Chapter 136 - 136: Lost Something
After the meal, Lin Gantang turned on the variety show she was following and leaned on Wen Yanqing’s shoulder as she enjoyed the show.
Little Leopard Flower climbed onto her. Lin Gantang hugged it and gave it a small piece of apple.
Little Leopard Flower bit down seriously and forcefully.
Wen Yanqing was also laughing.
He was looking at Lin Gantang fondly.
Mr. Lin called and urged Lin Gantang to go back. She had forgotten the time when she was with Wen Yanqing.
The sound of a car stopped on the opposite side of the road.
Mr. Lin was standing upstairs and happened to see Wen Yanqing sending Lin Gantang back. The two of them got out of the car and kissed each other affectionately, reluctant to part.
Mr. Lin averted his gaze.
Lin Gantang entered the room in high spirits. She looked like a fool who had fallen in love. Mr. Lin’s eyes hurt.
“It’s so late. Where did you come from?” Mr. Lin asked.
“At Yanqing’s house, 1 watched TV for a while and forgot the time, so 1 came back late.” Lin Gantang didn’t hide anything.
Mr. Lin was an experienced person. As for watching TV, it may be so this time, but next time, it may not be…
He could still handle Zhaonan, and could just say whatever he wanted to as they were both men, but what about his daughter? Mr. Lin missed his late wife dearly. If she were here, she would be the most suitable person to tell Lin Gantang about this.
In the end, Mr. Lin gave a reminder, “Come back earlier in the future. Girls shouldn’t stay out all night.”
“I know.” Lin Gantang ran upstairs briskly.
The next night.
Lin Gantang returned home early, but she went out again after changing.
“You’re going to Wen Yanqing’s house again?” Her father was unhappy that his daughter was out all day long. “What are you going to do?”
“Open a blind box.”
Lin Gantang’s voice came from afar, but she was already nowhere to be seen.
Blind box? What blind box? Mr. Lin felt melancholic. The only thing that comforted him was that her partner was Wen Yanqing.
Forget it, let her be.
At most, he would urge them to get the auspicious date and bring the wedding forward.
Lin Gantang took out a women’s watch from the package. The design was simple and it had a lovely texture.
Lin Gantang looked at the label and recognized its value. Today’s clothes looked better with the pearl bracelet, so Lin Gantang put it in her bag.
When she went back, she forgot to leave it at home. When she went to the bookstore the next day, her watch and bag were brought out together.
Che Qin avoided Zhang Rongqing’s friend’s drinking session because of her foot injury. Recently, Zhang Rongqing often went to the bookstore to read books, pet the cats, and spend money like a normal customer.
When she got off work, Lin Gantang went to the staff locker to get her bag. She found that the lock was broken and the watch in her bag was missing.
Lin Gantang immediately went back to check the surveillance footage from that day.
Qian Ruoxi was leaving late and saw Lin Gantang’s expression. She came over and asked, “Boss, what’s wrong?”
“I lost something.”
Qian Ruoxi’s heart pounded as she leaned in front of the computer to take a look.
She clicked on the surveillance camera and stared at the screen until three o’clock in the afternoon when Zhang Rongqing appeared on the screen.
Zhang Rongqing broke the lock and took the item away.
Lin Gantang paused.
“Isn’t she your friend, Boss?” Qian Ruoxi asked in disbelief.
Lin Gantang copied the video onto her phone and said coldly, “Friends? Humans are not as innocent as animals, and even Ximi is a hundred times more beautiful than she is.”
Lin Gantang dialed Zhang Rongqing’s number. The person on the other end probably did something wrong and was very guilty.”.. Hello?”
“Zhang Rongqing, do you know what theft is? Do you want to check how much the watch you took from me is worth?” Lin Gantang said frostily. “How many years will it make you sit in jail for?”
Muffled sounds came from the other end of the phone, followed by Zhang Rongqing’s trembling voice. “I don’t know what you’re talking about..”
