At the question, Gu Juexi raised his head and looked at his mother.

She was as calm and composed as she had been for the past few decades.

In a family as big and complex as the Gu family, she had no intention of forming a clique nor did she stand on any side. She chose to be on her own in her tiny space of tranquility, the space that no one was allowed to step foot into.

No one, not even Gu Tianmu.

Gu Juexi was the only one who was allowed in that space. However, she had allowed access to someone else and it was Ye Yuwei, Ye Shu’s daughter.

“Mom—” Gu Juexi opened his mouth, his throat feeling dry.

“What is it?” Wen Jie fixed her motherly gaze on her son.

“It’s nothing. You must be tired from the journey, let me help you get some rest,” Gu Juexi suggested. He got to his feet and helped Wen Jie stand up.

Wen Jie could sense his uneasiness. It was the sixth sense of a mother for her child.

The guest room that Wen Jie stayed in was next to Master Yao Lao’s room—it was her arrangement.

Gu Juexi helped his mother sit on the chair. “Weiwei had informed Master about your condition, Master said it is treatable and she can care for you. The surroundings are very peaceful and the air is very fresh here, so why don’t you stay here for a while? There’s no rush to go back.” Gu Juexi said quietly. He did not want this matter to be a burden to the lady who had had a hard time all her life.

“This place is nice,” said Wen Jie while surveying the room. The room was furnished minimally, but it was pleasing to the eye.

“Mom, please rest well. I’m going to go check on Xixi,” Gu Juexi announced. He turned around and was about to leave.

“Juexi,” Wen Jie called suddenly, startling Gu Juexi as he turned to look at her. “Do you still remember what I told you in the ancestral hall when you were young?”

When he was young? Ancestral hall?

[“Mommy, Mommy! It’s Uncle and Aunt again.” Little Gu Juexi came running from outside and threw himself into Wen Jie’s embrace.

Wen Jie patted Gu Juexi lightly. “Don’t worry, your grandmother can handle it.”

“Mommy, why do they keep coming back asking for money? Do they not have money?” Gu Juexi asked curiously as he could not comprehend the situation.

“Juexi, money is just one of the things in the material world. Sometimes, people need these materialistic things for a sense of security when they lack self-confidence or when they are restless. But I want to tell you something that I need you to remember, I want you to live your life with honesty and a clear conscience, that’s all I hope for.”]

To live my life with honesty and a clear conscience.

Gu Juexi’s hands clenched into fists. Was eloping a part of the so-called honest and clear conscience life?

“Mom, it’s always on my mind. Please rest well,” Gu Juexi said then turned around again and walked out of the room in big strides.

Wen Jie watched him go and sighed. She laid down on the bed.

Honest and clear conscience?

All her life, she had been honest with everyone, but she was indebted to him.

“If it’s true that you are back, put all the blame on me but please spare the children,” Wen Jie mumbled quietly. She felt tears flow from the corner of her eyes, and she quickly buried her face in the pillow.

When Gu Juexi entered their room, Ye Xicheng had just fallen asleep. Ye Yuwei tucked him in and looked at Gu Juexi who took a seat by the table. “Why don’t you spend some time with your mom? You have some free time now because of your injury.”

“She is tired, she wants to sleep,” muttered Gu Juexi half-heartedly, drumming his fingers against the table.

The seemingly cluttered and chaotic matter had finally settled. It was him who had avoided accepting the answers.

He was the powerful and influential heir of B City, the merciless head of the commercial world, but the divorce papers made him lose his cool.

“Sign the divorce papers, daddy,” said the 5-year-old boy.

This man had the divorce papers thrown in his face by his wife six years ago, and was now being pushed by his own son to sign the papers.

“That would make you a single-parent child,” said Gu Juexi coldly.

“Mommy said unicorns don’t exist but men like you do,” the boy leered at his father and said.

Gu Juexi’s face fell. ‘That damned woman.’

“You haven’t signed the papers,” the boy reminded as the man left. As usual, the door shut in his face.

Good lord… Dad and mom are not getting a divorce and are giving him a baby brother? How worrying!
