The Bumpy Road of Marriage: Divorce Now, Daddy

The first thing that Gu Juexi saw when he went downstairs was Xixi reaching out for him and crying “daddy”.

Ye Yuwei continued to cut up the noodles in Xixi’s bowl and put it in front of her without looking up. She then went to help her son with his lunch.

Gu Juexi glanced at Ye Yuwei and sat down beside Xixi, picking her little bowl up to start feeding her.

Ye Yuwei didn’t have to handle her daughter when Gu Juexi was around, and her son was the kind that she would never have to be worried about.

“Have the invitation cards for the launching of Xi Wei Resort been sent out?” Gu Juexi asked suddenly.

“How would I know? That was not part of my job. Also, wouldn’t Mr. Gu be the first to get an invitation card if they had been sent?” Ye Yuwei asked as she ate.

Gu Juexi glanced at Ye Yuwei and silently called her a prickly little cactus.

“Have you been to the Bai family’s fortress before?” Gu Juexi asked abruptly.

Ye Yuwei’s hand that was holding a dish shuddered. When she looked up, Gu Juexi had carried on feeding his daughter, as if the question was asked casually to start a conversation.

The last time she had been to the Bai family’s fortress was six years ago. She has never been there again since.

She was unconscious during her time at the fortress and had never left the room that she was in. The only thing she remembered of the Bai family was a distant figure and nothing else.

“I forgot,” Ye Yuwei said quietly. “Why are you asking?”

Ye Yuwei suddenly remembered the conversation between Yu Jiangqing and Gu Juexi that PA Wen told her. “It is not easy to get into the Bai family’s fortress,” said Ye Yuwei as she looked up.

Gu Juexi raised his brows. “Not for me,” he said emotionlessly.

“The people from the Bai family wish they could kill you,” Ye Yuwei said through clenched teeth.

“And they are not capable of that,” said Gu Juexi carelessly and continued feeding his daughter after picking out the carrots that Xixi hated.

Ye Yuwei looked at what Gu Juexi was doing in shock. She had tried so hard to make Xixi stop being picky with her food and Gu Juexi was now making the bad habit come back.

Xixi ate while swinging her little legs. She loved it when her daddy fed her.

Ye Xicheng looked at Gu Juexi and said, “Xixi needs nutrition and being picky with her food is not going to give her that.”

“Brother…” Xixi reached out and tried to stop her brother.

Gu Juexi did not know what to reply and Ye Yuwei let out a snort and waited to see what he would do next.

“No no no, carrots are for rabbits, Xixi won’t eat!” Xixi swung her little legs harder in protest.

“You call yourself a father? Don’t you know what is best for Xixi?” Ye Xicheng said as he put a spoonful of carrots in Xixi’s bowl.

“I don’t love you anymore Brother,” said Xixi sulkily.

Ye Xicheng stroked his sister’s hair smilingly. “I will keep loving you. I would be worried if you fell sick again, unlike someone…”

‘That little bastard.’ Knowing that the little meatball was referring to him, Gu Juexi glared at Ye Xicheng.

Gu Juexi heaved a sigh and began feeding Xixi carrots. His son made it sounded like he didn’t care about his daughter’s health.

Xixi looked at her brother and let out a soft humph as she frowned and ate the carrots.

Ye Xicheng watched her eat the carrots and smiled lovingly. Being a good brother did not necessarily mean spoiling his little sister.

“By the way, how did you reunite with Qian Yikun?” Gu Juexi asked suddenly. “I mean, how did you get into his company?”
