When they were leaving, Lin Gantang wanted to go with Jiang Tongtong. Gu Hejun followed her to the parking lot silently. His expression was hard to read. Finally, he called out to her. “Gantang, I have something to tell you.”

Lin Zhaonan took out his car keys and turned to Lin Gantang and Gu Hejun. “Big Mi hasn’t been brought back from the bookstore yet. Hejun, send her there.”

“It won’t take much time if you take me there before we go home,” Lin Gantang said in confusion.

Lin Zhaonan felt that it was not easy for Wen Yanqing to catch up to someone as straightforward as Lin Gantang. He pinched Lin Gangtang’s face. “Be more careful. It’s good to make things clear. Don’t leave any regrets.”

He said the last sentence to Gu Hejun.

Gu Hejun nodded lightly at him.

A baffled Lin Gantang was stuffed into Gu Hejun’s car by her brother.

She muttered, “It’s inexplicable.”

“Is Big Mi your new cat? I went to your house two days ago and didn’t see any cats.” Gu Hejun started the engine and set off.

“It’s Yanqing’s cat.” Lin Gantang fastened her seatbelt. “I’ll take it home and take care of it for two days.”

Gu Hejun sighed indiscernibly. “Did you realize that eight out of ten sentences you said mentioned Wen Yanqing?”

“Is that so? All the questions you asked are related to him, right?” So she couldn’t be blamed.

“I remember that you didn’t like him in the past. Do you like him very much?”

“Yes, why else would I be with him?” There was a gentle light in Lin Gantang’s eyes.

“Why him?” Gu Hejun smiled.

“After I broke up with Gu Zhichuan, I let go of my prejudice and got in touch with him again. I realized that he’s quite nice. Besides, he likes me so much. It’s very comfortable to be with him.”

“Do you like him more than you like Gu Zhichuan?”

“Gu Zhichuan can’t be compared to him,” Lin Gantang replied without even needing to think.

Gu Hejun’s grip on the steering wheel tightened, and an indescribable feeling welled up in his heart.

In the past, she liked Gu Zhichuan so much that everyone knew about it and almost got married. Now, she was saying that Gu Zhichuan could not be compared with Wen Yanqing.

He envied Wen Yanqing.

When he liked Lin Gantang, Lin Gantang had liked Gu Zhichuan, so he did not disturb her. When he heard that she was getting married while he was overseas studying, he didn’t want to attend the wedding banquet to give his blessings.

Later on, he heard that she had run away from her marriage. However, he was at a critical juncture in his studies and wanted to come back after completing his MBA. However, during this period of time, she agreed to Wen Yanqing’s confession.

Gu Hejun thought that there were always some strange coincidences between him and Lin Gantang. Every time he didn’t have the time to say anything, she would already have someone by her side.

Wen Yanqing told Lin Gantang about his feelings, while he kept his in his heart, waiting for the right time and opportunity.

In the end, when Lin Gantang was single, she had considered Wen Yanqing at the first opportunity.

And she didn’t even know that he had fallen in love with her.

“That’s good.” Gu Hejun smiled and sighed. His eyes were filled with bitterness. “Wen Yanqing is quite good. He cares a lot about you.”

He sent Lin Gantang to the bookstore and turned his head to look at her exquisite profile for one last time.

“Are you serious about having a girlfriend introduced to you or are you joking?” Lin Gantang confirmed with him.

“It’s true,” Gu Hejun smiled faintly.

Lin Gantang gave him an OK sign and got out of the car with a smile. “You can go first. My car is here. I can go back by myself.”

“Alright.”

Gu Hejun watched as she walked into the bookstore and picked up Wen Yanqing’s cat, who was waiting for her at the door.

Gu Hejun felt a lot of regret.

Then he would not let her know.

Withdrawing in silence was the last form of dignity he could give to these feelings of which nothing would come out of..
