The Bumpy Road of Marriage: Divorce Now, Daddy

“Gu Juexi!” Ye Yuwei ran across the shaking ship to the taffrail and shouted Gu Juexi’s name, but there was no sign of Gu Juexi in the roaring sea.

Gu Juexi…

Ye Yuwei held the rail tightly and stared at the sea without blinking. She was already drenched in the seawater that had poured over the ship. Her wet clothes were sticking to her skin uncomfortably but she could not be bothered.

“What is taking so long, is he dead?” Mo Fei looked at the time and cursed softly.

The seawater continued to pour over the ship, causing it to slowly sink into the sea.

Time continued to pass as the ship slowly sank, and Ye Yuwei continued to keep her eyes on the sea that had slowly calmed down.

One minute, two minutes…

Ye Yuwei couldn’t tell how long it had been. All she hoped was that the person she was looking for would surface.

While Ye Yuwei was staring at the sea, Mo Fei heaved a sigh of relief when the sound of a helicopter rent the air.

The helicopter hovered on top of the ship and let down a rope ladder, and everyone was surprised to see Gu Juexi climbing down the ladder.

“What took so long, Qian Yikun?” Mo Fei yelled, looking up at the helicopter.

A man’s head popped out from the cockpit – it was Qian Yikun with sunglasses on. “Hurry up and get on board, the explosion just now triggered a tsunami. You can stay here if you want to die and save me the trouble of going after you.”

Tsunami?

Mo Fei fell silent at the information. Tsunamis could be deadly after all.

Gu Juexi had landed on the deck and pulled Wen Jie towards the helicopter.

“Where is your father?” asked Wen Jie. She looked calm but her voice was shaky.

“He is in the helicopter. After you, Mother.” It took a few seconds before Gu Juexi answered Wen Jie. He didn’t finish his sentence and was hoping that Wen Jie could get on quickly.

Ye Yuwei let Qiao Yi and Nalan Chunbo who was injured board before her.

They could hear the tsunami approaching in the dark. When everyone had boarded, Gu Juexi yelled at Ye Yuwei to get on board before it was too late.

Ye Yuwei looked back at the four men who were shivering on the deck then looked at Gu Juexi. “Let’s bring them too.”

Those men only worked for money. They were not the best people, but they did not deserve death.

Gu Juexi looked at the tsunami approaching and began to push Ye Yuwei up to the rope ladder. “We have to go now before it is too late!”

“The world is an evil place, Wei Wei. The strong prey on the weak, the rich on the poor,” said Mo Fei dramatically, her head popping out from the co-pilot’s window.

“Don’t teach Yuwei such things. I swear to bring you to justice once we got back,” said Qian Yikun as he observed the surroundings without looking at Mo Fei at all.

“Why, are you afraid that I might corrupt Wei Wei?” Mo Fei teased, flipping her hair that was drenched in seawater. Her beautiful face wore a seductive smile as she said, “Bring me to justice? Let’s see if you are that good then, hypocrite.”

The helicopter shook slightly.

“Already?” Qian Yikun cursed softly.

“It’s a tsunami, what do you expect?” Mo Fei scoffed and held onto the handles tightly.

Qian Yikun glanced at Ye Yuwei and Gu Juexi who were already on the ladder and took off. They had to leave now or it would be too late when the tsunami came.

“Mo Fei…”

Mo Fei popped her head out of the window again when Gu Juexi yelled her name, then threw the metal wire on her wrist towards the deck of the ship.
