The next afternoon, Lin Gantang went straight to the hospital.
She passed by the main building and was about to make a detour to the inpatient department when she realized that a couple’s figures were particularly familiar. When they turned into the main building, Lin Gantang saw their faces clearly. It turned out to be Lin Jingqi and Gan Wenyu.
Gan Wenyu’s expression wasn’t very good. Her face was tense. Lin Jingqi held her hand and coaxed her in a low voice, as if they were having a conflict.
Are they dating? Lin Gantang recalled that Lin Jingqi and Gan Wenyu had also been together on the day of Tang Shuming’s birthday party.
Lin Gantang had no intention of bothering about the two of them and went to visit Wen Rendong directly.
When she arrived at the ward, Lin Gantang realized that her dad was also there. He was talking non-stop to Wen Rendong, and Wen Rendong was listening to him seriously.
It was strange.
Wen Rendong was the first to see Lin Gantang. He smiled kindly and waved at her. “Gantang, you’re here. Come in.”
“Uncle Wen.” Lin Gantang went in to greet him. She put down the fruits and turned to look at Mr. Lin. “Dad, you’re here too.”
“I came to talk to your Uncle Wen,” Mr. Lin said.
“The child is so thoughtful. She has to work and is busy, yet she still comes to see me.” Wen Rendong chuckled.
“Her? When I was hospitalized, she stayed with me and said she was worried about me.” Mr. Lin boasted, “I didn’t expect her to be so filial. I told her that there’s nurses and she doesn’t need to trouble herself, but she just wouldn’t listen.”
Lin Gantang didn’t know what to do when she heard that. Heavens, what was going on? Her dad actually praised her.
She was not used to it!
Lin Gantang felt her face heat up as she stood there.
“It’s all because you taught her well. She’s a daughter after all; they’re all considerate,” Wen Rendong responded.
“Yes, it’s good to have a daughter. Many people want to have a daughter now.” Mr. Lin smiled. “Heartwarming and sensible. It makes one love them dearly.” “Gantang must have been very cute when she was young?”
“Yeah, soft like a little angel. Look at her now, she hasn’t changed at all from when she was young, haha.”
Lin Gantang was so embarrassed that she dug her toes into the ground.
I want to leave this place and let you two old fathers continue chatting.
“Gantang, don’t just stand there. Help peel an apple for your Uncle Wen,” Mr. Lin reminded.
Wen Rendong waved his hand. “There’s no need. Gantang, just have a seat. You don’t have to busy yourself.”
Lin Gantang was so embarrassed that she didn’t know what to do with her hands and feet. When she heard her dad’s words, she immediately peeled an apple just to have something to do.
Mr. Lin nodded in satisfaction. “Look, daughters are all obedient so I don’t have to worry. Gantang has been obedient since she was young. She’s not bad after growing up.”
Lin Gantang almost cut off her fingers.
She stole a glance at Mr. Lin. Was this person really her dad?
As expected of someone who had lived decades longer than her. She could not compare to his ability to lie through his teeth! He had clearly despised her a few days ago.
After sitting for a while and chatting to their heart’s content, Mr. Lin left the ward with Lin Gantang.
The two of them walked slowly. Mr. Lin said, “Tomorrow is Saturday. Are you coming home for dinner?”
“I plan to go camping with Yanqing on Saturday. Dad, you miss me?” Lin Gantang finally felt less awkward after leaving the ward. “You always remember to ask me home every Saturday and Sunday.”
“Who misses you? You come home every now and then. What’s there to miss?” Mr. Lin snorted.
“Oh, really? I’ll reflect on myself,” Lin Gantang said. “I’ll go home less often so that you won’t be troubled.”
“If you don’t come back, how can you pester Yanqing to go here and there all day?” Mr. Lin was a tough-talker. “Yanqing is not like you. He’s career-minded and cares about the family. He didn’t even need me to call him over to visit me.”
See, the one who complained about her was her biological father. Lin Gantang was relieved..
