The Bumpy Road of Marriage: Divorce Now, Daddy

Ye Yuwei looked at the bouquet of roses in disgust and wanted to get rid of it so badly. How had she fallen for his tricks again?

Gu Juexi looked at his phone in disgust and threw it onto his desk. Why were women so fickle? He bought the roses that had been suggested by the florist, what was she upset about?

That woman was only obedient in bed.

Suddenly, Ye Yuwei regretted her reaction towards Gu Juexi. He had ventured out of his comfort zone to get her flowers, why couldn’t she say something nice instead? She was convinced this would be the first and the last time she received roses from Gu Juexi.

Ye Yuwei threw the bouquet to a side and a dollar origami heart dropped out. She picked it up and saw a tiny number written on it—three.

This was the third bill Gu Juexi had sent her. She giggled in amusement, feeling slightly better.

Ye Yuwei knew Xiao Yaojing was working at Gu Enterprise now, and she also perceived the requirement of transition affairs between the bank and the financial department in Gu Enterprise headquarters.

Ye Yuwei needed some time before she could find an assistant as Manager Ouyang had resigned and she did not recognize the new batch of employees in the bank.

She talked to Xiao Yaojing on the phone while walking into her office, “Come over here to have lunch with me… Sister, I don’t have a car… Okay, call me when you leave the office, I’ll wait for you downstairs,” as she was talking, she pushed the door of her office open and entered it.

“How nice, she can come and go as she pleases though she obviously doesn’t know how to run the bank,” a senior funding consultant remarked in a tone of great dismay outside her office while arranging her documents.

“She is the wife of the CEO, are you jealous?” Another consultant voiced out, “Our incentives will be deduced if we don’t hit the monthly loan target, we are not in the same group as her.”

Ye Yuwei paused her action of closing the door. She turned around and glanced at the two consultants, bemused.

“What nonsense are you talking about? Have you already hit your target for this month?” The manager of the Financial Advisory Department huffed furiously, emerging from downstairs.

The manager had been with the bank for over a decade. She had worked with Ye Yuwei before, so she had a good understanding of Ye Yuwei’s capabilities.

“Fu Juan, just leave them be.” Ye Yuwei ended the call. Instead of entering her office, she leaned against the door and looked at the two ladies.

“Manager Ye,” called Fu Juan as she moved her gaze from the gossiping employees to Ye Yuwei.

“I thought that after the situation with Jiang Tong, we would not have any employees so full of themselves,” smirked Ye Yuwei with a scornful smile.

Fu Juan understood Ye Yuwei’s implication and threw a raging look at the two consultants. “Manager Ye, please don’t mind what they’ve said, I’ll teach them a lesson later.”

Ye Yuwei smirked at her remark. “Fu Juan, come to my office, please,” she said as she stared at the two ladies, then turned around and walked into her office.

“Who does she think she is, she is just an external manager,” the consultant lashed out again, exasperated.

“Both of you were still high schoolers when she was appointed as the manager in Gu Bank, so hold your tongue,” Fu Juan chided. She hurled the files onto the table and entered Ye Yuwei’s office.

“Stop being so dumb and watch the news,” another lady smirked sarcastically, “If you don’t know who Ye Yuwei is, go and check out who Nalan Wei is. If you don’t know how those two people are related, watch the recent biggest news.”

She sneered at her humiliated colleagues, grabbed her files and went downstairs in her high heels to start soliciting her loan target.

Fu Juan entered Ye Yuwei’s office cautiously and said, “Manager Ye, those people are just a couple of loudmouths, please don’t mind them.”

Ye Yuwei put her bag down. She went to grab her clothes in the closet and looked at Fu Juan. “Why are you so polite to me all of a sudden?”
