Chapter 889: 889: The Discipline Button, Only to Be Unfastened For You

The Fang family is a pit that devours people, so Che Qin had to flee even if it meant breaking with her father.

As for Tan Huiya, who sent herself into this pit out of greed, she was now suffering the consequences.

Jiang Tongtong didn’t know much about the Fang family, but the thought of how brutally the woman had fought earlier scared her, “Was the person who hit her her stepdaughter?”

Lin Gantang nodded, “Her name is Fang Ya, I’ve met her at the Taekwondo club. She knows a few moves, otherwise Tan Huiya couldn’t have been so defenseless. If you ever encounter such a situation by yourself in the future, the first thing to do is to get away immediately to avoid accidental injury.”

Jiang Tongtong was moved by how Lin Gantang had shielded her behind his back just earlier.

“The Fang family is really chaotic, who knows what will become of Tan Huiya.” Jiang Tongtong sighed.

“One must bear the consequences of their own choices. The affairs of the Fang family are just a microcosm of the wealthy clans. Some households may look bright and shiny on the outside, but who knows how many dirty deeds are hidden beneath the surface.”

Jiang Tongtong lamented, “I’m glad the people in my family are kind. Otherwise, someone like me, who can’t fight or compete, definitely wouldn’t be able to live peacefully.”

“Kind?” Lin Gantang raised an eyebrow, “Have you forgotten how I bullied you into tears?”

“But now you’re really nice.”

He would go shopping with her, attend music concerts with her, and help her deal with Lin Zhaonan’s admirers.

He would whisper secrets to her like a little sister, put effort into preparing little cookies she loved, and he was also very gentle with Little Yi’an.

Lin Gantang just smiled, “The truly kind person in the family is you, sister-in-law.”

The music concert had already ended, and Lin Gantang and Jiang Tongtong were walking out with the sparse crowd.

Lin Gantang helped her adjust a hair ornament that had slipped, and was about to leave when he saw Gu Zhichuan approaching briskly.

Jiang Tongtong clung to Lin Gantang’s arm, blocking Gu Zhichuan’s path with her own body, thinking, why hasn’t he left yet?

However, Gu Zhichuan didn’t continue forward, keeping a proper distance, his words revealing a hint of concern, “Are you alright?”

“What could be wrong with me?” Lin Gantang was puzzled.

Gu Zhichuan breathed a sigh of relief.

After Lin Gantang and Jiang Tongtong had left, he too had gone outside. He knew he should go, but he couldn’t bear to leave right away after finally encountering Lin Gantang, so he waited outside.

As the crowd dispersed and he still didn’t see them come out, he waited and waited until an ambulance rushed by with a stretcher. His heart raced, and he went back inside to look for them, only to not find them. Now seeing Lin Gantang out safe, he couldn’t help running up to check on her.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Tangtang, let’s go have dinner,” Jiang Tongtong urged, holding onto Lin Gantang.

“Okay.” Lin Gantang said a plain goodbye to Mr. Gu and left with Jiang Tongtong.

Gu Zhichuan didn’t persist, nodding at the two of them. Jiang Tongtong was quite surprised, because Gu Zhichuan had come over in such a rush earlier, she thought he would speak up to stop them.

Lin Gantang and Jiang Tongtong went to Beaver Square as planned and received a video call from Wen Yanqing while dining. After chatting briefly, Jiang Tongtong also greeted Wen Yanqing.

“After we finish shopping, I’ll head back with Tongtong and text you when we get home.”

Wen Yanqing didn’t ask, but Lin Gantang had already learned to report his itinerary proactively.

“Did you finish today’s work?” Lin Gantang could see from the video that he was in a casual dining restaurant, “Aren’t you going to unbutton your collar during your personal time? It’s the middle of summer, it must be hot.”

“I’m outside, with people coming and going,” Wen Yanqing said with a light smile, “Moral code button, I’ll only unbutton it for you.”
