He had been absent as a qualified father in Ji Yu’s life for far too long. So now, in his eyes, doing all of this was only natural. As long as Ji Yu was happy, nothing else really mattered.
Perhaps she didn’t expect him to say that, Ji Yu felt a bit at a loss.
She understood the situation in front of her very clearly.
"Dad, if you feel the need to compensate , there’s really no need to go to such great lengths. To , you’ve already done more than enough. There’s no reason to overthink this."
She knew the kind of person he was, but many things were simply accidents.
"What happened back then was an accident. Now, all I want is to protect you."
She also wished to protect her father.
Hearing Ji Yu’s words, his heart felt relieved and comforted.
He also understood that Ji Yu’s current deanor must have been influenced by the events of the past.
He hoped Ji Yu wouldn’t be burdened or upset because of those things.
"You don’t need to worry. I’ll handle these matters. Yu, just focus on being my daughter, that’s enough."
If anyone dared to bully his daughter at this ti, it would surely breach his final line of defense.
anwhile, Hu Jianda couldn’t shake off the uneasiness in his heart, largely because Ji Yu’s current behavior seed far too sudden.
He felt that Ji Yu’s actions now were sowhat odd.
"Dad, if you’re really that worried, why don’t we test things out? Haven’t I already gained Ji Yu and their trust? When I head to the company tomorrow, I’ll gauge Ji Yu’s attitude then."
"Ji Yu’s attitude toward you has always been like that. Do you really think she’d forgive you that easily?" Hu Jianda couldn’t understand how his daughter could be in such a naïve and foolish state.
But the situation was already laid out before him. He needed to see for himself what was going on. If Ji Yu really suspected sothing, then he’d have no choice but to deal with her first.
"Your dealings with Ji Yu had better progress quickly. That person in the shadows is out to harm you. And yet, here you are trying to cover it up for them? I’d say you’ve lost your mind."
He showed no rcy toward Hu Qianqian.
Truth be told, Hu Qianqian still harbored fears in her heart.
Primarily because she hadn’t given up on Gu Qixiao.
So while providing clues to Ji Yu, she also pondered whether it would be better to approach Gu Qixiao sooner rather than later.
In front of Ji Yu, Gu Qixiao acted a certain way, but who’s to say he wasn’t completely different when away from her?
After coming to a decision, she wasted no ti dwelling on it and went straight to the Gu family.
When Gu Qixiao saw her, he was unsurprised but carried an air of cold indifference in his expression.
"President Gu, don’t tell you really intend to play the gentleman. Even if sothing did happen between us, Yu would never find out."
Having decided to approach Gu Qixiao, she resorted to using every possible ans.
Gu Qixiao’s expression remained utterly indifferent, as though he couldn’t even perceive her insinuations.
"President Gu..."
"If you have sothing to say, then say it. If not, get out imdiately. Do you think everyone thinks as you do?" He was nothing like the person she imagined.
"Of course, I ca here to discuss sothing with you, President Gu. Don’t you think sothing could happen between us? Who knows, I might just be a better match for you than Yu."
By this point, she had abandoned all pretense, pressing her body up against Gu Qixiao’s, exuding the charm of a seductive temptress.
But Gu Qixiao only found her repulsive. "If you think your posture is attractive, I suggest you first take a good look in the mirror. Stop doing disgusting things. The one I love is Yu, and that will never change. Things between us are impossible. If you don’t want others finding out about this, then leave at once."
He was already extrely irritated. If she kept this up, Gu Qixiao might just throw her out with his own hands.
Hu Qianqian was utterly shocked. She had been drawn to Gu Qixiao for his wealth and appearance. His reaction only fueled her desire to destroy their relationship.
She would love to see what kind of expression Ji Yu would wear when the ti ca.
"You calling disgusting is because you haven’t tried . How could you compare when you’ve only ever had Yu? Once you’ve experienced my qualities, you might find Yu to be nothing special."
She was confident in her figure and refused to believe Gu Qixiao had no interest.
Gu Qixiao had clearly reached his breaking point.
"Assistant Li, throw this woman out of the building. If anyone lets her in again, they’d better be prepared for my wrath."
He was beyond annoyed, and this woman’s interference only worsened his mood. There was no way he could entertain this nonsense.
"You’ll regret this, Gu Qixiao. But when you do, you can always co looking for . I guarantee I’ll show you the pinnacle of pleasure this world has to offer."
As she spoke, she even threw him a flirtatious wink.
Clearly, she couldn’t believe Gu Qixiao genuinely found her repellent.
Gu Qixiao glanced at his sleeve, which she had clung to earlier, his expression darkening further.
It wasn’t until that evening, when he was with Ji Yu, that his mood sowhat lifted.
Seeing his deanor, Ji Yu imdiately knew sothing must have happened.
"What’s wrong?"
"Yu, can I just deal with Hu Qianqian once and for all?" He was utterly disgusted with her. If he had to keep seeing her, he feared he’d beco physically ill.
Ji Yu frowned, puzzled as to why this was happening. "Are you saying Hu Qianqian ca to see you again today?"
In an instant, she understood why Gu Qixiao wore such an expression.
It was rare for him to display such emotion, indicating just how deeply annoyed he had been this ti.
"Yu, you don’t even know how outrageous that person is. I’m still irked just thinking about it."
He was worried Ji Yu wouldn’t believe him as he recounted the incident.
Ji Yu couldn’t help but laugh at his distress. "I’d never have thought you’d get so worked up over this kind of thing. For now, she can’t die. I still need to uncover so leads from her. Besides, my dad’s situation might be sowhat linked to her."
For the mont, Hu Qianqian had to remain.
Gu Qixiao felt even more aggrieved in his heart. He seldom experienced such emotions, but seeing Ji Yu’s lack of concern over the matter, he suddenly felt a pang of jealousy.
"Yu, aren’t you even a little afraid that sothing might happen between her and ?" Gu Qixiao couldn’t help but wonder whether Ji Yu cared about such things at all.
"If you could actually fall for a woman like her, then perhaps your eyes are in desperate need of a good washing."
