Chapter 754: Ye Yuwei’s Hypothesis

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

At the mention of Auntie Mao, Ye Yuwei’s expression changed subtly; she had yet to mention the matter to Gu Juexi.

At the moment, even PA Wen who was gloating on the side also had a change in expression as he bowed his head in silence.

Gu Juexi looked at their reactions and paused for a moment. His dark eyes narrowed in warning. “What happened?”

As Gu Juexi said this, he felt uneasy.

Ye Yuwei’s imposing aura when squaring up to Gu Juexi just a moment ago had completely disappeared as she bowed her head, unsure about how to bring up the subject. After giving the matter some thought, she decided to face reality.

“PA Wen, you go back first. Regarding the shares of the commercial property, you just keep watch over it first. My brother is there, so there shouldn’t be any problems,” Ye Yuwei said.

PA Wen gave a slight nod. Naturally, he was aware that staying here at the time wouldn’t be the best option for him.

After PA Wen left, Ye Yuwei picked up the crutch and got up. Then she went to take a look at the two sleeping children before asking Butler Kim to take them back.

After ending her conversation with Butler Kim, Ye Yuwei walked over to sit at the edge of Gu Juexi’s bed once more, holding the phone in her hand, her fingertips turning slightly white.

Gu Juexi’s eyes fell on Ye Yuwei’s hand. “Did something happen to Auntie Mao?”

That was his guess, but it was based on the signal that Ye Yuwei had given him.

All the while Ye Yuwei’s fingers kept digging onto the mobile phone in her hand as she softly said, “After you left, I always felt it was quite strange. I didn’t understand why Auntie Mao chose that moment to tell you about the matter; why she told you about it the day before the Bai family’s meeting–I had wanted to ask Auntie Mao about it, but by the time I got there, Auntie Mao was already…” As Ye Yuwei said this, she couldn’t continue any further.

Gu Juexi’s body became tense, and the hand that had been placed on the quilt clenched slightly.

Ye Yuwei raised her head and saw Gu Juexi’s emotions that were stretched taut. She slowly reached out to hold his hand. “Auntie Mao’s funeral has yet to be arranged. Mother and I were saying that no matter what, we must wait for you to come back.”

Auntie Mao was someone very special to Gu Juexi. After all, he was raised by Auntie Mao and she had cared deeply for Gu Juexi.

Ye Yuwei reached out and pressed Gu Juexi to her shoulder. Auntie Mao was someone very important to him–she could understand that feeling. However, since Auntie Mao was so important to Gu Juexi, she wouldn’t be able to understand the extent of Gu Juexi’s pain.

“Bring Xixi over here,” Gu Juexi suddenly said.

Ye Yuwei was stunned for a moment, but she still nodded. She then went to carry Xixi, who was about to wake up, and passed her to Gu Juexi.

Gu Juexi carefully took over carrying his daughter, then hugged her tightly in his arms.

Xixi was different from Ye Yuwei. Xixi was the daughter of Gu Juexi. If Ye Yuwei was the salvation of Gu Juexi, then Xixi would be the hope of Gu Juexi.

Gu Juexi spoilt his daughter to no end. As long as he and his daughter were together, she would definitely be in his arms.

This wasn’t something that Ye Yuwei could get jealous of.

Gu Juexi carried his daughter in one hand and clutched Ye Yuwei’s hand in the other.

“What do you want to say?” Gu Juexi’s voice became slightly hoarse; it was clear that the calmness that he was portraying at that moment was merely a pretense.

Ye Yuwei’s eyes became slightly overcast before she finally said: “I don’t know whether I was overthinking things. I had asked Butler Kim whether there was anyone who had gone to see Auntie Mao during those few days. Butler Kim said that only Gu Tianmu and the mother-daughter pair of Aunt Gu had been there.”

Gu Juexi did not speak, but bowed his head and kissed his daughter’s head.

“I am not excusing Gu Tianmu, but I was just thinking that all of this was too coincidental. Moreover, Gu Tianmu was also raised by Auntie Mao. No matter what Gu Tianmu had done, Auntie Mao would not say anything against Gu Tianmu in front of you, would she?” Ye Yuwei, upon seeing that Gu Juexi had calmed down, told him what she was thinking.
