Gu Shaoting's mood remained unsettled for a long time. He sat quietly on the sofa, wondering when Shu Pan would return.
Around eight o'clock, just as his patience was wearing thin, the front door was unlocked, and he saw Shu Pan enter with her bag.
He stayed seated on the sofa.
When Shu Pan entered, she initially thought no one was at home. The living room light was off, with only a small lamp next to the sofa emitting a dim glow, creating a silent atmosphere.
Seeing the figure on the sofa, Shu Pan was startled.
She noticed Gu Shaoting sitting there, his face dark, motionless.
Breaking the silence, Shu Pan asked, "Have you had dinner?"
Gu Shaoting's face darkened even more for a moment. He looked at her with obvious displeasure, and his tone became cold, as if he were restraining something.
"Do you even remember if I've had dinner? How was your enjoyable chat with your friend?" Gu Shaoting's words had a strange tone.
