Chapter 375: Chapter 375

She trusted Gu Qixiao’s judgment.

"I just feel like you should have some sense of jealousy. Yu, I want to see what you look like when you’re jealous over me." His gaze toward Ji Yu was incredibly sincere, hoping she wouldn’t be muddled on this matter.

Ji Yu also understood that Gu Qixiao sometimes might lack a sense of security.

"We’re about to get married, and you’re still worrying about things . Gu Qixiao, you’re very important to me. I’ll take good care of your feelings. I could never have any stray thoughts. When you’re close to someone, I care too."

It’s just that, sometimes, there’s no need to be overly particular.

Seeing Ji Yu suddenly made him feel at ease.

Afterward, he realized he might have been making a fuss out of nothing. How could he think Ji Yu didn’t care about him at this moment?

"You don’t need to think that what you’re doing is wrong. We’re already so familiar with each other; don’t I know how you think?"

She was too aware of Gu Qixiao’s character, so she had no reason to suspect anything regarding this matter.

Gu Qixiao, seeing Ji Yu’s firm stance on this, did not continue saying anything else.

He probably understood deep down that his thoughts were misguided.

"Don’t worry. Once I’ve dealt with Hu Qianqian’s issue, I’ll let you know immediately." Once it’s time to resolve Hu Qianqian, it would be up to Gu Qixiao to decide how.

It was at this moment Hong sent a message that the matter Ji Yu had previously asked him to investigate finally had some leads.

After seeing the message, Ji Yu didn’t overthink. She quickly got up and prepared to check it out.

"I’ll go with you. I don’t feel comfortable letting you go out alone at night." His concern for Ji Yu was evident.

She was just heading out to see what was going on, and since Gu Qixiao insisted, she naturally couldn’t refuse.

When they arrived, Hong seemed visibly uneasy. His relationship with Gu Qixiao had never been good, and seeing Gu Qixiao now made him even more irritable.

"You two still haven’t patched things up?" However, the most critical matter was locating the other party before addressing personal issues.

"Let’s focus on business first. Your matters can be dealt with later," Ji Yu responded seriously, knowing that resolving the situation behind the scenes was paramount.

Hong restrained his temper, realizing Ji Yu was prioritizing this case. "I just investigated—she’s currently in Country A. Judging by the situation, it seems like she has been collaborating with certain people, which explains her financial resources."

It’s likely there are many who want to collaborate with her.

After all, Song Xuan had been by Gu Qixiao’s side for so long. In encountering a situation , she’d certainly be familiar with all things Gu Qixiao. If someone really wanted to deal with Gu Qixiao, teaming up with Song Xuan would be much more effective than finding someone else.

Ji Yu, reviewing the recent information on Song Xuan, practically confirmed that the one sabotaging them was indeed Song Xuan.

"I just don’t understand what’s going on with Song Xuan. But since things have escalated to this point, we absolutely can’t let her off easily."

Ji Yu didn’t want any involvement with such a person.

Yet now, since the other party refused to back down, she had no choice but to resolve it first.

"Yu, since I’m the one to blame for this incident, let me handle it. I know you’re undoubtedly upset, but I fear you might get into trouble."

He didn’t want Ji Yu to face any risks regarding this matter. "I can’t rest easy about you."

Ji Yu didn’t think she could stir up anything major herself. The situation had to stem from the collaboration on the other person’s side. Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs novel⟡fire.net

"I also want to know who holds such resentment against me. After collaborating with her, the first thing they did was target me instead of you." Ji Yu was curious about this other person’s motives.

Hearing Ji Yu’s words made his emotions somewhat complicated.

Perhaps it was because past events had really impacted Gu Qixiao, creating a psychological shadow. As long as anything happened to Ji Yu, he instinctively saw it linked to other potential dangers. If something truly did go wrong, he wouldn’t know how to respond.

"I understand your thoughts, but you don’t need to worry about me . I already know exactly how to handle her."

Coincidentally, Ji Yu needed to travel for work around this time, so meeting an old friend seemed appropriate.

Ji Yu evidently didn’t feel much fear regarding the matter.

But Gu Qixiao remained quite concerned, finding an excuse to accompany her instead.

It wasn’t until they were on the plane that Ji Yu noticed something amiss.

"Why did you come with me?" She sighed, feeling a bit helpless and curious about what Gu Qixiao was up to.

Gu Qixiao seemed slightly guilty but had indeed prepared an excuse, "I’m heading over for a business deal. Coincidentally, it’s the same destination as yours."

If Ji Yu truly believed this, then she’d be a fool.

But since Gu Qixiao had already stated it, she could only agree for now.

"Just be careful when the time comes. If anything happens, don’t feel obligated. I’m doing this willingly. The most important thing is to ensure your safety."

She stared at Gu Qixiao seriously while speaking.

No one knew what lay ahead this time.

Though Gu Qixiao remained silent, his gaze already assured Ji Yu that should anything happen, he would never let her face it alone.

Ji Yu had been worried about this exact scenario, telling him not to follow her here for now. But now that Gu Qixiao had come, she could only think of alternative solutions.

When they arrived at their destination, Song Xuan’s people had already started watching them.

By now, Song Xuan had clearly shifted in attitude.

Her feelings for Gu Qixiao bordered love and hatred, so when she saw him, her expression was cold and indifferent.

"He finally came. I knew he would follow that woman Ji Yu here. This time, I’ll make him pay the price."

Why couldn’t he love her?

Hadn’t she treated Gu Qixiao well enough before?

Now that things had unfolded as they had, wouldn’t Gu Qixiao consider her feelings?

Her heart was aching painfully, yet she still carried herself with a strong façade.

"Gu Qixiao, what do you think you are? Someday, I’ll make you regret everything."
