âCongratulations for realizing that only now.â He Ming smiled bitterly and pitied the both of them for pursuing women who were difficult to get⦠âWhat about you? What about your love interest?â Gu Shaoting asked.
âStill pursuing.â He Ming took a sip of his drink.
âHandsome, buy us a drink.â Two sexy girls walked towards them. They were in sexy, short tube dresses that wrapped tightly around their voluptuous figures, their long legs visibly tempting.
âGet lost.â Gu Shaoting spat coldly, dropping the temperature around him by a few degrees.
He Ming also frowned because he wouldnât have let go of such stunners in the past. But since he met Xiaomeng, he had lost interest in such beauties.
The two beautiful women had been looking around the bar for a long time. These two men were the most attractive ones in the entire place. However, when they saw their cold expressions, they quickly left to find their next targets.
The two men didnât say anything. They raised their glasses and did a few bottoms up before they went home.
Joy finally fell asleep. After Shu Pan finished her chores around the house, she also went to bed.
The night was quiet as moonlight shone through the curtains into her room. But Shu Panâs heart wasnât quiet at all. Tong Feiâs words kept echoing in her mind.
The more Shu Pan thought about Tong Fei said, the angrier she got. How could Tong Fei do those things?
In Shu Panâs mind, Tong Fei was sick, and seriously sick to not care about othersâ lives just to get Gu Shaoting.
But she wasnât afraid. As a mother, she had to be tough. If Tong Fei did something outrageous again, she would definitely fight back.
She slowly fell asleep as she pondered.
The next day, Shu Pan made breakfast: sweet potato congee with side dishes, and prepared eggs and milk for Joy.
When everything was ready, she realized that Joy had not woken up as usual.
Shu Pan was a little puzzled. Was the little girl trying to sleep in again?
Shu Pan walked into Joyâs bedroom and saw her sleeping soundly wrapped in her little blanket.
She looked like a pink cotton ball on her bed. âJoy, you need to get up or youâre going to be late.â
Shu Pan walked over and called out softly, but Joy just grunted twice without saying a word.
âJoyâ¦â Shu Pan lifted the blanket and saw Joy all curled up. She didnât look right, especially her little face, which was red.
Shu Panâs heart was in her mouth. Oh no, she couldnât have fallen ill, right? She quickly reached out to touch Joyâs forehead. It was burning hot.
âJoy, Joy, wake upâ¦â Shu Pan continued to call her.
âMommy, I⦠Feel sick.â Joy opened her eyes and looked at Shu Pan before closing them again
Shu Pan knew right away that Joy had a fever, and a high fever. She hurriedly took out Joyâs clothes, changed her and then packed her things. She carried Joy and was about to go to the hospital when Gu Shaoting called.
It had become a habit for him to fetch them downstairs and send them to school and work if they hadnât left the house.
He used to call her too late, after they had left the house, so he brought forward his morning calls.
âPanpan, have you left home?â Gu Shaotingâs cold and magnetic voice sounded.
âJoy has a high fever.â Shu Pan panicked. When she saw the caller ID, it was as if she had seen a life-saver.
âWhat? Fever? Iâll be right there. Wait for me downstairs.â Gu Shaoting hung up the phone and quickly went to pick them up.
Not long after Shu Pan arrived downstairs with Joy, Gu Shaoting also arrived.
He quickly got out of the car and carried Joy to the back seat. Shu Pan followed closely behind..
