Chapter 172: Mr. Gu
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Gu Shaoting thoroughly enjoyed his current life, feeling that he could quickly adjust after amnesia, and the major contributor to this was Shu Pan.
Although Shu Pan denied every time that they were not familiar with each other.
However, he was patient and believed that they had some connection.
Time would prove everything.
While Gu Shaoting was lost in thought, Shu Pan had already cooked the meal.
She held a porcelain plate with a delicious aroma emanating from the dishes inside.
“Mr. Gu, you can have your meal now,” Shu Pan said to him.
As soon as Gu Shaoting heard her address him as Mr. Gu, his face immediately wrinkled, as if he could squeeze mosquitoes to death. Seeing his sudden change, Shu Pan was a bit puzzled.
“What’s wrong?” Shu Pan asked.
“Although you say we’re not familiar, we’re now living under the same roof. Why are you still calling me Mr. Gu? I didn’t hire you as a part-time cleaner. I thought after spending this time together, we were already friends.” Gu Shaoting’s words were full of complaints.
The phrase “Mr. Gu” coming from Shu Pan’s mouth felt like a thorn to him, causing a slight pain.
He was more disappointed because in Shu Pan’s heart, he was probably just an unfamiliar Mr. Gu.
Mr. Gu—polite but distant.
“You can call me Shaoting.” Gu Shaoting saw that Shu Pan remained silent and corrected her.
Actually, Shu Pan didn’t think too much about it. Out of gratitude, she took care of him for a while, and they wouldn’t have any intersection in the future. So, calling him “Mr. Gu” seemed appropriate, and there was nothing wrong with it.
Seeing Gu Shaoting so tangled up, she felt a bit speechless.
“Names don’t matter. Let’s eat quickly. The food will get cold soon.” After placing the plate on the dining table, Shu Pan turned and went back to the kitchen.
When she came out again, she saw that Gu Shaoting was still in the same position, not moving.
“Gu Shaoting, let’s eat.” Shu Pan directly called his name. What’s wrong with this guy? It’s hard to serve him a meal.
“Oh, I got it.” Gu Shaoting, upon hearing Shu Pan call him, happily walked to the dining table.
Shu Pan had already set up two sets of bowls and chopsticks. The two chairs at the dining table were placed opposite each other.
Gu Shaoting pulled out a chair and sat down. He looked at Shu Pan and said, “You should sit down and eat too. After we finish, the auntie tomorrow can clean up the dishes and stuff.”
“It’s okay. Washing the dishes doesn’t take much time.” Shu Pan, while speaking, sat down across from Gu Shaoting.
She was not a noble lady. And there was no need to make it difficult for her own stomach. Eat quickly, rest early, and hopefully, Gu Shaoting would recover his memory tomorrow.
“When you returned here, did you feel any familiarity? For example, the vase next to the TV cabinet, you auctioned it off at a high price…”
Listening to Shu Pan introducing other things in the house, he suddenly stopped picking up the food and looked at her with a playful expression.
“Why are you so familiar with things in my house? Miss Shu Pan, who is not very familiar with me,” he teased.
Shu Pan was suddenly speechless, realizing that she had crossed a line.
How could a stranger go so far as to know everything about someone else’s house?
Shu Pan cursed herself for being a fool. Was she such a low-level mistake?
“I…l…heard it from He Ming,” Shu Pan, who was originally stuttering, suddenly turned her brain and found a reason.
“Oh…so that’s how it is.” Gu Shaoting’s voice dragged on for a long time, with a subtle joy that was not easily detectable.
“That’s right,” Shu Pan finished speaking and lowered her head, focusing on eating.
Gu Shaoting looked at her, his smile filled with indulgence..
