The Bumpy Road of Marriage: Divorce Now, Daddy

Xiao Yaojing and PA Wen discussed the solutions and ended the call with Xiao Yaojing teasing PA Wen cheekily. Enjoying teasing PA Wen, Xiao Yaojing giggled in her bed after PA Wen ended the call.

Xiao Yaojing looked for her chatbox with Ye Yuwei and sent her a text before taking a shower.

Meanwhile, Ye Yuwei and Gu Juexi were in the car waiting outside the hotel where Gu Tianmu was staying simply because Gu Juexi refused to go into the hotel.

They waited for more than half an hour when Gu Tianmu finally showed up.

Gu Juexi got down from the car when he saw Gu Tianmu, while Ye Yuwei stayed in the car knowing that Gu Tianmu probably wouldn’t want to see her.

Father and son wore the same menacing expression and stood face-to-face under the moon, frightening everyone that was passing by.

Gu Tianmu knew that Ye Yuwei was in the car but he couldn’t be bothered.

“What do you need from me?” asked Gu Tianmu coldly.

Ye Yuwei noticed that the genes of Gu Family were so strong that both father and son were so alike, be it their temper or their looks.

“Who told you that my mother eloped with someone?” Gu Juexi leaned against his car and asked directly without holding back.

Ye Yuwei massaged her temples hopelessly. She would be strangling this man if he was her child.

But that was the way Gu Juexi did things. He was indeed a straightforward guy.

“You should be asking your mother about this,” said Gu Tianmu. It was obvious even in the dark that Gu Tianmu’s face had turned ashen when he heard Gu Juexi’s question.

It was clear that Gu Tianmu took offence at what Wen Jie did.

“Looks like you have only heard about it rather than actually seen it,” Gu Juexi sneered and said to Gu Tianmu before he got into his car. “The members of the Gu Family who claim that love was not important were all just puppets of money. You and my mother have nothing to do with each other anymore, so stop showing up before my mother from now on.”

“Is that woman really so important to you, Gu Juexi?” Gu Tianmu demanded angrily. “Look at what you have become because of that woman.”

Gu Juexi who had bent over to get into the car straightened when he heard Gu Tianmu. “I became the person I wanted to be and the person you could never be,” Gu Juexi said slowly, gaze locked on Gu Tianmu.

Gu Juexi then got into the car and drove away while Gu Tianmu stood where he was and clenched his hands tightly.

He had only heard about Wen Jie’s elopement. He was on a business trip outside of the United States when it happened. But there was no reason for his own mother to lie to him, not to mention that Wen Jie had admitted the elopement herself.

Gu Juexi drove all the way out of the town. “Your father was innocent. He wasn’t involved in this at all and had only heard about mother’s so-called elopement instead of actually seeing it back then,” said Ye Yuwei while resting her chin against her hand.

Gu Juexi listened to Ye Yuwei and couldn’t help but agree that what Ye Yuwei said made sense.

If what Ye Yuwei said was correct, Gu Tianmu must be the most ignorant person in this puzzle.

“But who lied to your father?” asked Ye Yuwei cluelessly.

“Grandma,” said Gu Juexi.

Ye Yuwei’s mind went blank for a second and asked Gu Juexi in confusion, “what good does it bring to falsely accuse her daughter-in-law of cheating and to lie to her own son about it?”

“It’s possible if it was to cover up another truth,” Gu Juexi frowned as he thought. He had a feeling that his grandmother was trying to hide the truth – the truth of what really happened to Ye Di.
