Chapter 556 - We Aren’t Saints V
As Wen Jie was the only one Gu Juexi had cared for, he agreed when Wen Jie asked him to marry Ye Yuwei. However, their marriage without love had been lonely and cold. Gu Juexi was afraid of giving someone else his heart as he was afraid his love would not be returned.
He was such a fool.
After walking for a while, Xixi became tired. She looked up at Ye Yuwei and stretched her arms out, wanting Ye Yuwei to carry her.
“Let me hold you.” Wen Jie squatted down and stroked Xixi’s face.
“Grandma, you are sick and I am too heavy. I want my mom to carry me,” Xixi said honestly.
“You are such a good girl. I love you so much.” Wen Jie gave Xixi a kiss on her cheek.
“I learned from my brother.” Xixi blushed in embarrassment and pointed at Ye Xicheng. She put her arms around Ye Yuwei’s neck as Ye Yuwei picked her up.
Ye Xicheng enjoyed listening to Xixi.
“If Gu Juexi had a sister, maybe he would be a different person,” Wen Jie murmured as she stood up and held Ye Xicheng’s hand.
“Mom, Gu Juexi is different from Gu Tianmu. You did your best,” Ye Yuwei protested hastily, her heart aching.
“Don’t worry, I’m fine. It’s just that Xicheng reminds me of Juexi. Did I tell you before? Juexi was such a gentleman when he was young.” Wen Jie smiled as she took a deep breath.
Ye Yuwei became quiet. She had always thought that Ye Xicheng was different from Gu Juexi but now she realized that Xicheng’s behavior had actually been inherited. Gu Tianmu had somehow managed to turn an angel into a devil.
Ye Yuwei recalled the things that Gu Tianmu had told her and could not help but think badly of him. ‘Who did he think he was to say that?’
“Mom, tell me more about Gu Juexi. Tell me everything that you never told me before,” Ye Yuwei suddenly said.
Previously, Ye Yuwei’s love was shallow while Gu Juexi knew nothing about love. Now, they could learn to love a person and start all over again.
Wen Jie could not believe what she had heard and nodded her head.
“Weiwei, you…”
“Mom, you are right. Previously, both of us only viewed the world from our own perspectives
and never put ourselves in each other’s shoes. Gu Juexi needs to learn, and I do too. If I want to spend my life with him, I want a different life.” Ye Yuwei said earnestly then hesitated.
“However, I don’t want Gu Juexi to know about this,” she added softly.
“Alright, I understand. I will tell him when he learns how to win a woman’s heart with roses, okay?” Wen Jie wiped away tears of joy.
Ye Yuwei’s lips curved into a smile. It seemed that Gu Juexi’s cactus had become popular news.
They bought a lot of clothes for the children. Just as Ye Yuwei wanted to pay, Wen Jie took out Gu Juexi’s credit card.
“Let Juexi pay for this. These are his children’s things, after all.” Wen Jie was right. Ye Yuwei put away her own card decisively.
Just as they were about to leave, two people came into view. Wen Jie’s face suddenly darkened.
“Mom, what’s wrong?”
