Chapter 601: Lost and Disoriented

She left the Gu Family’s mansion with an excuse, looking lost and disoriented.

She was in a daze, at times glaring with anger. The news came too suddenly, and she was devastated by the heavy blow.

Brother Gu had gotten married discreetly.

She had admired him for so long, but now she really felt her faith collapse.

She alone wandered on the street, thinking about Gu Shaoting and Shu Pan.

She couldn’t understand why Gu Shaoting liked and married Shu Pan when she was so ordinary that she could be easily found on the streets.

Was it just because she gave birth to a daughter for him? Was it true that a child would make the mother noble?

She really couldn’t think of any other reason.

She thought if that was the reason, then she believed Gu Shaoting did not truly like her but felt obligated to give his child a home.

Thinking of this, she felt more at ease.

Marriage could also end in divorce, after all. Finally feeling a bit less depressed, she walked into a high-end women’s clothing store and decided to dress herself up nicely.

She didn’t believe that she couldn’t attract Brother Gu. She was in the right place and still had an advantage.

Shu Pan started work on the third day after her honeymoon. She had told the manager about it before, so only the manager knew that she was on marriage leave.

After she returned, she didn’t give out wedding candies to keep a low profile. She was thinking of treating everyone to a meal after a while.

“Shu Pan, you’re finally back to work. I’ve been so bored recently.” Tang Wei pouted.

“It’s because there hasn’t been any gossip recently.” Shu Pan smiled.

“You’re so annoying. How can you say that? There hasn’t been anything interesting recently.” Tang Wei sighed.

“Where’s your Prince Charming?” Shu Pan asked. She looked depressed and didn’t look like someone who was in love.

“Don’t talk about it. It’s over,” said Tang Wei dejectedly.

“When did this happen? How come I didn’t hear of it?” Shu Pan asked in surprise.

“It’s not an honorable thing to go around talking about heartbreak.” Tang Wei didn’t even want to mention it.

Her ex-boyfriend was a scumbag, playing around with two women. He developed feelings for one of their colleagues over time and only admitted it when she caught them in the act.

Scumbag! Scumbag!

“It’s okay. The next one will be better,” Shu Pan comforted her and said.

“Shu Pan, keep a close eye on Mr. Gu. I heard that there are many beautiful women in the headquarters.” Tang Wei reminded her.

In today’s era of instant relationships, some people would just drift apart along the way. They couldn’t withstand the realities of life and thus lose sight of their original intentions.

“If something really happens, I can’t control it anyway.” Shu Pan didn’t mind. There was no need to stay together if it really came to that point.

At around 11 o’clock, the director called Shu Pan to the office.

“Shu Pan, you’ve just started work and haven’t been assigned any work. Is it convenient for you to deliver a document to the headquarters of the Gu Group?” The director asked because he knew she would occasionally have lunch with Mr. Gu.

“No problem. Just pass me the document. Should I give it to Secretary Zhang?” Shu Pan agreed readily.

“Yes, thank you.” After saying that, the director handed the document to Shu Pan.

Shu Pan looked at the time. It would be almost noon when she arrived at the Gu Group.

She wondered if Shaoting would ask her out for lunch. She thought to herself while packing her things.

Just as she was about to leave, Gu Shaoting called.

“Honey, what are you doing?” Gu Shaoting’s deep voice always sounded so pleasant.

“I was just about to go to the Gu Group to deliver a document to Secretary Zhang,” replied Shu Pan.

“Alright, come up to my office after you’re done.” Gu Shaoting immediately made the arrangements.
