Chapter 696 - Ye Yuwei’s Decision
“People who came to see Auntie Mao?” Butler Kim repeated Ye Yuwei’s question and frowned as he tried to recall.
Ye Yuwei nodded and looked at Butler Kim hoping that he could provide some useful information.
“Not many came to visit. It was just Master and Aunt Gu, but they didn’t come to see Auntie Mao,” Butler Kim recalled.
Only Gu Tianmu and Aunt Gu. Auntie Mao could have told them from the start if she really had planned to tell them about it, what made her tell them about it only at the last minute?
Ye Yuwei didn’t know.
Ye Yuwei insisted on delaying Auntie Mao’s burial until Gu Juexi got back. Auntie Mao meant a lot to Gu Juexi so he had to be there when she was buried.
Meanwhile, PA Wen was already carrying out the tasks that Gu Juexi had left to him. He had been acquiring the companies under Gu International which were not making much profit.
Ye Yuwei didn’t go to Country X because she couldn’t reach Nalan Chunbo, so she troubled Xiao Yaojing who was going to quit her job to run the errands.
Although she did not like Gu Juexi, Xiao Yaojing could tell it was important and had been cooperative.
“This is a friend of mine who stayed in Country X. There is an address at the back, I bought the house when I was there. Go straight to this place and she should help you with what I told you to do,” Ye Yuwei said as she passed Xiao Yaojing a namecard.
Xiao Yaojing kept the namecard properly and looked at Ye Yuwei who was obviously sleep-deprived. “Gu Juexi really is something. Didn’t Cheng Jie lose in their battle? So don’t worry about him.”
Ye Yuwei sat down at the side of the bed and listened to Xiao Yaojing. “I am not worried, there is just something that I have to do. Brother Lu said that Qian Yikun left B City to Country X last night and I wonder if it was because of something Gu Juexi did.” Ye Yuwei looked at Xiao Yaojing and said, “You have to ask PA Wen if you need more details. He will know better.”
“Actually, don’t you think that Gu Juexi is actually capable of settling things on his own? What if you being there caused him more trouble?” said Xiao Yaojing in a serious tone. “I have to admit that he is capable even though I don’t like him, Yezi.”
“There are things that I need to do. Gu Juexi said that this is just the beginning, meaning that there might be more things coming after he gets back,” Ye Yuwei said and looked away. “There is no reason why I shouldn’t go to the Bai family.”
“I don’t know what to say.” Knowing that Ye Yuwei had made up her mind, Xiao Yaojing let out a sigh. “I feel that things between you two really would be better after you two come back safely together,” Xiao Yaojing said and got up from the chair. “I think Wen Shan doesn’t have many things going on, maybe I should take her with me and claim our expenses from Mr. Gu.”
“Of course,” Ye Yuwei chuckled. “Check in on my brother when you got there?”
“That is what Wen Shan is best at—looking for her father. That’s totally her special talent.” Xiao Yaojing tried to sound calm, but finally reached out to pull Ye Yuwei into her arms. “Please come back safely no matter what.”
“I will.” Ye Yuwei nodded and hugged Xiao Yaojing too.
She had a family and a home. How could she not come back?
