As soon as Gu Kuangyuan left, the housemaid hurriedly called Cheng Ye, "Mr. Cheng, madam has packed her things and left."
Cheng Ye was in a eting, and he terminated it imdiately upon hearing the housemaid’s words, "What do you an she left? Where did she go?"
"I don’t know, madam didn’t say."
Cheng Ye returned to his office and called Gu Kuangyuan’s number from the office phone, only to be told it was turned off.
He asked the housemaid, "Did madam act oddly this morning?"
The housemaid hesitated and said, "Not really, she slept till noon and when she got up, I was washing the sheets. Madam saw... there was so... on the sheets."
Cheng Ye punched his forehead. He forgot to destroy the evidence, and she’d seen it.
"I got it."
Cheng Ye hung up, grabbed his coat, and dashed downstairs.
Jiang Yuan blocked him, "Where are you going? Today’s eting is important!"
Cheng Ye said, "No matter how important it is, it’s not as important as my wife. She’s run away from ho."
Jiang Yuan didn’t believe him, "The eldest miss of the Gu Family ran away from ho? She seed like such a gentle person!"
Cheng Ye didn’t want to waste ti, "The contract is on my desk. Unless it’s important, don’t call ."
Gossip bubbles popped up in Jiang Yuan’s mind. The eldest miss of the Gu Family ran away from ho. This was big! Would President Gu target their law firm because of this?
Given President Gu’s cold, sinister personality, it was hard to say.
Jiang Yuan inwardly prayed, hoping Cheng Ye could coax his wife back ho.
Cheng Ye had just gotten into the car when he received a call from Gu Yikun. Gu Yikun said, "Cheng Ye, I’m giving you fifteen minutes. Get back to the Gu Family and apologize to your wife imdiately!"
Cheng Ye felt relieved. She had gone back to the Gu Family; at least she was safe.
The Gu Family Villa was in the suburbs. Cheng Ye sped all the way and arrived at the Gu Family’s hall right on the fifteen-minute mark.
Gu Kuangyuan was sitting on the sofa with her back to him. Gu Yikun grabbed Cheng Ye by the collar, "How dare you make my aunt cry, you’re gutsy!"
Gu Kuangyuan was afraid Yi Ke would hit her husband, so she couldn’t help but peek back. If Yi Ke really hit him, she would definitely intervene.
An Junxi tried to calm her husband, "Yikun, don’t do this. Let’s give them so space to talk."
Not wanting to scare his wife, Gu Yikun released his grip, "Cheng Ye, if there’s no reasonable explanation today, auntie will move back here. You only get one chance."
Cheng Ye adjusted his tie, "My wife naturally lives with , why would she move back here?"
Seeing his confidence, Gu Yikun balled his fist ready to strike. An Junxi grabbed her husband’s arm, "Let’s go upstairs to see the kids."
Gu Yikun was pulled upstairs by his wife, and the housekeeper asked the maids to leave the hall to give them so privacy.
Cheng Ye sat next to his wife and wrapped his arm around her waist. Gu Kuangyuan pushed him away, "Don’t touch !"
Cheng Ye forcefully held her in his arms despite her struggling, "Xiao Yuan, do you really want a child so much?"
Gu Kuangyuan tearily said, "Not anymore, I don’t want to have your child!"
Cheng Ye wiped her tears away, "Don’t cry, you know I can’t bear to see you cry."
"No, you can’t bear it. Don’t try to sweet-talk , you’re just brushing off!"
"Your health isn’t good. The doctor said pregnancy would be risky. Xiao Yuan, even if we don’t have kids, we can still be happy."
Gu Kuangyuan was stunned, "What? When did the doctor say that?"
So it was her problem? Is that why they couldn’t have children?
Cheng Ye showed a hint of pain in his eyes but quickly hid it. His tone beca lighter, "Last ti when your digestive system was acting up and you were hospitalized, I had the doctor check on you... It’s fine, if we don’t have kids, we can still be okay. If you like Jing Yue, we can visit more often."
Gu Kuangyuan couldn’t believe the situation, "Did the doctor say I’m an elderly pregnant woman, unfit to carry a child?"
Cheng Ye didn’t want her to be sad, so he skirted the issue, "The reason doesn’t matter; we can adopt a child."
Gu Kuangyuan cried, "It’s my fault. My health is poor, and I can’t even have children..."
Cheng Ye feared she would overthink, "Don’t say that. Compared to you and a child, I only want you. Without you, how would I live?"
He didn’t want his wife blaming herself and kissed her tenderly, "Xiao Yuan, it’s my fault. We grew up together; if I had the courage to confess earlier, we wouldn’t have wasted so much ti. It’s my fault."
Gu Kuangyuan stubbornly said, "So what if one doctor said it? We’ll see more doctors. Modern dicine is advanced; there must be a way. Many people older than have had children."
Cheng Ye’s hands shook slightly as he held her, "Xiao Yuan, you’re very brave, but I’m scared. I’m scared of losing you. I don’t want to take the risk, not even a bit."
Gu Kuangyuan wrapped her arms around his neck, "I’m not afraid. Hubby, I want us to have our child. Let’s try, okay?"
Cheng Ye stayed silent for a long ti. Gu Kuangyuan said, "If you don’t agree, I won’t go back ho. Divorce."
Cheng Ye raised his brow, lifted her over his shoulder, and playfully smacked her butt, "Divorce? Gu Kuangyuan, tonight your husband will show you what it ans to be truly angry."
Rembering how monstrous her husband had been last night, she panicked and shouted for Gu Yikun to save her.
Gu Yikun, not understanding the nuances, really wanted to go down and beat up Cheng Ye, but An Junxi stopped him, "They’re just playing around. Why interfere?"
Gu Yikun said, "She’s shouting for help; didn’t you hear?"
An Junxi rolled her eyes, "Didn’t I also shout for help when you... before?"
Gu Yikun recalled her seductive look on the bed, and a naughty thought ca to mind. He started behaving indecently, holding his wife, "Did you shout for help? I can’t rember. Maybe we should refresh my mory."
An Junxi, rembering how soone said she was fat and unattractive at the hotel yesterday, felt insecure and didn’t want her husband to touch her, "Stop ssing around. I’m not fully recovered yet; you don’t even care for your wife!"
Faced with such an accusation, Gu Yikun couldn’t argue, so he curbed his desires, saying, "I’ll wait another month."
He had waited so long; another month wouldn’t hurt.
An Junxi was calculating in her mind how she could only start dieting in a month, and how that didn’t seem feasible.
With both scheming their own thoughts upstairs, they paid no attention to Cheng Ye carrying Gu Kuangyuan away downstairs.
Cheng Ye brought his wife back ho, "Run away from ho again, and I’ll spank you."
Gu Kuangyuan dared not act rashly and negotiated with her husband, "If we have a child, I wouldn’t be able to run away even if I wanted to."
Cheng Ye found her argunt reasonable, but the doctor’s advice still lingered as a ntal block.
Gu Kuangyuan used all her tricks and spent a week convincing her husband. Finally, Cheng Ye relented, "We’ll try for a baby, but once you’re pregnant, you have to be obedient and not make worry, okay?"
Gu Kuangyuan imdiately beca a good girl, "I’ll be good."
Cheng Ye started undressing his wife, "Alright, let’s work hard."
Gu Kuangyuan was both nervous and excited, "Don’t be like last ti." She had been exhausted for half a day, and her husband hadn’t given her any seeds!
Cheng Ye chuckled, "Fine, but you have to work hard to turn on."
Gu Kuangyuan punched him, "You’re threatening !"
