The darkroom was in pin-drop silence. Ye Yuwei really thought that her past would be forgotten if it were not for Gu Juexi who was still there. But Gu Juexi obviously did not care to let her have her dignity.
Someone then knocked on Ye Yuwei’s door. So she quickly forced her tears back and opened the door, only to see Bai Yuyan again standing outside of her room smiling.
‘She is still her?’ That was Ye Yuwei’s first thought when she saw Bai Yuyan.
Bai Yuyan saw Ye Yuwei’s eyes that were red from crying but pretended not to see. “Yuwei, I redid my loan application. Could you take a look at it again for me? I really need this money to start the business,” said Bai Yuyan as if Ye Yuwei wronged her by rejecting her first application.
Before Ye Yuwei could say anything, the old mistress who followed Bai Yuyan upstairs heard Bai Yuyan and said, “That is her job! There is no need to beg her.” To the old mistress, Ye Yuwei was just an employee of their pany.
Gu Juexi who hid his emotions came out from the darkroom and heard what the old mistress had said.
Ye Yuwei pursed her lips and looked at the old mistress. “I have tendered my resignation. I am sorry that I won’t be able to help much, but you can send your application to Manager Ouyang, she should be able to help,” said Ye Yuwei.
“You resigned?” Not believing that Ye Yuwei actually quit from a good job like that, Bai Yuyan asked. “Why did you suddenly resign? Is it because you are pregnant?”
Ye Yuwei heard what Bai Yuyan asked and saw the old mistress’s face turning pale.
Gu Juexi went to Ye Yuwei’s side. “Don’t try to pull strings in my bank. You don’t need this money anyway since Madame Bai is loaded,” said Gu Juexi as he pulled Ye Yuwei close to him.
Madame Bai?
Looking at the back of Gu Juexi, Ye Yuwei knew that she had heard this name before—she was the woman that picked Bai Yuyan up from the police station back then.
What Gu Juexi said made sense. The Bai family was rich enough to support Bai Yuyan, so why did Bai Yuyan apply for the loan?
“Yuyan wanted to depend on herself. Not like someone who always pull strings to get what she wants.” The old mistress said sarcastically, obviously referring to how Ye Yuwei got her job as the manager of Gu Bank.
Being able to pick up the sarcasm, Ye Yuwei frowned. Gu Juexi frowned too and closed the door with Ye Yuwei inside the room.
“Grandma, please stop doing what you are doing now. Do you think what you are doing now is appropriate as an elder?” asked Gu Juexi disappointedly.
“What did you say?” The old mistress got upset after hearing what her grandson said.
“You know what I said. If you have to continue with what you are doing now, Ye Yuwei and I will move out from here,” said Gu Juexi who then went back to his room without looking at the old mistress.
“Pack your stuff,” said Gu Juexi after he entered the room.
With the door closed, Ye Yuwei did not hear their argument earlier. So when Gu Juexi told her to pack her stuff, she happily thought that Gu Juexi has finally decided to let her go.
Gu Juexi managed to catch the look on her face and got angry. He went against his grandmother’s will for her, and she could not wait to leave him?
How infuriating!
Very infuriating!
