h4Chapter 316: Chapter 316: Don’t Want the Awkwardness/h4

Ji Yu had made things very clear.

If he was hiding something, he should just say it quickly. If things were really as they seemed, there was no need for him to rush.

In the end, whether or not the child was his would be known once it was born.

"I’m going to rest now. I still have work tomorrow. You should rest well too. Think it over. Many things really aren’t necessary."

Ji Yu remained rtively calm about this matter.

Isn’t that what rtionships are like?

If he truly liked her, it wouldn’t be like this.

She might be a bit selfish, automatically appearing very calm when faced with someone she doesn’t have feelings for.

But in fact, many things had issues.

She didn’t really like this approach, so from the beginning, she thought it would be better to remain calm about this matter.

The next morning, when she went out, she didn’t forget to ask the olddy, "Xia Chuanhe didn’t say muchst night, did he?"

The olddy’s expression was quiteplicated. On one hand, she felt that Ji Yu’s situation was not easy, and on the other, she thought her son needed more time to find a suitable partner, leaving her conflicted about what to do.

"Yu, if you can bear it, just bear it for now. I know you might have a lot of opinions about my son, but this matter is important for both you and him."

Ji Yu understood what the olddy meant.

But aren’t matters of the heart just like this?

If you don’t love someone, you can’t make any pretenses.

She truly didn’t like him, and the decisions she made were genuine. If this continues, it will only make everyone feel awkward.

"Olddy, you’re perceptive, and you should have noticed that my behavior recently has been telling you that our situation is pretty bad."

She wants a free life, and she also wants to know what the past was like.

If she were to stay trapped in such a ce for a long time, Ji Yu would surely break apart.

The olddy really didn’t know how to continue demanding things from Ji Yu.

She knew Ji Yu had it tough, but even so, she still couldn’t bear to see her son sad.

People’s hearts are inherently biased, it seems.

"Girl, just hurry up and go to work. Nothing else is that important anymore. Take things one step at a time."

Ji Yu did not retort.

But she was also curious at work, wondering why Zhang Yuze epted her so casually.

"Zhang Yuze, I wasn’t working here for you before, right? Did you keep me because of Xia Chuanhe, or are you helping him keep some secret?"

Hearing what Ji Yu said made him a bit embarrassed.

He was considering whether he should have a proper talk with Ji Yu, but since Ji Yu had already spoken to this extent, he could only tell her the truth.

"You weren’t with me before. I knew you were famous at a young age and even had your own cosmetic surgery clinic. Everyone knew your name. If you want to know about the past, you can just search it up."

He didn’t have a deep connection with Xia Chuanhe, who knew what Xia Chuanhe’s real intentions were. Now with Ji Yu being so confused, it wasn’t proper to continue hiding things from her.

Ji Yu frowned, clearly having issues with this matter.

"So from the very beginning, was he deceiving me?"

This kind of thing really makes people ufortable.

Ji Yu always had her own thoughts about this matter, so she wasn’t surprised by his expression.

"I knew there couldn’t possibly be the kind of rtionship I remember."

Physiological rejection meant she simply couldn’t like someone like that. If she liked him, there wouldn’t be such a severe reaction of repulsion.

So Ji Yu wasn’t in a hurry and wanted to see what else this person could do. If it turned out to be intriguing, it was worth watching.

Seeing Ji Yu’s apparent interest in the matter, Zhang Yuze didn’t forget to discuss work matters with Ji Yu, "Although you weren’t with us at the start, I hope you can focus on your current position."

He didn’t wish anything bad for Ji Yu, just that she develops well.

Hearing this, Ji Yu was a bit surprised, "You seem especially interested in my matters, but I’m not dwelling too much. Since I’m here, it implies I’ve considered it well and won’t cause you any losses."

Her attitude toward this matter was always serious.

He probably didn’t expect Ji Yu to say something like that.

His expression was a bit surprised, "You don’t want to go back?"

"I do, but without rifying what’s happening, I couldn’t possibly go back. I also want to see what Xia Chuanhe intends to do. You won’t betray me, right?"

Ji Yu’s intense gaze startled him.

"Since I’ve told you all this, it means I have no such intention. You don’t need to worry about that. I won’t deceive you. Besides, I really admire your skills."

Considering Ji Yu’s current pregnancy, he couldn’t say much more.

"Since that’s the case, the two of us are now on the same team. I hope you can join me in dealing with this situation," Ji Yu said with a harmless looking smile.

But Zhang Yuze understood that Ji Yu was always like a rose with thorns, ready to prick those who would hurt her at any given problem.

"Ji Yu, sometimes I even envy you. You not only have such talent, but also such a good state of mind, it really makes people envious."

He envied Ji Yu’s life.

Ji Yu also envied his ability to remember everything.

"My good state of mindes from knowing that even if I break down now, there’s nothing I can do to remember the past. I might as well calm down and see what he wants to do. Otherwise, breaking down is pointless."

She had long understood this principle, so she wouldn’t allow herself to fall apart at this time.

"If I could remember everything like you, maybe I wouldn’t be like this either."

Zhang Yuze suddenly found himself speechless. Facing someone like Ji Yu truly required time to understand her, but this Ji Yu was also struggling.
