Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“Will you be gone for a long time?” Lin Gantang suddenly felt a bit reluctant. She had never experienced this feeling before.

“Not long, about three days.”

It wasn’t as long as she had imagined. After all, when Lin Zhaonan went on a business trip, it would last for half a month. The small sense of disappointment that had risen in Lin Gantang’s heart vanished. “1’11 come to the airport to pick you up.”

As they spoke, Little Leopard Flower took advantage of Wen Yanqing’s distraction and wriggled out of his arms. It hooked onto the bedsheet and started crawling downward. It was quite audacious.

By the time Lin Gantang noticed, the kitten had already landed on the floor. It darted around her feet with its short legs, seemingly unafraid of being stepped on.

Lin Gantang bent down to catch it, but unexpectedly, Wen Yanqing also stood up, inadvertently bumping into her and causing her to tumble backward onto Wen Yanqing.

If Wen Yanqing hadn’t reached out to grab her, she might have fallen backward and hit her head on the ground.

Wen Yanqing, being knocked down as well, held her from behind. Their bodies pressed closely together, transmitting the warmth of each other’s bodies. With her soft form nestled in his arms, his eyes darkened.

“Cough…”

Lin Zhaonan’s cough sounded from the doorway. Since the door wasn’t fully closed, he got a clear view of the situation.

Lin Gantang lifted her head.

“Just passing by,” Lin Zhaonan turned and walked away.

Lin Gantang was left speechless. She and the kitten lived on the third floor, and there was nothing to see there. He lived on the second floor, so his claim of just passing by was utterly nonsensical.

However, she couldn’t protest. Lin Gantang’s face felt a bit hot. Being caught in such an embarrassing situation by her brother made her feel awkward and oddly ashamed.

Lin Gantang didn’t pay much attention to this minor accident. She got up, adjusted her dress, and went to catch the kitten.

The kitten wasn’t very swift, and as Lin Gantang bent over, her bare legs under the short skirt passed right in front of Wen Yanqing’s eyes.

Wen Yanqing’s Adam’s apple bobbed as he stood up, and he reached out, grabbing her hand.

His hand was warm and slightly feverish.

Lin Gantang, who had held the kitten, turned to look at him with a puzzled expression as if asking him what was wrong.

Wen Yanqing couldn’t control the desire in his heart and pulled her over. Just as he pulled her into his arms, Lin Gantang said anxiously. “Be careful, you might crush Little Leopard Flower!”

Lin Gantang stepped back to check on the kitten, and a tinge of disappointment seemed to appear in Wen Yanqing’s eyes.

“It’s alright. Here you go,” Lin Gantang handed the kitten back to him. “Little Leopard Flower is doing well. After your business trip, you can take it back with you.”

Wen Yanqing looked at the kitten, which was tilting its head and acting a bit disoriented. His previous frustration now seemed tinged with helplessness and amusement. “1’11 take good care of it.”

Lin Gantang led him to look at Little Leopard Flower’s food and toys, and she told him about the kitten’s eating habits. She planned to pack these things for him to take back when he returned.

After seeing off Wen Yanqing, as Lin Gantang returned to her room, she couldn’t help but think about the moment when Wen Yanqing had pulled her close. It was only then that she realized that she might have missed something.

Lin Gantang immediately sought advice from her relationship mentor.

After hearing her description, Ye Qiuqiu burst into laughter, producing a series of goose-like sounds and wiping away tears.

“Let’s not talk about Wen Yanqing for now. I’m curious, when you were with Gu Zhichuan, what was the most intimate progress?” Ye Qiuqiu wiped her tears.

“How far could we go? Gu Zhichuan was keeping himself pure for his true lover, and we didn’t even have intimate contact.” Lin Gantang explained.

“So, were you abstinent when you were with him?” Ye Qiuqiu laughed after saying that.

Seeing Lin Gantang’s persistent pursuit of Gu Zhichuan, Ye Qiuqiu understood that Lin Gantang did understand love.

It wasn’t that Lin Gantang didn’t know how, but she had been stumped by Wen Yanqing.

All along, she had been chasing after Gu Zhichuan, but she had never received even a hint of a response from him.

Lin Gantang often questioned whether she wasn’t good enough.

She understood love but had forgotten the taste of being loved.

She didn’t know how to respond when someone loved her.

Gu Zhichuan’s indifference and neglect had become the most formidable and invisible stumbling block on her path to emotional fulfillment.

After Ye Qiuqiu finished laughing, she felt a bit sorry for Lin Gantang.

“Lin Gantang, go and kiss Wen Yanqing. You must remember the moment he made your heart race.” Ye Qiuqiu sighed. “Both of you are obsessed with someone, but Wen Yanqing is much better than you.”

“What, what?” Lin Gantang was even more puzzled.

“You’ve lost something important. If you’re unsure, let Wen Yanqing set the pace for your relationship.” Ye Qiuqiu said.

Lin Gantang felt that her relationship counselor was acting strangely tonight. She hung up the phone and ruffled her hair..
