The Bumpy Road of Marriage: Divorce Now, Daddy

Ye Yuwei was more relaxed now that Gu Juexi was home. She didn’t have to rush back and forth or take care of him round the clock since there were maids in the house.

So after much consideration, she decided to go back to the workforce.

“You? Go to work?” Gu Juexi scoffed as he checked his documents. He glanced at Ye Yuwei who was standing by the bed. “Don’t be silly.”

“I don’t have anything to do in the house. Also, the bank has several major issues to handle recently, so I’ll just go back to resume my work,” suggested Ye Yuwei.

Pondering, Gu Juexi put down the documents and gestured for Ye Yuwei to come closer.

Ye Yuwei stooped down curiously.

“Can you both talk properly, please?” Ye Xicheng questioned as he played with his Lego on the floor, not even lifting his head to look at them.

Gu Juexi narrowed his eyes in frustration.

Why was that little monster still here?

Ye Yuwei coughed lightly, returning to a standing position.

“Manager Ouyang is no longer with the bank, and you don’t know the current managers. It isn’t so nice to put you into the bank right now,” said Gu Juexi seriously.

“Well, you didn’t object when I was put in that time,” Ye Yuwei laughed.

Now, there were two things that Gu Juexi feared the most: one was his dear son, the other was most definitely ‘that time’ mentioned by Ye Yuwei.

“How is there nothing to do at home? I thought the two kids would have consumed all of your time.” To be honest, Gu Juexi didn’t want Ye Yuwei out of the house, out of his sight.

“Gu Juexi, if you say it that way, the only other way is Qian Feng Enterprise. After all, I am—”

“Ye Yuwei,” Gu Juexi frowned.

Ye Yuwei stared at Gu Juexi in satisfaction. Gu Juexi gritted his teeth, picked up the phone and informed the bank staff regarding the work matter.

Ye Yuwei was grinning and Gu Juexi was sulking. Even his freedom of speech had been taken away from him.

Nonetheless, he wouldn’t dare fight for the so-called freedom of speech for now.

Little Ye Xicheng was at ease now that Ye Yuwei succeeded in striving for the opportunity to work. It made things easier if Mommy was out of the house.

“But I don’t want Mommy to go to work.” Xixi hugged Ye Yuwei and wouldn’t let go. She wanted her mommy to play with her.

Ye Yuwei looked at her daughter who had come out of nowhere. “You can play with your brother.”

“But I want to be able to see you,” said little Xixi sincerely, “If Xixi doesn’t see Mommy, Xixi will panic.”

Panic?

Ye Yuwei was speechless. What would she panic about?

“Xixi doesn’t want Mommy to work, Xixi wants Mommy to be at home with Xixi,” Xixi tugged her mommy’s sleeve and wouldn’t let go. She looked at her mommy with big watery eyes.

Gu Juexi was appreciative of her efforts. This was why daughters were a blessing. The type of species that was called a son, however, shouldn’t even exist.

Ye Xicheng saw the profound feeling in his daddy’s eyes and smirked, playing with his Lego.

Ye Yuwei crouched down and looked her daughter in the eyes. “If Mommy is home, you can only eat half an ice cream, you can only drink hot milk, you cannot have candy, and—”

“Bye bye, Mommy.”

Ye Yuwei snorted, having predicted this outcome.

Where is your panic now?

Ye Xicheng lifted his head to look at his sister helplessly. Even if Mommy was not around, he was, and as such, the rules and conditions were still applicable. Her intelligence was indeed inadequate.

Gu Juexi smacked his forehead and sighed. His daughter was not stupid, she was pure and innocent!

Yes, that’s right! His daughter was indeed too pure and innocent, the polar opposite of that little monster.
