Chapter 1611 - Daddy Was A Henpecked Man (1/2)
If Gu Juexi did not come back, Ye Yuwei would grit her teeth and endure every single hards.h.i.+p that came her way no matter what. After all, that was how she lived her life in the past.
However, a person would only need to experience being reliant on someone else once. Once they had someone to rely on, what followed would be grievance—overwhelming grievance, or even, unreasonable grievance.
That was exactly Ye Yuwei’s current state of mind, and Gu Juexi provided her the reliance that made her vulnerable.
Silence engulfed the entire room. No one spoke. There were only the sounds of the trio’s shallow breaths. Perhaps, since Gu Juexi had not had a good rest for a long time now, he was slowly falling asleep as he stared at Ye Yuwei.
In the dead of night, Ye Yuwei opened her eyes, fully awake, and looked at the man right in front of her.
She dared to throw a tantrum at him so heedlessly only because she knew she was loved.
Ye Yuwei reached out her hand across her daughter and touched his face. Yet, the moment she felt Gu Juexi’s face, Gu Juexi suddenly grabbed her hand.
“Let’s sleep. I’ll explain it to you tomorrow.” Gu Juexi did not let go of Ye Yuwei’s hand. Instead, he extended his long arm across his daughter’s neck and enveloped the mother-daughter duo into his protection range.
After a night of silence, Gu Juexi had a good night’s sleep. When he woke up, both mother and daughter were still asleep in his arms.
At this moment, Gu Juexi felt nothing but content in his heart. He lowered his head and planted a kiss on Ye Yuwei’s forehead. Xi Xi, still in his embrace, started twisting about. It seemed like she was about to wake up.
Gu Juexi quickly got up and carried Xi Xi to the bathroom.
Xi Xi lay on Gu Juexi’s shoulder and rubbed her eyes with her little hands continuously. She straightened her little head and yawned slightly The corners of her mouth arched slightly to form an adorable smile. Eventually, she went back to lying on her father’s shoulder in her dazed state.
“Daddy—”
Gu Juexi carried her to the bathroom and placed her on the toilet. “Uh-huh, Daddy’s back.”
