Ye Yuwei walked back to the hotel with a troubled mind after thanking the cashier. What Gu Juexi had done was definitely beyond her expectations.

She knew that he was an arrogant man more than ten years ago, but the Gu Juexi now was confusing her.

Ye Yuwei reached the hotel and returned the umbrella, and asked for another two bottles of water before she went back to the room.

Gu Juexi has already come out from the shower and was in a bathrobe drying his hair when she got back.

“Where did you go?” Gu Juexi asked, frowning.

Ye Yuwei kept calm and tried her best to speak normally. “I went down for water. What about it?”

Gu Juexi let out a cold laugh. “They might think you asked for the water to bathe in. One trip followed by another, how many of them have you taken?” Gu Juexi asked as he sat down on the couch.

Ye Yuwei and Ye Xicheng were surprised that Gu Juexi didn’t make a fuss about the old sofa, but why couldn’t this man just speak nicely?

“So what if I shower with the water I took?” Ye Yuwei asked through clenched teeth. She put the bottles she was holding on the table, sat down on one of the stools and began to eat.

Gu Juexi paused at Ye Yuwei’s sudden anger.

“I am done, mommy,” Ye Xicheng said, jumped off the stool and crawled into his bed to be with his sister.

Gu Juexi tossed his towel aside and sat down on the same stool that Ye Xicheng had sat on. He looked at Ye Yuwei who was eating and reached out to stroke her hair, but she tilted her head to dodge his hand.

“What are you doing?”

Gu Juexi rolled his eyes at Ye Yuwei then picked up Ye Xicheng’s chopsticks and the porridge that he didn’t finish. “You went out? Your hair is wet,” Gu Juexi scoffed.

Ye Yuwei looked at Gu Juexi in disbelief. What was he doing? The porridge was leftovers and he wanted to eat them? Even though it was his son who didn’t finish the porridge, but he—Gu Juexi was actually eating someone’s leftovers?

“I ate roots when I was a soldier. There was soil on it,” Gu Juexi remarked as he ate the porridge without looking up.

Ye Yuwei was speechless remembering how Gu Juexi made a fuss about the hotel in the morning.

“He Liao had to teach us the kind of roots and leaves that were edible,” Gu Juexi continued to say as he served Ye Yuwei with the dishes.

‘He Liao?’

Ye Yuwei’s mind went blank for a moment and her grip on her chopsticks tightened. She stared at Gu Juexi and almost forgot that she was eating.

But Gu Juexi continued talking as if he was telling a story. “You should have seen He Liao. Didn’t Cheng Jie show you the video? He was the army doctor. He was with us for two years but we didn’t manage to bring him back.”

She could still recall the video. Now that Gu Juexi had brought it up, it was as if she could see how the shots were fired and how the people were blown into pieces.

“You have taken revenge for them,” said Ye Yuwei bitterly.

Hadn’t he taken revenge? The revenge that he spent ten years to plan and execute.

“He Liao once told me that everyone in his family was a doctor. He became a soldier so that he could apply his skills and knowledge at the great divide of life and death. He was a cheerful young man,” Gu Juexi murmured while eating the porridge slowly.

Ye Yuwei didn’t feel happy with the story that Gu Juexi was telling.
