Chapter 91: Hurry Up!
Not long after Lin Gantang’s post, Ye Qiuqiu’s first comment was, “Pfft! Hahahahahaha…”
She was probably laughing on the other end.
Wen Yanqing quietly liked the post, causing a flurry of reactions in the comments.
Shortly after, Lin Zhaonan made a post as well. He concealed some personal information on the prenatal examination form and added the following text, “The crime of defamation involves intentionally fabricating and spreading false information with the intent to demean someone’s character and harm their reputation. Those engaged in rumor-mongering that constitutes defamation may face penalties including imprisonment for up to three years, detention, surveillance, or deprivation of political rights.”
So, it was Jiang Tongtong who was pregnant? It wasn’t unusual for Lin Gantang to be present in the Obstetrics Department as a companion.
People quickly fell silent, and Lin Zhaonan’s warning was taken seriously. Nobody wanted to receive a legal letter from the Lin family.
Lin Gantang was amused by her brother’s earnestness and asked him, “Brother, are you defending me?”
“What do you mean by defending you? I’m simply stating the facts.” Lin Zhaonan replied. “Since you’ve clarified things, I’ll make a post as well.”
He analyzed further, “Someone probably wants to stir up trouble between our family and the Wen family. I’ve seen even dirtier tactics in the business world. This is nothing.”
“It’s similar to what I suspected,” Lin Gantang replied.
“Don’t worry, I’ll find out who’s behind all this commotion. You should just go about your business and not concern yourself with these matters.”
Lin Zhaonan took on the trouble himself, allowing her to be carefree. Lin Gantang was deeply touched.
Her father had been her pillar of support, but as he grew older, her brother gradually took on that role, sheltering her from harm.
She regretted missing out on so much in her previous life but was grateful for the opportunity in this life to give back to her family in any way she could.
A few days later, Lin Gantang received a package from Ye Qiuqiu.
Lin Gantang opened it, and inside were glossy winter dates, so fresh that even the leaves were vibrant green.
Ye Qiuqiu had said on the phone, “Gantang, please don’t keep sending me things. They’re quite expensive. I don’t have much to offer as a broke person. These dates are from H City, and they’re incredibly delicious. Please don’t hesitate to enjoy them.”
Lin Gantang washed a few of the dates. They were large with thin skin and thick flesh. “They’re delicious, sweet, and crispy.”
“That’s right, 1 love them too!” Ye Qiuqiu exclaimed. “I picked the whole box, selecting the biggest and sweetest ones just for you. Even my husband doesn’t get this treatment!”
Lin Gantang chuckled. “Thank you. I’ll share them with my family. My dad will love them.”
“Please say hello to Uncle for me. These dates are high in vitamin C, so they’d be good for your sister-in-law, especially if she’s pregnant.”
“Alright, are you pregnant?” Lin Gantang asked casually.
“I’m waiting for you. When the time comes, we’ll have a baby together.”
“What are you talking about?”
“Wen Yanqing! Get him! Quickly!”
“Goodbye.” Lin Gantang hung up.
Then, a message popped up on WeChat, “If you eat my dates, you better put in some effort for me. Learn from a married girl like me and loosen up!”
Lin Gantang responded with an image of someone being kicked away.
Lin Gantang had Auntie Zhang wash all the winter dates. Just as she was about to instruct the servants to wait, Bei Bei called to ask if she was at home and requested that she open the door to let her in.
Lin Gantang told the servants to wait for her downstairs. It didn’t take long before Bei Bei appeared at her doorstep, accompanied by Xu Bingxi.
Perhaps because this was Bei Bel’s first time visiting the Lin family, she seemed unusually quiet.
“I’m the only one home. Would you like something to drink?” Lin Gantang asked.
Seated on the sofa, Bei Bei sat up straight and replied, “No… thank you.”
Observing Bei Bei’s uneasy expression upon entering, Lin Gantang asked, “Is there a wild dog chasing after you? You seem quite nervous.”
Bei Bei still seemed jittery. “When Bingxi and I went to the secret room, we realized that someone had been following our car when we returned. We finally managed to lose that car. Thinking that you lived nearby, we hurried over to hide..”
