Oops, I had a ONS With My Secret Ex-husband -
Chapter 69 Prayer
Chapter 69: Chapter 69 Prayer
She looked at Gu Qixiao with a pleading gaze, hoping he could forget about the past and stay by her side.
But all Gu Qixiao gave her was resignation, "Song Xuan, feelings cannot be forced. I’ve never disliked you for your looks, but I will never like you either."
To him, Song Xuan would always be a responsibility, not a lover.
He had lost interest in the current situation and only hoped that Song Xuan would wake up soon.
"It’s not because of looks? Then why are you so special to Ji Yu? Can you honestly say you don’t have any feelings for her?"
Gu Qixiao didn’t answer this question, only giving Assistant Li a look.
Understanding instantly, Assistant Li said, "Miss Song, you should rest. Being too emotional isn’t good for your wound healing."
Everyone treated her with politeness, but there wasn’t a trace of love.
At that moment, the emotions piled up in Song Xuan’s heart erupted completely.
Everyone seemed displeasing to her; she picked up a cup and hurled it at Assistant Li, and he narrowly dodged it, else his head would have been cut open today.
He didn’t dare linger any longer and could only let Song Xuan cool down on her own, "Miss Song, please call if you need anything."
After saying this, he followed Gu Qixiao out of the room, thinking that he must at least protect his life first.
They left hurriedly, leaving Song Xuan crying hysterically in the room.
After getting in the car, Gu Qixiao remained composed. He was clear about his own feelings, and at the very least, he couldn’t let go of Ji Yu yet.
"Ji Yu..."
He recited Ji Yu’s name, thinking of her words about being single.
Since she was single, didn’t he have the right to pursue her?
"President Gu, are you heading back to the company or...?"
"Back to the company. Leave the household matters to the nanny for now, and as for the hospital matters, have the caregiver handle them." His meaning was clear, and Assistant Li sighed in relief, knowing he didn’t need to deal with Song Xuan’s affairs anymore.
But Assistant Li never imagined.
Gu Qixiao was actually thinking of pursuing Ji Yu.
With a somewhat complex expression, he stood holding a bouquet of roses at the entrance of the hospital, enduring countless glances from passersby.
"Is Doctor Ji not here today?" Unable to withstand the gazes any longer, he approached the cleaning lady at the entrance for information.
The lady glanced at Assistant Li in surprise, "Young man, you’re looking for our Doctor Ji? I advise you to go back quickly. Have you seen the kind of people around her? You can’t compete with them."
The lady was kind, and Assistant Li’s smile almost faltered.
"I’m delivering for someone else." He could only extricate himself tactfully.
"Oh, Doctor Ji is right behind you."
Ji Yu looked at Assistant Li with some familiarity, "Are you here to see me for something?"
Especially since he was holding roses, it might seem to others there was something between them.
"President Gu asked me to deliver these, with a letter from him inside." Assistant Li was mortified but maintained a professional smile, hoping to complete this daunting task quickly.
Ji Yu raised an eyebrow, a hint of confusion on her delicate face, "Your President Gu sent these?"
For Gu Qixiao to send such things, something must be wrong with his head?
Ji Yu was skeptical but also curious about what Gu Qixiao wanted from her.
"Tell your President Gu I’ve completed what I promised him before, and there’s no need for anything else."
She knew Gu Qixiao had no idea whose child she was carrying, but what he said yesterday still infuriated Ji Yu.
Assistant Li was having a hard time holding it together, "Isn’t it possible that our President Gu wants to pursue you?"
He had never seen Gu Qixiao so attentive to anyone.
His gaze swept over Ji Yu’s face, and he suddenly understood why their President would fall for her. Such a beauty could easily confuse anyone, and no wonder Song Xuan felt so threatened.
"Does everyone in your company like to joke around?"
Ji Yu wasn’t fond of such matters and didn’t think Gu Qixiao harbored such feelings.
"It’s quite good that your President doesn’t think I’m scheming, let alone pursue me, because he doesn’t have any feelings for me."
If Gu Qixiao really had such intentions, he was remarkably discreet in not letting her, the person involved, notice.
"You might have some misunderstandings, but our President really harbors no such feelings."
Ji Yu didn’t want to get caught up in these matters, "Since you said your President has such feelings, let him tell me in person. Take the flowers back."
With that, Ji Yu turned to leave, completely uninterested in dealing with these issues.
Assistant Li was left holding the flowers, unsure of what to do, and could only return to explain the situation to Gu Qixiao.
He thought Gu Qixiao would be quite angry, but to his surprise, Gu Qixiao calmly accepted the criticism.
"She’s right; it does seem a bit insincere this way."
Gu Qixiao accepted the criticism.
He also knew Ji Yu’s temper could indeed be difficult at times.
"I’ll go myself tomorrow."
He was prepared to pursue Ji Yu and naturally wouldn’t use such simple tactics.
Assistant Li was a bit confused, "President Gu, your sudden interest in Miss Ji might make her suspicious of your intentions."
He noted that previously, Gu Qixiao didn’t seem to show any liking.
Not just Assistant Li, even Gu Qixiao wasn’t sure when he started liking Ji Yu.
It might have been when he saw Ji Yu teaching the kids to play piano at the orphanage...
Recalling that scene, Gu Qixiao couldn’t help but smile; it was a memory he would cherish forever.
"You don’t need to worry about this. I don’t need to report who I pursue. Just remember to be courteous to Yu in the future."
Assistant Li’s mouth twitched, wondering if their President knew he had already become so familiar that he was calling Doctor Ji "Yu."
Nevertheless, Gu Qixiao was quite calm, and the next day, he personally waited for Ji Yu downstairs at the hospital.
Upon seeing Ji Yu, he even adjusted his attire deliberately.
"Doctor Ji."
Hearing him address her as Doctor Ji, Assistant Li suddenly felt enlightened. Indeed, their President would only dare to call her "Yu" in private; when meeting in person, he still addressed her as Doctor Ji.
"What are you doing here?" Ji Yu questioned upon seeing him, feeling both puzzled and a bit resentful.
She hadn’t forgotten what he said last time and didn’t wish to deal with him now.
"I came to see you, and I brought the flowers that I couldn’t deliver yesterday. Since I’m handing them in person today, you surely won’t refuse, right?"
