After the banquet concluded, Shu Pan saw Tong Fei pulling Gu Shaoting aside, not sure what they were discussing. Tong Fei's coquettish demeanor made it hard for anyone to refuse her requests.
Sure enough, she saw Gu Shaoting nodding and leaving with Tong Fei.
Thinking that she might need to take a ride back, Shu Pan decided to greet the grandpa first. With many of his old friends and former business partners attending the birthday party, he was busy socializing, leaving no chance for Shu Pan to exchange a few words with him.
After exchanging a few heartfelt words with the grandpa and letting him know that Gu Shaoting had left for something, Shu Pan returned home around 9 o'clock. Since she hadn't eaten much at the birthday banquet, she made herself a bowl of soup noodles for the night and then went to her room to take a shower.
