“I understand. Please don’t be angry. I’ll handle it,” Gu Shaoting quickly responded.
The next day, Zhou brought news to Tong Fei, confirming her suspicions. Gu Shaoting had been spending most of his free time at Shu Pan’s place, officially to visit his daughter, but who knew what was going on behind the scenes?
Tong Fei’s heart turned as cold as ice when she learned of this development. She Imew Gu Shaoting had a different kind of affection for Shu Pan. They had been together for so long but had never fully committed to each other, always stopping short when things got serious.
She had been bothered by this for a long time, and now, with Shu Pan reentering his life, she was worried they might rekindle their relationship. Tong Fei couldn’t control Gu Shaoting’s actions, but she could reach out to Shu
Pan.
Around noon, Tong Fei called Shu Pan. Shu Pan didn’t pick up initially, but Tong Fei persisted and kept calling.
The last time, Shu Pan finally answered. Before she could speak, the other party did, “Shu Pan, let’s meet.”
Shu Pan hesitated momentarily, unsure of the caller’s identity. Just as she was contemplating, the voice continued, “I’m Tong Fei, let’s meet.”
The commanding tone made Shu Pan uncomfortable. She initially intended to hang up but reconsidered when Tong Fei added, “If you don’t meet, I will personally come to your workplace.”
Fearing that her presence might cause trouble, Shu Pan agreed to meet Tong Fei at a designated time to find out what she wanted.
Tong Fei still exuded a strong aura, no matter when.
“Miss Tong, I don’t know what you want to discuss. Do we have to meet?” Shu Pan’s tone was cold, although deep inside, she couldn’t help but wonder why she seemed to attract trouble lately.
“Miss Shu, I thought someone as clever as you would already know why I’m looking for you,” Tong Fei responded, her words laced with sarcasm and an air of arrogance, causing bystanders to raise an eyebrow.
“Miss Tong, if you have something to say, please be straightforward. I don’t understand your cryptic messages,” Shu Pan remarked, genuinely thinking of herself as quite patient.
“Miss Shu, I’m aware that you and Shaoting have a daughter. If I marry him, I will treat her as my own. I hope you won’t misunderstand Shaoting’s intentions. His frequent visits to your house are for the sake of the child,” Tong Fei said, displaying a sense of magnanimity. She quickly changed the subject, “I hope you don’t misconstrue Shaoting’s actions.”
Shu Pan stared at her, feeling like she hadn’t fully grasped what Tong Fei meant.
“Miss Shu, you don’t have to worry about my daughter. The sooner you marry Mr. Gu, the better. I wish you two a future with many children,” Shu Pan said, thinking that Tong Fei must be out of her mind. What was she thinking?
“Miss Shu, you’re better off not using the child as an excuse to cling to Shaoting,” Tong Fei bluntly stated her true intentions today.
“Miss Shu, if you’re so concerned, you should tie down Mr. Gu yourself. In fact, he’s been frequently visiting my house, and I find it quite troubling,” Shu Pan said, sounding casual.
“Don’t think you’re so triumphant just because you have a daughter. Shaoting treats you well because of your daughter,” Tong Fei remarked, feeling that Shu Pan had become a bit too self-assured, and she wondered where this confidence came from.
“Shu Pan, I’m warning you again, don’t hope for anything with Shaoting. Give up on that thought sooner rather than later, or bear the consequences,” Tong Fei said fiercely, her beautiful face appearing somewhat fierce. Shu Pan was truly at a loss, wondering why all of this was on her..
