The man presented the items in his hand and passed it to Gu Juexi. “It’s been troublesome to meet all of them because they are all around different places, but I’ve succeeded in carrying out the mission, so here you go.”

Gu Juexi expressed his gratitude as he took the items and passed it to Ye Xicheng.

Crouching beside Gu Juexi shyly, Ye Xicheng took the items and thanked the man in his fluent English, “Thank you, Uncle Thomson.”

Gu Juexi had a brief chat with the man before he left their house.

Ye Yuwei was still stunned witnessing the exchange. She realized how incomprehensible the world of the Great God was to her.

The thundering sound of the helicopter soon disappeared. Ye Xicheng didn’t manage to get a glimpse at the item. After Thomson left, he swiftly opened the exquisitely wrapped box in his hand.

“Wow—” Ye Xicheng was mesmerized. It was a movie CD that was not out in the market yet. The cover was filled with the cast members’ autographs and most importantly, it was delivered by Thomson himself.

“Thank you, Daddy,” Ye Xicheng said in a serious and contented tone.

Gu Juexi reached over and stroked his little head. He turned around and saw Ye Yuwei standing like a statue, dazed and confused.

“Thomson Jack, the actor who won an Oscar two years in a row?” Ye Yuwei asked with her trembling lips. An Oscar-winning actor flew all the way here to deliver her son’s gift.

Gu Juexi said as he walked into the house, “I’ve worked with him on a movie before, we’re quite good buddies.”

Ye Xicheng dashed back into the house hopping and bouncing. He shrieked excitedly about the gift and kept saying he wanted to watch it with Yuan Mo.

Ye Yuwei raised her head to look at the sky where the helicopter had disappeared into. Yes, you guys must indeed be good buddies, otherwise, how could he have possibly delivered in person?

He literally came down from the sky too. You didn’t even care to treat him to a meal or something.

Gu Juexi decided to go to the resort anyway.

His plan made Ye Yuwei think that instead of Yaojing, it was almost like Mr. Gu himself was meeting the parents-in-law.

“Why are you looking at me like that?” Gu Juexi grilled while feeding his daughter lunch.

Ye Yuwei had almost finished her lunch. On the other hand, the over-excited Ye Xicheng didn’t seem to have the mood to eat for now.

“Hey, Gu Juexi, be honest with me, do you have a thing for PA Wen? It’s okay, I’m very open-minded, I can accept it,” Ye Yuwei said in a strangely serious tone.

Finally, Gu Juexi raised his head at her, but his eyes remained indifferent and emotionless. “Do you think you have a chance if I were really into him?”

“A cover-up to fool people,” Ye Yuwei blurted.

Gu Juexi smirked. “You?”

Ye Yuwei glared at Gu Juexi and his heartless response. “What’s wrong with me?”

“You’re beautiful.” The remark sounded exceptionally sincere.

Ye Yuwei was dumbfounded. ‘Mister, impromptu flirting is illegal.’

Xixi and Ye Xicheng exchanged glances as they heard their parents’ conversation. Weren’t they shy to display affection right in front of their children?

It was absolutely impossible to change Gu Juexi’s mind after he made a decision, so the trip to the resort was on.

Gu Juexi went to his office in the morning to deal with the day’s business affairs. Next, he went to pick Wen Jie up from the hospital in the afternoon. After that, he brought Ye Yuwei and the two children to the resort.

They had arrived earlier than Wen Tao and Xiao Yaojing.

Frankly, the resort was completed long ago. Everything had been ready, from the renovation to everything else. All it was waiting for was to open for business.

However, Ye Yuwei could not comprehend why Gu Juexi would rather spend money to run the resort but not start its official operation.

The employees of the resort were all there, so the cleaning and maintenance were conducted on a daily basis.

The two children were delighted. Once they stepped foot on the resort, they sprinted off to play.

“From a financial perspective, Mr. Gu, I have to remind you, you’re losing money on this place,” Ye Yuwei suggested sincerely as Gu Juexi held her hand and walked into the resort.

“I’ll earn it back.” He’d earned it all back on his wedding day.
