Chapter 44: Your Eyes Are Finally Cured!
Lin Gantang recalled that she did not see Shi Muzhen at the riverside.
It was quite annoying to be observed and talked about in the group.
Lin Gantang opened the high school group chat. There were already 99 + unread messages and kept increasing.
Shi Muzhen commented, “Who knows if she’s eyeing the Wen family’s wealth and power? Wen Yanqing seems infatuated by her. Thankfully, Gu Zhichuan saw through her and made the distinction.”
“Is Lin Gantang willing to break up with him?”
“Even if she isn’t willing, what does it matter? Madam Gu doesn’t have any interest in her.”
“Besides her looks, she’s worthless.”
Anyone who was being talked about like this would have an ugly expression. Lin Gantang responded with a smirk, “Thank you for acknowledging my beauty.”
The lively group chat suddenly quieted down.
Lin Gantang hardly ever spoke, and they had almost forgotten she was part of the group.
Directly confronting those who were stirring up trouble, Lin Gantang retorted, “Shi Muzhen, 1 never mentioned your attempt to interfere in my relationship with Gu Zhichuan. Do you have the audacity to turn around and spread rumors about me?”
“Who was drenched and ran to North Mountain Villa, then jumped into Gu Zhichuan’s arms the moment he opened the door? Have you forgotten?”
“Why didn’t you talk about such a sensational incident?”
“I don’t care about Gu Zhichuan. You can have him if you want. After picking it up, you still want others to smell the rubbish. Aren’t you disgusting?”
“Don’t spread rumors and slander others. Be careful not to enter the hell of tongue-pulling.”
Lin Gantang’s explosive revelations ignited a storm of commotion within the group.
Ye Qiuqiu’s private message appeared.
“Well done! I’ve never liked her! I couldn’t stand it earlier, so I spoke a few words of reason. Those people, acting brainless, threw logic out the window and spewed nonsense. They even called me your lackey. It infuriated me!!”
Lin Gantang replied, “Why not leave the group? 1 joined the class group to stay connected and nurture relationships. It’s unnecessary now.”
“No, I want to see just how disgusting Shi Muzhen can get.”
Ye Qiuqiu wasn’t satisfied with the conversation, so she sneaked away to a quiet corner to call her.
Once Lin Gantang answered the call, the voice on the other end was eager, “You and Wen Yanqing, is it true?”
“It’s true.”
The voice on the other side erupted into excited shrieks, prompting Lin Gantang to move the phone away from her ear.
“Sister, your eyes have finally been cured! What caused you to change your mind and take the right path?”
Lin Gantang chuckled and recounted the events of the past few days and what happened at Qinghe Manor.
Ye Qiuqiu couldn’t contain her excitement. “So Wen Yanqing took off his clothes. How’s his physique?”
“You’re focusing on the wrong thing.”
“When I come over during my vacation, remember to treat me to a meal!”
“Snap out of it, worker.” Lin Gantang cruelly reminded her, “You used up your leave last time when you came to C City.”
“All, you evil capitalist!”
“No, I’m currently jobless.”
Ye Qiuqiu continued on the phone, “Have your dad give you some shares. The dividends should be enough for you to live on. By the way, weren’t you considering work earlier? Have you made a decision?”
“I visited the company, and honestly, I don’t like the atmosphere there. It’s busy and overwhelming, and my specialization doesn’t match. I’m completely lost.”
“Do you want to follow your brother’s path?”
“Not interested, and 1 don’t have his capabilities,” Lin Gantang stated.
“Your family’s circumstances set you apart from most people. You don’t need to work your way up from scratch. It’s a waste of time. If you don’t have lofty ambitions, consider opening a relaxed little shop. It’ll give you something to do without consuming your entire life,” Ye Qiuqiu sincerely advised.
Lin Gantang’s eyes lit up, and she smiled, “Qiuqiu, I’ve noticed every word you say gets right to the point. You’re like a life mentor now..”
