Ye Yuwei wanted to say more but gave in to Gu Juexi’s request as she could sense he didn’t want to talk.
Ye Yuwei gave Gu Juexi the space he needed and got up to go back to the bedroom.
When Ye Yuwei reached the door, she turned to look at him and saw him leaning against the sofa, massaging his nose ridge.
‘Just like a trapped lion.’
Indeed, Gu Juexi was trapped now.
The Bai family, Qian Yikun, and Gu Tianmu. All these unrelated people and unrelated matters were coming together at the same time.
It was as if there was a mastermind behind all this, directing these matters at Gu Juexi with a sole purpose of bringing him down. He had to find a solution to all of these seemingly unrelated matters quickly.
Was it the Bai family, Qian Yikun, or his own biological father?
He had no clue at all.
Gu Juexi reached inside his pocket and pulled out a wallet. He raised his brows and took out a few notes to scribble.
The three notes were filled with words and were then folded into three hearts. The three hearts took Gu Juexi the entire night to fold, but he did so with great patience.
It was almost dawn when Ye Yuwei finally fell asleep. Just when she dozed off, she was jolted awake by a loud crash from outside. Ye Yuwei jumped out of the bed and ran out of the room barefooted.
She entered the kitchen and saw Gu Juexi watching a pan spinning on the floor beside his foot, raw eggs spilling out of it. Next to the pan was a shattered bowl and the gas on the stove was still on.
Ye Yuwei hastily stepped over the mess on the floor and turned off the stove by holding onto Gu Juexi’s arms and stepping on his feet to avoid the broken pieces.
“What were you doing? Were you trying to blow up the place?” Ye Yuwei was furious at being woken up so abruptly.
Gu Juexi frowned at her bare feet and immediately carried her out of the kitchen.
“Making breakfast,” Gu Juexi answered tonelessly.
Ye Yuwei was dumped onto the couch, then Gu Juexi turned around and walked back into the kitchen.
‘Making breakfast?’
Ye Yuwei looked at the sky outside and sat up, watching the man standing next to the pan and frowning at it. “CEO Gu, do you know your own limits?”
Gu Juexi felt his hands were too precious to fix this so he went out to call PA Wen to ask him to come over.
While waiting for his call to get through, he said, “Ye Yuwei, you acted like I wronged you by calling you a hypocrite. A young maiden would definitely notice my intentions, okay?”
The call went through and Gu Juexi bluntly told PA Wen to come over to the apartment then hung up.
PA Wen was speechless. ‘It’s such a small matter, can’t you settle it on your own?’
“Gu Juexi, can’t you clean up yourself?” Ye Yuwei asked disapprovingly.
“Do you know how much my hands are worth?” Gu Juexi retorted.
The two childish people who would feel uneasy if they did not bicker to the extent that PA Wen thought the CEO had burned down the kitchen again. When PA Wen arrived, he realized the two had started a war.
