Ye Yuwei was confused. Multinational corporate? How did it relate to the matter?
“I’ll explain to you in detail when we get back, it’s hard to fill in the blanks now,” Gu Juexi said and closed his eyes. This was what he had gathered from the information that the old man provided. Now, he could piece several pieces of the puzzle together.
However, that part of the puzzle was not the one he desired.
What he wanted to know was how Ye Shu and his mother were linked.
Ye Yuwei opened her mouth to want to ask more questions but saw Gu Juexi with his eyes closed. Dejected, she remained silent.
PA Wen complained about his CEO inside his mind. CEO was not tired, he was just avoiding Madam’s questioning in the most cowardly way—pretending to sleep. Such a wimpy adult.
“Gu Juexi, stop pretending. You can just tell her straight out that you don’t want to say anything,” said Xiao Yaojing in disdain.
PA Wen bashfully looked at Xiao Yaojing. Lady, you’ve earned my respect!
Xiao Yaojing returned his gaze coldly. You were worse, wuss!
PA Wen smiled elegantly. When facing the CEO, it was not considered embarrassing to be a wuss.
Ye Yuwei stared at Gu Juexi thoughtfully then smacked his chest hard. His eyes flew open in shock.
“Wow, you are really good at pretending. I was almost fooled,” Ye Yuwei said flatly.
Gu Juexi coughed and rubbed his chest pitifully. That woman had no mercy at all.
“You can contact Nalan Chunbo and ask him to come over,” Gu Juexi ordered.
“My brother?” Ye Yuwei was confused, how did Nalan Chunbo relate to this?
“I need to know whether your auntie is still alive or not, and why Nalan Chunbo was raised by your father,” Gu Juexi said. The old man said that Ye Shu left with Ye Di. If he was not mistaken, that person was the one who took Ye Shu to America to study.
“I know about this. After my auntie gave birth to my brother, she died, and my father took him in,” Ye Yuwei explained.
“What about his father?” Gu Juexi asked directly, glancing at Ye Yuwei.
Ye Yuwei blinked. That was a good question.
“He didn’t say,” Ye Yuwei admitted. She was certainly clueless. “Do you think my brother is related to this matter now?”
“I’m not sure. My instinct tells me that this has a lot to do with Ye Shu, Ye Di and—” Wen family.
Ye Yuwei was listening carefully when Gu Juexi stopped, and it made her very curious. “And what?”
“Nothing,” said Gu Juexi quickly. He massaged his forehead. A hot wind blew in from the broken rear window.
What exactly did Ye Shu want him to find out?
Although Ye Shu was nowhere to be found, Gu Juexi was certain this show was orchestrated by Ye Shu. He was expecting him to discover something.
Was it Ye Shu? Or was it not?
At this point, he was absolutely clueless. From the bankruptcy of the Gu family to the information given by the old man; everything pointed to the Wen family. This puzzle had just become more complicated.
[The barrier that you can’t cross is the plunder for a lifetime.]
What did it mean?
Whose barrier was it?
Gu Juexi was deep in thought and suddenly looked at Ye Yuwei. His expression made Ye Yuwei nervous.
“What is the most important thing that you can’t let go of?” Gu Juexi asked suddenly.
Ye Yuwei listened to the question, alarmed.
