But of course, she wouldn’t really leave. Instead of teasing him, she contacted Xiao Yaojing to ask about the situation there.

The property market had collapsed to a new low. It would be like trying to squeeze blood from a stone if the Gu family tried to recover from the loss. Ye Yuwei thanked her for the information and asked when they would come back.

Xiao Yaojing was still at the apartment. She glanced at Wen Shan who followed Nalan Chunbo around like a duckling following her mother and wondered why she let her come looking for her Papa Nalan.

Yes, she admitted it was her fault.

“I’ll be back tomorrow or the day after, before Wen Tao can whine that we spent too much of your man’s money again. He won’t even let us go out to have fun!” Xiao Yaojing complained furiously.

Ye Yuwei listened to the person on the other end of the line in confusion and turned to look at the man who was taking a power nap but refused to let go of her hand.

Didn’t he ask her to leave earlier? Now, he held her hand so tightly it was almost as though he thought she would disappear if he let go.

“Nonsense. He will reimburse everything,” Ye Yuwei chuckled and said, “I think it is more likely that PA Wen doesn’t want you to stay with my brother.”

“Oh, give me a break! Keep your sympathy for your brother. Every day, he is pestered by his long lost daughter, the one who studies physics. He’s practically going crazy!” Xiao Yaojing exclaimed. She turned around and looked at Wen Shan who was leaning against his door. “Wen Shan, grow a spine, will you? He is so frightened of you that he had to hide in his room.”

Wen Shan looked at Xiao Yaojing and sighed, “I just want to talk to him face-to-face.”

“Funny, I thought you wanted to eat him up,” Xiao Yaojing sneered.

“All of you are the same: so shallow. How can you say that about the love and respect I have for my Papa?” Wen Shan tutted, sounding resigned.

The corner of Ye Yuwei’s lips curled up slightly. “Does that mean that I am now an aunt?”

Xiao Yaojing waved the phone at Wen Shan. “Hey, the lady on the phone is your papa’s cousin by blood so you have to call her Aunt.”

Wen Shan crawled back onto the sofa. “I don’t want to, or else I have to call Brother Gu ‘Uncle’. No way.”

“Hah, I thought Brother Gu is your idol too? What’s the issue with calling him Uncle?” Xiao Yaojing scoffed.

“That’s different. Brother Gu is the idol type of idol while Nalan belongs to the fatherly type,” stated Wen Shan. She cupped her chin in her hand, looking like a hopelessly obsessed girl.

“She is beyond repair.” Xiao Yaojing sighed, giving up on her conversation with Wen Shan.

‘Yes, she is.’ Ye Yuwei thought.

“Tomorrow. Ask Wen Tao to book a flight for us tomorrow.” Xiao Yaojing leaned on the couch and stared at Wen Shan who was lying on the sofa, mumbling about what she should cook for her Papa Nalan for lunch.

Ye Yuwei agreed. Xiao Yaojing could help with PA Wen’s daily tasks when she got back; it would relieve some of the load on PA Wen’s shoulders. Ye Yuwei ended the call after a while.

After dinner, Lu Qichuan, Yu Jiangqing, and Song Helian paid them a visit. All three of them only had superficial injuries.

Ye Yuwei had trouble getting to her feet due to her leg injury, but Gu Juexi had no intention of letting her leave either.

“You really are a monster, recovering so fast after such a serious injury,” Yu Jiangqing tutted. He played a video on his phone and passed it to Gu Juexi.

Gu Juexi took the phone from him to look at it. It was footage from the CCTV outside the station.

“I got it from the Tech Department. Look at the footage between three minutes twenty-seven seconds and thirty-seven seconds, that’s when your car entered the station. There was a person passing by outside. We suspected they were either trailing you or they were there to confirm whether you were alive or dead,” Yu Jiangqing reported.

Ye Yuwei was stunned and quickly looked down at the video.

“Was it him?” Ye Yuwei asked uncertainly. She looked at the video, then at Gu Juexi.
