The Bumpy Road of Marriage: Divorce Now, Daddy

Xiao Yaojing was stunned for a few seconds before she finally continued eating again. “What you said about Gu Juexi was more realistic than what you are saying now. You’re saying your brother doesn’t want to look for a girlfriend because of me? That is as plausible as saying your Papa Nalan is Yezi’s husband.”

Wen Shan rolled her eyes silently. “Just remember what you promised me. That woman has been calling my brother, so come to my school with me when we go back.”

‘That woman has been calling Wen Tao?’

Xiao Yaojing stabbed her chopsticks into her bowl unconsciously. What was wrong with Wen Tao? Why would he call that woman?

How frustrating!

Meanwhile in B City, the sun had risen and Gu Juexi could start eating again.

Ye Yuwei was reluctant to entertain Gu Juexi after he had spoken to her so harshly. Furthermore, she wanted to find out the current situation of Gu International before Gu Juexi got out of bed so that she could give him the most accurate analysis when he made his final strike.

“Sister-in-law, Sister-in-law…” A nurse ran up to her anxiously. “Doctor Wu asked if you could go over, Boss is throwing a tantrum.”

Ye Yuwei quickly put down the document in her hand and grabbed her walking stick. What was wrong with that man so early in the morning?

Ye Yuwei could hear the commotion before she even entered the ward.

“Don’t even think about saying no, you rascal. I am only here to inform you,” said the old captain angrily as he paced the ward.

“Are you going to force me to do things that I don’t want to do? Fat chance!” Gu Juexi had recovered well, and could speaker loudly in his usual annoying tone.

“Do you know how many would die for this position?” The old captain demanded angrily.

“Let them have the position then.” Gu Juexi was not moved at all.

Ye Yuwei was glad that she wasn’t the only one who felt that she couldn’t communicate normally with Gu Juexi. She pushed the door open and entered the ward, nodding at the Captain.

Gu Juexi narrowed his eyes at Ye Yuwei and did not say a word.

“You came just on time, young lady. Talk to this stubborn donkey for me,” the old captain growled, pointing at Gu Juexi.

Ye Yuwei felt that she would never have the guts to call Gu Juexi a stubborn donkey.

“Captain, this…”

“Come here, Ye Yuwei,” Gu Juexi said quietly.

Ye Yuwei went to him obediently with the help of her walking stick.

“Even a broken leg couldn’t stop you from going around? What kept you from staying in your ward?” Gu Juexi asked and held her hand, looking at her leg when she came nearer.

“Can you shut up?” Ye Yuwei barked.

Gu Juexi opened his mouth and wanted to say something.

“Shut up!” Ye Yuwei snarled and Gu Juexi’s mouth snapped shut immediately.

She couldn’t even say what she wanted to nowadays!

The captain immediately felt that his day had just brightened. “Serves you right, you sly fox. Well done, young lady!”

Ye Yuwei could feel Gu Juexi pinching her palm but she couldn’t be bothered.

“I am sorry, Captain, but Gu Juexi is not well enough to take this position. He knows that you mean well but he did not do what he did for the badges.”

The captain frowned. “I owe him this, young lady. Don’t you know that…”

“You are too long-winded, old man,” Gu Juexi interrupted the old captain, “I am telling you, I won’t change my mind even if you come here a hundred times.” Gu Juexi intervened again when the old captain was about to pass the badges to Ye Yuwei. He swung his hand, causing the badges to fall onto the floor.

“You rascal…” The old captain cursed, while Ye Xicheng whom Butler Kim had brought to the hospital picked up the badges.
