Gu Shaoting and Tong Fei each had their thoughts, and they both fell silent, focusing on their meal. Gu Shaoting’s mind often wandered to the adorable little Joy and Shu Pan.
Tong Fei’s face seemed somewhat blurry.
After dinner, Gu Shaoting dropped Tong Fei off at her home. He felt troubled and decided to call He Ming to go for a drink.
“Where are you? Come out for a drink,” Gu Shaoting assumed He Ming would agree.
To his surprise, He Ming declined, his voice fluctuating over the phone. “Ting, it’s not a good time right now. We’ll talk later.”
He Ming hung up after speaking.
Gu Shaoting looked at the disconnected call, feeling puzzled. He pondered for a moment and unconsciously drove to Shu Pan’s building. As he looked at the location, his heart softened.
Wen Chi returned home to find his mother busy. He went over to help, and Mrs. Wen gave him a strange look.
She thought, “What’s going on today? Being so attentive for no apparent reason.”
In her puzzlement, Wen Chi cautiously began, “Mom, Shu Pan is really a good girl. I want to date her with the intention of marriage.”
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Wen dropped the cloth she was holding onto the table heavily.
She thought that by not mentioning it recently, Wen Chi had understood her stance and wouldn’t bring it up again. But his feelings had remained unchanged all along.
If Wen Chi were to marry Shu Pan, how would others see him, how would they view their family?
Mrs. Wen didn’t speak, and Wen Chi, noticing her solemn expression, continued, “Mom, I hope you understand. I truly like Shu Pan, and her daughter Joy is really adorable.”
“What did she feed you, a love potion that’s made you infatuated with her day in and day out?” Mrs. Wen’s anger grew at the thought.
“In any case, I don’t agree.”
Wen Chi, worried about her high blood pressure, didn’t want to upset her further. He hugged her and said, “Okay, okay, I won’t say anything more.” Mrs. Wen looked at Wen Chi and felt that he had become obsessed.
The next day at noon, Mrs. Wen brought a handbag to Shu Pan’s company building just as work was ending. She called Shu Pan, hoping to have a conversation with her.
The moment Shu Pan received the call, her heart skipped a beat. She didn’t expect Mrs. Wen to reach out to her.
She quickly packed her things and came out. They sat down at a restaurant to the left of the company’s entrance.
“It doesn’t matter. I came to see you this time, and I think you know why. I hope you can break up with Wen Chi. You two aren’t a good match,” Mrs. Wen got straight to the point. She didn’t want to beat around the bush.
“Auntie, is this about Joy, my daughter?” Shu Pan responded calmly.
“That’s one reason. Besides, we hope that Wen Chi can marry someone from an appropriate family. Shu Pan, this society is very practical, and we live under the scrutiny of others.”
“Wen Chi has been outstanding since childhood, and he doesn’t need my worry. His father and I have high hopes for him. Auntie, I hope you can understand and consider separating from him.”
Mrs. Wen’s words pierced Shu Pan’s heart like needles. She knew this outcome was expected, and she truly appreciated his efforts, but she couldn’t ignore his mother’s feelings.
A love that wasn’t blessed was not happiness.
“Auntie, I understand,” Shu Pan replied softly..
