That was Gu Juexi’s childhood, Gu Juexi’s past—the man named Gu Tianmu.
“But who knows,” said Ye Yuwei softly, “Gu Juexi was saying that he wanted a third child, but I…” Ye Yuwei trailed off as she fidgeted with her phone, gaze lowered.
“What’s wrong?” Xiao Yaojing asked curiously.
“I had severe bleeding when I gave birth to Xicheng and Xixi,” said Ye Yuwei as she continued to fidget with her phone, “the doctor said that it is almost impossible for me to have another child.”
Xiao Yaojing gasped in surprise and got up to give Ye Yuwei a hug. “You have already given him two beautiful children, what else does that greedy man want?”
Ye Yuwei smiled bitterly. She knew why Gu Juexi wanted a third child. He had missed the birth and growing up of the two kids but he would like to experience it. Alas, she would not be able to make his wish come true.
She had been wanting to tell Gu Juexi about it but she really didn’t know how to start.
“He can’t be mad at you just because you can’t give him another child,” Xiao Yaojing scoffed.
Ye Yuwei smiled in amusement and reached out to pat her wrist. “I am fine, I just get a little down whenever I think about it.”
Ye Yuwei was comforting Xiao Yaojing when her phone rang again. She grabbed her phone and answered the call.
“What were you doing? Your line was engaged with another call, who was it?” It was Gu Juexi on the end of the other line, sounding unhappy.
Ye Yuwei was stunned at the question and rolled her eyes. “Yaojing’s mother called to ask what kind of person PA Wen was so I spoke to her for a while. Satisfied?”
Gu Juexi fell silent on the other end of the line.
“Embarrassing,” Ye Xicheng remarked loudly, staring at Gu Juexi as he played with Lego blocks.
Ye Yuwei heard what her son said and chuckled.
“What are you laughing at?” asked Gu Juexi, obviously not happy with what his son said to him.
Ye Yuwei was not bothered by Gu Juexi’s anger and didn’t stop laughing.
“Yes, and your wife said she felt sorry for Wen Tao,” said Xiao Yaojing from the side.
“Hey…” Ye Yuwei covered her phone immediately so Gu Juexi wouldn’t hear and glared at Xiao Yaojing who had fled to a far corner of the room.
Xiao Yaojing looked at Ye Yuwei smilingly while mouthing the word “revenge”.
Why did she have a friend like this? Why?
“Gu…” The call was ended before Ye Yuwei could finish.
Gu Juexi hung up, his expression dark. He dialed PA Wen’s number next and said only one sentence: “don’t come back until next week.”
PA Wen had just landed in China and was confused at Gu Juexi’s rage. What had he done?
Such unpredictable rage.
If PA Wen knew that Gu Juexi’s rage was from Xiao Yaojing, he might head to Xiao Yaojing’s place immediately and make that woman realize her mistake.
Ye Yuwei looked at Xiao Yaojing, still holding her phone. “Do you know that Gu Juexi doesn’t dare lash out at me now? Do you know who he would lash out at if not me?”
“It can’t be me,” said Xiao Yaojing as she sat down comfortably.
“PA Wen,” said Ye Yuwei with a faint smile on her face, and Xiao Yaojing’s face fell.
