Let’s Divorce As Agreed-Chapter 1137 - 1136 Sour at Heart
Chapter 1137 -1136 Sour at Heart
Gu Shaoting had been staring at his phone, but it just wouldn’t ring.
He felt increasingly dejected.
Did he no longer hold any significance in Shu Pan’s heart?
Her business trip this time seemed to be merely a notification, completely disregarding his thoughts.
Even when Gu Shaoting got home, Shu Pan hadn’t called.
After dinner, Gu Shaoting was playing with Joy and Xiaobao.
Updat𝓮d from frёewebnoѵēl.com.
Suddenly, the phone on Joy’s wristwatch rang, and Joy happily said, “Mommy is calling me.”
“Why do you know it’s Mommy calling?” Gu Shaoting asked in confusion.
“Because when Mommy left today, she told me, as long as I am good, she will call me,” Joy said proudly.
Gu Shaoting was momentarily stunned and blurted out, “Did Mommy say she would call Daddy?”
Gu Shaoting asked with hope, suddenly feeling envious of Joy.
Joy shook her head and honestly replied, “No, I guess Daddy wasn’t good.”
Gu Shaoting wanted to say something else, but Joy interrupted him, “Daddy, I want to listen to Mommy’s call first.”
“Okay, once you’re done, can Daddy listen for a bit, is that okay?” Gu Shaoting pleaded pathetically.
“Alright, as long as Mommy isn’t busy,” Joy said smartly, her words incredibly irritating.
Gu Shaoting never imagined that one day he would have to heed his daughter’s mood.
Heh, he couldn’t help but laugh bitterly inside, it was truly a self-inflicted pain, all his own doing.
He quickly realized that he had angered Shu Pan, yet he didn’t have the chance to apologize.
Finally, Joy pressed the answer button, and Shu Pan’s voice immediately came from the other end.
“Is it Joy? Have you eaten?” Shu Pan asked gently.
“I did, Mommy, and you?” Joy asked.
“I did too. Are you and your brother behaving?” Shu Pan continued.
“We are behaving, Mommy, don’t worry. You eat well and work well, we miss you.” Joy’s words deeply moved Shu Pan, truly, daughters are like little warm jackets, even when she felt lost and unhappy, just hearing her daughter’s words made her feel revived.
“Mmm, Mommy misses you and Xiaobao too. Be good, and I’ll bring gifts back for you,” Shu Pan promised over the phone.
“Okay, that’s great, I love you, Mommy,” Joy was overjoyed, dancing with excitement.
Gu Shaoting watched eagerly from the side and then nodded at his daughter, hoping she would pass him the phone.
Joy saw that Daddy looked rather pitiful because Mommy had mentioned bringing gifts for her and Xiaobao, but not for Daddy.
Seeing how pitiful he was, she felt barely able to let him listen for a bit.
“Mmm, I love you too,” Shu Pan’s voice was soft and comforting to hear.
When Gu Shaoting took the phone, what he heard was this phrase; how long had it been since he had heard her declaration of love?
Now hearing this phrase felt somewhat surreal, as though it had been a very long time since there had been any loving scene between them.
Gu Shaoting knew there was a problem between them.
“Joy, are you still listening?” Shu Pan’s voice rang out again.
“Panpan, it’s me, Joy just stepped away,” Gu Shaoting’s voice suddenly came through, startling Shu Pan.
How could it be him? She had intentionally distanced herself because she didn’t want to deal with him.
“Oh, well, there’s nothing then, please take care of the kids these days,” Shu Pan said politely, her tone starkly different from before.
