The Bumpy Road of Marriage: Divorce Now, Daddy
chapter-1777

Gu Juexi intended to watch the show. This much was true.

It was so true that Ye Yuwei nearly started a fight with him on the first day after New Year’s Day due to his lack of loyalty to his friends. They were friends anyhow but Gu Juexi intended to watch at the sidelines.

Ye Xicheng was lying on his bed, playing his message-in-a-bottle game on his mobile phone. He often muttered about how childish the messages were. From time to time, he received his mother’s nagging, questioning him if she would really want such a daughter-in-law.

After Ye Yuwei rejected him, she looked at Gu Juexi who was leaning against the headboard and reading a book. “What are you thinking of?”

Gu Juexi looked up at Ye Yuwei and then continued to flip through his book. “You should see what kind of daughter-in-law your son has found for you. You haven’t dealt with your son’s marriage yet. Why do you meddle in others’?”

Ye Yuwei, “…”

Ye Yuwei and Ye Xicheng exchanged glances. Ye Xicheng decisively threw down his phone and crawled into bed. He just wanted to sleep right now. It was as simple as that—he refused to deal with his parents who forgot that he was still a child.

Gu Juexi shot a glare at the little fellow, who already closed his eyes and was about to go to sleep. Then, he resumed reading the contents in his folder. “This matter has nothing to do with me. If I interfere, it will only make things worse. Moreover, the enmity between Mo Fei and Mo Tian is their…”

“But Mo Tian and I are enemies too. I hope you remember this—”

After hearing Ye Yuwei’s words, Gu Juexi put down the book in his hand. However, the look in his eyes corked up all of Ye Yuwei’s unuttered words.

“Do you know what Mo Tian means to Mo Fei? In other words, Mo Tian must die in Mo Fei’s hands before she can bid farewell to her past. Or perhaps, if Mo Tian kills her, the outcome will be the same. She’ll be able to bid farewell to her past completely.”

Ye Yuwei choked at Gu Juexi’s words. “If you —”

“My dear wife, there are no ifs in this matter. I’m not doing anything because this is a feud between a master and his disciple. Once I do something, do you know what it means? This means that from now on, you can forget about living a peaceful life,” Gu Juexi explained as he took Ye Yuwei’s hand and pulled her to sit down on the bed.

Who was Gu Juexi? Everyone had their eyes on Gu Juexi. If he kept up his good work in his business, everyone would be happy. If he helped Mo Fei, the balance in that circle would be affected.

This was akin to the incident when Kangxi Emperor’s nine sons vied for the throne. It was Kangxi’s family affair, and it was the royal family’s business no matter how they vied for it. However, once a powerful outsider joined in, the problem would escalate.

It would become, ‘Oh, so this person wants to conquer the world. Everyone, be careful now. Instead of waiting for him to dominate the world alone, everyone should throw all they have into this fight. Perhaps then, we can still survive.’

Thus, a family fight would escalate into a world-class war.

This was the main reason why Gu Juexi chose to remain silent. He was no longer the bloodthirsty person he was ten years ago. He had a wife and children, and now he only wanted to do business and earn money to support his family.

However, Ye Yuwei, who lived a normal life, did not understand this.

“Then, is Mo Fei really going to marry Ye Cong? What about Big Brother Qian?” Ye Yuwei stopped insisting on what she said before and asked another question instead.

Gu Juexi shook the book in his hand. Then, he snorted and continued to read. When someone insisted on digging his own grave, no one would be able to help him. Qian Yikun was the best encapsulation for that statement.

Time passed day by day. Now, there were less than twelve hours left until the fifth of January.
