Gu Juexi cocked an eyebrow, actually quite pleased. “Then I’ll die on your body—”
Gu Juexi’s sentence was cut off as Ye Yuwei pressed her hand to his mouth. Her cheeks were now redder than Gu Juexi’s, but while Gu Juexi’s redness came from his fever, Ye Yuwei’s was from embarrassment.
Gu Juexi’s lips were covered by Ye Yuwei’s alcohol-tainted hand and he felt like he was drunk. This bewitching woman underneath him was his.
This fine figure had born his children before.
“My wife, give me another child,” Gu Juexi murmured and pressed a kiss to her cheek, then her lips.
Ye Yuwei shivered. “Are Xixi and Xicheng not enough?” Ye Yuwei questioned, her eyes darkening with an emotion she did not wish Gu Juexi to see.
Gu Juexi recalled that she had mostly brought up the children herself and felt that she was still holding a grudge against him for that, so he replied, “They’re enough.”
Although his son was a rascal, having a cute and delicate daughter was enough.
The two of them had gone from bringing down a fever to an emotional moment.
“Ahem—”
Ye Yuwei was saying something to Gu Juexi when a sudden cough from the Old Captain interrupted. Ye Yuwei was shocked and immediately pushed Gu Juexi away, crawling down from the bed and tidying her appearance hastily.
Meanwhile, Gu Juexi’s gentle expression instantly changed to a menacing one.
Old Captain waltzed in and chuckled, but it quickly turned into a kind smile when he turned to Ye Yuwei. Ye Yuwei could not muster up a smile though, she felt too awkward. Both of them had definitely been caught in the act, hadn’t they?
“There’s someone who wants to meet you,” Old Captain said heavily and continued quickly, “Behave yourself, this man isn’t someone you can simply bark at.”
Old Captain was extremely serious and Gu Juexi understood what he meant. Old Captain then turned to Ye Yuwei. “Lassie, come with me.”
Ye Yuwei nodded her head and followed Old Captain out. However, when she walked out of the room, she was stunned to see who was entering.
That was—
The person she frequently saw on the television, especially on news channels.
Ye Yuwei recalled Old Captain’s shocked expression and gulped, “Gu Juexi’s mouth can be rude sometimes, will he be okay?”
Old Captain laughed, “He’ll be fine. He argues with me often but he still has discipline.”
“But Gu Juexi may not be suitable to return anymore, he’s really against it.” Although Ye Yuwei argued with him frequently, she still worried about her husband.
“I know,” Old Captain said while staring at the lady in front of him. “That lad probably didn’t tell you, but he was a proud and ambitious kid when he was young. He was not even twenty at the time but he had already completed missions most people couldn’t; he was a wonder in the forces. Of course, there were people that envied him so when Cheng Jie’s forces were mostly annihilated, it gave those envious bastards a chance.”
Although Ye Yuwei was not clear about the situation, she could guess.
“That boy was arrogant. At that time it was definitely we old ones that were unclear about what was happening when we gave the orders. It was surprising when he brought Lu Qichuan and Song Helian back, but no one cared about those things,” Old Captain reminisced, his tone filled with guilt.
Yes, Gu Juexi was that arrogant.
