Chapter 115 Happy Birthday
Ji Yu didn’t know what to say and could only acknowledge that the situation in front of her truly came as a surprise.
"You always manage to do things that catch me off guard."
This time, Ji Yu refrained from saying anything discouraging. She did find Gu Qixiao’s arrangement quite unexpected.
After all, what was between the two of them couldn’t simply be explained with a few words anymore.
Faced with everything in front of her, Ji Yu wasn’t even sure what she should say.
Perhaps the situation simply left her at a loss.
"You don’t need to feel any pressure. My desire to be good to you is entirely my own decision. You can accept it without feeling obligated to return anything."
Seeing Ji Yu’s hesitant and conflicted expression, Gu Qixiao assumed it was because she didn’t reciprocate his feelings.
"Sometimes, it’s okay to be a little selfish and just enjoy someone else’s goodwill. Like now—aren’t you happy?"
Happy? Yes, Ji Yu was happy. But she didn’t believe this was the kind of approach one should take to achieve happiness. Ji Yu had always been someone with steady emotions, so even in a situation like this, she remained calm.
"What you’re saying isn’t entirely wrong, but I hope you understand—certain things just can’t be thought of in that way."
