The Bumpy Road of Marriage: Divorce Now, Daddy

Gu Juexi’s expression was still menacing after Ye Yuwei saw Qian Yikun off.

Never mind. He looked like that all the time anyway.

Ye Yuwei went into the office, followed by Gu Juexi who closed the office door behind him.

“What did he want?” Gu Juexi asked straightforwardly.

“Don’t you know? He came for Mo Fei,” said Ye Yuwei who bent to pick up the little blue box on the table. Sadly, Gu Juexi reacted quickly and grabbed the little blue box before she did.

Gu Juexi opened the box right after he picked it up and frowned when he saw what was inside. “You took his gift?”

Gu Juexi said it so loudly that he was practically roaring. He was definitely jealous.

“At least he knows to bring a gift. What did you bring for me? A necklace? A diamond ring? You made it look like I begged you for those damn roses when you bought them for me for that one time,” Ye Yuwei snarled as she glared at Gu Juexi.

“Watch your language! How can you be so rude as a female?” Gu Juexi was getting diffident as Ye Yuwei went on.

“Looks like you would only buy cactus as gifts,” Ye Yuwei sneered and snatched the necklace out of his hand to look at the microchip inside.

“At least it shows how much effort I made when choosing your gift, a cactus suits you,” Gu Juexi argued, not at all bothered by what Ye Yuwei said.

Ye Yuwei looked up at the sky and wondered how a man like this existed.

“I thank you for your effort,” Ye Yuwei said, smiling coldly as she continued to examine her necklace. Gu Juexi suddenly snatched it from her. “Is it so nice to look at a gift from another man?”

“I heard that there is a microchip in this necklace, and Bai Yuyan retrieved that very microchip from inside my body. Does that ring a bell, Mr. Gu?” Ye Yuwei looked at Gu Juexi and sneered.

Gu Juexi had nothing to say. He knew that that man was up to no good!

“I can explain,” said Gu Juexi quickly.

“So you do know about it,” Ye Yuwei said and sat down on the sofa, raising her eyebrows expectantly.

Gu Juexi was standing in front of Ye Yuwei. While he was considerably taller than Ye Yuwei at the moment, he was the one feeling the stress.

It was probably how Ye Yuwei felt back then when she stood and talked to him while he was seated.

It was just like the old saying: the shoe is on the other foot now.

“You know it was urgent and I didn’t have much time to care about everything, but I couldn’t just leave you unattended. I needed to know your whereabouts because Cheng Jie might have been after you,” Gu Juexi said as he sat down on the arm rest beside Ye Yuwei.

“So you managed to drive me away from Cheng Jie every time I saw him. You were spying on me, Gu Juexi,” said Ye Yuwei angrily.

Gu Juexi didn’t deny it and continued, “I was forced to make that decision, I couldn’t afford to lose you.”

Gu Juexi got up from the armrest. He put his hand on her waist and secretly moved closer to Ye Yuwei without her knowing. Before Ye Yuwei could react, Gu Juexi had trapped her in between his arms against the sofa that she was sitting on.

Ye Yuwei was completely speechless. What was this man doing now?

“Haven’t you always wanted to know when I realized that I had fallen for you?” Gu Juexi asked softly. “I can tell you now. I realized it when you decided to leave me but I didn’t want to just let you go. I couldn’t treat you rationally like how I did with the others. I needed to know that you were safe anytime, anywhere.”
