Chapter 977: I Can’t Remember

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

This man was driving Ye Yuwei crazy.

When did he become so shameless?

Ye Yuwei went downstairs and found Xixi and Ye Xicheng playing on the carpet in the living room. Ye Yuwei realized that her two kids barely needed her since they came back to Gu Mansion. There were servants at home and Ye Xicheng was all Xixi needed. In fact, she seemed to need him even more than she needed Ye Yuwei.

Gu Juexi pulled out a stool for Ye Yuwei then watched as Auntie Qian served her dinner. “This is a good time to talk to you about Ye Xicheng going to school.”

“What do you mean? What about Xixi?” Ye Yuwei picked up her chopsticks and frowned at Gu Juexi.

“Xixi’s health is not so good, so maybe we can try homeschooling her?” Gu Juexi suggested.

Xixi heard Gu Juexi and quickly stood up to run to him. Before she could reach Gu Juexi’s side, Gu Juexi had gotten up from his chair and picked her up.

“What did we say about running?” Gu Juexi carried his daughter in his arms and stroked her hair.

“I want to follow Brother! I want to follow Brother, Daddy.” Xixi stuck her arms out in protest. She was a good little sister who followed her brother everywhere.

“I can take care of Xixi,” Ye Xicheng humphed, obviously disagreeing with Gu Juexi’s suggestion too.

Gu Juexi frowned when Ye Yuwei shrugged. She didn’t agree with homeschooling because a child like Xixi needed interaction with other kids too.

“Let’s discuss this further when we get back from the US,” said Ye Yuwei finally, “the intake is in September anyway. We still have time.”

“Xixi is not a bird that you can keep in a cage. Why would you want to make her stay at home?” Ye Xicheng looked at his father and asked unhappily.

Gu Juexi didn’t know what to say.

Fine. Even his son spoke disrespectfully to him now.

The Gu Mansion in the US was barely maintained and there were only a few servants left that were cleaning when Gu Tianmu got there.

“You are back, Master,” said the butler respectfully.

Gu Tianmu squinted at the empty hall.

[“Daddy! Daddy is back, daddy is back!”]

The image of a little boy flashed in front of him then quickly disappeared.

Beside the sofa in the hall, a little boy was playing with his paper plane. Slowly, the memory faded away.

“When was the last time the young master came here?” asked Gu Tianmu suddenly.

Not understanding the reason behind the question, the butler’s mind went blank for a second before he answered, “Around eight years back, after he got married to the young mistress. Young master didn’t come back again after that.”

The butler sighed as he thought about the estranged family.

“Where is the old mistress?” Gu Tianmu clenched his hands tightly, as if he hadn’t asked about his son at all.

“The old mistress was discharged from the hospital the day before and is now resting upstairs,” replied the butler. Gu Tianmu halfway up the stairs before the butler could finish speaking.

Gu Tianmu pushed the old mistress’ door open. The old mistress was looking at pictures of when Gu Tianmu and Gu Juexi were young.

Gu Tianmu closed the door behind him and walked to his mother’s bed.

This old woman was his mother.

“You are back?” She asked. “Why isn’t Gu Juexi back? I miss my grandson.”

Gu Tianmu sat on the side of the bed and looked at his mother who looked troubled. “Wen Jie never eloped. That man that she left with was her brother. Am I right, Mother?”

The old mistress finally looked at her son.

“How long ago was that? I can’t remember.” The old mistress chuckled.
