Chapter 786: 786: Have You Gone Crazy?
The scent and warmth of her body, embraced by Wen Yanqing, brought out a satisfied smile as the thought of her being his filled him with contentment.
Lin Gantang, leaning on his shoulder, was being affectionate and sought a kiss when the ring of a text message notification sounded indiscreetly.
Lin Gantang turned her head toward the lit screen, wanting to turn over to get it, but Wen Yanqing wouldn’t let go.
She playfully slapped his chest, “Let me see who it is, what if it’s my dad looking for me?”
Reluctantly, Wen Yanqing let go, waited for her to turn onto her side, and then hugged her from behind, his chin resting on top of her head.
“Who is it?” he asked.
Lin Gantang picked up the phone and looked, “Le Yu.”
Without saying another word, Wen Yanqing reached for her phone in the light and carelessly threw it onto the bed, continuing to hold his wife.
Lin Gantang was amused by his childish action, rose to cradle his face, and kissed him, trying to hold back a laugh, “Let me see why he is looking for me.”
Wen Yanqing looked intently as the phone screen lit up again in Lin Gantang’s hands.
Lin Gantang scrolled past a barrage of erratic emojis from Le Yu, switching from crying and sobbing to lying down and pounding the floor, and began to read his message.
[Someone actually added me tonight, calling me Miss Lin.]
[I was thinking who got it wrong and was about to speak up, but soon enough, he got comfortable and called me Gantang!]
[When did I change my name? Le Yu posted an emoji of someone pulling their hair out in frustration: [There’s only one truth, Lin Gantang, did you give out your number to someone using mine as a shield?]]
Le Yu suddenly recalled the socially deadly moment when he thought Mr. Lin’s WeChat was Gantang’s: [Why did you give out my number? You should’ve given out your dad’s!]
Let him experience the embarrassment I felt back then!
Lin Gantang sent a red envelope his way, [You’ve been a great help, brother. He said he wanted to exchange racing experience, and after thinking it through, I figured you’re the best man for the job. To not hinder his learning, I had no choice but to give him your number.]
Le Yu, upon opening the red envelope and seeing the amount, went silent instantly.
He stopped fussing and earnestly expressed, [When a friend’s in trouble, I should do my part, of course, of course.]
His attitude changed too quickly before and after, so Lin Gantang speculated, [You’re out of money?]
[Dating expenses are high, dad stopped giving pocket money, and my salary isn’t enough. I’m strapped.]
[Oh, you’re in a relationship now? A girlfriend from H City?]
[Mind your own business.] said Le Yu. [Who’s the person who added me, though? I chatted with him a bit and something feels off.]
[It’s President Shang from ES Company, I’m giving you this business connection, no thanks needed.] Lin Gantang was curious: [What’s off?]
Le Yu hesitated, then said: [Gantang, even though Mr. Wen can’t see this, he truly treats you incredibly well.]
Lin Gantang: [Do I need you to tell me that?]
Le Yu gathered his thoughts, [There are many temptations out there, but look at your husband, handsome, wealthy, and devoted.]
[?] Lin Gantang was growing more confused, [What exactly are you trying to say?]
Le Yu, biting the bullet, directly asked, [Are you thinking of having an affair?]
Lin Gantang almost choked on her own saliva.
She turned her head to look at Wen Yanqing, who was lying on the bed with half-closed eyes, and barely managed to suppress her coughing to catch her breath and asked, [Have you lost your mind to actually think I would cheat?]
From her response, it seemed she had no such intention, and Le Yu breathed a sigh of relief: [The guy with the surname Shang added me thinking I was you, he spoke in a very familiar tone, and after chatting for a while, I felt like he might have certain intentions toward you, I thought you two had something going on.]
[Pshaw!]
