Chapter 984 - Gu Juexi Has Suddenly Gone Mad
Gu Juexi walked into the mansion slowly. This was the place where his mother grew up. This was also the place where his mother’s painful fate began.
The mansion was empty, and Gu Juexi walked down the hall towards the rooms. He made his way to Wen Jie’s room and noticed that the lock on the room was covered in dust. It had been a long time since the place was cleaned.
Ye Yuwei was looking at Nalan Chunbo when a loud banging startled her. It sounded like someone was trying to break a lock. Ye Yuwei was stunned when she saw Gu Juexi push the room door open and walk right into it.
“Gu—” Before Ye Yuwei could finish, the door closed.
She could only stare at Nalan Chunbo in confusion and frustration as he looked at his surroundings.
Wen Jie’s room had a musty smell to it since it hadn’t been cleaned in a while. Gu Juexi opened the window to allow sunlight in. There was a photo frame on the bed. Gu Juexi picked it up and saw a picture of a young man about the age of ten standing next to two girls; one looked a few years older but she was slightly taller than Wen Jie.
Gu Juexi had never seen his mother smile like that.
The little girl next to Wen Jie wore a smile but from Gu Juexi’s point of view, she looked like a devil. He gripped the photo frame tightly, then flung it to the ground.
“Gu Juexi—” Ye Yuwei shouted as she barged into the room after hearing glass break. Her hand still on the doorknob, her eyes locked on the broken photo frame before her.
