Gu Juexi suddenly got up and left the room hastily as if running away from a monster.

Ye Yuwei did not move at all even if she was now free to move around. Staring at the ceiling and laying on the bed, Ye Yuwei was not capable of reading Gu Juexi’s mind. Because of Yu Sha’er, he had never hesitated to put her into trouble but now he behaved like a man burning with jealousy.

At this time, Auntie Mao walked in the room with a tray in her hands. They were all Ye Yuwei’s favorite dishes.

Hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, Ye Yuwei sat up suddenly. Auntie Mao was indifferent, as if she did not know the quarrel between her and Gu Juexi. But Ye Yuwei knew in her heart that Auntie Mao was just pretending. The quarrel was so loud, it was impossible that Auntie Mao was not aware.

“Hey, my little girl, look at your shrunken body. You must be starving. Look what I’ve cooked for you. They are all your favorite dishes. You little girl, how could you just run away and not inform me when you would return? I have been cooking the same dishes every day, waiting for you to return home.” Auntie Mao talked incessantly.

Suddenly, Ye Yuwei stretched out her arms and held onto Auntie Mao. She buried her head in Auntie Mao’s hip and started crying like a child who had suffered a great deal of grievance.

When Ye Yuwei was out there, she always stood firm when facing all the challenges. She knew that if she did not, it would only intensify the trouble. and no one else would lend her a hand. However, her sheer grit and determination were defeated entirely with a touch of warmth.

“Auntie Mao, Auntie Mao…” Ye Yuwei cried her heart out. Her throat hurt and she was not capable of saying any other words besides these.

Auntie Mao raised her hand slightly and gently stroked Yu Yuwei’s head.

“You silly girl, it’s fine to cry. You will feel better after this,” Auntie Mao whispered. Her voice was soft and gentle like a mother singing a lullaby to a child.

Standing at the door, Gu Juexi listened to Ye Yuwei’s heart-wrenching cry and clenched his fists. It was not loud but it was capable of tearing his heart apart.

‘Can I have your autograph?’ With a pair of bright and big eyes, she looked at him cautiously. That was the first time they met each other.

‘My… my name is Ye Yuwei. Do you really agree to marry me?’ With the same bright eyes, she was shy but he could feel her excitement.

Gu Juexi looked at his big hand—he did not hold her in his arms on the day they got married. In fact, he had never held her in all of these three years. But now, she wanted to divorce him. He could never hold her hands again after this.

“Master, Mr. Song is here. Before Gu Juexi could collect his thoughts, Butler Kim informed him of Song Helian’s arrival.

Gu Juexi quickly retracted his hands. Why would he be wasting time on this? He would never get divorced. Never!

“What are you doing here, Brother Gu?” Song Helian’s voice reached Gu Juexi’s ears before he could see him in person. Apparently, Song Helian was not easy to deal with.

Gu Juexi regained his focus and turned to look at Song Helian who was nearly at the top of the stairs.
