“This is the receipt for the full repayment of the loan. Two hours ago, Mr. Geng fully repaid the loan that he had taken from Gu Bank.” Ye Yuwei placed the document on the table in front of Gu Juexi.
Gu Juexi lowered his head but did not speak a word.
Behind the scenes, PA Wen shook his head in frustration. The CEO had personally gone to talk to Geng Yisheng and he had promised to continue lending him more money in the future. That was why he returned the money so quickly.
It was a pity that the CEO would never say anything about it.
“So, how does this prove that the matter was related to her?” Gu Juexi asked in a manner that seemed like he was on Yu Sha’er’s side.
PA Wen smacked his forehead.
‘Of all the things he could have said, why this?’
It was not that the CEO did not know how to speak. It was just that whatever he chose to say would always infuriate the young mistress.
‘Even if it was to lead her to this subject matter, couldn’t he have said it in a better way?’
His CEO was hopeless when it came to this. What could he do? This was frustrating.
Ye Yuwei trembled a little as she put down the document, but she quickly regained her composure.
Yu Sha’er quickly seized the moment as soon as she saw an opportunity to attack. “It is really remarkable that Mrs. Gu was able to recover the money. Looks like the last few days that Mrs. Gu had spent accompanying Mr. Geng has finally paid off.”
As soon as Yu Sha’er had finished speaking, Ye Yuwei looked up and saw her laughing menacingly.
‘Accompany—’
The word was used in an insulting manner.
Creases appeared on the document that Gu Juexi was holding on to, but he kept his silence.
The audience was whispering among themselves, and on the stage, Yu Sha’er was glaring at Ye Yuwei provocatively.
Gu Juexi looked at Ye Yuwei who was standing right in front of him. “Ye Yuwei, I created this opportunity for you, but why are you being so stupid?” Gu Juexi said in a low voice that could only be heard by the both of them.
Ye Yuwei bowed her head and stared at Gu Juexi.
“If I were you, I would have made sure that Geng Yisheng would be attending the event today, instead of standing here, being humiliated by others.” Gu Juexi’s voice was still low, but this time he got up slowly and placed his hands on Ye Yuwei’s hands which were placed on the document. He whispered in her ear, “Ye Yuwei, revenge can never succeed with just hatred alone.”
If it was possible, he would not have planned for nine years, but still be afraid to take action.
Ye Yuwei’s hands were suppressed by Gu Juexi. She looked right into his eyes. Those eyes that were staring right at her.
“I will not continue to sit still and be laughed at. At least, I will no longer be so stupid to wish that someone would come to my aid and offer me a helping hand when I am at my lowest point in life,” Ye Yuwei said, word by word. She continued, “I will no longer hope that the person coming to save me would be m husband. The only loved one I have left in this world. That is, you.”
Gu Juexi listened to every hate-filled word that she had said. He watched as she stared at him with hatred in her eyes. He could feel the increasing strength from her hands beneath his palm.
Gu Juexi raised his brows and nodded with a smile. “Very determined, Ye Yuwei. Since you do not want to be Mrs. Gu, after today, I will set you free, like a butterfly.” His voice was low, but she did not understand what he meant.
Ye Yuwei stared at Gu Juexi as he sat back down on his chair. She furrowed her brows as she looked at the red mark he had left on the back of her hand.
“I can prove it,” Geng Yisheng’s voice suddenly sounded.
Yu Sha’er looked up in disbelief and almost fell because of her extremely high heels. She finally regained her balance when Sister Qing came to her side and supported her.
