When Shu Pan arrived at the intersection, Gu Shaoting’s car also arrived.
Joy was strapped into a child car seat in the back.
Gu Shaoting was quite meticulous about this matter. Because he often picked Joy up without Shu Pan and Joy always sat in the back alone, he put in a car seat for her and would drive this car whenever he needed to pick her up.
“Mommy, get in the car.” Joy urged Shu Pan.
Shu Pan felt a little troubled. Why was this father and daughter so alike?
There was a time when Joy liked Wen Chi very much, but she wasn’t as clingy.
Shu Pan didn’t know if it was because Gu Shaoting picked Joy up so much recently that she had been Uncle Gu this and Uncle Gu that recently.
Shu Pan felt conflicted now. She also wished for Joy to have a complete family with motherly as well as fatherly love.
But was it proper to announce Joy’s status given the current situation between her and Gu Shaoting?
Gu Shaoting helped Shu Pan open the door to the front passenger seat. After Shu Pan got in the car, she asked Joy about her day at the kindergarten.
Gu Shaoting drove as he listened to the sweet conversation between mother and daughter. It felt wonderful.
As it was rush hour, traffic was heavy. By the time they arrived at Gathered Dragon, it was already past seven o’clock.
Gu Shaoting parked the car and held Joy’s hand as they walked in. After a quick enquiry, a waiter led them to He Ming’s private room.
“Mr. He has arrived. This way, please.”
Shu Pan walked in first when the door was pushed opened. She couldn’t believe her eyes when she saw Ye Xiaomeng.
She was planning to say hi to He Ming before she went to find Xiaomeng at the same restaurant but there she was…
“Girl, do you have super powers or something? I just arrived and was about to text you the room number.” Ye Xiaomeng was also surprised.
“Are they here?” He Ming came out of the bathroom in the private room.
“He Ming, why are you here?” Shu Pan got another shock.
“You know each other?” Ye Xiaomeng asked in confusion. It was indeed a small world.
“He is Gu Shaoting’s childhood friend.” Shu Pan replied helplessly. What a coincidence.
“What? That b*stard?” Ye Xiaomeng suddenly raised her voice.
“What b*stard?” Gu Shaoting heard Ye Xiaomeng’s last comment as he walked in with Joy.
Ye Xiaomeng’s eyes were orbs of fury when she saw him. He Ming noticed it and quickly tugged at her arm asking her to calm down.
“Godmother.” Joy saw Xiaomeng and ran over excitedly.
“Joy, come and let Godmother look at you. Have you grown into a piglet?” Ye Xiaomeng didn’t scold Gu Shaoting for the time being when she saw Joy.
“I’m not a piglet, I’m a little beauty.” Joy said smugly.
After everyone sat down, Gu Shaoting felt He Ming’s girlfriend’s hostility towards him.
Actually, Gu Shaoting couldn’t be blamed for that. During their three years of marriage, he knew very little about Shu Pan’s friends. Even her best friend, Ye Xiaomeng, he had only met twice briefly.
He didn’t remember Ye Xiaomeng well so he couldn’t understand why she was giving him a hard time now.
He Ming took good care of Ye Xiaomeng throughout the meal.
Shu Pan’s eyes stung a little when she saw them. Her best friend had finally met the right man for her.
Xiaomeng deserved all the happiness she could get!
Shu Pan no longer had any lofty hopes about her own happiness. She was already very contented with Joy.
Gu Shaoting also didn’t neglect the mother and daughter throughout the meal. He kept filling their plates with delicious food.
Ye Xiaomeng was a little surprised to see Gu Shaoting’s actions tonight and wondered why he only did these things now…
She must make sure that Shu Pan wouldn’t forgive him so easily. She felt like crying whenever she thought about how her best friend had
suffered in recent years..
