Chapter 967: 967: What's Going On With Your Increasingly Bright Eyes?
After My Rebirth, I Escaped My Marriage
Over the years, Lin Gantang had witnessed numerous power struggles within wealthy families, and Grandpa Yin was definitely one of the most ruthless she had ever seen.
Now, his grandson had met with trouble, his great-grandson was diagnosed with a genetic disease, and on top of failing to reach Yin Zhen, Grandpa Yinâs spirits had collapsed. He was hospitalized with tubes inserted, likely unable to leave for a while.
After chatting with Yin Zhen, Lin Gantang carefully stored away all the tokens of affection she had sent.
Big Mi and Meow Million each claimed a box as their territory. Lin Gantang, with a bit of a wicked sense of humor, covered them both up and laughed heartily as the two cats came out looking utterly baffled.
Big Mi moved from one box to another and stepped on Meow Million in the process, pushing his wife aside, which infuriated her and made her lash out with her âcat punches.â
Lin Gantang picked up the famous painting to steer clear of the battleground and took out some snacks, sitting at a safe distance to avoid getting caught in the fray, ready to watch the cat drama unfold.
A ripping sound was heard, and both cats turned their heads to look at the snack bag she had just opened in her hand.
Lin Gantang: â? Youâre stopping the fight just like that? I had my spectating pose all ready.â
In the afternoon, at the appointed time, the Lin familyâs driver arrived with Jiang Tongtong to join Lin Gantang for a shopping trip.
Jiang Tongtong had been home for a while and wanted to stroll through the mall.
Lin Gantang picked up Little Yiâan, whoâhad grown heavier again.
âXiao An, you canât squirm around, your auntie has a little baby in her belly,â Jiang Tongtong reminded Lin Yiâan gently and softly.
Often returning to the Lin family, Little Yiâan had grown quite fond of his aunt who always brought him tasty treats and fun toys. He was not shy around her at all and was very willing to be held by her.
âSuch a good boy,â said Lin Gantang. She hadnât held him for long before the child started to move around without restraint, and she was also worried that Yiâan, in his excitement, might kick her stomach.
Jiang Tongtong took Little Yiâan back and said, âI didnât intend to bring him out, but he threw a fit when he saw me leaving.â
âItâs good to take him out for a walk.â Since he was her own family, Lin Gantang had no reason to be averse to him. She reached out to tease Lin Yiâan, âStay with your auntie, and she will buy you some snacks.â
Little Yiâan grinned, revealing a few small white teeth.
Upon arriving at the mall, the two made their way to the baby products floor.
Lin Gantang asked, âWhat are you looking to buy, sister-in-law? It must be quite draining to look after Yiâan at home, wouldnât it be better to have someone deliver what you need directly to your house?â
âThereâs nothing specific I want to buy; Iâm just bored and wanted to look around,â Jiang Tongtong replied.
Lin Gantang: Got it. So, you mean weâll end up buying a lot of things by accident.
Cradling Lin Yiâan with both arms, Jiang Tongtong led Lin Gantang to the baby products section, âDid you get the diapers? You need the newborn size.â
It wasnât just baby productsâLin Gantang was dragged all over by her and ended up picking a bunch of postpartum items as well.
After looking around, Lin Gantang noticed childrenâs clothes hanging not too far away and went over to take a look.
âThese are so beautiful, such adorable little clothes,â Lin Gantang could not let go.
âThis size would fit Xiao An; your baby wonât be able to wear them yet.â Jiang Tongtong leaned in, âAh, little girlsâ clothes are so pretty, why does Xiao An have to be a boy.â
âWhat size is Xiao An wearing now?â Lin Gantang asked, holding up a down jacket to Lin Yiâanâs body for size.
Jiang Tongtong kept looking, quietly looking, and then as if discovering a new world, exclaimed, âXiao An might look really good in girlsâ clothes?â
Lin Gantang: â?â Whatâs with that increasingly bright glint in your eye?
âNo, I bought these for Qianqian; she is two months younger than Xiao An.â So she was using Little Yiâan to compare the length of the clothes.
However, Jiang Tongtong wasnât listening to explanations; her claw stretched out, grabbing a little skirt from nearby.
Lin Gantang: â¦
Yiâan, your auntie feels like sheâs betraying you.
