Chapter 294: Chapter 293: So Anxious? (3)
After Zhou Yalin hung up the phone, she gently held her phone, then spoke, saying to the driver in front, "To the Gu Mansion."
The driver responded, "Yes, miss."
-
Dong Xin Yan did not expect that Gu Ningyi would be at the hospital. After hanging up the phone, she stood in place dazed for a while before coming to her senses, and then she flagged down a car to go to the hospital.
When she arrived at the ward’s door, she unconsciously paused her steps, looking at the tightly closed door, and a hint of doubt flashed in her eyes.
Who is sick?
Gu Ningyi?
Could it be that he disappeared these days because he was hospitalized?
But he seemed perfectly healthy, not showing any signs of sickness. Why would he be hospitalized without any reason? And just now on the phone, he hadn’t said anything, only asked her to come to the hospital.
However, if he really disappeared because he was hospitalized due to illness, then did she really... misunderstand him?
As Dong Xin Yan thought about it, she reached out to knock on the door, but it opened from the inside.
Dong Xin Yan reflexively raised her eyes and, upon seeing the person inside the door, froze for a moment, "Yuan Shen?"
As Qin Qian’s best friend, and considering Yuan Shen’s usual gentlemanly demeanor towards women, he was always kind and amicable towards her.
But now, when he saw her, his brow lightly furrowed, his expression indifferent, and his eyes fixed on her, faintly showing much dissatisfaction.
Feeling a bit strange, Dong Xin Yan lightly furrowed her brows, her red lips moved slightly, and she softly spoke, "Yuan Shen, is something wrong?"
Yuan Shen looked at Dong Xin Yan’s innocent big eyes, his lips curled slightly, and coldly let out a laugh, "Dong Xin Yan, is it fun to toy with people?"
"...."
What does it mean to toy with people?
Dong Xin Yan blinked her dark eyes, full of confusion, "Yuan Shen, what do you mean by that?"
Still daring to play dumb?
Yuan Shen’s cold laugh intensified, his voice icy, and what he said carried no disguise for his sarcasm, "Dong Xin Yan, I really couldn’t tell, not only do you have the skill to have men wrapped around your finger, but you’re also first-rate at playing dumb. No wonder you got Yi..."
Yuan Shen hadn’t finished his sentence when suddenly a warning voice, neither cold nor warm, sounded from behind, "Yuan Shen."
Yuan Shen’s voice halted, his eyes carrying a trace of irritation. Is he so protective that he won’t even allow a word to be said?
He glared at Dong Xin Yan fiercely, ultimately not continuing, snorted coldly, and walked away.
Dong Xin Yan stood there dumbfounded, unable to digest Yuan Shen’s words. After Yuan Shen left, Gu Ningyi’s voice lightly sounded, "You don’t need to mind what he said."
Dong Xin Yan furrowed her brows, thought for a moment, then slowly spoke, "Did Yuan Shen... misunderstand something?"
"Misunderstand?"
Gu Ningyi didn’t expect her to say this and slowly repeated it, suddenly letting out a soft laugh, "Yeah, misunderstood."
Such simple and easy words, misunderstanding.
Two words can shatter all of his goodness, all of his hopes, to pieces.
Although Gu Ningyi was smiling, Dong Xin Yan felt an inexplicable sadness, just like the feeling he gave her that night, making her heart involuntarily tighten.
Dong Xin Yan puzzledly touched her heart, what’s happening to her?
Gu Ningyi only let out a laugh, quickly resuming his cold and indifferent expression. He raised his eyes slightly, his vision still blurred, only able to vaguely see her figure. He pressed his lips and spoke plainly, "You were looking for me, about what?"
