He Ming looked at Gu Shaoting’s expression, which seemed a mix of annoyance and embarrassment, and he had a vague feeling that something was amiss.

“Where did you run into her?” Gu Shaoting asked further.

“On the roadside…” He Ming deliberately tried to irritate him. It was rare for Gu Shaoting to ask for a favor.

Gu Shaoting, with a stoic expression, gave him the address.

Gu Shaoting made a mental note of the address.

Shu Pan looked at Ye Xiaomeng with some surprise. It was a miracle to see her so early in the morning at her place.

“What’s going on? Why did you come over so early?” Shu Pan looked puzzled, seeing Ye Xiaomeng in crumpled clothes.

“Just avoiding bad luck,” Ye Xiaomeng’s words left Shu Pan puzzled.

“Where did you and Joy go so early?” Ye Xiaomeng quickly changed the subject, afraid that Shu Pan might continue to ask about her own situation.

“We went out to buy breakfast. Joy wanted to have some pancakes. Why don’t you join us?” Shu Pan turned to the kitchen to get some utensils.

“Joy, can you share some pancakes with your godmother?” Ye Xiaomeng pretended to be pitiful and asked Joy.

“Sure, Joy will share with godmother,” Joy generously agreed.

“Thank you, sweetheart. Godmother will take you out for a big meal this weekend,” Ye Xiaomeng kissed Joy and made the promise.

“Don’t spoil her,” Shu Pan teased when she heard that.

“It’s okay, I want to spoil little Princess Joy,” Ye Xiaomeng had some regrets in her heart. She wanted to pamper Joy to the fullest.

Suddenly, she remembered something and hastily said goodbye to Shu Pan.

Then she quickly found the nearest pharmacy and bought an emergency contraceptive pill. Without water, she swallowed it, feeling the bitterness of the pill from her mouth to her throat, making her almost want to vomit.

But she had learned from her experience and knew she wouldn’t make the same mistake again.

He Ming had been trying to contact Ye Xiaomeng for the past few days, but his calls were always rejected, and his messages went unanswered.

He Ming was getting frustrated, pacing back and forth in Gu Shaoting’s office.

“Can you stop? You’re making my head spin,” Gu Shaoting rubbed his forehead. He felt that He Ming had been acting like a restless animal lately, a bit manic. “No, I get even more frustrated when I stop,” He Ming refused directly.

“What’s going on? Where’s your forest now?” Gu Shaoting teased.

“I’ve been interested in a girl lately, but she won’t answer my calls,” He Ming was getting irritated.

“You know where she lives, right? Wait for her like a patient hunter,” Gu Shaoting suggested. He was an impartial observer in this matter.

“Right, that’s a good idea. It’s the weekend tomorrow, she doesn’t have to work. I’ll wait downstairs in her building. I don’t believe she won’t leave the house,” He Ming thought this was a brilliant plan.

“Finally, I won’t have to deal with you hovering around me,” Gu Shaoting sighed in relief.

But what about his own problems? Since he had found out where Shu Pan lived, he had been hesitating. He wanted to see her, but what would he say to her? And Tong Fei was clinging to him.

He felt like he was sick. All he could think of now was Shu Pan. He had no interest in that aspect with Tong Fei, no matter how much she tried to seduce him. He felt a strong aversion inside.

The more he thought about it, the more depressed he became…

With Gu Shaoting’s guidance, He Ming got up the next day and drove to Shu Pan’s building.

He first tried calling Ye Xiaomeng, but as usual, there was no answer.

He was at a loss, so he decided to wait downstairs and try his luck.

In theory, there were plenty of young and beautiful women out there, but that one night had left a deep impression on him. Ye Xiaomeng had a unique charm that just happened to suit his taste perfectly. He could never win her..
