Chapter 965 - What If Wen Lan Wasn't the One Who Wanted to Harm Mom?

Panda Novel

Gu Juexi frowned slightly, took the phone and looked at the screen. It was an email but not from him this time. He guessed it was from Nalan Chunbo.

His son was truly an expert in checking other people’s inboxes.

However, Gu Juexi’s frown deepened when he read the email. “You are still young. This is none of your business, let me solve this matter,” Gu Juexi said to his son firmly.

“But Mommy will be in danger,” exclaimed Ye Yucheng stubbornly.

Gu Juexi looked at the little boy in front of him who was clenching his fists tightly. He looked determined to protect his beloved mother.

“If you want to protect your mother, you must become stronger. It is not that time for you yet so let Daddy solve this,” assured Gu Juexi. He reached out and put his hand on Ye Xicheng’s shoulder. “Before you can have full control of a situation, you have to practice moderation.”

Xixi lifted her head and turned to her mother in confusion. She could not understand what her daddy was talking about.

Ye Xicheng slowly unclenched his fists and looked up at Gu Juexi with a worried expression on his face. “Is Mommy really going to be alright?”

“I give you my word,” swore Gu Juexi. It was a serious promise to his son.

Ye Yuwei hugged her daughter and gazed at her son lovingly. Her heart was filled with warmth for her children.

An innocent daughter and a sensible son; and to top it all off, a guy who had control over the situation for her. What more could she ask for?

Gu Juexi read the message again after he managed to appease his son. It was sent to Nalan Chunbo by Mo Fei, and stated that her first attempt to protect Ye Yuwei’s safety was successful today so there were nine more chances left.

That meant someone had made a move today.

Gu Juexi stood up and walked away to make a phone call.

This matter could not be delayed anymore.

Ye Yuwei went to the study room after she changed her clothes. Gu Juexi was sitting on a chair, relaxing with his eyes closed when he heard Ye Yuwei walking into the room. “What did we miss that is the key to solving everything?” asked Gu Juexi without opening his eyes.

Ye Yuwei put her hands on Gu Juexi’s shoulders and massaged them gently. “Perhaps Aunt Gu knows the truth about the runaway incident. Once we find out, maybe we can relate all these incidents in a way that we could not before,” suggested Ye Yuwei.

“If your father only wanted to have revenge for your aunt, he could just ask for Nalan Chunbo’s help. Why did he need me to interfere in this matter in the first place?” Gu Juexi asked wearily. He was enjoying the way Ye Yuwei kneaded his sore shoulders. It relieved his shoulder pain.

She could not answer his question.

“Unless there is another issue that needs to be solved apart from your aunt’s problem,” said Gu Juexi calmly and opened his eyes.

Ye Yuwei’s hands paused. She was even more confused. “For whom? The culprit who harmed Mom that year was Wen Lan, but Wen Lan is already dead. Who else could it be?”

“What if Wen Lan wasn’t the one who wanted to harm Mom?” asked Gu Juexi suddenly. His voice sounded unsure since it was only his assumption.

Ye Yuwei looked at Gu Juexi in shock. “Not her?”

“I am not sure, it is only an assumption. It had better be her, because I will not let the person who harmed my mother get away that easily!” Gu Juexi growled fiercely. Rage flashed in his eyes.

Ye Yuwei was intimidated by the ruthlessness in his gaze. The whole issue had her feeling restless and disturbed.

Wen Jie was Gu Juexi’s limit. Evidently, his greatest obsession was not his father’s attitude towards him.
