Ye Yuwei’s only thought for now was: My dear Mr. Gu, kindly restore your usual cold-blooded and larger-than-life image, people can’t stand you being so modest and humble!
Gu Juexi drank the water on the table. He was about to start another debate with Ye Yuwei when his phone suddenly rang. He retrieved the phone from his pocket. When he saw the caller ID on the phone screen, his usual emotionless expression appeared on his face. Gu Juexi got to his feet with the phone in his hand, eyes cold.
When Ye Yuwei turned around, Gu Juexi had gone aside to take the incoming call.
Ye Yuwei didn’t know who was on the other end of the line or what the conversation was about but she was certain of one thing. Gu Juexi wasn’t in his usual angry state, because he seemed very collected and calm.
“Did I pay to keep you guys as pets? You can’t even keep watch over a woman! I warn you, if that woman appears in front of me again, you can redeem yourself by suicide, don’t wait for me to do it for you!” Gu Juexi exclaimed and threw his phone to the ground.
Cool!
But he also needed a good slap!
In Ye Yuwei’s opinion, that phone of his was very pitiful. It had to service such a violent master for so many years and still had not retired; it must be a phone with an angel heart.
However, who was the woman he mentioned on the phone? Was she the woman who pushed her in the food alley the other day?
Gu Juexi calmed his erratic breathing and composed himself. He bent down to pick up the phone and turned around to sit beside Ye Yuwei.
Ye Yuwei didn’t dare challenge him head-on and preferred standing down when he was this furious. For two people to get along, there should be a strong side and a weak side. If two strong sides clashed together, it would only end up in a perfect storm. They’d cross that bridge when they came to it.
That was the principle she had learned recently, so she would back off when Gu Juexi was angry.
“What happened? What woman?” Ye Yuwei asked curiously.
Gu Juexi’s irritated mood had calmed down, and the gentleness in Ye Yuwei’s question lifted his mood further. That was probably the thing he liked most about Ye Yuwei now.
She could usually execute an attack on him just by pissing him off. Now, when something did happen, she knew how to rein her sassiness in.
“You don’t know who she is, so you wouldn’t know even if I tell you,” Gu Juexi said while raising an eyebrow.
“The woman who tried to kill me, do you know who she is?” Ye Yuwei asked curiously, “And do I know her too?”
Gu Juexi did not admit or deny anything.
Based on his silence, Ye Yuwei knew for sure that this source was reliable.
When she thought of every single woman around her who was also associated with Gu Juexi, one name came to mind: “Was it Yu Sha-sha?”
Gu Juexi’s hand paused mid-air. His beautiful eyes revealed an undisguised mockery, “What are you, a screenplay writer? How do you come up with such weird ideas?”
Ye Yuwei was burned simply because of her mercy to this man.
“Who else if not Yu Sha-sha? Yes, I write screenplay, so what? That writer, Dou something, also loves to use this kind of plot, so?” Ye Yuwei rebutted stubbornly.
Gu Juexi looked at his wife with a smile on his face and Ye Yuwei returned the stare fiercely.
Ye Yuwei eventually had to admit her loss in the staring contest though, as that man’s eyes were so big they defied the natural laws of human anatomy. In her mind, she cursed him: You are the biggest nitwit in the entire universe, when will your time of death be?
