Ye Yuwei silently listened.

“My original plan with Lao Bao was to fake my retirement from the military, to grow Cheng Jie and then ruin him completely. But I overestimated my own ability to handle it.” Gu Juexi’s eyes remained closed as he spoke.

Ye Yuwei really did not expect Gu Juexi to say those things to her. It was as if he was thoroughly explaining his past.

“All those years, all I had in my mind was revenge. I admit that I was a little unhappy with you seeing how much my mom doted on you, but I never once thought of using you through marriage. Even for Ye Shu’s case, it was only when Cheng Jie arrived at B City that he was slowly involved somehow,” Gu Juexi continued. His voice slowly became softer until it completely disappeared.

When Ye Yuwei looked down, Gu Juexi had already fallen asleep. He had not slept for two days straight, and the incident today had totally burned him out.

Ye Xicheng crawled onto the bed and saw the wound on Gu Juexi’s back. His brows knitted.

“How did that happen?”

“Saving an old Red Army soldier.”

Ye Yuwei reached out and stroked her son’s head.

“He’s a remarkable soldier, that is a fact.”

If it were not for him being deeply hurt by the place that he loved, Ye Yuwei knew that he would not have left. He also would not choose to reject the offer every time the Old Chief came to find him.

“Then why did he stop being a soldier?” Ye Xicheng sat beside Gu Juexi and bent his tiny body to blow softly on Gu Juexi’s wound.

Ye Yuwei watched her son’s actions. No matter how much the little one went against Gu Juexi, he actually truly admired him.

“There are times when we can’t do what we want to do. The more you care about something, the more hurt you’ll get. Perhaps that place had wounded him too much,” Ye Yuwei told him softly. She was unsure whether she was saying it to her son or to herself.

For someone like him with so much pride, he had blamed himself for failing that mission. The others did not understand him and had tried to hurt him behind his back. How could someone in their early twenties bear that sort of violence?

If not for that place that badly wounded him like stripping off his skin, he would never have chosen to leave it.

If he did not love it, he would not have chosen to climb the mountain to save others. It was something that had nothing to do with him and he knew his right hand was already useless.

Even if he stripped off his military uniform, he was still a soldier.

Ye Xicheng clenched his fists once more. His big round eyes held a firmness way beyond his age.

Ye Yuwei applied medication onto Gu Juexi, then reached for the blanket and covered him.

Gu Juexi was, after all, a person who had been bullied since he was a child. He never once told anyone, because he had hidden those thoughts deep inside him.

His father’s indifference, his comrades’ misunderstanding. Even after leaving his family, he was still being used by others in their own fight for the family inheritance.

All these were things that she did not know before.

She always told herself that she loved Gu Juexi very much, but she didn’t actually know his past.

Gu Juexi was in a deep sleep. It was probably the only time he slept well because his sleep lasted long past midnight.

When Gu Juexi woke up, there was only a table lamp switched on by the bedside table. Ye Yuwei was sleeping on the other bed with the two kids. He moved his body and instantly felt it ache.

Gu Juexi took a deep breath, endured his pain for a while then tried to get up but when his gaze landed on Ye Yuwei, he stopped.
