“I’ve practiced before. If you like to dance, I can accompany you.” Gu Shaoting knew that she might feel uncomfortable, so he explained.

However, he was secretly happy. She asked about them and that showed that she cared about him.

He also hoped that she could ask any questions she had and not keep them to herself. Men were sometimes careless and not so meticulous and would accidentally neglect her feelings.

“Yeah, you all have the same background, so it feels different from us.” Shu Pan said gloomily.

Gu Shaoting raised his eyebrows and snorted, “What’s different? Don’t let your imagination run wild.”

“Well, aren’t you going to go over and propose a toast?” Shu Pan asked.

“It depends. If they are still interested in dancing, we won’t disturb them for now.” Gu Shaoting was afraid that his stomach wouldn’t be able to take it when he thought of drinking.

“Oh.” Shu Pan wasn’t in high spirits.

Gu Shaoting looked at her and thought that she was tired. After all, she didn’t feel good about what happened tonight. She didn’t want to face everyone again.

“You should go back and rest first. I’ll go home later.” Gu Shaoting looked at the time and realized that it was getting late.

“Alright.” Shu Pan nodded in agreement. Really, she didn’t really want to go out now because she still couldn’t recover from the embarrassing incident that had just happened.

“Also, don’t think about things you shouldn’t think about. Anyway, you just have to remember that our family won’t be separated.” Gu Shaoting stood up and reached out to her.

Shu Pan placed her hand on his palm.

“I’ll send you to the door. The driver will send you back. I’ll introduce these business partners and friends to you later at our wedding.” Gu Shaoting said.

“Okay. You have to be careful yourself. Don’t drink too much. Your stomach can’t take it.” Shu Pan reminded.

After sending Shu Pan off, Gu Shaoting returned to the reception to deal with the VIPs.

When she got home, she saw that Joy had already fallen asleep. Auntie Li was still awake and was in the living room. She said, “Auntie Li, you’ve worked hard tonight.”

“What are you talking about? It’s not hard. Joy is very obedient. She fell asleep after watching television for a while,” said Auntie Li.

“Where’s Grandpa? Is he asleep too?” Grandpa was living with them now, and she was very concerned about his health.

“Master is asleep as well. The nurse has checked on him. He fell asleep after taking the medicine.” Auntie Li said dutifully.

Shu Pan nodded in relief. With Auntie Li was here, she felt much more relaxed.

Seeing that it was getting late, Shu Pan went into the bedroom to take a shower.

When she came out, she felt refreshed again. She probably wouldn’t be able to fall asleep for a while.

For some reason, she felt a little depressed and suddenly wanted to drink some wine.

She remembered that Gu Shaoting had opened a bottle of wine. She could drink a little before going to bed.

With that thought in mind, she really went over. It was red wine, but she didn’t know what year it was. She didn’t dare to touch the other whiskey. A little red wine might make her drunk.

She picked up the wine glass and poured herself a glass. She drank it. The spicy and sour taste made her frown.

Then, she poured some more. After drinking it, she really felt a little dizzy.

She returned to the bedroom and sat by the bed in a daze for a while. Her mind went blank, and then she fell asleep.

Gu Shaoting was not so lucky at the cocktail party. People kept coming to toast him, and he could not shirk them.

Charlene had always been paying attention to Gu Shaoting. She saw him send Shu Pan away and thus she stuck close to him, following him everywhere as if she were someone to Gu Shaoting.

Gu Shaoting gradually realized it and told her tactfully, but she seemed to turn a deaf ear to his words.
