The Bumpy Road of Marriage: Divorce Now, Daddy

Gu Juexi took the paper with the phone number written on it, then wiped the oil from Ye Yuwei’s mouth with his other hand. “Don’t you wipe your mouth after stealing a bite?”

Ye Yuwei grumbled and pushed Gu Juexi’s hand away.

“Let’s meet him tomorrow before the ink is dry,” Gu Juexi said and put the paper on the table.

Ye Yuwei pursed her lips slightly. If he wanted to act before the ink was dry, he should arrange the meeting for today, shouldn’t he?

Gu Juexi sat down by the bed and resumed looking at his computer screen. Ye Yuwei glanced over and teased, “What’s up? Are you planning a vacation? Are you sure? Your PA Wen hasn’t returned from his honeymoon yet.”

Ye Yuwei flopped onto the bed after speaking. Gu Juexi looked askance at her and said, “I picked a few places for our pre-wedding photoshoot.”

“Where?” Ye Yuwei got up and went to see his computer out of curiosity. Before she managed to do so, Gu Juexi pushed her back on the bed.

“Stop being a busybody. I spent a lot of money to ask for your hand, I won’t let you be disappointed,” Gu Juexi huffed and shut down his computer.

Ye Yuwei laid on the bed dejectedly, pouting.

“Oh yes, by the way, I know you don’t have friends, so I took it upon myself to pick the best men for you, my brother and Brother Qian. Mo Fei agreed to be my bridesmaid. I wanted to invite Wen Shan, but I don’t think it’s a good idea now,” Ye Yuwei said as she stared at the ceiling and frowned.

Gu Juexi glared at her. “Are you planning to transform our wedding into a group dating venue?” Gu Juexi chided, displeased.

Ye Yuwei cupped Gu Juexi’s face and said with a gentle smile, “Don’t be so stingy.”

Gu Juexi’s face turned a few shades darker.

Was he being stingy?

He didn’t like Qian Yikun, that’s all.

However, he had to admit that his wife had a special sort of charm to be able to persuade someone like Mo Fei to be her bridesmaid. It was definitely not because of him.

Du Mingsheng was Auntie Yuan’s only child. He had always lived with his father. Later, when his father passed away, he refused to stay in Gu Mansion with his mother and decided to live on campus. He was a very independent person.

He had now owned a small company of his own. Hence he was capable of living a better life.

His journey was the perfect story for an inspirational movie, but in Gu Juexi’s eyes, that was not the case.

Gu Juexi set their meeting in Gu Juexi’s office.

Du Mingsheng was eighteen years old, six feet tall, and a chirpy and brilliant young man.

He had donned a suit today, but due to his scrawny physique, the outfit looked slightly loose-fitting.

Du Mingsheng entered Gu Juexi’s office as the secretary led him to it. When he walked in, he scanned Gu Juexi’s office and got carried away. He looked at Gu Juexi, who got to his feet after the secretary excused herself, and said, “Young Master, your office is bigger than my company.”

Du Mingsheng addressed him as Young Master, just like his mother did.

Gu Juexi gestured for him to sit on the sofa and ordered the secretary to bring coffee.

“I heard from Auntie Yuan that you started a company with your friends, why didn’t you come to me?” Gu Juexi sat down, watching Du Mingsheng, who was still eyeing his office after taking his seat.

The secretary placed the coffee next to Du Mingsheng and served tea for Gu Juexi.

Du Mingsheng retracted his gaze, regained his composure and said, “it’s just a small company, nothing worth mentioning.”

Gu Juexi motioned for him to drink the coffee. He lifted his cup and gently shook it. “I have just looked at the webpage you designed, it is quite impressive. I must say, your hacking skills are pretty good too.”
