongtong. Jiang Tongtongâs eyes lit up as she hugged the kitten that wanted to escape from prison. The more she looked at it, the more she liked it. âCan I really keep it?â
âIf my brother doesnât agree, Iâll tell Dad to speak to him about it. You see how much Dad likes Big Mi? It shouldnât be a problem,â Lin Gantang thought of a way to deal with Lin Zhaonan.
Hence, they kept an orange kitten at home and Lin Gantang sent the remaining three to the bookstore.
That night, Wen Yanqing arrived punctually. He walked in and saw Big Mi squatting on the ground, pitifully watching Gantang feed the other kittens.
âTangtang, you have other cats?â Wen Yanqing came over and asked..
