Gu Juexi hurriedly reached out to muffle Ye Yuwei’s cry. He pulled her into the trees recklessly and they both nearly tumbled to the ground along the hillside.
Ye Yuwei had initially wanted to say something but she quickly understood Gu Juexi’s intention. He did not want to trouble the rescue team or take any credit for the rescue operation.
That was just like Gu Juexi.
Ye Yuwei pursed her lips and followed him but was quickly lifted up onto Gu Juexi’s back as the road ahead became difficult to tread.
“My right arm has been crippled before and doesn’t have much strength. This is the best option,” Gu Juexi explained softly. Before this, he would not have given her any explanation but now he was actually taking time to explain.
Ye Yuwei froze as the scene from six years ago flashed before her eyes. His arm had been hit twice–one shot fired by Cheng Jie and the other fired by her in a moment of panic.
Both shots had hit his right arm.
Ye Yuwei reached out and put her arms around Gu Juexi’s neck. She did not speak and simply rested her head on his shoulder. Gu Juexi remained quiet and continued carrying her down the mountain.
“It was just one night of heavy rain, how could the flood be so severe?” Ye Yuwei’s voice was still a little hoarse from all her screaming earlier.
“There is a dam behind the mountain, the water came from there. That is other people’s concern though and has nothing to do with us,” Gu Juexi explained. “What did you come here for?”
The last sentence carried a hint of hostility.
Ye Yuwei couldn’t help but roll her eyes. Was it any wonder she could never have a good impression of this man?
“Your girl said that she wants her Daddy to come home, I just came to pass you that message. What were you thinking?” Ye Yuwei replied icily but her arms tightened around him.
Gu Juexi smiled coldly and quickened his pace going down the mountain.
“Master Yao Lao promised to treat Xixi’s illness. Gu Juexi, thank you,” Ye Yuwei murmured sincerely.
When Gu Juexi heard Ye Yuwei’s words, his expression turned nasty. “I am saving my little girl. What does it have to do with you that you feel the need to thank me?”
“Gu Juexi, you–” Ye Yuwei was once again annoyed with Gu Juexi. ‘This man–how was it that he didn’t even know how to speak properly?’
By the time the two returned to the hotel, the rainstorm had already stopped. As Master Yao Lao was in their room, Ye Yuwei made a reservation for another room so that Gu Juexi could rest comfortably.
Gu Juexi went to his room to take a shower. Ye Yuwei went back to her room to get his clothes and was immediately hugged by Xixi when she entered. The little girl immediately asked, “Where’s Daddy?”
“Daddy is back and resting in the other room. When he has finished, he will come over. You should go play with your brother first,” Ye Yuwei said while searching for a change of clothes and undergarments in Gu Juexi’s suitcase. She then turned around and was about to leave.
“Mommy, his phone was ringing just now,” Ye Xicheng said as he brought over Gu Juexi’s phone.
Ye Yuwei took it from him and went to the other room. When Ye Yuwei entered, Gu Juexi was still taking a shower. “Gu Juexi, PA Wen called your phone a few times.”
“Call back and ask him what it is about,” Gu Juexi’s muffled reply came instantly.
Ye Yuwei hesitated as she looked down at the phone in her hand. She was to call him? How would she know Gu Juexi’s phone password? Previously, she didn’t even have the right to touch his mobile phone, let alone know his password.
