Let's Divorce As Agreed

“Brother Ting, I’m sorry. This is typical of pregnant women. They’re more sensitive and like filling leaky buckets. Their mood is like the weather in spring – totally unpredictable.” He Ming leaned over and whispered in Gu Shaoting’s ear, sharing his latest insight.

In short, pregnant women were difficult. One just had to go along with them. Xiaomeng was now He Ming’s empress dowager.

Shu Pan didn’t touch the beef after she ate some fruits.

Ye Xiaomeng was confused, so she asked, “Girl, what’s wrong? Isn’t beef your favorite?”

“Panpan is pregnant.” Gu Shaoting’s tone was flat but his eyes were smiling. He finally didn’t have to put up with He Ming’s bragging. His wife was also pregnant now. One must admit that men were just so childish sometimes.

“Wow, really? You are pregnant? That’s great.” Ye Xiaomeng was stunned for a moment before she responded.

“Yes, I am.” Shu Pan was a little shy to talk about this in public.

“Congratulations, Brother Ting. I didn’t expect you to be so fast.” He Ming teased.

“But of course.” Gu Shaoting affectionally put his arm around Shu Pan’s shoulders.

They had been working very hard, so their chances of hitting the jackpot were high.

Shu Pan had mixed feelings though. They had been working on having a baby for a long time but they had encountered some difficulties in their relationship. She was glad that things had finally blown over.

“This is so great. It’s indeed something worth celebrating.” Ye Xiaomeng said happily.

After dinner, everyone went home.

Not long after Shu Pan arrived home, she got a call from Gu Huanhuan.

She was a little surprised. They hadn’t been in touch for a while because Gu Huanhuan had gone overseas to film.

“Cousin-in-law, do you have a minute?” Gu Huanhuan’s youthful voice came from the other end of the phone.

“Hi, Huanhuan. Yes. We just got home and it’s not yet bedtime for us.” Shu Pan looked at the time and saw that it was only 9 p.m. “What’s up?”

Shu Pan knew that Gu Huanhuan wasn’t someone who called for no reason.

“Um… Cousin-in-law, do you know any good gynecologist?” Gu Huanhuan found it difficult to put into words what she wanted to say. It was a rather private matter.

“Yes, in a way.” Shu Pan thought for a moment. Wen Chi was a famous OBGYN.

“Cousin-in-law, is your friend dependable? I feel a little uncomfortable down there and would like to consult a doctor. Please refer me if you know someone. I’m afraid that I’ll be found out if I went shopping for a gynecologist.” Gu Huanhuan felt extremely unlucky. The weather was cold and humid at her filming location. She had been there for more than a month and was feeling an unbearable itch in her nether region. It was probably a yeast infection.

“Very dependable. When are you coming back? I’ll help you set up an appointment.” Shu Pan was going to refer Huanhuan to Wen Chi, who was an expert in this area. If Huanhuan was shy, she would ask Wen Chi to refer her to another gynecologist.

“Thank you, cousin-in-law. But your contact is dependable, right? She won’t leak the fact that I’ve visited a gynecologist?” Gu Huanhuan said uneasily. “I’m sort of a public figure now. If word gets out that I went to a gynecologist, reporters and the media will surely write nonsense about me having an abortion, being promiscuous and rubbish like that.”

“No. He’s very strict about patient confidentiality. Don’t worry, he is a dependable person.” Shu Pan understood Wen Chi. He was not a gossip and he disdained gossips. He had high ethical standards.

“That’s great. I’ll probably be home the day after tomorrow. I’ll look for you then.” Gu Huanhuan was relieved. This was an urgent matter and she couldn’t wait to go home immediately after her filming wrapped.

“Sure. I’ll set things up when you are back.” Shu Pan nodded.

The two of them chatted for a while before they hung up.
