Let's Divorce As Agreed - Chapter 738
Chapter 738: Suspicion
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“Gu Shaoting cheating? That sounds like a tall tale.” Everyone could see how Gu Shaoting doted on his wife; why would he cheat?
“It’s just a suspicion. When I called him yesterday, I didn’t hear his voice. I only heard a woman’s voice, and she was calling him by name. If they weren’t in an intimate relationship, why would they be in the same room so late at night?”
The seed of suspicion in Shu Pan’s heart grew. Also, she didn’t know if she was imagining it but the woman’s voice sounded familiar. She seemed to have heard it somewhere before.
However, she could not remember where she had heard it before.
“This is indeed suspicious. Have you confronted him?” Ye Xiaomeng asked suddenly.
“No, his phone is turned off.” Shu Pan said bitterly.
Ye Xiaomeng frowned. This was indeed suspicious. One really couldn’t judge a book by its cover.
She said angrily, “Did he say when he would be back?”
“Not yet. His work problem hasn’t been resolved yet. I don’t think it’ll be soon.” Shu Pan pursed her lips, her expression a little sad.
She had been feeling down since she heard the news yesterday.
“Don’t worry. It could be a misunderstanding. Ask him when you get a chance.” Ye Xiaomeng comforted Shu Pan.
Shu Pan nodded.
“Xiaomeng, your wedding is coming up soon. Are you nervous? Is everything ready?” Shu Pan asked.
“Don’t get me started. It’s He Ming who’s been busy with the preparations. His mother doesn’t really care. I saw He Ming running around and told him to simplify everything. Just invite our close friends and have dinner together. He doesn’t need to sweat so much over the wedding.” Ye Xiaomeng started to share her grievances when her wedding was brought up.
They had already settled on a date, but because of his mother, they had changed it repeatedly. Ye Xiaomeng just felt tired. She couldn’t care less about the wedding ceremony now.
Shu Pan looked at Xiaomeng’s bulging belly and couldn’t help but say, “That’s true. In the end, you’re the ones who are stressed out. You must take care of yourself. You are getting bigger. You must be careful when you move around.”
“If his mother is still not happy, I plan to just register the marriage and forget about the wedding.” Ye Xiaomeng thought that Mrs. He was probably unhappy with her when she changed their wedding date again at the last minute.
“Talk to her. Don’t be rash.” Shu Pan was worried that her best friend would act impulsively and ruin things.
“Don’t worry. For the sake of our baby, I’ll endure it. Besides, we’re not living together, so it’s fine. It’s just that I’m getting bigger by the day and I’m embarrassed to have my gown altered again and again.” Ye Xiaomeng said in frustration.
Shu Pan could imagine the awkwardness of such a scene.
The two of them chatted for a while, but they weren’t in any mood to shop. They both went home after having tea.
Shu Pan didn’t receive a call from Gu Shaoting the entire day.
Shu Pan didn’t want to call him again. She was worried that a woman would pick up the phone like last night.
She went home and sat on the sofa with her eyes closed like she was about to fall asleep.
“You are home, Madam. Please go to your room and rest if you are tired.” Auntie Li walked over and reminded Shu Pan gently.
“Yeah, I should.” Shu Pan nodded and got up to go to her bedroom.
Auntie Li looked at Shu Pan and felt that she was a little strange today. Mrs. Gu seemed unhappy today.
Shu Pan returned to her room and leaned against the headboard to rest before she took a shower.
Suddenly, the phone on the bedside table beeped a few times. It was a message.
Shu Pan was nervous. It was probably a message from Gu Shaoting. Sometimes, he worried that she was asleep and sent her messages instead.
She hurriedly picked up her phone and clicked on the new message.
Her face instantly turned as white as snow.
She couldn’t believe her eyes. Everything she heard over the phone yesterday was real.
