“Why did you give PA Wen leave?” asked Ye Yuwei curiously as she passed Gu Juexi a peeled apple. The PA Wen she knew was a workaholic who didn’t take leave.

“To go after his future wife.”

“Yaojing?” Ye Yuwei asked in disbelief, surprised at how considerate Gu Juexi was being. “Yaojing and I had lunch together yesterday and bumped into PA Wen and his junior...” Ye Yuwei told Gu Juexi about everything that happened yesterday.

Gu Juexi listened to Ye Yuwei quietly. He used to find it was annoying when a woman was chatty, but he actually felt happy that Ye Yuwei was sharing things with him now.

So this was how long-lasting couples spent their lives together.

Ye Yuwei went on and on, and asked when she noticed that Gu Juexi’s expression changed, “am I talking too much?”

Gu Juexi didn’t answer but pulled Ye Yuwei closer and held her tightly, not letting her leave.

“Why are you such a cactus? What did I say to make you so angry?” Gu Juexi asked as he held Ye Yuwei.

“I was only allowed up to three words before you got angry with me,” said Ye Yuwei through clenched teeth.

Gu Juexi didn’t know what to say. He deserved all this.

“Can we forget the past already?” Gu Juexi groaned softly. It felt like a knife stabbing into his heart every time Ye Yuwei brought up the past.

Ye Yuwei let out a humph. Forget the past? Why should she let him go so easily? She had plenty of things to bring up.

Ye Yuwei was at the hospital with Gu Juexi until noon when Ye Xicheng called to ask her to go home.

Gu Juexi’s face fell as Ye Yuwei began to pack.

“I was thinking about sending them to school sometime in July or August, but I am really concerned about Xixi’s health,” said Ye Yuwei as she finished packing and put her stuff on the table.

“Then send just Ye Xicheng.” Gu Juexi made his decision instantly.

Ye Yuwei fell silent for a moment, realizing that father and son would probably never reconcile.

“Can you be kinder to Xicheng? He’s your son,” said Ye Yuwei.

Gu Juexi scoffed. That boy wasn’t kind to him either.

Ye Yuwei didn’t bother much about their silent battle. “I will go now,” said Ye Yuwei after she finished checking Gu Juexi’s drip.

Gu Juexi hated that Ye Yuwei had to leave, but what the little meatball said on the phone was an obvious threat to him. Again, he was to blame. Why did he have to get the divorce certificate back then?

Ye Yuwei bumped into Yu Jiangqing on her way out.

“Hey sister-in-law, going back now?” asked Yu Jiangqing smilingly.

Ye Yuwei secretly wished that Yu Jiangqing and Gu Juexi weren’t this close, because nothing good happened when they got together.

Ye Yuwei nodded at Yu Jiangqing in greeting before leaving the hospital. She wondered what the two were going to talk about in the ward.

Yu Jiangqing entered the ward, checked that Ye Yuwei had left then sat down beside Gu Juexi’s bed and passed him a bag with the words private and confidential on it.

“As requested— everything Ye Shu said as an informant. Read it quickly so I can send it back before the captain notices,” said Yu Jiangqing quietly, “it seems unlikely that Ye Shu could still be alive, but we also can’t think of anyone else who is capable of scheming against you.”

“Gu Tianmu is checking on Ye Shu too,” said Gu Juexi as he opened the bag.
