“Do you think you’re in a position to be concerned? I would advise you to get rid of such thoughts, or else no one can save you when you land yourself in trouble,” another maid reprimanded with a look of disdain and left with the other servants.
Xiao Lian crossed her arms angrily. She knew Gu Juexi and Ye Yuwei had gone back to R University earlier.
She really could not understand what he saw in that Ye Yuwei.
Gu Juexi placed Xixi on the bed and made space for Ye Yuwei who brought a pail of water over.
“Go and help Xicheng bathe.” Ye Yuwei sat on the bed and removed Xixi’s clothes before wiping down her body with the water she had just brought.
“No!” Ye Xicheng shouted, ran into the bathroom and slammed the door shut.
Ye Yuwei and Gu Juexi were stunned.
Gu Juexi did not intend to force his way through. He left for the study and returned with a book. He placed the book on Ye Xicheng’s bedside table before turning to leave the room.
After Ye Yuwei finished wiping Xixi’s body, she put on pajamas for her daughter and looked at Gu Juexi’s back as he walked out of the room. This was clearly the crestfallen look of a man who had been hurt by his own son.
Ye Yuwei knocked on the door and proceeded to pour away the water in the pail after Xicheng opened the door. She helped her son finish bathing and helped him put on his pajamas before wishing him goodnight and leaving the room.
After Ye Xicheng wished his mummy goodnight, he saw the book on the bedside table. It was a book on the strategies of Chinese chess. Ye Xicheng was surprised and quickly picked up the book.
He was upset about losing to Grandpa Zhou several times earlier, but didn’t expect to find this book.
Ye Xicheng thought about it and guessed it was the old meatball who had placed the book here, but that didn’t mean he had forgiven him.
When Ye Yuwei returned to the bedroom, Gu Juexi had finished showering and was lying on the bed. He only had a towel wrapped around his waist and he smiled at her flirtatiously.
Ye Yuwei walked over and glanced at his back. His back had almost fully recovered. Ye Yuwei kneeled on the bed and reached out to touch his wounds. “The effect is miraculous. Are you sure the drug is not some illegal substance?”
Gu Juexi groaned in pain. “You think the medication used by the Special Forces would be mediocre?” Gu Juexi remained lying on his front, searching for information on Marvel movie screenings on his phone.
Ye Yuwei pursed her lips. She kind of understood. Those people were putting their lives on the line, so the best drugs were reserved for them.
“But you’re no longer one of them,” Ye Yuwei reminded and brought the medicine over for Gu Juexi.
Gu Juexi froze while scrolling through his phone, seemingly considering the question seriously. “But the person who is manufacturing this medicine is a friend of mine.”
Ye Yuwei rolled her eyes.
Sorry to bother you. Just ignore my question.
“Weren’t the both of you getting along well when you both played chess together earlier? Why the sudden change in attitude once we return home?” Ye Yuwei asked, puzzled.
“Your son knows to give me respect when we’re outside.” Gu Juexi sighed and continued looking at his phone. “How many people can the hall in your School of Economics accommodate?”
“Probably around nine hundred.”
“So little?” Gu Juexi was obviously unimpressed.
“Behind the bathhouse there is a big hall that can accommodate three thousand people but that is rarely used. Why are you asking?” Ye Yuwei used gauze instead of a bandage to cover up the wound after applying the medicine.
Three thousand people. Gu Juexi was still dissatisfied.
