Ji Yu stood off to the side, watching them sticking so close together. She couldn’t quite understand why Song Xuan had made such a choice.
Couldn’t she just stay here to study?
"So have you made up your minds yet? My ti is precious, and I don’t want to waste it on aningless things."
"Of course, sorry to trouble you, Yu." Gu Qixiao was truly clueless about certain things.
For instance, he hadn’t noticed that Ji Yu was upset.
Assistant Li took one look at the scene and instantly understood why Gu Qixiao didn’t have a significant other. This was entirely his own doing, wasn’t it?
Looking at the situation before his eyes, it would be stranger if he actually managed to have a girlfriend.
Ji Yu perford a quick examination and said, "It seems to be an allergic reaction. You should know what you’re allergic to. Just apply so ointnt, and avoid the allergen in the future."
She instructed Tian to fetch a box of ointnt. "Can I leave now?"
She really didn’t feel like staying to treat them anymore. And since they were already together, why bother putting on an act?
Gu Qixiao couldn’t grasp why Ji Yu was angry. He wanted to step forward and explain, but Song Xuan kept crying and clinging onto him, making it impossible for him to get away.
Assistant Li hastily escorted Ji Yu out, not forgetting to speak up for Gu Qixiao before leaving. "Miss Ji, please don’t get the wrong idea. Our President Gu has absolutely no other intentions—it’s just that Song Xuan refuses to let go of him."
"Is that so?" Ji Yu was already accustod to situations like these. She had been ntally prepared for this scenario long ago, so she didn’t feel particularly hurt anymore.
"Not rejecting her is the real problem. He’s a grown man—doesn’t he have enough strength for sothing like this? Honestly, he’s the one mishandling the situation; don’t pin it on for not understanding their relationship."
She wasn’t going to take the bla for this.
Now that everything was laid bare, there was no reason for her to feel guilty.
Assistant Li was left speechless, unsure of what to say to defend Gu Qixiao.
He could only stand by helplessly, watching Ji Yu walk away.
Back at the dormitory, Song Xuan was still crying and insisted on going back with Gu Qixiao.
To Gu Qixiao, her crying sounded like torture, an unbearable noise drilling into his ears.
Assistant Li observed the situation and was at a loss for words. "President Gu, it seems Miss Ji wasn’t in a good mood when she left earlier. Are you sure you’re not going to check on her?"
After all, a pursuer should prioritize the feelings of the one they’re pursuing.
As expected, the mont Gu Qixiao heard that Ji Yu was upset, he imdiately shook off Song Xuan.
"Take care of your health properly. You don’t need to worry about anything else; your professor will guide you well. I have other matters to attend to—I won’t waste ti fooling around here anymore."
Song Xuan stared blankly at Gu Qixiao’s retreating figure, unable to believe that this was what "fooling around" ant in his mind.
This "fooling around" left her trembling uncontrollably. "Xiao, I just wanted to go ho. Why do you have to treat like this?"
All she wanted was to return to the life they had before. But why did everything seem to change the mont Ji Yu showed up?
It must have been Ji Yu’s fault that things between them had turned out this way.
She would have to deal with Ji Yu; otherwise, she would surely remain trapped here.
anwhile, Gu Qixiao had caught up with Ji Yu.
Even Tian had sothing to say about Gu Qixiao’s behavior. "President Gu, if you want to pay dical expenses, you can just transfer it anyti. As for anything else, you’d best not bother thinking about it."
At least in Tian’s eyes, Gu Qixiao’s actions today were losing him serious points.
Gu Qixiao rubbed his temples helplessly, still unable to figure out why Ji Yu was so mad. "I really didn’t an anything else. Could you give so ti to explain things to Yu properly?"
"President Gu, it’s not just Sister Yu—even I can’t watch this anymore. You dragged Sister Yu in a rush to see your little lover—doesn’t that feel like a direct stab to her heart?"
Shouldn’t that have been clear from the start?
"Let’s not forget that Sister Yu is pregnant right now. You’re making her run all over the place for you—do you really think that’s okay?"
He stared at Gu Qixiao, waiting for an explanation.
Gu Qixiao froze for a mont, clearly caught off guard. He’d been focused solely on Song Xuan’s potential return ho and had completely neglected this issue.
"This is indeed my fault. But I was just trying my best to prevent Song Xuan from going ho."
He knew Ji Yu wouldn’t like this kind of situation, so he wanted to stop it at the source. But instead, his approach seed to make Ji Yu even more frustrated.
"Regardless, things are what they are now. President Gu, you should stop clinging to this—Sister Yu doesn’t like sches like these."
Such tactics had no value at all.
Tian said nothing more, simply hoping that Gu Qixiao would reflect on himself.
Gu Qixiao realized he couldn’t forcibly intervene anymore. He could only sit in a corner and text Ji Yu.
[Yu, I really didn’t handle this right, but I truly don’t an anything else. Please don’t misunderstand .]
He knew Ji Yu cared about this situation, and the ss he’d created was frustrating even to himself.
But more than anything, he wanted to reconcile with Ji Yu, so he wouldn’t have to worry so much anymore.
[I’m not angry, so there’s no need for an apology. I’m going to be busy for a while; you don’t need to waste ti on every day.]
Everyone should have their own priorities.
Through this ordeal, Ji Yu had co to understand one thing: she had developed feelings for Gu Qixiao. If she wanted to suppress these emotions, the only solution was to avoid him.
"Sister Yu, don’t soften up. Gu Qixiao is definitely doing this on purpose."
"I won’t." Ji Yu looked at the people standing up for her, and couldn’t help but be amused.
Sotis when you’re in the thick of things, you lose clarity. Others see the situation plainly, while Gu Qixiao seems to perceive it in a completely different light.
"Sister Yu, if you’re feeling upset, why don’t we go out together for a change? There’s a team-building event coming up—we’ve been planning it for a while now. Seeing you unhappy, I thought it might be good for you to join us."
"Forget it. If I go, you all won’t have any fun. I’ll spend a few days at ho instead—just let know after you’re done enjoying yourselves."
There’s no need to rush certain things. She was already starting to adjust her mood, so why vent her dissatisfaction in such a way?
