1065: This Boy Would Really Turn Out Extraordinary

This Boy Would Really Turn Out Extraordinary

Gu Juexi had always thought that Ye Xicheng didn't need that much fatherly love and affection because he was a wise and smart boy.1

As it turned out, he was very wrong. Again.

Ye Xicheng's concern for him was as clear as crystal, shown in his actions. Compared to his son, the hurtful words he had uttered tonight were a slap on his face. Ye Yuwei didn't blame him, but he could not forgive himself.

"Go ahead and rest, I'll go check on him," Gu Juexi said. He planted a gentle kiss on her forehead then left the room.

Ye Yuwei didn't stop him from leaving.

She hoped that Gu Juexi could see himself in Ye Xicheng, and he could finally understand Gu Tianmu's feelings when he put himself in his shoes.

After all, it was her aunt's wrongdoings that had affected Gu Juexi's childhood and his father-and-son relationship. She hoped that Gu Juexi and Gu Tianmu could bury the hatchet for their own good, as well as an act of atonement for her aunt.

Ye Yuwei sighed deeply.

When Gu Juexi entered the children's bedroom next door, both of them were already fast asleep.

Ye Xicheng's sleeping position was like a soldier, straight and constrained. This time, Gu Juexi didn't approach his daughter, and instead walked toward Ye Xicheng and sat at his bedside. The little boy was frowning even in his sleep.

Gu Juexi reached over to soothe the wrinkles on his tiny forehead, the image of the boy staring sadly at him imprinted in his mind. It was a look of great disappointment.

To him, the expression was lethal.

Gu Juexi bent down to gently kiss Ye Xicheng's forehead and helped him adjust his blanket.

Gu Juexi sat by the bedside for a while longer. As he got to his feet, he glanced at his son's bedside table. He sat back down and reached for the cards on the table. They were not cartoons or animation cards but the cards of characters from major Marvel movies. One of them was from the recently released Black Panther movie.

It seemed like the little guy wanted to save the world, given his fondness of superhero movies.

Yu Jiangqing had told him before that he wanted this boy because he saw his young self in him.

He was thirteen when he first met Yu Jiangqing, but his son was only a few months shy of six years old.

This boy would really turn out extraordinary.

At the very least, he would overtake his accomplishments and be even more successful.

If his previous reason for not going back was Ye Yuwei, right now, it was for this little guy. If he went back, it would build a nice pavement for Ye Xicheng and a smooth voyage didn't do any good for him. He was more suited to walk on the road less traveled.

He would be Ye Xicheng's lighthouse— encouraging him to stand back up when he fell but not paving the road for him.

Gu Juexi scanned the movie cards before he walked out of the room.

He took out his phone and called PA Wen when he was outside the bedroom. At the moment, PA Wen and Xiao Yaojing were wandering aimlessly in the park before heading home.

"The Black Panther figurine? It's not out yet." PA Wen listened to his CEO's demands. He felt like his CEO had suffered a brain injury after the eventful trip.

"Then customize one. I want to see it by this weekend," Gu Juexi ordered sternly.

PA Wen looked at Xiao Yaojing after his CEO abruptly ended their call and grimaced, "He went crazy again."

Xiao Yaojing snarled, "Do you dare say that to his face?"

PA Wen was flabbergasted. Sorry, he didn't dare to; he was a wuss.

"Hurry up and go do what your CEO ordered you to do," Xiao Yaojing mocked.
