She wasn’t comfortable with Ji Yu continuing to live here.
"I understand. This matter doesn’t need your interference." His tone wasn’t threatening, but he clearly found them obstructive.
He could use other ans to completely resolve the situation.
But Feng Qinqin still harbored doubts about him. Even though it seed like the two of them had been together recently, she hadn’t forgotten the things Gu Qixiao had done before.
"You may not trust , but I’ve never hidden my feelings for Ji Yu." He had said before that he would never give up on Ji Yu.
"You..."
"I deliver on what I say." Seeing Gu Qixiao’s expression, Feng Qinqin suddenly found herself at a loss for words. She really shouldn’t have doubted their relationship.
At least for now, their compatibility seed undeniable.
Gu Qixiao didn’t bother to intervene further in her affairs but instructed Ji Yuanzhou to take care of her.
Otherwise, when Ji Yu returned and found out that sothing had happened to Feng Qinqin, she likely wouldn’t be able to rest easy.
He returned to his residence, reflecting on everything that had happened recently, unable to calm his troubled thoughts.
"President Gu, about tomorrow’s eting..."
"Schedule it on ti. Don’t ntion anything about what’s been going on recently." He wouldn’t forget the need to handle company matters, but Ji Yu’s safety was a priority.
"According to your arrangents, Miss Ji will be fine. However, when we received the news today, Miss Song seed to have overheard sothing."
He was aware of Song Xuan’s feelings for Gu Qixiao and found it necessary to report this matter thoroughly.
Gu Qixiao frowned, clearly displeased. "What happened?"
"Miss Song wanted to find you at the ti and ended up overhearing the news." He had noticed sothing was amiss back then, but due to other pressing matters, he hadn’t had the chance to report it.
"Make sure she behaves herself. Have soone follow her." This matter couldn’t be exposed to others.
Assistant Li wasn’t surprised and responded, "I’ve already arranged for soone to follow Miss Song."
Gu Qixiao still felt uneasy, considering Ji Yu’s dangerous situation. If the information got out, Ji Yu would inevitably be captured by them.
After much thought, he decided he needed to personally speak to Song Xuan about the matter.
anwhile, Song Xuan was feeling restless. She never thought she’d encounter such a predicant. But since Ji Yu was in such serious trouble, she couldn’t be blad for her cold-heartedness.
"Ji Yu, you can’t bla . It wasn’t my fault your situation turned out like this..."
She clearly understood the circumstances.
As long as Ji Yu died, she could have Gu Qixiao all to herself forever.
Just the thought of this gave her peace of mind.
"What are you doing?" Gu Qixiao appeared suddenly, watching Song Xuan whispering to herself in a sneaky manner, instinctively trying to gauge her expression.
Startled by his unexpected presence, Song Xuan stamred, "Xiao, why are you here?"
"You know about Yu’s situation." He spoke in a matter-of-fact tone, making it clear he already knew.
Unwilling to admit it, she tried to deny, "Xiao, you must be misunderstanding sothing. I don’t know anything. Did you really co back just to talk about this?"
All she wanted was for Gu Qixiao to leave as soon as possible.
Speaking about these matters only made her uneasy.
She still had unfinished business with Ji Yu.
Gu Qixiao snorted coldly, "Song Xuan, I’ve warned you many tis not to target Yu. Before doing anything, have you considered your current position? If sothing happens to her, do you really think you’ll be safe?"
He had never let anyone off who had hard Ji Yu.
Upon hearing this, her expression changed slightly, evidently caught off guard by his words.
"I didn’t an that, Xiao. You misunderstood. I really don’t know anything about this."
She tried to appear aggrieved, looking pitifully at Gu Qixiao, hoping he would drop the subject.
But Gu Qixiao wasn’t the type to fall for her act. "Song Xuan, we’ve known each other for so long. Do you think I wouldn’t see through your intentions?"
He knew her personality well enough to understand there was sothing suspicious going on.
Seeing there was no way out, Song Xuan reluctantly said, "Xiao, you’ve already put under surveillance. What more do you want? Do you think I’d share this information with anyone else?"
Her expression was tinged with bitterness, as though she were being unjustly accused.
But Gu Qixiao wasn’t buying it. "You’d better not."
He wasn’t about to let anyone who targeted Ji Yu walk free.
Watching his fierce expression, Song Xuan’s heart burned with jealousy, hardening her resolve to act against Ji Yu.
As long as Ji Yu remained alive, she would never have Gu Qixiao in this lifeti.
This was her only opportunity.
The situation had grown complicated.
But Gu Qixiao still felt sothing wasn’t quite right. "Stay here and rest for now. Don’t concern yourself with anything else."
He had other matters to attend to and naturally wouldn’t stay long.
After he left, Song Xuan opened the door and peeked out. As expected, soone was stationed at the door. They greeted her politely upon seeing her. "Miss Song, please rest well at ho during this ti. Let us know if you need anything."
While polite, their deanor clearly showed no intention of letting her go.
Song Xuan could easily understand the subtext.
"You don’t have to worry about . I’ll stay here obediently."
She was anxious to spread the news but found the situation completely different from what she had anticipated.
anwhile, Ji Yu had largely managed to pass on her updates here.
Every ti Li Yu looked at her, his gaze was full of suspicion. But Ji Yu’s ntal fortitude was strong.
"Looking at like that—are you suspecting of pulling any tricks behind your back? If you don’t even trust , why won’t you let leave?"
"Doctor Ji, you’re overthinking. How could I possibly suspect you? It’s just that recently, Doctor Ji seems particularly quiet. Don’t you want to step outside, soak in so sunlight, or take a walk?"
His words didn’t address his actual concerns outright.
But Ji Yu’s behavior indeed made him wary.
"I don’t understand what you an."
She looked at him calmly, knowing his words contained underlying implications.
"Doctor Ji, how could you not understand? I’m rely concerned about you and your child. Even if you don’t care about yourself, you should at least consider the child in your womb."
His words carried a veiled threat.
Ji Yu knew they didn’t have concrete information in their hands; otherwise, things wouldn’t have unfolded this way.
"I’ll protect my child. I don’t need your concern. What you should worry about is your plan."
