The Bumpy Road of Marriage: Divorce Now, Daddy
chapter-1219

After Nalan Chunbo took the box from Le Tian, Ye Xicheng quickly took it from him. The model was quite large, about half a meter long, but Ye Xicheng insisted on carrying it by himself.

Nalan Chunbo and Wen Shan didn’t say anything. Le Tian sent the guests to the door and turned to the somber-looking Wen Shan. “The manager deposited the money just now. I’ll take you out to comfort you from the sorrow of the one-sided love that ended before it started.”

The one-sided love that ended before it started?

The sounds inside the apartment were muted behind the closed door.

Nalan Chunbo couldn’t describe his feelings. Maybe he was relieved upon hearing her decision to give up, that she finally realized that liking him was a pure waste of time.

“Uncle, the lift is here,” Ye Xicheng shouted from inside the elevator. His uncle seemed to be in a daze. He tiptoed and pressed the button to keep the door open.

Nalan Chunbo regained his composure and hurriedly entered the elevator with Xixi in tow.

Yes, this was good news. This was what he wanted.

By the time they reached Gu Mansion, Yuan Mo was already there. He sprinted excitedly to the door and shouted, “Xicheng, Xixi!”

“Brother Yuan Mo! Uncle, let me down,” Xixi screamed with a grin. She slipped out of Nalan Chunbo’s embrace, grabbed the big box from her brother’s hands and presented it to Yuan Mo like a treasure chest. “This is a gift that my brother exclusively picked for you, we went to many places for this!”

Ye Xicheng rolled his eyes at his sister. ‘Should I thank you for not saying that this was a gift from you?’

Meanwhile, Yuan Mo’s gaze was completely focused on Xixi. He wiped the sweat off her forehead and accepted the big box from her.

Xixi was all smiles and urged Yuan Mo to quickly unbox his gift, anticipating a large smile from him when he saw it.

Ye Xicheng went to the kitchen. He asked Auntie Qian for a glass of water and a bottle of milk for his sister. Xixi looked at her brother in agitation.

“I want it chilled.” Xixi put her hands behind her back, refusing to take the milk.

“No.” Ye Xicheng glared at his sister. He never bowed down to her stubbornness for things like this.

“I don’t want to drink then. Just let me die of thirst,” Xixi wailed and hid behind Yuan Mo.

Nalan Chunbo watched the three children, then decided to leave them to the servants in the living room and went upstairs to get some rest.

The meeting with Wen Shan today was so unexpected that it gave him a headache.

It was as if you tried so hard to delete her from your memory, but her occasional appearance made you realize instantly that your efforts were in vain.

It was a harsh and painful truth.

Nalan Chunbo went back to his room. Just as Ye Yuwei opened her door, she saw his back in his doorway. She opened her mouth but before she could say anything, he shut the door.

Ye Yuwei looked back at Gu Juexi who was behind her and asked, “What’s going on?”

Gu Juexi said flatly as he pushed her out of the room, “Perhaps, the world is really that small, and B City is even smaller than you expected.”

Ye Yuwei frowned as she pondered his words. Did her brother really meet Wen Shan?

When they reached downstairs, Yuan Mo was thanking Ye Xicheng for the precious gift and the three children were having the time of their lives. It seemed like they could be relieved from their duties for a while.

Her daughter was Ye Yuwei’s main concern though as the girl might lack morale in front of the aforementioned guest.

Gu Juexi intended to take Ye Yuwei and the children somewhere, but since Yuan Mo was here, he let the children stay at home with the young guest and went with Ye Yuwei instead.
