Chapter 254: He was Here
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The atmosphere in the elevator became tense when Gu Juexi almost flipped out because of Ye Yuwei’s accusation.
As if knowing that Ye Yuwei was trying to get away from him, Gu Juexi quickly grabbed on her wrist right after the door opened and dragged her to his car.
“Let go of me,” said Ye Yuwei as she struggled to get off Gu Juexi but to no avail. Gu Juexi stuffed her into his car and leaned over to fastened her seatbelt when she tried to get out the car.
“Please just stay put before you are strong enough to go against me, so it doesn’t look so embarrassing when you fail,” whispered Gu Juexi beside Ye Yuwei’s ear.
Ye Yuwei simmered down at what Gu Juexi said. She bit on her lips and tightened her grip on Gu Juexi’s arm so hard that where she held turned red.
Gu Juexi remained calm and collected, and slowly Ye Yuwei let go of his arm. Gu Juexi smiled and lifted Ye Yuwei’s chin. “The scariest thing a person can do is to choose a path which he doesn’t belong to.”
What Gu Juexi did not say was that Ye Yuwei should go back to the path that she belonged to—the path where she loved him with her whole heart.
Ye Yuwei looked at Gu Juexi’s face and swiped his hand off her chin. “Mr. Gu is right. I am trying my best to go back to my own path now.”
Gu Juexi sneered at what Ye Yuwei said, slammed the car door and started the car engine after he got into the car from the other side.
Ye Yuwei was upset but she knew that Gu Juexi was right about how she was not strong enough to go against him now. At the same time, it was impossible for her to go back to loving him like how she used to.
“I have to remind you to be careful about the money from Bo Shen Enterprise. I saw Mr. Cheng today, I really think that…” Before Ye Yuwei could finish the sentence, her scream rang in the air when Gu Juexi used the emergency brake which caused her to fall forward.
“You saw Cheng Jie today?” asked Gu Juexi with a ghastly look.
Ye Yuwei was going to act up about the emergency brake but was frightened when she saw Gu Juexi’s face—a face filled with hatred and coldness.
“Yes, I did,” said Ye Yuwei softly, upon which Gu Juexi went back to normal and continued driving as if the question was never asked.
“What did he say to you?” Gu Juexi’s voice went back to normal too, but Ye Yuwei could not forget how he looked just now.
“Nothing, he asked some questions,” Yu Yuwei pretended to be calm and said.
“What did he ask?”
“Why should I tell you?” Ye Yuwei got impatient at Gu Juexi’s endless questions and snarled, thinking that she should not have brought up seeing Cheng Jie this morning.
Gu Juexi tapped his fingers on the steering wheel rhythmically while thinking to himself, ‘Yu Jiangqing did not leave his house at all today, how could Ye Yuwei have seen Cheng Jie? Unless… he was here!’
Ye Yuwei did not know what went through in Gu Juexi’s mind, but the man was smiling. A smile that so cold that it made Ye Yuwei shiver. A smile that was totally different from how the man who gave her his autograph back then smiled. A smile that was with a hint of brutality.
