The Bumpy Road of Marriage: Divorce Now, Daddy

Panda Novel

Ye Yuwei pushed Gu Juexi away from her and he stumbled back a few steps clumsily.

He chuckled in amusement and changed the subject, “How is the progress on the data?”

“I’ve been scrutinizing the data from the recent months, it seems ordinary,” Ye Yuwei reported and handed the datasheet to him. “I’ve looked through the suppliers that recently terminated their contracts with Gu Enterprise. Two of them still have debts due so I’ve ordered the staff to get them to clear it.”

Gu Juexi took the datasheet and viewed it in one glance. He raised his eyebrows at her as she reported her findings, satisfied with her progress and decision-making.

He especially admired her vindictive and retaliatory attitude.

“What was going on out there when I walked in?” Gu Juexi asked as he was reading the report and datasheet, “Have the rumors about how the incapable Mrs. Gu was parachuted into the company started spreading again?”

Ye Yuwei reacted indifferently. The rumors wouldn’t exist at all if not for him.

“That’s why I ordered them to handle the debt issue,” Ye Yuwei remarked flatly. She did not consider her action as an act of vengeance for her personal grudge.

Gu Juexi looked at her upon her remark, impressed. He placed the datasheet on the table, reached out to stroke her hair and murmured, “Good job, that’s my wife.”

She realized that she had started going astray too, but it was all Gu Juexi’s fault as he was a bad influence on her.

“Is the problem of the Xin Cheng Energy underground pollution settled?” Ye Yuwei exchanged glances with the man sitting across her.

“It’s not a big deal. Besides, Qiao Yi is not in the country,” Gu Juexi declared. He pressed his hands on the table again and announced, “We’re going to the States.”

“Are you crazy? Mom will not allow it!” Ye Yuwei exclaimed in a shrill voice.

Gu Juexi shrugged and said, “It’s just a short trip. We’ll just go meet my grandmother then come back straight away.”

“Do you honestly think your grandmother will tell us everything?” Ye Yuwei blurted out, “I finally understand why your grandmother and father are so hostile towards me.” She cupped her chin and continued staring at him. “There is another person, Aunt Gu. In my opinion, instead of going to the US to meet your grandmother, why don’t we bring Aunt Gu here? Since she knew about the elopement, she must have known a lot about the past.”

Gu Juexi blinked in surprise. How could he have completely forgotten that person?

Gu Juexi cupped Ye Yuwe’s face and kissed her passionately. “A reward for being so perceptive.”

Ye Yuwei glared at him in annoyance. She wanted to kick him dead instead.

Gu Juexi waited until 5 pm for Ye Yuwei to finish her work. There was a knock on the door as she was packing her things.

“Come in.”

Fu Juan opened the door and entered. She first saw Gu Juexi who was playing with his phone by the table and frantically greeted him, but he brushed her off.

As one of the tenured employees in the bank, she was fully aware of her CEO’s odd character so she quietly accepted the cold shoulder and reported to Ye Yuwei, “Manager Ye, the general managers from the building material and mason suppliers are here.”

Ye Yuwei paused in the middle of arranging her files, her lips curled upwards mysteriously as she said, “If they are here to clear their payment, they can do it downstairs.”

Fu Juan hesitated, her mouth open but not knowing how to explain the situation.

She knew Ye Yuwei could understand her implications.
