Gu Juexi kept quiet on their way back, and so did Ye Yuwei.

They remained quiet even after they dropped by the kindergarten to pick up their kids.

The fact that Wen Lan was still alive was completely unexpected, and the fact that Princess Pink was involved was even more so, especially to Ye Yuwei.

The kids behaved well throughout the drive and they arrived home after a quiet journey.

Gu Tianmu was looking out the window when Gu Juexi entered his room after dinner.

“Who is Nalan Jing?” asked Gu Juexi bluntly.

“Nalan Jing?” Gu Tianmu turned to look at his son who had walked over to him and searched his memory for the name for a while before answering, “a rich second generation kid who used to have a crush on Wen Lan, what about him?”

“Where is he now?” asked Gu Juexi again.

“Rumors were that he died in a car crash,” said Gu Tianmu indifferently as he continued to look out at the sky.

Died?

For real?

If Nalan Jing was dead, who was the man that he was dealing with now?

“Have you heard of the love stones?” Gu Juexi continued.

“What are you trying to ask?” Gu Tianmu finally looked at Gu Juexi and asked.

“I am trying to give you an idea about the kind of woman you fell for back then,” Gu Juexi scoffed.

“Gu Juexi,” Gu Tianmu growled heatedly. He knew what was between him and Wen Lan was not love.

Though Gu Juexi couldn’t care less if Gu Tianmu was mad.

“So do you know about the love stones or not?”

“I don’t,” said Gu Tianmu, “they were both sold by the time I found out about them.”

They were both sold.

And the buyer was Nalan Jing.

That would explain everything.

“Why did you want to buy the love stones? For my mother?” Gu Juexi mocked.

“Get lost, Gu Juexi!” Gu Tianmu yelled at Gu Juexi when he finally lost his temper.

Gu Juexi left the room indifferently, not at all bothered by how Gu Tianmu had yelled at him. It was not like he was that keen to talk to Gu Tianmu anyway.

“Mother…” Gu Juexi bumped into Wen Jie right in front of Gu Tianmu’s room.

“Did you quarrel with him again?” Wen Jie frowned and asked.

“No, I didn’t, though he told me to get lost. Please don’t go in now or he might lash out at you too. Let’s go to bed,” Gu Juexi said and went upstairs with Wen Jie.

Gu Tianmu was stunned speechless at Gu Juexi’s words.

What a jerk!

Gu Juexi went back to his room only after walking Wen Jie to her room. After showering, he grabbed Ye Yuwei’s phone while Ye Yuwei was tucking the kids in in their room and saw the picture that Wen Shan had sent her.

Gu Juexi scoffed and tossed the phone onto the bed. Nalan Chunbo seemed to be having fun while he was busy cleaning up his mess for him.

How infuriating!

Ye Yuwei got back to the room and saw Gu Juexi sulking, and wondered if he could get annoyed just by breathing.

“What’s wrong?” asked Ye Yuwei while looking at her phone.

“Who knew that Wen Shan would succeed this time? We have to settle this before my brother gets back here,” said Ye Yuwei. Her mood brightened when she saw the picture that Wen Shan sent.

Gu Juexi scoffed and told Ye Yuwei to shower quickly because he had something to tell her.

Ye Yuwei put down her phone and went to the bathroom to shower without a word.
