Chapter 440 - 440: Unable to Calm Down

Today, in the office, she endured many strange glances—some sympathetic, some gloating, some mocking…

Perhaps many were seeing her as a joke, laughing at her audacity to think she could hold onto the CEO with any charm.

As she left the office at the end of the day, Shu Pan sent a message to Gu Shaoting, asking him to pick up Joy for her as she had something to attend to and wouldn’t be able to make it.

After that, she silenced her phone, dropped it into her bag, and walked out of the company doors alone.

They hadnt even been back together for two months, and he had already been involved with another woman. How could she bear this?

Throughout the day in the office, she had endured, even though she was in agony inside. She maintained a facade of composure, unwilling to show her weakness to others.

But now, with no one else around, she dared to let down her mask.

This was the perfect opportunity for her to clear her mind and contemplate whether it was worth maintaining this relationship with Gu Shaoting.

Her mind was in turmoil.

As people bustled past her on the street, each with a clear destination in mind, she alone wandered aimlessly, unsure of where to go.

After walking around for a while, she grew tired and found a place to sit down.

Her hand instinctively reached for her phone, and she saw a dozen missed calls, all from Gu Shaoting.

Her heart stirred again—what did he mean by this? It seemed like he was very concerned about her.

Thinking of today’s entertainment news, Shu Pan felt a surge of anger and frustration, casually tossing her phone back into her bag.

Gu Shaoting was indeed frantic.

Just before leaving work, he received a message from Shu Pan, but he didn’t pay much attention, assuming she had something to do. He went ahead and picked up Joy.

Afterward, he tried calling her, wanting to ask where she was and offered to pick her up himself. But there was no answer. He called again and again, realizing her phone must have been blowing up with notifications, yet still, there was no response.

Gu Shaoting was extremely anxious, worrying if Shu Pan had encountered some trouble. Why else wouldn’t she answer the phone?

Joy seemed to sense her daddy’s anxiety and obediently played on the side.

Shu Pan walked around aimlessly, knowing that Gu Shaoting would take good care of Joy, so she wasn’t worried.

As she strolled, her stomach growled, and she spotted the famous snack street ahead. She walked over, ordered some of her favorite snacks, and enjoyed them thoroughly.

Her emptiness gradually filled with the delicious food, and she felt some energy returning.

Suddenly, she had an epiphany. There was nothing to worry about. If she could be with Gu Shaoting, then great. If not, they would part ways.

Hadn’t she been through this before? At worst, things would go back to how they were. Why make herself miserable? With that realization, her heart lightened.

As the night grew darker, she hoisted her bag and headed home.

Downstairs, she noticed the lights on their floor, and her heart twinged. Normally, she would eagerly return home, but now, she was somewhat afraid to face Gu Shaoting.

As she reached for her keys, Gu Shaoting had already opened the door.

“Panpan, where did you go? I called you so many times, but you didn’t answer,” Gu Shaoting said, relief evident in his voice as he saw Shu Pan return.

“I had plans with a colleague and went out for a walk,” Shu Pan lied, her tone neutral, masking her true emotions.

“Have you eaten?” Gu Shaoting asked with concern, noticing her subdued mood..
