Outside the shop, Gu Zhichuan gripped the object in his pocket. Just as he was about to enter the bookstore, he saw Wen Yanqing behind a bookshelf.

A short silence, followed by a quick retreat to his car, ensued. Gu Zhichuan lit a cigarette in frustration.

The nicotine numbed his nerves, giving him a moment of respite.

He spied on the figures in the shop from afar, watching as Wen Yanqing worked hard without complaint. He also noted how Lin Gantang would say a few words to him every time she walked past.

Gu Zhichuan wanted to laugh at Shengfang’s CEO for doing all this, but that was jealousy rearing its ugly head. After all, he, too, was waiting for an opportunity.

He took a deep drag of his cigarette, exhaling a cloud of white smoke blocking his vision.

He waited a long time, only making a move when Wen Yanqing left.

Stepping into the shop, he passed by the cashier’s counter and was immediately greeted by a familiar female voice conversing with someone on the phone. The voice belonged to none other than Lin Gantang.

“Hello, are you looking for something?” Gu Zhichuan stopped in his tracks, turning to respond.

“Ah. I was looking for the store’s phone number.”

“Could you help me input it into my phone?” Gu Zhichuan asked.

He passed his phone to the store attendant, allowing them to add the store’s number to his phone book before thanking them.

Qian Ruoxi happened to notice the commotion. She came over and knocked on the countertop. “Are you playing with your phone during working hours?”

“I was just checking out the boss’s video.” Xiao Cheng put away her phone. “Manager, is the man in the video the boss’s boyfriend?” Xiao Cheng asked quietly.

“Work hard, don’t slack off.” Qian Ruoxi patted her.

Xiao Cheng giggled. Nothing else needed to be said. The livestream had just gotten more interesting.

Meanwhile, Lin Gantang was leisurely flipping through a book on the second floor. The cats were hard at work, doing what they did best. Now and then, she would look out the window, eyeing the busy city street.

Gu Zhichuan walked up to her. Lin Gandang briefly acknowledged his presence but returned to reading her book without saying anything.

“Here you go.” Gu Zhichuan placed the jewelry in front of Lin Gandang.

Lin Gandang glanced at it.

Lin Gandang glanced at it. It was a platinum necklace with a diamond-studded Cupid inlace. It was the necklace she had lost.

“You left it at my house. I’m returning it to you.”

He had seen this necklace countless times. Holding it in his hand, he recalled their time together. Lin Gantang bought this necklace herself. She liked the cherubic Cupid.

The last two times they met, he had parted on bad terms with Lin Gantang. Gu Zhichuan reflected on himself and felt that his way of speaking made her unhappy.

“I’m here to look for books today. You don’t have to be on guard.” Gu Zhichuan smiled. “Take the necklace; it’s yours. I shan’t disturb you.”

After saying that, he went to the bookshelf to pick a book and did not pester her. Lin Gantang was slightly surprised, but thinking about it, it was for the best. Who would want to quarrel with another every time they met if they could coexist peacefully? She shook the necklace, causing the Cupid to spin around. She vaguely remembered saying she liked it because Gu Zhichuan said it looked pretty…

Lin Gantang placed it back on the table and continued reading.

Not long after, Wen Yanqing returned with the milk tea Lin Gantang had requested. He did not forget the straw.

Lin Gaantang wanted some milk tea, so Wen Yanqing went to buy some for her because getting it delivered would have been too slow for her taste.

Lin Gandang took a sip. It was sweet and pleasant to her taste. She raised the milk tea to her lips and smiled.

Wen Yanqing mirrored her smile and sipped his own. “If you like it so much, I’ll make it for you; it isn’t hard to make. We just need a few things, and you’ll always get to drink milk tea.”

“You’re amazing.” Lin Gantang felt that her boyfriend was omnipotent.

“What’s that necklace doing here?” Wen Yanqing recognized it; it was one Lin Gantang had worn before.

“I left it with Gu Zhichuan. He dropped by to return it.” Lin Gantang felt that there was no need to hide the truth.

“I see.” Wen Yanqing nodded along, placing the necklace into his pocket. “I’ll keep it for you..”
