Chapter 298: Chapter 297: So Anxious? (7)
If she knew he was hospitalized, would she come to remind him that three months were up, and let Ziyang go...
Gu Ningyi’s words slowly entered Dong Xin Yan’s ears. She was taken aback for a moment, and then her first reaction was, yes.
Everything she did was for Ziyang, enduring these three months with such difficulty, unwilling to wait even a second longer.
But at this moment, looking at Gu Ningyi’s somber, handsome face, she opened her mouth but didn’t dare to say that word, so she could only fall silent.
Her silence also represented her answer.
Gu Ningyi’s thin lips barely curved into a smile, but it wasn’t even a full smile.
He was always hoping extravagantly, always harboring small expectations, but how cruel was Dong Xin Yan, never giving him a hint of hope, not even willing to deceive him a little.
Heh heh.
Really, she had told him so many lies before, and at this moment, as long as she was willing to lie to him once more, he could overlook everything and agree to anything.
Yet even when humbled to the dust, he still anticipated nothing.
Gu Ningyi still laughed, though he wasn’t sure if he was laughing at Dong Xin Yan or himself.
The hand gripping her neck suddenly loosened, his steps even stumbled, retreating a few steps.
The threat of suffocation disappeared, and Dong Xin Yan couldn’t help but take big gulps of air, occasionally coughing, finally calming down after a while. Yet hearing his low laugh, her heart still carried fear, unease, and an inexplicable stabbing pain, like fine needles piercing her one by one.
She wanted to say something, but her red lips moved slightly, not knowing what to say.
Between her and Gu Ningyi, it was just a transaction. Even if...there were a few days their relationship eased, it was nothing but an illusion.
Her mind always focused on ending it, wanting to...distance herself from him.
Dong Xin Yan’s hands unknowingly clenched the bags’ straps, tightly gripping into fists, then swallowed, softly spoke, her tone very respectful, "Mr. Gu, I apologize for seeking out Miss Zhou without permission, but rest assured, I explained our relationship to her clearly, she won’t misunderstand. However, our transaction is indeed over, and I hope you can keep your promise and let Ziyang go."
After she finished speaking, she gently bent her waist, very respectfully bowing to Gu Ningyi.
The smile on Gu Ningyi’s lips was instantly stiff and ironic, affected by her words and this bow.
These three months, to her, were merely a transaction, but to him, they were his love.
He no longer sought anything; just, why did she have to be so decisive, so heartless...as if she was gouging out his heart.
It hurt so much...so much that...he wanted her to hurt too, to let her know just how much he hurt...
The demon hidden in his heart uncontrollably emerged, taking over all his senses, and the stiff smile on his lips gradually turned into a deep, cold smirk.
His thin lips parted slightly, speaking lazily, but the words were so cruel, "You said you explained our relationship to Yalin clearly, can you really explain a relationship like ours clearly?"
Dong Xin Yan looked up in shock, "Mr. Gu, Mr. Gu, what... what do you mean?"
