If Gu Juexi did not come back, Ye Yuwei would grit her teeth and endure every single hardship that came her way no matter what. After all, that was how she lived her life in the past.
However, a person would only need to experience being reliant on someone else once. Once they had someone to rely on, what followed would be grievance—overwhelming grievance, or even, unreasonable grievance.
That was exactly Ye Yuwei's current state of mind, and Gu Juexi provided her the reliance that made her vulnerable.
Silence engulfed the entire room. No one spoke. There were only the sounds of the trio's shallow breaths. Perhaps, since Gu Juexi had not had a good rest for a long time now, he was slowly falling asleep as he stared at Ye Yuwei.
In the dead of night, Ye Yuwei opened her eyes, fully awake, and looked at the man right in front of her.
She dared to throw a tantrum at him so heedlessly only because she knew she was loved.
