Gu Juexi made up his mind to eat Ye Yuwei up today. No matter what, Ye Yuwei would not be able to run away now.
But at that very moment, Ye Yuwei’s phone received a video call.
Ye Yuwei took a breath of surprise. As if she had received the Emperor’s imperial mandate of salvation from death, she promptly pushed away Gu Juexi who was stunned by the sound. Just as Gu Juexi was about to reach out to snatch her phone, Ye Yuwei had already accepted the video call. The sound of their daughter crying emerged from the phone.
Instantly, Gu Juexi canceled all his thoughts and rapidly snatched over the phone in Ye Yuwei’s hand. “Ye Xicheng, why are you not watching your sister properly?”
Ye Yuwei was speechless.
‘Gu Juexi are you retarded? What does your precious daughter crying have to do with my son?’ Ye Yuwei thought to herself.
Little Ye Xicheng was patting his sister on the other end of the phone while giving that old meatball a disdainful look.
“Gu Juexi, you must be crazy,” Ye Yuwei said and took over the phone. She then reached for the blanket to cover her slightly tattered and messy appearance.
“What’s wrong?”
“Sis had a nightmare, she wants to see Mommy.” Ye Xicheng couldn’t care less about that crazy old meatball. “Mommy, why are your clothes wet?”
Ye Yuwei turned around and gave Gu Juexi a death glare. Gu Juexi immediately said, “What are you looking at me for? Don’t you know how to console your child?”
‘… Good. Gu Juexi you’re good. Sleep by yourself.’ Ye Yuwei thought to herself and jumped right out of bed with her phone.
“Mommy’s here. Don’t you have your brother by your side? Nothing to be afraid of.”
Gu Juexi emulated Ye Yuwei and got out of bed as well as he watched his poor little puffball crying in the video call.
“Mommy come home,” Xixi cried as her tiny hand held the phone.
“It’s too late at night already. Driving home right now is dangerous for mommy. Tomorrow morning Mommy will come and accompany you,” Wen Jie held Xixi single-handedly and gently patted her tiny body. She could tell what had just happened between them, and it looked quite intense.
Gu Juexi followed Ye Yuwei and tiptoed to take over the phone from behind her.
“Sleep first, baby, Daddy and Mommy will be home when you wake up tomorrow.”
Xixi was still unsatisfied. Gu Juexi patiently held the phone to comfort her for quite some time. Ye Yuwei, who was standing aside realized that Gu Juexi had never even spoken to her this patiently!
Not once! 1
Ye Xicheng was also comforting his sister. He also thought that his old meatball had never spoken so gently to him.
Never! 2
When his daughter finally fell asleep after being comforted by him, Gu Juexi said goodnight to his mother. He then narrowed his gaze at his son to hint at him to not stay up late. He was not gentle at all. Ye Xicheng flashed him an arrogant look and burrowed himself into his blanket.
That look said, ‘Who do you think you are? Why would I still need you to care about what I do?’
Gu Juexi watched little Ye Xicheng disappear from the video and his face turned black once more. Why was this punk so different from his little girl?
Not the least bit adorable.
Gu Juexi ended the video call and looked at Ye Yuwei. Ye Yuwei held the quilt to herself tightly and gave Gu Juexi a guarded look. Gu Juexi gave a cold laugh, put down his phone and headed to the kitchen. After he opened the fridge, he found that it was empty.
Ye Yuwei took this chance to run into the bedroom and lock the door. She silently cursed Gu Juexi then tossed the soaked quilt onto the bed and went to the wardrobe to look for clothes.
But when Ye Yuwei opened the wardrobe, she stared blankly for a while.
