While Gu Shaoting and Joy were happily having dinner together, Shu Pan felt like a cat on a hot tin roof.

After she hung up on Gu Shaoting, Su Yuan was there to pick her up.

Just like before, he greeted her with a smile.

Shu Pan couldn’t help but sigh in her heart. God had been really kind to Su Yuan. Time had left no traces on his face. He had instead become more charming with age.contemporary romance

A man like him would always turn people’s heads when he walked on the street.

“Pan, what would you like to eat?” Su Yuan asked as he drove.

“You decide.” Shu Pan’s hand was white from gripping her backpack so tightly. She was still nervous when facing him.

For some reason, she felt a sense of oppression.

“Pan, I remember that when we were in university, you loved to get snacks with Xiaomeng outside the back gate of our school. Do you still like that place?” Su Yuan found random subjects to engage Shu Pan in conversation so it didn’t feel awkward in the car.

“I went there once with Xiaomeng but that place is closed now. It’s been so long after all. Many things have changed.” Xiaomeng tried to hint at something.

But Su Yuan just smiled. “That’s true. Places may change but people may not.”

Su Yuan stopped his car at the entrance of a high-end restaurant. He was directed to the VIP parking lot probably because he was driving a very nice car.

Shu Pan didn’t recognize the logo on Su Yuan’s car because she had never seen it before, but she knew that it was a luxury car.

As it was a luxury car, the interior was very comfortable and passersby who saw his car earlier stopped to stare and talked about it afterward.

Shu Pan walked behind Su Yuan, and a waiter led them into a private room.

Su Yuan was probably a regular customer here and a VIP because shortly after they sat down, the restaurant manager came by to welcome them personally.

He even introduced the menu to them.

Su Yuan quickly ordered a few dishes. He knew that Shu Pan ate light, so the dishes he ordered were all Shu Pan’s favorites.

While waiting for their food, Su Yuan asked with a smile, “Do you like this place? You can come here often with your friends. I own this restaurant.”

Shu Pan was stunned when she heard this. Su Yuan had indeed changed over the few years. He was even more outstanding than before.

Shu Pan thought to herself that she would never patronize such a high-end restaurant.

Su Yuan seemed to have read her mind. He laughed, and his laughter sounded like the lower register of the piano.

“Just use my name when you come here. I’ll give you a VIP card later.”

“No need, no need. I seldom eat out.” Shu Pan waved her hand and declined his offer.

“It’s okay. Just come over when you feel like eating out. Don’t feel obliged. Putting aside our other relationships, we’re still schoolmates.” Shu Pan felt that she would never win against Su Yuan. He always had all kinds of reasons to make people accept his ideas.

After their dishes were served, Su Yuan picked up a lot of food for Shu Pan, making her stop him repeatedly.

“Pan, you must have had a hard time these years.” Su Yuan lamented, more out of self-blame.

Because he was also in hot water back then.

He wanted a divorce, but his wife, Zhou Jie, refused.

Later, she even told him that she had gone to see Shu Pan, which made Su Yuan furious.

As he was still a married man, he tried to cut down contact with Shu Pan so he wouldn’t cause her unnecessary trouble.

His marriage with Zhou Jie had, in fact, existed in name only for a long time. Even if there was no Shu Pan, they would have divorced because during their six years of marriage, they both knew that they were only in it for their own benefits..
