1117: Let Her Retreat Until She Reaches a Dead End

Let Her Retreat Until She Reaches a Dead End

When Gu Juexi wanted to swipe her hand away, he saw the messages on her phone and frowned in irritation. "What the hell?"2

"What do you see?" Ye Yuwei wiggled her way out of Gu Juexi's embrace.

"What do I see? An idiot?" Gu Juexi smirked and sat upright by the bedside.

Ye Yuwei rolled her eyes at his sarcastic tease. "The feeling of youth."

"We are young," Gu Juexi exclaimed without a hint of shame.

Ye Yuwei looked at him in disgust. She felt sick and wanted to throw up, and those feelings weren't the kind due to pregnancy.

"What are you trying to say?" Gu Juexi ignored her disgust and asked.

Ye Yuwei flashed her phone to his face and said, "I used to go all the way to A City to listen to your speech."

"So, are you telling me that your love to me has faded?" Gu Juexi probed as he pulled Ye Yuwei to sit on his lap.

Ye Yuwei shrieked in surprise. Just as she regained her focus, she was already sitting on Gu Juexi's lap. 

Gu Juexi felt a little concerned and disturbed by Ye Yuwei's remark. She used to be an energetic and lively girl. He had turned her into what she was now.

However, no matter what she was now, she was still his Ye Yuwei, wasn't she?

"I just want to say, it's good to be young. I hope my brother can cherish her. I don't want him to regret it when they end up like us," Ye Yuwei sighed.

"How have we ended up, by the way? Enlighten me," Gu Juexi demanded in a tone of dissatisfaction. Why did she sound like they had ended up badly?

Ye Yuwei rolled her eyes again, refusing to comment on his hubris.

"I won't let you run away this time. I'll give you the speech at R University," Gu Juexi said and planted a kiss on her ear.

A kiss, a statement.

Ye Yuwei trembled a little, unsure if it was because of the statement or the kiss.

Years ago, she had made an arduous journey to attend his speech.

Years later, he said he would go to R University to give her a speech.

Actually, he cared about her, didn't he?

Ye Yuwei pondered and held his hands. "Would you do it just for me?"

"Of course! Did you think I'd do it for your obtuse and simpleton alumni?" Gu Juexi chided in a tone of despise.

Ye Yuwei twitched her lips in amusement. "There are good students too."

 "Hmm, the best one is in my arms." The sudden change in attitude caught Ye Yuwei off guard.

The corner of her lips broke into an uncontrollable smile. Hundred points for the sweet-talk.

"Have your breakfast," Gu Juexi said, pushing Ye Yuwei to her feet. "I wonder if you're really a fool. You shouldn't walk away just because she's got on your nerves, you didn't get to eat anything."

'It's because you haven't proposed to me!'

Ye Yuwei cried out inside her mind.

Seeing that these were all her favorite food, she decided to let him off this time. I would deal with you in the next life.

Gu Juexi gazed adoringly at Ye Yuwei who was eating her breakfast happily. How could he let her make all the compromises and give in all the time? Every concession she made, he would compensate. When she took a step back, he would approach her one step forward, until she reached a dead end with nowhere to turn.

Since he could not stop her from making compromises, he would just let her retreat until she reaches a dead end.

The least he could do was to remain in front of her at all times.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" As she was having her meal, the stare from the man sitting across from her was making her uneasy.
