Lin Gantang didn’t dare to wear off-the-shoulder clothes anymore. She even pushed the small straps that were meant to be worn with outerwear in autumn to the corner of the wardrobe.
When she got back home to take a shower, she couldn’t help but rub the strawberry mark. The more she rubbed, the redder it became. She quickly changed back into her regular long-sleeved pajamas.
Jiang Tongtong liked the snacks Lin Gantang brought back from the restaurant and came to thank her.
“Thank you, Tangtang. There’s a new pastry shop near my workplace, and they make delicious layered cakes. Do you prefer durian or mango flavor?” Jiang Tongtong asked with anticipation.
Tangtang used to not even look at her, but now she would bring her food. She was very happy.
Lin Gantang didn’t care about the flavor, only the price. “Which one is more expensive?”
After all, the person who claimed to pay upon delivery had acted as if nothing happened.
Was she short of money for snacks? She just wanted to vent her frustration!
Jiang Tongtong understood and replied, “1’11 buy them tomorrow. You should get some rest when it gets dark.”
After Jiang Tongtong left, Lin Gantang sat back down to apply moisturizer. Ye Qiuqiu messaged her, saying that she and her husband would come to the bookstore on its opening day.
Lin Gantang was quite pleased with this.
She left the bedside lamp on and patted her pillow, preparing to sleep. Then, she noticed that there was a black card underneath it.
Lin Gantang examined the card, front and back, and was sure she hadn’t seen it before. When had this card appeared on her bed?
Today, Wen Yanqing had visited her room.
Lin Gantang picked up her phone and took a picture to send to Wen Yanqing, “You left something at my place.”
Her phone vibrated, and she checked the message.
“It’s not left behind, I gave it to you.”
Following that, Wen Yanqing sent her a string of bank card passwords.
“I heard you say Uncle doesn’t give you pocket money.”
Lin Gantang’s heart raced:
“Put it in your bag, keep it if you don’t need it.”
Lin Gantang followed his instructions and put the card in her bag, but she intended to return it to him when the opportunity arose.
However, the feeling of having a boyfriend who gave her money to spend… was simply mind-boggling! Lin Gantang couldn’t help but hug her blanket tightly and roll around.
The preparations for the bookstore’s opening were complete. The three cats had been brought to the bookstore in advance to acclimate to the environment.
On the opening day, Bei Bei didn’t attend but sent an opening flower basket to the cat bookstore.
“I’m sorry, Gantang. There’s been some progress regarding the stalking issue. Once it’s resolved, I’ll come to support you,” Bei Bei said over the phone.
“It’s okay. Your safety is the top priority,” Lin Gantang reassured her.
Mr. Lin and Lin Zhaonan had no plans to interfere with the bookstore’s operations. They were in the middle of discussions for an important company project, but Lin Gantang didn’t want them to come and potentially disrupt the cooperation.
Noticing that Lin Gantang hadn’t been hanging out with her friends recently, her former friends came to join the excitement upon learning about the bookstore’s opening.
The two-story bookstore was spacious and well-lit. Books were neatly arranged on the shelves, covering a wide range of genres.
The most eye-catching features were the cat climbing frames and the adjacent cat grass area. There was even a spot by the floor-to-ceiling windows for sunbathing.
The seating was also very comfortable. Just imagine reading a book while cuddling an adorable kitten… Oh my, what a blissful life it would be!
Xu Bingxi looked around and sighed. “You’ve put a lot of thought into this place, though there are a few cats.”
“There will be more. I’ve already arranged to visit other places to see more cats,” Lin Gantang replied.
“Oh, I see,” Xu Bingxi said casually, then asked, “Bei Bei likes reading comics. I’d like to find a few hardcover editions for her. Do you have any here?”
“I’ll take you to the second floor; you can find them there.”
Le Yu had just entered and, upon seeing Lin Gantang leading Xu Bingxi upstairs, he immediately shouted, “Lin Gantang, stop!”
He didn’t stop Lin Gantang but instead called others over.
“May 1 help you?”
A warm voice came from the side. Le Yu turned around and was shocked. “Wen Wen Wen Wen Yanqing! Why are you here?”
Wen Yanqing smiled and put on the apron for the Cat Bookstore. “Part-time job.”
Goodness! Was this world going mad?
Le Yu’s legs went weak, and he nearly stumbled..
