Shu Pan was browsing online to see if there were any fun places to visit. Xiaomeng had mentioned a trip to Singapore, Malaysia, and Thailand a couple of days ago, and after checking out the attractions today, Shu Pan was convinced they were worth visiting, especially Singapore, with its garden-like atmosphere, a place she had been wanting to visit for a long time.

However, she hadn’t told Gu Shaoting about this yet. She planned to inform him tonight.

Yesterday, Joy had already gone to her grandfather’s house, so Shu Pan finally had some time to prepare properly.

She had already applied for leave and was ready to go at any time.

Coincidentally, Xiaomeng called. “Girl, get your documents ready. We’re leaving the day after tomorrow.”

“Okay,” Shu Pan said happily.

“Remember to tell your man. Who knows, maybe he doesn’t want you to go? It’s finally peaceful without Joy here,” Xiaomeng teased, seeming to know Gu Shaoting inside out.

Blushing over the phone, Shu Pan replied, “There’s nothing to be attached to. It’s been a long time since I went out. I’ll tell him later. But the thing is, I don’t have much money, so I probably won’t be able to buy much.”

“You’re worried he won’t give you money?” Xiaomeng scoffed. “Seriously?”

“Think about it. The man you’re going to marry is a billionaire. He’s loaded. Are you embarrassed to mention it to us?”

“I don’t know. We don’t talk about money now. I’m not shallow,” Shu Pan defended herself.

Xiaomeng couldn’t help but chuckle. Some things never change.

Around seven o’clock, Gu Shaoting returned home with his hands in his pockets. “Had dinner?”

“Yeah,” Shu Pan chirped, bouncing over to him. “I’m planning to go on a trip to Singapore, Malaysia, and Thailand with Xiaomeng the day after tomorrow.”

“What? Are you planning to leave me at home?” Gu Shaoting accused, his eyes betraying a hint of melancholy.

Blushing under his intense gaze, Shu Pan took the opportunity to say, “We’ll only be gone for a few days. We’ll be back soon.”

After saying this weakly, she observed his expression. Gu Shaoting glanced at her from the corner of his eye. “Why suddenly decide to go on a trip? There were no signs. If you want to go, I can take you. ”

“I haven’t been on a trip for several years,” Shu Pan pouted. “Just a few days of relaxation with Xiaomeng. She’s not feeling well, and I’ll accompany her. You’re so busy, when do you have time?”

“I’m okay with you going on a trip for a few days, but if you do, you owe me the benefits for those days,” Gu Shaoting hinted.

“What benefits?” Shu Pan’s heart raced as he looked at her. Pretending to be clueless, she innocently turned her eyes. “I don’t know.”

“I can teach you,” Gu Shaoting said, then lowered his head to kiss her soft lips.

After a moment, he released Shu Pan. “Understood?”

Shu Pan nodded shyly, her face flushing.

“In the future, you need to tell me in advance where you plan to go. You can’t just decide to leave suddenly,” Gu Shaoting still harbored some lingering concerns. Shu Pan being away for a few days left him feeling uneasy being alone at home.

“Okay, I got it,” Shu Pan, feeling a bit stingy, wanted to roll her eyes at him, but she held back.

Gu Shaoting’s cold gaze softened under the light, but his expression still lacked warmth. “When you get there, remember not to stir up trouble. Just the two of you going, honestly, I’m not very reassured.”

“I’ll be careful,” Shu Pan nodded earnestly.

Seeing her obedient demeanor, Gu Shaoting’s brows relaxed slightly as he patted her head. “You’re really troublesome.”

Shu Pan pulled him closer and asked, “Have you eaten?”

She quickly diverted his attention.

“Yes, go take a shower quickly, and then I’ll see if you need anything before you leave.”

“Okay,” Shu Pan stuck out her tongue playfully, then hurried back to the bedroom.
