Ye Yuwei was still thinking about the problem when she returned home. Gu Tianmu was arguing with Wen Jie about Nalan Jing’s birthday gift, or rather, his furious arguments fell on Wen Jie’s deaf ears.
Nalan Jing had given her a diamond necklace, and Wen Jie loved it for its simplicity and style. When Nalan Jing gave the necklace to her, he had stated clearly that the present was on behalf of Ye Di.
He bought the necklace according to the description Ye Di told him years ago. He merely represented Ye Di to give Wen Jie the present that she would have liked.
Therefore, not only Wen Jie would accept it, but she would also wear it often.
Her persistent attitude annoyed Gu Tianmu. Wen Jie didn’t wear the jade bracelet he had given her, but she wore the necklace from Nalan Jing. What did that mean?
Wen Jie was so irritated by Gu Tianmu that she went upstairs. Gu Tianmu released his anger by snarling and kicking the side table, then he stormed back into his room.
Ye Yuwei watched the scene in amusement.
“Bravo,” Gu Juexi drawled sarcastically. That was his evaluation of his own father.
It made Ye Yuwei smirk. Ye Xicheng had given his dad a similar evaluation too.
Ye Yuwei went up the stairs with Gu Juexi and said flatly, “If I’m not mistaken, my uncle said that the necklace was sent on behalf of my aunt, that’s why mom loves it so much.”
“Serves him right. He gets angry for no reason, so he deserves to be ignored,” Gu Juexi scoffed and went into their room.
Ye Yuwei followed him. “You were the same once.”
Gu Juexi turned his head and glanced at her, gesturing for her to talk to Auntie Yuan.
Ye Yuwei nodded and went down the stairs again.
Auntie Yuan was helping Auntie Qian prepare dinner in the kitchen. When Ye Yuwei asked her, she said with a gentle smile, “You and Young Master still remember? Wait a minute, I’ll get his contact number for you.”
“Okay, thank you, Auntie Yuan.” Ye Yuwei looked at Auntie Yuan, who went to take her phone, and looked back at Auntie Qian to see what she was preparing.
“Back in those days, I enjoyed and still enjoy watching you and Young Master bickering and joking with each other, it was so amusing. Now I get to see the same sight between Madam and Master, the house has become lively,” Auntie Qian said while chuckling. “Master is quite a troublemaker,” Auntie Qian whispered in delight.
Ye Yuwei picked up a tomato and bit it as she laughed. “That was different. Gu Juexi used to be so harsh and cruel. Look at Dad, he’s practically putting Mom on the altar and worshiping her,” Ye Yuwei pouted and complained, sounding jealous.
Her comment made Auntie Qian laugh even louder.
“I plan to visit Auntie Mao’s grave tomorrow, it’s been a while. I want to tell her that everything is fine, and she can rest in peace,” Auntie Qian said and sighed in relief. She picked up a cut piece of Chinese sausage and put it in Ye Yuwei’s mouth.
Ye Yuwei accepted the offer with a smile. “Let’s do it this weekend, I’ll go with you. I haven’t visited Auntie Mao in a long time,” Ye Yuwei mumbled while chewing the sausage.
Auntie Yuan came back with her phone, showing the phone number on the screen. Ye Yuwei hurriedly jotted it down and nabbed another piece of sausage before heading upstairs.
Auntie Yuan smiled as she watched Ye Yuwei go up the stairs. “Young Mistress is becoming happier and happier as time goes by. This house is finally alive again.”
“Yes, I still remember vividly when Young Mistress first came to this house. She was still a college student, young and lively, she was the life of the party. Then her laughter was buried deep under Young Master’s troublemaking shenanigans. Luckily, it’s all over now,” Auntie Qian sighed. Ten years had passed in the blink of an eye.
Ye Yuwei went into her room and handed the phone number to Gu Juexi. “Here it is. When do you plan to meet him?”
