Let's Divorce As Agreed

Chapter 1090: Where is the 1089th ring?

Shu Pan looked at her own fingers, slender and delicate, undoubtedly they would look nice with a ring.

She glanced at Gu Shaoting and then said, “It’s inconvenient to wear a ring while working, so I left it at home.”

Shu Pan explained that she wasn’t in the habit of wearing a ring in the first place.

But she was somewhat puzzled as to why Gu Shaoting had suddenly become preoccupied with this question.

“The ring I gave you is very small and won’t interfere with your work; wear it when you get home, will you?” Gu Shaoting spoke up.

“Alright.” Since he insisted so much, and it was his sincere gesture, Shu Pan readily agreed.

...

Shu Pan nodded, then turned to see the red roses in the back seat of the car, which were stunningly vibrant.

She paused for a moment, looking at him with a somewhat peculiar gaze. What was going on?

His behavior had been strange for the past couple of days, yet she couldn’t pinpoint the reason.

Gu Shaoting met her suspicious gaze and said, “Do you like them?”

“Why?” Shu Pan asked naively, a bit baffled.

“Just say if you like them. Can’t Hubby try to be romantic?” Gu Shaoting chuckled deeply, his voice magnetic and quite pleasing.

Gu Shaoting spoke as he started the car.

They went to a high-end restaurant, and Gu Shaoting ordered many dishes Shu Pan liked.

The two of them chatted and laughed.

…

When they returned home, Shu Pan went to check on the child and then headed back to the bedroom.

She found the ring Gu Shaoting had given her, opened it, took out the ring, and put it on her finger.

She stretched out her hand, the ring glittering under the light.

She paused for a moment, somewhat dazed. Having been married for so long, she rarely wore a ring, finding it inconvenient, and had not anticipated that Gu Shaoting cared so much about ceremony.

While she was lost in thought, Gu Shaoting came in. Seeing the ring on Shu Pan’s hand, he couldn’t help but smile knowingly; look, how beautiful it was.

He walked over, wrapped his arms around her waist from behind, and covered her hand with his, the room filled with warmth.

…

As the collaboration with Wang Dali was still in the discussion stage, seizing the opportune moment, once Gu Shaoting returned to the office, he immediately contacted Wang Dali to ask if he had made up his mind.

Wang Dali was indeed cunning, initially beating around the bush, and Gu Shaoting was no longer patient enough to keep up with him.

“Mr. Wang, if you are still hesitant, then let’s just call it off. The Corporation has other investment opportunities where I might need to allocate the funds,” Gu Shaoting said firmly.

Wang Dali was taken aback, then responded, “Little brother Gu, you must be joking. We definitely are going to proceed with our collaboration. Okay, proceed as you mentioned last time; ask your secretary to prepare the contract and send it over to me.”

Upon hearing Gu Shaoting’s words, Wang Dali immediately made his stance clear.

This old fox.

Gu Shaoting sighed in relief, finally, this matter was also taking shape.

After hanging up the phone, Gu Shaoting immediately asked Xia Xiaoqiao to prepare the contract, to avoid any further delays.

Xia Xiaoqiao was quick and got it ready immediately.

“Secretary Xia, please take it over,” Gu Shaoting said.

“Okay, I got it, Mr. Gu, I’m on my way now,” Xia Xiaoqiao nodded and then left.

Xia Xiaoqiao, following the address given by Mr. Wang, delivered the contract to his office. It was here, that Xia Xiaoqiao felt less nervous.

She reached Mr. Wang’s company, and after being announced by the secretary, went directly to Mr. Wang’s office. However, it was strange, just now the secretary said he was in, but now she couldn’t see anyone there.
