Lin Gantang didn’t know why Wen Rendong had asked her out. What couldn’t be said here?
She glanced at Wen Yanqing and then nodded at Wen Rendong.
Before she came out, she even pushed the glass of water inwards, afraid that Wen Yanqing would accidentally spill it and wet himself. She additionally straightened Wen Yanqing’s shoes so that he would be able to put them on if he got out of bed, lest he could not see or find them.
She was very attentive, and Wen Rendong was filled with emotions he could not express. He gripped the document in his hand, hoping that he had not misjudged her.
He and Lin Gantang went to the corridor, which was a distance from the ward.
Wen Rendong looked towards the ward and made sure that Wen Yanqing had not come out. Then, he looked back at Lin Gantang. After a moment of silence, he said, “When Yanqing is in the hospital, there will be a nurse to help him with his daily life. You don’t have to do it yourself. You have to take care and rest too. Don’t tire yourself out.”
“It’s just a small matter. It’s not tiring. Besides, I know Yanqing’s habits better than the nurse. He’ll feel more comfortable if I take care of him,” Lin Gantang said.
Wen Rendong saw her persistence and did not persuade her further.
“Uncle Wen, is there anything you wanted to say to me? Is it Yanqing’s injuries…” Lin Gantang was worried.
“No, Uncle has something to tell you. Take a look.” Wen Rendong handed her the document in his hand.
Lin Gantang took it and saw ‘Personal share transfer agreement’ on it. She flipped through it in confusion and frowned.
“I’ll transfer part of my shares in Shengfang Group to you. If you think it’s too little, I can raise it by another percentage,” Wen Rendong said.
“Uncle Wen, what does this mean?” Lin Gantang handed the agreement back.
Wen Rendong did not take it.
He placed his hands behind his back and looked deeply at Lin Gantang. “Yanqing’s surgery is completed. We don’t know the outcome. If he still can’t see, I hope that you can continue to accompany him for the sake of this fortune.”
“Do you think I lack money?” Lin Gantang scoffed.
“You don’t lack money, but Shengfang’s shares will make you richer. Who would complain about having more assets? This is just a little token of my appreciation. I hope you can accept it.”
“Please take it back.” Lin Gantang maintained her posture of handing over the document. “Even without this agreement, I will still accompany him and never leave him. If I accept it, it will seem that my motives are impure. What do you want Yanqing to think?”
Lin Gantang knew that Wen Rendong was probably someone who did not believe in love. Otherwise, he would not have played havoc for so many years without giving his heart away. Even if he married a wife, he would not hesitate to divorce her.
Obviously, he did not believe that love could keep the two of them together.
“My feelings for Yanqing are not because I was moved by his love for me for eight years, nor is it because I was grateful for his life-saving grace. I am clear about my feelings.” Lin Gantang’s expression was serious. “To put it bluntly, I won’t leave him even if he’s crippled, let alone blind. Can you think of our future in a better direction?”
Wen Rendong’s expression changed slightly.
He sighed imperceptibly. “But this is something that I can’t help but worry about as a father. I’ll feel more at ease if you take the shares. If Yanqing recovers, just treat it as a betrothal gift from the Wen family. No one will say anything.”
“If it’s a betrothal gift, I’ll accept it, but please send it to my father.” Lin Gantang smiled. “Even though we don’t have parents’ orders or matchmakers’ words now, we still have to go through the proper procedures, right? Since Uncle Wen has time to let his thoughts run wild, why don’t we decide on the guests for the reception? I don’t mind holding a wedding with Yanqing after he’s discharged..”
