Wen Chi was momentarily stunned; he hadn't expected Gu Shaoting to say such words. Still, he couldn't help but feel a hint of goodwill. Although still aloof, it was characteristic of his personality.
Shu Pan was also surprised. It was rare for Gu Shaoting to speak so gently.
After bidding farewell to Wen Chi, Shu Pan sat in the car with Joy, who seemed more awake now.
Gu Shaoting started the car and engaged in small talk with Joy while driving. Joy shared everything she had discussed with Wen Chi and what they had eaten tonight. However, Gu Shaoting's enthusiasm seemed low, and his face remained expressionless.
Glancing at him discreetly, Shu Pan sensed a melancholic atmosphere. She found Gu Shaoting's behavior tonight unexpectedly different.
He didn't like Wen Chi, yet he had agreed to Joy's request.
"Have you had dinner?" Shu Pan asked with concern.
