Shu Pan had no choice but to call her boss to ask for leave. Her director quickly agreed and granted her a few days of leave.
Her bossâ tone was unusually respectful.
Shu Pan knew that this would happen after her relationship with Gu Shaoting went public, but she couldnât help but feel a little disappointed. She reckoned that everyone would treat her differently after the incident.
Shu Pan didnât tell Ye Xiaomeng about the incident; she didnât want Ye Xiaomeng to worry about her. Given Xiaomengâs personality, she would be very angry too.
Xiaomeng had enough worries of her own, so Shu Pan didnât want to burden her.
Despite Shu Panâs non -disclosure, He Ming told Ye Xiaomeng what happened.
As soon as Xiaomeng heard the news, she called Shu Pan. âGirl, am I still your bestie or not? Why didnât you tell me right away when this thing happened? I so want to teach that b*tch a lesson.â As Shu Pan expected, Xiaomeng was very angry.
âXiaomeng, Iâm fine now. Donât get too worked up. Besides, I slapped her first, so I didnât lose out.â Shu Pan joked to appease Ye Xiaomeng.
âThat really makes me look at you in a new light.â Ye Xiaomeng was very surprised. It was no surprise if she was the one who slapped someone first but this was unheard of for Shu Pan.
Shu Pan was known for her good temper. She usually endured being bullied. That woman must have gone overboard this time and pushed her over the edge.
âSo, you shouldnât worry.â Shu Pan sighed. If MO Lan hadnât gone too far, she wouldnât have started a fight.
âWell done. You should stand up for yourself and not let others bully you.â Ye Xiaomeng could finally relax.
âXiaomeng, how are you and He Ming?â Shu Pan had been so busy lately that she had forgotten to call Xiaomeng to ask about her situation with He Ming.
âSame old, same old. How else can we be?â Ye Xiaomeng was helpless when the matter was brought up.
âAs long as He Ming still feels the same way about you.â Shu Pan could only comfort her with this. After all, the person who would spend the rest of his life with Xiaomeng was He Ming.
âHe Mingâs attitude hasnât changed. After all, he knew about my history but his mother doesnât understand. The last time we visited his parents, she was still very unhappy.â Ye Xiaomeng didnât feel good either but things had already happened and she couldnât turn back the clock.
âGive her more time. After all, old people arenât that open-minded. Itâs not something they would accept easily.â Shu Pan hated the person who investigated Xiaomeng to the bone. There were really all kinds of people in this world.
The truth was, Mrs. He was still unyielding in her opinion of Xiaomeng. He Ming visited his parents alone the day before yesterday. His expression was glum when he got home, probably because he tried to reason with his mother again.
He Ming had already found out that Hu Shanshan was behind the whole thing. One could only imagine how furious he was when he found out. He even swore that he would teach her a lesson someday.
That day arrived soon.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
He Ming had already hired someone to tail Hu Shanshan, but she had been sticking to her routine, so he hadnât been able to find an opportunity to get back at her.
However, the person who had been tailing Hu Shanshan just called and reported that Hu Shanshan called a friend and asked her out to Guilanfang tonight.
He Ming pondered over the information. It was Hu Shanshanâs business to like to party and drink. Since she liked to cause trouble for others, he would cause trouble for her too.
If Hu Shanshan hadnât gone after Xiaomeng, he would have let her off. But her antics had seriously jeopardized their relationship. He would never forgive her.
He thought that he had always been nice to Hu Shanshan. He even helped her without hesitation the last time she was drunk.
She wouldnât be so lucky this time..
