Chapter 32: Meeting a Bestie

The sketchbook titled "Mr. Gu" was filled with drawings of him, capturing various moments and expressions.

Shu Pan randomly flipped open a page and saw a sketch of Gu Shaoting sitting on the terrace, engrossed in reading documents. Every detail was so captivating. She particularly loved seeing him at work. Although she hadn\'t witnessed him working in the office, every scene at home was deeply etched in her mind.

Whenever she felt tired or lacked inspiration for drawing, she would take out the sketchbook and create a drawing. She imagined showing them to her future child, proudly telling them, "Your dad is very dedicated to his work. You should learn from him."

But now everything was just a dream. It was unlikely that they would ever achieve a harmonious family.

Before going to bed, her thoughts were interrupted by the ringing of her phone. Who could be calling at such a late hour? She checked and saw that it was Ye Xiaomeng, who wanted to meet tomorrow. Shu Pan agreed immediately after they decided on the time and place. They hung up their phones.

Although the doctor had advised her to rest and avoid exhaustion, she thought it wouldn\'t hurt to go out once in a while. It had been a long time since she last saw Xiaomeng. She wondered how Xiaomeng had been recently. Judging from Xiaomeng\'s tone, Shu Pan had no idea what had happened, but she guessed that Xiaomeng had some conflict with Cheng Yang. However, based on Xiaomeng\'s current attitude, the situation seemed to be more serious than she had imagined.

After graduating, Ye Xiaomeng went directly to a real estate company to work in sales. Normally, she had no ambitions or desires and didn\'t care much about work, especially since Cheng Yang earned a high income. While her colleagues who joined the company at the same time had already become department managers, she remained a salesperson, with average performance that didn\'t stand out.

Now that she was pregnant and feeling unwell, she had taken a long leave to rest at home.

In the afternoon, they agreed to meet at the Left Bank Café. Soft, melodious background music flowed gently in the quiet atmosphere.

Shu Pan looked at Ye Xiaomeng sitting across from her, noticing her troubled expression. She pretended to be relaxed and said, "Your Highness, what would you like to drink?"

"I\'ll have a glass of fresh juice," Ye Xiaomeng replied indignantly.

Shu Pan called the waiter over and ordered two glasses of fresh juice, along with two slices of cake for their afternoon tea.

She then instructed the waiter to serve them as quickly as possible.

The waiter nodded repeatedly and brought them their tea.

Looking at Ye Xiaomeng\'s displeased face, Shu Pan tried to ask in a casual tone, "What happened? Which servant upset her grace?"

"Hmph, some people really have no shame. Who does he think he is? Did he think I wanted to work under him? Look at himself first, relying on women for personal gain and climbing the ladder through vanity. It\'s embarrassing to even talk about it."

Shu Pan listened with confusion, not understanding what Ye Xiaomeng was saying. "What\'s the situation? Can you explain?"

Ye Xiaomeng looked at Shu Pan seriously and said, "Thank goodness you didn\'t end up with that heartless and despicable guy. He\'s simply not a decent person."

After saying that, Ye Xiaomeng was filled with indignation. Seeing the person in question, she would probably spit in disgust.

"Are you talking about Su Yuan?" Shu Pan cautiously asked.

"It\'s not just him. There\'s more to it!" Ye Xiaomeng was getting angrier just thinking about it. Initially, she didn\'t even know who the new boss of the company was. But then she received a personnel letter that stated she was negligent in her work, lacked initiative, and couldn\'t create value for the company. The letter informed her that the company would no longer employ her.
