The Bumpy Road of Marriage: Divorce Now, Daddy

Ye Xicheng didn’t understand why the old meatball smiled. He thought he looked silly.

“I need to go to the washroom,” said Gu Juexi monotonously and ruffled his son’s hair with the heart of a father for the first time.

Ye Xicheng’s mind went blank for a second and he felt a bit stupid.

Gu Juexi looked at his son running away awkwardly and somehow found him adorable.

Gu Juexi was still sulking when Ye Yuwei got home from work. Ye Yuwei knew very well what it was about but couldn’t be bothered to comfort her jealous husband. She came home with the luggage she brought back from the hotel. She was planning to stay with Xiao Yaojing initially, but it seemed impossible for her to do so now. Ye Yuwei handed her luggage to Butler Kim and went to the dining room after thanking him.

Gu Juexi pulled a long face throughout dinner which Wen Jie pretended not to see.

Ye Yuwei sat down next to Gu Juexi after washing her hands and began chatting with Wen Jie.

“It’s better to have a job. You would be bored at home,” said Wen Jie as she helped Ye Yuwei with the dishes. “Was there a lot of work today?”

“Not really, there were only a few documents to look at,” said Ye Yuwei as she watched her son eat. She couldn’t stop thinking about the question in her head.

Wen Jie didn’t ask anything else about Ye Yuwei’s work after that.

After dinner, Ye Yuwei remained unusually quiet and Gu Juexi who had been observing Ye Yuwei began to feel that something was wrong.

Ye Yuwei didn’t even nag at Gu Juexi when Ye Xicheng complained that Gu Juexi didn’t stay in bed. All she did was glare at Gu Juexi, then she took her two children to the bathroom for a bath.

Gu Juexi squinted at Ye Yuwei who was walking to the bathroom and was certain that something was wrong, but he had a meeting soon and thus didn’t follow them upstairs.

It was already half-past ten when Ye Yuwei tucked the two kids in, and Gu Juexi was still in the study. He had to read and sign every single company document that needed a signature since PA Wen was not around, and he had around ten more documents left.

Ye Yuwei noticed that Gu Juexi was not in the bedroom went straight to the study.

Gu Juexi was still in the middle of the video conference. He looked lively and appeared to be in a good mood judging from how he hadn’t lost his temper with anyone yet.

Ye Yuwei stood by the door and looked at the man who was holding his hands and paying attention to the video conference, and had to admit that Gu Juexi had a physical fitness that was above average.

Once the video conference ended, Gu Juexi turned to look at Ye Yuwei who was still standing by the door. “Ask what’s on your mind. You have been staring at me the whole night.”

Ye Yuwei was not surprised at his deduction. She entered the study and closed the door behind her, then placed her hands on the table Gu Juexi was sitting at. “Did you send PA Wen to Feng County?”

Gu Juexi’s mind went blank for a second. His expression darkened, and he began to think that sending PA Wen to Feng County for only one week was too short.

“Xiao Yaojing told you?” Gu Juexi leaned back in his chair and looked at Ye Yuwei sitting across the table.

“Never mind who told me. Did you send PA Wen to Feng County?” Ye Yuwei sounded hasty as she asked him again.

Gu Juexi remained seated in his chair indifferently and beckoned Ye Yuwei over with a finger.

Ye Yuwei frowned and got up to go to Gu Juexi. The moment Ye Yuwei was right next to him, he reached out and pulled her onto his lap.
