Chapter 737: Misunderstanding Created
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Did she call the wrong number? Shu Pan glanced at her phone again. It was Gu Shaoting’s number she dialed, but why was there a woman’s voice?
Was she hallucinating? Shu Pan dialed Gu Shaoting’s number again, but she heard the “phone turned off” message.
Shu Pan’s heart dropped. What happened?
Everything was fine yesterday. Why did things change today?
She was about to go to bed when Auntie Li informed her that Gu Shaoting had called not long ago. She only called him back to find out what was up.
But what was going on? She had no answer now.
She didn’t believe that Gu Shaoting would cheat on her, but she had indeed heard a woman’s voice over the phone. What could be the explanation?
She was very worried and scared at the same time.
…
Gu Shaoting slept all the way until dawn. He woke up sleepy and clueless about what happened last night. He also didn’t know that what was going to happen next would cause his life to turn upside down.
He saw himself lying on a hotel bed when he opened his eyes. Everything around him looked unfamiliar and he was confused.
He shook his head but couldn’t recall what happened last night.
He ate and drank with Qin Zhen last night. He seemed to have drunk too much and woke up here. It was probably Qin Zhen who checked him into a hotel so he could sleep it off.
He looked at himself in the mirror. His clothes were clean. He probably didn’t embarrass himself last night.
He let out a bitter laugh. He absolutely mustn’t let Shu Pan know that he drank again, and that he was so drunk. Otherwise, she would nag him again.
He washed up quickly and planned to go back to his own hotel to shower and change before he went to the office. He just needed to hand over his work and then he could go home.
…
Night was replaced by day and Shu Pan’s biological clock woke her up.
She didn’t really sleep last night; she only rested with her eyes closed.
When she sat up in bed, her eyes were sore and painful. Then, she noticed that her face was cold and wet. She wiped it with her hand and found out that it was covered in tears.
Shu Pan thought for a moment. She hadn’t cried in a long time. She had indeed become more spoiled because she didn’t cry even when her life was hell.
She wasn’t aware of it at all. She didn’t even remember how she had shed tears.
After sitting blankly in bed for a while, she got up and went to the bathroom to wash up.
When she came out, her phone was ringing.
It was Ye Xiaomeng calling.
“Hello…”
“Girl, are you up? I’m coming to get you now.” Ye Xiaomeng’s chirpy voice came from the other end of the phone.
“Okay.” Shu Pan’s voice was as hoarse as a crow.
Ye Xiaomeng was shocked. “Girl, are you okay? Your voice sounds really bad. Are you not feeling well?”
Shu Pan was also shocked by her own voice. “I’m fine. I’m probably thirsty. I’ll be fine after drinking some water.”
“That’s good.” Ye Xiaomeng heaved a sigh of relief.
The two of them were supposed to go shopping together. Because they were both pregnant, they went out together much less often now.
After the two of them met, they walked around for a bit. Shu Pan was a little distracted as she kept wondering about what happened to Gu Shaoting last night.
Until now, she still hadn’t received a call from Gu Shaoting.
She was anxious, but there was nothing she could do.
Ye Xiaomeng noticed her strange behavior and pulled her into a café. The two pregnant women ordered a pot of fruit tea and a fruit salad.
“Tell me, don’t hide anything from me. What happened?” Ye Xiaomeng was interrogating her like a criminal.
“I’m fine. Why are you so serious?” Shu Pan replied with feigned jokiness. Xiaomeng’s wedding was coming up. Shu Pan didn’t want to bother her with her problems.
Ye Xiaomeng stared at Shu Pan quietly until she said helplessly, “Fine. I’m scared of you. I’m wondering if Gu Shaoting is cheating on me.”
