When the two of them arrived back at their hotel, they looked at each other.

“When Charlene comes for her internship, get someone to look after her. Don’t make any mistakes.” Gu Shaoting instructed He Ming.

“Sure. But judging from her expression, I think she wants you to look after her.” He Ming teased.

‘Get lost. Don’t gloat or you’ll be the one taking care of her.” Gu Shaoting was very irritable now.

“When can we go home?” Gu Shaoting asked.

“In a few more days. Have you forgotten that we still have a few clients to meet? Also, since we are here, we should pay a visit to our branch office, right?” He Ming had arranged their entire trip.

“Hurry up. I want to go home.” Gu Shaoting said helplessly.

“You make it sound like I don’t want to go home. Xiaomeng has been practically ignoring me. She’s out every day dressed to the nines, eating, drinking, and having fun.” He Ming complained.

“Did Shu Pan tag along?” Gu Shaoting asked nervously.

“I guess so. Looking at their Moments, the two of them are inseparable.” He Ming nodded.

“I’m going to ask Panpan to stay away from Ye Xiaomeng. I reckon that she’ll lead my Panpan astray.” Gu Shaoting said with conviction.

He Ming made a gagging gesture.

Would Shu Pan listen to Gu Shaoting nowadays? He doubted it.

“Try to shorten the trip. I have something important to do when I get home.” Gu Shaoting emphasized.

“Alright, my young master. I want to go back more than you do.” He Ming felt extremely helpless.

Shu Pan frowned. Why were there so many missed calls?

Why did Gu Shaoting have to say to her? It was probably nothing important.

Never mind him.

Just as Shu Pan was about to get busy, her phone rang again.

“Panpan, what are you busy with? Why didn’t you answer my calls?” Gu Shaoting thanked the heavens that his call was finally answered. He finally felt a little more at ease.

“I’m at work.” Shu Pan felt that Gu Shaoting really had nothing better to do. Did he call again just to ask her that?

“Your boss is too much of a slave driver. You don’t even have time to answer a call? Don’t worry, I’m going to buy your company. You won’t be so busy after that.” Gu Shaoting said seriously, giving Shu Pan a heads-up.

Was this man nuts? Shu Pan thought that Gu Shaoting was ridiculous and took what he said as a joke.

“If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up.” Shu Pan couldn’t help but roll her eyes.

“Nothing special. I just miss you.” Gu Shaoting said affectionately.

Shu Pan felt goosebumps all over her body when she heard that. She said, “I’m hanging up now.”

Then, she really hung up.

Gu Shaoting was furious when he heard the call disconnected tone on his phone. He turned to He Ming and said, “Hurry up and start the acquisition process. This is our main focus now.”

“What triggered you this time?” He Ming looked at his flushed face and knew that it probably have something to do with Shu Pan.

“Women are so unreasonable. She doesn’t appreciate my being nice to her.” Gu Shaoting complained.

He Ming didn’t say anything because he knew what that felt like.

Gu Shaoting and He Ming met with clients and discussed business in the days that followed.

They got back late one night and went back to their respective rooms.

Shortly after, Gu Shaoting’s phone rang. He saw that it was Tong Fei calling and rejected the call without hesitation.

But his phone rang again immediately. Gu Shaoting was a little annoyed and pressed the answer button.

“Shao…Ting… I… I’m so scared, can… Can you come over for a while?” Tong Fei cried as she said over the phone. Her words were intermittent..
