Gu Juexi didn’t rush him. He waited patiently for Lu Qichuan to start talking.
Ye Yuwei went over to ask him to come for dinner, but she was pulled right into his embrace. The harder she tried to struggle out of his arms, the tighter he hugged her. He pressed a kiss to her neck.
This action that should be considered normal between lovebirds earned Gu Juexi a cold stare from Ye Yuwei instead. It didn’t scare Gu Juexi off though and on the contrary, he thought it was cute.
“Boss, I advise you to remain calm when you hear the news, there might be some other situation involved in it.” After he reorganized his thoughts, Lu Qichuan conveyed this statement cautiously.
His teasing of Ye Yuwei stopped for a second. The emotionless expression came back onto his face. “Talk.”
“It was rumored that Aunt eloped once during the few years of being married to Uncle.”
“Ah! Gu Juexi! What are you doing?”
Lu Qichuan’s voice ended abruptly when he heard Ye Yuwei yell.
The reason Ye Yuwei shrieked so suddenly was because Gu Juexi’s grip on Ye Yuwei had grown immensely tighter.
Lu Qichuan was hesitant because of the unexpected surprise, but he quickly composed himself. “That is what I got from my side, but I think it is better for you to ask Aunt about this because no one knows better than her about the things that happened in the past.”
Lu Qichuan spoke very fast but Gu Juexi seemed to isolate himself from the conversation.
Elope.
It was that word that had deafened his ears and shaken his mind.
That word. How was that word a.s.sociated with his mother?
Ye Yuwei was shocked by Gu Juexi’s strong grip, but she also sensed his peculiarity. She couldn’t hear anything that was said on the phone, but she could see that Gu Juexi’s expression had turned horrid.
“Gu—”
Before she could finish, Gu Juexi turned his sharp gaze toward her. Startled, she swallowed and kept quiet.
