Chapter 837: 837
Ye Yuwei rolled her eyes irritably and refused to talk to him . Gu Juexi chuckled .
After they had their breakfast, Gu Juexi hung the cleaning service sign on the doorknob and departed to meet Master Yao Lao with Ye Yuwei .
Master Yao Lao’s house had been destroyed after the incident . She now operated a small clinic at the villagers’ temporary residence . The clinic was crowded with people when Ye Yuwei and Gu Juexi arrived .
Their first stop was not to disturb Master Yao Lao’s treatment time, so they made a detour to visit the old Red Soldier .
The place where he lived now was also a temporary residence, and the place was quite decent .
The old soldier was playing chess with his friend . He looked quite excited .
When he saw them, he only lifted his hand to wave, then resumed playing until the game ended . He stood up using his cane and Ye Yuwei rushed to his side to help him .
“I figured it was about time for you guys to come,” the old man said with a chuckle . He led them back to the room he was currently living at .
Gu Juexi followed them into the room . The old man sat by the bed with the help of Ye Yuwei and looked at Gu Juexi . “Your wife is not mad at you, huh?”
Gu Juexi raised his eyebrows and remained silent . Ye Yuwei turned around to look at him, wondering wondered what that was about .
After the old man sat comfortably by the bed, he took his glass from the bedside table and drank water from it .

Ye Yuwei glanced at Gu Juexi again . He still remained silent and waited for the old man to finish drinking .
“What is your business this time? Speak . ” The old man put down his glass and gestured for them to sit .
Ye Yuwei behaved like Gu Juexi’s shadow, sitting only after Gu Juexi sat . She extended her greetings and asked about his health and the topic ended abruptly as she could think of nothing else to say .
So awkward .
“Realistically speaking, I am alive thanks to you . You, young man, are a genius,” the old man said as he looked at Gu Juexi .

“Sir, I’ll get straight to the point regarding the reason I’m here today . You know what I’m going to ask,” Gu Juexi said . He rested his hand on the table, gentle drumming his fingers against the wood .
Ye Yuwei thought again that she might be on a different channel as she was clueless .
Maybe it was just like he had said, she’d just have to wait for his win .
The old man laughed again and scanned the couple sitting across him .
“It was such a long time ago, and it’s just some stale gossip . If you ask me, I’d say there’s nothing to talk about,” the old man said . He lifted his glass again but didn’t drink from it .

“Sir, do you know my father?” Ye Yuwei asked cautiously .
The old man lifted his head to look at Ye Yuwei . He didn’t take a good look at her last time due to the heavy rain, but now he could see her as clearly .
“Not really,” the old man said while shaking his glass, “Girl, get me some water from the room next door, please . ”
Ye Yuwei paused for a second . She collected the glass from the old man after Gu Jue nodded and walked out of the room .
The old man looked at Gu Juexi after Ye Yuwei had disappeared from the room . “See, isn’t this nice?”
“Sir, was the person who came to see you Ye Shu?” Gu Juexi cut to the chase and asked .
“No . ” The old man fixed his gaze on Gu Juexi, his hand still on the table . “It’s been a few decades since I last saw Ye Shu . That time, their whole family was making a living here . There’s nothing much to say, honestly . ”
