The Bumpy Road of Marriage: Divorce Now, Daddy

Panda Novel

Ye Yuwei went on for a while and realized that Gu Tianmu probably hated her a lot since he was not giving her any response at all.

Ye Yuwei left the ward only when Wen Jie and Butler Kim arrived.

Gu Juexi was still sitting on the bench outside the ward with his head lowered, like a child who had done something wrong.

“What’s wrong?” Wen Jie looked at Gu Juexi who was acting weird and asked Ye Yuwei.

“It’s okay now, Mother,” Ye Yuwei comforted Wen Jie. She knew that it is almost impossible for Gu Juexi to speak now.

It’s okay now? So something had happened last night?

“Go back and get some rest. I bet you didn’t sleep at all last night,” Wen Jie frowned and said to Gu Juexi who was still sitting on the bench in the same position.

Ye Yuwei looked at Gu Juexi and nodded at him. Gu Juexi got up from the bench and walked towards the exit without a word.

Wen Jie held Ye Yuwei’s wrist. There were things that she had not said out loud, but Wen Jie knew that Ye Yuwei understood them all.

Gu Juexi looked up at the sky and pondered as he left the hospital with Ye Yuwei.

“Tell him if he meant so much to you,” Ye Yuwei said softly as she stood beside Gu Juexi.

Gu Juexi lowered his head with a weird expression, as if what Ye Yuwei said was utter nonsense.

“I will send you back. I have a meeting later,” Gu Juexi said, wanting to send Ye Yuwei home.

“We have a big case going on at the bank too, so send me there,” said Ye Yuwei.

“Am I not providing enough for you to skip work?” Gu Juexi frowned and asked.

“I have been skipping work a lot lately. I can’t be so wilful just because I am your wife, not to mention that I am the one in charge of the case. It is a case that is worth millions, so I don’t trust the others to do it,” Ye Yuwei held Gu Juexi’s arm and said smilingly.

Happy that Ye Yuwei had called herself ‘his wife’, Gu Juexi agreed to send her to the bank.

“Get some rest in the office after you’re done.” Gu Juexi had his personal resting room set up at the bank when he used to work there, and the room had been there ever since.

Ye Yuwei promised that she would get some rest, and was secretly impressed at how good Gu Juexi was at acting when she looked at him being so perfectly normal.

Gu Juexi sent Ye Yuwei to the bank before going for his own meeting. Ye Yuwei did have an ongoing big case with the headquarters of Gu Enterprise, so she would be dealing with Xiao Yaojing for the case.

Xiao Yaojing who was preparing for her wedding was glowing with so much happiness that Ye Yuwei got jealous of her when they had lunch together in the afternoon.

“Why are you looking at me like you were tortured all night?” Xiao Yaojing looked at Ye Yuwei and asked after ordering their food.

“Because I was tortured all night.”

“Tut-tut. Looks like Mr. Gu was quite rough.”

“No! Gu Tianmu was sent to the emergency department last night and we waited all night outside the operation theatre,” Ye Yuwei rolled her eyes and asked, “why are you rushing your wedding anyway? Don’t you want to wait for Gu Juexi and I?”

“Nope. To not be compared to you and Gu Juexi, our wedding has to be before yours,” said Xiao Yaojing teasingly, “also, I have been dying to get married. I would be old by the time your Gu Juexi proposes, not to mention to get married.”

Ye Yuwei fell silent when she realized that she couldn’t argue with that.

“Do you really want to get married that much?” asked Ye Yuwei scornfully.

“What would you know since this is your second marriage,” Xiao Yaojing scoffed.

Ye Yuwei didn’t know what to say. Were Xiao Yaojing and Gu Juexi related by any chance?
