Let's Divorce As Agreed

Chapter 464: An Interlude at the Banquet

She did it on purpose. After all, her brother was so strict with her.

Nowadays, her assistants and managers were all arranged by him. She had no freedom at all, and she had to maintain a certain distance from everyone.

But deep down, she wouldn’t let Shu Pan wear very sexy clothes, just teasing her brother to make him nervous.

Knowing Shu Pan’s beauty, no one should bully her in the future.

So, she helped Shu Pan pick out a relatively conservative dress, white in color, normal in the front but with a bit of back exposure. It was a new style from a brand, combining innocence and elegance.

Gu Huanhuan chose a cool pantsuit for herself.

Glancing at the sky, she then pulled Shu Pan along. “Ah, come on, let’s hurry, or we’ll be late.”

Shu Pan nodded, wanting to go and return early. Because when they were leaving, Gu Shaoting touched her face and told her to make sure to come back early, not later than 10 0’clock.

His tone was unquestionable.

If she didn’t return on time, he would probably come to the venue to find her.

At that moment, Shu Pan readily agreed to ensure a smooth departure.

After all, she was just accompanying Huanhuan. There were no important people or events there that could keep her for so long.

Ming waiting for him, holding a beer. Gu Shaoting knew he must have something on his mind since he rarely saw He Ming drink, unless he was upset.

After settling Joy down since she hadn’t taken her nap, she quickly fell asleep, Gu Shaoting and He Ming went to the balcony. There were tables and chairs there, and they sat down to chat.

“Is Shu Pan not at home?” He Ming asked. He had been here for a while and hadn’t seen her.

“She went to a banquet with Huanhuan, ” Gu Shaoting said, his tone somewhat melancholic.

He Ming knew Gu Huanhuan and was aware that she was now a celebrity, seemingly quite famous.

“Oh, no wonder,” He Ming clicked his tongue twice.

“What about you? Why are you so free tonight?” Gu Shaoting shifted the topic to him.

“Xiaomeng went home. She’s been feeling down lately, so she went back to relax,” He Ming’s tone grew even lower.

Their relationship with Xiaomeng had been full of twists and turns, and those were facts that left no room for turning back.

Initially, he thought that if he had a child, his mother would compromise for the sake of her grandchild. But now, Xiaomeng was having difficulty getting pregnant.

Gu Shaoting didn’t know how to comfort him. Every family had its own troubles.

When Shu Pan and Gu Huanhuan arrived, there were already many people there, and Shu Pan saw many faces that she could only see on television.

They were really thin and beautiful.

“How is it, cousin-in-law? It’s lively, isn’t it?” Huanhuan, despite being relatively new, had a large following.

During the event, people even brought notebooks for her to sign.

“Yeah, they’re all so beautiful,” Shu Pan exclaimed. She was truly broadening her horizons because Gu Shaoting rarely took her to such events. “It’s just okay. If you dress up, you’ll be even more beautiful than them,”

Huanhuan laughed.

“Nonsense.”

For some reason, when Shu Pan and Gu Huanhuan were talking, she suddenly felt a chill down her spine. She paused and glanced around. The people behind her were all chatting with others, not paying much attention to her.

But why did she feel something strange?

Was it just her imagination? She always felt like someone was staring at her..
