After My Rebirth, I Escaped My Marriage-Chapter 788 - Acting Coy Like a Cat

Chapter 788: Chapter 788 Acting Coy Like a Cat

Because Lin Gantang had mentally prepared herself for having children before the marriage registration, what troubled her at this moment was not the act of giving birth, but the health of the fetus.

Some things are better left unthought, the more you think, the more chaotic your heart becomes.

She placed her hand on Wen Yanqing’s arm and saw that he was sleeping soundly. She couldn’t bear to wake him, realizing that speaking now wouldn’t change the outcome, and it seemed unnecessary to go out and buy a pregnancy test in the middle of the night.

After all, whether it’s good or bad, it’s already like this; one more night would be the same.

Lin Gantang convinced herself, tossing and turning in bed for a while before she finally fell asleep when completely exhausted.

Thinking too much led to a late sleep. The next day, when Wen Yanqing opened his eyes, Lin Gantang was still curled up in his arms, not yet awake.

The curtains were tightly drawn, blocking out all light. Wen Yanqing carefully got up without disturbing Lin Gantang’s sleep and quietly stepped off the bed towards the balcony.

The new day’s sunshine was brilliant. Wen Yanqing looked at the dazzling sunlight and squinted his eyes.

He saw the distant mountains and rivers, saw the shadows of the trees below and the stretches of flower beds.

The corners of his mouth couldn’t help but curve up.

He was sure that his vision was recovering, from light, to color, to once again seeing the shapes of objects.

Although it was blurry, he could already distinguish things.

The person walking downstairs must be Uncle Peng, and that patch of blue-purple was the Eryngium that Lin Gantang had arranged for someone to plant for him.

He could see things more clearly than he did yesterday.

Wen Yanqing suppressed the excitement in his heart.

He would definitely be able to see even more clearly, wouldn’t he? Wen Yanqing looked forward to it.

He stood quietly, looking at the distant scenery, cherishing every bit of brilliance before him because he had lost it once before.

Not until the sound of footsteps from behind approached, Lin Gantang embraced him from the back, leaning softly against him, with her just-awakened voice soft and muffled, “You’re up so early, sunbathing again?”

“Yeah, the sunlight is nice.” Wen Yanqing held her hand, drawing her gently into his embrace, “Still sleepy? Go back to sleep for a while.”

“No need to sleep anymore, I want to go out and buy something.” Lin Gantang still remembered what had been on her mind before sleeping.

This early in the morning, Wen Yanqing couldn’t help asking, “What are you buying? Want Rongrong to go for you?”

Lin Gantang couldn’t be sure whether she was pregnant or not and didn’t want everyone to know just yet; if she was to tell, it would be after being certain.

So, she said, “I want to go myself.”

After saying this, she buried her face in Wen Yanqing’s chest and rubbed against him, coquettishly like a kitten.

Affection filled Wen Yanqing’s eyes as he gently kissed her.

After washing up, Lin Gantang set off without eating breakfast.

She planned to buy a pregnancy test first and, if positive, then go to the hospital.

No pharmacy was nearby Mount Qinghe, so Lin Gantang drove to a farther place.

She smoothly got what she came for, and upon exiting the pharmacy, she came face-to-face with a young woman wearing a simple-colored long dress.

Lin Gantang didn’t take notice of her, but the woman kept her eyes fixed on Lin Gantang as they brushed past each other.

Lin Gantang’s car was parked right outside the store. Before getting into the car, she glanced inadvertently at the pharmacy and noticed that the woman was still watching her.

Their eyes met; the woman in the long dress gave Lin Gantang a friendly smile.

“Do you know me?” Lin Gantang had no recollection of this person.

“You’re Miss Lin, right? I’ve seen your photos,” she said.

“Who are you?”

Seeing the puzzled look in Lin Gantang’s eyes, the woman took the initiative to explain, “I am Hejun’s girlfriend, Meng Shuwan.”

Lin Gantang showed a surprised expression and then a smile, “Nice to meet you, I didn’t expect to encounter you here.”

Her dad had told her early on that Gu Hejun had met a girl through a family-arranged date, a university teacher.
