Lin Gantang let go of the tabby with a frown and looked downstairs.

She couldn’t see her.

She said, “I’ll go and take a look. It won’t look good if she makes a scene in the bookstore.”

Lin Gantang went downstairs and realized that the person Qian Ruoxi was talking about was actually Mrs. Gu. Mrs. Gu was waiting with Shi Muzhen, looking a little impatient.

The last time Mrs. Gu had seen Lin Gantang was in the hospital. At that time, Lin Gantang had been ashen after getting injured and losing blood. Now that she had recovered, she looked at her glowing face and radiant eyes and muttered, “Why is she getting better and better looking? No wonder my son suddenly wants to go back to her.”

She thought of what she wanted to say and retracted the impatient expression on her face. She glanced at the customers in the shop and said, “There are many people here. Let’s talk outside.”

Lin Gantang was also worried that Mrs. Gu would cause trouble in the shop, so she nodded.

Mrs. Gu walked out and saw that Shi Muzhen was still following her. She frowned. “Wait for me here. I have something to say to Gantang. What are you following me for?”

Lin Gantang had already left. Shi Muzhen was not afraid that she would hear her words. She told Mrs. Gu, “Lin Gantang is quite powerful now. I’m afraid that you’ll be at a disadvantage.”

“What can she do to me?” Mrs. Gu didn’t mind. This little girl; all along, she had been the one bullying Lin Gantang.

Seeing that Mrs. Gu had made up her mind, Shi Muzhen decided not to follow her. She stood at the door, wondering if she could catch a few words.

It was not easy for Gu Zhichuan to cut ties with that Feng girl, so she had to seize the opportunity. As for Lin Gantang, she was merely someone from Gu Zhichuan’s past. She had been the one who had instigated Mrs. Gu to come over. Now that Lin Gantang would hear Mrs. Gu’s lecture, she would naturally hate the Gu family even more.

The further she went, the better. She hoped more than anyone that Lin Gantang and Wen Yanqing would stick together and not separate, lest Gu Zhichuan had another chance.

Mrs. Gu did not lecture her as Shi Muzhen had expected. The two of them came to a stop outside the bookstore. Mrs. Gu sized her up and smiled. “I came to look for you yesterday, but you weren’t around. I finally met you today.”

In Lin Gantang’s memory, Mrs. Gu had never shown her such a good attitude before. However, it was probably just an act. After all, Lin Gantang had clearly seen her testy expression when she went downstairs earlier.

“Mrs. Gu, why are you looking for me?” Lin Gantang asked.

“Zhichuan is stubborn and rigid. He won’t listen to me, so I have to come and disturb you. You know that he’s single now, right? He looked for you many times, so I was a little worried. After all, you guys…”

Once Mrs. Gu opened her mouth, Lin Gantang understood. In the past, Mrs. Gu did not like her, and now, Mrs. Gu still did not like her.

“Mrs. Gu, you’re worrying too much. I have a boyfriend now,” Lin Gantang said. “I’m about to get married. What are you worried about?”

Mrs. Gu was relieved to hear that Lin Gantang had given up on her son. But who was Lin Gantang’s current boyfriend? Wen Yanqing was more outstanding than her son in every aspect.

After Lin Gantang had broken up with her son, she had found a better man. Mrs. Gu was not that magnanimous, so of course she felt uncomfortable.

Lin Gantang didn’t want to see her, but Mrs. Gu didn’t want to see her either. “I’m not saying anything about you. It’s just… If you’ve broken up, you’ve broken up, right? Zhichuan is being unreasonable. Can you explain it to him clearly?”

Lin Gantang felt that it was ridiculous. Hadn’t she made herself clear to Gu Zhichuan?

“You know that your son is unreasonable. How else do you want me to explain it clearly? Pry open his skull to control his thoughts?” Lin Gantang mocked.

“You…” Mrs. Gu swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth. She forced a smile and said, “He should give up after you and Wen Yanqing get married.”

Heh.

The one who was laughing in anger was Lin Gantang. This was the first time she had seen someone being urged to get married by her ex’s mother..
