After reading the message, Gu Juexi snorted and pushed his cell phone in front of Chu Ningyi. Chu Ningyi lowered his eyes briefly before clicking his tongue twice in disdain. “Diamagnetism has always existed. I just didn’t expect someone to use it. Is this what you want to talk to me about?”
Gu Juexi raised an eyebrow as he stared at the man sitting opposite him while leaning back in his own chair. “Other than the danger within, this is also something that I wish to talk to you about. I find the twisted nature of the parallel space quite interesting. I’ve brooded about this before.”
“There are many illogical things in this world. My wife is the best example.” Who would have thought that Shui Anluo would be surrounded by miraculous phenomena? At the very least, she was excluded from all forms of accidental death.
Gu Juexi had heard of this matter before. It was bizarre indeed. After all, all these topics about the Dragoness were too metaphysical.
“I think it’s very intriguing,” Gu Juexi said as he retrieved his phone and put it aside.
Chu Ningyi cocked his head back to glance at the bedroom. “The only thing that intrigues me right now is to stop those people from messing with me. I’ll keep my wife and child company.”
Gu Juexi agreed.
“Are you really not going to get back into the game?” Chu Ningyi suddenly asked.
Gu Juexi twirled the phone in his hand. “It has nothing to do with me anymore. Everything’s great now too. I’d never have expected you to be his lobbyist.”
Chu Ningyi nodded in respecting Gu Juexi’s choices.
Who would throw away a life spent with their wives and children? It was nice to be able to watch the show from the side occasionally too.
The two men had once climbed to the top of the pyramid and ruthlessly crashed to the bottom. It was not that they lost the ability to get back up. They simply chose to live another life.
The two of them stopped talking. Gu Juexi got up. He should be getting home or Ye Yuwei would start to worry if she did not see him when she woke up.
A country’s advancement was often linear to the stability of family units in the country.
How are you supposed to rule the world if your family was in ruins?
This was the lesson that they exchanged with their lives.
It was half-past one in the morning when Gu Juexi returned. It was still raining cats and dogs out there.
After taking a shower, he lifted the blanket and got into bed. Without opening her eyes, Ye Yuwei asked, “You went out again?”
Gu Juexi paused for a moment before pulling his wife into his arms. “I went to see Chu Ningyi. It’s fine.”
After Gu Juexi finished speaking, Ye Yuwei’s eyes snapped open. “You—”
Gu Juexi blinked his eyes at her. “Go back to sleep. Nothing happened. I won’t go back on what I’ve promised you.”
Ye Yuwei turned around and buried herself in Gu Juexi’s arms, wrapping her arms around his waist.
She was truly afraid. She would always be afraid that Gu Juexi would attend events like those.
Each of them was more dangerous than the next. Even if Gu Juexi was a god, she would not dare to rule out any accidents.
The heavy rain kept pouring until the next afternoon—it was a real spring rain.
Xi Xi and Ye Xicheng could not go to school because it was raining, so school was off for them.
Xi Xi held her chin as she stared at the heavy rain outside. It was so boring at home.
“Mommy, when can I go to school?” Xi Xi sighed softly. “I haven’t seen Brother Yuan Mo for almost a day now.” She had not seen her Brother Yuan Mo since school ended last night.
Ye Yuwei was speechless. She knew that Yuan Mo had transferred to Xi Xi’s primary school. Although Yuan Mo did not say why, they were well-aware.
“We’ll be able to go to school tomorrow, and we’ll be able to see your Brother Yuan Mo then,” Ye Yuwei said as she guided her son to do his homework. Then, she tragically realized that her son did not need her guidance at all!
