After My Rebirth, I Escaped My Marriage

Chapter 13

She’s Mine

Wen Yanqing bade farewell to Mr. Lin and glanced at Lin Gantang before leaving the ward with Lin Zhaonan.

When they reached the corridor, Lin Zhaonan stopped in his tracks and looked straight at him with his hands in his pockets. “Mr. Wen still likes Gantang.”

Wen Yanqing adjusted his black cufflinks without saying a word.

Lin Zhaonan already had an answer for what had happened earlier. He said, “I advise you to give up. Her personality…is not suited for you. With your current wealth, you can find someone better.”

“She’s great.” Wen Yanqing looked up and said stubbornly, “She will be mine.”

Lin Zhaonan did not comment.

In the ward.

After peeling the apple, Lin Gantang glanced at the water in the IV drip and started eating.

Lin Mingzhuo probably thought she was an eyesore. “When are you leaving? Why are you still here?”

“Where else would I go? You won’t let me go home. Can you buy some mangosteens the next time?” Lin Gantang asked Jiang Tongtong. “It’s the right season to eat mangosteens now. I’ll buy you strawberries when they’re ripe.”

Jiang Tongtong was speechless.

“Ignore her. Get out now,” Lin Mingzhuo said angrily.

Lin Gantang stood up happily and left without forgetting to grab her phone.

She didn’t even beg him to keep her.

Lin Mingzhuo pointed at the door, his fingers trembling. “Look at her, look at her! How could I have such a daughter! Simply walking away!”

Or else?

Jiang Tongtong felt weak and helpless. Didn’t you ask her to leave?

“Dad, don’t be angry. The doctor said that it’s not good to have emotional fluctuations after surgery.” She braced herself and tried to persuade him.

“Say this to that unfilial daughter; would I be angry if she didn’t anger me?”

“Ah, yes, the air-conditioner is on. Dad, do you feel cold after your surgery?” Jiang Tongtong had no choice but to abruptly change the topic.

Jiang Tongtong was about to secretly heave a sigh of relief that she finally managed to calm the patient down when the door opened. It turned out that Lin Gantang had gone to get her luggage and was now back, pushing it in.

Mr. Lin turned his back to her, refusing to look at her.

Lin Zhaonan said that he would hire a nurse, but Lin Gantang didn’t promise him that she wouldn’t be staying there.

Her luggage was already prepared. Who else could so conveniently stay over besides her?

Lin Gantang asked Jiang Tongtong to go back and rest. Seeing that the drip was almost finished, she pressed the bell for the nurse to change it.

Lin Mingzhuo didn’t say anything this time.

The next day, Lin Zhaonan came over and saw that Lin Gantang was preparing to brush her teeth with a plain face. He didn’t speak to her and had mixed feelings.

He talked to Mr. Lin about the company’s matters. “The company is preparing to bid for this project, but it’s hard to say if we will succeed. The Gu family is also interested.”

Mr. Lin nodded and spoke to him about the bidding. He compared the strengths and weaknesses of several competitors.

When food was delivered, Lin Zhaonan went back to the company. The male nurse helped Mr. Lin to the toilet. Lin Gantang had already finished brushing her teeth and took the breakfast out, arranging it neatly on the table.

Lin Gantang accompanied him for three days. Sometimes, when Mr. Lin saw her serving tea and water and seriously taking care of him, he thought that Lin Gantang was going to change and become as obedient as when she was young. In the end, after a few words, he realized that this person was still as stubborn as ever.

She didn’t listen, and could still make him choked up with anger.

Everyone knew that the head of the Lin family was hospitalized, and those who had dealings with them on a daily basis came to visit one after another.

As a result, many people saw that Lin Gantang had been accompanying her father in the hospital. The pair did not seem to have severed their relationship as rumored.

Everyone began to ponder.

In the Gu family.

Gu Guoliang frowned and put down the newspaper, deep wrinkles between his brows. “What’s wrong with you and Lin Gantang?”

“There are some conflicts; you know Gantang’s personality. It’ll be fine after awhile,” Gu Zhichuan said.

“Do you still want this marriage?” Gu Guoliang asked. “Your mother knows a lot of young ladies from rich families. She didn’t agree to you marrying the daughter of the Lin family back then.”
