Let’s Divorce As Agreed-Chapter 1085 - 1084: Envy
Chapter 1085 -1084: Envy
Xia Xiaoqiao was not satisfied and then looked up in that direction again.
This time she seemed to hear the sound of her own heart breaking. Seeing is believing, and indeed, some things are only understood when witnessed firsthand.
If you were to say Mr. Gu did not love Mrs. Gu, it really seemed a bit far-fetched.
That kind of look in his eyes, if it wasn’t love, probably no one would believe.
Upon closer observation, she didn’t find Mrs. Gu to possess any extraordinary attributes.
Quite ordinary. She wasn’t the type who dazzles at first glance, but the more you looked, the more appealing she became.
...
However, her demeanor was indeed very gentle, clearly that of a well-bred lady.
She couldn’t help but compare herself to her. She was younger, had a better figure, even though her skin was fair, it definitely wasn’t as smooth and supple as her own.
She was about the same height as herself, her facial features not as striking as her own, at least that’s how she felt.
Xia Xiaoqiao was probably resentful, thus she kept searching for flaws in Shu Pan.
She occasionally looked over, seeing Mr. Gu continuously watching her eat, himself barely touching his chopsticks.
Shu Pan was eating somewhat hastily, getting sauce on her lips when Gu Shaoting took the napkin beside him and casually wiped her mouth as if no one else was around.
His touch was very gentle, as if he feared hurting her, treating her as if she were a delicate treasure.
Xia Xiaoqiao really stared in fascination; she truly wished she could replace Shu Pan as if Mr. Gu was wiping her own mouth.

How could she not be envious? The men she had dated only saw her as a cash cow, never once offering a bit of tenderness.
So observing this scene, her eyes nearly popped out, especially considering who Mr. Gu was— a prominent business magnate, yet he treated his wife this tenderly.
They must have been marriage veterans by now, yet Mr. Gu still treated her as if they were in their honeymoon phase.
“Xiao Qiao, do you know them?” Fang Min asked.
“Oh, I’ve read about them in the paper, seems like the man’s a CEO?” Xia Xiaoqiao didn’t want her to know that this was her boss.
“Wow, handsome, rich, gentle, truly perfect.” Fang Min’s eyes widened as she spoke. Such people seemed to exist only in TV dramas; meeting one in real life was incredibly rare.
“Yes, he is perfect, to be his lover must be such a blissful thing,” Xia Xiaoqiao looked at them, then sighed as she spoke.
“Yes, surely,” Fang Min thought that woman was really lucky.
The two of them continued talking about Gu Shaoting and Shu Pan until they left.
Gu Shaoting paid the bill, then holding Shu Pan’s hand, left, which made Xia Xiaoqiao pause for a moment again.
That night, Xia Xiaoqiao felt something different.
So Mr. Gu was this tender. The way he treated his wife was truly charming.
He had also asked her to help order flowers today; it was either an anniversary or Mrs. Gu’s birthday.
Truly a good man, busy with myriad duties yet still mindful of such special days.
Xia Xiaoqiao watched their departing figures, deep in thought.
She now had an idea in mind, more clear about what she wanted.
“Alright, Xiao Qiao, don’t look anymore. Such men are too far out of our reach; let’s just live our lives realistically,” Fang Min felt that the perfect man could only appear in dreams.
“Is it really that far out of reach? Hah, I don’t think so,” Xia Xiaoqiao picked up her cup and slowly took a sip of water.
