The Bumpy Road of Marriage: Divorce Now, Daddy

Panda Novel

Ye Yuwei nodded at his instructions. She did not know the purpose of the documents, but Gu Juexi always had his own objectives in everything he did, so she simply obeyed.

“Daddy.”

“Yes, dear?” Gu Juexi looked at his daughter.

“Daddy, can I invite Brother Yuan Mo over to our house to play, please?” Xixi asked as she gnawed on the drumstick.

Gu Juexi frowned and answered, “I’m sorry, dear, but I’m afraid Yuan Mo cannot come because of his injuries. He has to stay at his house and rest.”

Ye Yuwei chuckled in amusement and observed his acting.

Xixi pouted in disappointment but then said enthusiastically, “Then we’ll have him over when he gets better.”

Gu Juexi was disappointed as well, for his daughter no longer belonged to him alone.

On the contrary, Ye Yuwei was delighted.

It was quite late by the time they finished their dinner, but since both children had had their naps on the flight back, they were not sleepy. Xixi was playing with her toys happily in her toy room, while Ye Xicheng babysat his sister, as usual.

“Mommy, I want to sleep with you tonight,” Ye Xicheng looked at his mommy and said in a serious tone when Ye Yuwei entered the toy room.

Gu Juexi who had followed her into the room gave his son a dirty look and sulked. Why did his wife have to sleep with that little monster?

Ye Yuwei’s motherly instincts could sense that Ye Xicheng was upset because of Yuan Mo’s incident, so she obliged.

“Mommy is mine.” Holding her doll in one hand, Xixi held out the other hand to hug Ye Yuwei. “Can you please not snatch Mommy away?”

Ye Yuwei scoffed in a giggle, “Why are you so bossy? Alright, kids, time for bed.”

She carried her daughter and took her back to her bedroom.

Ye Xicheng hurriedly followed his mommy.

Gu Juexi—crossing his arms, leaning against the door and smiling deviously—watched his son walking past him and followed him out the toy room.

“Little monster,” called Gu Juexi. When Ye Xicheng stopped, Gu Juexi walked to him, stooped down, held out his hand and growled, “Give me the divorce papers.”

Ye Xicheng looked at his father and said stubbornly, “Nope.” Then he turned around and ran away.

“Hey, you little monster!” Gu Juexi watched him run away and massaged his forehead helplessly. His hands were tied as long as the kid had the divorce papers in his possession.

Gu Juexi returned to his room to read his documents. A while later, as he checked the time on his phone, it was already midnight but Ye Yuwei had yet to return to their room. He placed the documents down on his desk and walked to the room next to theirs.

The people inside were already fast asleep when he opened the door.

Gu Juexi sighed defeatedly. His woman was thoroughly devoted to their son.

He walked towards the bed in the dim room and picked Ye Yuwei up carefully.

“Shh—” Gu Juexi stopped her from talking as he carried her out of the room.

The almighty Gu Juexi had definitely fallen from grace if he had to fight for a woman with his own son.

Gu Juexi carried Ye Yuwei back to their room. He put her down gently on the bed and started kissing her lips.

Ye Yuwei pushed him away and said drowsily, “I’m sleepy.”

Gu Juexi ignored the statement and stopped his kisses as he was pushed away but went to her pajama buttons instead. He pleaded desperately by her ear, “Just once, please?” His action was completely contrasting his verbal pleading though.
