Lin Gantang didn’t guess. She put down the snacks. “I’m not drinking anymore. I’ll go back since it’s about time.”
“So fast? I haven’t had enough fun with you yet.” Bei Bei looked towards Wen Yanqing. “Your boyfriend is still chatting with someone. Why don’t you stay a little longer?”
“Then I’ll go to the bathroom first. I’ll be back later,” Lin Gantang said.
Hearing this, Bei Bei let go of Lin Gantang.
There were too many people on the first floor. When Lin Gantang walked to the corridor on the second floor, she heard the sound of footsteps following her. She was so alarmed that her heart raced. She turned around and realized that it was Gu Zhichuan.
“Why are you here?” He wasn’t familiar with Tang Shuming, was he?
“I came with my friend. I heard that you were coming, so I wanted to come and see you,” Gu Zhichuan explained when he saw Lin Gantang’s puzzled expression.
“See me? It’s very meaningless for you to do this. What’s the use of seeing me?” Lin Gantang asked. “It’s just a waste of time.”
“It’s useful. I’m very happy to see you.” Gu Zhichuan’s eyes dimmed. “It doesn’t matter. It’s my time I’m wasting. I won’t force you to give me a result. If I don’t do anything, I’ll regret it in the future, right?”
He saw that Lin Gantang’s eyes had turned cold. He knew that she was about to say something that would make him feel uncomfortable. He cut her off first. “Just like how you chased me in the past. I didn’t chase you away, did I?”
Lin Gantang’s words were stuck in her throat.
“You didn’t eat the snacks I packed for you. Do you not like them?” Gu Zhichuan asked.
So it was him who had looked for Hong Shuangying. Lin Gantang understood and said, “I don’t like macarons. Besides, your behavior will make my boyfriend misunderstand. Please don’t do it again.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Lin Gantang heard a sneer from behind.
“Lin Gantang, you’re good at pretending. You have Wen Yanqing, yet you still make other men think about you. You’re really capable.”
Lin Gantang looked at the person who spoke harshly and realized that it was actually Lin Jingqi.
Her uncle’s son.
The feud between the two families made Lin Jingqi dislike his second uncle’s family, especially now that his father had been defeated and was in a sorry state, Lin Jingqi was even more furious. When he saw Lin Mingzhuo’s family member, his displeasure was beyond words.
Gan Wenyu held his arm and looked like she was watching a good show.
Lin Jingqi said, “Your father used to say that you’re useless. But aren’t you quite amazing? You’re the one who can control the Wen and Gu family’s heirs and make them revolve around you. No wonder your family is getting more and more powerful. My dad lost helplessly.”
“Aren’t you embarrassed to reveal what your father did?” Lin Gantang asked coldly. “Lin Jingqi, I called you ‘brother’ during the New Year. I guess it can be considered treating you respectfully. Did you eat cow dung today to say such things?”
“If you acted proper, would I say anything bad?” Lin Jingqi glanced at Gu Zhichuan. “Back then, when you were pursuing Gu Zhichuan, Wen Yanqing was your backup. Now that Wen Yanqing is in your hands, you want Gu Zhichuan to be your backup?”
“Brother.” He looked at Gu Zhichuan mockingly. “And you don’t find it disgusting.”
“Mr. Lin, please show some respect.” Gu Zhichuan looked unhappy.
“Men understand men. Mr. Gu, stop pretending.” He looked at Lin Gantang and suddenly smiled. He immediately pushed Lin Gantang into Gu Zhichuan’s arms.
Gu Zhichuan reached out to hold her so that Lin Gantang wouldn’t fall.
“You’re pretending to be sanctimonious. Now, I want to ask you, do you feel happy hugging? Actually, you don’t know how much you want it to be like this, right?” Lin Jingqi laughed out loud. “Take it as me helping you out. You don’t have to thank me. Who does Wen Yanqing think he is? If you like her, then go after her. She should be your woman in the first place, right?”
Gu Zhichuan tightened his grip on Lin Gantang..
