He Ming finally felt a little better. It turned out that he wasn’t the only one who was troubled by love.

“They’re probably just ordinary friends. What’s the big deal about having a meal?” He Ming comforted Gu Shaoting. How big of a matter was this?

“But based on my understanding of Shu Pan, if it’s not someone very important, she won’t bother with them.” Gu Shaoting felt that this person was a threat.

“Then you should think about how to get Shu Pan back and make her change her mind. After all, you were quite a jerk to her before.” Sigh, honest advice is unpleasant to the ear.

If looks could kill, He Ming would have died many times in Gu Shaoting’s glare.

He Ming felt that he was just caring for him.

“I feel that she does not even treat me as a normal friend now. Usually, I’m the one shamelessly approach her.” Gu Shaoting didn’t feel embarrassed in front of He Ming.

After all, one more person meant more plans.

“Then you have to be more patient, and gentle, and show your manly charisma.” He Ming didn’t know if this method would work.

“I still have a chance of winning. After all, I have a daughter.” Gu Shaoting suddenly thought of Joy.

“Daughter? You remember her?” He Ming was shocked.

“Yes, I’ve regained my memory. But only you know now. Don’t tell anyone else.” Gu Shaoting instructed.

“Especially not to Shu Pan.” If she knew, she probably wouldn’t even let him get close to her. She would feel that he had recovered, she would have no responsibility towards him anymore.

“Brother Ting, you’ve hidden it quite well.” He Ming sighed. What an old fox.

“Aren’t I telling you now?” Gu Shaoting didn’t want to argue with him.

He Ming opened the bag, took out a bottle for Gu Shaoting, and opened one for himself. He raised his head and took a big gulp.

“Brother Ting, if you like Shu Pan, don’t let her down again. She’s really been through a lot these past few years. I heard from Xiaomeng that she can’t imagine how a woman gets through all the debts on top of having a child to take care of.”

He Ming suddenly said very seriously that he had to side with Xiaomeng. He also felt very sad when he saw Shu Pan and Joy.

That was why he said that Gu Shaoting was a jerk previously.

Even if Shu Pan didn’t accept Gu Shaoting now, he deserved it. He didn’t deserve sympathy.

He Ming thought so in his heart, but he definitely couldn’t show it.

“I know…” Gu Shaoting’s voice was low.

That was why he had done everything he could to protect her and give them a good life, then slowly integrate himself into their lives.

“Alright, let’s not talk about it anymore. Cheers.” He Ming raised his beer glass.

Suddenly, Gu Shaoting recalled how he lost his memory. “Mingzi, I was hit by a car, but I saw that the car was heading in the direction of Shu Pan. I pushed her away, otherwise, Shu Pan would have been the one hit. Did you check the surveillance camera atterwards(”

“That’s a blind spot. I can’t see anything. Moreover, that car doesn’t have a license plate.” He Ming shook his head. He felt that something was wrong. It was too much of a coincidence.

“Is there no way to verify it?” Gu Shaoting asked.

“Yes, there are no clues at all.” He Ming also felt helpless.

“Whether it’s a coincidence or on purpose, we still have to be careful in the future. I have a feeling that this incident is targeted at Shu Pan. I wonder if she has offended anyone.”

Gu Shaoting thought about it and decided to keep them by his side to protect them.

“Yes, we should be more careful. After all, if they don’t succeed this time, I’m afraid there will be a next time.” He Ming reminded.

Gu Shaoting nodded, thinking about how to make Shu Pan and Joy stay by his side every day.

If Shu Pan is so hard to handle, he would start with Joy. Perhaps, they could get along well like father and daughter. He really looked forward to the day when Joy would call him Daddy..
