Chapter 168: Dream On
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Le Yu, who had gone through a lot to get the phone number, had been kicked out by his father again.
Le Yu hugged the book that Mr. Lin had kindly given him and slumped on the reading table in the cat bookstore.
He felt too embarrassed, not because he had been chased out of the house again, but because of his father’s bad idea.
You’re already lucky enough that I gave you a number and a chance. You still want to ask for more?
Dream on. Le Yu used the books as a pillow and slept soundly on the table.
The employees in the shop all knew Le Yu and did not disturb him. Le Yu slept until evening, and his face was covered in marks from the books.
Lin Gantang knew that he was here, but she didn’t greet him when she saw that he was asleep. She introduced the details of the American Shorthair in the video and received many replies after posting it.
“The cat can be adopted? Really?”
Lin Gantang replied, “This is also the original intention of the bookstore; to help more cats find their own forever home. However, this is a two-way choice. If you like it and want to take it away, you have to get its consent.”
“Others open at 10 am, can’t the cat bookstore be earlier? The last time I went there, it was already in vain.”
Lin Gantang smiled. “The main page has the specific opening hours of the bookstore. Cats need sufficient rest. Otherwise, it’s not good for their health. You guys definitely don’t like a boss who tries his best to exploit his employees, right?”
“It’s too vivid. I’m not even living as well as a cat.”
“Business? Have you finally realized that your main business is selling books? *dog head emoticon*”
Lin Gantang tagged the person and replied, “But no, the backend has classified me as a pet blogger. I was so scared that I quickly went online.”
There was a string of ‘haha’s below.
Lin Gantang put away the video and started to do other things.
She saw Che Qin standing in front of the bookshelf, carefully selecting books on modern art history.
“How have you been recently?” Lin Gantang helped take the two books from her hands.
“Thank you.” Che Qin handed it over to her and continued to pick more from the bookshelf. “It’s pretty good. I’m adapting well to the job. Although the salary is average, it’s much more fulfilling than before.”
“Is Zhang Rongqing still coming to find you?” Lin Gantang asked.
“She did look for me once to borrow money, but 1 had just started working so 1 didn’t have spare cash. At that time, she was quite fierce. My dad gave me some money, so I lent it to her.” Che Qin sighed, “I’m really afraid she’ll ask again.”
“You should avoid her. She’s on my blacklist.” Lin Gantang reminded.
Che Qin nodded.
Che Qin found a good book and planned to flip through it before paying the bill. After all, it was boring to go home so early. Her father always urged her to bring her partner home. If they were satisfied, she could get married directly. Che Qin was a little conflicted and wanted to do more.
She took a seat and happened to see Le Yu who had woken up beside her, so she went to greet him.
This time, Le Yu recognized her. His gaze fell on her legs. “Is your leg okay? I previously knocked into you.”
“I’ve recovered a long time ago. I’m fine. You’re here to help Gantang again?”
Le Yu had already learned to give up struggling. “Yes, I was kicked out of the house and came to work in the bookstore.”
“Your dad, he…” Che Qin was surprised.
“He’s not my dad.” Le Yu wanted to wipe away the tears in his heart.
Che Qin thought that he had really been chased away and said sympathetically, “You’re so pitiful.”
Indeed, he was still being ordered around by his father at such an age; it was too pitiful. Le Yu buried his head in his book.
Che Qin looked at the despair on the person’s face and shot him a sympathetic look.
Lin Gantang didn’t expect to see Zhang Rongqing again so soon after they mentioned her.
The next day, when Lin Gantang was rummaging through damaged books, Zhang Rongqing leaned against the opposite bookshelf and kept looking at her..
