Let's Divorce As Agreed

Chapter 1118: Chapter 1117: How Is It You?

Gu Shaoting leaned against the hospital bed and watched as Shu Pan packed her things.

From his angle, he could see her profile—delicate and fair-skinned, truly captivating.

Gu Shaoting thought to himself that no matter what, she was always so enchanting.

That’s why he found her jealous behavior rather amusing; she was too insecure.

How could he possibly be interested in another woman? No one could compare to her.

However, because he was generally reserved with his emotions, he seldom expressed them openly.

Shu Pan noticed he was staring at her continuously, his gaze intense, forcing her to turn her head away.

“Is there something wrong?” Shu Pan asked.

“Can’t I look at you if there’s nothing wrong? By the way, when did the doctor say I can be discharged? I miss Joy and Xiaobao.” Gu Shaoting said somewhat sulkily, feeling like he was almost rotting away in bed.

Because the hospital had lots of germs, they hadn’t brought the children. Even though the kids were continuously asking for their father at home, Shu Pan had hardened her heart.

She and Gu Shaoting had discussed it, and he was deeply pained, so now he wanted to hurry home.

“You still need to be on an IV for two more days. After that, you can leave. Your injury is not minor,” Shu Pan reminded him again.

“Ah, alright, but you’ll stay with me, right? Have you taken leave?” Gu Shaoting actually wanted to suggest, why not quit the job?

But he knew Shu Pan well, as they had been married for ten years. She would find a way to do what she wanted to do.

Unless she didn’t want to do it herself, so if resigning was to happen, it would have to be her decision, not his.

However, from the look of things, it seemed she hadn’t considered resigning.

He, the CEO of Gu Group, had to accept that his wife worked for someone else while he could do nothing about it.

“Yes, I’ve asked a few days off from the HR department,” Shu Pan replied.

Gu Shaoting looked dejected. He knew that Shu Pan wouldn’t resign.

“By the way, I need to go home this afternoon to change my clothes.” Shu Pan, who hurried over, was still in yesterday’s clothes, now that Gu Shaoting’s condition was stable and nothing serious, she was relatively at ease.

“Okay, come back as soon as you can; otherwise, I’ll be bored,” Gu Shaoting said glumly.

Shu Pan nodded helplessly.

…

In the afternoon, Shu Pan took her thermos and left.

Gu Shaoting got up and moved around, originally planning to handle some business over the phone, but thinking of Shu Pan’s warning just before she left, he decided against it.

Just then, the door to the ward opened, Gu Shaoting thought Shu Pan had come back, so without turning his head, he said, “Forgot something? Or can’t bear to leave me?”

Gu Shaoting joked.

After a while, not hearing a reply, he found it odd and turned around, only to be momentarily stunned.

It wasn’t Shu Pan, but Xia Xiaoqiao.

“Xiaoqiao? What are you doing here?” Gu Shaoting frowned and asked, hadn’t he told her not to come?

“Mr. Gu, I was just worried, so I came to check on you,” Xia Xiaoqiao stood at the door with a timid demeanor.

“Come in,” Gu Shaoting said, seeing her standing at the door looked improper.@@novelbin@@

“Xiaoqiao, really, you shouldn’t feel pressured. Like I said before, I would have saved anyone else in the same situation,” Gu Shaoting paused for a moment.

“By the way, Xiaoqiao, once you start work, report to the HR department. They will have a new job arrangement for you.”

Upon hearing this, Xia Xiaoqiao’s expression changed, “Mr. Gu, did I do something wrong?”
