Let’s Divorce As Agreed-Chapter 723 - : Stay Away From Me
Chapter 723: Stay Away From Me
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Since the breakup, Charlene had been keeping a distance from men. The pain she endured in that relationship raised her standards and made her more vigilant. So people talked behind her back, calling her arrogant miss.
But when she met Gu Shaoting, everything felt different from the first sight of him.
Seeing him made her heart race involuntarily. She finally understood this feeling as a flutter of the heart. The infatuation she experienced before wasn’t real love.
Gu Shaoting entered her life, and she finally managed to shake off the hurt Qin Zhen had caused her. She thought she would never see Qin Zhen again in her life.
Little did she know, life is full of surprises, and after some twists and turns, she met Qin Zhen again. That night at the banquet, she pretended not to know him, but now he appeared before her, and something intimate had happened between them.
Charlene finally snapped out of her memories, looking at Qin Zhen with resentment. “You’d better disappear from my sight within 5 minutes.”
“Charlene, I know I was wrong. Please give me another chance,” Qin Zhen persisted.
“Sorry, we’re not suitable,” Charlene shook her head.
“let’s get dressed and have a good chat later,” Qin Zhen suggested.
After saying that, he picked up his clothes from the chair and put them on. The scenes from last night played vividly in her mind. Charlene’s face quickly turned red, then pale again.
The wind lifted the white curtains by the bed, and a ray of sunlight fell on it, making her look languid.
Wrapping herself in the sheet, she retreated to the bathroom, changed her clothes, and came out without saying a word. She just grabbed her bag and yesterday’s trophies and went home.
When Qin Zhen realized it, she was already far away. He could only smile bitterly.
Charlene had no intention of being alone with him in the same room.
Because she didn’t return home all night, John was very worried.
Seeing her father and remembering what happened yesterday, Charlene couldn’t help but burst into tears in John’s arms.
How could John bear to see his daughter so heartbroken?
“Sweetheart, what’s wrong?” John patted her shoulder, asking with concern.
“Daddy, Brother Gu doesn’t like me. He won’t divorce,” Charlene said with a tearful voice, still sniffling as she spoke.
“Then Daddy will introduce someone better to you,” John comforted.
“No, I only like Brother Gu,” Charlene countered.
John furrowed his brow for a moment, then spoke, “If that’s what you want, Daddy will do his best to fight for it for you.”
“Really?” Charlene suddenly looked up at John. “I knew Daddy loves me the most.”
Finally, she smiled through her tears.
She knew that with Dad’s intervention, things would be much easier.
“Don’t cry anymore. Crying over a man is really embarrassing for me,” John said grumpily.
With John’s assurance, Charlene’s mood finally calmed down a bit.

Gu Shaoting had originally planned to return home after a week on his business trip, but now it had been almost half a month.
Shu Pan’s heart had been uneasy because she knew things were definitely not as simple as Gu Shaoting said; he just didn’t want to worry her.
Compared to before, she felt much better now.
Auntie Li helped take care of Joy, so she had fewer worries. The only thing on her mind was Gu Shaoting, but she couldn’t ask him.
Even if she did, he would just brush her off.
Looking at the time, there was still a week until she reached three months of pregnancy, and it would be time for her prenatal checkup. She wondered if Gu Shaoting would be back by then because he didn’t want to miss anything about this baby. He had promised to accompany her to the hospital when the time came.
