The Bumpy Road of Marriage: Divorce Now, Daddy

Gu Juexi’s face was poked by her phone and was hurting a little. This was his wife’s doing. If it was anybody else who did it, he would have already kicked them out.

“What is it?” Gu Juexi reached out and took Ye Yuwei’s phone. He glanced at the screen and frowned disdainfully.

Ye Yuwei leaned against Gu Juexi and strangled his neck. “You have the nerve to respond like that!”

Gu Juexi let Ye Yuwei strangle him while he stared at the photo Wen Shan had posted. There were many types of dishes laid out on the table. The food all looked good.

A man that could cook… it pissed CEO Gu off.

“A gentleman stays away from the kitchen. Didn’t you know that?” Gu Juexi scoffed and tossed Ye Yuwei’s phone aside. He flipped her over and pinned her to the bed. “Other men can only impress with their cooking skills and disappoint in other areas.”

Ye Yuwei avoided Gu Juexi’s kiss. “What right do you have to talk about others when you can’t even cook a simple dish like ginger soup?”

Ginger soup?

An incident that got him scolded by his own son. It was forever engraved in his mind.

“A great person pays no attention to trivial matters.” Gu Juexi tried to find excuses for himself.

“Ugh, I doubt I can ever eat a meal prepared by my own husband. Why do I lead such a miserable life?” Ye Yuwei lamented and tried to get up from the bed.

Gu Juexi continued lying on top of her as he pondered what Ye Yuwei had said. Abruptly, he rolled off her and got out of bed. “Just you wait.”

Ye Yuwei stared at him, stunned.

Ye Yuwei watched as the man in pyjamas walked out of the room and was suddenly reminded of the unfortunate accident in the kitchen. She immediately jumped out of bed and put on her slippers before rushing out of the room.

At that moment, Gu Juexi had chased away all the servants from the kitchen. Ye Yuwei instantly regretted what she had said earlier.

Qian Shener glanced at Ye Yuwei anxiously. Ye Yuwei smiled awkwardly before walking into the kitchen.

“Go out.” Gu Juexi pushed Ye Yuwei out before slamming the kitchen door shut.

Ye Yuwei’s jaw dropped.

Qian Shener swallowed nervously.

“Butler Kim, please get in touch with the firefighters. I’m sure a fire will break out soon,” Ye Yuwei muttered furiously.

Ye Xicheng rubbed his eyes sleepily as he walked down the stairs and hugged Ye Yuwei’s leg. “Mummy…”

Ye Yuwei looked down at her son and caressed his head. She decided to not be envious of others and use culinary skills to provoke Gu Juexi anymore.

Time ticked by slowly as Ye Yuwei helped Ye Xicheng wash up and settled Xixi who had just woken up. She kept her ears open for any incident.

To her astonishment, Gu Juexi actually cooked something without burning the kitchen down. It was rice that looked like porridge.

Only rice, with no other dishes.

Gu Juexi looked at Ye Yuwei with a smug smile. Who said he couldn’t cook?

Ye Yuwei blinked at the pot of mushy rice.

She felt like dying.

For CEO Gu to be able to cook this pot of porridge-like rice was actually pretty good!

One shouldn’t have high expectations of Gu Juexi in this area. The fact that the kitchen was still intact was already a success.

Xixi was very supportive of her daddy, praising him and telling him that the porridge tasted good. She even had a second helping. Ye Yuwei exchanged glances with Ye Xicheng and ate the porridge quietly. There was nothing else to eat after all.

Wen Jie was the happiest of them all. It was her first time tasting her son’s cooking.

“Weiwei, if it wasn’t for you, I doubt I would be able to eat something prepared by my son in this lifetime.”

Wen Jie spoke the truth. In Gu Juexi’s heart, he really would do anything for Ye Yuwei. That thought would never dull with the passing of time, but only be amplified.

Perhaps that was what a marriage should be based on.
