Chapter 1197 - Patience Was The Key
Wen Shan had put on her makeup again. When she saw the somber-looking Gu Juexi standing at the door, she got to her feet.
“Relax, it’s not like I kidnapped your wife. Why are you so petty?” Wen Shan snorted and walked past Gu Juexi.
Gu Juexi frowned at Wen Shan as he watched her leave. This young lady was getting bolder.
Ye Yuwei picked up the cotton pads and tidied up the room, ignoring Gu Juexi completely.
Gu Juexi went over and wrapped his arms around Ye Yuwei from behind as she bent down to throw the trash. She was stunned for a moment, but then slowly got up to fully curl into Gu Juexi’s embrace. She felt like they had been on a long journey and this was the place they had been trying to reach.
Gu Juexi lowered his head and planted a gentle kiss on Ye Yuwei’s ear as he whispered, “Tell me, why are you angry?”
Ye Yuwei was moved by Xiao Yaojing’s wedding today, so she decided not to have a fight with Gu Juexi.
“Gu Juexi, can you think about me before you decide to do anything in the future? Sometimes you might not find certain things dangerous, but that doesn’t mean I feel the same.” Ye Yuwei’s voice was soft but Gu Juexi heard her words loud and clear.
Gu Juexi was caught by surprise. His body stiffened.
He just felt like there was nothing to tell. He had everything under control.
Was it because of this that she had been ignoring him for so long?
“We’re husband and wife now, parents even, which means we have a lot of responsibilities on our shoulders. I take you into consideration when I make a decision regardless of your relation to the matter. I will inform you first before I do anything, so I hope—” Ye Yuwei paused, turned around and they locked gazes before she continued, “I hope before you decide to do anything, please try to think about me first. Consider that I, as your wife, have the right to know, even if it has nothing to do with me. Please understand that your safety is my main concern.”
Their fight had been ongoing for three days, so both of them were relatively calm now.
She wouldn’t become enraged and asked him to get lost. He wouldn’t think Ye Yuwei was nonsensical.
Sometimes, patience was the key.
Gu Juexi didn’t expect this. Since Ye Yuwei was willing to explain it to him patiently, he was willing to listen attentively.
Gu Juexi arched an eyebrow. He took a moment then uttered, “I’m sorry, I won’t do it again.”
Hearing Gu Juexi’s once-in-a-blue-moon apology, Ye Yuwei wasn’t as delighted as she thought she would be.
Marriage was a journey of learning how to make decisions together, and working together through the challenges and disagreements of daily life. They still had a long way to go.
“Excuse me, I need to change so can you guys go somewhere else for your lovey-dovey business?” Xiao Yaojing asked sarcastically as she leaned against the lounge’s door, watching the two adults who were about to kiss.
Ye Yuwei reeled back in shock.
Gu Juexi just narrowed his eyes at her, unembarrassed. He pulled the blushing Ye Yuwei tightly into his embrace and sneered at Xiao Yaojing, “Unfortunately, the white gown can’t hide your gangster vibe.”
“Gu Juexi, you—” Xiao Yaojing snarled furiously but Gu Juexi was already leaving with Ye Yuwei.
Ye Yuwei laughed in spite of their friendship. Judging by the way Gu Juexi talked to Xiao Yaojing, it seemed like she was included in his friends’ list. There was no way Gu Juexi would treat a stranger like this.
Xiao Yaojing frowned in annoyance. ‘Do I have to thank him for making me his friend?’
Not a chance!
