Chapter 1059: Even When You Are An Old ManTranslator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Ye Yuwei thought about it as she put the vegetables on the table, washed her hands, tidied up her clothes and walked towards the living room.
Ye Yuwei intentionally walked pa.s.sed Xiao Lian and sat beside Gu Juexi. “You don’t have to wait here, go be busy elsewhere.”
Gu Juexi s.h.i.+fted his gaze to Ye Yuwei briefly then went back to reading his doc.u.ments.
Xiao Lian trembled slightly at Ye Yuwei’s remark and nodded vigorously. “Yes.”
Ye Yuwei took the doc.u.ments on the table and leaned against the sofa. Several of the doc.u.ments had been scrutinized and signed by Gu Juexi.
“I detect the sour scent of jealousy. What’s wrong, did you misplace your confidence?” Gu Juexi mocked in a snarky tone without looking up.
The statement held obvious contempt for Xiao Lian.
“Invest in the beauty industry,” Ye Yuwei said suddenly.
“It’s too late for you to get plastic surgery.” Gu Juexi looked up from his doc.u.ments and gazed at Ye Yuwei, then put his doc.u.ments down and lifted her chin. “Besides, I’m already used to this face. I don’t want to change it.”
Ye Yuwei rolled her eyes and slapped his hand away as she huffed, “What I meant is we should disfigure you to avoid attracting b.u.t.terflies even when you are an old man. Butler Kim, am I right?”
Butler Kim blinked innocently as he walked past them.
“Mommy, what do you mean by attracting b.u.t.terflies?” Xixi asked as she played with her brother.
Ye Yuwei was speechless at her daughter’s naivety.
Even when I am an old man?
Ye Yuwei scored a perfect ten in destroying a man’s dignity.
Gu Juexi leaned close to Ye Yuwei and whispered flirtatiously, “Why? Did I not satisfy you this morning?”
Ye Yuwei pushed him away agitatedly. This man’s mind had been corrupted after he came back.
Despite being pushed away, Gu Juexi was in high spirits. He continued looking at his doc.u.ments and uttered, “Beware of the tigress in the house.”
“Tigress? Where?” Xixi recoiled in shock as she glanced around anxiously.
Ye Yuwei and Ye Xicheng were dumbfounded at her reaction.
My dear sister, how clueless can you be?
Gu Juexi looked at his darling daughter who stumbled towards him. He reached over and picked her up, putting her on his lap and kissing her chubby cheek. “My little princess, you don’t have to worry about the tigress.”
Ye Xicheng ran to Ye Yuwei and leaned against her leg as he shot a fierce glare at the old meatball. “Dum-dum sister, the t.i.tle ‘the little princess’ is only for idiots,” Ye Xicheng provoked mockingly.
Xixi grew fl.u.s.tered and her eyes bulged. “Daddy, I’m not an idiot!” Xixi shrieked.
Gu Juexi started to panic. Yes, that demon child was his own son.
Ye Xicheng laughed ecstatically—Gu Juexi was in for it now.
“Xixi is angry! Very angry!” Xixi huffed, exasperated. She hopped off of Gu Juexi’s lap and squeezed herself into the corner angrily.
Gu Juexi ma.s.saged his head dejectedly, suddenly feeling a headache coming on.
Ye Xicheng’s laughter grew louder.
Ye Yuwei embraced her son as she leaned against the sofa. She gazed at the frustrated Gu Juexi who wanted to throttle his son and smiled gleefully.
Gu Juexi turned to his daughter who sat on the floor with her arms crossed. He thought for a second before approaching the little girl, crouching behind her and tapping her shoulder lightly.
Before Ye Yuwei’s return, not once would he have imagined living like this: life with a son and daughter, a life involving coaxing his own daughter.
Undeniably though, he enjoyed this life very much.
