Gu Juexi narrowed his eyes as he looked down at the woman in his arms who might not even remember who she was. He cursed in his heart and then stopped a taxi in the intersection before getting into the taxi with her.

Initially, Gu Juexi wanted to say that his destination was Gu Mansion, but after looking at the person in his arms, he decided to give the taxi driver the address to his apartment instead.

Ye Yuwei was very quiet and she slept peacefully as she laid in Gu Juexi’s arms. She did not cry or cause any trouble.

She was just like a porcelain doll.

However, when she woke up, she was so loud and annoying that it made him feel like smacking her.

“Girls should not drink so much alcohol.” The taxi driver who had looked into the rearview mirror suddenly said as a reminder to Gu Juexi.

Gu Juexi lowered his head and looked down at Ye Yuwei.

“Yes, my wife ran away with someone else after she drank—”

Gu Juexi looked up at the driver and he began to frown. He must really stop her and ban her from drinking alcohol in the future.

Maybe he should just add Xiao Yaojing into his blacklist.

When they arrived at the apartment, Gu Juexi paid the taxi driver and then carried Ye Yuwei upstairs.

He often dropped by his apartment and therefore, it was already clean and tidy when they arrived.

When they arrived at the door of his apartment, Gu Juexi could see that Ye Yuwei was about to vomit. He hurriedly opened the door and carried her to the bathroom. After putting her down, Ye Yuwei began holding onto the toilet seat and started vomiting.

This was the first time that Gu Juexi had seen Ye Yuwei drunk.

Ye Yuwei sat down on the bathroom floor after she had vomited.

Gu Juexi brought her a gla.s.s of water and waited for her to spit and rinse her mouth before he put the cup to her lips. “I know this is difficult, but please try to drink as much water as you can. If you can’t drink, then why did you drink so much and get drunk?”

Ye Yuwei leaned against the toilet seat.

After vomiting, she seemed a little more sober.

“When Xicheng and Xixi were about one year old, I went out with Qian Yikun to meet a business client. That man kept forcing me to drink, and even though Qian Yikun tried to stop him, he could not stop him,” Ye Yuwei suddenly said with a bleak voice. “He refused to let us leave and he also hurt Qian Yikun. I was so scared at that time, but there was no one there who could help me. Therefore, I finished a whole bottle of wine by myself and when I was done with the bottle, I took the wine bottle and hit that man.” Ye Yuwei was still leaning against the toilet seat. It looked like she was laughing but Gu Juexi could see the streak of tears that were flowing down her cheeks, and falling onto her ear.

Gu Juexi held the cup of water in his hand tightly and listened to her speak without saying anything.

“That man kept his promise later and eventually signed the contract and he finally let me and Qian Yikun leave,” Ye Yuwei said as she forcefully smiled. “I remained calm all the way because I did not dare to let myself go. I did not dare to fall down. It was only after I got home that I started vomiting like this. I felt as though I was all alone in this world and that I had no one that I could depend on. I felt as though the whole world had abandoned me. It was only until I saw Xicheng standing at the bathroom door. At that time, he could barely stand and therefore, he was holding onto the bathroom door to support himself, and he was helplessly calling out to me.” Ye Yuwei spoke as her tears fell onto her left ear and dripped into the toilet bowl, causing a small little splash.

Gu Juexi maintained his posture. He wanted to reach out and wiped the tears off her face but he did not have the courage to do so.

“From that moment, I knew that nothing can happen to me. I must be strong because even though I have nothing, all my children have is me.” Ye Yuwei was still smiling as she looked at Gu Juexi. “For the past few years, I have been out drinking to meet with clients for more than ten times, but not once have I gotten drunk outside again because I was afraid. When I had bleeding in my stomach, I went to the hospital all by myself because I had no one else who could help me. I had no one that I could talk to.”

Ye Yuwei said as she slowly used the toilet seat to support her body as she stood up. When Gu Juexi reached out to help her, she quickly pushed his hand away.
