Chapter 163: Chapter 163: What is the Truth?

"The things they’ve done are seriously lacking in decency."

Ji Yu looked at the situation in front of her and couldn’t help but feel a headache coming on. She didn’t understand how everything ultimately ended up on Gu Qixiao.

The situation was already spiraling out of control.

Helpless, Ji Yu could only pull Gu Qixiao back into the office.

"You don’t need to think too much about what I just said. If they dare to post false information online, they must have the courage to face the consequences."

These were not matters that anyone could simply fabricate rumors about.

Ji Yu felt a bit troubled. What worried her was obviously not this. "I just feel that you’re being too reckless this time. Taking all these matters upon yourself—those people will definitely cause trouble for you later."

Such situations were challenging for Ji Yu to manage, but it was different for Gu Qixiao. These people had no connection to Gu Qixiao at all, not even as familiar business partners.

So him speaking out about these matters wouldn’t be a problem.

"They’re trying to guilt you through moral coercion because, in their eyes, you’re related to them by blood. But I’m different."

That’s why this approach was the best.

For a moment, Ji Yu didn’t know what to say.

"Gu Qixiao, thank you." In the end, she still expressed her gratitude.

"If you know to thank me, then don’t let this kind of fear take hold of your heart again in the future. Be a little fairer to me, alright?" He knew Ji Yu had feelings for him. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have hesitated for so long.

The torment between the two of them was rather excruciating, so he wanted to stay by Ji Yu’s side.

This time, Ji Yu didn’t refute him. Instead, she tacitly agreed to his request. Perhaps the two of them really did need to think things through properly.

"Let me take you home. If they come looking for you again, they’ll definitely cause more trouble."

He wanted to escort Ji Yu back home.

Ji Yu didn’t reject his offer, either.

However, as they were heading back, before their unresolved issues could even be addressed, they saw Feng Qinqin and Ji Yuanzhou standing not far away.

Feng Qinqin was crying so hard she could barely breathe, while Ji Yuanzhou stood there at a complete loss, looking like something was amiss.

"Are the two of them together?" Gu Qixiao was obviously somewhat surprised, but his ability to accept such developments was still quite high.

Ji Yu thought back to what had happened earlier and suddenly understood why Feng Qinqin had mentioned having someone she liked but never told her who it was—it turned out to be Ji Yuanzhou.

At the thought of this, Ji Yu felt another headache coming on. On one side was her close friend, and on the other was Ji Yuanzhou. She truly didn’t know whose side she should take.

But seeing Feng Qinqin cry so miserably, Ji Yu couldn’t just stand by idly. She had no choice but to get out of the car and ask what was going on.

Feng Qinqin’s face was awash in tears, and when she saw Ji Yu, she instinctively tried to turn away.

"I just saw everything. When did you two become a thing? And why do you avoid me when you see me? This is something you could have told me. Do you think I would oppose the two of you?"

Now that she had seen it, there was no denying how strange it all seemed.

Feng Qinqin rushed forward and hugged Ji Yu, crying her heart out. "Yuyu, I never want to have anything to do with him again. If he doesn’t like me, then I won’t like him anymore either."

Feelings are only sweet when they’re mutual. Situations like this naturally leave a bitter taste.

Ji Yu didn’t know what to say. She mainly didn’t understand what had happened between the two of them to cause things to suddenly turn out this way.

"Let’s not talk about anything else for now. Let’s go to my place and discuss this properly. At the very least, you should tell me what’s going on."

These two seemingly unrelated people—how did they end up entangled together?

Ji Yu couldn’t make sense of it at all. And judging by Ji Yuanzhou’s demeanor, it wasn’t as if he had no feelings at all—he just found certain things too difficult to put into words.

Feng Qinqin obediently followed Ji Yu back to her room. Ji Yuanzhou tried to go after them, but Gu Qixiao blocked his way. "Since you’ve already made your decision, why continue with actions that give the other person false hope?"

Wouldn’t that only make things even more unbearable?

This time, Ji Yuanzhou didn’t know how to defend himself. Perhaps their encounter had been a mistake from the very beginning. That night, after getting drunk, he hadn’t anticipated things would end up this way.

"Yu will handle this."

Ji Yuanzhou didn’t say a word, sitting down on the nearby sofa.

After a while, seeing that Gu Qixiao still had no intention of leaving, he couldn’t help but feel a bit exasperated. "Why are you still here?" freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

"I’m waiting for Yu to finish dealing with Feng Qinqin’s situation. I’m worried about her safety. Old Master Lin is already completely out of options. If, by chance, he tries something aggressive and resorts to kidnapping, what am I supposed to do?"

He was concerned about everything around Ji Yu.

Ji Yuanzhou frowned. Recently, the Lin family had indeed been making moves, constantly threatening them. But how could they possibly give up Ji Yu over such matters?

"Whatever they dare to do next, Old Master Lin’s life won’t be spared."

Given Old Master Lin’s current condition, even if a kidney donor were found, his physical state made it unlikely he’d survive for long. Why continue to torment others?

"Some people cling to life and death matters with extraordinary obsession." Gu Qixiao sighed, finding Old Master Lin’s behavior strangely incomprehensible.

How could someone hold such a fanatical attachment to questions of life and death?

Meanwhile, Ji Yu and Feng Qinqin ignored their conversation entirely, waiting until Feng Qinqin had cried herself out to broach the topic of Ji Yuanzhou.

"Yuyu, I’m sorry. I know you’ve been incredibly busy lately, and now you have to deal with my problems on top of everything. Maybe I shouldn’t have told you."

She also knew the Lin family was tough to deal with and that the Ji family’s predicament was their doing.

Ji Yu sighed. "We’re best friends. These things are important to me too, so don’t ever think of yourself as a burden."

She pulled Feng Qinqin aside, hoping the girl could ease her mental burden. After all, everyone struggles with feelings from time to time.

"I really do like Ji Yuanzhou, but you’ve probably noticed—he doesn’t like me. To him, I’m probably just the redundant one."

At the thought of this, her eyes couldn’t help reddening again, as though this situation were unbearable.

"Yuyu, I don’t even know what to say anymore. I’m completely disappointed in him. I don’t need you to mediate anything."

Some things simply aren’t meant to be, and forcing them would only make things worse. It’s better to face reality and stop prolonging the pain.

"From what I’ve seen, my brother’s feelings for you may not be entirely absent."

Otherwise, Ji Yuanzhou wouldn’t have been so flustered just now.
