Let's Divorce As Agreed

Chapter 421 - 421: Imposingly Rich

“Mom, don’t worry. Maybe she doesn’t find your son appealing,” Wen Chi joked, pretending to be nonchalant.

“My son is outstanding. If she doesn’t see it, it’s her problem,” Mrs. Wen defended, unwilling to hear anyone speak ill of her son.

Wen Chi could only smile bitterly; nothing he said seemed right.

“Mom, I won’t be home for dinner tonight. Don’t wait for me,” Wen Chi quickly changed the subject, realizing that discussing this further would lead nowhere.

After work in the afternoon, Shu Pan swiped her card to leave the office and noticed Wen Chi’s car parked at the company entrance. Walking over, she saw Wen Chi had already stepped out of the car.

“I’m picking up Joy and going straight to her. Why did you come?” Shu Pan was surprised that Wen Chi hadn’t informed her of his visit.

“Get in; I can’t wait to see Little Beauty Joy,” Wen Chi urged.

Once Shu Pan got in the car, Wen Chi steered towards Joy’s kindergarten.

Wen Chi’s car happened to pass by Gu Shaoting’s car.

Gu Shaoting watched Shu Pan sitting in the car, chatting and laughing with Wen Chi. He felt a bit uncomfortable about it.

But he had agreed to it; there was nothing he could do now.

Upon arriving at the kindergarten, Joy had already run towards them. Wen Chi opened his arms, lifting Joy off the ground. “Little Beauty Joy, did you miss Uncle?”

“Uncle Wen, I missed you so much!” Joy hugged Wen Chi’s neck and said with a sweet, childish voice. The happiness in her words was indescribable.

Wen Chi looked at her affectionately, then lovingly kissed her cheek.

“Alright, get in the car quickly. The traffic here is terrible, and it’s easy to get stuck,” Shu Pan reminded them as she watched the two’s affectionate interaction.

“Let’s go,” Wen Chi lifted Joy into the car.

Soon, the car arrived at the restaurant Gu Shaoting had reserved. It was truly eye-catching, adorned with opulence everywhere. Joy felt extremely fascinated.

They sat by the window.

“Mr. Gu didn’t come?” Wen Chi, looking around and not seeing Gu Shaoting, inquired Shu Pan.

“He has a prior engagement tonight, so he couldn’t make it,” Shu Pan casually made up an excuse. If Gu Shaoting had shown up, she probably wouldn’t have come, given the scene of yesterday’s confrontation.

“What does he do?” Wen Chi seemed to have heard about it but didn’t pay much attention. However, this time, he was somewhat curious.

“He’s the big boss. He owns a large company with many employees. I’ve been there once,” Joy interjected proudly, gesturing with her hands to emphasize the grandeur.

Wen Chi was momentarily surprised, a mix of astonishment and awkwardness in his eyes. Gu Shaoting had seemed wealthy, but he didn’t expect him to be such a big shot.

“So, he’s the big boss.” Wen Chi said with a hint of bitterness. Honestly, he never lacked in material comforts, and his career was decent. Still, he couldn’t compare to the wealth Gu Shaoting possessed. Yet, he knew Shu Pan wasn’t concerned about such things.

Proudly, Joy said, “Yes, Daddy’s money is endless.”

“Joy, don’t talk nonsense,” Shu Pan scolded, not approving of a child talking about money like that.

“Daddy said so. He said I’m his little princess, and he has a lot of money to make sure I live happily,” Joy said with a hint of grievance. Wen Chi’s face now wore a completely defeated expression..
