Chapter 892 - Gu Juexi’s Conjecture I
Xixi was sobbing very softly and Gu Juexi managed to hear every word that Ye Yuwei said.
Gu Juexi really was innocent this time. He had told Ye Yuwei everything that he knew, and he had only learned about the real time of Ye Di’s death when he got the call from Lu Qichuan.
Feeling wronged, Gu Juexi opened his mouth but said nothing. He had told her everything he knew and was still being accused of lying.
Xixi was still crying so he had no choice but to comfort his daughter first.
After Xixi fell asleep, Gu Juexi carried his son to the bed and told him to watch his sister before he left the room.
It was 11 at night and the glimmer of moonlight was all over the yard where Gu Juexi and Ye Yuwei sat side by side on a bench.
The lights in Wen Jie’s room were still on and the atmosphere in the yard was awkward.
“I didn’t lie to you,” Gu Juexi said finally, breaking the silence.
Ye Yuwei scoffed at what Gu Juexi said and it frightened Gu Juexi.
“I did tell you everything I know. I even confirmed with you if Nalan Chunbo was lying,” said Gu Juexi quickly. He couldn’t maintain a cold expression anymore as he explained himself.
Ye Yuwei stared at Gu Juexi. She knew that he wasn’t lying, but looking at him being nervous made her feel better.
“So what is going on now?” Ye Yuwei knew that Gu Juexi must have collected most of the information by now.
Gu Juexi reached out to hold Ye Yuwei’s hand and held it even tighter when Ye Yuwei tried to pull her hand away.
“We are not sure if it is true, but you aunt gave birth to Nalan Chunbo while she was underage. We have no clue who the father was, but…” Gu Juexi looked at Ye Yuwei as he said, “but whoever it was, what he did was illegal.”
Ye Yuwei could feel herself tensing up at the information.
“Nalan Chunbo should be older than me by a few months according to the time your aunt passed away. My mother eloped somewhere in between and like you said, my mother had me in order to protect the man she eloped with. Rumors say that the man that she eloped with was…Ye Shu.”
Ye Yuwei looked at Gu Juexi in disbelief and became confused as she thought about it.
She refused to believe it.
“That can’t be right,” Ye Yuwei gripped Gu Juexi’s hand tightly and said, “my father and your mother couldn’t have eloped at that time after what happened to my aunt.” Ye Yuwei said it hastily, refusing to believe that her father and her mother-in-law once had an affair.
“Let me finish,” Gu Juexi said as he held Ye Yuwei’s hand tightly.
Still not able to accept the facts, Ye Yuwei blinked, dazed.
“Haven’t you been asking why Gu Tianmy hates you so much?” asked Gu Juexi with his hands on her shoulders, “this is why.”
Why Gu Tianmu hated her so much. She had asked Gu Juexi the question more than once, but even someone as great as Gu Juexi couldn’t seem to answer her.
“So he didn’t like me earlier because I told him that I suggested Mother divorce him, but he hated my guts after he bought the name from Aunt Gu,” Ye Yuwei’s lips trembled as she spoke, and even her hands began to tremble, “because the name that he got…was Ye Shu.”
How did the person who seemed to have the least to do with this family feud become so deeply involved?
