Let’s Divorce As Agreed-Chapter 1132 - 1131 Complaining

Chapter 1132: Chapter 1131 Complaining

“Daddy, what are you thinking about? Hurry up and help me with this puzzle,” Joy shouted, bringing his attention back.

Gu Shaoting absentmindedly worked on the puzzle with her.

“Joy, what did mom say to that Auntie?” Gu Shaoting was still very curious; what could have made Shu Pan so angry?

In his view, it was truly a trivial matter.

“Auntie said that Daddy is Mommy’s hubby, so how come you don’t know where you went?” Joy thought for a bit before responding.

This sentence was what she remembered most clearly.

When Gu Shaoting heard this, his brow furrowed involuntarily—did that comment sound a bit provocative?

What did Secretary Xia mean by that? Since when did she have the right to comment on his marital affairs?

It was utterly baffling.

No wonder Shu Pan was upset; she couldn’t possibly think he had other feelings for Xia Xiaoqiao, could she?

That would be a huge misunderstanding.

After playing with Joy for a while, he was about to go look for Shu Pan when his phone rang.

It was He Ming.

“Ming, are you free? Let’s go out for a drink,” He Ming said as soon as the call connected.

Feeling rather dejected at the moment, Gu Shaoting agreed, and they decided to meet at their usual spot.

They arrived at about the same time.

“What’s the matter, isn’t Xiaomeng about to have a baby soon? Yet, you still have time to come out,” Gu Shaoting teased.

“Don’t get me started; Xiaomeng is maybe suffering from some pre-birth anxiety, feeling uncertain, plus my mom might be stirring up more trouble. I’m caught in the middle, hardly able to breathe,” He Ming started to complain as soon as he saw Gu Shaoting.

“Everyone has their troubles,” Gu Shaoting said, stopping himself from going on.

“What troubles do you have? You have both a son and a daughter, a happy family, a successful career; what more could you want? Could it be you have other ideas? Wanting to have it all?” He Ming joked with a touch of sarcasm.

“Get lost,” Gu Shaoting glared at him, annoyed that he had hit close to the mark.

“So what’s bothering you? You’re living like a godsend of happiness; what’s there to be unsatisfied about?” He Ming couldn’t comprehend it; others maybe, but Gu Shaoting was an exception—his life seemed perfect.

If there were any problems, they must be self-inflicted.

He Ming actually had a point—it was indeed self-inflicted.

“Don’t even mention it, Shu Pan is currently mad at me. Today during Joy’s parent-child event, I was called out by Wang Dali. After the event, Shu Pan went to look for me at the office, I wasn’t there, she saw Secretary Xia, maybe their conversation wasn’t very pleasant, and when she came home, she’s been giving me cold looks ever since,” Gu Shaoting felt extremely aggrieved.

Upon hearing this, He Ming seemed to relish the misfortune a bit, “Brother Ting, I’ve told you more than once to switch to a male secretary. You’ve never taken it to heart. Really, women can be quite sensitive. They don’t show it, but once they notice something off, they’re sure to make a fuss.”

“I thought Shu Pan wouldn’t mind. After all, I’ve always kept things clear with the company,” Gu Shaoting said with some distress.

“She cares because she loves you. If she didn’t love you, she definitely wouldn’t mind other women fluttering around you. You should give her enough sense of security,” He Ming spoke thoughtfully, sighing. Brother Ting was good in many ways, just his EQ could be a bit frustrating.

“But she never mentioned anything before,” Gu Shaoting was still puzzled by the reason.

“Did you have a male secretary before? Why the sudden switch to a female secretary? Such a change is already enough to raise doubts in a woman. If it were Xiaomeng, she’d have dealt with me long ago,” He Ming thought he still had a point.

Gu Shaoting looked bewildered.
