Chapter 569: See If You Like The Dowry

After ending the call with Yi Qian, Lin Gantang called Wen Yanqing.

She could almost imagine Yi Qian’s anxious look. She wanted to laugh, but this had happened because of her. She held back her laughter and waited until Wen Yanqing picked up the phone. She said, “Where is your household register? I’ll bring it to you. You don’t have to waste time running back.”

“It’s in the drawer in the room, the second one,” Wen Yanqing said.

“It’s so casually placed?” Lin Gantang got up and walked to the drawer he mentioned. “Can I at least put it in the safe?” Her dad, for example, kept his books tightly locked, afraid that he would lose them.

“I’ll put it in the safe after we get our marriage certificate. I’ll set a password for it – the kind that I won’t give you even if you regret and want to take it away.” Lin Gantang heard him chuckling softly.

Hearing his low laughter, Lin Gantang’s ears heated up. She rubbed her ears and said, “You should hurry back to the meeting. My household register is still with my dad. I have to go home; I won’t be so soon.”

“I’ll go with you.”

“I can’t run away. If we can’t make it today, we’ll get it tomorrow. What’s the hurry? Today’s work should be very important?” Lin Gantang laughed. “Yi Qian was so anxious that he called me.”

“Not as important as you.”

How could it not be important? She had seen with her own eyes how busy he had been these past few days. If he suddenly left the meeting, she did not know how much effort he would have to put in to make up for it.

Lin Gantang tried to persuade him in another way. “But I still have something to do in the morning and have to go to the bookstore. Why don’t I take the two registers with me? I’ll be done with my work after your meeting as well. I’ll go over and look for you to set off together? There’s still time. It’s still early.”

Lin Gantang insisted, and Wen Yanqing listened to her.

Lin Gantang found Wen Yanqing’s household register in the room and drove straight to her dad’s place.

However, Mr. Lin had gone out early in the morning. Lin Gantang called him to ask where the household register was and if it was still in the safe.

Mr. Lin sat up straight when he heard the question. “Household register? What for? Do you want to register?”

“That’s right. Dad, you guessed it so accurately.”

“Is there a need to guess?” Mr. Lin told her the password to the safe. “Remember to lock it after you take it. Don’t tell your brother the new password. That brat, he stole my register previously. Let’s see how he’s going to steal it now!”

Lin Gantang was speechless. He didn’t need to steal anymore. After all, he had married his wife.

However, Lin Gantang was excited. Did you hear that? Don’t tell her brother the password, but it was alright for her to know it! Her status far surpassed Lin Zhaonan’s!

Wait a minute. Lin Gantang thought of something. “Dad, you won’t change the password again after I take it, will you?” she asked tentatively.

“What do you mean change it? Dad can’t remember so many passwords at my age. Most of the things in the safe are left behind by your mother. If you like it, come back and take it. Your brother is a man and can strive for whatever he wants. I’m worried that my safe is not decent enough.”

“Dad, why are you suddenly so nice to me?” Lin Gantang asked cautiously, feeling something amiss after the initial elation faded.

In the past, he had always despised her whenever he got a hold of her!

Why was he so generous, kind, and doting now?

“Didn’t you say that you were going to register your marriage? I have to show you the dowry.” Mr. Lin said, “See if you like it. If you don’t like it, we’ll talk when I get back. Eh? The fish has taken the bait. Let’s not talk about it first. I’m busy!”

Then, Lin Gantang heard a beeping sound. Her dad had hung up the phone. She didn’t even have the time to ask him what dowry he was talking about.

But it didn’t matter! Lin Gantang stepped on the accelerator and headed home. She wanted to see what treasure her dad had hidden.
