Chapter 707: Return Date Pending

Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The entertainment industry was just that cruel. It was really difficult for her to get jobs nowadays.

She had to kowtow to her clients just to get a small part in an unknown commercial.

But if she didn’t do that, she’d probably starve to death.

Tong Fei stared at the man’s back with hatred in her eyes and her mind faraway.

“Brother Gu, hurry up and eat. The steak is getting cold.” Charlene was enthusiastic as always.

Gu Shaoting’s lowered his eyes without saying a word. There was no displeasure on his face except the tightness around his mouth, which reflected his true feelings.

He couldn’t stand Charlene’s enthusiasm. After all, he was a married man and should keep a healthy distance from other women.

Seeing Gu Shaoting’s lack of response, Charlene asked timidly, “Brother Gu...”

“Noted. You should eat too.” Gu Shaoting felt compelled to speak.

“It’s okay. Try to avoid crowded places.” Gu Shaoting replied.

“Will do. When are you coming home? I miss you so much.” It was rare for Shu Pan to act coquettishly. She felt her face turn red after she sent the voice message.

“My return date is pending. I don’t know when the problem will be solved.” Gu Shaoting pulled at his hair and said helplessly. He wished he had wings so he could fly home to his wife and daughter.

“I’m just asking. I’ll take good care of myself. Take your time. I’m sure there’s a way to solve the problem.” Shu Pan said quickly. She didn’t want him to worry just because she asked.

“Alright, I’ll settle the problem as soon as possible so I can come home.” Gu Shaoting replied.

...

John arrived home with Charlene with a gloomy face.

Charlene saw her father’s gloomy expression and guessed that he was unhappy about her.

But she feigned innocence and asked coquettishly, “What’s wrong, dad? You look unhappy.”

“Don’t you know why I’m unhappy?” John said sternly. He had really spoiled her rotten.

“Dad...” Charlene looked at him aggrievedly. In her memory, her father had never spoken to her so harshly.

“Do you like Gu Shaoting?” John didn’t try to hide it anymore and asked Charlene directly. He was really shocked when he saw his daughter acting so submissively to the man she liked today.
