Let's Divorce As Agreed

Recently, Gu Shaoting had been inexplicably in a good mood. Knowing that Charlene and Qin Zhen in France were facing constant troubles, he finally wore a satisfied smile. This was the outcome he desired.

That’s just the way he was. If others didn’t offend him, he wouldn’t offend others.

Initially, he had plans to retaliate against Tong Fei, but later he found out that there was no need for his intervention.

According to reports from a private detective, they were originally planning to secretly photograph Tong Fei on a clandestine date with a married man. However, during their surveillance, they witnessed the man’s wife confronting Tong Fei and physically assaulting her without mercy. Tong Fei, despite her height, was no match for the woman, who was twice her size. The man stood by, too intimidated to intervene.

Tong Fei’s misfortune lay in her choice of partner—a man who was afraid of his wife. She had gotten involved with him because of his wealth, believing his promises that he would divorce his wife and marry her.

Although Tong Fei was no longer young, her unsatisfactory life made her long for affection. She fell for the man’s sweet talk, something she never would have entertained before.

A middle-aged man like him, how could she have taken him seriously in the past?

But now? She truly believed he was her other half, hoping for nothing more than a stable life from him.

Little did she know, it was his wife’s family’s support that had propelled him to where he was today. He was submissive to his wife at home, but with ulterior motives, he secretly communicated with Tong Fei.

There were no secrets that could be kept forever. Their rendezvous was discovered, word reached the ears of the wife, and that’s how the private detective witnessed the scene.

It was said that Tong Fei was dragged by her hair by the wife, leaving her in a pitiable state. Because it happened in public, and Tong Fei was somewhat known, the incident made it to the newspapers the same day. Tong Fei was now like a mouse in the street, having to hide whenever she went out.

Truly, they had brought this upon themselves.

The wicked would be punished by the wicked.

When Gu Shaoting heard the news, he was very calm. It was as expected. Considering that Tong Fei was a nearly washed-up model trying to survive in a big city, it wasn’t surprising she would go through such experiences. Given her history of using any means necessary to achieve her goals, this was no different.

Since she had received the punishment she deserved, he decided not to push things further.

…

Shu Pan had just finished her bath and was getting dressed to check on Joy when Gu Shaoting suddenly entered the room. Clearly not expecting this, Gu Shaoting paused with his fingers still on the doorknob.

Seeing him, Shu Pan quickly buttoned up her clothes, then muttered in a mix of embarrassment and annoyance, “Why didn’t you knock?”

Her tone was full of reproach.

Gu Shaoting raised an eyebrow nonchalantly. “Do I need to knock to enter my own room?”

He spoke as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

Shu Pan replied, exasperated, “Of course you do. It’s a matter of politeness. We need to set a good example for the baby.”

Gu Shaoting realized he particularly enjoyed seeing her in this lecturing mode. She looked so earnest, a mix of sincerity and cuteness.

He walked up to Shu Pan, inhaling the fresh, clean scent of her post-bath fragrance, and couldn’t resist pulling her into a hug.

Shu Pan lightly struggled, “Let go, I need to check on Joy and read her a story…”

The implication was clear. She didn’t have time for him right now.
