Hearing soone call out to stop, Ji Yu looked over curiously.
"Why is it you?" Ji Yu stared at Li Yu in exasperation, baffled about what was going on. Could he actually be trying to kidnap her?
"It’s just a misunderstanding, there’s no need to blow this out of proportion. Besides, I invited you here because there’s sothing I need to discuss with you," Li Yu said candidly about the situation.
He knew Ji Yu was a capable person, so he wasn’t particularly surprised by how things turned out.
The police officers on-site, seeing the situation, were montarily unsure about what to do next.
"Do you two know each other?"
Ji Yu realized that certain things could only be discussed privately between them; involving the police wasn’t an option.
"Sorry to trouble you all today. This is just a misunderstanding; I’ve figured it out now. My friend invited here to discuss sothing—it was accidental, that’s all."
The police officers, seeing this explanation, could only back off for now.
With the two seeming acquainted and no signs of a physical altercation, they could only retreat for the mont.
Ji Yu stared at Li Yu, curious about what exactly he wanted from her.
"Going through all this trouble to get here—don’t tell you just wanted to see ?" With so many people around her, she naturally wasn’t afraid of whatever move he might try to make next.
"I just want to discuss the next steps with you."
"If this is still about what you brought up last ti, then there’s nothing to discuss between us. I already told you I won’t agree to it." Since the matter was already in the past, it had nothing to do with her anymore.
"It seems Doctor Ji isn’t interested in cooperating with . In that case, I might have to target the people around you. You know how capable I am—you can’t protect everyone," he said, abandoning subtlety and resorting to outright threats.
Ji Yu despised anyone who would threaten the people around her.
"What do you an?" Such tactics only made her dislike him more.
"My aning is simple. Haven’t you figured out my intentions? I just want to have a good talk with you, or you could simply agree to my proposal right now." How could sothing so straightforward beco complicated?
"Your words are aningless; I’ve already said I won’t do anything that crosses my moral boundaries." Ji Yu had resisted the idea from the start, and yet he insisted on pushing forward. It was clear their perspectives were incompatible.
"Doctor Ji, why rush? I think you already have so thoughts in your heart. Why not give it a try? Maybe you’ll find that this matter isn’t as bad as you believe."
"Well, thank you so much," Ji Yu couldn’t help but roll her eyes, baffled by his unwarranted confidence. Perhaps people like him all shared a common trait of blind self-assurance.
The old woman earlier had been suspicious—definitely not just a regular elderly person.
"Try to trick with this ploy, and it’ll only lead to more conflict between us."
And besides, she wasn’t alone in this.
"If you intend to ss with , you’d better check who’s backing first. Do you think Gu Qixiao is just a pushover?"
Since she was already with Gu Qixiao, she wouldn’t hesitate to involve him when faced with trouble.
After all, this situation already reeked of threats. Was he really unaware that their cooperation was impossible?
"What you’ve done before only makes detest you even more. Do you honestly think I’ll collaborate with you after seeing you like this? You’re dreaming."
Li Yu was well aware that Ji Yu was a pragmatic person, so he felt compelled to use other thods to make her understand that things wouldn’t be as simple as she believed.
"Ji Yu, your persistence is fleeting. You’ll eventually realize that everything I’m saying is true, and your so-called convictions are nothing more than illusions."
Hearing that, Ji Yu knew continuing the conversation was pointless. He was clearly set on his agenda, and without any room for agreent, parting ways was the best option.
"There’s no point talking further. Since we can’t find common ground, just let leave already."
If they couldn’t talk properly, there was no reason to continue.
Li Yu didn’t stop her either. He knew she had brought a crowd with her, making it impossible for him to keep her here.
"Ji Yu, you’ll regret this eventually."
"Then I’ll deal with it when I regret it. I’m stubborn like that—I don’t turn back unless I hit a dead end. So everything you’re saying is aningless to ." Ji Yu was never afraid of confrontations like this.
After all, everyone had their own thoughts and motives. Why waste energy on soone like him?
Leaving the small room, Ji Yu felt considerably lighter. After all, this matter wasn’t going to affect her much.
But Gu Qixiao, upon hearing about it, rushed over frantically.
"Yu, are you okay?" He was worried he might have arrived too late and found Ji Yu hurt.
He anxiously scanned her up and down, checking for any signs of injuries.
"I’m fine." Ji Yu smiled at the man in front of her, appreciating his concern, though she could handle these matters on her own.
Ji Yu wasn’t interested in worrying too much about it.
"The issue is already over. There’s no reason for more interaction with them in the future. Even if they want trouble, they’ll have to see if they’re capable of it." Ji Yu had confidence in dealing with what ca next.
Gu Qixiao deeply detested Li Yu’s approach.
"If sothing like this happens again, just leave it to . I won’t give him any chance to contact you again."
It was rare for him to get angry over sothing, but this incident truly annoyed him.
"Also, your whereabouts seem to have been leaked for a while now. I’m worried soone might try to target you next, so you should investigate the people around you and see if anyone’s been leaking your information."
This was undeniable, though Ji Yu hadn’t had the ti lately to deal with it.
Ji Yu also understood there was still much work to be done moving forward.
"Still, I don’t think he’ll co looking for again anyti soon. This whole thing is already impossible to continue."
Their plan had no feasibility in the first place, and now that their true identities had been exposed, how could they carry on?
"You don’t need to worry too much about . I can handle this myself. You should focus on your company instead—things have already been busy enough for you lately."
