Chapter 349: Chapter 348: Do I Remember Him? (8)
Dong Xin Yan never expected that Gu Ningyi would go to such great lengths to find her, only to ask such a question. She was momentarily taken aback, "What?"
Gu Ningyi’s dark eyes didn’t blink as he carefully observed every subtle expression on her face, repeating in a deep voice, "What were you doing in the two months after the college entrance exam?"
Dong Xin Yan stared blankly with her beautiful eyes, her mind stalled for several seconds before she slowly moved her lips, "I... I was tutoring. I think I’ve already told you that, haven’t I?"
She remembered that Gu Ningyi had asked her a similar question before, and... he asked twice, so why ask again today?
Did he have nothing better to do?
Dong Xin Yan’s answer was exactly the same as before, even her tone was indifferent, her face calm, leaving no room for suspicion, it was the same as before... identical.
He examined closely, closely, trying to find a hint of different emotion in her eyes, perhaps panic, evasion, or maybe, a touch of familiarity.
His heart sank bit by bit.
Dong Xin Yan’s poor acting skills had never been able to fool his eyes. If she was lying, he would definitely be able to tell, yet now there were no flaws.
She was telling the truth.
Yet he was unwilling to believe, not willing to believe in the slightest. If she was telling the truth, then she wasn’t his girl. But only she could make him feel familiar, only she could make his heart race, only she could bring him back from the dark time and time again.
How could she not be his girl?
The girl who accompanied him day and night, never leaving, unwaveringly loyal, how could she not be her?
Gu Ningyi was unwilling, his brows furrowed tightly, his body unconsciously sat up straight, his voice thick with bitterness, "Was it really just tutoring? Really, nothing else special happened?"
Something special?
Dong Xin Yan looked at Gu Ningyi in confusion, seeming not to understand why he was asking like this.
Gu Ningyi gave a bitter smile; even though he was unwilling to admit it, he knew clearly in his heart that she really had... forgotten him.
Perhaps that period of memory was insignificant to her, so she didn’t even want to remember it, or maybe... she had always disliked him, so she didn’t want to remember anything related to him.
The memories he cherished were the ones she detested, weren’t they?
"No matter what you think, those two months were the best time of my life, because of you." Gu Ningyi murmured lowly, uttering each word slowly, imbued with sadness and despair.
Dong Xin Yan looked at the man in front of her; he still sat elegantly on the sofa, with a handsome appearance and an aura of cold aloofness, but for some reason, she felt an overwhelming and heavy sadness surrounding him, and his smile made people want to cry.
Dong Xin Yan blinked; gradually, she seemed to be infected by this strange sadness, her heart aching dully. She frowned in confusion, but who knew, her head abruptly felt like it had been hit by something, and a sharp pain ensued.
Many blurred scenes flooded into her mind like rewinding an old movie. She couldn’t bear it, gasping in pain.
Gu Ningyi noticed her discomfort, his gaze sharpened, and he asked in a deep voice, "Xinyan, what’s wrong?"
