“Ye Xixi,” Ye Yuwei called Xixi by her full name.
Xixi knew that that was her mother’s limit and stopped sobbing almost instantly, hiding in her daddy’s arms.
Ye Xicheng felt that Ye Yuwei might lose the fight this round.
Xixi cried in Gu Juexi’s arms and fell asleep after a while. Gu Juexi did not put her down even after she fell asleep. Ye Yuwei passed by to check on them a few times and found Gu Juexi looking at his daughter lovingly each time.
Looked like it was true that the wife and daughter were two extreme opposites to men. Legend says that a daughter was the lover of her father in his previous life, and that the lover from a previous life is always the most important to them.
Ye Xicheng scoffed. Apparently a son was nothing when a man had a daughter.
Ye Yuwei got Master Yao Lao settled down after they got back to B City. Ye Yuwei had been taking care of Master Yao Lao like family because to her, Master Yao Lao was not just a miracle-working doctor who could save Xixi, but also an elderly who Gu Juexi vowed to take care of.
Nalan Chunbo tagged along when PA Wen came to pick them up.
Xixi was still asleep at the time with her hand holding Gu Juexi’s shirt. Not wanting to wake her up, Ye Yuwei let Gu Juexi bring Xixi with him. Ye Xicheng followed Gu Juexi reluctantly because he didn’t want Xixi to be scared if she woke up and didn’t see her mother or brother.
Gu Juexi’s face fell when he saw Nalan Chunbo. That woman asked Nalan Chunbo to pick them up? Was Qian Yikun’s hotel so nice that she would rather stay there than stay at home?
Ye Yuwei let out a humph and followed Nalan Chunbo into his car, then dropped the pretentious air that she had faked in the car.
“I expected the relationship between you two to improve after this trip,” said Nalan Chunbo who looked at Ye Yuwei smilingly.
Improve?
Ye Yuwei recalled the trip. Their relationship might have improved if that man did not say a word before and after the flight.
“I am going back to Country X soon,” said Nalan Chunbo suddenly.
“Why all of a sudden?” Ye Yuwei asked in surprise.
“It wasn’t a quick decision, someone has to be there. I suppose you won’t follow me back and settle down there? If that is the case, I will arrange to sell the house,” Nalan Chunbo explained.
Ye Yuwei tried to say something and found herself speechless.
Would she leave after what happened yesterday?
Apparently not.
“I don’t really find Gu Juexi appealing, but the truth is there is nothing that he wouldn’t do for you.” Nalan Chunbo glanced at Ye Yuwei and carried on driving.
“What?” What had Gu Juexi done for her that even her fussy brother approved of him?
“Nothing,” Nalan Chunbo smiled and said. “Oh, there is something that I need to tell you. Bai Yuyan was taken away from the prison. Not an easy way out though, because I heard that she was muted and her arms were broken.”
Ye Yuwei listened to Nalan Chunbo and linked it to the phone call that Gu Juexi received yesterday.
“Did someone from the Bai Family take her?” Ye Yuwei asked, pursing her lips.
“Looks like it so far,” Nalan Chunbo replied.
Meanwhile, in the car behind them, PA Wen was telling the same thing to Gu Juexi.
“Bai Ying gave the order that no one save Bai Yuyan, but Bai Yuyan was still taken away from the prison. That means that amongst those who seemed loyal to Old Man Bai, there were some who were outwardly compliant but inwardly unsubmissive,” said PA Wen as he drove while checking out the CEO who was carrying Xixi in his arms from the rear mirror.
Ye Xicheng was nodding off in the backseat and Gu Juexi pulled a blanket over him.
He only did that because he was his son.
