Shu Pan looked at the disconnected phone call and let out a bitter smile. She truly had no way to deal with him.

Afterward, she thought that as long as she didn’t tell him her location, there was nothing he could do. Once she gave birth to the child, she would slowly repay the money she owed him.

To bring some liveliness to her home, Shu Pan turned on the TV and then hurried to the kitchen to wash rice and cook. When she returned to the living room, she heard a familiar name from the TV.

The entertainment news headlines were reporting on Gu Shaoting and Tong Fei. Shu Pan hesitated for a moment before turning her attention to the television.

Gu Shaoting appeared on the screen, dressed in a black suit and white shirt, with his arm around Tong Fei. Tong Fei wore a pair of sunglasses, exuding a captivating aura as she nestled in his arms. They were truly a perfect match, and anyone who saw them would say the same.

The man was handsome, but the word “handsome” seemed insufficient to describe his beauty. No matter how long you stared, you wouldn’t tire of it. The woman was tall and slender, with outstanding looks. They were simply a match made in heaven.

Unconsciously, Shu Pan clenched her hand. Even she couldn’t help but exclaim at how perfectly suited they were. It was no wonder Gu Shaoting was so

resolute in getting a divorce.

Watching Gu Shaoting calmly handle the reporters, skillfully avoiding their questions, and protecting Tong Fei, Shu Pan couldn’t help but feel impressed.

The TV suddenly switched to another scene. Shu Pan pressed her lips together and shifted her gaze away. She no longer watched the TV and returned to the kitchen to continue what she was doing.

Only she knew the pain and numbness in her heart. “Shu Pan, you’re just a coward,” she silently chastised herself.

In the evening, Shu Laide and Lu Lifen returned home, and the family enjoyed dinner together. “Panpan, can your body handle working during your pregnancy?” Lu Lifen asked worriedly. Although she had never been pregnant, she knew that doing tasks with a big belly would be tiring.

“It’s fine. I don’t feel tired. I’m just arranging flowers, not doing anything heavy. Besides, I read that pregnant women should move around more for a better delivery.” Shu Pan smiled knowingly.

Hearing her response, Shu Laide and Lu Lifen felt much relieved.

After dinner, Shu Pan returned to her room. Unconsciously, she took out an album she hadn’t looked at for a long time. She touched the portraits with a

misty gaze, feeling a bit sentimental tonight.

Time flowed like water, slowly passing by. In the blink of an eye, over a month had gone by, and it was now early summer.

Shu Pan was almost six months pregnant, firmly in the mid-term of her pregnancy. According to what she had read, the mid-term was the most comfortable phase, and everything tasted good.

However, Shu Pan was an exception. Her early pregnancy had been mild, causing her little trouble, but as she entered the mid-term, she began to suffer.

With summer arriving and no air conditioning at home, pregnant women were more sensitive to heat. Shu Pan found it hard to sleep through the night, and even during the day, she felt constant sweat on her brow.

The worst part was her poor appetite. She would vomit after eating anything, and sometimes, she would even vomit stomach acid when there was nothing left. As a result, Shu Pan lost a lot of weight in a short period, and her belly grew significantly larger.

Family and friends were concerned when they saw her. Lan Lan advised, ‘You might as well rest at home. This isn’t good for the baby.”

“It’s okay. I feel worse just idling at home. Maybe I’m not used to the sudden change in weather. ” After vomiting, Shu Pan’s face turned a bit pale.

“In that case, take care of yourself. If you’re uncomfortable, remember to see a doctor.” Lan Lan reminded her. She had learned that Shu Pan had gotten a divorce, but since Shu Pan didn’t want to talk about the past, Lan Lan didn’t press further. Everyone had their own secrets.

“Sure.” Shu Pan readily agreed.

If it weren’t for the incident with Xiaomeng, Shu Pan’s summer would have been relatively peaceful..
