Ye Yuwei gasped in shock as she found herself on Gu Juexi’s lap.
Gu Juexi slid his arms around Ye Yuwei’s waist and sniffed her neck. “Did you just shower?”
“Don’t change the subject,” said Ye Yuwei as she wrapped her arms around Gu Juexi’s neck to keep herself steady.
“Let’s discuss something else before we get to that,” Gu Juexi said and raised his brows.
“About what?” Ye Yuwei asked carefully. Gu Juexi’s tone was accusatory but she couldn’t recall doing anything wrong.
Gu Juexi looked at the naïve and innocent girl in front of him and stopped his indecent train of thought after considering his wounds.
“Gu Tianmu has gone to Feng County, so I sent PA Wen there to see what Gu Tianmu is up to,” said Gu Juexi as he kissed Ye Yuwei’s lips. “I can’t tell what Gu Tianmu is up to and I am worried that he might do something to harm you.” Gu Juexi said it very softly, but it warmed Ye Yuwei’s heart.
She was the reason why Gu Juexi had sent PA Wen. Gu Juexi didn’t send PA Wen to dig up more things about her father.
Ye Yuwei’s arms were still around Gu Juexi’s neck as she avoided his kiss. “Why does your father hate me so much? Is it because I talked back to him that one time?”
Ye Yuwei found her deduction unreasonable though, Gu Tianmu didn’t look like a petty guy. It must be because she said that she suggested the divorce. That must be why Gu Tianmu picked on her so much.
And there could only be one reason why Gu Tianmu was reacting that way: he didn’t want the divorce.
“Could it be…” said Ye Yuwei suddenly, but Gu Juexi kissed her again before she could finish.
He refused to accept that possibility.
His mother wouldn’t have lived so miserably back then if Gu Tianmu had loved her.
Ye Yuwei was going to tell Gu Juexi about Qian Yikun returning to the country initially, but her plan changed when Gu Juexi acted so weirdly. She was already falling asleep when she remembered her initial plan.
Meanwhile, Xiao Yaojing decided to approach PA Wen since her mother wouldn’t leave her alone and nagged at her every single day. Xiao Yaojing began to think that she would rather go to the remote village with PA Wen than stay at home and be nagged at.
PA Wen looked at Xiao Yaojing in disbelief when he picked her up from her house. “B City can’t contain you anymore, Miss Xiao?”
Xiao Yaojing threw her luggage at PA Wen before getting into the car. “My mom nags at me every day. It annoys me.”
PA Wen didn’t know what to say and just entered the car after too after stowing the luggage in the boot. “And it doesn’t annoy you to look at me every day?”
“You are really something. My parents are head over heels for you now. Mind sharing how you accomplished that?” Xiao Yaojing asked coldly as she watched PA Wen starting the car engine.
“Would you do that to my parents if I teach you?”
“You wish!” Xiao Yaojing scoffed. PA Wen wouldn’t have been sent to this place if it weren’t for her, and she only came with him out of guilt.
PA Wen smiled without saying anything.
Feng County was quite far from the town. It was almost a four-hour drive to get there.
“He really sent you to this remote place?” Xiao Yaojing tutted. “Haven’t you known him for more than ten years? He really has no mercy.”
PA Wen glanced at Xiao Yaojing and asked if she needed him to stop at a rest area to use the washroom, then continued their journey after Xiao Yaojing shook her head.
“Feng County is the farthest of all the counties from town,” explained PA Wen, “We haven’t managed to reach Chairman Gu and don’t know what he might be up to.”
