The Bumpy Road of Marriage: Divorce Now, Daddy

PA Wen wondered too what Gu Tianmu was up to. No one knew what Gu Tianmu had in mind but then again, being unpredictable was typical Gu Tianmu.

“Keep an eye on him and find out what he is up to,” Gu Juexi said, frowning. Gu Tianmu had started picking on Ye Yuwei ever since he divorced his mother. To his surprise, Gu Tianmu picked on Ye Yuwei even now.

PA Wen nodded. He agreed that the chairman had picked on Ye Yuwei for too long. After all, it was Gu Juexi who had stirred up the divorce; Ye Yuwei had played no part in it at all.

Meanwhile in Gu Mansion, Ye Yuwei was tucking in Ye Xicheng when she received a call from an unknown number.

Ye Yuwei stared at the number then answered the call. “Hello, who is this?”

“It’s me, Yuwei.” A deep voice answered from the other end of the line.

Ye Yuwei paused for a second when she recognized the voice. “CEO Qian.”

“I am not CEO Qian anymore. I thought of checking in on you after wrapping things up,” Qian Yikun chuckled.

Ye Yuwei lowered her gaze as she listened to Qian Yikun’s elegant voice and said, “Thank you for everything, and I’m sorry for misunderstanding you—”

“I should be the one apologizing. I did approach you to push Gu Juexi to make his move and it was not very ethical,” said Qian Yikun sincerely.

Ye Yuwei burst into laughter at his words. “Isn’t CEO Qian being too confident? Why would you think that Gu Juexi would pick a fight for me?”

“Ye Yuwei is Gu Juexi’s soft spot, the whole world knows it,” Qian Yikun said in amusement.

Ye Yuwei was Gu Juexi’s soft spot and the whole world knew.

Except her.

“Yuwei, I am going to be transferred back to China soon. Can I buy you a meal before then?” Qian Yikun asked suddenly.

Ye Yuwei wondered why he would buy her a meal but she didn’t think too hard about it. “Of course, Gu Juexi should be discharged by the time you get back. Let us buy the meal instead.”

The person on the other end of the line fell silent and so did Ye Yuwei.

“You got quicker at turning me down, Yuwei,” Qian Yikun chuckled and Ye Yuwei lowered her head, saying nothing.

“Alright then, I shall buy you and Gu Juexi a meal when I get back. He saved my life after all,” Qian Yikun murmured and ended the call not long after.

Ye Yuwei heaved a sigh and put her phone on the table.

Ye Yuwei’s children were sleeping by her side. She reached out to take the box and opened it to look at the photos inside.

Ye Yuwei was Gu Juexi’s soft spot and the whole world knew.

Did that make her lucky or unlucky?

Inside the box was Gu Juexi’s sadness and desperation.

Ye Yuwei couldn’t deny that this box was the reason why she decided to give Gu Juexi one last chance.

“Mommy,” Ye Xicheng woke from his sleep and got up to snuggle in Ye Yuwei’s arms.

Ye Yuwei looked down at her son while patting him gently. “Did I wake you up?”

“Xicheng will stay with Mommy forever, no matter what.” Ye Xicheng promised firmly.
