She was indeed a little curious about this matter, but now that everything had been explained clearly, it could be seen as a way to set the record straight for them.
Ji Yu was still very clear about the current situation at heart.
"Back then, I also suspected my parents didn’t want anymore. But later, I just figured, maybe they sent away so I could live a better life."
She could choose not to care about these things.
Now, she was already living a very happy life.
"I have my own career, my own family. Isn’t that wonderful? I also understand that you must have been very upset before. In that case, let’s not dwell on the past. I am back now, and those past events should be forgotten."
She smiled as she looked at her father.
But she couldn’t help but care about this matter deep down.
Ji Yu actually wanted to take care of him too.
Hu Jianyu wiped away his tears, knowing that he probably had too many emotions inside him at the mont.
"Yu, you really are soone who leaves others with no choice. But you don’t need to think about these things anymore. From now on, just enjoy everything I provide for you. You can simply call Uncle."
He wouldn’t force his daughter. After all, so much had already happened during that ti, and it was a good thing Ji Yu had her own family now.
But he had unavoidably lost his forr family forever.
Initially, Hu Jianyu still felt a bit upset. But the mont the butler told him that Gu Qixiao had arrived, his spirits were imdiately lifted.
He was eager to take a good look at the man who had managed to win over his daughter.
The Gu Qixiao he saw wasn’t in great shape.
Even though Gu Qixiao had tidied himself up deliberately before coming, it was still evident that he was in a poor state.
When he saw Ji Yu, he didn’t rush over imdiately. Instead, he carefully touched Ji Yu’s face. "Yu, you’re alive..."
He was afraid Ji Yu might be injured and also worried that everything in front of him was just a dream.
Ji Yu didn’t know what she could do to ease Gu Qixiao’s pain. She could only look at him helplessly. "I’m real, I’m alive. Besides, I told you I was going to save you. How could I have just casually thrown my life away?"
Only God knew how hard it had been for her to survive back then.
Thinking about it now, it really was a gamble.
Actually, Gu Qixiao didn’t want anything from Ji Yu. He just wanted her to be safe and sound. Now that this situation was unfolding before his eyes, only God knew how much his heart ached.
"Yu, thank goodness you’re okay. You have no idea how painful it’s been for during this ti. I love you. I’ve truly been longing for you for too long."
He didn’t know how Ji Yu had managed to endure all this ti, but seeing her now, he resolved to protect her no matter what.
No matter what happens, as long as he’s there, he would never let any harm co to Ji Yu again.
"Yu, are you hurt anywhere? Let see. I’ve been so worried this whole ti, but thankfully, you’re okay now."
He wanted so desperately to kiss Ji Yu, but knowing that there were many people around, he could only ask if she was hurt.
"I’m fine now. The situation was quite severe before, but thanks to my biological father taking care of , I’ve mostly recovered by now."
Her words made Hu Jianyu very happy. Yet, no matter how he looked at Gu Qixiao, he wasn’t satisfied. The main issue was that Gu Qixiao currently appeared so rundown that he seed completely unsuitable for Ji Yu.
"Are you Yu’s fiancé?" He looked at Gu Qixiao with imnse displeasure. Not only because of Gu Qixiao’s disheveled state, but also because, in Hu Jianyu’s eyes, Gu Qixiao seed useless. How else could he have needed a woman to save him?
"Hello, Uncle. I am indeed Yu’s fiancé. We were already planning to get married, but we didn’t anticipate this incident happening."
In his heart, Gu Qixiao deeply regretted it. If he had known things would turn out this way, he wouldn’t have acted so impulsively back then. Now, seeing Ji Yu like this, only God knew how much his heart ached.
"I understand you’re concerned about Yu, but your behavior is bound to let people down. Look at the state you’re in—so rundown. And why did Yu have to rescue you in the first place?"
Just thinking about how his daughter had nearly lost her life because of this scoundrel was sothing Hu Jianyu couldn’t get over. Besides, nobody had co looking for Ji Yu after she went missing—it was clear they lacked the ability anyway.
No matter how he looked at Gu Qixiao, he was displeased.
Ji Yu also understood that this kind of situation was common. Fathers often reacted this way, but her relationship with Gu Qixiao really didn’t need such judgnts.
"Uncle Hu, Gu Qixiao is very important to . He’s the person I care about the most. While it’s true that I saved him this ti, it was always he who took care of before."
Love is always mutual.
No one can predict what will happen in the future, but for now, Ji Yu was grateful for everything Gu Qixiao had done for her before.
"Yu, you have to look at a man’s capabilities. If he’s incapable, then no matter how you look at it, it won’t work. You should be more practical."
Ji Yu didn’t know how to respond to this.
But Gu Qixiao was far from being an incapable man.
"Uncle Hu, I think there’s so misunderstanding. This isn’t what you think at all," she said, hoping Hu Jianyu wouldn’t hold any preconceived notions about Gu Qixiao.
Since they were already on the verge of marriage, it symbolized that they were the most suitable for each other.
She didn’t want those around her to have ill feelings toward Gu Qixiao.
Hu Jianyu understood that Ji Yu probably cared deeply for this man, but it didn’t stop him from being displeased with Gu Qixiao.
"Well, then stay here for now. Yu still needs to fully recover before we discuss anything further."
He wanted Ji Yu to stay a little longer. If anything else were to happen, it wouldn’t be right.
Ji Yu knew in her heart that it might take so ti for their relationship to truly heal.
"You should go get so proper rest. You look so worn out—have you not been resting well recently?" Her gentle tone broke Gu Qixiao’s heart.
But he finally understood—Ji Yu was truly alive.
"I’ll take good care of myself and rest properly, but promise you won’t ever do sothing so foolish again, okay?"
He gazed at her intently, and Ji Yu understood what he ant. "Of course, nothing like this will happen again."
