Gu Juexi got to his feet hurriedly and followed Ye Yuwei to the bathroom, but she slammed the door in his face.
“My dear, it was an accident, I swear!” Gu Juexi pleaded desperately, “It was a reflex, I can’t help it! I have a lot of enemies out there, you know? I could take a stroll outside and come back with bullet holes all over my body. Please, open the door.”
Ye Yuwei listened to the rambling behind the door while washing her face. She looked at her reddened wrist and sighed. It was impossible to interact with this man anymore.
Ye Yuwei remained silent while Gu Juexi kept on pleading and asking for her forgiveness behind the closed door.
Ye Yuwei emerged from the door after washing her face, glaring sharply at him.
There wasn’t the slightest chance for her to do something romantic with him! The word ‘romantic’ was not in his dictionary.
How on earth had she fallen for this man?
Her romantic act had immediately been stopped by Gu Juexi. She would never try something romantic ever again.
Because of his mistake, Gu Juexi was timid and obedient the whole day. He said yes and good to whatever Ye Yuwei said. He willingly did whatever Ye Yuwei wanted to do.
Both of them went downstairs to grab a bite. Ye Yuwei wanted to visit the food alley, but it was objected firmly by the obnoxious CEO.
“Do you know what kind of place that is? Why do you want to go there? Can’t we just find someplace nice to eat?” Gu Juexi complained miserably, “Ye Yuwei, I’m ok with everything else but not this.”
“Why not? You don’t want to go with me because you don’t love me at all,” Ye Yuwei pursed her lips and argued.
“This has nothing to do with love.” Gu Juexi imagined the food alley, and every cell in his body was engraved with the words ‘I definitely don’t want to go’.
“But I want to go,” Ye Yuwei insisted, “You have no idea how many nice food there are in the food alley. Aren’t you curious?”
“I’m not,” Gu Juexi dismissed the idea instantly.
Ye Yuwei grasped his arm tightly. “Gu Juexi, do you or do you not want to go with me?”
“No, I do not,” Gu Juexi replied and shook her hands off, “The place is so dirty—”
“If you don’t want to go, you find a place and eat by yourself. I’m going,” Ye Yuwei growled and turned around to go to the food alley.
“Ye Yuwei,” Gu Juexi clenched his teeth and groaned. He placed a hand on his waist with the other massaging his forehead. Why hadn’t he noticed this woman’s flaws before?
The previous version of Ye Yuwei was so obedient.
Ye Yuwei kept glancing behind but Gu Juexi was not following.
She pouted unhappily. Was that man an idiot?
Gu Juexi kept his hands on his waist while looking in the direction where Ye Yuwei had disappeared.
The vendors were hollering everywhere in the food alley. Ye Yuwei had lost her appetite and desire for food but she had no intention to walk back.
Gu Juexi sighed and followed her. She was his wife after all.
“Lamb skewers! Money-back guarantee if it’s not lamb!”
The authentic Tibetan accent vibrated through the market and Ye Yuwei looked at the vendor subconsciously. It was not because she craved it, but it intrigued her.
As if she was tempted, she walked toward the vendor. As she approached the stall, she was suddenly pushed by someone and in a split second, another person had pulled her away. She barely managed to avoid the intense flames that were blazing at the grill rack.
The person who had pushed her had wanted her to crash into the grill rack.
The person who pulled her had been trying to save her?
Ye Yuwei gasped in shock and was pulled into Gu Juexi’s embrace. The young vendor who manned the lamb skewer stall said with a smiling face, “Be careful and don’t get too close, the fire is huge.”
Gu Juexi held Ye Yuwei’s arms tightly and could only see the shadow of a person that had gone further away and disappeared.
