Chapter 766: 766: Getting Married

Lin Gantang returned to the villa and planted the love roses her father had given her in the prime spot amid the flowers in front of the building, admiring them contentedly for a while.

She looked at her dirty hands and intentionally reached out to grab Wen Yanqing’s, smearing his clean palms with dirt, and chuckled to herself for a bit.

Wen Yanqing looked at her with puzzled eyes, not understanding why she was laughing.

“No reason, just… I’m happy that my dad gave me roses,” Lin Gantang touched his face, saying earnestly, “There’s a bug; let’s go back to the room.”

Wen Yanqing had three streaks of mud on his face as he nodded and agreed.

Lin Gantang laughed out loud.

Wen Yanqing: “?”

She coughed slightly, struggling to hold back her laughter as she led him back to the room.

The sky had already turned pitch black, and Lin Gantang switched on the lights in the room.

In the dimly lit environment, the sudden brightness made Wen Yanqing frown and close his eyes, then he opened them and blinked.

“I’ll go wash up with you first.”

After washing her hands, she went to get the pajamas.

After both had bathed, Wen Yanqing was listening to an audiobook. Lin Gantang sighed at how her husband was so dedicated to learning that she, with no grand ambitions, lay flat and picked up her phone to scroll through Moments.

Just as she opened the app, her chat messages surged in. Lin Gantang glanced into the group chat and saw Tan Huiya’s name.

She clicked on the group and scrolled up, only to learn that Tan Huiya had actually gotten married.

Hong Shuangying had the scoop: [She married Fang Yanyue, just today. Although he’s her third husband, the wedding was anything but small.]

Wang Yingying: [I didn’t expect her to be willing to marry a fifty-year-old man.]

[The funniest part is her brother Yin He, who only found out today that his sister got married.]

[I was at the wedding today; her brother didn’t attend at all. I heard they had a falling out before and she left for a while.]

Lin Gantang thought about what Che Qin had told her, about how Tan Huiya almost got tricked by an uncle into marrying a mentally challenged man in City Z.

Could it be the uncle was still after her, so she decided to get married to get it over with?

Where Che Qin had desperately escaped from, Tan Huiya had willingly entered.

[What do you think she married for? His age, or because he has kids and a beer belly?]

[Pfft…]n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

[Let’s be optimistic, maybe it’s true love.]

[She’s after the Fang family’s wealth, and Fang Yanyue is after her youth and beauty. They’re a perfect match.]

Lin Gantang closed the app.

It was easy to guess that Tan Huiya’s marriage was a strategic one for benefits. She was so picky before, even trying to steal Yanqing away, so how could she actually fall for Fang Yanyue, old enough to be her father?

Che Qin said Tan Huiya left City Z without a trace; Lin Gantang hadn’t expected that she would come back quietly and get married.

Lin Gantang messaged Yin Zhen: [With Tan Huiya marrying into the Fang family, will this affect your takeover of the Yin family?]

After a while, Yin Zhen sent a voice reply: “Don’t worry, Yin He and Tan Huiya have cut ties, she won’t use the Fang family’s power to trouble me on behalf of Yin He.]

[She might have another purpose for marrying Fang Yanyue.]

“Don’t worry about her. She thinks life in the Fang family will be a breeze. You’ll see, it won’t be long before Fang Yanyue’s children gnaw her to the bone.”

Lin Gantang responded: [If she can please Fang Yanyue, it could turn out differently.]

“Fang Yanyue isn’t stupid; he won’t let her control him so easily. Only a brainless woman would willingly wade into the messy waters of the Fang family.”

“Tangtang.”

Wen Yanqing called her, and Lin Gantang put down her phone to sit beside him: “What’s up?”

“I’m hungry.”

“Already?” Lin Gantang got out of bed: “Aunt Zhong is probably asleep, I’ll go make you some noodles.”

“Sounds good.” Wen Yanqing smiled sweetly at her.

Lin Gantang couldn’t help but lean in to kiss his dimple, then cheerfully left.

Wen Yanqing picked up her phone.
