Oops, I had a ONS With My Secret Ex-husband
Chapter 71 Disdain

Chapter 71: Chapter 71 Disdain

Gu Qixiao stared at Ji Yu in disbelief, "So in your heart, this is the kind of person I am?"

His expression looked somewhat wounded, as if this incident had dealt him a significant blow.

Ji Yu sighed helplessly, unsure of what Zhang Wei was up to this time. "I just wanted to tell President Gu that I don’t harbor any improper feelings, and you don’t need to worry about this matter anymore."

They couldn’t keep entangling like this.

Was there trouble between him and his little girlfriend?

"I don’t like using other people’s leftovers, even when it comes to men."

Before Gu Qixiao could react to the meaning of that sentence, Ji Yu had already ordered the driver to leave.

Leaving Gu Qixiao standing alone in the swirling wind.

He began to wonder if Ji Yu had already found out about his previous marriage.

But hardly anyone knew about that — how had Ji Yu gotten this information?

"President Gu, shall we return to the office?"

The driver looked at Gu Qixiao’s expression and couldn’t help but feel a bit worried.

What could a driver do when the boss was suffering from heartbreak?

Of course, the answer was to act as if they hadn’t seen anything.

"She definitely likes me! That’s why she went to such lengths to investigate me. It has to be that."

Clearly, everyone underestimated Gu Qixiao’s ability to comfort himself. Upon hearing this, the driver wanted to voice his skepticism but restrained himself after noticing Gu Qixiao’s expression.

Meanwhile, Ji Yu’s situation was equally awkward.

She had no intention of letting anyone see what had happened. Yet this time, Lu Xingchen happened to be present.

"Looks like our Yu is really in high demand."

He had mentioned this to Ji Yu before, and seeing her popularity now worried him somewhat.

"It’s all bad luck." She rubbed her temples tiredly.

She just hoped Gu Qixiao’s thoughts would pass quickly.

Although Gu Qixiao wasn’t a bad person, he was definitely not an ideal match.

"There’s nothing between me and him. It’s just that some things are easy to misunderstand."

She chose to speak tactfully; otherwise, explaining things later could be complicated.

Gu Qixiao had a knack for causing trouble.

Ji Yu had become numb to situations like this and just wanted Lu Xingchen not to misunderstand.

"Don’t worry. I can tell you don’t have feelings for Gu Qixiao. I’m just curious how you two got entangled together."

This kind of situation would make anyone surprised.

Neither mentioned the topic again, but Ji Yu picked at her meal absently, turning over how she couldn’t allow things to develop further like this.

Who knew what Gu Qixiao’s next move would be?

So when she returned home that evening, she decisively blocked all of Gu Qixiao’s contact information, even including Assistant Li.

As a result, the next day, when Gu Qixiao tried to contact Ji Yu, he found her unreachable.

"President Gu, maybe Doctor Ji has other matters to attend to?"

Assistant Li hurriedly tried to smooth things over; otherwise, the ones taking the blame would be the staff.

No one could stop the boss from pursuing romance, but the relationship hadn’t even started, and the situation was already overly intense.

"You try calling her."

However, getting blocked wasn’t a new experience for him; Ji Yu had done this before.

So having it happen again wasn’t particularly surprising.

"Forget it. Since she doesn’t want to answer my calls, I’ll find another way."

No matter what, Ji Yu wouldn’t be able to fully escape him.

But Ji Yu was indeed very busy this time. Seeing the face of a patient brought in, her expression grew serious.

"Why did you wait so long to bring him in? A child with a weak immune system is at high risk for infection."

Looking at the severity of the wounds on the child’s face, Ji Yu’s eyes revealed her concern. She wished the parents would display some basic knowledge.

"I don’t know what happened. We already took him to the hospital before, and the doctor didn’t say anything about it deteriorating."

Their cluelessness irritated Ji Yu deeply.

"Go sign the surgical consent form and the responsibility waiver first. I’ll study the best approach for the child’s treatment."

This time, when Ji Yu saw Gu Qixiao, she didn’t even greet him.

Gu Qixiao tactfully stayed silent.

It was his first time seeing Ji Yu so immersed in her work, with such a serious attitude.

Unlike the previous cases he had witnessed, the child’s wounds were still fresh. In that sense, the child was somewhat fortunate.

"Didn’t you say your surgeries were booked far in advance?"

"But this is a child." Ji Yu’s expression didn’t waver.

Her response was natural and heartfelt.

This child would grow up facing ridicule because of their face, and Ji Yu couldn’t bring herself to ignore that.

"If you don’t have other business, don’t stand in the way here."

"Can I observe your surgery process? I can offer financial support to help more families like this." He understood that not everyone could afford surgery.

Ji Yu was surprised but recognized that this project could greatly benefit families like these.

"Alright."

She didn’t refuse, leaving Gu Qixiao both baffled and impressed. He had gained a new understanding of her.

It seemed that no matter the circumstances, when Ji Yu faced her professional duties, she would focus completely, disregarding external opinions.

As time ticked away, Ji Yu still hadn’t found the optimal plan.

The family was growing restless. "Didn’t they say this doctor has the most confidence in surgeries like this? Why hasn’t she started yet?"

They were already at their wit’s end and pinned their hopes on Ji Yu.

But Ji Yu wasn’t a miracle worker. No matter how skilled, she needed time to prepare and plan thoroughly.

"Our Doctor Ji needs some time to prepare as well. We’ll do our utmost to preserve your child’s facial structure and help him recover as much as possible."

They had dealt with similar situations before and knew how to reassure families.

Yet, the family still worried that Ji Yu was too young, doubting whether the surgery could succeed.

"Please rest assured. When it comes to this type of surgery, Doctor Ji is second to none."

They tried their best to reassure them.

Showing Ji Yu’s credentials finally calmed the family somewhat.

Standing off to the side, Gu Qixiao observed Ji Yu and suddenly felt she was truly admirable.

Perhaps what he had done earlier had indeed disturbed Ji Yu.

"The plan is ready now. Please take a look and see if you believe it’s appropriate. Since it’s for a child, the surgery might present elevated risks."
