“Brother Ting, you can’t rush these things. It’s not a problem that can be solved just because you’re anxious.” He Ming comforted Gu Shaoting.
“Why don’t you find a chance to tell Shu Pan that you’ve recovered your memory and remembered the past? Wouldn’t it be easier to settle this if you have a daughter?” He Ming suddenly remembered this point.
Gu Shaoting was stunned for a moment before he disagreed, ‘Will she compromise? But I don’t want to force her.”
He hoped that Shu Pan would get back together with him willingly and wholeheartedly.
Shu Pan just wasn’t willing yet.
“Then you’ll have to win her over slowly.” He Ming also didn’t know what to say. When he put in a good word for Gu Shaoting after their dinner together the other night, Xiaomeng made him sleep on the sofa that night.
Ye Xiaomeng had been there for Shu Pan during her most difficult time. She knew Shu Pan’s pain and suffering.
Gu Shaoting was a little lost in thought as he emptied his glass.
He Ming could only pat him on the shoulder and encourage him to persevere.
At six o’clock in the evening, He Ming eagerly went to pick Ye Xiaomeng up.
He took the trouble to dress up, but he was a little nervous when waiting for Xiaomeng.
When Xiaomeng came out of her building, she was a sight to behold.
She was in a color block, short black and white dress with a V-neck. As the neckline was low, one could see her cleavage and a little beyond. Her red pointy high heels were very eye-catching, just like her red lips.
He saw her even more clearly as she got closer, and he was stunned.
She was really God’s favorite child with her exquisite makeup, almond-shaped eyes, dainty nose, fair skin, and long, slender legs.
A flush of warmth swept through He Ming’s skin, and it took him a lot of effort to suppress the desire in his heart.
Ye Xiaomeng suddenly felt a little shy when she saw He Ming staring at her unblinkingly.
She had specially dressed up today. She rarely dressed so sexily, but it was his birthday today, so she wanted to give him a surprise.
She had obviously succeeded.
Ye Xiaomeng felt that something was wrong the moment she got into the car. Why was there such a strong perfume smell in the car?
She would never use such a disgustingly sweet perfume.
She could not help but frown.
He Ming saw the disgust on her face and asked nervously, “Mengmeng, what’s wrong?”
“Don’t you smell the overpowering perfume in the car?” Ye Xiaomeng couldn’t help but complain.
“Oh, oh, the car smelled strange today, so I sprayed some perfume. Does it smell bad? Let me lower the window to let in some fresh air.” He Ming was furious deep down; the smell of that damn perfume still hadn’t dissipated after sucn a long ume.
When Ye Xiaomeng saw his panicky explanation, she didn’t even dare to look him in the eye because she knew that he was lying.
“Are you sure?” Ye Xiaomeng looked at him and asked casually.
“Alas, I knew I couldn’t hide anything from you. My mother asked me to go home for longevity noodles at noon. Coincidentally, her friend’s daughter was there too, and my mother asked me to give her a ride.” He Ming told Ye Xiaomeng everything. He figured that his punishment would be less severe if he came clean.
Ye Xiaomeng suddenly felt a little upset. Why was it his mother’s friend’s daughter again?
“Your ‘sister’ again?” Ye Xiaomeng asked.
“Yes. I rejected her when she asked me for a ride. Unfortunately, I couldn’t disobey my empress dowager.” He Ming was also helpless.
He finally understood now: Hu Shanshan was his jinx.
She was sent here to make life difficult for him. Nothing good would happen as long as she was involved.
He would treat her like the plague from now on and stay as far away as possible..
