However, what Gu Juexi had in mind was very simple.

‘When will Wen Tao be back? Why is their honeymoon so long?’

Though in reality, they had only been gone for less than two weeks.

“By the way, did Auntie Yuan go and meet her son? Didn’t you intend to invite him over to our house?” Ye Yuwei asked him when she recalled him mentioning it.

“Are you talking about Du Mingsheng? I did intend to do so.” Gu Juexi suddenly remembered the boy. He had forgotten all about it when he met Nalan Jing.

Ye Yuwei nodded her head. “You promised. Wouldn’t it be bad if you don’t invite him over?”

Gu Juexi had meant to ask Du Mingsheng whether he was the one who deleted the video, that was the reason why he had wanted to invite him over. But he still had to fulfill his promise even though there was no reason to anymore.

“Go back and tell Mom to ask Auntie Yuan to bring Du Mingsheng to our house for a meal.” Gu Juexi turned the car into a villa area, then stopped the vehicle.

Ye Yuwei reached out and opened the door once the car was parked nicely. “I still think that Nalan Jing would never use such a cheap way to threaten you. He might not be the one who threatened me.”

Gu Juexi closed the door and put his hands around Ye Yuwei’s waist when she walked toward him. “If it wasn’t him, could it be Lin Ximei? She doesn’t have those kinds of connections.”

“But you can’t deny the fact that you haven’t been able to capture Lin Ximei until now.” Ye Yuwei looked at Gu Juexi. “I still believe that the person my aunt fell for in the past would not be so bad.”

“So you think he doesn’t want to kill you,” Gu Juexi concluded bluntly.

Ye Yuwei was speechless.

Ye Yuwei took a deep breath, disgusted at the man’s overconfidence.

“Let’s make a bet. If the one behind all of this is not Nalan Jing, you must never shout at me again for the rest of your life,” said Ye Yuwei seriously. She held up her finger and pointed it at Gu Juexi.

“Are you actually placing such a big bet?” Gu Juexi sneered. Ye Yuwei stared at him.

‘What does he mean?’

“We cannot make such a bet. If you do anything bad in the future, how can I control my temper?” Gu Juexi spoke softly, then turned around and went straight into the mansion.

Ye Yuwei stared at the man’s back. She wanted so badly to kick him. ‘He could just promise me first and not keep it. He’s not even giving me that. That’s too much!’

Xixi was driving her toy car. She drove to where Ye Yuwei was when Ye Yuwei entered the mansion. Ye Yuwei jumped aside quickly and tapped her daughter’s head sharply, changing the direction of Xixi’s toy car. “Be nice.”

Xixi yelped in pain and drove her car away.

Gu Juexi went upstairs to change his clothes. Wen Jie turned around and looked at Ye Yuwei. “What did you guys talk about just now?”

Ye Yuwei went over to sit beside Wen Jie. “I asked him to not argue with me for the rest of our lives. He said he’s unable to do so.”

Wen Jie could not help but burst into laughter. “He’s only good at arguing, but he still adores you very much.”

“No, it’s not like that. He was angry with me yesterday night when I stopped his daughter from eating her meal,” Ye Yuwei growled but shut her mouth when she saw Gu Tianmu approaching them.

“Our daughters will leave us one day no matter how much we adore them. Aren’t you the one who will stay by his side until the end?” Wen Jie asked gently, holding Ye Yuwei’s hands tightly.

Gu Tianmu glanced at Wen Jie when he heard that, but Wen Jie did not even look at him.

‘She’s always talking about this woman. What’s so good about this woman?’

“Wife...” Gu Juexi called out from upstairs.
