"But you’ve already lied to so many tis before." Gu Qixiao said this with a trace of grievance, as if the mory of past events still lingered vividly in his mind.
"Yu, you absolutely cannot keep lying to . I know, deep down, you must still be blaming ."
Sotis, he actually understood this truth, but for so reason, he just couldn’t change the current situation.
"Promise , don’t lie to , okay? If you lie to again, your punishnt will be staying by my side for the rest of your life."
Ji Yu suddenly felt a surge of emotion, almost as though she were on the verge of tears. Perhaps the current situation was just too heartbreaking.
"Gu Qixiao, just get so proper sleep. When you wake up, you’ll see you already have everything." She couldn’t bring herself to make such a promise, knowing that lying to him would only deepen the sadness in his heart.
"Yu, how can you be so heartless? You could’ve just told directly. If you’re leaving, you could’ve just said so, and I wouldn’t have stopped you." After all, he felt his ti may already be limited. It’d be better to just let her go and allow her to live the rest of her life happily.
"I’ve never been a heartless person; sotis, I just have to pretend to be." Ji Yu had made herself clear enough.
She watched as the large hand that had been clutching her arm slid away weakly, and a pang of sorrow rose in her chest.
"Gu Qixiao, let’s never see each other again after this."
She left without saying anything, not even exchanging a word with Mr. Gu.
When Gu Qixiao woke up again, he found himself completely alone, though his body felt surprisingly light.
"Xiao, are you okay?" Mr. Gu’s heart was still restless. After all, given what had happened to his son, he couldn’t find any peace of mind.
"What could possibly be wrong with ? I just slept, that’s all." Gu Qixiao felt there was nothing wrong with his body. In fact, he actually felt extrely healthy.
"You scared half to death during this ti." But so things couldn’t be said aloud.
Mr. Gu knew all too well that since Ji Yu had made a sacrifice, this matter couldn’t be disclosed.
Saying it out loud would only bring unnecessary trouble to everyone.
Gu Qixiao felt a bit puzzled but also oddly empty inside, as though he had forgotten sothing very important.
"Dad, have I forgotten sothing really important?"
"There’s nothing important worth rembering. If you’ve already forgotten it, then it wasn’t important. Just focus on recovering well. You’ve been through enough lately." Mr. Gu ultimately chose not to reveal the past.
The past was in the past. It would be best if no one ever brought it up again.
Over on Ji Yu’s side, she seed rather calm.
Faced with an entirely unfamiliar face, her expression remained composed.
"Yu, since you’ve already used the antidote I created, there’s no chance for you to rember anything about him anymore." Jiang Huai had full confidence in what he had developed.
Besides, their relationship had grown far too close. Forgetting each other was probably for the best now.
"Jiang Huai, even if I forget everything from before, I will never fall in love with you." Ji Yu was perfectly clear on this and made sure to tell him in advance. Otherwise, if the eventual outco disappointed him, who else might he direct his anger at?
"How can you be so certain? Maybe you’ll find, in ti, that I was always the most suitable person for you. You just didn’t see it in the beginning."
He was that confident, believing that their relationship could undoubtedly progress further—this was rely the beginning.
"Ji Yu, take a good rest. When you wake up, you’ll realize I’m the one most suited for you."
Ji Yu didn’t say anything more. She had already told him her stance. If he refused to believe it, that was his problem.
That night’s sleep brought her an unusual sense of peace.
Previous mories played over and over again in her mind.
Until, finally, they dissolved entirely into nothingness.
When everything resurfaced, she was t with a completely unfamiliar scene.
"Yu, you’ve finally made it through." Jiang Huai, having already prepared himself for their possible union, was visibly excited in this mont.
Ji Yu frowned, "Why are you here? If I’m not mistaken, weren’t you supposed to be dead?"
It turned out that this face he had inadvertently fabricated belonged to soone from her past.
"Of course, I wouldn’t just die like that." When he heard those words, his heart skipped a beat. After all, those past mories had left a lasting mark on him.
Those mories were important.
But even so, he didn’t intend to die just yet.
"Yu, you probably don’t rember this, but we’ve long been engaged. All that’s left is to hold the wedding."
He could spin endless lies when it ca to this matter.
Ji Yu naturally didn’t believe a word of it. If she had a fiancé, how could she not know?
"Are you out of your mind? There’s hardly any connection between us, let alone talk of an engagent. That’s completely fabricated."
She felt as though he was joking.
"I’m not joking. We are engaged and were once very close. You’ve simply forgotten now."
When he said this, he looked helpless, and there was even a trace of lancholy in his tone.
"Yu, I know you must have missed as well. It’s just that your heart has been preoccupied with certain things, which led to this situation. But I don’t mind."
Ji Yu was increasingly convinced that there was sothing off about him. They hadn’t even truly t, yet his words stirred undeniable suspicions.
"Uncle Hu is still waiting for you and . Don’t even think about anything else. I know you still care deeply about Uncle Hu’s feelings."
Jiang Huai hadn’t forgotten about that.
"Is my dad’s condition still as bad as before?" Ji Yu was visibly worried about Hu Jianyu’s health.
"Don’t worry, I’ll find the best doctor to treat Uncle Hu. For now, he’s just temporarily sleeping." He comforted Ji Yu gently.
