After My Rebirth, I Escaped My Marriage

Chapter 814: Chapter 814 Are even these small benefits gone?

Wen Yanqing had become addicted to kissing her, and seeing that she did not resist, he slowly slid his hand up her skirt, only to have his hand firmly grasped.

Lin Gantang took advantage of his unpreparedness and kicked him away with one foot.

“You’re sleeping by yourself tonight!” Lin Gantang grabbed the quilt, threw it over him, and hopped off the bed to leave.

The only one left in the room, Wen Yanqing, covered his face and helplessly laughed.

Lin Gantang ran to the guest room, clicked the door shut, and locked it.

Until late into the night.

Wen Yanqing used the spare key to open the door and, with the faint light from the window, saw the person fast asleep on the bed, and quietly sat down beside her to sleep next to her.

The next day when Lin Gantang woke up, she stared blankly at the home decor in front of her, and only then remembered that this wasn’t the master bedroom.

After getting up and washing up, she opened the tightly closed room door and walked out.

All of a sudden, she realized something was wrong—hadn’t she locked the door before going to sleep last night? Why did the door open as soon as she turned the handle just now?

Could she have remembered wrong?

Lin Gantang contemplated while resting her chin on her hand in front of the door lock.

“Tangtang, come have breakfast.” Wen Yanqing saw her and called out.

Hearing his voice, Lin Gantang immediately remembered what happened yesterday.

But after a night, the temper from last evening had dissipated, and looking at his gentle smile, she simply couldn’t get angry again.

Wen Yanqing, wearing a light grey apron, had already set the breakfast table.

Lin Gantang sat down, took a bite of the bun, and tasted that it was the crab roe bun he had made by hand—her favorite.

Lin Gantang’s eyes curved.

Seizing the moment of her happiness, Wen Yanqing stole a kiss, and Lin Gantang gave him a mock glare.

Wen Yanqing laughed joyously, knowing she wasn’t angry anymore.

It was his fault. He was so immersed in Lin Gantang’s meticulous care that he couldn’t bring himself to leave after recovering and didn’t tell her the truth.

In the danger of the previous day, his heart had almost stopped from fear, not to mention faking blindness.

“Tongtong asked me out, and I wanted to accompany you. Since you can see now, I don’t have to cling to you every step, so I’ll go shopping with Tongtong today,” Lin Gantang said.

Wen Yanqing sat down: “Okay.”

“You eat lunch by yourself, Tongtong and I will dine out.”

“…Oh.”

After breakfast, Lin Gantang put the dishes into the dishwasher and went back to her room to see Wen Yanqing changing clothes.

Lin Gantang noticed that the shirt he was holding clearly had been worn by her as home clothes before; among the many clothes, he just had to wear that one.

Wen Yanqing slowly buttoned up his shirt, looked at her when done, picked up his tie, and looked at her again.

“Why are you looking at me?” Lin Gantang knew he wanted her to tie his tie as usual, but without him asking, she pretended not to know and walked over to the wardrobe to pick a skirt for going out.

Wen Yanqing finished tying his tie in silence and put on his wristwatch.

“Are you sure you don’t want to come with me? I could have the driver pick you up at the plaza to meet Tongtong at noon.” He asked again, not giving up.

“I wouldn’t be of any help at the company, and I’d distract you. It’s better if I stay at home,” Lin Gantang didn’t change her mind.

“…Oh.”

Lin Gantang took out a short skirt to compare in front of herself, was just about to take off her nightgown to try it on, when she remembered that the person beside her could see and couldn’t change as casually as before.

Lin Gantang hung the skirt back, deciding not to change for now.

Watching her, Wen Yanqing thought: Is he even deprived of this little perk now?

About to leave, Wen Yanqing looked back three times at each step, his eyes secretly filled with hope. Though it should have been an energetic morning, somehow he seemed a bit wilted.

Lin Gantang couldn’t help but giggle, went over to wrap her arms around his neck, and deeply kissed his lips, their breath mingling together when they parted.

“I love you, leave early and come back early, I’ll wait for you at home.”

Wen Yanqing’s mouth curled up, unable to contain his smile.
