Chapter 1147: Chapter 1146: Time to Wake Up from the Dream
This time, Xia Xiaoqiao was at a loss for words, as there was no rebuttal to that reason.
She finally realized, and she finally gave up hope.
She had always thought Mr. Gu didn’t pay much attention to his wife, since he hardly mentioned her.
Moreover, Mrs. Gu’s visits to the company could truly be counted on one hand.
If they were so affectionate, why would it be like this? Shouldn’t they be eager to stick together every day?
It’s also her own folly for failing to see the clear situation.
Currently, it wasn’t that Mr. Gu didn’t love his wife, but that his emotions were more reserved. They both had a low-profile personality, hence they didn’t like to make their affection public.
But once something is said, it’s like spilled water; Mr. Gu’s attitude this time was very firm, with no room for reversal.
Xia Xiaoqiao stood there for a while, and seeing that Gu Shaoting had already immersed himself in his work, she felt it was inappropriate to keep standing there.
So she leaned towards him slightly and said, “Sorry for the trouble.”
After that, she walked out and even closed the door behind her.
Back at her seat, looking at everything familiar, her eyes inevitably became heated, feeling a haze clouding her vision.
It was over, finally over. After dreaming for so long, she was finally waking up.
Actually, she should have woken up sooner. Devoting her heart to someone like him was hopeless from the start.
How could she be worthy of such an outstanding man?
Now thinking about her actions, she found them laughable. Probably many people were waiting to laugh at her, right?
As she thought this, she began packing up her belongings. She would probably go over there to hand over her duties. Honestly, how could she still have the face to stay here?
She’d leave after handing over everything. That was her decision.
…
As soon as Gu Shaoting finished work, he immediately went home. Now with nothing else on his mind, he didn’t want to stay at the company for another moment.
Upon returning home and seeing Shu Pan dressing Xiaobao, he was just about to speak when he suddenly noticed an unexpected person on the sofa who shouldn’t have still been there at this time—his sister, Gu Huanhuan.
“Why are you here? Where’s Uncle Wen?” Gu Shaoting asked as soon as he saw her.
“What, not welcome?” Gu Huanhuan replied discontentedly, hearing his question.
“Did you two have a fight?” Gu Shaoting didn’t reply to her but directly asked.
“Um… kind of.” Gu Huanhuan responded somewhat sheepishly. It wasn’t really a fight, more like she was acting on a whim.
“You’re grown up and still so capricious, only Uncle Wen indulges you like this,” Gu Shaoting said, frowning.
“Aren’t you still my brother? Why don’t you ever take my side?” Gu Huanhuan cried out.
Everyone thinks she’s being unreasonable, but it wasn’t her fault this time, OK?
“I stand on the side of reason. So tell me, what happened this time?” Gu Shaoting continued to press.
Not wanting her family to worry, Gu Huanhuan muttered a response, “It’s a long story, but it’s not my fault.”
After saying that, she called out to Shu Pan, “Cousin-in-law, my brother doesn’t welcome me!”
Shu Fu rolled her eyes. These siblings really, still acting like children.
“Your brother cares about you. Rest early. We can talk about it tomorrow,” Shu Pan said, knowing the whole story and hoping they would both cool off.
