After dropping Joy off at kindergarten, Shu Pan rushed to the company. Fortunately, Joy was understanding and didn’t cry or make a fuss.

Around noon, Shu Pan received a call from the construction foreman at the Tongyuan Villa project. He explained that the client was not satisfied with some of the designs and requested modifications.

Upon hearing this, Shu Pan furrowed her brows. Weren’t these designs already confirmed? Modifying them now would not only increase costs but also delay the project. She tried to reassure the foreman and then promptly headed to the construction site.

When she arrived, to her surprise, she saw Gu Shaoting and Tong Fei standing together as if thev were a couDle.

“Mr. Gu, Ms. Tong, hello. I’m the designer for the villa renovation. May I ask which part of the plans needs to be modified?” Shu Pan acted as if she didn’t know them, maintaining a professional demeanor.

When Gu Shaoting heard Shu Pan address him as “Mr. Gu” and completely ignored him like a stranger, he felt a surge of anger. His face suddenly darkened, but he remained silent, like a statue.

Tong Fei, upon seeing Shu Pan, was even more dumbfounded. She looked at her in astonishment, unable to close her mouth.

Then, she couldn’t help but think that Shu Pan was truly persistent, showing up everywhere. Why did it seem that the more she disliked someone, the more often she encountered them?

The calmest of the three was Shu Pan herself because she had already pictured this scenario in her mind.

“No wonder, I thought the design looked too mediocre. It pales in comparison to those designs by renowned designers,” Tong Fei remarked with a mocking tone.

She then turned to Gu Shaoting and said, “Shaoting, for such a well-renovated house, why did you just randomly hire a designer? I know many famous designers. Do you need me to introduce them to you?”

Tong Fei acted as if she hadn’t seen Shu Pan and made the suggestion directly to Gu Shaoting.

“No need. I think it’s pretty good, and changing designers would be troublesome. We just need to make a minor adjustment.” Gu Shaoting politely declined her proposal.

Tong Fei, who had initially been smiling, froze upon hearing Gu Shaoting’s response. She didn’t know what to say anymore.

“Mr. Gu, do you know which part of the plans you want to modify? Because we have already signed an agreement based on the approved plans. If we make changes according to the reviewed plans, any additional costs will be your responsibility,” Shu Pan confidently addressed the situation.

‘Money isn’t an issue. I just want to add one more room for the children. The initial design only had one,” Gu Shaoting pointed to the design sketches.

“Are you planning to decorate two children’s rooms?” Shu Pan asked in surprise, as most people typically only had one.

It seemed that Gu Shaoting was planning to have two children. Shu Pan couldn’t help but imagine that he must not dislike children in general. He just disliked the idea of having children with her.

Unwittingly, this matter had become a psychological obstacle for her that she couldn’t overcome.

“Yes, with such a spacious villa, it’s definitely for more than one child. I’ll cover the additional costs,” Gu Shaoting said, deliberately keeping the conversation on this topic.

Shu Pan felt like her heart was being pricked with needles. She forced a smile and said, “Okay, I’ll go back and make the changes for your review.”

Tong Fei, standing on the sidelines, finally revealed a knowing smile.

It turned out that Gu Shaoting had planned this far ahead. However, when she thought about it further, she realized she was a model. If she had children, wouldn’t it ruin her career? And two children? She started to feel a bit unsettled..
