Chapter 401 - 401: A Bestie’s Concern
Her boss’ tone was unusually respectful.
Shu Pan knew that this would happen after her relationship with Gu Shaoting went public, but she couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed. She reckoned that everyone would treat her differently after the incident.
Shu Pan didn’t tell Ye Xiaomeng about the incident; she didn’t want Ye Xiaomeng to worry about her. Given Xiaomeng’s personality, she would be very angry too.
Xiaomeng had enough worries of her own, so Shu Pan didn’t want to burden her.
Despite Shu Pan’s non -disclosure, He Ming told Ye Xiaomeng what happened.
As soon as Xiaomeng heard the news, she called Shu Pan. “Girl, am I still your bestie or not? Why didn’t you tell me right away when this thing happened? I so want to teach that b*tch a lesson.” As Shu Pan expected, Xiaomeng was very angry.
“Xiaomeng, I’m fine now. Don’t get too worked up. Besides, I slapped her first, so I didn’t lose out.” Shu Pan joked to appease Ye Xiaomeng.
“That really makes me look at you in a new light.” Ye Xiaomeng was very surprised. It was no surprise if she was the one who slapped someone first but this was unheard of for Shu Pan.
Shu Pan was known for her good temper. She usually endured being bullied. That woman must have gone overboard this time and pushed her over the edge.
“So, you shouldn’t worry.” Shu Pan sighed. If MO Lan hadn’t gone too far, she wouldn’t have started a fight.
“Well done. You should stand up for yourself and not let others bully you.” Ye Xiaomeng could finally relax.
“Xiaomeng, how are you and He Ming?” Shu Pan had been so busy lately that she had forgotten to call Xiaomeng to ask about her situation with He Ming.
“Same old, same old. How else can we be?” Ye Xiaomeng was helpless when the matter was brought up.
“As long as He Ming still feels the same way about you.” Shu Pan could only comfort her with this. After all, the person who would spend the rest of his life with Xiaomeng was He Ming.
“He Ming’s attitude hasn’t changed. After all, he knew about my history but his mother doesn’t understand. The last time we visited his parents, she was still very unhappy.” Ye Xiaomeng didn’t feel good either but things had already happened and she couldn’t turn back the clock.
“Give her more time. After all, old people aren’t that open-minded. It’s not something they would accept easily.” Shu Pan hated the person who investigated Xiaomeng to the bone. There were really all kinds of people in this world.
The truth was, Mrs. He was still unyielding in her opinion of Xiaomeng. He Ming visited his parents alone the day before yesterday. His expression was glum when he got home, probably because he tried to reason with his mother again.
He Ming had already found out that Hu Shanshan was behind the whole thing. One could only imagine how furious he was when he found out. He even swore that he would teach her a lesson someday.
That day arrived soon.
He Ming had already hired someone to tail Hu Shanshan, but she had been sticking to her routine, so he hadn’t been able to find an opportunity to get back at her.
However, the person who had been tailing Hu Shanshan just called and reported that Hu Shanshan called a friend and asked her out to Guilanfang tonight.
He Ming pondered over the information. It was Hu Shanshan’s business to like to party and drink. Since she liked to cause trouble for others, he would cause trouble for her too.
If Hu Shanshan hadn’t gone after Xiaomeng, he would have let her off. But her antics had seriously jeopardized their relationship. He would never forgive her.
He thought that he had always been nice to Hu Shanshan. He even helped her without hesitation the last time she was drunk.
She wouldn’t be so lucky this time..
