Chapter 796: Suddenly, He Felt a Pang of Grief in His Heart

Wen Yanqing rembered this restaurant and the particular spot as well.

Because it wasn’t only Lin Gantang who had co here ti and again.

Lin Gantang sat by the window, gazing outside, waiting for the person she longed for, while he used to watch her from a seat hidden behind the greenery.

Wen Yanqing felt that today, there was no need to tell Lin Gantang about these things, because the one holding her now was him.

He was not afraid of Lin Gantang coming to this restaurant and being reminded of her mories.

Why shouldn’t he co to places where others once accompanied Tangtang? He intended not only to co here but also to ensure Lin Gantang had fun so that whenever she thought of this restaurant in the future, her mind would be filled with nothing but the sweetness and happiness related to him, overshadowing all mories she had with Gu Zhichuan.

“Been a while since I’ve been here, they’ve introduced quite a few new dishes. Let’s try them together,” Wen Yanqing said, lowering his head to talk to her.

“Did you used to co here before?” Lin Gantang asked.

“Mmm, the restaurant’s food and flavors are quite good, and it’s close to the company. I used to co here often a couple of years ago.”

Gu Zhichuan watched the two whispering intimately, all cozied up until their figures disappeared at the stairway.

He slowly sat down.

“Sir, may I ask what you would like to eat?” a waiter ca over to ask.

Gu Zhichuan replied with a somber expression, “Do you have stead fish?”

“Yes, sir.”

Gu Zhichuan didn’t know what he was doing anymore.

He had just passed by this restaurant, and standing outside the window, he couldn’t move his feet anymore.

In a daze, he saw Lin Gantang sitting by the window, her face lighting up with joy, her eyes filled with brilliance, as she stood up and said to him, “You’re here?”

When he ca to his senses, there was no one in the seat.

Unconsciously, he walked in and sat down where Lin Gantang had been.

From this spot, he could see the route he often took and make out every passing car clearly.

Suddenly, his heart ached.

He finally understood that Lin Gantang once waited here, looking at everyone outside, hoping that the next person to approach would be him.

But it was too late.

She wouldn’t be waiting here for him anymore.

He sat there, lost in thought, until the waiter brought over the food.

Gu Zhichuan looked at the plain dishes in front of him, realizing that she liked these, but to accommodate him, she had always chosen the spicy dishes he favored.

He sat there for a long ti, witnessing Lin Gantang leave at Wen Yanqing’s side, chatting and laughing rrily, and though she never looked his way again as they left, his heart was filled with a sour pain.

The evening breeze blew over, cool and refreshing.

The night had fallen, and the city lights had co on, reflecting the colorful neon on the Yuanshui River.

Lin Gantang followed Wen Yanqing to the Ferris wheel, looking at him in surprise.

“Didn’t you say before that you wanted to ride the Ferris wheel again?”

Wen Yanqing’s gaze was affectionate, his eyes smiling, rippling softly, as captivating as the night.

Lin Gantang bead with joy.

The two of them entered the Ferris wheel, ascending gradually from the very bottom.

As the Ferris wheel rose, the view expanded, and Lin Gantang looked out at the scenery ahead.

From the streetlights nearby, to the endless flow of traffic, to the lights of a myriad of hos.

Lin Gantang once didn’t understand the appeal of the Ferris wheel, finding it not the least bit thrilling. It turned slowly and just went up high.

But even at its highest point, it couldn’t compare to skyscrapers. If one desired to see the view from up high, reaching the top floor of a high-rise would offer an unobstructed perspective.

Just like the last ti she and Wen Yanqing ca, she had rely remarked that the view from above was nice, without any other thrill.

Lin Gantang looked down to see Wen Yanqing holding her hand, moving his fingers. Wen Yanqing took her hand and clasped it in his palm.

That’s when she realized that he had been watching her all along.

“The starry sky is beautiful tonight,” Lin Gantang looked up.

Stars twinkled faintly, as if hidden, like a myriad of silver lamps scattered across the sky, reflecting off one another.
