Chapter 673 - It Looked Like Gu Juexi Had Met His Biggest Challenge—Qian Yikun
Gu Juexi looked at Ye Yuwei who had fainted and drew back his hand. The microchip that he had implanted in Ye Yuwei’s neck had been removed when Cheng Jie took her, and it was Bai Yuyan who had brought Ye Yuwei to Cheng Jie.
Gu Juexi looked at Ye Yuwei intently and began to recall the old days. He neglected the fact that the person who Bai Yuyan loved and cared about the most was Qian Yikun. He should have noticed that when Bai Yuyan showed how jealous she was when Qian Yikun and Ye Yuwei won the couple rings.
So it was highly possible that Bai Yuyan would do anything that Qian Yikun told her to.
Qian Yikun actually knew about the microchip in Ye Yuwei from the start, and that was why he lost track of Ye Yuwei when he got to grips with Cheng Jie.
Qian Yikun made Bai Yuyan remove the microchip in Ye Yuwei to distract him, in hopes that he would perish together with Cheng Jie while Qian Yikun reaped all the benefits.
He had been wondering why Ye Yuwei’s microchip stopped working and it looked like this was it.
Qian Yikun had been watching his battle with Cheng Jie very closely.
Bai Yuyan loved Qian Yikun enough to tell him her real identity. Qian Yikun was the first to find Ye Yuwei when she was in trouble, but he only did so to threaten Bai Ying with Ye Yuwei’s life.
Gu Juexi figured it all out and looked at Ye Yuwei. Bai Ying was no longer the one at the helm of Bai family, and the power had fallen into the hands of an outsider—Qian Yikun.
Gu Juexi could feel his sweat drenching his shirt.
Never would he have joined the dots if it Ye Yuwei and him hadn’t fought, if Ye Yuwei hadn’t come back, if those things hadn’t happened tonight, and if the microchip in Ye Yuwei hadn’t been removed.
He couldn’t imagine if he really did go to the Bai family’s fortress and put his focus on the third or six patriarchs without first getting the full picture.
Gu Juexi took Ye Yuwei to the apartment, and began to think after putting Ye Yuwei down gently on the bed. If Qian Yikun was the one who did it, why would he allow Ye Yuwei to see him? Shouldn’t he be worried about Ye Yuwei telling things to Gu Juexi? Shouldn’t he have stopped Gu Juexi from taking Ye Yuwei with him?
But Qian Yikun just stood there and watched when he took Ye Yuwei away with him.
It looked like Gu Juexi had met his biggest challenge—Qian Yikun.
Gu Juexi sat down at the side of the bed and looked at the woman who was sound asleep with her brows knitted. “I must have owed you a lot in our past lives,” Gu Juexi mumbled, and then noticed the sweat on Ye Yuwei’s forehead and her anxiousness in her sleep.
Gu Juexi quickly wrapped his arms around Ye Yuwei and comforted her gently. “I am here… it’s okay.” Probably because of how gentle Gu Juexi sounded, Ye Yuwei quickly calmed down with her hand still holding the corner of Gu Juexi’s shirt.
Gu Juexi continued to wrap his arms around Ye Yuwei and did not let go even after she fell asleep again.
Meanwhile, poor PA Wen was trying to taking care of the drunk Xiao Yaojing and contact the media to spread the news at the same time. He had no idea what it was about, but it must be something big judging from how Gu Juexi sounded when he spoke to him. Another reason why it must be something big was because Mrs. Gu was directly involved in the incident.
It was already the next morning when Wen Jie saw the news. She called Gu Juexi immediately and was assured only after making sure that Ye Yuwei was alright.
“How would you let a woman stay at a hotel all by herself? What were you thinking?” Wen Jie demanded angrily.
Gu Juexi was going to say something to defend himself, but finally ended up apologizing to his mother.
