Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Lin Gantang was about to tease Wen Yanqing and ask him what he meant when she saw him smile. “Uncle and I thought the same – I was planning to bring Tangtang back today.”
Lin Gantang didn’t expect her boyfriend to arrange everything for her.
“Are you going now or in the afternoon? If you’re going in the afternoon, let’s eat before you go. You’re getting married soon anyway. No one will say anything about Gantang if she has New Year’s Eve dinner at your house tonight.” Mr. Lin was fretted.
Wait, what did he mean getting married soon?
Wen Yanqing did not seem to think that her father had said anything wrong. He said harmoniously, “We’ll come back for dinner tonight. I heard that Uncle is going to cook personally. Gantang has been looking forward to it for a long time.”
Lin Gantang was dumbstruck. No, she didn’t look forward to it at all!
“Since that’s the case, you guys should go and return early.” Mr. Lin chortled.
His son-in-law was so sensible. Of course, he wanted his daughter to accompany him for New Year’s Eve dinner.
As for Old Wen? His son’s heart is with my Lin family. What does it have to do with me? Haha.
At the Wen residence.
Aunt Zhong was busy in the kitchen while Wen Rendong looked at the door expectantly from time to time.
Ever since Wen Yanqing had told him that he was bringing Lin Gantang back, he had already instructed his staff to prepare for it, and the smile on his face had never faded.
His son was bringing his girlfriend back. Firstly, he was happy that his son’s relationship had reached the point where they were meeting each other’s parents – they were probably not far from getting married.
Secondly, parents. Therefore, Wen Yanqing still treated him as his father, right?
Moreover, the Lin family’s conditions were good, and they were considered well-matched. This outcome could not be better.
This was Lin Gantang’s first time visiting the Wen residence, where Wen Yanqing’s father lived.
The interior and exterior of the Wen residence was decorated in a magnificent European style. The soft furnishings looked very beautiful.
Wen Rendong lived alone here all year round. He didn’t even have a pet, and the servants at home had arranged other accommodations.
No matter how large the area, no matter how luxurious the furnishing, it could not hide the fact that it was deserted.
Wen Yanqing held Lin Gantang’s hand as he entered and lightly greeted him ‘Dad’.
“Uncle Wen.” Lin Gantang smiled politely.
She felt that it was rather novel. When she had first met Mr. and Mrs. Gu, she had wanted to pander to and fawn over them. Now that she was facing Wen Yanqing’s father, she subconsciously wanted to leave a good impression.
Wen Rendong was not as dignified as Gu Guoliang, who liked to keep a straight face, nor was he as harsh as Mrs. Gu, who liked to nitpick.
His smile was very amiable, like an ordinary elder, and he also personally poured her some water.
“I’ll call you Gantang like your father does.” Wen Rendong sat down opposite Wen Yanqing and smiled. “It’ll be our first time having a meal together and it’s your first time here. Why don’t you let Yanqing show you around the house?”
“We won’t be eating. We’ll be going back to Gantang’s house…” Wen Yanqing said.
“Alright,” Lin Gantang immediately interrupted Wen Yanqing. “Sorry to trouble you, Uncle.” She didn’t want to eat her father’s cooking at all.
Wen Yanqing listened to Lin Gantang and did not say anything else when Lin Gantang said that they were staying.
Lin Gantang saw the obvious joy on Wen Rendong’s face.
Wen Yanqing was cold to his father, but he was already so happy just to have a meal with him.
Wen Yanqing and Wen Rendong had nothing to talk about. He sat down for a while before leaving the living room with Lin Gantang.
He hadn’t returned to this place for a long time. Although the rooms had everything, there were very few personal and trivial items. One didn’t need to guess to know that they were at Yuanshui River.
“I want to learn how to swim,” Lin Gantang said as she looked down at the pool from the balcony. “But I’m afraid of water.”
She hadn’t been afraid at first, but she had died in the sea in her previous life and almost drowned in Qinghe Manor, so she harbored a fear in her heart.
“Don’t be afraid. I’ll teach you.” Wen Yanqing suddenly smiled gently..
