Let s Divorce As Agreed

Chapter 962: Chapter 961: Sticking to Trivial Matters

Everyone quickly stowed their belongings and came out, then gathered together.

Under eager anticipation, the stylish and handsome CEO Director Lu stepped in through the main entrance with a casual stride, each step setting the female colleagues’ hearts thumping wildly.

Director Lu Lei’s gaze swept over everyone, then he said, “Enjoy yourselves to the fullest, don’t be restrained; eating well and having fun are the objectives of our outing.”

Everyone was so excited they nearly jumped up and almost wanted to shout long live the CEO.

Afterward was free time.

Shu Pan adored the beach; she walked towards the sands with Sister Zhao. Haizhou Island really was stunning, with its lawns, beaches, flowers, trees, artificial hills, villa districts, and hotels.

Shu Pan spread her arms and took a deep breath.

….

Ever since Gu Shaoting had sent Shu Pan off in the car, he had been sitting on pins and needles, constantly checking his phone for fear of missing a message from her.

But by noon, there was still no word from her.

Gu Shaoting felt somewhat gloomy; after thinking for a moment, he made up an excuse and then called Shu Pan’s phone.

But after a long while, there was no response.

A deep “Chuan” character wrinkled Gu Shaoting’s brow.

Indeed, Shu Pan had forgotten. When Gu Shaoting had sent her off, he had reminded her to call back to check in once she arrived.

It wasn’t until evening that she remembered, and then she hurriedly made a phone call back.

Gu Shaoting answered immediately, “Sorry, I forgot to let you know.”

Shu Pan said somewhat embarrassedly.

“Have you arrived? How is it? Are you having fun?” Gu Shaoting asked with concern.

“Yes, got here at noon, it’s beautiful. I never expected Bin City to have such beautiful tourist spots, especially the beach, it’s so clean, the sea so blue…” Shu Pan gushed, finding it hard to stop talking.

Gu Shaoting seemed to feel her joy too, but at the same time, his heart soured a bit, feeling uneasy as it had been a long time since he had made her this happy.

He made a mental note to arrange more outings with her in the future.

“Yeah, as long as you’re happy, that’s good. I’ll take you out again when we get the chance,” Gu Shaoting promised.

Shu Pan paused, “Okay.”

A trip out had greatly broadened her horizons.

After chatting with Gu Shaoting for a while and then hanging up, Shu Pan immediately called Ye Xiaomeng; things had been so rushed that day, she hadn’t had the chance to ask her how she was doing.

“Girl, haven’t you gone to rest yet?” Ye Xiaomeng’s voice sounded quite normal, which set Shu Pan’s mind somewhat at ease.

“Not yet, how are you feeling? Is your stomach still hurting?” Shu Pan asked with concern.

“It’s nothing, don’t worry,” Ye Xiaomeng replied with a light smile.

“Have you talked to He Ming?” Shu Pan felt the heart of the issue still lay there.

“Yeah, he said it was the assistant who answered the phone,” Ms. Ye explained.

“Then why do you sound not so happy?” Shu Pan felt that now the issue was out in the open, there was no need to dwell on it.

“Girl, you’re still too naive. How could anyone let someone else answer such a private thing as a phone? Do you still think I’m a 5-year-old child?” Ye Xiaomeng’s voice was even, as though she was speaking of something that didn’t concern her.

“Xiaomeng, don’t be obstinate, maybe you’re really overthinking it. It’s normal for him to be busy and have his assistant take a call,” Shu Pan felt that making unfounded speculations would only damage the relationships between spouses.

“It’s okay, don’t worry, aren’t you on vacation? Then enjoy your holiday,” Ye Xiaomeng said, feigning nonchalance.

In truth, she didn’t want to worry Shu Pan, so she didn’t mention that even though he was busy, seeing that the call was from his wife, and a pregnant wife at that, shouldn’t he spare a minute to say a word?
