Let’s Divorce As Agreed-Chapter 1135 - 1134 Business Trip
Chapter 1135: Chapter 1134 Business Trip
Soon it was the day Shu Pan had to leave on her business trip. In the past few days, Gu Shaoting had been looking for various reasons to talk to her, but she had been acting indifferent.
That morning, Shu Pan came out pushing the suitcase she had packed the night before. Joy and Xiaobao saw her and were reluctant to let her go, but knowing their mother was going to work, they behaved very sensibly and promised they would be well-behaved and wait for her to return.
This was the first time Shu Pan would be separated from them, and she felt especially reluctant, but sometimes one has to learn to let go and allow them to grow on their own.
After comforting the children, Shu Pan took them to school before heading to the company to meet with her boss.
The delegation for this business trip included CEO Lu Lei, the secretary, and Shu Pan.
Just after Shu Pan had left, Gu Shaoting got up. He had planned to drive her to the company, but since she had to go, he could only support her and not hold her back.
However, when he came to the living room and saw the silent emptiness with no one around, his heart suddenly felt sour.
“Sir, good morning, you’re up. Come and have breakfast quickly,” Auntie Li called out as she came in from the yard upon seeing him.
Seeing Gu Shaoting’s gloomy expression, Auntie Li didn’t know what to say, understanding that living under the same roof allowed her to sense that recently there had been tension between Sir and Madam, with Madam no longer smiling as cheerfully as before.
Auntie Li was actually somewhat worried but felt helpless; issues between husband and wife were not something outsiders could meddle in.
These past few days, she had intentionally spoken well of Gu Shaoting in front of Madam, indicating that he was indeed tired from managing such a large company and that spouses should be understanding of each other.
But Madam just smiled when she heard this and said nothing, so Auntie Li didn’t know what else to say.
Now, seeing Gu Shaoting standing there with a stern face, he still looked rather intimidating.
“Has Madam left?” Gu Shaoting, fully aware of the fact, couldn’t help but ask.
What was going on with Panpan? Hadn’t he told her that he would drive her this morning? Why hadn’t she woken him up?
“Yes, Sir, Madam just left. The driver took her to drop the children at kindergarten and then to the company. Perhaps she thought you were tired. After all, you’re so busy with the company, and it’s rare for you to sleep so soundly, so she didn’t wake you,” Auntie Li consoled him, not wanting to see him look so dejected.
In fact, the real reason might be that Madam simply didn’t want Sir to take her to work. Everything seemed usual when she got up, and there was nothing unusual about her, so it was hard to guess what she was thinking.
Gu Shaoting gave a bitter smile upon hearing Auntie Li’s words. He was well aware of the reality.
Perhaps she was now avoiding him at all costs.
How did things come to this between them?
Gu Shaoting himself couldn’t figure it out.
The matter with Xia Xiaoqiao was just the spark; perhaps their problems had been festering for a long time.
“It’s okay, Auntie Li, you go ahead with your work. Oh, and for the next few days, I’ll be picking up the children, so there’s no need for you to go,” Gu Shaoting felt that with Shu Pan not at home, he needed to step up, at the very least, to care for the children. With mother not around, at least father should be there.
“Of course, Sir. If you can’t make it, just let me know, and I’ll pick them up,” Auntie Li replied, feeling reassured to see him so concerned about the children.
At least when Madam comes back, she could praise Sir for caring for them.
Gu Shaoting let out a soft sigh. It seemed that this time Shu Pan was quite upset, and he had to put in more effort.
