Chapter 397 - 397: I Have Your Back

A pitiful person could also have hateful characteristics. It was not that Shu Pan did not MO Lan her a chance, but MO Lan just kept bullying her.

Shu Pan was at her limit now. She was not God and couldn’t have mercy on those who had hurt her time and time again.

So, she glanced at MO Lan before she gently retracted her leg. MO Lan’s hands were grabbing at nothing now.

MO Lan saw that Shu Pan was unmoved, so she started wailing uncontrollably on the ground like a shrew.

Everyone sighed when they saw this.

Gu Shaoting simply frowned.

Mr. Zhang’s expression also changed as he quickly called the hotel to send in their security guards to escort MO Lan out.

The ballroom quieted down in an instant and Director Wang asked everyone to return to their seats. It was bad enough that their company dinner turned into such a mess.

Gu Shaoting held Shu Pan’s hand to leave but the moment Shu Pan took a step, she cried out in pain from her sprained right ankle.

“What’s wrong?” Gu Shaoting asked nervously.

“I think I sprained my ankle. It hurts.” Shu Pan said pitifully with watery eyes.

“Are you still going to act tough? Why didn’t you tell me and let me handle it?” Gu Shaoting said unhappily. His heart ached terribly seeing her in so much pain.

“I don’t want to bother you with these trivial matters.” Shu Pan sniffed.

“Matters concerning you are never trivial. ” As soon as Gu Shaoting finished, he bent over and scooped Shu Pan up in front of everyone. He then strode out of the ballroom ignoring everyone around them.

Shu Pan didn’t expect Gu Shaoting to carry her. She thought he was a rather reserved person who would never do such a thing in public. It was really unexpected.

Her face suddenly turned red as she buried her head in the nook of Gu Shaoting’s neck. His unique masculine scent attacked her olfactory senses, confusing her.

She secretly looked up at him. His handsome face was still calm but his messy footsteps revealed his anxiety.

Shu Pan never thought that she would be in such a situation with him. Real life was indeed unpredictable.

It wasn’t until Gu Shaoting carried Shu Pan out of the hotel ballroom that the people in the room came to their senses. Everyone’s eyes were filled with surprise.

Was that their aloof and cold CEO? Everyone was stunned.

Mr. Zhang looked at everyone and said, “Please keep your eyes open when you want to offend someone in the future. You can’t afford to offend everyone.” With that, Mr. Zhang left.

Only then did everyone realize that they had been blind. Fortunately, they hadn’t done anything unforgivable to Shu Pan.

MO Lan wasn’t so lucky though. Now that she had been fired, she probably wouldn’t find such a good job in the future.

After all, like a shadow that eclipsed the sunshine of benevolence, notoriety always cast a long and dark pall over the brightest acts of goodwill.

What happened here today would probably be known throughout the industry very soon.

What did the CEO say just now?

He referred to Shu Pan as his precious. Who would dare to offend her from now

Tang Wei’s jaw dropped the furthest. She had yet to recover from her shock.

She was still looking in the direction they left with her eyes widened when she muttered to herself, “So, Shu Pan is the CEO’s girlfriend. They had been too low profile! Thank goodness I’m with camp Shu Pan. MO Lan only has herself to blame. She wouldn’t be in trouble if she hadn’t slandered Shu Pan.”

Tang Wei had no sympathy for MO Lan. MO Lan didn’t deserve sympathy. She was simply getting her retribution.

Everyone broke out in cold sweat after they recovered from their shock, especially those who joined in the scolding. They felt guilty too..
