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

Chapter 210: Chapter 210 No Doubt

Everyone thought Gu Qixiao must be a deeply calculating person, but it turns out, no matter how cunning someone is, once they meet the person they love, they become a fool—unable to tap into their wits no matter what happens.

She watched Ji Yu and Gu Qixiao walk through everything step by step, and by now, she sincerely believed in Gu Qixiao’s feelings.

"If this is really weighing on your heart, perhaps the two of you should talk about it sooner rather than later. I believe Gu Qixiao would be happy."

In the end, after all the twists and turns, they still ended up with each other—such a thing feels somewhat gratifying.

Ji Yu hesitated, "Let’s talk about it later. Maybe when the baby is born, I’ll be able to calmly bring up these matters."

It seemed these things were truly hard to predict easily.

Anyone would remember just how difficult this all must be.

She tried hard to keep things from getting too complicated.

When she saw Gu Qixiao again, she couldn’t help but feel conflicted.

After all, once such things are spoken, they’re hard to take back.

"Yu, is there something you want to say to me?"

He was extremely sensitive to the changes in Ji Yu’s expressions.

Today, her unusual demeanor stood out sharply to him.

"Nothing, maybe it’s just the pregnancy making me overthink." She had to admit that part of it was due to the pregnancy.

Gu Qixiao was deeply concerned about her health.

"If having this child ends up being a burden to your body, then I’d rather not have the child."

Ji Yu never thought he would say something like that.

"Gu Qixiao, do you know what you’re saying?"

This was their child, and it had already been four months—could they truly just let this child go?

"If you don’t want this child, then I don’t need you as the child’s father either."

She had done extensive soul-searching before deciding to keep this child. She wanted to give the baby a complete family and ensure it would be happy.

She had been so lonely during her own childhood and didn’t want her child to go through the same thing.

That kind of pain was far too harrowing to bear.

"That’s not what I meant. I’m just worried the child might harm your health." He knew Ji Yu cared deeply about the baby.

What he wanted to express was simply that no matter what happened next, his priority would always be Ji Yu.

The child could never compare to her. noveldrama

"This baby is optional for me. If you have this child, it will be a pleasant surprise. If you decide not to have the child, you’ll still be the woman I love."

He’d never felt conflicted about this matter in his heart.

From the very beginning, when he chose to pursue Ji Yu, he hadn’t even been sure this child was his.

For a moment, Ji Yu didn’t know what to say to him.

"Why is it that sometimes you appear so emotionally rich, yet at other times so cold and indifferent?" She suddenly felt like she couldn’t understand him.

Perhaps the way he behaved was too perplexing.

She couldn’t wrap her head around why his attitude toward the child was like this.

"To be honest, I want this baby to become the happiest person in the world. Because I’ve endured every kind of misfortune, I hope they can be joyful and carefree."

She didn’t want the misfortunes she had faced in the past to befall her child.

Now that things had reached this point, there wasn’t much else to say.

"I’m trying so hard to protect my child, yet you say things like this—it really breaks my heart." Their dynamic shouldn’t be like this.

Especially considering that the child would need a father’s love in the future.

"Though I’m living happily now, this baby is my first true family member." She deeply cherished the bond of blood that now connected them.

It felt like, for the first time in her life, she wasn’t utterly alone and finally had a thread of connection to hold onto.

This kind of feeling was indeed incredibly precious, and the child had given her a sense of belonging she had never experienced before.

"I’m working so hard to give my baby happiness, but you say these things—do you really think you’re right in doing so?" Now, she didn’t want to dwell on other matters; she simply wanted to understand where this child stood in his heart.

"Yu, you’re misunderstanding me." His expression showed a trace of helplessness.

"I know you might think I don’t care about the baby, but I care deeply. It’s just that, in front of you, nothing else could ever come first." Gu Qixiao had never considered abandoning the child, but if the baby ever clashed with Ji Yu, the child would always be the one given up.

His reasoning was simple.

To him, the most precious thing could only be one person.

Everything else, no matter how valuable, was merely an enhancement to that treasure.

The child was a wonderful surprise for them but definitely not an essential one.

"I hope you understand that in my heart, no one could ever be more important than you."

Ji Yu suddenly felt like he might be a little too ’love-struck.’

"Don’t you think there’s something wrong with the way you’re acting right now? If I were to mistreat you in the future, would you still choose this way?"

Such things naturally led people to think like this.

After all, it hadn’t been long since the two of them first met.

How could feelings possibly run so deep?

"Yu, you might not fully understand my thoughts, but for me, you’re unquestionably the most important thing. Whether it’s being love-struck or irrational, I just want to care for the one person I love."

Ji Yu didn’t even know how to argue with him.

He seemed entirely obsessed with this idea.

"Aren’t you afraid there’ll be no outcome for us?" Such things are quite common. After all, in this day and age, it’s so easy for couples to face conflicts and break up.

"I won’t fear you leaving me." Because, if that happened, he’d find a way to win her back.

"From the very beginning, didn’t you keep rejecting me? Yet now, we’re still together, aren’t we? That proves my methods work."

He had tried countless times before—why not just one more?

"I just wanted to tell you I care about you." Some things needed to be said aloud, or else they’d just remain bottled up inside where no one could see them.

Ji Yu looked at him and couldn’t help but feel exasperated.

"What’s this attitude?" Could being so love-struck truly change someone this much?

She hadn’t forgotten, Gu Qixiao had seemed so clear-headed in the beginning.

Now he’d suddenly turned into someone else, leaving her feeling it was all a bit unnatural. His attitude was also becoming somewhat overwhelming.

"You don’t need to feel pressured. Everything I’m doing, I’m doing willingly for you."
