After My Rebirth, I Escaped My Marriage

Chapter 1001: Chapter 1001 Oops

Before Lin Gantang realized it, deep winter had descended, and the temperature kept dropping lower and lower.

Lin Gantang grew more and more reluctant to go out, first because it was cold, and second because her pregnant belly was getting bigger. Staying at home to watch dramas and play with the cat, and occasionally meeting up with friends, her days were not boring at all.

She had rescued quite a few stray cats almost frozen at the bookstore, all taken care of by Qian Ruoxi and the staff.

One day, Lin Gantang was looking at messages in the WeChat group where everyone was urging Wang Yingying to confess her feelings to Hang Tianjin. Wang Yingying was hesitant, eventually asking for advice on how to confess successfully.

Hong Shuangying was the most enthusiastic, [Invite him out for a meal and just say it directly, don’t give him a chance to pretend he doesn’t understand.]

Wang Yingying: [I’m a bit shy, maybe I should text him to probe first?]

Lin Gantang: [Why not hear what the guys think? Isn’t Le Yu in the group?]

Le Yu, mentioned in the conversation, soon replied, [It’s simple, I’m an expert at confessions, I’ll help you with it.]

A string of emojis followed in the group: […]

Le Yu: [What’s with that face, at least I’m someone who’s in a relationship. By the way, I want to buy a Christmas present for my girlfriend. What do you girls like?]

[Don’t give a heart pendant! Damn, I’ve already received four heart pendants! Enough with the hearts!] it was evident from the text that Hong Shuangying was irritated.

Gan Minglu: [The ‘Mother and Child’ eyeshadow palette, you deserve to have it.]

[?] Le Yu: [Seriously though, I’m at the mall right now, not sure what to pick, I want to surprise her.]

As Lin Gantang enthusiastically tapped on her phone, Wen Yanqing came over, “Are you ready? Let’s head out.”

“Eh, okay.” Lin Gantang put her phone into her coat pocket and got up to put on her shoes.

After she dressed and opened the door, she heard Wen Yanqing say, “Wait,” and then a gray scarf was wrapped around her neck.

The hospital was busy with people coming and going. Wen Yanqing stood outside the consultation room, his gentle demeanor and handsome appearance made people passing by the corridor couldn’t help but turn their heads for another look.

However, his attention was only on the person inside. He patiently waited quietly, and as soon as Lin Gantang came out, he immediately approached her with a smile brimming in his eyes, revealing his dimples.

The check-up went very smoothly. Wen Yanqing, clutching the report, zipped up her coat gently and suggested softly, “Shall we take a walk outside before going home?”

The scarf covered half of Lin Gantang’s face, and her eyes curved in a smile: “Sure.”

The roadside trees had shed all their leaves, and the branches swayed left and right as the wind blew.

As Christmas approached, roadside shops were all dressed up.

Lin Gantang stared intently at the colorful candies in the store, while Wen Yanqing pretended not to notice and led her away.

With a sigh from beside him, Wen Yanqing pretended not to hear, then the person by his side sighed even more heavily.

Wen Yanqing said with amusement and resignation, “No candy.”

Lin Gantang looked at him with pitiful eyes, clinging to his arm.

Wen Yanqing: “…”

“Just one, no more than that.” Wen Yanqing took out a piece of milk candy from his pocket.

Lin Gantang’s eyes lit up with joy, and after eating the candy, she chatted happily, “This year, I want to set up a Christmas tree at home, hang little dolls and snowflakes on it, and more…”

As they spoke, the two arrived at the mall. Lin Gantang, arm in arm with Wen Yanqing, stepped onto the escalator and halfway through, saw a man in the elevator next to them rushing down in a hurry, chasing someone.

Lin Gantang exclaimed in surprise: “Le…”

Before she could finish calling out, the man had already run far away.

Lin Gantang turned her head and tugged at the sleeve of the person beside her: “Isn’t that Le Yu?”

Wen Yanqing took a closer look: “It is him. What’s wrong with him?”

Lin Gantang looked in the direction where Le Yu was chasing and seemed to see Che Qin walking away briskly, also saw her forcefully pushing away Le Yu.

Lin Gantang opened her mouth, and finally exclaimed, “Uh-oh.”
