<h4>Chapter 206: Chapter 206 Treatment</h4>


    The next day, he didn’t bother with Song Xuan’s matter and went directly to Ji Yu’s house.


    Ji Yu’s condition had improved significantly; herplexion looked much better.


    However, the issues in her heart still made her feel uneasy.


    She didn’t understand why things had turned out this way.


    "Yu, you don’t have to me yourself too much. This matter wasn’t your fault, to begin with. Back then, you made that choice to save someone."


    Madam Ji understood that Ji Yu’s sense of morality was sometimes too strong, binding her within an unforgiving box.


    "But ultimately, I’m still the culprit behind all of this. Without me, they wouldn’t have seeded in sending that person over." Ji Yu had never deceived herself.


    She had been dwelling on this issue previously, which led to her decision to resolve it once and for all.


    But why, in the end, did the person she cared about most betray her?


    She might not me Gu Qixiao, but she could never absolve herself.


    "I’m just upset with myself for agreeing to this matter so easily back then."


    Even though things had turned out so disastrously, she still remained unresponsive.


    "Yu, the way you’re punishing yourself like this—if Gu saw you, he’d definitely feel heartbroken."


    Madam Ji knew that it hadn’t been easy for the two of them to be together. Now that something like this had happened, it needed to be resolved properly; neither should avoid the problem.


    So when she saw Gu Qixiao arrive, she simply left, giving them the space to talk things through.


    In her heart, she still hoped Ji Yu coulde to terms with this. After all, there had been no other choice in this matter.


    Gu Qixiao was visibly nervous, unsure of how to retrieve the situation. At this point, their meetings only felt awkward.


    How could such circumstances possibly leave anyone feeling at ease?


    "If you have something to say, just say it. I’m not angry."


    She meant what she said—she wouldn’t fault him for what he had done. Her me rested solely with herself.


    "Yu, I hope you won’t punish yourself like this. Whatever is between us can be discussed properly."


    Even if things had reached the point of no return, they ought to at least talk it out before deciding what’s next.


    "I’ve always believed you’re an excellent doctor. The surgeries you’ve performed have instilled confidence in countless patients. But this particr surgery has left you unsettled, so I hope you can ce the me for this on me."


    He would rather see her get angry at him than watch her suffer alone at home.


    Ji Yu sighed helplessly, "How could I possiblysh out at you for no reason?"


    The two of them could talk things over; there was no need for it to be like this.


    "What I mean is, don’t me yourself. This matter is fundamentally my fault."


    Back when he agreed to it, he had already considered this oue.


    More than anything, he wanted Ji Yu to yell at him, even hit him if necessary, but she absolutely shouldn’t give up on their rtionship or sink into despair.


    "I don’t want to let go of what we have, nor do I want you to feel this upset. So vent all of this on me instead."


    Ji Yu couldn’t help butugh through her tears, "How could you say something like that?"


    She had been feeling deeply sad, but seeing him like this suddenly left her at a loss for words.


    "How could I possiblyy me on you for no reason? I know just how much I mean to you—you would undoubtedly save me."


    Back then, she should have realized something wasn’t right.


    Li Yu wouldn’t let someone go without reason, and the meaningful words and intent in his gaze at that moment—how could she have failed to grasp what was really happening?


    Perhaps it was her initial slow reaction that caused her toprehend everything only now.


    "This issue wasn’t your fault to begin with—it’s entirely mine."


    She wanted to do something to make things right, but the result still turned out like this.


    She knew deep within that she couldn’t interfere further with this matter; otherwise, Feng Qinqin would be at risk.


    "At this point, I’ve beenpletely excluded from this issue. Even if I wanted to take action, I couldn’t; no matter how much I think, it changes nothing."


    Ji Yu had known from the start that once this matter began, it would be difficult to bring it to an end.


    And if Li Yu used this method again to threaten her down the line, what could she do?


    She truly didn’t understand why they would drag her into their morally bankrupt decisions.


    "Gu Qixiao, I’m not just worried about this matter—I’m worried about what’s toe. I have a terrible feeling that they’lle looking for me again."


    Judging by their actions, it seemed highly probable that another trouble like this would arise.


    Ji Yu hated situations like this the most.


    Gu Qixiao understood her concerns as well. "I’ll protect you and your friends. I won’t let anything like this happen again."


    He tentatively reached for Ji Yu’s hand.


    This time, Ji Yu didn’t pull away.


    Truth be told, both of them understood—they held a ce in each other’s hearts.


    But the current situation was undeniably ufortable, and this difort needed to be resolved as soon as possible.


    After learning that this issue had been exposed, Feng Qinqin felt powerless.


    "I knew this matter wouldn’t stay hidden for long. Now that Yuyu knows, she must be terribly upset."


    Even if everything seemed settled on the surface, Ji Yu was bound to keep this matter in her heart.


    Ji Yuanzhou felt deeply guilty as well. If not for the actions of the two of them, Ji Yu wouldn’t have had to pay such a price.


    "Let’s go check on her."


    "What’s the point of the two of us going over? Right now, they’re likely still talking through the situation. If we went, we’d just be intruding. Yuyu wouldn’t me Gu for this; she’d only me herself." Feng Qinqin understood Ji Yu’s temperament well.


    And Feng Qinqin wasn’t mistaken.


    "The two of us had better be careful from now on. If something like this happens again, Yuyu might genuinely break down."


    This kind of situation struck right at her bottom line, leaving scars that she couldn’t shake.


    "Let’s just hope it doesn’t affect her future surgeries." It would be awful if any psychological shadow remained.


    Feng Qinqin was genuinely worried about her condition.
