Chapter 776: Chapter 776 Can’t Take It Anymore?
Zhang Ruxin had indeed contacted Lin Gantang.
Right when Gu Shuyue suddenly went abroad, Zhang Ruxin discreetly found out that Gu Shuyue’s departure was not only because her playing with other’s emotions affected the Gu family and even the Gu Corporation’s reputation, but also stemmed from her feud with Lin Gantang.
Zhang Ruxin was close to Gu Shuyue, and she had had her conflicts and frictions with Lin Gantang as well. After Gu Shuyue was forcibly sent overseas by her family, Zhang Ruxin feared that Lin Gantang would turn around and settle accounts with her, so she tried to curry favor with Lin Gantang multiple times during that period.
It was just that Lin Gantang did not pay her any attention.
As time passed, with no move from Lin Gantang, Zhang Ruxin gradually let down her guard, believing that she wasn’t going to hold a grudge, and began to make connections with Song Jinwen.
The collaboration between the Zhang and Song families was still under discussion, and Zhang Ruxin was, of course, afraid that their relationship would be ruined, affecting other matters.
“She’s spouting nonsense. At first, she even said she couldn’t remember me, so how could she possibly be my good sister?” Zhang Ruxin hastily explained to Song Jinwen, “Don’t listen to her, she wants to create a rift between us and pick up a bargain for herself.”
Lin Gantang watched her desperately defending herself with a sneer and a raised eyebrow, without uttering a word.
Could Song Jinwen not think of what Zhang Ruxin could? But Song Jinwen was now annoyed with Zhang Ruxin’s big mouth and shook off Zhang Ruxin’s hand that was reaching out to grab hers.
“Lin Gantang, may I have a word with you?” Song Jinwen said with a stiff tone.
Lin Gantang shrugged indifferently.
Song Jinwen walked ahead of Zhang Ruxin to the outside of the resting area and stood still, her anger rising as she watched Lin Gantang strolling leisurely behind.
“Lin Gantang, must you meddle so much?” Song Jinwen began to question as soon as she approached.
“Wait, what did you call me?” Lin Gantang dug in her ear.
Song Jinwen’s face tightened, “Lin Gantang!”
“So, you do know my surname is Lin?” Lin Gantang countered, “So, me taking care of my own family’s business is considered meddling too much?”
“Does your brother’s business need you to meddle? Go take care of your Wen Yanqing.” Song Jinwen’s face grew stern, “Jiang Tongtong and Lin Zhaonan are not speaking up. Are you bored to death to be sticking your nose into it?”
“As a member of the Lin family, it’s naturally my duty to uphold harmony within the household,” Lin Gantang scoffed. “You have already plotted on how to break up my brother’s marriage; should I not stand up for my sister-in-law? Should I just sit by and do nothing, cheering for you instead?”
Song Jinwen’s face turned ashen, “That’s Zhang Ruxin’s idea, not mine.”
“Not now, but what about in the future?” Lin Gantang’s piercing eyes fixed on her, “I’ve seen too much emotional filth in this circle. Everyone is cunning. You can’t fool me, and you can’t fool yourself either.”
Song Jinwen was interested in Lin Zhaonan. She used to watch from a distance without disturbing him, but now, upon seeing Jiang Tongtong, she would feel jealous and demean her. So, what about later?
Who knows if her next step would be to interfere in someone else’s marriage?
“Whom I like is my own business. If you interfere because of this, then you are the one meddling,” Song Jinwen stated firmly.
“Right, humans have emotions. There’s nothing wrong with liking someone,” Lin Gantang said. “A big difference between animals and humans is whether they are bound by morals. I trust you wouldn’t want to be an animal, would you?”
“Lin Gantang!” Song Jinwen clenched her teeth forcefully.
“Does it sound unpleasant? Can’t stand it?” Lin Gantang laughed sarcastically, “Dare to take one more step forward, and there are nastier words waiting for you. Song Jinwen, I hope you remember what you said before. If you like someone, like them quietly without disturbing them.”
