In fact, Ji Yu cared about those rumors at first, but later she realized that she couldn’t control what others thought, so she might as well stop worrying about it.
"The more fiercely they argue, the more advantageous the outco will be for ." Ji Yu had started to learn not to dwell on the process but to focus only on the results.
Zhang Yaohuan admired Ji Yu a lot. "With your personality, you’d be perfect for the entertainnt industry, but unfortunately, I suppose you don’t have any interest in it."
The entertainnt industry was still sowhat distant from Ji Yu, so she certainly wasn’t interested in paying attention to it casually.
"The entertainnt industry has little to do with . I love my career."
At least for now, everything was progressing exactly as she’d envisioned.
"That’s actually pretty good." To so extent, Zhang Yaohuan envied her. If given another chance, perhaps she wouldn’t choose the entertainnt industry either.
"Don’t worry. Since I promised to help you with the promotion, this won’t change. You also don’t need to worry about stabbing you in the back."
Zhang Yaohuan knew Ji Yu had offended quite a few people, so helping her might not necessarily be a good thing for Ji Yu.
"Alright." Ji Yu smiled, clearly willing to trust her words.
That said, Ji Yu was indeed not in a suitable condition to continue with surgery right now—not only because she was pregnant but also due to doubts about whether these people were genuinely well-aning.
As a result, Ji Yu didn’t give out any contact information, which in turn led many to question the authenticity of the matter.
Gu Qixiao was visibly unhappy when he saw the hateful comnts about Ji Yu.
"Yu, I’ll take down all those posts right now."
"No need. If you take them down, it’ll make them think I have a guilty conscience. At tis like this, you should just ignore them. Besides, I don’t care about what they’re saying." Ji Yu understood the nature of these situations well.
Yet, she knew that in many cases, these people would stir up more trouble.
"I can’t stand seeing them insult you like this." For Gu Qixiao, this was sothing utterly unacceptable.
But Ji Yu didn’t think it was a big deal.
"I was already used to being insulted back then. Now, it’s just idle talk." At the beginning, things like this bothered her, but in the end, didn’t everything turn out fine?
She still rembered how bad it used to get back in the day.
Especially when it ca to the wave started by Song Xuan and her group—it hurt Ji Yu every ti. But in the end, didn’t things get better?
"Don’t worry. I have a decent amount of ntal resilience. If you really care about , just don’t get involved. Pretend you didn’t see anything."
Truth be told, Gu Qixiao still felt sowhat guilty about what happened back then. After all, he and Ji Yu weren’t particularly close at that ti, which led to quite a few conflicts. He wanted to help Ji Yu resolve those issues, but he also wished she’d compromise.
"Yu, I still owe you an apology for what happened back then."
Every ti he thought about it, guilt weighed heavily on him.
But so much ti had passed, there really wasn’t any need to dwell on it anymore.
"I’m not soone who holds grudges. The past is in the past. Aren’t we fine now?"
She believed that Gu Qixiao hadn’t done those things intentionally back then.
Besides, the matter involving Song Xuan was undoubtedly a tough one for him to handle.
Now that Song Xuan had her own life, the only question was whether she’d behave herself.
Ji Yu wasn’t wrong in her assessnt. Song Xuan still wasn’t willing to let go. However, the love she once felt had now transford into hatred.
"Mr. Shi, you can’t just leave hanging like this. That woman, Ji Yu, is absolutely relentless. If you don’t handle her now, no one will be able to later."
Song Xuan felt a certain degree of fear about this.
She’d seen Ji Yu’s tactics in the past and couldn’t help but suspect that Ji Yu wouldn’t let things slide this ti either.
Shi Chengxin was evidently already fed up with her. "Since Ji Yu hasn’t even targeted you yet, what are you so anxious about?"
He was irritated by the matter and had no desire for further interaction with her.
For a mont, Song Xuan felt as if she’d been slapped in the face. "This whole thing happened because of your orders. Do you think you can just wash your hands of it and walk away?"
He had never intended to stay uninvolved. "Gu Qixiao and I have always been arch-enemies. You don’t actually think this matter will end so easily, do you? The grievances between him and have long been unresolvable. Compared to that, this issue is trivial for both of us."
He regarded the situation with utter disdain.
However, the news Song Xuan brought him did manage to catch him off guard. A man like Gu Qixiao actually had soone he truly liked.
It was genuinely surprising.
"I have other things to attend to. Handle this yourself." He had no intention of dealing with Song Xuan any further.
Song Xuan could only watch helplessly as he walked away, her heart filled with bitterness.
Unable to resist, she went downstairs to the company to catch a glimpse of Gu Qixiao.
Unexpectedly, Assistant Li noticed her.
"Miss Song, is there sothing you need?" He was visibly surprised by her presence.
"Who?" Gu Qixiao, already in a foul mood, beca wary upon hearing soone had arrived.
It had been a long ti since Song Xuan last saw him. She thought her feelings for him had faded by now, but when she really laid eyes on him, she realized she still couldn’t let go.
"Xiao, I just ca to see you. I know you don’t want to see ."
She smiled bitterly, her gaze upon Gu Qixiao filled with longing.
But Gu Qixiao showed no interest in her whatsoever.
"If you know I don’t want to see you, then what’s the point of coming here? I hope you stay out of my sight in the future."
Just thinking about the things she’d done before made it impossible for him to stay calm.
There was no way for him to kill Song Xuan outright, so the only option was to ensure he never had to see her again.
"Xiao, can’t we even be friends anymore? I regret much of what I did back then. If I had another chance, I swear I wouldn’t act that way again."
But where in this world does one find a dicine for regret?
"Since you did such awful things back then, no amount of regret will ever take us back to how we were. The only reason I’m sparing you now is because of your brother. I hope you cherish this opportunity and stop appearing in front of ."
He hadn’t forgotten the stupid things she’d done or the harm she’d caused Ji Yu.
