Gu Hejun didn’t drink. “There’s no need to entertain me. With the relationship between our two families, there’s no need to do such frivolous things. Don’t you think so, Mr. Wen?”
Wen Yanqing sat down and smiled. “Calling Mr. Wen is too formal. Since our family is close and Tangtang calls you brother, you might as well call me brother-in-law.”
Gu Hejun was dumbstruck.
Lin Gantang took out the chess pieces. She felt that the atmosphere between the pair was a little off. She handed the items to Gu Hejun. “Is there anything else to bring over?”
Gu Hejun took it from her. “Not at the moment. If Uncle Lin wants something, I’ll come over again.”
Wen Yanqing asked Lin Gantang to come to his side. He smiled and said, “There is no need for A4r. Gu to personally run errands. Xiaofu, if Mr. Gu needs anything in future, you can make a trip over. Mr. Gu is busy with many things, so it’s not good for us to trouble him.”
Wen Yanqing called out with great familiarity to the Lin family’s helpers. The helpers all treated him as the son-in-law of their employer, and Xiaofu crisply agreed to it.
Gu Hejun picked up the chessboard and stood up. He said to Gantang, “I’ll be leaving first. I’ll look for you again.”
“Shall I send you off?” Wen Yanqing stood, completely acting like the host.
“No need,” Gu Hejun rejected.
“Alright, the road is slippery in the snow. Mr. Gu, be careful,” Wen Yanqing reminded him with concern.
Gu Hejun felt uncomfortable and turned around to take a look before leaving the living room.
He saw Wen Yanqing sitting on the sofa with his arm around Lin Gantang’s shoulder, watching him. When he saw him looking over, he even smiled at him.
D*mn!
Gu Hejun left with a dark expression.
Lin Gantang didn’t notice the exchange between the two of them. Her attention was attracted by the tabby cat in the carrier.
She opened it and the tabby cat obediently came out for her to carry it.
“Why did you suddenly come over tonight? And you brought it with you.” Lin Gantang gently stroked the cat’s paws. The paws were fluffy and white like mangosteen. It was extremely cute.
“I’m going overseas for a business trip. I brought Little Leopard Flower here for you to take good care of it,” Wen Yanqing said.
“Business trip?” Lin Gantang raised her head. “Where are you going? For how long?”
“About half a month to Country Y. 1’11 try my best to come back as soon as possible.” Wen Yanqing patted the tabby’s head. The cat raised its head comfortably and narrowed its eyes. “There shouldn’t be anything else to settle after I’m done with work. I can spend the new year with you in peace.”
“Do you want to come to spend the new year at my house?” Lin Gantang smiled again at the mention of the new year.
He didn’t like the Wen family and had always spent the Lunar New Year alone at the Yuanshui River.
“Alright, Uncle won’t have any objections, right?” Wen Yanqing smiled gently.
“What does he have against it? He’s earnestly wishing for you to be his biological son.” Lin Gantang complained. Then, she hugged the tabby to her chest and kissed it. “My cat is so cute! I’ll bring you to work tomorrow.”
Wen Yanqing paused for a moment. He pinched the cat’s neck and pulled it back. “Don’t kiss it.”
“Why?” Lin Gantang was puzzled. “It’s so cute!”
Wen Yanqing explained seriously, “Cats don’t like to be close to people, like dogs do. It’s best not to use kissing methods that cats don’t understand when petting cats. Be careful that it bites or scratches you.”
Lin Gantang was skeptical. Really?
“It’s about time to sterilize the cat. Going into heat will increase the risk of illness.”
“It’s still a child!” Lin Gantang was shocked.
“Oh, it’s not its turn yet. Can you make appointments for the cats in your bookstore?”
Lin Gantang quickly snatched her little cutie back.. She never expected her boyfriend to be this kind of person, to take action on his own child!
