Wen Chi didn’t expect Mr. Gu’s background to be so powerful; he couldn’t help feeling a bit overwheld. If soone could genuinely love and take care of Shu Pan and her daughter, he would be genuinely happy for them.
Mr. Gu wouldn’t have to worry about money; Wen Chi believed he could provide them with happiness. At least, they wouldn’t have to worry about their basic needs anymore, and Shu Pan wouldn’t have to work so hard for their daily als.
“Alright, let’s quickly order and eat. Are you both hungry?” Shu Pan didn’t want Joy to praise Gu Shaoting and indirectly affect Wen Chi.
Wen Chi smiled, his eyes narrowing into crescents. “Don’t worry, I’m not that easily discouraged.”
“Children’s words should not be trusted; he’s just an ordinary person,” Shu Pan said nonchalantly.
“Panpan, considering the current situation, I’m happy for you and Joy. At least now you both have soone to take care of you, and it won’t be like before.
However, I also feel lost. We used to be together, but fate played a trick on us. Do I really have no chance? Have you truly thought it through?” Wen Chi, unwilling to accept the situation, asked. He felt that fate had been unfair to him.
Shu Pan knew his feelings, pursed her lips, and replied, “Chi, thank you for taking care of us all these years. In my heart, you’re my best friend, irreplaceable. You must find happiness and not let Auntie and others worry about you.”
This ti, Shu Pan bluntly rejected him in person because dragging it out would only make things more difficult for both of them.
Wen Chi’s heart tightened, feeling a mixture of emotions.
Gu Group, CEO’s Office
The office was brightly lit.
Secretary Zhang knocked on the door and entered, seeing Gu Shaoting standing by the floor-to-ceiling window. On the desk, a fast food al sat untouched, ordered by the CEO himself. Zhang, concerned, asked, “CEO, please eat sothing; it’s getting cold.”
“Sure, leave it. I don’t feel like eating now,” Gu Shaoting replied indifferently.
Secretary Zhang watched his back; despite his handso appearance, he seed lonely and desolate at the mont.
Where could Shu Pan and Joy have gone? Weren’t they usually together for als?
Gu Shaoting’s gaze complexly drifted into the distance, his mind in disarray. He really wanted to know what Wen Chi would say to Joy. Shu Pan would probably be sitting on the side, smiling and watching them chat. To outsiders, they might even seem like a married couple.
The more he thought about it, the more anxious and uncomfortable he felt.
He just wanted ti to pass quickly so he could pick up Shu Pan and Joy, but why was ti dragging on so slowly? It was agonizing.
Ti passed unnoticed. Wen Chi and Joy chatted a lot, and now it was getting late.
Joy was yawning. “Let’s go. I’ll take you back.”
Shu Pan wanted to lift Joy, but Wen Chi beat her to it, picking Joy up and walking out of the restaurant.
At the restaurant’s entrance, Gu Shaoting’s car was already parked. Seeing them co out, he opened the car door to greet them. “Let handle it.” Gu Shaoting reached out and took Joy from Wen Chi.
“Mr. Gu, thank you for choosing this restaurant. It’s been a wonderful evening,” Wen Chi sincerely thanked him.
Gu Shaoting remained cool, “You’re welco. Thank you for taking care of them.”
“Chi, it’s getting late. Be careful on your way ho,” Shu Pan, seeing Gu Shaoting, thought she might be seeing things; she had thought he was genuinely busy. Now that he was here, it was even better—no need to trouble Wen Chi..
