Mentioning the small town, Lin Gantang recalled, “Yanqing, you missed our appointment.”
“What?”
“You said that when the spring flowers bloomed, you would take me back to the town to take wedding photos. Now, the flowers all over the town must have withered, right?”
A faint light in Wen Yanqing’s eyes became fixed.
He too had looked forward to it, but now…
He looked at Lin Gantang, not just through blurred vision, but feeling uneasy inside.
“I’m sorry, Tangtang.”
Seeing him feeling down, Lin Gantang scolded herself for bringing it up and immediately regretted it. She hurriedly said, “It doesn’t matter. We missed it this year, but we still have next year, and all the years to come, together.” After staying at the resort for half the day, Lin Gantang and Wen Yanqing prepared to leave.
As they drove away, Lin Gantang saw a woman in Hanfu under the shade of the trees by the roadside.
The woman looked up and met Lin Gantang’s gaze, allowing Lin Gantang to see her face clearly.
As the car passed and the woman in red was left further and further behind, Lin Gantang withdrew her gaze and said to Wen Yanqing, “I saw someone who looked like Si Tijin.”
It wasn’t surprising to see her, considering her estate was not too far from there.
Lin Gantang had hardly ever interacted with Si Tijin. She recognized her because she had met her once when she was with Yin Zhen. Although Yin Zhen was Si Tijin’s friend, they didn’t actually meet that often.
“I’ve never seen Si Tijin’s parents. Do you know what her family does?” Lin Gantang asked.
Wen Yanqing said, “I haven’t paid attention, but living at Mount Qinghe, the family must be well-off.”
But in C City, hardly anyone mentioned the Si family.
Lin Gantang wasn’t familiar with her and had no intention of digging into her background.
“I don’t want to go back yet. How about we wander downtown after getting into the city?” Wen Yanqing suggested.
Lin Gantang readily agreed, “Sure, let’s go on a date.”
Wen Yanqing, hearing her excited tone, felt his mood lifted by her and slowly began to smile.
“What would you like to eat?” Lin Gantang checked the time, and it was getting late.
“Let’s have Japanese. Shi Jun once mentioned a good restaurant, but I’ve never had the chance to go there.”
The driver dropped them off near a bustling plaza, where couples walked together, sweetly snuggled against each other.
Lin Gantang thought it would be nice to walk around, so she let the driver leave first.
They entered the restaurant.
This Japanese restaurant didn’t put on airs but had warm brown wooden structures, a combination of modern and traditional elements, creating a strong exotic atmosphere.
Since Shi Jun had specifically mentioned it to Wen Yanqing, the taste must be good. She took Wen Yanqing by the hand and headed inside, only to run into Gu Zhichuan unexpectedly.
Gu Zhichuan stopped when he saw her, a flicker of surprise crossing his eyes before he slowly contained his delight, noticing their interlocked fingers.
Wen Yanqing saw Lin Gantang stop and vaguely noticed a figure in front, then turned to look at her.
“Mr. Gu.” Lin Gantang gave a greeting.
Gu Zhichuan nodded, stepping aside to make way.
Lin Gantang thanked him and led Wen Yanqing inside. Gu Zhichuan stood still, watching her receding figure, his feet refusing to move though he had intended to leave.
The meal Lin Gantang ordered came quickly, and seeing the quiet Wen Yanqing opposite her, she suppressed a laugh and picked up a piece of sushi to bring it to his mouth.
After he finished, Lin Gantang asked, “Want anything else?”
Wen Yanqing said anything was fine, so Lin Gantang fed him another piece.
Usually, he liked to do everything himself, but today, for some reason, he let her feed him. Lin Gantang got into the spirit of feeding him, picking out whatever she found tasty.
She glanced at the wasabi on the side, quietly dipped a bit, and brought it to Wen Yanqing’s mouth..
