Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
While Ye Xiaomeng attended Mrs. He’s birthday banquet, Shu Pan went back to Lotus Town to fetch Joy.
She wanted to take a bus back, but when Gu Shaoting found out, he kept pestering to go back with her.
She did not want him to go back with her. After all, her father and Auntie Lu were not mentally prepared to meet the man they hated so much.
She couldn’t think of a way to tell them that he had been taking care of her and Joy.
But Gu Shaoting was insistent. He felt that Shu Pan’s father and Auntie Lu always had a beef with him and it was time for him to move them with his sincerity and to beg them for forgiveness.
It was a problem he had to solve sooner or later if he wanted to get back together with Shu Pan.
One of his strengths was to face his problems bravely.
Gu Shaoting was actually very nervous as he drove to Lotus Town.
As they got closer to Lotus Town, his hands holding the steering wheel grew whiter.
When they arrived, Gu Shaoting felt a little afraid. To think that he was the CEO of a large corporation who was unfazed by any problem, he felt his palms sweating at this moment.
Shu Pan ignored him and went into the house.
Shu Laide and the rest were having lunch. Auntie Lu had made a lot of delicious food and the three of them were having lunch at the dining table.
Joy was sitting on Shu Laide’s lap. “Joy, what would you like to eat? Grandpa will get it for you.”
Joy was the apple of the entire family’s eye and everyone doted on her.
Auntie Lu said with a smile, “Have some soup, sweetheart. Grandma has simmered it for a long time.”
“Isn’t Mommy coming to pick me up? Why isn’t she here yet?” Joy pouted a little unhappily.
“She’s on her way. Let’s eat first.” Shu Pan told them that she would be late and asked them not to wait for her for lunch. No one expected Joy to make a fuss…
Shu Pan happened to walk in at this time. She saw Joy’s unhappy expression and asked, “Joy, what’s wrong?”
“Mommy, you’re here. I thought you forgot to pick me up.” Joy finally cracked a smile.
“Mommy won’t forget. Hurry up and eat your lunch.” Shu Pan picked her up.
‘Mommy, where’s Uncle Gu?” Joy suddenly mentioned Gu Shaoting and a wave of nervousness swept over Shu Pan.
“Um… He’s outside.” Shu Pan pointed outside like a child who had done something wrong.
“Panpan, you’re really something. Why didn’t you ask your friend in for a home cooked meal?” Auntie Lu said reproachfully. It was insensible of her to not invite her friend in.
“Um…” Shu Pan didn’t know what to say.
“Grandma, I’ll go invite Uncle Gu in.” Joy jumped out of Shu Pan’s arms mischievously and went to the door.
Shu Laide was a little suspicious. Uncle Gu? Someone Panpan couldn’t mention? He had a bad premonition.
He got up and walked to the door. From afar, he saw a familiar figure pacing back and forth at the gate. Shu Laide stopped in his tracks and narrowed his eyes. Hmph, as he suspected, it was Gu Shaoting.
How dare this b*stard show up at his house?
He quickly walked out with his fists clenched. He then raised his hand and punched Gu Shaoting in the face.
“Gu Shaoting, you b*stard! I’m the one who let your family down. You can take revenge on me. What did Panpan do wrong? She loved you.”
Although Shu Laide was getting on with age, his punches were still powerful as he kept throwing them at Gu Shaoting.
Gu Shaoting retreated but didn’t fight back. He totally deserved this beating..
