“I know, Mom. Weiwei is still sleeping. I will tell her to call you when she wakes up.” Not wanting to be scolded further, Gu Juexi ended the call after briefly asking about his two children.
Gu Juexi got up from the bed and went to the kitchen. He stood by the kitchen door then left the kitchen decisively after thinking about what he was going to do.
Cooking was not one of the areas he excelled in.
Gu Juexi left the kitchen and called PA Wen to make PA Wen order breakfast for him.
PA Wen who had stayed up all night to take care of Xiao Yaojing was preparing breakfast for her when Gu Juexi called. Getting Gu Juexi’s instructions, he looked in the direction that was two communities away from his house and sighed.
What was wrong with all of these people? Just spare him already!
“I am actually preparing breakfast at home. If you don’t mind, I will send it over to your hotel in a bit?” PA Wen asked.
“I mind,” said Gu Juexi monotonously. Ye Yuwei was already making a fuss about how he couldn’t cook, and she would despise him even more if she got to eat PA Wen’s cooking.
PA Wen was speechless at how fast Gu Juexi turned him down and began to think that he shouldn’t have offered.
“I will place your order now then. The hotel should deliver it to you in about an hour’s time,” PA Wen tackled Gu Juexi smoothly, and continued, “we have already arranged for the media to spread the news. And the love rumor about Mrs. Gu and Mr. Qian has been shut down completely.”
What PA Wen said reminded Gu Juexi of something. The rumor about Ye Yuwei and Qian Yikun… Could he assume that Bai Yuyan who was still on the run saw the news and threatened Ye Yuwei because of that? But if Ye Yuwei was threatened because of the love rumor and not because of Qian Yikun, why was Qian Yikun the first to show up at the scene?
Was it because he knew that Bai Yuyan was going to do something?
In other words, Qian Yikun was indeed the one who took Bai Yuyan away from prison.
“Were Bai Yuyan’s voice and hands confirmed to be ruined?” asked Gu Juexi suddenly.
PA Wen who was holding another phone helping Gu Juexi to place his breakfast order was dumbfounded for a moment. “Mr. Yu was in charge of it. He said he had taken care of it,” said PA Wen.
Gu Juexi got to the study and switched on his computer as they talked on the phone. His hand froze in the air for a second when he heard what PA Wen said. “I got it. Send breakfast as soon as possible,” Gu Juexi said and ended the call.
Feeling suspicious about how Gu Juexi asked about Bai Yuyan out of the blue, PA Wen stared at his phone curiously. PA Wen recalled how he double-checked with Yu Jiangqing about Bai Yuyan, who confirmed that he had taken care of everything.
Gu Juexi tossed his phone on the table and tapped his fingers rhythmically on the table. He reached out for a pen and paper and began to scribble.
What happened yesterday started with the quarrel between Ye Yuwei and him, which made Ye Yuwei go back to the hotel by herself. She had dinner with Qian Yikun that night and the information was quickly exposed, followed by the threat last night.
From the chain of events, it could be easily deducted that Bai Yuyan who was still hiding in the dark sent the threat. But how was someone who lost her hands and voice able to do things like that?
And Qian Yikun probably had no idea about how Gu Juexi had connected most of the dots because of what happened to Ye Yuwei.
No…
Gu Juexi scratched Bai Yuyan’s name off the paper and flung the pen away.
Gu Juexi squinted at the paper. It didn’t feel right. He was sure that something was wrong in his deduction.
It was so reasonable that it should be wrong.
