The Bumpy Road of Marriage: Divorce Now, Daddy

Gu Juexi dashed to the cabin and stood there with his eyes closed. Everyone stared at him curiously, but he stood still and listened carefully to his surroundings.

Beep…

A very subtle beep caught his attention. Gu Juexi walked to the coffee table that had been pushed aside and flipped it over.

Everyone who was watching immediately took a step back when they saw what was under the coffee table.

Three minutes. The time left on the time bomb was three minutes.

Mo Fei reacted the fastest and rushed to the cockpit only to find that the ship was no longer moving. It looked like Wen Chenghao had tampered with it.

“The ship stopped moving,” Mo Fei rushed to the cabin and announced while looking at everyone in the living room.

In other words, throwing the bomb into the sea and leaving in the ship was not going to happen.

Clueless about the time bomb, Ye Yuwei looked at Gu Juexi innocently.

Gu Juexi looked at his mother then at Ye Yuwei. The fighters that Wen Chenghao had hired had all fled. Escaping the ship in the middle of the sea wasn’t impossible for the fighters, but it sure was a whole different story for Ye Yuwei and Wen Jie.

Yu Yuwei and Wen Jie weren’t the only ones who couldn’t escape. There were a few bodyguards who Wen Chenghao left behind. Not knowing what to do, all four of them looked at each other hopelessly.

“I have checked, there are no rubber boats. There is nothing on this ship, Wen Chenghao must want to blow everything up,” said Mo Fei after looking around the ship. By this time, there were only two minutes left on the time bomb.

“All of you go to the bottom of the ship,” said Gu Juexi as he removed his coat and put it on Ye Yuwei.

“Gu Juexi…” Ye Yuwei looked at Gu Juexi who had squatted down to look at the time on the ticking bomb.

Gu Juexi clenched his fists then reached out to grab the bomb. He was never an expert in defusing bombs, that was Lao Bao’s specialty.

“Juexi.” Worried about Gu Juexi, Wen Jie refused to leave the ship too.

“Just leave the ship already.”

Just as Gu Juexi was going to cut one of the wires to defuse the bomb, Gu Tianmu had reached out, taken the bomb, and jumped off the ship. It all happened so fast that no one reacted until Gu Tianmu was gone.

Gu Juexi dashed out after exchanging looks with Ye Yuwei.

The man had swam some distance away from the ship.

Ye Yuwei put her hands on the railing, eyes wide in disbelief. Wen Jie was standing on the deck too, and she stared at the receding figure fading away.

That was how Gu Tianmu had always been. He never explained what he did as long as it didn’t go against his conscience. He never cared about explaining things to anyone.

That was how he was in the past, and that was how he was in the present. He had always been that decisive.

“Gu Tianmu,” Wen Jie mumbled. She could feel her emotions fill her chest and they were suffocating her.

And then the bomb blew up in the sea.

The explosion caused a shock wave underwater that was so strong, it shook the ship and produced massive waves that crashed onto the ship, drenching everyone on it.

Gu Juexi balanced himself and jumped off the ship too after making sure that Ye Yuwei and Wen Jie were alright.

That man couldn’t be dead before he apologized.

He owed him and his mother so much, how could he just die like that?
