"Bringing this up in front of me, isn’t it because you want me to take action against you? And what does the matter between Yu and me have to do with you?"
He always believed that it was a matter between the two of them, and didn’t need anyone else to interfere. Besides, Ji Yu had no choice in this matter, so how could she be blamed for it?
"Yes, yes, it’s a matter between the two of you, then why don’t you let me leave first?"
In his heart, he felt that this matter was quite unpleasant.
He didn’t understand why Gu Qixiao made such a crazy decision.
"So, did you come here today just to mock me?"
"Of course not. I’m just really curious about how you’ve become after a woman left you—so haggard, when you weren’t before." He found it very incomprehensible.
Seeing his rival in love become so devalued made him feel quite uncomfortable. Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by novel⁂fire.net
Gu Qixiao certainly knew what he used to be like, but now he had changed his mind, and the matters of the heart were incredibly important to him.
"The matter between Yu and me doesn’t need your interference, and you don’t even know what’s going on between us, so what right do you have to judge us?"
Ji Yu made this decision solely for the sake of her mother.
"You can leave now." He never intended to keep him around in the first place.
If he hadn’t deliberately come to make trouble today, they probably wouldn’t have had a chance to meet during this period.
He also knew that Ji Yu was probably waiting for him.
Sure enough, he saw Ji Yu at the hospital.
When Ji Yu saw him, she felt a bit awkward and at a loss since their relationship was indeed quite strange at the moment.
"Gu Qixiao, don’t you think our relationship is awkward?"
"As long as you haven’t fallen for someone else, it makes no difference to me. Besides, we’ve already reached the point of discussing marriage. Do you think I wouldn’t understand you?" Gu Qixiao was very firm about this.
Nothing could tear them apart unless one of them stopped loving the other.
Initially, Ji Yu thought that Gu Qixiao wasn’t being so love-struck this time. But on closer inspection, he seemed even more infatuated than before.
"Let’s not talk about that for now. I want to know how you’ve been doing recently. Has that person come to trouble you again? If he’s causing you trouble, you can tell me in advance. I’ll have someone help you handle it first."
Ji Yu was still concerned about Shi Chengxin’s matter and understood that he might be someone difficult to deal with.
"He hasn’t done much, just mocked me for becoming so haggard after losing a woman."
He was also quite helpless about this, not knowing why the other person would say such a thing.
Ji Yu suddenly felt a little guilty, realizing that he had been mocked to this extent because of her.
"Gu Qixiao, do you regret it? If you don’t want to wait for me, you don’t have to."
It would be normal for him to fall for someone else at this time. After all, matters of the heart don’t require so much patience, and he was going through such a tough time. It might be better for him to start anew with someone else.
"Yu, if you say that again, I’ll get angry. I’ve already told you before that I want to marry you. That was never false."
He wouldn’t make promises lightly, but once he did, he’d make sure to keep them. Now that he’s already accepted her in his heart, there’s no way he would give up.
"Yu, if you no longer have feelings for me, just tell me. I’ll stay away from you then, and I definitely won’t cling to you, but I will always stand by you."
No matter what happens, he would always be there by Ji Yu’s side.
Ji Yu felt pressured at this moment, too, because she wasn’t sure if she could give him the same response. Moreover, their contact seemed less frequent than before.
"Gu Qixiao, I’ve really appreciated you during this time. Without you, I wouldn’t know what to do." But sometimes, these things seemed too unfair, as if it was consuming his energy.
"Yu, are you trying to give me a ’nice guy card’? If you are, I absolutely won’t accept it. To me, this is something I’m willing to do of my own accord."
If it wasn’t voluntary, who would wait for so long?
Ji Yu had nothing to say, understanding his feelings now, maybe because he simply couldn’t let go, hence his persistence.
However, Ji Yu had already made up her mind that if they couldn’t be together in the end, she wouldn’t have any link with Xia Chuanhe anymore.
Just then, Feng Qinqin walked in as well, and seeing their situation, she understood what was going on.
"You two have a good chat; I’ll go check on Auntie first." Gu Qixiao also understood that they probably had things to talk about, so he naturally went to the ward to check on Madam Ji.
Feng Qinqin was very pleased with his behavior but hesitated upon thinking about the current situation.
"Yuyu, your situation with him now is really tangled and confusing, but I think he still has feelings for you. The two of you might indeed have a beautiful future together."
Who would’ve thought that someone like him would be such a romantic? And what he did was indeed touching.
"I always feel like I owe him. This decision this time distanced us somewhat. I wanted to wait until the matter was resolved to explain it clearly to him, yet he never seemed to doubt me."
That’s why she felt even more helpless at heart.
"Gu Qixiao has always trusted you deeply and had long accepted you in his heart, so there’s no need to be too anxious about this."
Once he had accepted someone, there was no chance of regret.
"When you first got together, I really didn’t see him being so love-struck, but since he’s so good to you, I hope you two can end up together."
As for Xia Chuanhe, it’s fair to say that no one really liked him, although he didn’t know it. Besides, they had to rely on him to treat Madam Ji, so they had to endure everything for now.
"Don’t let someone slip away."
