"Xiao, you two should stop struggling. You will never have any outcome, and there’s a child in her belly. Imagine what would happen if this were to occur?"
When she spoke of this, she smiled gleefully, looking like a psychopath.
Gu Qixiao was already very displeased with her, and now, seeing her expression, coupled with her description, it was impossible for him to remain calm.
He viciously gripped her neck, and his eyes turned fierce.
"Song Xuan, you better pray that Yu has no issues. Otherwise, whatever Yu goes through, I’ll make sure you experience it all. And Yu will be safe, while you will never return alive."
His biggest regret was probably not having stopped this from happening sooner.
"Xiao..." Song Xuan was gasping for air, feeling death so close for the first time, at the hands of the person she had always longed for.
She suddenly realized that some people show love or the lack thereof so clearly, and in this situation, she felt utterly helpless.
"I’m giving you one last chance to tell me where Yu is. If you do, you can live. If you don’t, don’t blame me for being ruthless."
Initially, Gu Qixiao hadn’t planned to kill, but her attitude infuriated him beyond measure.
"If I don’t tell you, what could you possibly do to me? Even if you find out, all you’ll see is a dead Ji Yu."
A trace of a smile appeared on her pained face, as if mocking them.
"Xiao, did you really think I wouldn’t succeed in anything? This is my greatest success, and you’ll never see her."
The grip on her neck kept tightening, showing just how angry Gu Qixiao was, leading to such actions.
But in the end, he let go because he knew she was the only link to finding out more. If she died here, the trail would go cold.
"Xiao, so you still can’t bring yourself to kill me." She secretly hoped that Gu Qixiao would show her more affection, believing they could still be together.
"I’m sparing your life today only to extract information. If you don’t give it to me, you’ll never leave this room in your lifetime."
He had no feelings left for her, and what she said only reinforced his indifference.
Watching him leave, Song Xuan realized some people are truly cold and heartless.
She collapsed to the ground, crying desperately, unable to retrieve the person who had left her.
She didn’t understand how things reached this point. They seemed perfect for each other, yet she was the one kicked aside.
"Ji Yu, you’ll die a miserable death." She cursed venomously.
In her heart, this affair could not simply end here.
Having finally gotten such an opportunity, she wasn’t going to let the opponent escape so easily.
Meanwhile, with Gu Qixiao now possessing her phone, he wasn’t going to idly wait by, so he sought out Hong, asking if clues could be extracted from the phone.
"I’ll do my best to find their location from this phone, but the chances are slim since most of their communication is through virtual numbers."
After all, these people are still very mysterious.
Their biggest concern now was Ji Yu’s situation. If something were to happen, it would be extremely dangerous.
In reality, Ji Yu’s condition wasn’t as dire as they imagined. She was eating and sleeping well, only finding these people somewhat absurd. Thɪs chapter is updated by Nov3lFɪre.ɴet
"I don’t quite understand your intentions. If you want to release me, do it pronto. If not, then just kill me."
Neither dared to do either. If they released her, they’d face retribution, afraid of being avenged upon if they killed her.
"Doctor Ji, please do not make things difficult for us. We know this is a challenging situation, but we’ve come up with the best solution. If someone comes to rescue you, we won’t interfere."
But, since no one has come, they could only wait here, feeling anxious about what might come next.
Ji Yu felt exasperated by their words but understood their timidity.
Yet, when they killed, they didn’t even blink, leaving her baffled about their true nature.
Recently, the man who inquired came once again.
"Doctor Ji, my sister desperately needs your help. If you get the chance, could you perform surgery on her? I can help you escape."
Without any other options, he had no choice but to make such an offer, hoping Ji Yu would agree.
"Of course, I agree. But I want to leave here. I’ve grown tired of this place, and staying here longer just worsens my mood. I can’t operate ."
Confident and open about her desire to leave, Ji Yu didn’t hide it, knowing it wasn’t shameful and staying would only lead to more heartbreak.
"I understand your feelings. However, I can’t make this decision alone. I need to discuss it with my brothers who know my sister’s condition."
He seemed earnest, and Ji Yu had no suspicion.
To leave, Ji Yu knew she had to build good relations with them, so such actions were necessary.
"When you discuss it, make sure your brothers carefully consider. This isn’t a trivial matter, and it could create rifts among you."
It would be best to persuade them all to agree, allowing her to leave smoothly.
Ji Yu had already calculated everything.
