Gu Shaoting thought for a moment, then immediately grabbed his car keys and headed to Shu Pan’s house.

“Where are you going, Shaoting? I just told Tong Fei you’re at home,” Song Can called after him.

He halted his steps, paused for a moment, and then said, “I have something to do and won’t be back here tonight.”

Song Can stomped her foot in frustration, finding her son increasingly

Not long after Gu Shaoting left, Tong Fei arrived. She was dressed in the latest autumn fashion, wearing high heels, and exuding elegance.

“Auntie, look at what I brought you!” Tong Fei raised the paper bag in her hand and cheerfully said, the bag bearing the logo of a certain clothing brand.

“Why spend so much? I have everything she needs,” Song Can took the bag, smiling. Tong Fei was very skilled at making her happy.

“What are you talking about? I picked this out for you when I was abroad shooting advertisements. It’s the latest model, not yet available in China,” Tong Fei knew that Song Can had a special liking for this brand of clothing, especially the limited editions, so she always knew how to cater to her preferences, making her beam with joy.

“Let me see.” After speaking, she opened the paper bag, took out the clothes inside, and compared them to herself, her face filled with a satisfied smile.

“Hey, Auntie, where’s Shaoting? Is he not at home?” Tong Fei had been here for a while but hadn’t seen Gu Shaoting.

“Oh, he just had to step out,” Song Can said somewhat apologetically. She couldn’t fathom what Gu Shaoting was thinking. He knew Tong Fei was coming, yet he left.

Tong Fei’s expression suddenly darkened. She pretended not to care and said, “Shaoting has been very busy lately, I haven’t seen him in a while.”

“Yeah, he’s probably busy with company matters,” Song Can replied, noticing Tong Fei’s displeased expression. She felt somewhat at a loss.

Seeing Song Can’s guilty look, Tong Fei didn’t say anything further.

However, Tong Fei already harbored suspicions. Since Gu Shaoting had revealed to her that he had a daughter with Shu Pan, they had been meeting less frequently. What bothered her the most was his growing impatience with her.

She had actually visited his company, but he was always elusive, so the excuse of a busy company seemed dubious.

She didn’t dare to confront Gu Shaoting for fear of upsetting him, so she had to endure it. She felt truly humbled in her love for him.

After leaving Gu Family’s mansion, she quickly took out her phone and called her assistant, Zhou.

“Zhou, find someone to help us investigate what Shaoting has been busy with lately,” Tong Fei instructed.

“Alright, Miss Fei, ” Xiao Zhou replied before hanging up to arrange it.

Gu Shaoting arrived at Shu Pan’s house, and indeed, Shu Pan stopped him at the door.

“Don’t come over so often. Your mother just left,” Shu Pan said, visibly annoyed and feeling restless.

“Shu Pan, please open the door. Let me explain. I didn’t know my mom was coming to see you, and her attitude doesn’t represent my stance,” Gu Shaoting shouted from the staircase.

Worried about disturbing the neighbors, Shu Pan reluctantly opened the door to let him in.

“Regardless, you’re not taking Joy away. I won’t let go,” Shu Pan made her stance clear to Gu Shaoting.

“I promised I would give Joy time to adjust, and I will also handle my own matters. Please give me some time,” Gu Shaoting assured.

Shu Pan was utterly confused, wondering what he meant by “his matters.” What did his personal affairs have to do with her? She found the whole situation perplexing.

“In any case, just handle your own affairs. We don’t want to be involved,” Shu Pan retorted with a displeased expression..
