Ji Yu didn’t know whether he would resort to extre asures, but judging by the current situation, it really didn’t seem likely.
"She’s the one who caused Uncle Hu to end up like this, so it’s only natural that I make her taste the sa pain. Don’t worry, Yu, I know what I’m doing."
For so reason, Ji Yu couldn’t help but doubt his words.
And in fact, her doubts weren’t entirely unfounded.
The next day, Ji Yu received news about Hu Qianqian’s incident.
"Where is she?"
"She’s passed away. Rescuing her was unsuccessful." The secretary’s expression was sowhat awkward.
When Ji Yu heard this, she wasn’t surprised in the slightest.
In Jiang Huai’s eyes, it seed like only such matters warranted revenge.
Her gaze toward Jiang Huai beca tinged with fear.
And fear was the expression Jiang Huai least wanted to see.
"Yu, why are you scared of ? I’m just helping you get your revenge. The fact that she didn’t survive is her own fault. Why are you afraid of ?"
Jiang Huai always believed that everything he did was for Ji Yu, so regardless of the outco, Ji Yu shouldn’t fear him at this mont.
"Jiang Huai, I’ve never said she needs to die. This was your own decision. Don’t you think your thods are too excessive?"
No rational person would go to such extres.
Jiang Huai sighed helplessly. "If I didn’t kill her, she’d just keep troubling you. I only wanted to help you."
But his approach was far too crude and brutal.
Even when Ji Yu wanted revenge, killing was never sothing she’d intended.
"Jiang Huai, in the future, don’t act on your own anymore. For , there are other ways to handle such things. You said you just wanted to teach her a lesson, but what you did took her life."
She knew Jiang Huai may not fully grasp the gravity of this.
So she decided to see the situation for herself.
By this ti, the police had already completed the injury assessnt and quickly ruled it as an accidental incident.
Ji Yu knew they were likely under Jiang Huai’s arrangents.
Here, Jiang Huai held absolute power.
"I’d like to see Hu Qianqian’s condition."
After all, they shared so blood ties. Ji Yu didn’t want her death to be so careless; at the very least, her father certainly wouldn’t want to see such an outco.
"Yu, there’s nothing worth looking at here. People like her deserve it. And her father will be joining her soon anyway."
Ji Yu didn’t argue further. She knew no matter what she said, she couldn’t stop Jiang Huai from continuing his madness.
She suddenly found herself wondering how she and Gu Qixiao managed to survive initially. Being targeted by soone so obsessed must require constant readiness to be shattered to pieces.
"Yu, don’t be afraid. I won’t hurt you. Even if I’m injured myself, I would never harm you."
The wound on his forehead hadn’t healed yet, and as he said these words, they still held a asure of credibility.
"Don’t you resent ?" Ji Yu sotis wondered about this, given the nature of their relationship.
"How could I ever resent you? In my eyes, you’re the most perfect person. You’re my everything—my happiness. How could I possibly resent you?"
All of his joyous monts were tied to Ji Yu.
Even when Ji Yu simply wanted to provoke him, he willingly accepted it.
"You can think of as a madman. But this madman would never hurt you. Whatever you say, I will obey."
The only thing he couldn’t bear was Ji Yu getting hurt. For now, Ji Yu being by his side ant she was relatively safe.
"Jiang Huai, you really are a complete lunatic."
But unfortunately, this lunatic was one she couldn’t shake off.
Ji Yu said nothing further.
The two returned to the villa together.
But Ji Yu’s mind was still preoccupied with the events of the day.
"Yu..."
Ji Yu faintly heard soone calling her na. She thought sothing had happened, but as she looked up, she was utterly shocked.
"You..." She stared at the head in the window, as if it was so sort of ghostly apparition in the dead of night.
"Yu, don’t scream. I’m just here to talk to you. Jiang Huai won’t let see you now." Ji Yuanzhou spoke helplessly. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have resorted to such a dangerous approach.
Speechless, Ji Yu looked at the person before her, finally realizing how tangled this matter had beco.
"If you have sothing to say, you can call . Why would you do sothing like this? Do you have no regard for your life?" She didn’t dare to hesitate any longer, pulling him up as she spoke.
Ji Yuanzhou knew she must be upset.
"Yu, don’t focus so much on how dangerous this is. I ca to talk to you today because of Uncle Hu. I just received confirmation that Uncle Hu’s condition is dire—it may boil down to the next few days. If you have ti, you’d better go visit. It’s possible Jiang Huai is lying to you right now."
Ji Yu’s hand nearly trembled, but she quickly composed herself.
"You’re lying to , aren’t you? How could sothing like this happen? I know my dad’s condition is stable; there’s no way sothing would go wrong so quickly." She truly felt this was absurd.
"Why would I lie to you? Gu Qixiao got this news from Fan Mingxing. Haven’t you noticed Jiang Huai acting strange tonight?"
To be honest, Ji Yu hadn’t noticed. Perhaps it was because she didn’t pay much attention to Jiang Huai.
"What’s really going on? Just go and take a look yourself." His gaze toward Ji Yu was serious.
Ji Yu bit her lip, her face slightly pale. She didn’t dare believe this was true.
In the end, she decided to see for herself what was going on.
Jiang Huai, at this mont, was busy dealing with the chaos caused by all of this. He hadn’t expected things to escalate to this degree. He feared losing Ji Yu and the repercussions of Hu Jianyu’s situation affecting them.
"Jiang Huai, are you there?" Ji Yu knocked on his room door, trying her best to appear normal.
She just hoped Jiang Huai wouldn’t show any signs of guilt later; otherwise, Hu Jianyu might truly lose his chance.
"I’m here." Jiang Huai suppressed his inner turmoil, opened the study door, and smiled warmly at Ji Yu, as if nothing had happened.
