Oops, I had a ONS With My Secret Ex-husband-Chapter 503 I Want You Dead

This matter quickly reached Jiang Huai’s ears.

He clearly dismissed it with disdain.

"Now he suddenly remembers Yu’s situation. Isn’t he just the straightforward culprit? If it weren’t for him, how could Yu possibly end up like this?"

From the very beginning, he never imagined Ji Yu would go to such lengths for Gu Qixiao, especially given the current circumstances, which filled his heart with intense jealousy.

The jealousy was distorting him.

"So what are you going to do? If you want to confront Gu Qixiao, then go talk to him. If you want to settle accounts, then just deal with him directly. Why keep dragging this on?"

Because he also wanted to save Ji Yu.

His feelings for Ji Yu had never been a secret.

Even in this dire situation, he wasn’t giving up on their relationship.

Having promised to stay together forever, how could they separate so easily now?

"I’ll handle Yu’s situation, but I need to see Gu Qixiao."

There were some things he had to resolve with Gu Qixiao.

Gu Qixiao had already prepared himself mentally.

When he saw him, he wasn’t surprised at all.

"Although I don’t know when the incident you’re referring to happened, I absolutely won’t refuse this matter."

He knew Ji Yu’s condition was deteriorating. Even though she hadn’t explicitly said anything, her wan and haggard appearance had already clued him in that something was wrong.

"You’ve decided so quickly? I thought for sure you’d reject me." He remained confident about this matter.

He mainly found Gu Qixiao’s actions utterly revolting.

He had endured to his limit. Such happiness should not belong solely to someone like Gu Qixiao.

Gu Qixiao looked at him, expressionlessly.

"Just say what you need to. Whatever you ask, I will agree. Don’t I already have limited time left?"

At this point, he hadn’t considered taking the antidote anymore.

He knew his physical condition far too well.

Continuing this strain would only lead to even more tension between them.

No one was clearer about Ji Yu’s inner thoughts than him.

"My desire is simple: you must die. I need your life as an exchange for Yu’s. Of course, if I eventually prepare an antidote, I’ll certainly send it to you. But by then, it might only greet your corpse."

As he spoke of this, he couldn’t help but laugh. His appearance was like someone spiraling into madness.

Gu Qixiao wasn’t at all shocked by his deranged display.

The two of them were familiar enough to know that they needed to tread carefully in situations like this.

"Gu Qixiao, your calm demeanor—don’t tell me you’re already planning to back out. If you do, I’ll get Yu. She’d never fall for a cowardly man."

He was relentless in this regard.

His intent was so glaringly obvious that Gu Qixiao didn’t even know how to respond.

"Gu Qixiao, you truly are a cold-blooded person. But even if you die, Yu’s heart will surely still bear traces of you. How can you be so utterly infuriating?"

If only you had never existed, wouldn’t that be perfect?

He was still obsessively fixated on this thought.

Gu Qixiao had nothing to say, only knowing that Ji Yu’s condition took precedence above all. The rest was irrelevant to him.

"You know better than anyone how I’m feeling right now. I just want Yu to live well. As for everything else, it’s inevitably meaningless to me."

Since a fatal ending was already certain, he might as well do something for Ji Yu now.

At the very least, the final Chapter of his life could culminate in something that felt worthwhile.

"Fine. As long as you die, this whole mess will be resolved quickly."

Jiang Huai had long been waiting for this day. Watching the situation unfold—and combined with Gu Qixiao’s straightforward agreement—he couldn’t help but feel overjoyed.

Gu Qixiao looked at him coldly.

He had always known such matters would never be resolved smoothly.

"Who gave you permission to die for me?" Ji Yu’s voice came suddenly, startling them, her expression dark and inscrutable.

Clearly having overheard their conversation, she now looked visibly uncomfortable.

She had already realized how disastrous this situation had become.

Ji Yu didn’t even know how she had ended up like this.

Why did they both insist on giving up their lives because of this?

"Gu Qixiao, what do you take yourself as to me? What gives you the right to think you can die for me?" Her tone sharply reflected her displeasure. What she wanted was simple, but it certainly didn’t include Gu Qixiao sacrificing himself.

Gu Qixiao gazed at Ji Yu helplessly, fully aware of how dire the situation was. Resolving this would prove more difficult than climbing the heavens.

"Yu, please don’t get upset. I understand you don’t want to witness this scene, but it’s the only thing I can do for you. I genuinely don’t know what else I can do."

He could feel his lifeforce slipping away.

If he didn’t act at the brink of death, Gu Qixiao feared he would regret it for his entire lifetime.

"Gu Qixiao, let me tell you one last time—your matters have nothing to do with me. Our story doesn’t require you to do this."

She regretted everything intensely.

Ji Yu clutched her aching head, lost as to what she could actually do.

Maybe because all this was a calamity for her.

"Gu Qixiao, you should focus seriously on your own predicament. You aren’t alone; you’ve got people around you to take care of. If you keep this up, Uncle Gu would be heartbroken."

She realized Gu Qixiao was just acting impulsively for now.

"I’ll handle matters with my father, but what I want to do now is protect you."

Having lost all opportunity to protect Ji Yu previously, he resorted to this extreme method, yet even now, Ji Yu still rejected him.

Ji Yu took a deep breath and slapped him across the face.
