“Yes, Qiao Yi.” Xiao Yaojing did not notice the slight change in Ye Yuwei’s tone as she was concentrating on the road.

Ye Yuwei hurriedly took out the name card that she received from the man the other night.

Chairman of Bo Jue Heavy Industry, Qiao Yi.

Ye Yuwei shuddered in shock and knocked over the lid of the medicine bottle on the table. Her arm was scalded by the scorching hot lid, and the lid fell onto the floor and broke into pieces.

The loud noise alerted the people outside. Gu Juexi came running into the kitchen and pulled Ye Yuwei away in reflex. “What do you think you’re doing?”

Ye Yuwei’s arm was reddened by the scald. It was a mild burn but it stung.

Gu Juexi frowned at her scalded arm and pulled her towards the yard.

“Hey—”

The name card was lying on the floor.

“Do you not want your hand anymore?” Gu Juexi scolded in a concerned tone. He pulled her outside, turned the tap and let cool water run over the burn.

Ye Yuwei was rather surprised to see Gu Juexi become a bundle of nerves. It wiped away the agitation in her heart.

Regardless of past events, she was glad to know that at least up to this point, she was everything in his heart.

“Mommy, what’s going on?” Ye Xicheng stood on tiptoe to look at his mother’s hand, annoyed that he was too short to get a clear view.

“I’m alright, be a dear and go to the room to check on your sister, will you?” Ye Yuwei was worried about her daughter, so she pushed her son gently to urge him to go to his sister.

While walking to the room, he glanced back at his mommy in concern every few steps. Seeing that the old meatball was very attentive towards his mommy, he decided to give his father a chance and trust him this one time.

Gu Juexi blew on the burn wound occasionally while putting the hand under running water.

“What were you thinking? Did you think about the placebo to add into the medication and you literally did it and burned yourself?” Gu Juexi chided grudgingly, not concealing his anxiety like he used to.

“I was thinking about adding poison to your medicine,” Ye Yuwei rebutted furiously. Why couldn’t he say nice things even when he was so worried?

Gu Juexi turned the tap closed after a while and pecked the back of her drenched and cold hand. “Dummy, what would you do without me?”

When Ye Yuwei attempted to argue, Gu Juexi held onto her neck, carried her off the floor and kissed her on the lips.

His lips were a bit cold when they had touched her wet hand earlier and the coldness transferred to her lips. It was very refreshing on a hot day in the summer.

This was Gu Juexi’s most favorite activity recently. He loved to kiss her by surprise and look at her bewildered face close-up.

Ye Xicheng’s expression darkened and he took his sister out of the room when he saw the two adults and their interaction by the basin. The old meatball had been kissing his mommy a lot lately.

Did he forget about his existence?

Ye Xicheng let go of his sister’s hand when she pulled away. She went to her father eagerly and huffed in rage.

Xixi embraced Gu Juexi’s leg like greased lightning. “Daddy, I want kisses too.”

Gu Juexi was surprised by her appearance.

Ye Yuwei cleared her throat nervously and took a step back. It was not her hand that was red now but her face instead.

Gu Juexi bent over to carry his daughter who was requesting kisses and stared at his son. He pecked her cheek and said, “It is very hot here, let’s go inside.”

Ye Xicheng made a funny face at Gu Juexi as he was walking into the house. He dashed into the kitchen and hugged Ye Yuwei who was pouring the medication into a bowl. “Mommy, why does he kiss you so often nowadays?”
