Chapter 173: Envy
Shu Pan no longer paid attention to Gu Shaoting, just focusing on eating with her head down. Gu Shaoting noticed and reached out to put so at from the plate into Shu Pan’s bowl.
“Have so more at. You look like a paper-thin figure, ready to topple with a gust of wind,” Gu Shaoting said in a gentle tone, causing Shu Pan’s heart to flutter.
Shu Pan was montarily stunned, not expecting such a gesture from Gu Shaoting. She picked a few grains of rice with her chopsticks, chewing slowly, while pondering what Gu Shaoting might an by this.
But he remained calm and composed, giving away no clues about his intentions.
The next day, Shu Pan left for the company early. Gu Shaoting watched her leave and paced around the house. He wanted to ask her not to go to work, but they had agreed on it, and he couldn’t interfere.
So boring! Gu Shaoting rubbed his head in frustration,
“Brother, where are you? I’m so bored at ho. I want to visit the company. Is it convenient?” Gu Shaoting, feeling utterly bored, reluctantly called He Ming.
“Um… um… Wait a mont, I’ll co pick you up.” He Ming on the other end of the phone seed a bit distracted.
Hearing He Ming’s response, Gu Shaoting furrowed his brow, a bit puzzled about what might be happening.
Indeed, sothing had happened. He Ming was facing pressure from his family to get married and had been introduced to potential girlfriends. He firmly declined, but his family thought he simply hadn’t found soone he liked yet and continued the matchmaking efforts.
They even went as far as to say that he could bring his preferred girl ho, thinking that would be the only way to prove he was serious. He Ming could only ask his family for more ti, as he was still working on winning Ye Xiaong’s heart and didn’t want to complicate matters further.
Shortly after, He Ming drove to Shuimu Qinghua to pick up Gu Shaoting. “Brother Ting, life is so annoying, full of things not going well,” He Ming complained as soon as the two got into the car, seeking so comfort.
“Fortunately, I still find life beautiful at the mont. Every day is exciting,” Gu Shaoting said cheerfully, displaying a happy and contented deanor that seed sowhat provocative.
Taking advantage of a red light, He Ming glanced at Gu Shaoting. Indeed, he looked healthy, radiant, and still exuded a remarkable aura.
“Why, Shu Pan takes good care of you. You seem to be in heaven already in her care,” He Ming teased.
“Right? Comparing to the past, I have more than enough now,” Gu Shaoting modestly replied, the happiness in his eyes hard to ignore.
Unable to help himself, He Ming took another look, feeling a bit envious. When would he and Ye Xiaong succeed? It seed like a long and uncertain journey.
Arriving at the company, Gu Shaoting and He Ming walked side by side towards the elevator. He Ming observed Gu Shaoting’s movents, which seed natural and devoid of any nervousness. He couldn’t help but be suspicious, “Are you really experiencing amnesia, or is it fake?”
“What do you think?” Gu Shaoting answered evasively, making it hard to discern the truth.
“Who would joke about sothing like this?” Gu Shaoting continued.
He Ming seed to agree, nodding in acknowledgnt.
In the office, Gu Shaoting naturally stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, glanced below, and then asked He Ming, “How’s the company operating lately?
Any troubles?”
“No, it’s going well. Just that we’ll have to go to France for a few days on business. You’ll have to handle the negotiations.” He Ming checked the mo on the desk and reminded him..
