Chapter 125: Heartwarming

“Ma’am, you are not mistaken. It is a local cat.” The shopkeeper smiled and said, “It’s a young girl who sold it. The girl was obedient and filial, so 1 agreed to her request.”
The black cat had no unkempt fur on its entire body. It was dark and its shiny bronze-colored eyes were especially lively.
The shop owner thought that Lin Gan tang was interested in the black cat, so he stepped forward and introduced it. “The black cat is eleven months old. It has a calm personality and is very patient.”
“Then why did the girl sell it?”
“Her family’s situation is special. Her grandmother was sick, and all the kittens at home have been sold for money. The girl liked this black cat very much. Her father wanted to secretly buy it from here, but she was too sensible. She didn’t let him and asked me to find a new owner for Blackie.” The shop assistant said, “Blackie is the name given by the little girl.”
Lin Gantang was moved. “It must be hard for her to bear. The girl is so sensible that it’s heartbreaking.”

It’s not easy; the house was old and dilapidated.” The shopkeeper said, “Everyone likes kittens. They’re cute. Blackie had grown up, and the black color is not stunning, so it hasn’t been sold.”
Lin Gantang asked the shopkeeper to bring the black cat out.
She went to get a cat toy. Blackie stared at the toy with its round eyes, but she did not give it to Blackie. It squatted down and waited patiently.
“The black cat wards off evil and brings fortune. 1’11 take it with me. It can guard my house.” Lin Gantang touched its black claws.
The black cat raised its paw to press down on her hand. Lin Gantang did the same, and it pressed down once more.
Lin Gantang could not help but laugh.
“That’s great.” The shop owner was delighted.
Lin Gantang asked her for a piece of paper and wrote down the address of the bookstore. “If you see the girl, please tell her to come here to see Blackie if she misses it.”
Lin Gantang took the black cat for a vaccination and a check-up. After that, she put it in isolation for a period of time to prevent the old and new cats from fighting.
Among the four cats, Ximi was the oldest and had a good temper. When the black cat was brought back, it curiously went up to sniff its new companion and did not show any signs of rejection.
Blackie dodged, still not used to the new environment.
When Wen Yanqing came over, he realized that the shop was more popular than before. Lin Gantang was busy behind the bookshelf in her work apron.
Qian Ruoxi lowered her head to sort out the records. Wen Yanqing stepped forward and knocked on the table.
“Mr. Wen?” Qian Ruoxi raised her head.
“The man who gave your boss something last time, has he been coming to the bookstore recently?” Wen Yanqing’s tone was calm.
“No.” Qian Ruoxi recalled and said, “He hasn’t been here since the last time he asked me to deliver the congratulatory gift.”
Wen Yanqing nodded.
He walked over to Lin Gantang, his tall body blocking Lin Gantang’s light.

Wen Yanqing smiled warmly, revealing his dimples. “I was passing by. 1 came in to give you this.”
He was holding crystal clear candied haws in his hand. Each hawthorn was round and red, wrapped in a layer of shiny sugar coating, red and tempting.
Lin Gantang was overjoyed.
She tore the thin film off the candied fruit and took a bite. The candied haw at the top was a little loose, so she bit the entire thing off.
Lin Gantang was stunned and reached out to take it.
Wen Yanqing could not help an but laugh. He grabbed her wrist and lowered his head to kiss her lips, biting off half of the candied hawthorn in her mouth.
Lin Gantang’s fair and rosy face was even more delicate than the color of candied haws.
“I’ll leave first. 1 still have something on.” Wen Yanqing touched her lips affectionately and said softly.
Lin Gantang licked her lips.
Candid haws warmed her heart..
