Oops, I had a ONS With My Secret Ex-husband-Chapter 496 Rescue
Gu Qixiao naturally couldnโt allow things to continue developing this way. ๐๐ณ๐ฆ๐๐ค๐๐ฃ๐ฏโด๐ท๐ฆ๐.๐๐๐
"Iโm here, and I will save you."
He quickly arranged for someone to rescue her.
But at that moment, Jiang Huai began to laugh.
His gaze toward Ji Yu grew more terrifying.
"Yu, since thereโs no way to make you love me, then keep hating me. I think your hatred is fascinating too."
He couldnโt help but start laughing again.
That laugh carried a truly perverse undertone.
Ji Yu rarely encountered people like him, and for a moment, she felt genuinely overwhelmed.
"What good does any of this do for you? Do you truly enjoy this twisted desire?"
To her, the entire scenario seemed utterly surreal.
"Yes, I enjoy this feeling. You belong to me, and only me."
He looked at her greedily, as if they could truly be together after this.
Ji Yu frowned. She wasnโt in the best condition herself at this moment, and she suspected Jiang Huai had employed some kind of trick.
"Without me, youโd continue floundering this way until the day you die. Wouldnโt Gu Qixiaoโs expression be truly priceless if you ended up dying like this?"
His bloodstained hand traced a mark across Ji Yuโs cheek.
The smell of blood filled Ji Yuโs nostrils, and her face paled noticeably, the oppressive scene threatening to break her resolve.
"What do you mean by that?" Ji Yu inhaled deeply, already certain he had orchestrated something twistedโit was just that he hadnโt revealed his plan yet.
"Surely, my words are crystal clear to you."
He smiled at her.
Ji Yu felt a stabbing pain in her head and began to understand the implications.
Jiang Huai truly was a genius in pharmacology, though regrettably, he had put his brilliance to sinister use.
He was a man steeped in dissonance, no matter the situation.
"Jiang Huai, youโll only destroy yourself this way. Do you think this madness is amusing?"
The only person he would ultimately destroy was himself.
"I advise you to take a good look at who youโve become. Youโre not in a state to keep spiraling like this."
Ji Yu offered her advice with sincerity.
But Jiang Huai showed no sign of relenting.
"Yu, I love you deeply, so I stopped caring long ago."
Even if it meant his own demise, all he wanted was a single outcome.
Ji Yu often struggled to understand why his thoughts were so extremeโnot only did he drag himself into ruin, but he also sought to pull everyone else into the abyss.
Though Ji Yu wasnโt certain what Jiang Huai had done to the old matriarch, judging by Lin Zhiyuanโs grim expression earlier, the outcome couldnโt be a good one.
"Iโve always been stubborn, so itโs only natural that Iโd be like this when it comes to you. I donโt believe thereโs anything wrong with what Iโve done. Even if Gu Qixiao shows up, he wonโt dare kill me."
Because Gu Qixiao understood all too well who was more indispensable in this moment.
Ji Yu inhaled deeply, finally grasping the true definition of "twisted."
A man like Jiang Huai was indeed difficult to deal with; no matter the circumstances, it was unthinkable to kill the person capable of resolving their drug-induced plight.
"Ji Yu, admit itโat this moment, you need me. You have no choice but to rely on me to escape this predicament. Why canโt you just love me a little?"
Even if the love were fake, heโd accept it without hesitation.
Yet Ji Yu clearly wasnโt even inclined to feign affection. She simply wanted to escape his grasp as quickly as possible.
She couldnโt understand why he held on so obsessively.
"Childhood memories must feel distant to you by now. Why wonโt you just let yourself move on from them?"
Perhaps if he forgave himself, he wouldnโt be suffering so deeply.
"If I were capable of letting go, I wouldnโt be trapped in these past memories, unable to move forward. When I realized your heart belonged to someone else, I regretted it. If Iโd been by your side from the start, would things have turned out differently?"
The pain in his heart was unbearable.
Pain so consuming, he now had no idea what to do.
At that moment, Gu Qixiao arrived with reinforcements.
Lin Zhiyuan, still reeling from the footage he had seen earlier, was near breaking point.
"What did you do to my mother?" To him, Jiang Huai was nothing less than a madman. How could he treat his mother so heinously? She had done nothing wrong.
"Exactly what you saw. Sheโs now gone to the underworld to join your father. I imagine she must be quite pleased."
Even as Jiang Huai appeared disheveled, his words were as ruthlessly cold as ever, as if the matter was trivial.
Not just Lin Zhiyuanโeven Ji Yu felt a deep sorrow upon hearing those words. For an old matriarch to suffer so was unforgivable, yet Jiang Huai seemed utterly indifferent.
"Iโve taken many lives in my time. To me, this is nothing more than the life of a bug."
Jiang Huai had never feared killing since he was young. While he had faced punishment, he had ultimately survived.
To him, what he was doing now was remarkably simple. Even if they wanted to kill him, what of it? They couldnโt do it, could they?
"Lin Zhiyuan, calm yourself. We canโt kill him right nowโwe need to save him." Gu Qixiao knew this truth was cruel for Lin Zhiyuan, but there was no alternative.
They needed Jiang Huaiโs help and, more importantly, the antidote he could create.
"Donโt you see? Someone like him will never help you. His actions were meant to tear you apartโnow that heโs succeeded, why would he give you the antidote?"
If he did provide an antidote, it would only be for Ji Yu.
Jiang Huai was inherently selfish, concerned only with the people he cared about. Under these circumstances, there was no way he would help Gu Qixiao, whose situation was becoming increasingly dire.
"Jiang Huai, you only have two options: die here, or create the antidote that will free both of us completely."
Ji Yu approached the matter with seriousness. The relationship between them was already strained, and if Jiang Huai died here, it would only mean he got what he deserved.
The sins he had committed were enough to warrant his death a hundred times over.
