Song Can pursed her lips and kept quiet. She couldn’t possibly say that she simply didn’t like Shu Pan…
“Let’s not talk about her anymore. Such a killjoy.” Song Can did not want to dwell on the same topic anymore.
“Alright, as long as it makes the birthday girl happy.” Song Can’s friend smiled helplessly.
Shu Pan finally didn’t feel hungry after eating some food.
She looked around but still couldn’t find Gu Shaoting. She didn’t know anyone else here and she felt quite bored.
She didn’t know that Gu Shaoting was being pestered by Charlene.
Gu Shaoting helped Charlene into the guest room so she could rest there. Charlene was almost fully in his arms when they arrived. Gu Shaoting tried to push her away but to no avail.
She was clinging on to him like an octopus.
Gu Shaoting saw that she seemed drunk, so he helped her sit on the bed in the guest room before he turned to leave. He figured he would be a nice guy through and through and fetch her a glass of water.
Little did he expect Charlene to stand up and hug him tightly from behind as he turned to leave.
Gu Shaoting was shocked by Charlene’s sudden action. He was stunned for a moment before he extracted himself from her embrace.
“Charlene, let go, you’ve gone too far.” Gu Shaoting turned around and said to her seriously.
“Brother Gu, I like you. I love you.” Charlene could finally say what she wanted to say out loud.
Gu Shaoting was stunned. It never occurred to him that Charlene had feelings for him. He had always treated her as a younger sister.
“Charlene, I’ve always treated you as my sister. You know that I’m already married, right? You’re still young and you’re mistaking admiration as love.” Gu Shaoting sighed in his heart. How did he get himself in such a fix?
“Brother Gu, do you know that I fell for you since the first time we met in France?” Charlene said hurriedly. She was very sure that she loved Gu Shaoting, not admired him as he said.
“Charlene, whether admiration or love, I’m grateful for your attention but the person I love is my wife.” Gu Shaoting said solemnly.
“Brother Gu, what’s so good about her? She looks average, comes from an ordinary family and isn’t outstanding in anyway. She’s of no help to you at all.” Charlene said emotionally. She was willing to give up if Shu Pan was better than her. But this woman who was inferior to her in every aspect had stolen her Brother Gu’s heart.
She simply couldn’t accept it. Why her? Just because she bore her Brother Gu a daughter? She could also bear him children.
“Charlene, you are still young and you don’t understand love. You don’t need any reason to love someone. I love her therefore I accept her shortcomings. You will meet your Mr. Right too someday.” Gu Shaoting said earnestly.
“Brother Gu, but I really love you.” Charlene said repeatedly.
She looked up and suddenly saw a figure flash past the door. She thought for a moment. Wasn’t that dress Shu Pan’s? She probably got impatient and came to find Gu Shaoting.
“Charlene, have a good rest. I’ve always treated you as a younger sister and I’ll continue to do so. I’m going to go now.” Gu Shaoting didn’t want to argue with her anymore and decided to leave.
Shu Pan was probably anxious now because she couldn’t find him.
Charlene suddenly had an idea and asked Gu Shaoting, “Brother Gu, I’m going back to France soon. Can you give me a hug? The brother-sister kind of hug?”
Gu Shaoting didn’t think much of it. Charlene’s request wasn’t unreasonable, so he gave her a quick farewell hug.
At this moment, the guest room door was suddenly pushed open, and Shu Pan was standing outside.
