Chapter 683: The Reaction
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Gu Shaoting was very puzzled. Why didn’t Shu Pan feel anything at all?
He looked at Shu Pan silently from the side. He even deliberately stayed for so long, but Shu Pan seemed indifferent.
She only asked him a question indifferently and then turned to sleep again. Gu Shaoting was tremendously depressed. Why was it different from what he had imagined?
Shouldn’t Shu Pan be jealous when she smelled the perfume? And then denounce him?
Why did she react in such a way? As if nothing had happened?
Seeing Shu Pan had gone back to sleep, Gu Shaoting didn’t want to disturb her. He took a set of pajamas and walked into the bathroom.
To be honest, he was choked by the perfume on his body and wanted to wash it off quickly.
Just as Gu Shaoting walked into the bathroom, Shu Pan slowly opened her eyes. Due to her pregnancy, she felt sleepy easily, but now she couldn’t fall asleep at all.
She felt like she had been exhausted all day, completely drained of energy, yet she was still wide awake. She was disturbed by those perfume scents, unable to feel even the slightest drowsiness.
She opened her eyes when she heard the sound and knew that Gu Shaoting had entered the bathroom. She didn’t know how to face him. She felt a lump of cotton stuffed in her heart, making her very uncomfortable.
She lay for a while, gradually becoming more sober. Then, she quietly lifted the blanket and got out of bed. Feeling tired, she nearly stumbled to the floor, but she managed to hold onto the bed and sat for a moment before she stood up and walked. As she noticed some clothes Gu Shaotinge had just taken off lying on the floor, she bent down to pick them up, but as she did, a strong scent of perfume assaulted her nostrils.
Shu Pan almost vomited. She held it in and put his clothes into the laundry basket. It was the same jacket he used when leaving in the morning, except it was stained with a perfume pungent and a faint lipstick color.
Shu Pan’s eyes instantly dimmed. She knew very well how this was left behind.
He had attended social gatherings before, but he had always kept himself clean.
Was it because she was angry with him? Or was it because of something else? She was also a little uncertain.
After a while, she heard some movement inside and knew he was about to come out. She quickly returned to the bed and lay in her original position as if she did not get up.
Gu Shaoting came out of the shower. He walked to the bed and saw Shu Pan was sleeping soundly and breathing steadily. He felt inexplicably puzzled.
He only came back in the middle of the night with his body filled with perfume scent and alcohol after he went out to socialize. Why did she take it as if nothing had happened?
It wasn’t that she couldn’t smell it, but she didn’t care anymore. This realization deeply stirred Gu Shaoting.
Was this how things were between them now?
The more Gu Shaoting thought about it, the angrier he was. He pulled open the blanket away and lay beside Shu Pan.
They had been sleeping separately recently, but he suddenly didn’t want to now. He felt that Shu Pan was becoming less and less concerned about him.
After lying on the bed, he reached out and pulled Shu Pan into his arms. Shu Pan had long been awake. She was a little resistant and unwilling to lie in his arms. When she thought about what he had done tonight, Shu Pan felt a strong sense of repulsion deep within her.
However, Gu Shaoting had more strength. He hugged her tightly, and Shu Pan could only give up resisting. A strong sense of sleepiness swept over her, and soon Shu Pan fell asleep in his arms.
At this moment, Gu Shaoting opened his eyes and frowned. He could clearly feel her resistance just now. Was this how things had turned out between them?
Was she not even willing to let him hug her?
That night, Gu Shaoting didn’t sleep the entire night.
