PA Wen remained silent. Sometimes, being a wuss could save your life.
Gu Juexi gave the people sitting opposite him an icy stare. Ye Yuwei massaged her temples and said, “Hurry up and finish your dinner. We still have to rush to Feng County later, right?”
“Yes, yes. Let’s eat,” persuaded PA Wen. He and Ye Yuwei exchanged glances. It wasn’t easy for them, being stuck between these two people.
Fortunately, both Xiao Yaojing and Gu Juexi decided to halt their childish bickering, so all of them managed to have their dinner in peace.
After the meal, PA Wen went to pay the bill and Ye Yuwei went to use the restroom. They had no problem leaving those two at the table as long as it didn’t implicate them.
“They will not start a fight, will they?” asked PA Wen worriedly.
“They can fight all they want, we’ll just come back when they are done,” said Ye Yuwei indifferently.
PA Wen was so close to giving Ye Yuwei a big thumbs up.
At the table, it was peculiar seeing only Gu Juexi and Xiao Yaojing there. Gu Juexi leaned back in the chair without any intention of talking. Xiao Yaojing stared at the man in front of her and smirked in disdain.
“Gu Juexi, if you do something awful to Yezi again, I will not spare you,” warned Xiao Yaojing.
Gu Juexi looked at her nonchalantly. “Do you think you’ll have the chance?”
“Well, it’s hard to say.” Xiao Yaojing glanced at him in disgust.
Gu Juexi couldn’t care less about her beliefs and he didn’t owe anyone an explanation. In this universe, nobody was worthy of his clarification except Ye Yuwei.
Ye Yuwei and PA Wen returned to the table, relieved to see that no fight had occurred.
They resumed their journey after dinner. There were only two voices talking in the car—female voices. At one point, when they stopped at a rest area, Xiao Yaojing switched seats with Gu Juexi to sit at the back with Ye Yuwei.
Gu Juexi was speechless.
A woman’s tongue wagged like a lamb’s tail. If one more woman joined in, they could start a drama series.
PA Wen trembled in fear for the trouble Madam had given him. He didn’t want to sit beside a mobile refrigerator.
By the time they arrived at Feng County, it was already midnight, an hour later than the previous visit.
The accommodation conditions were not ideal, but Ye Yuwei acknowledged that this was better than the city hotel they stayed at before. Hence, Gu Juexi just frowned without any complaints.
Ye Yuwei and PA Wen subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
Gu Juexi suddenly stopped before entering the room. “Give me the address.”
Ye Yuwei and Xiao Yaojing stared in shock. Ye Yuwei looked at Gu Juexi. “You want to go there now? It’s so late!”
PA Wen had the same question in his mind but he wouldn’t dare say it out loud. He wrote down the address swiftly and gave him the directions.
Gu Juexi glanced at the address and said, “Wen Tao, bring Xiao Yaojing and wait for us in front of the alley.”
“I understand,” replied PA Wen with a nod and grabbed Xiao Yaojing’s arm hastily before she started talking.
Ye Yuwei hurriedly followed behind Gu Juexi, although she couldn’t fathom him being so anxious for this.
“Say, is he rushing for reincarnation?” asked Xiao Yaojing skeptically.
PA Wen shrugged and followed behind them. “There must be a reason why the CEO is doing this. Come along.”
Xiao Yaojing clicked her tongue. Gu Juexi was always so enigmatic, she didn’t buy it.
