Oops, I had a ONS With My Secret Ex-husband-Chapter 494: Indifferent Mind

Ji Yu had no particular thoughts about the words she said to him. The things he had done before had already exhausted any goodwill she had toward him.

"Jiang Huai, a person must still be reasonable. If not for your existence, do you think I would have ended up like this? We’ve already settled the score for the things in the past. What you’re doing now is only hurting me."

She was always very clear when it came to matters like this.

She would never let others hurt her like this without reacting.

Their relationship was originally a full stop, but he insisted on dragging it into an ellipsis.

This was a problem he had to resolve himself.

"Do you think it’s so easy to settle things between us? From the moment you appeared by my side, this was already doomed to be something that can never be explained clearly."

He reached out his hand to touch Ji Yu’s forehead, wanting to check if she still had a fever, but Ji Yu immediately avoided him.

"I have no interest in the things you’re saying. To me, everything you’ve done is a waste of time. Put it another way, even if I were to die right here, I wouldn’t want to see you again."

Ji Yu’s gaze was so resolute.

To the point that Jiang Huai became somewhat unhinged at that moment.

"What’s so good about him that makes you treat me like this? And besides, the things you’re saying are hard for me to accept."

He was about to say more.

But a bodyguard interrupted their conversation.

"Sir, someone’s located our position and has already landed on the island. What should we do next?"

The only people who could track them down at a time like this were either someone he knew well or Gu Qixiao.

Suddenly, he had a brilliant idea.

If Gu Qixiao were to die here, wouldn’t Ji Yu stop being concerned about him?

"Yu, you’re mine." He gave Ji Yu a deep, meaningful look, then turned and left the room.

This action left Ji Yu feeling utterly bewildered. She had a vague and foggy sense of the situation, not understanding what he really meant.

"Who would come to the island at this time?" She suddenly had a sinking feeling, along with a faint longing deep in her heart.

She didn’t even know who she was yearning for, but that feeling was crystal clear.

Meanwhile, Gu Qixiao saw no need for pretense anymore.

He had come to find Ji Yu and bring her back.

He had regretted for far too long. This time, he absolutely had to bring her back. No matter what would become of their relationship, he couldn’t let her continue to be treated this way.

Gu Qixiao didn’t even fully understand what had come over him. He only knew that the current situation needed a resolution.

Lin Zhiyuan, seeing his somewhat dazed state, grew worried that Gu Qixiao might falter at the critical moment.

"President Gu, if you’re not feeling well, speak up. Don’t forget the drug is still affecting your system. If anything happens to you, Yu would be devastated."

"But she’s already forgotten me. Even if something happened to me, she wouldn’t care, right?" Gu Qixiao was firm in this belief.

"That’s just temporary. You must know—she wouldn’t have tested the drug for you if she truly didn’t care about you."

Lin Zhiyuan sometimes envied the bond they shared. He’d never experienced such sincere emotion himself.

Seeing the two of them together always gave him a sense that the world still harbored something truly beautiful.

He had lost count of how many times he’d thought about Ji Yu.

"If something really happens to you, the shock might trigger her memory. It would be a catastrophe then, so you absolutely cannot let anything happen to yourself."

This was a consensus they had tentatively reached.

Initially, Jiang Huai had refrained from harming Gu Qixiao for exactly this reason.

But now that Ji Yu was in captivity, he could very well secretly kill Gu Qixiao and pretend it never happened.

Lin Zhiyuan grew uneasy at the thought, fearing they might unleash chaos in the end.

Gu Qixiao, however, didn’t care about his own life. His sole focus was on when Ji Yu would stay by his side.

"Gu Qixiao, you sure got here quickly. But even if you’ve come, it makes no difference. I won’t let you take Yu away."

Jiang Huai still wore that unfamiliar face. Thinking of the things he had done in the past, Gu Qixiao couldn’t help but feel a shiver of disgust.

"Do you think wearing someone else’s face makes your so-called affection meaningful?"

"My feelings for Yu are none of your business to judge. Besides, wearing this face is merely for her sake. If she likes it, then so be it." Jiang Huai touched his face, showing no particular emotion.

To him, his face had always been meaningless.

He enjoyed changing faces to suit his mood. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

If not for his exceptional skills, he might have gotten into serious trouble by now.

"Who do you think you are?"

When he said this, his tone was sharp and straightforward.

Gu Qixiao stared coldly at him, long accustomed to such situations.

"You’ll soon find out exactly who I am."

Gu Qixiao’s men immediately stepped forward, surrounding Jiang Huai and the entire villa.

"Hand over Yu. This is your last chance."

His demeanor was ice-cold. After all, they were essentially cut from the same cloth, so Jiang Huai wasn’t particularly surprised by the turn of events.

"You’ve finally revealed your true colors. Do you think if Yu sees you acting like this, she’ll still adore you?"

"I haven’t done anything wrong. Sparing your life was my biggest mistake. Do you think you’re the same as me?" Gu Qixiao, at the very least, wouldn’t treat human lives as trivial.

"Is that so? If you put it that way, I’d have to disagree. I really should let Yu see your current self—you’re probably nothing like the man she remembers."

Gu Qixiao wasn’t entirely sure if Ji Yu had ever witnessed this side of him before. If not, would she truly despise him?

But this time, he had no other options.

"It’s been a long time since someone made me this angry. Jiang Huai, you really are capable."

Though this capability seemed exclusively reserved for provoking him.

As the tension escalated.

Neither side showed any intention of backing down, leaving Lin Zhiyuan increasingly anxious.

"Jiang Huai, where exactly have you taken my mother?"

It had been far too long since he’d last seen the matriarch, and his worry began to grow unbearable. He feared the worst possible outcome.
