Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Young Mistress,” Butler Kim said hurriedly.
“Where is Gu Juexi? Where is he?” Ye Yuwei shouted in a trembling voice.
“Young Master went out as soon as he brought Mistress home. Is there anything urgent?” Butler Kim answered.
Hearing Butler Kim, Ye Yuwei wanted to go out and look for Gu Juexi.
“Young Mistress, Young Master said that you are not allowed to go out,” Butler Kim said firmly.
Slightly startled, Ye Yuwei paused her steps and turned to look at Butler Kim. Her face was ghastly pale.
Ye Yuwei was stranded in the house. In other words, she was placed under house arrest.
Butler Kim moved toward Ye Yuwei and paused his steps before Ye Yuwei as he said.
“Young Mistress, please don’t put me into trouble. It’s hard for me to explain to Young Master.”
Ye Yuwei was completely exhausted and lean against the handrail. Gu Juexi was determined and insisted on his plan. But how could he do that?
Ye Yuwei had her freedom taken away and no access to a phone. She could not help but sit quietly on the bed and hug herself tightly.
Gu Juexi had a little drink—his car reached Gu Mansion’s garage in the middle of the night.
“CEO, we have reached.” PA Wen whispered. Sitting in the car, Gu Juexi was holding his forehead as his head was killing him.
Gu Juexi opened his eyes slowly and looked at Gu Mansion. He knew that Ye Yuwei cared about him and was presently worried about him. But he simply had no choice. It was the revenge that he had planned for a decade. He would never give up the plan because of Ye Yuwei. He would solve all this in two months’ time.
He walked up the stairs slowly. It was still brightly lit downstairs but the room was pitch black.
The door was pushed open—the smell of wine filled the room and lingered in the air. Leaning against the door, Gu Juexi felt around for the light switch. When the room brightened up, Ye Yuwei looked up at Gu Juexi with her eyes red. She quickly jumped down the bed and held Gu Juexi tightly.
“Gu Juexi, can you just turn yourself in? I beg you. I will not divorce you and will listen to you moving forward. Can you surrender?” She still cared for him after all.
Gu Juexi was still leaning on the door, looking at the pale face before his eyes. Her eyes were red and swollen. He wanted to say “yes” the moment Ye Yuwei said that she would not divorce him but he could not do so as the revenge involved the lives of more than ten comrades. He was not allowed to do so. Moreover, if he turned himself in, Ye Yuwei would be put behind bars. He would definitely not allow this to happen.
Gu Juexi did not utter a word, stretched his arms and pressed her head in his embrace. He stroked her head gently wanted to comfort her and, at the same time, strengthen his determination to continue with his plan. Ye Yuwei insisted Gu Juexi to surrender himself. But he would never do that.
He carried Ye Yuwei to the bed only after she cried herself to sleep. He then sat next to her and watched her sleeping.
‘It’s just two months’ time. It will go by very fast.’ He thought to himself.
Beep! Beep!
Gu Juexi took over the laptop on the table and entered the pa.s.sword to log into a system.
[Smile: Cheng Jie is going to take action. The first thing he wants to do is to place a spy around you.
Fox: Bai Yuyan.
Smile: That’s right. It’s Bai Yuyan. He wants me to talk to you tomorrow and get Bai Yuyan to live in your house by threatening you with the evidence that you involve in money laundering together with us.]
