Oops, I had a ONS With My Secret Ex-husband
Chapter 67: No Good Stuff

Chapter 67: Chapter 67: No Good Stuff

Gu Qixiao paused for a moment, unsure whether to feel happy or to say something else.

However, seeing Ji Yu being so close to Ji Yuanzhou, he couldn’t help but feel extremely displeased.

"Is it possible you misunderstood something? Maybe you two can talk and clear up the misunderstanding."

Ji Yu gave Gu Qixiao a half-smile, recalling their less-than-friendly conversations in the past. Suddenly, she found his current demeanor somewhat baffling.

"No need to explain. I’m crystal clear about what he’s done. He’s been quite generous to his little lover."

Isn’t he still guarding her right now?

Ji Yu didn’t spell it out directly, but the sarcasm in her eyes was impossible to hide.

Gu Qixiao inwardly cursed that man for being so despicable, not even cherishing a wife like her. "Still, you should settle the matter of your marriage first before saying anything else, especially since you also have..."

"Stop." She didn’t want to hear anything about the child.

Yet Ji Yu also had no intention of discussing this marriage further.

"I just think, if you don’t want this child, you don’t have to keep it. After all, you said your husband is a scumbag..."

Before he could finish, he was met with Ji Yu rolling her eyes. "Yes, you’re absolutely right. He’s a real scumbag. But this matter has nothing to do with you. We’ve already divorced long ago."

She didn’t even know what to say to her ex-husband at this point. Recently, Gu Qixiao had been acting unusually foolish.

Thankfully, she hadn’t made this clear earlier, or things might have been even more awkward.

Gu Qixiao was briefly stunned, his mind overwhelmed with the fact that Ji Yu was already divorced.

"D-Divorced?" He sounded a little agitated, his voice even cracking slightly.

He seemed genuinely shocked by this revelation.

"What’s wrong? Are you happy about my divorce?" Ji Yu looked at his now-upturned lips in exasperation, unsure what kind of performance this was supposed to be.

But deep inside, Gu Qixiao couldn’t contain his joy.

He had been dwelling on this matter for a long time. Now that Ji Yu admitted it herself, there was no describing how he felt.

"That’s not what I meant. I just think it’s a shame about the child."

Ji Yu glanced away from him. "Brother, let’s go home."

She didn’t want to waste time on a fool like him.

Gu Qixiao seemed momentarily frozen, clearly lost in some thoughts.

Ji Yu pulled the still-stiff Ji Yuanzhou into the car. Judging by his expression, she figured he had just heard about the divorce and was thoroughly shocked.

"Yu, are you pregnant?"

After a long silence, Ji Yuanzhou finally regained his voice.

The look in his eyes as he stared at Ji Yu was filled with curiosity, as if trying to understand how things had come to this.

Ji Yu nodded. "I wasn’t planning to hide it from you all. I just hadn’t decided whether or not to keep the baby."

Ji Yuanzhou didn’t know how to express the emotions brewing within him, but after thinking it over, her pregnancy wasn’t all that surprising.

After all, it hadn’t been that long since the divorce.

"Yu, are you planning to keep this child?" He knew that Ji Yu wouldn’t talk about it unless she had already made up her mind.

"Yes, even if this child’s timing isn’t ideal, it’s still a life. I can’t just casually get rid of it."

Ji Yu had thought about it for a long time. Now, she felt that since this child had come into her life, maybe it was destiny.

On the way home, Ji Yuanzhou remained silent, appearing as if deeply affected.

Even after they arrived home, he seemed to be grappling with the news.

"Yu, what’s wrong with your brother?"

"Maybe he encountered something earlier and is still processing it," Ji Yu replied, unsure how to explain. In any case, now that the words were out, it was up to him to come around on his own.

Ji Yuanzhou didn’t know what to say about the situation.

However, the way he looked at Ji Yu’s belly became increasingly complicated, to the point that even the Ji family parents noticed.

"Yu, are you feeling unwell in any way?"

Ji Yu shook her head. "No, it’s nothing. I’m just pregnant."

Now that everything was out in the open, there was no need to hide it from her parents. As she spoke about it, a glimmer of light appeared in her eyes.

To her, this child was like an angel.

"What? Yu, you’re pregnant?"

The Ji family parents were equally shocked but quickly came to terms with it.

"No wonder you’ve seemed a little off lately. So it’s this little one causing trouble. But don’t worry about anything. If you want to keep the child, our family can provide for you."

They were fully supportive of Ji Yu’s decision.

Even if this child didn’t have a father, they would still shower it with love as a family.

"Thank you for understanding, Mom and Dad." Ji Yu had been somewhat conflicted about breaking the news, worried her parents might have objections to the child.

But seeing how easily they accepted it brought her immense relief. She resolved to raise and educate the child well, without relying on any help from Gu Qixiao.

The whole family was thrilled about the baby, but Ji Yuanzhou remained the exception, grappling with a storm of complicated emotions regarding the little life.

"Brother, it’s Dad’s birthday today. At least try to be happy."

Ji Yu smiled at Ji Yuanzhou.

Realizing that his expression might have been too grim, Ji Yuanzhou quickly came to his senses. Even Ji Yu and the others had noticed his peculiar reaction.

"I’m fine." Ji Yuanzhou finally managed a smile. Although he couldn’t fully accept the situation yet, he chose to support Ji Yu regardless.

"Yu, don’t worry. I’ll take good care of you and the child."

The Ji family parents assumed he was speaking purely out of sibling affection, but Ji Yu knew better. She could see that Ji Yuanzhou had other feelings buried within.

She wasn’t sure what emotions lay behind his words.

"Thank you, brother." But she knew their relationship would always be one of siblings.

She didn’t say it outright, but her gaze conveyed everything.

As for Gu Qixiao, Ji Yu had already started treating him like an ordinary person.

Although she was still irritated by his earlier remark about not wanting the child.

That night, she couldn’t help but dwell on the matter.

"Baby, even though your daddy doesn’t know you’re his child, what he said was really too much."

She was furious about it but found herself powerless. Was she supposed to point at Gu Qixiao’s head and declare, "This child is yours"?

Ji Yu couldn’t do that, nor would she.

Unbeknownst to her, Gu Qixiao, after hearing her admission of their divorce, spent the entire night sleepless, agonizing over how to win back her favor the next time they met.
