The Bumpy Road of Marriage: Divorce Now, Daddy - Chapter 330

Chapter 330: 330

“Mr . Cheng plays his game well . It is still as impressive after eleven years,” said Gu Juexi with a faint smile, his calm aura contrasting Ye Yuwei’s rage .

He knew that Ye Yuwei was bad at being subtle . She was not afraid to show her anger, but there was nothing she could do besides that . Having that kind of character made it hard for Ye Yuwei to survive in this dog-eat-dog world .

The title of Mrs . Gu had given her good things for the past three years, but it had also brought bad things .

What would happen if he died?

The thought of it made Gu Juexi frown .

How could he die and leave Ye Yuwei like that?

“You are being humble, Mr . Gu,” snorted Cheng Jie, leaning back in his chair . “You haven’t changed in the past eleven years ago . People with weaknesses are just destined to lose . ”

Ye Yuwei had no idea what these two men were saying .

What had happened eleven years ago?

That was the year Gu Juexi retired from the army .

“I agree,” said Gu Juexi emotionlessly, “but Mrs . Gu said something once that I completely agree with . Would you like to know what she said, Mr . Cheng?”

“What did she say?” asked Cheng Jie patiently .

But Gu Juexi did not answer him . “Why don’t you ask Miss Liang? She should remember what Mrs . Gu said,” Gu Juexi replied with a laugh and Cheng Jie began to laugh loudly too .

“The good is strong, but evil is ten times stronger . Didn’t you lose to your own brother?” inquired Cheng Jie pleasantly .

Gu Juexi held Ye Yuwei’s hand tightly with one hand and swirled his wine with the other .

Ye Yuwei did not understand what they were saying but she could guess most of it—they held grudges against each other .

Gu Juexi was plotting something and so was Cheng Jie, but Gu Juexi was losing now . How could it be?

“Why are you so quiet, Mrs . Gu?” Cheng Jie asked suddenly .

“What do you want me to say? Thanks to eighteen generations of your ancestors?” Ye Yuwei sneered coldly .

The hand that was swirling Gu Juexi’s wine paused for a second at what Ye Yuwei said .

Someone had told him that the young mistress of the Gu family was a soft-spoken and polite woman . Is what Ye Yuwei said something a soft-spoken and polite woman would say?

Though he had to admit that Ye Yuwei conveyed her words magnificently because even Cheng Jie looked stunned .

The private room went silent for a second but Cheng Jie reacted quickly .

“I like your humor, Mrs . Gu . Come, try the dishes . ” Cheng Jie laughed, gesturing at the food .

“Thanks, but I am afraid I might get poisoned,” Ye Yuwei said through gritted teeth .

Gu Juexi smiled in satisfaction at Ye Yuwei’s performance . Not the best, but acceptable and he was proud of it .

Cheng Jie’s expression became menacing at Ye Yuwei’s words, but she did not bat an eyelid and continued to stare at Cheng Jie, silently seething .

Gu Juexi gently put his wine glass on the table and helped Ye Yuwei up from her seat . “Pregnant women tend to be suspicious . Mr . Cheng, please don’t take it to heart . We will leave since my wife is worried . I will remember the lesson that Mr . Cheng has taught me . ”

The sound of glass smashing came from the private room, right after Gu Juexi and Ye Yuwei left .

Feeling her palms become sweaty, Ye Yuwei let go of Gu Juexi’s hand right after they exited the room . Gu Juexi looked down at the hand that Ye Yuwei had let go of .

“What are you doing, Ye Yuwei?” asked Gu Juexi unhappily .

“Shouldn’t I be asking you that, Mr . Gu? What are you doing?” cried Ye Yuwei in frustration . “You’ve known Cheng Jie for so long now . You knew that he was plotting something and you were plotting something as well!” Ye Yuwei held in her sorrow and choked out, “Then again, who am I to Mr . Gu, for you to tell me anything?”
