“What’s wrong?” Gu Shaoting sensed her unease.
“Today, you and Joy went back to the Gu Family’s mansion,” Shu Pan’s tone was affirmative.
As soon as Gu Shaoting heard this, he knew that little traitor Joy had spilled the beans.
“Yeah, Mom cback from her trip, so I went to see her on the way,” Gu Shaoting didn’t want her to feel burdened.
“Did you two have a fight?” Shu Pan asked cautiously.
“No, what nonsense are you thinking? Just wait forto cback obediently,” Gu Shaoting hugged her even tighter.
Shu Pan nodded obediently.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing her like that, Gu Shaoting couldn’t resist.
The night was still young.
In the early morning, Gu Shaoting woke up promptly at seven because he had to catch a flight.
Meanwhile, Shu Pan was still lying in bed, the covers slightly slipping off, revealing the bruises and marks all over her body.
Gu Shaoting gently pulled up the covers for her, then got up and went to Joy’s room.
His phone was already on, and there was an incoming call. “Mr. Gu, it’s almost time.”
“Okay, I’ll be down soon. You drive and wait fordownstairs,” Gu Shaoting said softly, worried about disturbing Shu Pan and Joy.
After getting ready, he decided to stop by the bedroom before leaving. He leaned down and kissed Shu Pan. She seemed to sense it and slowly opened her eyes.
“Are you leaving so early?” Shu Pan’s throat was dry, making her voice hoarse.
“Yeah, you don’t have to go to work today. Just sleep a little longer. Joy hasn’t woken up yet,” Gu Shaoting touched her cheek gently.
Shu Pan had intended to get up to see Gu Shaoting off, but she was too exhausted to move. As he was leaving, she held his hand. “Remember to callwhen you get to France.”
“Okay,” Gu Shaoting smiled gently.
After Gu Shaoting left, Shu Pan felt the emptiness in the house and found it somewhat unsettling. Since it was the weekend and she hadn’t visited her father and aunt in a long time, she decided to take Joy and go out.
When they returned, both elders were undoubtedly overjoyed. Auntie Lu glanced behind them, and Shu Pan found it odd.
“What’s wrong, Auntie Lu?”
“It’s nothing. Isn’t he coming back with you?” Auntie Lu asked, displeased.
Shu Pan smiled, “He’s on a business trip to France. Since it’s the weekend, we decided to cback and visit you.”
Lu Lifen noticed Shu Laide taking Joy out and grabbed Shu Pan’s arm. “Panpan, has Shaoting mentioned anything about marriage to you?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShu Pan shook her head. She hadn’t really thought about it, and it seemed Gu Shaoting hadn’t brought it up either.
“Are you foolish? A woman must have status and recognition,” Auntie Lu said, with a look of frustration.
It was exasperating.
Seeing Auntie Lu’s reaction, Shu Pan felt a mix of annoyance and gratitude. “Well, don’t worry, Auntie Lu. Shaoting and I have only been together for a short time. We need tto adjust, especially since we’ve been apart for so many years. Who knows if it’ll work out?” Shu Pan comforted her. If Gu Shaoting didn’t bring up marriage, she certainly wouldn’t either. That would lower her value too much. It’s not like she was desperate to get married.
“Your father’s birthday is next month. Bring him back here, and we’ll ask him what he thinks about it,” Auntie Lu suggested after a moment of thought.
Shu Pan felt a bit stunned. Was this an attempt to pressure her into marriage?
She smiled wryly, “Auntie Lu, I know where I stand on this matter. Please don’t worry.”
“When you two got married before, your father rarely inquired about anything happening at hon his birthday. But things are different now. If a man cares about you, he’ll care about your family too,” Lu Lifen had always had sreservations about this son-in-law.
Now they would see how he behaved. If he wasn’t the right person, they wouldn’t agree..
