Gu Juexi looked at his son. His own biological son.
Nalan Chunbo reached out and patted Ye Xicheng lightly on his head. “Xicheng called me and asked me to come over. Where is Xixi? We will leave once we get Xixi.”
Ye Xicheng nodded and then turned around, wanting to go into the house to look for his younger sister.
“CEO Gu, then we will take our leave now,” Nalan Chunbo said.
Gu Juexi’s hands were clenched tightly in his pockets. He did not have any expression on his face but it seemed like he was hiding something. He looked at Ye Yuwei and suddenly said, “Auntie Mao, Yuwei is here.”
Ye Yuwei lifted her head and stared at Gu Juexi the moment she heard him say ‘Auntie Mao’. She had not expected this from him.
Before the person inside could come out, Ye Yuwei had already pushed Gu Juexi aside and ran inside the house.
Nalan Chunbo raised his hand slightly as he looked at Ye Yuwei who had already run into the house. “CEO Gu, you are really amazing at coming up with these schemes.”
“Mr. Nalan, you are being too polite,” Gu Juexi quickly retaliated.
“It seems like CEO Gu finally understood what I meant the other day,” Nalan Chunbo suddenly said.
Gu Juexi’s expression turned gloomy as he turned around and looked at Nalan Chunbo.
“Ye Yuwei married me. She is my wife and therefore, she is a member of the Gu family. It does not matter to me what happened with the Bai family or the Ye family,” Gu Juexi said in a serious tone. “Furthermore, I don’t care about how powerful the Bai family is, as long as they can never extend their reach into China. Then it will have nothing to do with me.”
“You will protect her then?” Nalan Chunbo asked.
“She is my wife,” Gu Juexi replied coldly before walking into the house.
Nalan Chunbo raised his brows before he walked into the house.
Ye Yuwei was sitting on the sofa, hugging the thin and frail Auntie Mao, with tears falling down her cheeks.
Auntie Mao touched Ye Yuwei’s face lightly with her wrinkled hand. Tears were also falling down her face. “Good child, it is good that you are back home safely now. Forget about that old and confused woman. She had been so pampered her whole life that she cannot hear and feel what is right anymore.”
Auntie Mao was talking about the old mistress. After Auntie Mao woke up from her coma, she had a fight with the old mistress because of Ye Yuwei. Their bond that was thicker than blood and that had lasted for a couple of decades was completely broken.
The old mistress returned to the United States, refusing to return.
Gu Juexi had then persuaded Auntie Mao to stay in Gu Mansion, and he had taken care of her ever since then.
Ye Yuwei took a deep breath and held tightly onto Auntie Mao’s hand. “For the past few years, I have always wanted to come back and see you, but I was afraid that I would disappoint you.”
“How could you disappoint me? Look at these two beautiful children that you have. There are no words that could explain how happy I am right now,” Auntie Mao said as she laughed. “Luckily I asked Butler Kim to switch the medicine in the past. How else would you be able to have such beautiful babies?”
Ye Yuwei: “…”
Gu Juexi: “…”
Gu Juexi turned around to look at Butler Kim who had suddenly gotten very busy looking for something to do.
It was better not to take old debts into account.
“It is already late, Weiwei. If you are not too busy, why don’t you stay for dinner?” Wen Jie who was carrying Xixi on her lap suddenly asked.
“I—”
“Auntie, Weiwei still have some company matters that she has to deal with. It would probably be inconvenient for us to stay for dinner,” Nalan Chunbo suddenly interrupted without giving Ye Yuwei a chance to speak.
Gu Juexi glared at Nalan Chunbo who was staring at him with a smile on his face.
Ye Yuwei naturally understood Nalan Chunbo’s words.
That was her promise to him.
