h4Chapter 324: Chapter 324: You are by My Side/h4

Since Ji Yu returned, it feels like everything has started to fall into ce.

Xia Chuanhe hasn’t appeared even once, maybe he was scolded by Professor Zhang.

Madam Ji’s condition is gradually improving as well.

Although Ji Yu isn’t living with Gu Qixiao for the time being, she still seems quite attentive to his matters.

"Shouldn’t we, as an engaged couple, go out for a meal together?"

She was also curious about what they were like in the past, but looking at Gu Qixiao now, she felt as though her previous self must have been rather unreasonable.

"Of course, I’ll treat you."

It had been a long time since Gu Qixiao had shared a proper meal with Ji Yu.

Seeing Ji Yu now, he felt an overwhelming sense of longing.

"Gu Qixiao, tell me about our past. Honestly, I’m quite curious—what kind of person was I before?"

Her eyes sparkled as she looked at Gu Qixiao, genuinely seeming interested in their history.

"In the past, you had a bit of a temper. You were very sessful in your field. When we first met, things weren’t particrly pleasant. Also, back then... you were actually my ex-wife."

"Ex-wife?" Ji Yu was utterly stunned. She hadn’t realized she’d already been married before.

And divorced, no less!

This whole situation was beginning to feel increasingly absurd.

Gu Qixiao spent the entire night beside Ji Yu, recounting their shared history.

When he spoke of their engagement, his heart was filled with bittersweet nostalgia.

"Our story really is quite remarkable," Ji Yu remarked, surprised by how her past had unfolded.

It turned out that two people who seemingly had no connection ended up intertwined due to a single event.

"Although I don’t have any recollection of it, everything you’ve said feels genuine now that I’ve heard it."

But things weren’t like this when she spent time with Xia Chuanhe.

In those moments, she found herself instinctively rejecting anything she felt wasn’t right. For example, she could firmly assert that she’d never shared certain experiences with Xia Chuanhe. Deep down, she couldn’t help but protest.

Now, it seemed as though her very being was signaling to her whom she truly had feelings for.

"Gu Qixiao, I believe that I do love you." Ji Yu, who often acted without rhyme or reason, was resolutely certain about this matter.

When you love someone, your body won’t contradict it.

Ji Yu gazed at him with hopeful eyes, and Gu Qixiao realized he was still powerless against her—whether it was the Ji Yu who had lost her memories or the one from before, both versions of her affected him deeply.

"Yu, you really know how to keep me on edge. But you’re right—what I’ve done for you is what I was willing to do because we are mutually in love."

If he hadn’t been willing, no one could have pressured him to act against his wishes.

Ji Yu was curious about Gu Qixiao’s behavior. "Then how did you manage to resisting to find me during this time?"

To her, love meant possession. If someone didn’t even feel possessive, could it really be called love?

"Because I know what’s most important to you. Even if that priority isn’t me, as long as you are willing to stay by my side, that’s enough for me."

Gu Qixiao didn’t dwell on the missed opportunities, because he trusted that Ji Yu wouldn’t betray him. That’s why he remained steadfast.

"Yu, I’ll always trust youpletely. No matter what happens, to me, you’ll always be you."

The situation was that simple—even if anyone insulted Ji Yu, the end result would be the same.

"Gu Qixiao, I’vee to realize you really are an incredible person." Ji Yu wasn’t sure how to describe him, but everything Gu Qixiao had done was beyond what most people were capable of.

Ji Yu’s impression of Gu Qixiao remained positive. However, she was reminded of something he mentioned that day. "Don’t you ever feel dissatisfied or unwilling to ept things as they are? Gu Qixiao, I think your feelings might be a bit too devoted. I suggest you try changing a little—otherwise, you might not be able to endure it emotionally in the future."

Although their rtionship seemed stable at the moment, no one could predict what the future would hold.

Gu Qixiao didn’t know how to react to those words, but every time he saw Ji Yu, they lingered in his mind.

"Yu, you’re so important to me that if you ever really decide to leave, please let me know beforehand. Otherwise, I don’t know what I might do."

He’d always known that the two of them might not end up together. With Ji Yu’s amnesia, there was always the possibility she could grow to love someone else down the line.

"Alright, don’t be so pessimistic. I was just saying that. Starting today, let’s try a different kind of rtionship. I’m worried that if we keep going like this, you might develop emotional scars."

In truth, this suggestion caught Gu Qixiao somewhat off guard.

Still, since Ji Yu had already expressed her thoughts, he had to go along with her wishes.

Ji Yu wasn’t sure how long she could keep this up. But as long as there was still love between them, none of these issues truly mattered.

"Yu, you’re now inseparable from Gu Qixiao. Do you really have amnesia, or are you just selectively choosing to forget certain things?" Ji Yuanzhou couldn’t help but feel curious when he saw the two of them hugging even as they parted.

Ji Yu’s behavior was undeniably unusual.

Ji Yu smiled knowingly, as though she had already anticipated their questions.

"I don’t remember the past, but whenever I see Gu Qixiao, I feel happy in my heart. I can’t believe such a feeling could be fake."

She was still unfamiliar with this kind of emotion. But whenever she saw Gu Qixiao, there was a curious sense of joy she’d never experienced with Xia Chuanhe.

Because of this, she was now willing to stay with Gu Qixiao. Even if some unexpected situations arose in the end, it wouldn’t mean there was anything wrong between them.

"You really have changed yet stayed the same. But I think this version of you is still quite wonderful." Ji Yuanzhou, watching Ji Yu, felt a mix of happiness and sorrow. Perhaps only this version of Ji Yu could continue to findsting joy.

"It doesn’t matter if I’ve changed or not. What matters is that my heart will guide me in the right direction. I don’t see any problem with it." She wasn’t afraid of the unknown.
