Let’s Divorce As Agreed

Chapter 19

Shu Pan took a taxi to Gu Shaoting’s company building. She looked up at the towering and fashionable skyscraper with the shining words “Gu Group” on it. There were a few times she passed by the entrance but never went inside, just hurriedly walked away. She felt out of place in this place.

Taking a deep breath, Shu Pan walked into the lobby. It was grand and luxurious, and her high heels made a crisp sound on the smooth floor tiles. The receptionist stood up and politely asked, “Miss, do you have an appointment?”

“No, I want to see your CEO, Mr. Gu. Please inform him,” Shu Pan didn’t expect it to be so difficult to meet Gu Shaoting face to face. She pursed her lips, her expression cold.

“Sorry, without an appointment, you can’t go up. It’s company policy,” the receptionist glanced at Shu Pan and spoke firmly.

It was her first time coming here, so it was no wonder the company employees didn’t recognize her. Moreover, she was wearing a slightly worn-out coat and had no makeup on her face, appearing plain and unadorned. It was also understandable that the receptionist looked at her with a biased eye.

Initially, Shu Pan didn’t want to come to the company. She felt their relationship hadn’t reached that stage yet and was afraid of awkwardness. Besides, there was nothing specific she needed to come to the company for. Even the employees didn’t know that Gu Shaoting was already married.

“Is he in his office?” Shu Pan’s expression remained unchanged.

“He is, but he’s probably busy,” the receptionist replied.

Helpless, Shu Pan decided to go home and wait for Gu Shaoting.

Just as she was about to turn around and leave, He Ming suddenly emerged from the nearby elevator and was surprised to see Shu Pan.

He Ming approached her, a little afraid to meet her eyes directly.

“Sister Shu, are you looking for Brother Ting?” He Ming asked knowingly. In his eyes, Shu Pan was innocent. In the eyes of others, the couple had always been harmonious. But he also knew that it was difficult to change Gu Shaoting’s decisions. He had earnestly advised Gu Shaoting, but it ultimately depended on Shu Pan’s own fate.

“Yes, he’s in his office on the top floor. You can go directly to him,” He Ming opened the elevator door for her.

“Thank you,” Shu Pan entered the elevator and saw her reflection in the mirrored walls. She couldn’t help but feel nervous.

Stepping out of the elevator, she saw a desk beside the door with the words “CEO’s Office” written on it. A young man with glasses and a gentle appearance stood up. It was Assistant Zhang, who had come to their house a few times to collect documents. He was one of the few people who knew they were married.contemporary romance

“Hello, Madam.”

“Hello, I want to see Mr. Gu,” Shu Pan felt relieved when she saw a familiar face.

Assistant Zhang knocked on the office door and then opened it.

“Please come in.”

Shu Pan clenched her palm and walked in.

This was the first time Shu Pan saw such a large office. There was a row of floor-to-ceiling windows with an endless view outside. A large and elegant wooden desk had a classical color that immediately stood out.

Gu Shaoting sat expressionlessly in front of the desk, looking up at the person entering.

“Gu Shaoting, what do you really want? How can you let go of my father?” Shu Pan stared at him intently, her black eyes shimmering with moisture. She spoke directly, unable to hold back her words.

“I’m just returning the favor in kind. Shu Pan, your father has enjoyed a good life all these years, but what about my father? He died with unfinished business, and Shu Laide can never repay it even if he dies ten times,” Gu Shaoting pursed his lips and clenched his fist.

Gu Shaoting was handsome with attractive features. His eyebrows were deep-set, and the words he spoke now were chilling and devoid of warmth. Before they had torn off their facades, she never thought he could be such a cold and ruthless person. Although he didn’t have a smile on his face, it was not as chilling as at this moment.

“He’s currently sick and hospitalized. We only want to sell our property to repay the debts and then stay far away from you. He has already received the punishment he deserved. He knows his mistakes. I beg you, please let him go,” Shu Pan pleaded.
