Gu Juexi took Ye Yuwei’s phone in his hand, but he did not look at Ye Yuwei. He hung up on the call that she had just made and then threw her cell phone to PA Wen.
“Let’s not talk about whether the orphanage had offended anyone first. You have already offended me,” Gu Juexi said coldly as he stared directly at the fat police officer.
“Gu—Gu Juexi…” The fat police officer answered in a shaky voice.
Bai Yuyan who was parked nearby saw Gu Juexi entering the scene. She slammed her hand against the steering wheel and then quickly drove away from that location.
As she was driving away, she made a phone call. “Uncle Gu, I am Yuyan. There have been some problems with the location of the studio. No, no, it is not Gu Juexi. It is Ye Yuwei. She is back and it seems like she is also interested in the same location. Why don’t we forget about this location?”
The person on the other side of the line said something and a smug look appeared on Bai Yuyan’s face.
“Ah, Uncle Gu, are you sure it would be okay to do this?” Bai Yuyan pretended to be sympathetic. “After all, you know how precious Ye Yuwei is to Brother Gu.”
Bai Yuyan drove off quickly.
PA Wen made a phone call before coming back to return the cell phone to Ye Yuwei. “Young mistress.”
After returning the cell phone to Ye Yuwei, PA Wen looked at Gu Juexi and said, “CEO, I have already made the phone call. Captain Wu from Interpol will be coming over in a while.”
Ye Yuwei smirked as she held her cell phone tightly in her hand. She glanced at the man who had left her by the side of the road today and then turned around to look at the matron. “Matron, we should find a place for the children can settle down first.”
The matron sighed. “Why don’t we just give up this location and just sell this place to her? It is not good for the children to get this kind of scare all the time.”
“No, this place should never be sold to her,” Ye Yuwei hurriedly said. “Matron, don’t worry. I will handle this matter.”
Gu Juexi had been quietly watching Ye Yuwei from where he was standing. He watched as Ye Yuwei tried to appease the children, he watched as Ye Yuwei appeased the matron.
Why didn’t this woman try to appease him then?
Forget it, this woman had always been heartless.
PA Wen looked at the CEO’s expression and he knew that the CEO was so jealous that he could no longer think straight anymore.
As PA Wen was thinking about it, his phone suddenly rang. PA Wen looked at the caller ID and quickly pa.s.sed the phone over to Gu Juexi. “CEO, the chairman is calling.”
Gu Juexi squinted his eyes before taking the cell phone and answering the call.
“Gu Juexi, are you trying to pick a fight with me?” The man on the other side of the line said with a cold voice.
“Chairman Gu, you have already lived and build your reputation up. To think that you could still take part in bribery even with your kind of status,” Gu Juexi replied without any hesitation. “And, don’t put it so nicely. You are not worth my time.”
PA Wen was speechless.
That was your biological father on the line.
Forget it, the CEO did not intend to acknowledge his father anyway.
Ye Yuwei lifted her head and looked at the man who was still swearing on the phone. She could still remember the photograph in her mother-in-law’s photo alb.u.m. It was of a little boy who was holding onto a soft toy, standing at the door waiting for his father to come home.
That little boy who had been looking forward to his father’s return.
However, it was all broken now. That was why he could say those words to his father.
He was not cold and ruthless from the start. It was the circ.u.mstances that made him this way.
He was just acting like this for his own protection.
This was something that she did not understand in the past. However, after being alone outside and facing everyone by herself for the past few years, she finally understood that when facing everyone’s attack on your own, being cold and ruthless was the only way to protect oneself.
