Let’s Divorce As Agreed-Chapter 1139 - 1138: Give Her a Surprise

Chapter 1139 -1138: Give Her a Surprise

Seeing that Shu Pan was willing to go, Lu Lei was extremely delighted.

Actually, he felt somewhat sorry for Shu Pan, a woman who put aside her family to come on a business trip. Watching her busy herself all day without a break, barely eating anything, he decided to invite her to eat something warm for the stomach now that they had time.

Shu Pan put on a coat and stepped outside, where couples strolled in pairs. Suddenly, she wondered if what she was doing was inappropriate.

However, after glancing at Lu Lei, who looked composed, she thought she might be overthinking it.

Eating a meal with a friend is a perfectly normal thing. What was she thinking?

The casserole congee shop Lu Lei mentioned was indeed very popular and they managed to find a table in a corner only after some effort.

“I can’t believe this small shop is doing such good business,” Shu Pan expressed in surprise.

“Yeah, every time I come here on a business trip, I make sure to eat here at least once. The owner really knows how to cook the congee just right, and the ingredients are all purchased fresh daily,” Lu Lei explained patiently.

“Then I’ll order an extra bowl later,” Shu Pan said happily.

“Good, take your time and enjoy,” Lu Lei responded, his mood lifted by hers.

When the congee arrived, it was as delicious as described. Shu Pan indeed ended up eating two small bowls.

After finishing, she could still taste the congee’s flavor in her mouth.

Later, back at the hotel, because Shu Pan was somewhat full, she couldn’t sleep immediately. She sat on the windowsill of the hotel and impulsively took a photo of the night view with her phone.

With a simple tap, she posted it to her social media along with the caption: “On such a night, having a bowl of warm casserole congee truly warms the heart.”

After posting it, she didn’t think anything was amiss since her social media circle consisted just of close friends and family.

Gu Shaoting had been feeling down lately, and now with Shu Pan not at home, his nights were even more restless.

He was idly scrolling through his phone when suddenly, he came across Shu Pan’s social media update.

It was incredible; Shu Pan rarely posted anything.

He immediately opened it to see the picture and read the caption.

His heart suddenly felt an acidic sting. So her warmth came from a bowl of casserole congee, not from him.

Seeing the geotag under the picture, an idea formed in his mind.

He lost any urge to sleep and quickly started packing his things.

After checking the time, he booked the earliest flight for the next morning.

He planned to surprise her, especially since he had recently done some things to upset her.

I wonder what Shu Pan’s expression will be like?

…..

Early the next morning, Gu Shaoting made arrangements with Auntie Li, telling her that he would be away on a business trip for a couple of days and that Joy and Xiaobao would be her responsibility.

Then, he had his driver take him to the airport.

He had never taken such an early flight before; previously, his business trips would start with flights after 9 AM.

His current feelings were akin to that of a young man in love rushing to see his girlfriend, feeling nervous, anxious, yet highly anticipatory, a complex mixture of emotions indeed.

Sitting on the airplane, he couldn’t calm his mind.

He had memorized the city where Shu Pan was staying and the hotel she was in.

Upon landing, he immediately took a taxi to the hotel.

He arrived at the hotel around 9 AM.

Even though he hadn’t slept well all night, he seemed very excited.

Thinking about soon seeing Shu Pan, will she be surprised? She probably would not expect him to put aside his work to come to see her specifically.
