h4Chapter 342: Chapter 342: No Reconciliation/h4

If things were resolved now, there’d surely be endless trouble down the road.

Besides, this guy had absolutely no intention of making peace.

Judging by his demeanor, it was clear he would keep stirring up trouble. Ji Yu wasn’t stupid—there was no way she’d allow him to continue with his madness unchecked.

Upon hearing Ji Yu’s words, he immediately tried to attack her, but the next moment his wrist was seized.

The officers at the police station evidently had zero tolerance for such actions. "You actually dare to strike someone right in front of us?"

They didn’t want things to escte too much, but seeing Wang Baiquan about to make a move in their presence made it clear that this wasn’t a matter that could be resolved quickly or easily.

"Since Miss Ji has made her stance clear, we’ll take him into custody first. If there’s anything further, we’ll notify Miss Ji."

Ji Yu remained ratherposed throughout the ordeal.

"Thank you for your help. I hope you give someone like him a proper lesson so he stops wreaking havoc on others."

She was already upset about the situation, and seeing him hurt Lu Xingchen only made it impossible for her to let the matter go easily.

"Are you doing this on purpose? Ji Yu, I’m sure you’re doing this deliberately. You want to see me rot in prison, don’t you?" He was visibly agitated now, using Ji Yu of being a ruthless schemer.

Yet, it had been his own decision to cause trouble right from the start. Ji Yu hadn’t nned anything against him. "If you hadn’te here, no one would’ve known about what you did. But instead, you’ve been arrogant andwless from the start. People like you shouldn’t even appear in my life."

Every time she saw him, Ji Yu felt deeply irritated. How had she wound up encountering such a repulsive person?

Even imagining further interactions with someone like him made her wonder how infuriating it could be.

Perhaps Ji Yu’s unyielding stance had agitated him even further, as he still seemed intent on making a move against her.

Truthfully, Ji Yu wouldn’t mind if he lost his cool in front of the police—it would only ensure he ended up locked away longer if he kept acting recklessly.

Of course, Ji Yu didn’t have the energy to waste on his antics anymore. She needed to check in on Lu Xingchen’s condition; after all, it was because of her that Lu Xingchen got hurt.

By now, Lu Xingchen had already calmed down and posted a message reassuring his fans on his social media ounts.

Seeing him like this made Ji Yu feel deeply guilty. "I’m so sorry, Lu Xingchen. I truly don’t understand how things ended up this way. You got hurt because of me, and I’ll make sure to make this right. Don’t worry—I promise I’llpensate you."

She stayed rtivelyposed in addressing this issue.

After hearing Ji Yu’s apology, his expression softened into a resigned smile. "Yu, there’s no need for us to talk aboutpensation or apologies like this. Whenever I see you in danger, it’s impossible for me to just stand by and do nothing."

In that moment, all logic had flown out of his mind. Regardless of who Ji Yu harbored feelings for, he couldn’t bring himself to watch her get hurt without intervening.

There were countless things he wanted to say but couldn’t.

Because he knew that if he did say them, even staying friends with Ji Yu might be impossible.

"Lu Xingchen, you truly are a wonderful person."

It was all Ji Yu could say about him. Yet she couldn’t shake the feeling that there was something unusual about Lu Xingchen—like there was something off about him at his core.

But weren’t they just friends?

Why was there this strange, peculiar tension between them?

Ji Yu couldn’t make sense of her feelings—they were too unsettling—but she didn’t know what else she could say.

"Yu, are you okay?" Gu Qixiao appeared without much hesitation.

Seeing that Ji Yu hadn’t been injured, he finally exhaled a sigh of relief.

When he first saw the news, he had already arrivedte.

Learning that Ji Yu had narrowly escaped being attacked had sent his blood running cold. Thankfully, Ji Yu hade out of it unharmed.

From his expression, Ji Yu could tell he was deeply worried about her. "Gu Qixiao, don’t worry about me; I’m fine. Honestly, I owe a lot to Mr. Lu today."

Though she didn’t quite remember this acquaintance, he had certainly shown camaraderie and loyalty.

Although Gu Qixiao saw him as a rival in love, he was genuinely grateful for his help in protecting Ji Yu.

If it hadn’t been for his presence, Ji Yu would likely have faced serious danger.

"If you ever need anything, you can alwayse to me." Gu Qixiao approached the matter with remarkable generosity.

He was deeply aware that Ji Yu meant the world to him, which made it impossible for him to stop worrying about her.

Seeing Gu Qixiao, Ji Yu smiled. "That’s right. If you ever face something insurmountable, feel free toe to me or Gu Qixiao. As for Wang Baiquan, I’ll make sure this issue is properly dealt with—I definitely won’t let a person like him continue to roam free."

Even though the two of them weren’t married yet, their chemistry together made it impossible for anyone to doubt they were a couple.

Originally, Lu Xingchen’s mood had been fine, but watching them interact now caused a faint ache in his chest.

He didn’t know how to face Ji Yu anymore; this dynamic was undeniably hard on him.

Seeing his paleplexion, Ji Yu grew concerned that his injury might be more serious than expected. She decided to have Gu Qixiao help escort him to the hospital.

But things didn’t go quite as Ji Yu anticipated.

"There’s no need. My agent is already on the way. If I go to the hospital with you, it’ll just spark unnecessary rumors."

He was trying hard to seem nonchnt, but for some reason, being around Ji Yu made it impossible to truly feel carefree. The internal struggle was agonizing.

Knowing Ji Yu’s stance, he realized that continuing to linger around would only bring her needless trouble.

"Given your condition, it’d be better for you to get checked at the hospital. I only did a quick job of bandaging you—there’s no telling if you might’ve injured your brain. Even if you leave with your agent, make sure you go to the hospital."

The brain was such a fragile part of the human body that Ji Yu couldn’t just ignore the situation.

If something serious happened, Ji Yu knew she would carry guilt for the rest of her life.

Fortunately, there didn’t seem to be any major issues in the end.

"Next time, can you give me a heads-up before pulling something like this? You have no idea just how serious everything just was." His agent was on the verge of losing his mind—he’d never encountered anything so absurd before.

When his gaze fell upon Ji Yu, there was an obviousplexity in his eyes. "Thanks for your care. We’ll be heading off now."
