"But this isn’t a long-term solution. Are you sure you want to go?"
"I can’t just ignore Qinqin. Even if there’s nothing special between you two, there’s no way I’d let her endure grievances at a ti like this." Ji Yu was acting this way mainly because Qinqin was her friend. That’s why she made this decision.
"Alright." Ji Yuanzhou didn’t really know what Ji Yu was thinking deep down, but the situation had already escalated to this point—there was no turning back for anyone.
"Yu, I want to reconcile with Qinqin."
"That’s your own business. I don’t know if you’ll succeed. After all, Qinqin isn’t soone who just cos back easily." In Ji Yu’s heart, Feng Qinqin was also quite stubborn. Once she decided on sothing, there was no changing her mind.
"I know Qinqin must still resent deep down. I’m willing to change. Whether she chooses to co back ultimately depends on her own feelings."
But Ji Yu couldn’t help but recall what had happened back then. If he could really change, then after that incident, he should’ve already done so.
"Honestly, I don’t even know what to say to you, big brother. Sotis, opportunities only co once. If you let go at this point, maybe you can still save yourself."
If he insisted on continuing like this, he might end up seriously hurt.
"I know, but I don’t regret it." He looked at Ji Yu, as if he had made up his mind.
It was just like Jiang Huai had said that day: If he couldn’t confess his feelings to Ji Yu, and if he couldn’t bravely pursue Feng Qinqin, then he’d truly be pathetic.
"Yu, I just want to give it a try. What if I can actually succeed?"
Ji Yu didn’t say anything more in the end. This was sothing they would know best themselves, and how they chose to deal with it would ultimately be their decision.
Soon, the two of them arrived at Uncle Feng’s house. However, it seed like he was already aware of the situation beforehand, so his deanor was unassailable. He maintained a calm and collected look while facing Ji Yu.
"Yu, I really don’t know who did this. If you’re trying to pin it on , you’ll need evidence. I’m not about to wear this hat you’re forcing on ."
His performance was flawless, and his tone was so natural that even Ji Yu felt unsure.
"Uncle, you should know my temper. The thing I care about most is that no one should ever cross my bottom line. If you disregard my feelings and step on it anyway, there’s no way I’ll let you off."
Ji Yu’s words were straightforward, almost outright accusing him of being behind it.
"Yu, this is a misunderstanding, isn’t it? I’m not as despicable as you think. How could I possibly harm my own niece? We still have a decent relationship, don’t we? If I were to harm her, wouldn’t I be courting divine retribution?"
Ji Yu couldn’t tell what he was really thinking.
If he wouldn’t admit to it, no one could do anything about it.
"What is it? Did I say sothing wrong just now? I honestly just want a resolution to this. No need to be so anxious—I won’t do anything to you. As for Qinqin, I’m also looking for her whereabouts."
His speech sounded so dignified that, for a mont, it was hard to find anything wrong with it.
"Uncle, the fact I’m still speaking to you civilly is because I don’t want things to get too ugly. If you’re planning to harm Qinqin, you’d better think twice about the people backing up."
Her current ties with Gu Qixiao and Jiang Huai were well-known. Even if soone wanted to act against her, they’d have to consider it carefully.
As expected, when he heard Ji Yu’s words, his expression stalled for a mont. But in the end, he just shook his head and smiled. "I really have no idea where Qinqin is."
"Fine, then Uncle, don’t bla for being impolite. What I despise most are lies, so I hope you won’t do anything foolish regarding this matter."
Ji Yu always ant what she said.
The people she brought with her imdiately understood what she ant and began turning the house upside down in search.
Uncle Feng’s face darkened. He felt that Ji Yu’s actions were highly disrespectful. "Ji Yu, what is the aning of this? It’s one thing to suspect , but now you’re going to wreck my ho?"
He was visibly irritated.
But Ji Yu didn’t feel there was anything wrong with her actions.
"Uncle, if you have nothing to hide, then let us continue searching. If there’s sothing you’re hiding, hand her over quickly. There’s no need to make this ss any worse. I actually want this resolved as soon as possible."
Although she was still smiling faintly, Uncle Feng realized Ji Yu was issuing a threat.
"Ji Yu, you’re really sothing, aren’t you? No wonder Feng Qinqin has a friend like you. It makes complete sense."
"Oh? I also find what you’re saying funny. Uncle, if you truly haven’t done anything, why assu I’m such a difficult person? Did you think once Uncle Feng was hospitalized that Qinqin would lose all her support?" Ji Yu cared deeply about this matter, so her tone was unequivocal and confrontational.
Perhaps Uncle Feng hadn’t expected Ji Yu to act so boldly, and for a mont he found himself unable to handle the situation.
"Ji Yu, think carefully. If you don’t find Feng Qinqin here, this whole matter will beco even harder to resolve later."
He was putting on a show of being concerned about family harmony, but Ji Yu knew full well what he was really thinking.
In her eyes, he was nothing more than a filthy, twisted worm.
"What you’re saying is aningless to . No matter what happens, I’ll always stand by Qinqin. As for your words, I’ll treat them as a joke and laugh them off."
She had her own difficulties, but she would never let Feng Qinqin face this kind of situation alone.
"Yu, you’re really relentless. But this is just the beginning. Do you really think you’re Qinqin’s savior? I’m very curious—do you plan to stay by Feng Qinqin’s side at all tis?"
His tone carried a thinly veiled mockery, which made Ji Yu feel disgusted. But since things had escalated to this point, there was no reason to hold back.
"I’m absolutely willing to stand by Qinqin. What can you do about it?" Ji Yu’s words were blunt and sharp.
She hadn’t co here today with the intention of being polite.
