“But I don’t know He Ming very well. It’ll be awkward if I go.” Shu Pan said a little uncomfortably. She didn’t like occasions that made her feel like a zoo animal being gawked at.

“It’s okay. He invited you too. I’m just the messenger. If you don’t want to go, you’ll need to tell him yourself.” Gu Shaoting passed the ball to He Ming.

“Alright then.” Shu Pan agreed helplessly.

“I’ll pick Joy up later and then pick you up. Is that okay?” Gu Shaoting sought Shu Pan’s opinion.

“Sure.” Shu Pan dove back into work after she hung up as the tender closing date was approaching.

Shu Pan came back from the photocopying room with a stack of documents. She was busy for a while before she had time to check her phone.

She had two recent missed calls.

She was very familiar with the caller’s phone number. It belonged to her best friend, Ye Xiaomeng.contemporary romance

Xiaomeng had been on a business trip for more than ten days, and Joy had been complaining about missing her godmother.

Shu Pan smiled as she looked at her phone; she called the number back without much thought.

The phone rang twice before it was picked up. Ye Xiaomeng’s grumbling voice sounded, “Girl, you still remember to call me back? I’ve been on a business trip for so long, but you and Joy didn’t even miss me.”

“I just saw the missed calls, so…”

Before Shu Pan could finish, Ye Xiaomeng interrupted, “I don’t accept your apology. I’ll be back tonight to introduce someone to you. Remember to make time tonight.”

“Is it your boyfriend?” Shu Pan teased. Ye Xiaomeng sounded so serious; this person was probably important to her, so she wanted to introduce him to her.

“It shall remain a mystery for the time being.” Ye Xiaomeng kept Shu Pan in suspense. Life was short; she didn’t want to waste her youth and wanted someone who cared about her.

Although He Ming had his flaws, especially having a so-called “sister” but he also said that he would stop meddling in her business. Ye Xiaomeng believed him for the time being and gave him a chance.

She also wanted to give them both a chance. If he made the same mistake again, it would be very difficult for her to forgive him.

“Alright, alright. What’s more important than your love life?” Shu Pan figured that she would call Gu Shaoting later to get herself out of dinner with his friend.

“That’s more like it. Seven o’clock tonight at Gathered Dragon. I’ll see you there.” Ye Xiaomeng gave her the time and venue.

“What, Gathered Dragon too?” Shu Pan’s voice could not help but raise a pitch.

Why was everyone meeting there? Were there no other restaurants in Bin City?

“Yeah, what’s the problem?” Ye Xiaomeng was startled by Shu Pan’s raised pitch.

“Nothing. I’ll see you there at seven.” Shu Pan felt that the arrangement would work too because she could say hi to He Ming before she joined Xiaomeng at the same restaurant.

Shu Pan looked at the time after she hung up. It was almost time for Gu Shaoting and Joy to pick her up, so she started packing.

“Shu Pan, it’s rare for you to leave office so early. Something’s up.” Tang Wei joked with a sinister smile.

“I’m having dinner with a friend tonight.” Shu Pan smiled.

“Is it with the handsome guy from last time?” Tang Wei’s eyes seemed to be shooting hearts.

Shu Pan knew that she was talking about Chi. She shook her head with a smile. “No, stop prying. It’s a female friend.”

Shu Pan’s mind wandered a little when Tang Wei brought up Chi, who should be back from his studies soon.

“I’m leaving. You should leave early too. Be careful.” Shu Pan said goodbye to Tang Wei.

“Ta-ta.” Tang Wei made a goodbye gesture to her..
