Lu Qichuan looked down at his watch then back at the sea. “It will take four hours for the tsunami to subside, so I suggest you guys rest first.”
‘You can’t catch up anyway,’ Lu Qichuan thought silently.
Gu Juexi hopped onto the helicopter with a gloomy expression. Yu Jiangqing high-fived Lu Qichuan as he passed him. It was rare to see Boss looking so defeated.
It was his own fault, after all. Deception was the thing women couldn’t tolerate the most, especially when it came last minute like his did.
When Yu Jiangqing saw Ye Yuwei’s confused reaction the other day, he knew Gu Juexi didn’t tell her anything about crossing the jungle, even though it was something he had decided a while back.
The three of them boarded the helicopter. Gu Juexi had a few minor cuts on his arm and Yu Jiangqing’s shoulder had been scratched by an eagle, but his injury was not as serious as Gu Juexi’s during the previous expedition so he didn’t mind.
Lu Qichuan retrieved the first aid kit and put it on the table. He sat across from them and asked, “How was it?”
“The area is smaller than I expected, but it is a great place to set up a training base,” Yu Jiangqing said as he glanced at Gu Juexi hopefully.
“Don’t even think about it. I may have access to the area, but this is still another country’s territory.” Gu Juexi leaned back in his chair and massaged his temples agitatedly. Why was she angry?
Yu Jiangqing shrugged, expecting as much. As for the proceedings in the later phase, he just had to wait for the time to come.
“You didn’t tell your wife about this expedition?” Yu Jiangqing leaned on the couch as Lu Qichuan helped him with his wound.
Gu Juexi opened his eyes and glared at Yu Jiangqing. “It’s a simple expedition and not dangerous at all, I don’t see why it’s worth mentioning.”
Yu Jiangqing and Lu Qichuan exchanged glances as they shared the same thought. ‘Better be single when you return, no point in hurting the lady’s heart.’
Yu Jiangqing looked back at Gu Juexi again. “The point is that you guys almost died there, remember? Of course, I know you won’t die but for Ye Yuwei, a normal person living in a normal environment, this place is very dangerous. Moreover, women, they are—”
“She can’t understand it at all,” Gu Juexi interrupted.
Yu Jiangqing narrowed his eyes.
He deserved to be single with that toxic way of thinking. He really was beyond rescue.
Lu Qichuan chuckled as he helped Yu Jiangqing apply ointment on his wounds. Yu Jiangqing eventually got to his feet and took out the bottles with venom in them.
“Your Ding Ning always played with these kinds of things, aren’t you afraid that she will kill you with these poisons once she has had enough of you?” Lu Qichuan asked in amusement as he put away the first aid kit.
Yu Jiangqing looked at the bottle of venom in his hand in admiration. He stepped on the sofa and rested his elbow on his knee. “Her mission will be accomplished the day she poisons me. Besides, she’s not mine anymore. We’re getting a divorce.”
Lu Qichuan bent down and threw the first aid kit under the couch. “I’ve heard the same thing for three years now, can’t you just divorce her for real already?”
Gu Juexi glared at them in annoyance but didn’t have the mood to talk. He couldn’t understand why Ye Yuwei was angry.
It was night time when the helicopter landed in Gu Mansion. They could finally get some sleep, they were exhausted from jet lag.
Ye Yuwei invited them to stay over for the night. Mo Fei rejected, saying she was unaccustomed to staying in a house and a hotel was a better option. Ye Yuwei felt sad when she heard it, assuming she was uncomfortable with the term ‘home’, or rather disgusted with it.
Xiao Yaojing and PA Wen didn’t accept the offer either. Xiao Yaojing intended to drag PA Wen to a hotel.
