Xixi looked around a few times, then snuggled back into the quilt bedding, her lips curved downwards.
Ye Yuwei didn’t understand what was wrong, but she also knew that Xixi didn’t just suddenly get up. Rather, she was really awake.
Ye Xicheng was still asleep so Ye Yuwei pulled Xixi into her arms. “Did you have a nightmare?”
Xixi twisted her small body, as if she didn’t want to let her mommy hold her. “I want Daddy,” Xixi whispered.
Ye Yuwei hesitated and looked at Xixi who was about to cry. ‘So she was looking for her daddy just now and because she didn’t find him, she became disappointed.’
Ye Yuwei felt as if her heart was being torn apart, causing her chest to ache.
‘Presumably, the Gu Juexi of that age had also felt a similar disappointment.’
Unfortunately, Gu Tianmu was not Gu Juexi. Gu Tianmu was really heartless to Gu Juexi.
They were both fathers, but Ye Yuwei had to admit that Gu Juexi did love both Xixi and Ye Xicheng wholeheartedly.
He seemed to be giving his children all the fatherly love that had been missing from his own childhood.
“Daddy will be here once it’s daybreak,” Ye Yuwei whispered comfortingly.
“Why can’t Mommy and Daddy be together?” Xixi asked seriously, turning her small body to face Ye Yuwei.
Ye Yuwei thought, ‘this is probably an inquiry from the depths of her soul.’
“Xixi, there are still some problems between Mommy and Daddy so we can’t be together now, but this does not prevent Mommy and Daddy from loving you and your big brother,” Ye Yuwei continued to speak softly, not wanting to use the words “you’re still young” to dismiss her daughter’s question.
“Then Xixi can help Mommy and Daddy solve the problems, or else big brother can. Since big brother is so awesome, he must be able to.” Xixi immediately said.
Ye Yuwei looked at her daughter and burst out laughing. Having such a daughter, what else could she say?
Ye Yuwei kissed her daughter’s little head. “This matter can’t be solved by others. It must be solved by Mommy and Daddy on our own.”
After Ye Yuwei finished speaking, Xixi’s expression became miserable again.
Ye Yuwei continued to calm her daughter until she slowly fell asleep. Ye Yuwei heaved a sigh of relief, then got out of bed and went to wash up.
PA Wen and Gu Juexi came to pick them up at around seven o’clock. Once Xixi knew that her daddy had come over, she became excited and immediately wanted to drag her brother downstairs.
Ye Xicheng glared at his sister from time to time. ‘What happened to the agreement that big brother is the most important?’
That little traitor—she really infuriated him.
There weren’t many of Ye Yuwei’s things; mainly the things were for the two children. Since there was no knowing how many days they would be gone, she had brought slightly more clothes for them. In total, they had brought two suitcases downstairs.
Throughout the entire time, Gu Juexi did not get out of the car.
When Nalan Chunbo sent Ye Yuwei downstairs, he scoffed while PA Wen was putting the suitcases inside the trunk of the car. “This kind of man can still get a wife, it is really a wonder of the world.”
PA Wen closed the trunk and looked at Nalan Chunbo. ‘Cousin-in-law, I completely agree. What you said is totally true.’
He also thought that the CEO having a wife was an absolute wonder of the world.
Ye Yuwei was speechless.
Meanwhile, Xixi had already thrown herself into Gu Juexi’s embrace. Ye Yuwei then went to the front passenger seat instinctively.
Gu Juexi was holding his daughter’s small frame while he looked at Ye Yuwei’s silhouette in displeasure.
Ye Xicheng climbed into the car and cast an uninterested glance at the old meatball.
Gu Juexi finally looked ahead, then reached out and closed the car door on his son’s side. He secured the door’s lock, seemingly afraid that his son might encounter an accident.
Although he felt like throttling him all the time, he was still his own flesh and blood, wasn’t he?
