As the end of the workday approached, Shu Pan received a call from Gu Shaoting, saying he had picked up Joy. Shu Pan told him not to come and pick her up; she needed to make a trip to the supermarket.

After hanging up the phone, Shu Pan took a car to the supermarket. She bought ingredients, daily necessities for the upcoming outing, and some snacks.

Upon returning home, Gu Shaoting and Joy were already waiting. After putting away the groceries, Shu Pan began preparing dinner.

While Gu Shaoting played with Joy, Shu Pan found it strange. When they were not divorced, she often saw him socializing. Now, with the corporation developing even better, he seemed to have more free time.

In fact, Shu Pan didn’t know that Gu Shaoting deliberately avoided social events to spend more time with them.

During dinner, Gu Shaoting occasionally took care of Joy and then continued to eat. He had always been leisurely, with elegant movements.

Gu Shaoting raised an eyebrow, glanced at her, remained silent, and continued eating.

What did his silence mean? Go or not?

Seeing him not speaking, Shu Pan didn’t want to push it. She lowered her head and continued eating.

After a while, Gu Shaoting finished his meal, wiped his mouth with a tissue from the table, and casually said, “I’m not interested in this kind of activity. If I go with a large group, wouldn’t they feel less entertained? I’d rather spend time with Joy.”

Gu Shaoting made it clear that he wasn’t going.

“Oh,” Shu Pan murmured softly, disappointment evident in her voice.

Gu Shaoting, of course, noticed Shu Pan’s disappointment and couldn’t help but feel a little pleased. “Do you want me to go?” he teased.

Shu Pan heard the smugness in his voice. “Do you even have the time to go?”

“Who cares if you go or not? I care about that 200 yuan.” Shu Pan sighed inwardly.

“If you want me to go, I think I can spare some time,” Gu Shaoting pondered for a moment and said.

“Then bring Joy along,” Gu Shaoting suddenly thought of this and felt it would be nice to take Joy out for a while.

“No, I’ll take her to my dad and Auntie Lu. She hasn’t seen them for a while, and they were asking about her a few days ago,” Shu Pan sensibly declined.

Last time, bringing Joy to their company caused quite a sensation. If she did it again, who knows what new rumors would circulate.

“Are you driving with me, or taking the company bus?” Gu Shaoting asked, not daring to make decisions for her now.

“I’ll take the bus. You can bring Joy. When we get to Lotus Town, I’ll take her home,” Shu Pan suggested. She didn’t want to stand out, avoiding becoming the subject of gossip.

This way, she wouldn’t have to specially send Joy home. The little girl would probably be happy about it; Uncle Gu was like a godlike figure in her eyes now, full of admiration.

“Alright, I’ll follow your lead,” Gu Shaoting nodded.

“And about the outing, pretend you don’t know me,” Shu Pan reminded him again.

Gu Shaoting didn’t respond and went to the living room, holding Joy.

Early Saturday morning, Shu Pan got up, arranged Joy, and Gu Shaoting arrived. Today, he was dressed in a clean white casual outfit. The morning sun gently poured through the car window, adding a touch of warmth to his appearance.

One couldn’t help but marvel at the favor bestowed upon him by the heavens. At times, one had to admit that he indeed looked good.

Shu Pan stared at him early in the morning, making him feel a bit unusual. If another woman looked at him like that, he might feel repulsed, but Shu Pan’s

gaze didn’t bother him..
