Gu Juexi was standing in his room, waiting for Ye Yuwei for more than one hour from the moment Ye Yuwei reached the office. But she did not meet Gu Juexi immediately. Instead, she sat in a shady area and talked on the phone for an hour. Only when it was 2.15 did she get up to meet Gu Juexi.

Ye Yuwei used to reach early. Even if Gu Juexi had no time for her, PA Wen would inform him of her arrival. But now, Ye Yuwei would rather wait downstairs and did not want to meet him early.

It was a terrible feeling and he hated it.

However, Gu Juexi knew that anger would only worsen the whole situation. The corners of his lips slightly lifted. He should thank the person who sent him the picture so he could regain his composure in an instant.

Knock, knock. Someone knocked on the door.

Gu Juexi turned his head to look at the door. He knew that Ye Yuwei was behind it. Gu Juexi returned to his desk as if he had never stood near the window.

“Come in.”

“CEO, Miss Ye is here.” The secretary informed Gu Juexi.

Gu Juexi looked up at the secretary who was standing at the door. Ye Yuwei did not come in. She was still waiting outside.

“Alright. Let her in. You may go out.” Gu Juexi said.

The secretary nodded and made a gesture, signaling Ye Yuwei to go in the room.

“What’s wrong with CEO? He actually brought Ye Yuwei out for a date yesterday.”

“You still don’t get it? It was in the headlines that CEO had an affair with Miss Bai yesterday morning. Of course he should make good use of his legal wife.”

All the excited chatter ended when the door closed.

“Mr. Gu, are you looking for me?” Ye Yuwei took a deep breath trying not to let herself affected by the gossip and looked up at Gu Juexi.

“Mrs. Gu, you seemed happy when you had lunch with someone else. Why are you so different when you are with me?” Gu Juexi leaned back and stared at Ye Yuwei who was standing far away from him. His lips curved into a sneer.

“What do you mean?” Ye Yuwei could not believe what she had just heard, her face changed instantly when she looked Gu Juexi in his eyes.

Gue Juexi got up slowly with a phone in his grip. Seeing Gue Juexi approaching her, Ye Yuwei tightened her grasp on the doc.u.ments.

Each step Gu Jue move forward, Ye Yuwei took a step back until she could no longer retreat, she was pressed against the door once again. Gu Juexi slowly raised the phone in his hand and a picture appeared before Ye Yuwei’s eyes.

“You stalked me?” Ye Yuwei asked in shock.

“Stalk you? Do I need to do that?” Gu Juexi merely sneered.

They were too close to each other and Ye Yuwei could feel his breath on her face. Ye Yuwei bit her lips together and him in the eyes.

“Mrs. Gu, don’t forget your ident.i.ty.” Gu Juexi nudged her chin up forcefully with his hand, leaned over and pressed his lips against hers, kissing her fiercely.

“Oh, I’m sorry for ruining your ingenious trick yesterday night.” Ye Yuwei furrowed her brow, pushed him away and wiped her lips.

A trick? Yesterday night? Gu Juexi’s face suddenly darkened. All his efforts went down to drain. She had never trusted him.
