Oops, I had a ONS With My Secret Ex-husband
Chapter 97 Apology

Chapter 97: Chapter 97 Apology

Gu Qixiao took this matter very seriously.

"I can apologize for everything I did wrong before, but it won’t stop me from pursuing Ji Yu."

His gaze toward Ji Yu carried a hint of longing.

This expression made Feng Qinqin feel a little uncomfortable.

"You two aren’t even together yet. What’s with those eyes of yours?"

Anyone who didn’t know better would think they had already been together for a long time.

Feng Qinqin didn’t even know how to ridicule Gu Qixiao properly.

"Yuyu, this matter is still your decision to make. No matter what you decide, I will support you."

As it stands, as long as Gu Qixiao doesn’t have any issues with his character, it’s not impossible for them to be together.

"Let’s eat first." Ji Yu didn’t want to discuss this topic.

However, perhaps out of guilt, Gu Qixiao showed extra care toward Feng Qinqin.

But Feng Qinqin could sense Gu Qixiao’s politeness at his core; only when he looked at Ji Yu did his gaze carry warmth.

"Alright, I can see it clearly now. I’m just a bit unnecessary here today."

Feng Qinqin looked at Ji Yu with a hint of grievance but also hoped her close friend could find a good partner.

At the very least, someone who absolutely wouldn’t bully her.

Ji Yu chuckled, "You’re never unnecessary."

For a moment, Gu Qixiao actually found himself envying Feng Qinqin.

At the very least, she could receive Ji Yu’s uniquely focused attention.

After this meal, Feng Qinqin’s perception of Gu Qixiao improved slightly.

Especially since he even offered to take the two of them home.

[Yuyu, I have to say, I think he’s not too bad. If you’re interested, you could consider accepting him.]

Ji Yu read the message on her phone and felt unsure about how to respond.

However, Gu Qixiao was indeed not a bad person.

"Are you really not planning to go to the orphanage with me tomorrow?"

Gu Qixiao still hoped Ji Yu could accompany him.

"I have some other things to take care of. Let’s schedule a time together next time."

However, after Ji Yu returned home, she couldn’t help but wonder why Gu Qixiao was going to the orphanage tomorrow, and why the orphanage’s director wanted her to give him the gifts.

After thinking for a long time, Ji Yu still couldn’t figure it out.

She simply decided to rest and focus on the next day’s plans.

The next day, Ji Yu immediately showed the plan to Sun Yongxin.

"This is how the recovery is projected to look. You can decide whether you accept it or not. Of course, adjustments can still be made."

Looking at the face identical to the one he used to have, Sun Yongxin nodded quickly, "I just want this face. Thank you, Doctor Ji."

He didn’t even know what to say.

The situation in front of him made him so emotionally stirred that it was hard to contain himself.

"You don’t need to be too emotional. This is one of the most fundamental things. I’ll do my best to help you recover, so don’t feel pressured."

With the plan arranged, the surgery proceeded much more smoothly.

After the surgery ended, Sun Yongxin was already eager with excitement.

"You absolutely must remember not to touch the wound carelessly. During this period, you’ll be staying in the hospital with professional caregivers. Of course, you can also have your family accompany you, though caregiver services aren’t cheap."

Ji Yu gave the most optimal recommendation.

But Sun Yongxin insisted on hiring a caregiver.

He didn’t even want to contact his family.

Ji Yu understood that some people are just naturally like this, so she simply let it go and hoped he would recover as expected afterward.

Meanwhile, Gu Qixiao had already arrived at the orphanage.

The orphanage’s director had a pretty deep impression of him.

"Mr. Gu, it’s so kind of you to come in person. In truth, the children’s living conditions have improved significantly. I’m already very grateful."

The arrangements Gu Qixiao made in the past had indeed been very impactful.

"I heard a new child recently came to the orphanage and seems to have congenital heart disease?"

Such cases are quite common in orphanages.

For children with conditions like these, most don’t live very long.

"Yes, this child was abandoned at the orphanage’s doorstep at just a year and a half old. The situation isn’t very promising."

The director spoke about this matter with a tinge of helplessness.

There was only so much they could do; all they could hope was that this child could pull through.

"I contacted a hospital earlier. They said the surgery can be done for free, so at least there’s a chance. Please take the child there to give it a try."

At least there was a chance to survive.

The director was a bit shocked. "No cost?"

"Yes, this is all arranged through collaboration with a charitable organization. I secured a slot through someone I know. Rest assured, it’s entirely legitimate."

With Gu Qixiao’s abilities, it wasn’t surprising that he could accomplish something like this.

The director’s impression of Gu Qixiao deepened once again.

"Mr. Gu, earlier you brought up something I couldn’t quite understand — are you pursuing Yu?" She hadn’t forgotten this matter.

When Ji Yu’s name was mentioned, Gu Qixiao’s brows softened with a trace of warmth. "I am indeed pursuing her. Even if nothing has come of it yet, eventually we’ll be together."

He was very confident about their future.

The director hesitated, as though she had something she wanted to say.

"I know about her past, and I accept it fully."

To Gu Qixiao, these things all meant the same.

"Mr. Gu, you really are quite remarkable."

The director still wasn’t sure how to comment on the matter.

She just hoped Ji Yu could find happiness in the future.

"Since you’ve already mentioned you’re pursuing Yu, could I trouble you to tell me her likes or anything she particularly favors?"

He had always wanted to understand Ji Yu’s preferences, but since the two hadn’t interacted for long, he hadn’t had much opportunity to learn about her.

"If you ask me... well, Yu was particularly attached to a doll when she was young. However, back then she was still a child, and eventually, another kid took the doll, and it disappeared."

Thinking about it, the director felt nostalgic for the days when everyone was still there. Now, they had all grown up and no longer needed her to dwell upon these memories.

"That doll held special significance for Yu. Though the past can’t be undone, if you want to give her a gift, perhaps you could choose something like that."

Gu Qixiao thought of Ji Yu as a little girl and couldn’t help but feel a pang of heartache.

At that time, what thoughts might little Ji Yu have had?

Back then, he hadn’t been familiar with Ji Yu, but now he ought to make up for past regrets.

The director, seeing Gu Qixiao’s earnest demeanor, started to think that they might truly have a chance together in the future.

"If you truly wish to pursue Yu, all you need to do is trade sincerity for sincerity. Yu is an exceptionally kind child."

When she talked about Ji Yu, her eyes were filled with pride.
