Chapter 1223 - Someone Is Harming Gu Tianmu?
Suddenly, dizziness struck her. Ye Yuwei had a hunch that she was about to become famous again.
No, it was not entirely a hunch. It was very much anticipated when it came to a trouble-maker like Gu Juexi.
When they arrived home, Yuan Mo had already gone back and Ye Xicheng and Xixi had taken their dinner.
As soon as they entered the house, Gu Juexi went to his room to shower. Apparently, the intermittent germophobia had come back.
Wen Jie was on the first floor, accompanying the children. She got to her feet when they arrived. “Have you eaten?”
“Yes, on our way back,” Ye Yuwei replied and walked toward the living hall. “How is Dad? Is he getting better?”
“His fever receded,” Wen Jie answered. “Since you’re home, I’ll go get some rest.”
Ye Yuwei nodded. She watched Wen Jie slowly walk up the stairs.
Ever since he was warded, Gu Tianmu’s fever had relapsed multiple times. At first, Ye Yuwei thought that it might be Gu Tianmu’s trick. It was hard to tell since no one could understand the weird mentality of the men in the Gu family.
It was still understandable if the fever had relapsed once or twice, but the continuous fevers made Ye Yuwei quite worried.
Gu Juexi had bought Xixi a plasma car two days ago. The little girl was over the moon with her new toy and was riding her plasma car around the living hall. The presence of this new toy also released Ye Xicheng from his brotherly duties, and he could finally focus on his own things without having to keep his sister company.
Ye Yuwei gazed at her children with a smile. Since they didn’t need her attention at the moment, she walked up the stairs to her room.
Gu Juexi was taking a bath, and the bathroom door was slightly open.
Ye Yuwei leaned against the bathroom door and looked up at the ceiling. “Gu Juexi, do you find your dad’s condition a little odd?”
The sound of gushing water in the bathroom was loud but Ye Yuwei spoke loudly so he must have heard her despite his lack of response.
She continued, “It’s been almost a month now, a fever or two would be fine but hasn’t he gotten a fever one too many times? Are you sure he’s fine?”
The sound of gushing water dwindled. As Ye Yuwei attempted to peek into the bathroom, the door suddenly opened and Gu Juexi stepped out with a towel around his waist. He walked past Ye Yuwei and grabbed another towel to wipe his hair before saying, “So? What are you trying to say? Someone is harming Gu Tianmu? Isn’t that great? Someone is avenging you.”
Ye Yuwei narrowed her eyes in disgust.
Yes, that remark had come from his own son.
Gu Juexi sat down by the bed and Ye Yuwei glanced at him. Fading kiss marks were all over his masculine body, along with scratches and bite marks. Water drops slid down his bulky chest into the towel around his waist.
Ye Yuwei took a deep breath and swallowed anxiously as she took a step back from Gu Juexi. How could he seduce her like this?
Gu Juexi didn’t miss any of Ye Yuwei’s anxious gestures, but he just sneered and decided not to tease her. They had had a crazy time yesterday and he had ended up injuring her. He was not a monster, so he wouldn’t worsen her injuries tonight.
Ye Yuwei pretended not to look. She shifted her gaze to his head instead, the safest spot of his whole body. “I’m just making an educated guess. Someone is following me and they used me to give you a warning, so it is possible that they might target your dad too.”
Gu Juexi wiped his hair casually and tossed the towel onto the table. Again, he sneered at the woman who had almost retreated to the door and went to the wardrobe to get his pajamas.
“I know.”
“You do?” Ye Yuwei gaped in shock. Was he deliberately letting someone harm his dad?
