Ye Yuwei pursed her lips nervously as she looked at the group of men and their guns. Finally, she nodded and carried her daughter. She and the children would only be distractions if they stayed.
Furthermore, Mo Fei and Yuan Mo’s parents were there. Gu Juexi would be more at ease if they were with them.
Hence, Ye Yuwei took the children and left the hall from the back along with Yuan Mo’s parents.
Gu Tianmu had already anticipated that Wen Lan would bring in a team, so he had prepared enough men to handle them and apprehend Wen Lan.
When the frightened and screaming guests stood upright, it was Wen Lan’s face that turned shocked and horrified.
Wen Jie, who had just slapped Wen Lan, shook her wrist and curled her lips into a sly smile.
When Ye Yuwei exited the hall carrying Xixi, she shrieked in surprise when she saw Wen Jie in another room. She gaped and exclaimed, “Mom?”
Wen Jie approached them and embraced Xixi, who was shocked by the scene and looked at Ye Yuwei. “Gu Tianmu didn’t let me attend.”
“Er, just now, the—” Ye Yuwei stuttered, pointing in the direction of the hall behind her.
“It’s your friend,” Wen Jie said. She gently stroked Xixi, who was hugging her shoulder and sobbing. Poor baby, she was so scared.
Mo Fei?
Ye Yuwei smirked, amused. Her disguise was perfect, she looked exactly like Wen Jie. Mo Fei had chided her uncle a while ago. If he knew about the disguise, he would be so frustrated.
“Mrs. Gu, it’s almost time to go.”
Ye Yuwei glanced curiously at the waiter who came into the room. What was going on?
At that moment, Mo Fei came into the room, already changed. “Hey, what are you still doing here? Didn’t Gu Tianmu host the banquet at the ballroom on the third floor? It will start at eleven, and it’s already ten fifty, let’s go!”
Ye Yuwei and Wen Jie widened their eyes in befuddlement. What was going on?
Yuan Mo’s mother stated, “The invitations we received were all for eleven o’clock, but Captain Gu asked for our help in case you were harmed in any way. Didn’t you know about this?”
Wen Jie and Ye Yuwei exchanged glances. Very well, they had been kept in the dark.
Wen Jie’s birthday party had been set at 11 am. The media was arranged at the ballroom on the third floor too. The second floor was merely a trap to trick Wen Lan.
The setup was so ingenious and perfect that they had concealed the plan from two of the main characters.
Could they still sleep well at night?
The decoration at the ballroom on the third floor was more elaborate and luxurious than the second floor. When Ye Yuwei and Wen Jie went in, Gu Juexi and Gu Tianmu were already there, but Nalan Jing was nowhere in sight.
Gu Juexi stood on one side, holding a glass of wine and radiating a dangerous aura. The staff from the public relations department were greeting the arriving guests at the moment, and Gu Juexi could drink leisurely.
The three children ran over to the cake cart and pestered the waiters for cakes. Ye Yuwei walked to Gu Juexi and kicked his leg. “Mr. Gu, your acting is tremendous and wonderful. You are a born actor.”
Gu Juexi laughed elegantly. He curled his hand around Ye Yuwei’s waist and looked at Wen Jie who was cutting the cake, then whispered in her ear, “What can I say? You are too easy to trick.”
“Of course, otherwise, how could you get your hands on me?” Ye Yuwei snorted.
Gu Juexi rested his head on her shoulder, laughing gleefully.
Gu Juexi was very clear as to what was coming at them next. He could roughly grasp the challenge, but he didn’t know the details.
Ye Yuwei and Gu Juexi were reluctant to entertain the guests. They excused themselves and hid in the corner, where no one dared to approach them. The children, however, were having the time of their lives.
Ye Yuwei was talking to Gu Juexi when her phone rang suddenly. She retrieved her phone from the small handbag she carried.
