Chapter 1057: The Little Dude Upstairs Is Definitely His SonTranslator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After Ye Yuwei made the decision, she hailed a taxi back to Gu Mansion. She had firmly refused Gu Juexi’s suggestion to let her drive to work.
To not drive when she didn’t have to was her way of respecting mankind. When she took her driving test, despite pa.s.sing it eventually, the first advice her coach told her was: Cherish the lives of others, as the Chinese saying ‘saving one’s life is better than setting up a seven-tiered Buddhist paG.o.da’ 1.
Therefore, she would rather ride a taxi than drive.
Gu Juexi had already woken up when Ye Yuwei reached. He was drinking water in the kitchen when he heard Ye Yuwei’s footsteps and turned around to look at her. “Where have you been?”
Ye Yuwei changed into the indoor slippers by the door. “I went to see Brother and b.u.mped into Wen Shan there, so we chatted for a while.” Ye Yuwei entered the house and watched Gu Juexi exit the kitchen. “Where are the two munchkins?”
“Napping,” Gu Juexi replied and fell back onto the sofa. “The hospital called just now— Gu Tianmu is temporarily out of critical condition.”
“That’s great news!” Ye Yuwei exclaimed excitedly. “You don’t have to worry then.”
“Who’s worried?” Gu Juexi snarled in an irritated tone as he switched on the TV.
Ye Yuwei was dumbfounded at his reply.
The little dude upstairs was definitely his son, no doubt about it.
Equally stubborn and in denial.
“Oh yeah, Mom went to visit him,” Gu Juexi remarked and s.h.i.+fted his gaze to Ye Yuwei.
“Really? See, I told you Mom still has lingering feelings towards him, especially now that we finally found out that he is innocent,” Ye Yuwei said with a smile as she sat beside Gu Juexi and grabbed a pillow.
Gu Juexi smirked. “You knew it all along, didn’t you?”
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have said that when she exited the ward.
Ye Yuwei smiled sheepishly.
Gu Juexi reached over and pulled her into his embrace. “Where do all your silly ideas come from?”
“From fighting with you,” Ye Yuwei giggled as she laid her head on his shoulder.
Gu Juexi glared at Ye Yuwei. “Go and wake the kids up, otherwise they can’t sleep at night,” Gu Juexi nudged Ye Yuwei and demanded.
Ye Yuwei narrowed her eyes at him and got to her feet. When she reached the back of the sofa, she leaned on it and said, “Oh yes, since there is nothing much for you to do these days, why don’t you give PA Wen a few days off?”
Gu Juexi turned his head to look at Ye Yuwei and arched an eyebrow.
Ye Yuwei quickly pressed a kiss to his lips and declared, “Deal!”
Gu Juexi chuckled as he watched her run off. Was that even a question?
Come to think of it, he had been absent from work for the past few months. Wen Tao had a lot on his plate during that period besides having his own matters to deal with. Maybe it would be best to give him a break.
However, he needed another secretary when Wen Tao was not around.
As Gu Juexi thought about his options, his gaze s.h.i.+fted upstairs instinctively. It was not compulsory for her to be in the bank, so why not a.s.sign her as his secretary so he could flirt with her whenever he liked?
What a great idea!
Ye Yuwei entered the children’s room. It was easier to wake Ye Xicheng up despite his moody att.i.tude after being woken up. Just like his father, he would only attack you with his deadly glare which you could avoid by ignoring him.
On the other hand, Xixi was a handful. She would throw a tantrum if her nap was cut short.
Ye Yuwei watched Ye Xicheng climb down his bed by himself. He was frowning as if something was bothering him. Ye Yuwei was delighted at his reaction because whatever he was worried about was going to happen soon.
