Chapter 454: 454
Ye Yuwei placed the chopsticks properly for Wen Jie . Gu Juexi had completely taken over the responsibility of looking after Xixi .
Wen Jie had respected her wishes and her decision . Therefore, naturally she would not ask Gu Juexi to leave .
This was her mother-in-law’s capability and intelligence . It was no surprise that she was able to survive in the Gu family for so many years .
Her mother-in-law understood her . She knew that if she gave her the respect that she wanted, then she would also have fought for the right for Gu Juexi to stay .
“It was indeed difficult in the beginning,” Ye Yuwei said honestly . She could become the iron maiden today because she had gone through all the difficulties step-by-step .
When Gu Juexi heard that sentence, he paused for a moment and subconsciously looked at Ye Yuwei .
However, Ye Yuwei did not look at him but continued taking food for her mother-in-law while feeding Ye Xicheng at the same time . “I could get through all that because of what you had taught me, Mom,” Ye Yuwei said as she took a deep breath . “You were right . In this world, not everyone deserves your kindness and patience . ”
Although Ye Yuwei did not have any hidden meaning behind her words, Gu Juexi knew that anyone who could say those words would have gone through a lot of hardship and learnt that through their ordeals .
For someone like Ye Yuwei who had a gentle and kind heart comparable to the Virgin Mary, she must have gone through an inexplicable amount of hardships that turned her into the person that she was today .
“I have said that if kindness is not straightforward, then this kind of kindness must be cowardly,” Wen Jie said and started coughing again .
Ye Yuwei quickly put down her chopsticks and gently patted Wen Jie’s back .
Wen Jie lifted her hands slightly, signaling Ye Yuwei not to be so worried . “Mom knows it must have been tough on you for the past few years . ”
Ye Yuwei held back her tears . She thought back to when she first entered Qianfeng Enterprise and was attacked and targeted by everyone . It was the most challenging three months of her life, but it was also because of those three months that she finally grew stronger .
It was also during those three months that she finally realized that she could do so well in the banking industry as a fresh graduate because of Gu Juexi’s protection towards her . Even if everyone in the bank were unhappy or dissatisfied with her performance, they did not dare to mistreat or judge her because they were all afraid of Gu Juexi .
Gu Juexi had a frown on his face . He had not taken care of children before, and therefore, he was attentively feeding Xixi without even taking a single spoon of rice for himself .
However, he was also distracted as he tried to listen to Ye Yuwei’s story .
He was the one who had forced Ye Yuwei to grow up .
However, growing up was such a painful process to begin with .
Therefore, he was already full of remorse .
Why must she grow up?
He could have sheltered her for her entire life .
Ye Yuwei took a deep breath and pinched her nose slightly to hold back her tears . It was probably because of Wen Jie that the weakness that she had not felt in years suddenly resurfaced again . “Mom, don’t worry . I am doing very well now . Everything is perfect . ”
Wen Jie nodded slightly . She could tell that Ye Yuwei was happy now .
Without her son, Ye Yuwei could still live very well and she could teach her children to be filial and obedient .
But her own son was not living well .
Her son had changed a lot from yesterday . The change in him was huge . His speech wavered, and he was now in an active mode of attack against his father, despite ignoring him for years .
She knew that all this was because of Ye Yuwei .
This person no longer needed her son by her side .
“Mommy, I want to pee,” Xixi suddenly said .
As Ye Yuwei stood up, Wen Jie held her back and said, “Let Juexi do it . ”
Ye Yuwei was stunned for a moment . She did not say anything, but sat down quietly .
