Whispers resonated across the auditorium. Ye Yuwei blushed bright red, her cheeks burning.
This was so embarra.s.sing!
Next was their wedding photo. Gu Juexi looked back at the display and said, “You wrote my name in your book, and I wanted to write your name in my marriage certificate, so I did.”
The woman in the photo had bright eyes and a sweet smile, ill.u.s.trating her happiness in that joyful moment perfectly.
The man, on the other hand, was the exact opposite.
Luckily, they had a chance to start over.
“I’m sorry, I’m not a good husband, and I lost you in the end,” Gu Juexi uttered, slowly s.h.i.+fting his gaze to Ye Yuwei, who was feeling like she wanted to escape from the hall.
“Then, you told me you were tired, that you were exhausted. I panicked, I was scared, but I was Gu Juexi, and Gu Juexi cannot be scared. Gu Juexi is a G.o.dlike figure in everyone’s mind. He is supreme, he is divine, and even Gu Juexi thinks that way. Therefore, he can only use extremes, and there’s no way out,” Gu Juexi declared. One step at a time, he walked down the stage, approaching the woman who looked stunned.
Ye Yuwei stared at the man who was getting closer to her. She was in so much shock, she wasn’t even aware when they carried her son away.
Ye Xicheng frowned. Why were they carrying him away?
“My extreme measures don’t have any effect except pus.h.i.+ng you further away from me.”
It was as if a s.h.i.+eld surrounded Ye Yuwei because she couldn’t hear anything other than his voice. Her brain was malfunctioning and she couldn’t process anything at the moment. The troublemaker didn’t plan to let her go after all.
But why was he saying this all of a sudden?
“Gu Juexi.” Ye Yuwei’s lips twitched slightly, mumbling a warning under her breath, “That’s enough.”
The response she got was an amused chuckle.
Gu Juexi stood upright and looked at the crowd, “So, please stop saying Gu Juexi is a G.o.d, Gu Juexi is amazing and so on. Gu Juexi is also a human, in fact, in Mrs. Gu’s own words, he has a below-zero EQ. My point is, I just want to tell those who wors.h.i.+p Mr. Gu to stop. Mr. Gu is very miserable whenever Mrs. Gu is jealous.”
Ye Yuwei looked at him in bewilderment. Was he possessed or something?
This didn’t sound like him at all.
Xiao Yaojing felt like she was sitting on pins and needles. This speech was downright overkill.
Gu Juexi turned around and returned to the stage while squinting at the shocked ladies below. This was the effect he wanted.
“The moral of this story is to tell you that unrealistic fantasies are nothing but a waste of time. Anything you do in your fantasies are merely illusions, and nothing is real, not even your business. The name Gu Juexi will not add any glory to your future career, so please stop wasting your time on someone you know has nothing to do with you. The time that you spend wors.h.i.+pping me can be used to think of a good way to make money,” Gu Juexi said. He looked down to see his daughter hugging his legs, and reached out and stroked her head.
“Do you know that today’s speech is being broadcasted live? Your man plans to eliminate all potential rivals through this speech,” Xiao Yaojing whispered in Ye Yuwei’s ear.
Ye Yuwei chuckled. Why did she feel that he would attract more followers after today’s speech instead?
“I hope that I am the rival you want to surpa.s.s and not the target you want to marry,” Gu Juexi continued. “Because it’s too late.”
