The Bumpy Road of Marriage: Divorce Now, Daddy

Before Ye Yuwei could call Nalan Chunbo, her phone was taken away by Gu Juexi, who was in the middle of a conference call. He slid her phone into his pocket and went back to his study before she could react.

Ye Yuwei looked at the man’s right leg and was in awe at the lengths he would go to for his looks. Although he wasn’t shot at any vital points, it was incredible that it looked so normal.

Ye Yuwei was reluctant to intrude and ask for her phone while Gu Juexi was on a conference call. Still, could this man predict the future? How did he know what she wanted to do?

“The jewellery is here, Wei Wei. Please see if you like them,” said Wen Jie loudly from downstairs.

Ye Yuwei responded and went downstairs while carrying Xixi, who had pounced onto her lap.

Ye Yuwei’s jewellery had been chosen by Wen Jie and Gu Tianmu: a diamond-studded necklace, two jade bangles, a set of red diamond jewellery and some earrings to match.

Ye Yuwei recognised the red diamond jewellery set; She and Xiao Yaojing had seen it before during their university times. She remembered clearly that the selling price was over 70 million, and she had complained to Xiao Yaojing that she didn’t understand how rich people thought.

And right now, that very set of red diamond jewellery was in front of her own eyes.

“Father, Mother…”

“We asked Yaojing before we chose this. She told us that you love this set of jewellery, so your father got someone to find it. You have a very fair complexion and red jewellery should suit you best,” Wen Jie picked up the necklace and said while placing it around Ye Yuwei’s neck.

Ye Yuwei’s lips twitched when she heard how Xiao Yaojing went for the most expensive jewellery without holding back.

“Thank you, Father.”

Gu Tianmu remained emotionless. It would be impossible for him to be gentle to Ye Yuwei, and Ye Yuwei would want Gu Tianmu to be nice to her.

“These fine ice seed purple jade bangles would go well with the purple cheongsam. And it comes with this,” Wen Jie took out a pair of ice seed purple jade earrings from the jewellery box that had a purple glow under the sunlight.

Ye Yuwei’s nose began to burn as she looked at Wen Jie matching the jewellery for her. Although her own mother wasn’t doing this or preparing the dowry for her, the Gu Family had been treating her like their own daughter and had prepared everything she needed for the wedding for her.

Wen Jie was shocked to see Ye Yuwei’s eyes turning glassy. “I have always treated you as my own daughter, Wei Wei, and I am grateful that you have come back,” she said gently as she put down the necklace and held Ye Yuwei’s hands.

“Thank you, Mother.” Ye Yuwei tried to hold back her tears and reached out to hug Wen Jie.

Although she had informed Bai Ying about the venue and time of her wedding, she was certain that Bai Ying would not attend her wedding. She didn’t like occasions like that, and she didn’t like Gu Juexi.

“If your mother attends the wedding…” Wen Jie patted Ye Yuwei’s back gently.

“She might not like the occasion,” Ye Yuwei took a deep breath and interrupted Wen Jie. “I might not be bringing in any dowry, Mother,” Ye Yuwei continued with her head lowered and her feet fidgeting uncomfortably.

The Gu Family had prepared everything well, but she remembered how Mr. Xiao walked Xiao Yaojing down the aisle to PA Wen’s side during her wedding and was envious of it.

She didn’t have a father, and her mother would not be attending her wedding.

“You are the best that anyone could ever ask for, silly girl.” Wen Jie hugged Ye Yuwei tightly and comforted her smilingly.
