The text messages between her and Ziyang, the call records with Aunt Cheng... these are all things Gu Ningyi doesn’t want to see.
If Gu Ningyi sees them, perhaps he really would have smashed her phone.
Damn, how did she leave her phone in the bathroom!
Dong Xin Yan frowned and bit her lower lip. At this critical moment, she really wanted to keep pretending to be asleep, as if she knew nothing, but she still needed to confirm whether Gu Ningyi had really smashed her phone.
Dong Xin Yan scratched her head, hesitated for a long while, and eventually slowly lifted the quilt and got out of bed.
It’s fine, she’ll just pretend she doesn’t know anything, just act like she’s going in to look for her phone, stay calm, stay calm...
Dong Xin Yan closed her eyes lightly and took a deep breath, trying hard to convince herself, then raised her foot and walked slowly towards the bathroom.
Just reaching the bathroom door, Dong Xin Yan could feel the suffocatingly dangerous atmosphere inside. Her footsteps paused for a moment, but she clenched her fists and continued to walk in.
Gu Ningyi stood in front of the mirror, hands propped on the sink. Dong Xin Yan slightly raised her eyes and saw through the transparent mirror Gu Ningyi’s expressionless face and his dark, brooding eyes, his entire demeanor exuding extreme sharpness, cold and frightening.
Noticing Dong Xin Yan, he lifted his eyelids, his dark eyes slowly rotating to meet Dong Xin Yan’s eyes in the mirror. Although he didn’t look directly at her, it still made Dong Xin Yan’s heart tremble violently. Check latest chapters at novᴇlfire.net
She suddenly lowered her gaze, instinctively tilting her face slightly to avoid his gaze.
Gu Ningyi fixed his eyes on Dong Xin Yan in the mirror, clearly observing her every move, and it seemed that recently, the action she repeated the most was avoiding.
Avoiding everything about him.
The light in his eyes slightly darkened, and the hands resting on the sink unconsciously clenched into fists.
"Well, I think I left my phone here yesterday..."
Dong Xin Yan tried to speak as if nothing happened, but before she finished her words, she saw the phone on the ground, its screen shattered, the case flung open, and the whole thing in pieces.
It was indeed her phone.
This phone was given to her by Ziyang for her birthday this year, and she had chosen the phone case, which was a matching couple case with Ziyang.
Now, the phone was broken, and the case was cracked as well. It was as if... her relationship with Ziyang had also been shattered hard.
The hand hanging by Dong Xin Yan’s side suddenly tightened, a rush of bitterness flooded in quickly, her eyes moistened, and she hurriedly lowered her head, afraid Gu Ningyi would see her tears.
She couldn’t get angry, definitely couldn’t get angry. If she fell out with Gu Ningyi now, it wouldn’t do her any good. Don’t get angry, getting angry would mean losing, stay calm, stay calm.
Dong Xin Yan’s tightly clenched hand trembled slightly. She closed her eyes, forcibly suppressing the bitterness and anger, and in a restrained voice, even feigned a hint of surprise, "How did my phone get broken...?"
As Dong Xin Yan spoke, she awkwardly lifted her foot and walked towards the phone, then squatted down powerlessly, trembling hands picking up the phone and its case, clutching them in her hand.
Suddenly, Dong Xin Yan found it very ironic; she never knew her acting skills could be so good.
