Chapter 684: Chapter 684: You Better Rein Yourself In
She immediately struggled to break free from his grasp, using hands and feet. What’s going on, had her boyfriend’s Ren and Du meridians been unblocked overnight? Suddenly he was talking about embarrassing things.
That’s not right, his meridians had been unblocked long ago, so had he been in seclusion for practice recently?
Lin Gantang, sweating profusely, pulled back into the quilt to avoid his grasp.
Wen Yanqing, hearing her rustling, said with a smile while sitting on the bed, “Alright, I won’t tease you anymore, come downstairs for breakfast.”
Lin Gantang peeked her head out, dragging herself out slowly, “What breakfast? It’s almost time for lunch.”
She moved to the edge of the bed and saw Big Mi lying on the soft carpet on the floor, her toes hooking its sleek fur.
“Right, the full moon party for my goddaughter is the day after tomorrow, will you go with me?”
Wen Yanqing calculated the time, “I can’t go that day, I have commitments.”
“Is it something with the company? Urgent? We’ll go the day after tomorrow, stay for one night and then come back.”
“It might not be possible, I have an appointment with a very important client, and if I don’t go that day, I’ll miss out,” Wen Yanqing said apologetically, “How about I come over the evening of the day after tomorrow to join you, and then we can go back together?”
Coming over at night would be too late for the full moon party.
Lin Gantang figured it must be something very important and not postponable, after all, he rarely refused her.
What if he gets too tired rushing over after being busy?
“Then you just take care of your own business at home, no need to make the trip, I will come back early the next day,” Lin Gantang said.
After breakfast, Lin Gantang walked around the courtyard with Wen Yanqing. Ximi followed her out, at times dashing ahead, other times scurrying behind her, keeping a distance, but never straying too far alone.
Just like a little dog, affectionate, obedient, and cute, how perfect of a kitty, Lin Gantang couldn’t help but want to hold it and give it kisses.
On the day of the full moon party, Lin Gantang left early in the morning, arriving at Ye Qiuqiu’s house in H City before noon.
The Chen family set the full moon party in the evening according to local customs, hosting a few tables at a hotel to treat family and friends.
Ye Qiuqiu, having finished her postpartum confinement, heard that Lin Gantang had arrived and came out to greet her happily.
“You’ve gained weight,” Lin Gantang poked her face, “But you’re leaner than you seem in videos, geez, next time don’t fill my whole screen with your face.”
“I’ve gained over ten pounds!” Ye Qiuqiu grieved, “I miss my slender figure.”
Ye Qiuqiu led her into the room; the baby was sleeping on the bed. Lin Gantang went to look but didn’t dare to touch the baby, afraid of waking her.
“On closer inspection, I think the baby looks like your husband. What’s that on her forehead, heat rash?”
“Yeah, a couple of days ago, my mother-in-law dressed the baby too warmly and it broke out,” Ye Qiuqiu pulled up a chair for Lin Gantang to sit down, “But it’s nothing serious, just a little rash, it’ll fade away with proper care.”
Seeing Lin Gantang’s eyes constantly fixed on her daughter with an almost overflowing envious look, Ye Qiuqiu said amusingly, “Rein it in a little, you’re looking at my daughter like you want to gobble her up.”
“If only I had a daughter as well, Yanqing also likes daughters,” Lin Gantang said enviously.
Teasing her, Ye Qiuqiu said, “That’s easy, you just keep having kids until you have a daughter, after all, Wen Yanqing is rich and can afford it.”
“What do you think I am, a sow giving birth to piglets all the time?” Lin Gantang drew her gaze away from the baby and handed her a pretty, exquisite bag, “For you, a full moon gift.”
Ye Qiuqiu opened it and was nearly blinded by the shine of gold.
She gasped and quickly covered it, “Lin Gantang, have you lost your mind?”
