âOkay, Iâll call him.â Mother He called He Ming again.
âMom, Iâm in a meeting. Iâll call you back later.â He Ming hung up after saying that.
âWhy did you lie to Auntie and say that you were in a meeting?â Gu Shaoting saw He Ming, who was sitting on the sofa in his office, lying through his teeth.
âSigh! I donât know who wrote Xiaomengâs matter on a piece of paper and sent it to my mom. Now she has some complaints about Xiaomeng. Iâm still investigating to see who did it.â He Ming gritted his teeth as he spoke. It wasnât easy for their relationship to stabilize, but now this happened.
âIs there such a thing? This is a target.â Gu Shaoting couldnât help but frown.
No one would do such a thing out of boredom.
âYes. Iâve already asked someone to investigate. I donât want to see my empress dowager for the time being before there are any results.â He Ming rubbed his temples. It was giving him a headache.
âIf thereâs anything you need help with, just tell me.â Gu Shaoting could understand He Mingâs feelings. If someone treated Shu Pan like this, he would probably fight the person to the death.
âAlright, thanks.â He Ming opened the door and went out.
Gu Shaoting strolled to the floor-to-ceiling window. He couldnât help but think of Shu Pan again. His heart felt warm.
What was she busy with now?
âKnock, knock.â The knock on the door interrupted Gu Shaotingâs thoughts.
âPlease come in.â Secretary Zhang came in with a few files.
âMr. Gu, these are urgent documents. Please sign them.â Secretary Zhang put the folders down on the desk.
Secretary Zhang was about to turn around and leave when Gu Shaoting stopped him.
âSecretary Zhang, what do you think women like the most?â Gu Shaoting started to ask the love consultant again.
Fortunately, Secretary Zhang was experienced and had done his homework, so he answered easily.
âWomenâs favorite thing should be shopping. The second most important thing is romance. Take her out to do something romantic.â Secretary Zhang answered without hesitation.
Gu Shaoting didnât know what romance was, so he thought of shopping. Shopping was not a stressful thing for him. As long as Shu Pan liked it, he could buy anything.
Secretary Zhang saw that Mr. Gu was deep in thought. He knew that Mr. Gu was already satisfied with what he said.
It wasnât easy to make a living by a bossâ side. He had to be versatile.
After a while, Gu Shaoting picked up a pen and started to read the documents. He wanted to finish it quickly and planned to take Shu Pan out shopping.
Finally, it was time to get off work. Gu Shaoting could finally call Shu Pan because Shu Pan had previously stated that he could not call her at work unless it was an urgent matter.
He now treated Shu Panâs words like an imperial edict.
After fetching Shu Pan, Gu Shaoting said casually, âLetâs go shopping.â
âShopping?â Shu Pan was a little surprised. In her impression, Gu Shaoting didnât like to go out. Whatever he wanted, he would specially send it to his door to choose. Why would he need to go out and squeeze in the crowd?
âYeah! Itâs not bad to go out occasionally.â Gu Shaoting said it very naturally.
Shu Pan nodded although it felt weird to go shopping with him.
Gu Shaoting saw that Shu Pan didnât say anything else. He thought that women indeed liked to go shopping.
Their destination was the pedestrian street. There was a dazzling array of
goods everywhere, as well as all kinds of special snacks.
As long as you can think of it, it was all here.
The most important thing was that this was a shopping area. There were all kinds of high-end and low-end things here.
Shu Pan didnât have anything to buy, but women went shopping because of their mood..
