The food street was packed with people, creating a lively atmosphere.

It was Lin Gantang’s first time shopping here, and her face was filled with excitement and joy as she immersed herself in the crowd.

Happiness was always contagious. Wen Yanqing was in a good mood and followed her closely.

“Didn’t uncle allow you to come here?” Wen Yanqing asked, wearing a smile as he casually adjusted her collar.

“Well, not really,” Lin Gantang replied.

Lin Gantang didn’t mention that she hadn’t visited this place before because Gu Zhichuan didn’t like such places, and Mrs. Gu also looked down on the food here, considering it to be of “low class” and unsuitable for her status. She didn’t want to be used as an excuse, so she had never been here before.

Thinking about it now, she realized it had been quite foolish.

Lin Gantang made her way to the crowded food stalls, peering over people’s shoulders to see what was on offer. She spotted skewered lamb, but despite the tempting aroma, she declined since she had already eaten before coming out.

Although they didn’t buy much, they were having a great time exploring.

After a while, Lin Gantang suddenly remembered that Wen Yanqing hadn’t eaten anything tonight, which was why they had come out in search of food together.

“Are you hungry? What would you like to eat?” Lin Gantang asked.

“Over there, 1 saw a restaurant. The food should be lighter. How about we go there after we’re done here?” Wen Yanqing calmly adjusted her collar again.

Lin Gantang didn’t notice his actions. Her attention was captured by the cotton candy ahead.

The vendor was skilled, crafting simple cotton candy into various shapes like flowers, mushrooms, and hearts, making them quite attractive.

Lin Gantang purchased a cotton candy shaped like a teddy bear and held it in her hand, twirling it around as she examined it.

Wen Yanqing thought she was hesitating to eat it and watched as she took a bite out of the bear’s ear.

Wen Yanqing chuckled.

“It tastes just like regular cotton candy,” Lin Gantang commented.

Wen Yanqing gazed at the candy residue on the corner of her mouth. “May 1 try it?”

Wen Yanqing wrapped his arm around her waist and leaned in, allowing Lin Gantang to feed him the other half of the bear’s ear.

“Indeed, the taste is pretty average,” Lin Gantang earnestly reviewed.

Wen Yanqing didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Under her puzzled gaze, he took a bite.

The two of them returned to the entrance and entered a restaurant, where they requested a private room.

After browsing for a while, Lin Gantang began to feel a bit hungry when their tea snacks arrived.

She spotted some snacks on the plate that resembled little chicks and the translucent nine-layered cake. She snapped a photo and sent it to Jiang Tongtong, “Eating out, would you like me to get you some?”

“Anything else?” Jiang Tongtong replied.

Lin Gantang took a photo of the dishes and sent it over.

“Bring a set of all the cute ones.”

She had a feeling it was Lin Zhaonan, who was being quite presumptuous.

Lin Gantang circled the prices in red and sent another message. “Well, that’s can but my pocket money might not be enough. Besides, the Maybach used for delivery is quite expensive in terms of the delivery fee.”

“Cash on delivery.”

After some calculations, Lin Gantang felt that there was no hope for her pocket money in the future.

Oh well, she could earn money herself from now on.

After she earned money and showed filial piety to her father. Lin Zhaonan should go to the sidelines.

Lin Gantang then called the waiter over and ordered several items to be packed.

After Wen Yanqing had finished eating, he noticed that Lin Gantang had once again revealed half of her shoulder.

It looked beautiful, but why was she showing it to others?

“These days, the temperature has dropped. Aren’t you feeling cold?” Wen Yanqing gestured towards Lin Gantang’s shoulder.

“It’s alright. It looks good,” Lin Gantang said while struggling with the last two steamed chestnuts. “These are a bit difficult to peel.”

Wen Yanqing stood up, and moved to sit beside her, and Lin Gantang shifted to make room for him. “What’s wrong?” she asked.

Wen Yanqing wrapped his arms around her tightly, planted a kiss on her shoulder, and left a mark. Then, he let go of her and picked up the chestnut, smiling gently. “Your boyfriend will help you peel it.”

Lin Gantang stared at the strawberry mark on her shoulder, her face turning red. She quickly pulled her clothes up to cover it..
