The Bumpy Road of Marriage: Divorce Now, Daddy

Ye Yuwei wanted to defend herself against the old mistress’ accusation but did not know what to say.

Gu Juexi listened to what the old mistress said, and finally looked away from Ye Yuwei.

“Grandma, what evidence do you have that Ye Yuwei laced your food? Let’s have Doctor Qiu get you checked first.” Gu Juexi looked at Butler Kim who led the doctor into the room, and stood up from the bed to make space for the doctor.

Ye Yuwei was still standing at the door, refusing to leave.

Doctor Qiu checked both of them thoroughly and put down his stethoscope. “They must have eaten something bad, Mr. Gu. Or laxatives.”

“I knew it was that whore!” The old lady cursed while holding her stomach.

“Why would you do this, Yuwei?” asked Bai Yuyan who looked pale and pitiful.

Ye Yuwei pursed her lips and denied it. “I did not.”

“But didn’t you prepare dinner?” said Bai Yuyan who looked as if she was in even more pain now.

Ye Yuwei’s body was shaking uncontrollably as she stared at Bai Yuyan.

“What evidence does Miss Bai have? You stayed at this place uninvited and we were kind enough to give you food. Do you expect us to take your blame too now?” asked Gu Juexi coldly.

Bai Yuyan’s turned even more pale at what Gu Juexi said, “I…”

“What? Say it now if you have the evidence. Did you see it yourself? Why didn’t you stop her then? Or were you waiting for this chance to use my grandmother against Ye Yuwei?” Gu Juexi threw his questions at Bai Yuyan, one sharper than another.

Ye Yuwei looked at Gu Juexi stunned. She knew that Gu Juexi was never the type who showed pity and tenderness to women, but she began to think that Gu Juexi had actually been quite nice to her.

Bai Yuyan could not rebut what Gu Juexi said and looked at the old mistress helplessly. “I was just asking, Grandma. I didn’t mean it… Why would Juexi suspect me like that?”

The old mistress was calmer now as compared to just now, and looked at Ye Yuwei coldly.

Ye Yuwei looked down to avoid eye contact with the old mistress who was looking at her so resentfully. The way the old mistress looked at Ye Yuwei was as if saying that she would not be fooled by her, although her grandson had.

“Who else could it be? Why is it only the two of you are okay? Why is it only me and Yuyan are having diarrhea?” The old mistress asked while looking at her grandson coldly.

Gu Juexi frowned and looked at Ye Yuwei who was still standing at the door looking down at the floor and cursed silently. He then looked at the old mistress again. “Whoever did this knows it best. Please take care of my grandmother, Doctor Qiu.”

“Of course,” Doctor Qiu who was trying hard not to get involved in their family affairs heard Gu Juexi and answered.

Gu Juexi walked to Ye Yuwei and dragged her away from the door. “Why are you still standing here? Be their target of attack? Or have you lost your voice? Didn’t you argue a lot with me? Why didn’t you do it just now?” Gu Juexi nagged as he dragged Ye Yuwei back to their room.

Ye Yuwei did not say anything. Couldn’t this man say it nicely and make her feel touched? How could he be this annoying?

Ye Yuwei flung Gu Juexi’s hand off right after they got into their room. “Would you believe it if I said it wasn’t me? Would your grandmother believe me?”
