Chapter 227: Coercion

    <h4>Chapter 227: Chapter 227: Coercion</h4>


    Song Xuan was already in a somewhat incoherent state.


    When she heard this sentence, her emotions began to crumble.


    "How could I possibly lose Xiao? Don’t try to scare me. I don’t believe a single word you’re saying!"


    Ji Yu looked at her crazed state, unsure whether she was just putting on a show or if her earlier condition had been a mere coincidence.


    What kind of luck did Gu Qixiao have to be surrounded by people who were all a little deranged?


    "Just send them both straight to the hospital."


    Both of their conditions seemed off; Ji Yu wasn’t sure if it was entirely mental instability but decided it wasn’t worth her time to dwell on them.


    She still had other matters to attend to.


    When she saw the patient in front of her, her eyes filled with pity.


    "Why didn’t youe earlier?"


    By this stage, things had deteriorated so much that it was hard to return them to their original state.


    The other person smiled bitterly.


    "I wanted toe to you earlier, but I didn’t even know this was an option before now. I had no idea what to do. When I came to you today, I was already mentally prepared. I know my face may never fully recover."


    She had sought help from many doctors before, but none had the skill or results that Ji Yu’s clinic seemed capable of offering.


    "Your face can only be restored up to eighty percent," Ji Yu had conducted a brief analysis and concluded this as the best oue.


    "Recovering eighty percent is already beyond my expectations. I’m incredibly grateful that you’re willing to perform this surgery, but... you’re pregnant. Can you even safely do this?"


    The woman looked at her with gratitude but also visible concern for her health.


    "Ms. Jiang, I’d love nothing more than to see your wless face back on the big screen. So even though I’m pregnant, I’ll perform this surgery for you."


    She admired her patient’s previously perfect face immensely.


    Though it was regrettable that this face might not be as perfect afterward.


    But that didn’t stop her from appreciating beauty.


    Upon hearing these words, Jiang Yaohuan couldn’t help but shed tears.


    "I’ll definitely return to the stage I’ve always loved."


    She had lived through so much and would never give up so easily.


    She was profoundly thankful for Ji Yu’s help.


    "If you ever need anything in the future, don’t hesitate toe to me. I will never forget what you’ve done for me."


    As long as her face could return to some semnce of normalcy, that was all that really mattered to her.


    Ji Yu had postponed many surgeries recently, but this one was something she didn’t want to dy.


    When Gu Qixiao learned about this, he was deeply worried.


    "Yu, I know how much you feel for Jiang Yaohuan’s case, but you’re carrying a child. You shouldn’t be doing this kind of thing."


    He wasn’t trying to restrict her freedom; he only wanted to express that this wasn’t something she ought to be doing in her current condition.


    "But this is my job. It’s also my passion. From the very beginning, I only wanted to help restore these beautiful faces to their natural state."


    In Ji Yu’s mind, there was never any point in life where work had to stop.


    Especially in her current situation, there wasn’t much to agonize over.


    "I’ll have Tian apany me in the operating room to ensure everything goes smoothly. I promise, I’ll be fine. Trust me."


    Her attitude towards this matter was incredibly serious, reflecting her deep love for her profession.


    On this issue, she wasn’t willing topromise at all.


    Gu Qixiao appeared very helpless; he didn’t know what else to say. After all, this was the thing she loved most. Trying to stop her felt like stifling her passions.


    "Then promise me, if you feel even the slightest bit unwell, you’lle out immediately and stop pushing yourself."


    "Alright, don’t worry. If I feel unwell, I’ll leave the operating room myself. I wouldn’t need you to remind me. Pushing myself too hard will only dy the procedure." She was well aware of this and would never force herself through a surgery.


    In the event of an ident, the patient’s face could be irreparably harmed.


    That would be the ultimate humiliation for her as a professional.


    "By the way, I haven’t asked you yet—when did you start taking action against Li Yu?"


    This matter truly came as a surprise to her.


    "From the moment I knew you were safe, I was already nning to deal with him. What he did was unforgivable, so I could never let him off that easily."


    When he spoke, his gaze carried a hint of cold determination.


    In his eyes, nothing was more important than Ji Yu’s safety.


    At this point, he felt it necessary to make Li Yu pay an equivalent price.


    Ji Yu hadn’t expected him to have started plotting so early, but she agreed that dealing with Li Yu was the right decision.


    Recently, there had been no news from Li Yu. She wondered if that meant he had silently epted what she’d told him before.


    "If he stops bothering me, we should just call everyone back. Leave him some room to breathe; no need to push too hard. Cornering someone too much can make themsh out. A rabbit will bite when it’s desperate, and a dog will jump over a wall when cornered. We must leave some space; otherwise, both sides will end up getting hurt."


    Gu Qixiao followed her words almost without question.


    "Yu, don’t worry. If he shows signs of giving up, I’ll pull back. Besides, to me, your well-being is the most important thing. Anything regarding him isn’t particrly urgent to deal with."


    In his eyes, Li Yu wasn’t significant at all. The only reason he had threatened him in the first ce was that he’d managed to exploit a moment of weakness.


    "Yu, all you need to focus on is your own matters. Leave the rest to me. I promise, I won’t let anything happen to you."


    Ji Yu never saw herself as someone who needed protection. But now, for some reason, she suddenly felt her heart stir.


    "Gu Qixiao, if you’re always this good to me, aren’t you afraid that one day I’ll be overly dependent on you and stop wanting to do anything myself?"


    She was seriously reflecting on this thought.


    It wasn’t an easy thing to admit.


    "If I’m giving you my shoulder to lean on, it means I intend to stay by your side forever."


    As he said this, his mind wandered back to Ji Yu’s ex-husband.


    "I won’t abandon you like that man did."


    Ji Yu had been deeply moved, but hearing this, she quickly wiped her tears away. This wasn’t a topic they should continue discussing; it could easily disrupt their growing bond.


    "Every time you bring up my ex, you instinctively avoid the topic afterward. Does this person really mean that much to you?"
