PA Wen dusted his clothes elegantly. “Your parents have such wonderful personalities, I wonder how they produced you, the genetically mutated—”
“Get lost!” Xiao Yaojing shrieked, aiming a kick at him.
PA Wen smiled widely, opened the car door and got in. “When will you learn to be more gentle and ladylike?” He quickly drove off when he saw Xiao Yaojing raise her hand to hit him.
Xiao Yaojing took a deep breath and called Ye Yuwei as she turned around to head back home. “Yezi.”
“Hmm?” Ye Yuwei yawned, keeping her voice down. Xiao Yaojing heard a scuffling noise, as if Ye Yuwei was getting out of bed. “I just put my kids to sleep, have your parents arrived?”
“Is Wen Tao an idiot? My dad asked him what he works as, and he said he works as a PA,” Xiao Yaojing laughed while pressing the elevator button.
“He’s not wrong though,” said Ye Yuwei with an amused smile, slowly coming out from the guest room, “He IS a personal assistant, isn’t he? In fact, he’s an excellent PA! What are you worried about? Worried that your parents might disapprove of him?”
“Who… who’s worried?”
“If you are not worried, why are you stammering?” Ye Yuwei leaned on the second floor railing, laughing delightfully.
“I—”
“Speechless? See, you have another perception of him, I told you so.”
“Nonsense.”
Ye Yuwei was skeptical and raised her eyebrows upon hearing a beep. Xiao Yaojing had ended the call immediately? That only seemed to confirm her assumption.
In Ye Yuwei’s opinion, as long as PA Wen took the chance, it would not be a problem to win over his future in-laws. Filthy rich businessmen and tycoons could not scare PA Wen, so how could parents-in-law?
Speaking of parents-in-law, Ye Yuwei turned around to look at the bedroom. For Gu Juexi, her parents would be the last people he wanted to face in this lifetime.
That war ruined his military career.
The beginning of the war—her father. The end of the war—her mother.
No matter the beginning or the end, he could no longer go back to the Gu Juexi he used to be.
Ye Yuwei leaned on the railing, looking down, phone in hand. It seemed like she and Gu Juexi were on the right track, but there was always something that made her feel uneasy.
Cough cough—
Heavy coughing came from Gu Juexi’s room, and Ye Yuwei quickly went inside.
Gu Juexi was lying on the bed, coughing. Ye Yuwei went over and sat by the bed. Before she could say anything, Gu Juexi grabbed her and pinned her below him on the bed.
Ye Yuwei could only stare up at him in shock.
His eyes were bright and clear—in fact, there were no signs of sickness on his face.
Gu Juexi leaned his forehead against hers and pulled the blankets over them.
“What are you doing?” Ye Yuwei couldn’t see anything in the dark. Her intention of avoiding his kiss failed as his lips met hers.
“You can’t believe everything that little monster said,” grumbled Gu Juexi and pressed a quick kiss to her lips.
That sentence was so full of frustration it made Ye Yuwei want to laugh. How was this man so adorable?
“He is your son, can’t you be nicer to him?” asked Ye Yuwei, her arms sliding around his neck as she shook him gently.
Be nice to that little monster? No way!
“Sleep here tonight,” demanded Gu Juexi, continuing to caress the woman under him.
“I—”
“Mommy, Mommy—” Ye Xicheng’s scream filled the air before Ye Yuwei could speak.
Gu Juexi was shoved away as Ye Yuwei jumped out of bed instantly. He stared at the ceiling in rage as he heard the bedroom door closing.
