Let’s Divorce As Agreed-Chapter 1144 - 1143 Disappointment
Chapter 1144: Chapter 1143 Disappointment Chapter 1144 -1143 Disappointment Gu Shaoting really lived up to his promise. For the next two days, he behaved himself, only becoming lively at night.
Shu Pan was particularly busy these days, so she didn’t pay much attention to him.
She was really curious, though—doesn’t this workaholic ever get busy?
Finally, her work came to a temporary close.
She would return home tomorrow. Although Shu Pan had been busy the past few days, she missed her child even more. She had never been away from them for so long.
Though they video called every night, she still missed them dearly.
Every time he saw her, Gu Shaoting felt a sourness in his heart, as if he never received such attention when he was at home.
Wasn’t that the case? Gu Shaoting once again doubted whether he had a place in Shu Pan’s heart.
Shu Pan ignored his antics.
….
The next morning, a group of people appeared at the airport.
When Lu Lei saw Gu Shaoting, he thought he was seeing things. Wasn’t that the CEO of Gu Group, Gu Shaoting?
What was he doing here?
As Lu Lei wondered this, he approached to greet him.
“Mr. Gu, long time no see. I’m pleased to meet you here,” he said.
“Hello, Director Lu. What a coincidence,” Gu Shaoting replied warmly, as after all, this man was his wife’s boss, and he had to show respect.
“Are you here on a business trip as well?” Lu Lei made small talk with him.
“No, my wife is on a business trip here, so I came to see her,” Gu Shaoting explained briefly, mindful of Shu Pan’s earlier reminders to watch his words.
Just then, Shu Pan walked out from the direction of the restroom and noticed the two men talking.
She approached them and said, “Director Lu, good morning.”
Since the hotel wasn’t far from the airport, they had come separately that day.
It was mainly because Gu Shaoting had clung to her that morning, delaying their departure.
“Good morning, Shu Pan,” Lu Lei responded with a smile.

“This is…” Gu Shaoting pretended not to know.
“This is Director Lu, my boss, and this is Gu Shaoting, my husband,” Shu Pan introduced them. She never knew Gu Shaoting could act so well. He appeared quite convincing, and she introduced them properly to avoid any awkwardness.
When Lu Lei heard this, he was stunned. Shu Pan was Gu Shaoting’s wife? How was that possible? Why would she still work? Wasn’t it better to be a Young Madam at home?
Or did Gu Shaoting treat her poorly?
All of a sudden, Lu Lei had many questions in his mind.
And his heart was filled with disappointment; Shu Pan was a good employee and also the rare woman who’d touched his heart.
But he knew that one should not jest with a married woman, so he had to keep his affection and care deep inside.
In fact, he had always known that Shu Pan was married, but he had no idea that her husband was Gu Shaoting. Now, it was just a matter of coming to terms with the reality.
However, Lu Lei wasn’t some green young man, and he quickly composed himself, “Honored to meet you. It seems we are even more connected now that your wife is working at my company. My apologies for any lack of care on our part.”
See, this is how business people talk—all polished and smooth.
“Indeed, it’s worryingly unpredictable; tired of her own company, she decided to venture out,” Gu Shaoting said with a laugh.
Shu Pan listened to their veiled jibes and complaints on the side and was quite speechless.
Were these so-called business tycoons all so insincere? Clearly, there was disdain for each other.
Fortunately, the airport broadcast soon announced it was time to board, and Shu Pan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Lei was also tactful, not wishing to disturb the couple any longer, and took his leave.
Gu Shaoting could finally rest easy this time; the potential crisis had been averted.
