After My Rebirth, I Escaped My Marriage-Chapter 896 - : It’s over, I’ve walked right into it.

Chapter 896: Chapter 896: It’s over, I’ve walked right into it.

Bei Bei withdrew her gaze, “I’ve been around Hejiang Road these past couple of days, but I didn’t run into you every time. Today, after I finished my work, I dropped by and didn’t expect to find you here.”

“The bookstore hasn’t been busy lately, so I’ve been resting at home quite a bit.” Lin Gantang closed her book, recalling that she had mentioned wanting to open a store, and asked, “Are you looking for a shop space on Hejiang Road?”

“I found one, it’s just a few doors down from your bookstore.”

Bei Bei was attracted by the foot traffic in the area, but almost all the shops were already rented out. The one she ended up renting became available because the last tenant decided to give up and transfer the lease. Bei Bei got the news and secured the place right away.

It was not far from the bookstore, and a big fire had once wiped everything out there. The owner suffered heavy losses and couldn’t afford it financially, so after much thought, he decided to give up.

“I’ve already got people starting the renovation, it will be easy to invite you over in the future,” Bei Bei said with a smile, in a very good mood.

“Have you already arranged for the clothes to be made?” asked Lin Gantang.

“Hmm, when they’re done, I’ll give you a few sets.” Bei Bei was confident in her cousin’s work, “Although it may not be as fancy as the brands you’re wearing right now, trust me, the design will definitely add to your style.”

Lin Gantang smiled, “I’m looking forward to it.”

“Do you want to take a look at my shop?” Bei Bei invited her.

“Sure.”

Lin Gantang asked Jiang Tongtong if she wanted to come along. Jiang Tongtong had planned to stay behind to continue looking for books, but thinking Lin Gantang was pregnant, she felt it was better to accompany her in case she needed any help.

Bei Bei’s shop already had the main framework of the renovation completed, and one could vaguely guess what the final look would be.

The store was filled with construction materials, and the workers were rushing to get the work done.

“This is the renovation design my uncle sent over; it matches my cousin’s design concept quite well.” Bei Bei brought out the drawings, “Do you think the customers here will like it?”

Jiang Tongtong’s nostrils flared, and she pulled Lin Gantang, “Let’s step outside to talk? There’s a new material smell in the shop.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Gantang suddenly remembered something she had almost neglected.

Renovation materials often contain some formaldehyde, and even if they are environmentally friendly, most will still release a small amount.

“Bei Bei, after the renovation, remember to hire a formaldehyde removal company to do a check. It’s better for you and your employees’ health,” Lin Gantang said as she walked outside.

Bei Bei followed her, slapping her forehead, “Oh right, I almost forgot.”

She took out her phone and added a note to her reminders.

Bei Bei didn’t dwell on why Lin Gantang needed to avoid the faint smell, as she wasn’t aware Lin Gantang was pregnant.

The three of them chatted for a while, and Bei Bei invited them to have afternoon tea. Lin Gantang declined, so Bei Bei decided to check on the progress of the clothes she was having made.

After saying goodbye, Lin Gantang helped Jiang Tongtong pick out the picture books and took them straight home.

It was very quiet at home. Upon asking, she learned that Mr. Lin had taken Little Yi’an to visit next door at the Gu family’s house.

Lin Gantang turned on the TV and lazily nested into the sofa to binge-watch a series.

In the kitchen, the aroma of the soup Auntie Zhang was stewing was already wafting out.

Lin Gantang checked the time and realized that today’s dinner was prepared a bit early.

Close to dinner time, Lin Gantang saw Jiang Tongtong dressed neatly and stepping out with something in hand. She came downstairs just in time to see her and asked Auntie Zhang, “Where is Tongtong going? Isn’t she eating dinner?”

Auntie Zhang told her directly, “The Young Master said he wanted to eat home-cooked food, but he’s too busy with work to come back, so he asked her to deliver it.”

Lin Gantang: It’s all over now, delivering herself on a platter.

The office, huh?

Thrilling.
