Chapter 1130: Chapter 1129: The First Outburst of Anger
Shu Pan heard her provocative tone, yet didn’t get angry and maintained her composed expression.
“I ca here spontaneously, wanting to surprise him, but since he’s not here, it doesn’t matter. I’ll call him later.” Shu Pan didn’t want to stoop to Xia Xiaoqiao’s level.
“Mom, is dad not in the office?” Joy said unhappily, it was rare for her to co here and her dad wasn’t even present.
“Yes, dad might be busy with sothing. Let’s call him later, for now, mom will take you out to eat,” Shu Pan explained patiently.
“Sure.” Joy was still a child, and the ntion of food made her forget her unhappiness.
Shu Pan looked at her carefree expression and thought to herself that it was better to be a child, as the adult world was really too complicated and exhausting.
“Mrs. Gu, I’m really sorry for making you co here for nothing. Next ti you can call ahead before coming,” Xia Xiaoqiao’s tone sounded a bit schadenfreude.
“You needn’t bother, Secretary Xia. You should focus on your work instead, cherish it, because things are uncertain, and you might be gone by the next ti I’m here.” Shu Pan always lived by the principle of not provoking others unless provoked.
And Shu Pan was famously good-natured; Ye Xiaong often likened her to the Virgin Mary.
But for her to say sothing so serious showed she was really upset.
“Mrs. Gu, rest assured, I will do my utmost to assist Mr. Gu,” Xia Xiaoqiao replied, seemingly respectfully.
“Just do as you should,” Shu Pan said, then left with Joy.
Xia Xiaoqiao watched their departing figures, deep in thought.
…..
Shu Pan didn’t want to show her anger in front of Joy, so she casually asked what Joy wanted to eat.
Looking eager, Joy said she wanted to eat KFC.
Normally, Shu Pan didn’t take her kids to eat such things, but today, seeing the look in Joy’s eyes, she decided to indulge her.
After all, her dad was absent from the parent-child event, and she couldn’t find him when she looked for him, which made the child sowhat unhappy.
“Let’s go, we’ll treat ourselves well today,” Shu Pan declared.
Being a child, upon hearing Shu Pan’s words, she started dancing happily.
Children are children, a little thing can switch their tears to laughter.
But it’s different for adults, which is why it’s so exhausting.
After eating at KFC, Shu Pan took Joy for a walk outside, bought a few clothes, and then they headed ho.
Upon arriving ho, she collapsed exhausted on the couch, not wanting to say a word.
Gu Shaoting guessed it was they who were coming, then he opened the door and ca out of the study.
“You’re back? Why so late?” Gu Shaoting had been ho since the afternoon because the parent-child event was still going, so he didn’t call Shu Pan.
Shu Pan didn’t want to talk to him, so she closed her eyes, pretending to be asleep.
Gu Shaoting sat close to her, then began to massage her feet.
Shu Pan remained indifferent. All she could think of was, what did this man really consider her to be?
Did he still care about her feelings?
She had endured so much hardship and suffered greatly in the past but had persevered. However, now she didn’t want to suffer even a little.
Won should also live with their own grace, not be led by the nose by n, to be easily fooled.
“Shaoting, do I look very foolish?” Shu Pan suddenly spoke, then slowly opened her eyes.
Gu Shaoting’s hand paused, and he frowned, “Why do you think that? You are not foolish at all.”
