"It seems like your attitude towards each patient is a bit different."
At first, he thought Ji Yu was very irritable, but now it seemed not to be the case.
Ji Yu couldn’t help but roll her eyes, "I only like cooperating with my patients. I don’t really owe you anything, so why speak in that tone?"
To be honest, Ji Yu was particularly repelled by patients like Song Xuan.
Almost every time she faced Song Xuan, she couldn’t help but lose her temper.
"I’ve always had this attitude, it’s just that Song Xuan is particularly excessive."
Speaking of this matter, Ji Yu couldn’t help but feel some sympathy for Gu Qixiao, "You’ll still have to interact with him for some time later, and you might be treated the same way. I can only say that you sure have patience."
When she said this, Gu Qixiao was also a bit helpless, but he knew that Song Xuan had a bad temper, which was somewhat related to him.
"Song Xuan just behaves this way because no one disciplines her. I’m really guilty about her brother’s issue."
Gu Qixiao had always kept the past issue in his heart.
Seeing Gu Qixiao’s face showing a guilty expression, Ji Yu understood well, "A loss of life would make anyone feel guilty, but one should distinguish right from wrong. Some things indeed need to be repaid, but there should be a limit."
She felt deeply about this matter.
"Considering how much you’ve helped the orphanage recently, I’ll be straight with you. Sometimes, your guilt might only drive another person’s overexploitation."
She sighed while eating hotpot, realizing that Gu Qixiao’s temper was actually quite good.
At least for now, he seemed to be a good person.
"You really are a good person, but one shouldn’t be too soft-hearted."
This kind of mindset would cause problems sooner or later.
Looking at Ji Yu, he didn’t know what to make of it.
But before they could continue talking, Feng Qinqin walked up to Ji Yu with a complicated expression.
"Yuyu, what’s going on here?" Her tone was a bit conflicted, also wanting to know the relationship between Gu Qixiao and Ji Yu.
Ji Yu’s hand with the chopsticks trembled, not expecting to run into Feng Qinqin here.
"Qinqin, what are you doing here?" She actually wanted to know what was going on.
But having a meal with Gu Qixiao shouldn’t be an issue.
She tried to appear as composed as possible, instead wondering why Feng Qinqin was here.
"Yuyu, shouldn’t you check your chat history before asking me this question?"
Ji Yu suddenly recalled today’s chat history with Feng Qinqin.
If she remembered correctly, Feng Qinqin did say she was coming here to check in, but she said she had something to do and refused directly.
Now caught in the act, it couldn’t be more awkward.
Ji Yu looked at Feng Qinqin apologetically, "This might be a misunderstanding."
She actually didn’t expect Feng Qinqin to be here, and hadn’t thought about such a situation at all.
Feng Qinqin sighed, "Forget it, you two keep eating. I’m just next door, let me know if you need anything."
She looked at Gu Qixiao warily, as if he were some kind of menace.
Gu Qixiao was a bit surprised, but everything seemed a bit off.
"You know Feng Qinqin?"
He wasn’t that familiar with Feng Qinqin but was aware of their collaboration.
Ji Yu didn’t know how to explain, "She’s my best friend."
In any case, Gu Qixiao didn’t know about past events.
She was too lazy to explain much; if Gu Qixiao figured it out himself, he’d know the truth. If not, then so be it for now.
Apparently, Gu Qixiao wasn’t thinking along those lines.
"Why does she look at me as if I’m going to do something to you?"
He should have appeared gentlemanly from the start.
"Maybe it’s because of the past collaboration; Qinqin mentioned it before."
Speaking of the collaboration, Gu Qixiao admitted his mistake and felt sorry for the Feng family.
"What I did back then was indeed wrong." He was ready to apologize to Feng Qinqin.
As Feng Qinqin was also alone, they invited her to join their table.
Feng Qinqin considered it and did not refuse, sitting next to Ji Yu, seemingly wanting to see what Gu Qixiao was up to.
"President Gu, you wouldn’t have any other intentions asking our Yuyu out for dinner, would you?" Thıs text ıs hosted at nοvelfire.net
She was very blunt, showing disdain for Gu Qixiao.
"I’m pursuing Doctor Ji." When he said this, he couldn’t help glancing at Ji Yu.
It was clear from his eyes that he really had feelings.
But Feng Qinqin almost laughed out loud at his words, wondering what was wrong with him. He didn’t cherish it when married, why does he want to get together now?
"President Gu, some things, once missed, can’t be returned. No matter how well you perform now, you can’t change reality."
She looked at Gu Qixiao with disdain, "Since President Gu wasn’t prepared before, you’ve already missed the opportunity."
Gu Qixiao thought Feng Qinqin was talking about their unpleasant past and wanted to clarify.
"I should explain this. I know Yu might have some misunderstandings about me, but I never intended to do anything to her back then."
Instantly, Feng Qinqin understood. He still didn’t realize he was the ex-husband? Gu Qixiao’s reaction was a bit slow.
She had no interest in teasing Gu Qixiao further, "Yuyu, you should keep your distance from such people; who knows what other schemes they have."
She was somewhat worried about Ji Yu.
It felt like Ji Yu had changed her mind.
Ji Yu paused, "I know."
Her attitude towards Gu Qixiao was always like that; she just thought he seemed like a good person now.
Now it was Gu Qixiao’s turn to be anxious, "I really didn’t have such thoughts before; I didn’t intend to harm you. I hope you can forgive me."
His gaze at Ji Yu was eager, as if he couldn’t rest until the matter was resolved.
What else could it be about?
Gu Qixiao was momentarily confused.
Knowing Feng Qinqin was Ji Yu’s friend, he simply apologized to her.
"What happened with the collaboration was indeed my fault. I hope Lady Feng won’t mind."
Little did he know, when he went to apologize back then, he wasn’t this sincere.
Feng Qinqin didn’t know what Gu Qixiao was thinking.
It’s hard to guess his sincerity or pretense.
