Chapter 431 - 431: Gu Huanhuan

Suddenly, her heart was in turmoil again.

She remembered she hadn’t reminded him to stay safe, so she tried calling his phone, but it kept ringing busy.

She tried several times, but it was the same.

Oh well, he’s usually so decisive and calm. She believed he would handle whatever it was just fine.

Shu Pan kept reassuring herself because he hadn’t explicitly mentioned what the urgent matter was, so she didn’t want to pry.

After pondering for a while, Shu Pan decided to put her phone away.

Since Gu Shaoting had left, Shu Pan didn’t feel like continuing to shop. It was almost time to meet Joy.

She decided to take a stroll and go meet Joy.

If she didn’t find something to do, she was afraid she would keep worrying about Gu Shaoting.

At the same time, Gu Shaoting was driving to his second uncle’s house.

His private phone had just rung, and he felt a pang of worry. It was usually a family emergency when that phone rang.

“Shaoting, you’re finally here. I’ve been so worried,” Gu Shaoting’s second uncle greeted him as if he were a savior.

“Uncle, what happened?” Gu Shaoting’s face also showed some anxiety, as it was rare to see his second uncle so distraught.

“Ah, it’s your troublesome cousin, Huanhuan. She’s back in the country, no longer abroad. She secretly went to interview with a talent agency and is now pursuing her dream of becoming a star.” The second uncle’s words were rushed and jumbled because he was so agitated.

Though Gu Shaoting managed to grasp the gist of it, it was clear that his cousin, Gu Huanhuan, had returned to pursue a career in the entertainment industry after completing her studies.

Huanhuan was his second uncle’s favorite, born when he was much older, so she was cherished like a pearl.

Growing up, she and Gu Shaoting had a close relationship because they were the only ones in their family. Gu Shaoting treated her like a little sister and always catered to her requests.

He was always there to clean up her messes whenever she got into trouble.

This time, she had entered the entertainment industry, probably because she was afraid her family wouldn’t approve and kept everyone in the dark.

Her worry was justified; her family would definitely disapprove.

What kind of place was the entertainment industry? It’s a melting pot of all sorts, with all kinds of people. Gu Huanhuan, as an innocent girl, was like a blank sheet of paper. How could she handle it? She only saw the glamorous side of being a star and didn’t realize the sacrifices and dark aspects behind the scenes.

This girl was really reckless. Usually, everyone spoiled her too much.

“Uncle, don’t worry. I’ll talk to her and find out where she is.” Gu Shaoting comforted him.

“She’s probably out with her friends. I didn’t know anything until a friend told me she had filmed some advertisements and gained some fame, becoming one of those internet celebrities. It’s all a mess. I thought she was working at a company.” Gu Shaoting’s second uncle got a headache whenever he thought of his daughter.

His daughter, who used to be so well-behaved, why was she so stubborn about this?

“Don’t get worked up. I’ll talk to her. Grandpa shouldn’t know about this, right?” Grandpa always stayed at the second uncle’s house.

“How dare I tell the old man? Wouldn’t that make him anxious too?” Gu Shaoting’s second uncle sighed.

“Okay, if she comes back, call me. I’ll have someone look for her whereabouts now.” Gu Shaoting reassured his second uncle.

“Alright, thank you. Please try to persuade that girl.” With Gu Shaoting’s words, the second uncle’s suspended heart finally settled.

He trusted Gu Shaoting’s abilities..
