Chapter 815: Do You Want to Play the Rogue?
Lin Gantang didn’t sit idle at home either. She first got in touch with people to start the bookstore renovation, and then contacted Lu Xiya—the wedding planner she and Wen Yanqing had chosen—to prepare for the wedding.
During that time, their pet cats started fighting while playing, so Lin Gantang spent some time “mediating” the situation.
Before noon rolled around, Lin Gantang dressed up and was ready to go, just as the driver arrived downstairs.
Jiang Tongtong was already sitting in the back of the car; Lin Gantang directly sat next to her.
When she saw Lin Gantang’s slender, fair legs beneath her short skirt, she couldn’t help but reach out and touch them, looking envious.
Lin Gantang: “Sister-in-law, are you trying to molest me?”
Jiang Tongtong had changed from the past when a little teasing would have made her too shy to speak. Now, even though she still blushed at Lin Gantang’s teasing, she could laugh freely, “Tangtang, your legs are so pretty.”
Lin Gantang looked at Jiang Tongtong’s tightly covered legs in long pants and raised an eyebrow: “My brother doesn’t allow you to wear skirts?”
“No,” Jiang Tongtong said. “But Zhaonan prefers it when I wear long skirts.”
Lin Gantang noticed her brother’s quirk was kind of like her husband’s? Wen Yanqing also didn’t like her wearing too little.
Yet, Lin Gantang smirked, “Why should we listen to them?”
After having lunch at Beaver Square, she immediately dragged Jiang Tongtong into the stores.
She only cared about what looked good and nothing else!
Jiang Tongtong let Lin Gantang lead her on a spree, buying bandeau bras and hot shorts—whatever was cool and refreshing. Lin Gantang stuffed everything into Jiang Tongtong’s hands, and the more Jiang Tongtong bought, the more excited she became, her cheeks flushing red.
Before long, they had a full haul, and Jiang Tongtong’s eyes sparkled: “I love shopping with you; it’s so boring with my brother.”
“In the future, just find me. What does my brother know?” Lin Gantang said, carrying two bags: “Don’t worry about bringing Xiao An. If you’re tired of holding him, I’ll take over. Let’s continue shopping.”
Arm in arm, the sisters-in-law grew even closer.
“If we keep shopping, won’t Yanqing mind?” Jiang Tongtong knew that Lin Gantang was jealous when it came to Wen Yanqing and was concerned that his health issues could cause him inconvenience in life.
To her surprise, Lin Gantang said, “Yanqing is already better; there’s no need to worry too much about him.”
Jiang Tongtong opened her mouth in astonishment at the news, and then she was overjoyed: “Really? That’s great! Does Dad know? If he knows, he must be thrilled!”
“We were planning to accompany Yanqing home and tell Dad in person, but now that you know, you can also pass on the message,” Lin Gantang said with a smile.
“That’s fantastic!” Jiang Tongtong was elated for Lin Gantang: “Now that Yanqing has recovered, Tangtang, you’re going to be even happier.”
Lin Gantang felt a warm glow in her heart, seeing her family happy for her.
As they talked and walked, Jiang Tongtong suddenly tugged at Lin Gantang: “Look at the person ahead, doesn’t he look like Yanqing’s dad?”
Lin Gantang followed her discreet pointing and recognized Wen Rendong: “It’s him.”
Jiang Tongtong hesitated as she saw the woman acting intimately with Wen Rendong: “That woman next to him…”
“Is probably his lover,” Lin Gantang said nonchalantly, accustomed to such sights: “It doesn’t matter, as long as he doesn’t bring her home to disturb mine and Yanqing’s normal life.”
The Lin family had clean and simple emotions when it came to relationships, and the Jiang family’s parents had loved each other for decades. It was hard for Jiang Tongtong not to take another few glances, seeing Wen Rendong behaving like this for the first time.
The woman with Wen Rendong turned around, and Lin Gantang felt she looked familiar. After a moment, she remembered.
It was the girl who had returned Wen Rendong’s lost wallet to the Wen family’s doorstep and called for Xiao Ling.
Back then, Lin Gantang thought she was innocent and even warned her not to become a fish in Wen Rendong’s pond. Xiao Ling had firmly stated that she wouldn’t become someone who betrays love for wealth.
Lin Gantang watched Xiao Ling leaning against Wen Rendong and shook her head.
