The Bumpy Road of Marriage: Divorce Now, Daddy
chapter-1035

Ye Yuwei looked at Gu Juexi in disbelief. At the next second, Gu Juexi turned her head to the other side and teased, “Look at you and your hypocritical eyes— dollar signs are practically engraved on them.”

Ye Yuwei yelped as she was pushed away, and wobbled before she fell back into his embrace again. She squinted and huffed, “Who are you calling a hypocrite? I say you’re unwilling to buy it for me. Besides, do you really think you can just buy this island? Maybe it belongs to some country and we are trespassing illegally.”

Ye Yuwei stressed on the last two words, emphasizing the possibility.

Gu Juexi arched his eyebrow but did not deny it. He took off his watch and shook it. The watch was spoiled from the seawater. He took his army knife out and pried it open.

“What are you doing?” Ye Yuwei squatted down and watched Gu Juexi pry his watch curiously.

Gu Juexi raised his gaze and instructed her to get some rocks. “Look for the reflective kind. I noticed a few that reflected the sunlight earlier. Those rocks contain metallic substances, and the stronger the reflection, the better.”

Ye Yuwei couldn’t put her finger on his mind but she followed his instructions anyway.

“Don’t wander too far, make sure I can see you,” Gu Juexi reminded her before she headed off.

“Roger that, sir.” Ye Yuwei saluted mockingly and began looking for the rocks. She wouldn’t leave his side even if someone paid her to.

She had to walk slowly and carefully because there were a lot of sharp pebbles and broken branches on the ground that had been pricking her feet.

When she returned with a handful of reflective pebbles and rocks, Gu Juexi had dismantled his watch completely.

Ye Yuwei put the rocks down and saw a series of equations written on the ground using tree branches.

“Help me derive these equations and figure out the results,” Gu Juexi said as he continued jotting down more equations.

Ye Yuwei scratched her head in confusion as she looked at the physics equations on the floor. She was always terrified of the physics genius, a.k.a physics maniac. Luckily, derivations were a piece of cake for her, as long as his equations were correct.

Casually, Gu Juexi had written down almost nine square formulas and Ye Yuwei made the calculations behind him. Despite the unfamiliarity of certain equations, derivations were her specialty and thus their partnership sailed smoothly.

“Crazy,” Ye Yuwei snarled as she derived the equations. In her mind, those who studied physics, especially those who had these kinds of equations imprinted in their brains were a bunch of crazy loons.

Gu Juexi chuckled. He looked at the results that Ye Yuwei produced from her derivations and asked for her necklace. “You have not seen real crazy.”

Her curiosity grew stronger. She watched him cut her necklace according to the length and cross-sectional area of the catheter that she had calculated, and tied them together. Then, he took out the hands and battery of the watch. Those tiny components seemed to have magical properties on Gu Juexi’s palm as they did their work in an orderly manner.

“Sort the metallic stone in this margin setting—30cm on the left, 25cm on the right and 10cm apart,” Gu Juexi instructed as he was busy with what was on his hand.

Ye Yuwei complied and began sorting the rocks. When she was done, Gu Juexi placed the simple device that he assembled between the metallic stones and looked at her. “Give me the wire.”

“What wire?” Ye Yuwei snarled, and squeaked when his gaze dropped to her chest.

Ye Yuwei flushed and rolled her eyes.
