Chapter 676: Silent Treatment

Everyone was shocked by the scene before their eyes. They had never seen such a gentle and considerate side of Mr. Gu. His relationship with Shu Pan was obvious.

The office was instantly in an uproar, everyone whispering to each other.

Shu Pan truly never showed off. Previously, there were rumors that her relationship with the CEO wasn’t bad, but they were skeptical as they had never seen it with their own eyes. Now, everyone knew and believed it.

“Yes.”

“Why are you here? Everyone is watching,” Shu Pan complained.

“Silly girl, what does it matter? Let’s go home.” After speaking, Gu Shaotinge grabbed Shu Pan’s hand and walked toward the door. As he walked, he said, “Everyone, it’s been a long day. A safe journey home.”

His words touched everyone. It was indeed rare to see such a down-to-earth CEO. After all, he had always been high up on a pedestal.

Only Seeing them leave did everyone dare to express their own opinions.

“Shu Pan is truly too low-key. It seems that she’s living with the CEO.”

“Yeah, she’s probably our lady boss.”

“Mr. Gu is truly super handsome. The scene where he held Shu Pan’s hand was so awesome.”

Everyone was discussing animatedly, as lively as a market.

On the way home, Shu Pan said reproachfully, “Everyone knows about it now.”

It was truly distressing. From now on, everyone would feel compelled to act in a way that pleased her.

Gu Shaoting smiled and didn’t say anything.

But then he quickly asked, “Why didn’t you pick up my calls today?”

“I didn’t hear it,” Shu Pan said indifferently.

“Panpan, tell me if you have any thoughts, don’t keep them to yourself.” Gu Shaoting knew that Shu Pan was up to something because she had been depressed for the past few days. It seemed like she had seen him hugging Charlene on his mother’s birthday.

He had already explained nothing was between them, and he was just fulfilling her request before she left.

Shu Pan was silent, and Gu Shaoting continued, “Are you still bothered by Charlene’s matter?”

“Shaoting, I care about your attitude toward this matter. You must be thinking that it’s no big deal, right? You think there’s nothing between you two, and I’m just being unreasonable?”

Shu Pan was unsure if it was due to her pregnancy that she had been sentimental recently and felt insecure.

If this had happened in the past, and if Gu Shaoting had realized his mistake, she would have let it go, and this matter would be over.

But this time, she just couldn’t figure it out and convince herself.

She felt uncomfortable deep down when she thought of that scene, especially Charlene’s provocative gaze at the end. It made her even angrier. Who gave her such confidence?

“This matter is already in the past. I’ll pay more attention in the future.” Gu Shaoting felt that he had a clear conscience. What had happened to Shu Pan? She was unlike her in the past.

Shu Pan looked at him with a hurt expression. From his slightly impatient tone, she knew that he still felt that she was unreasonable.

At this moment, she fell silent.

Gu Shaoting explained several times and lost his patience.

The two did not speak, and their expressions were dark.

Gu Shaoting felt helpless and let Shu Pan calm down.

Shu Pan entered the bedroom and closed the door when they reached home.

Gu Shaoting did not want to be outdone. He went to the study, feeling rather baffled.

Neither of them spoke to each other, marking their first silent treatment since marriage.
