"I ask you, where were you at twelve ten and thirty seconds this noon?"
Noon, twelve ten and thirty seconds?
Dong Xin Yan was already frightened by Gu Ningyi’s sudden action, and now hearing the specific time he mentioned, a chill ran down her spine.
At that time, she should have been stepping into the detention center.
But, how could she dare to say it? How could she dare to answer?
Her gaze was in complete disarray, not daring to look at Gu Ningyi at all. Her red lips pressed tightly together, she didn’t dare to utter a single word.
Gu Ningyi’s dark eyes stared intently at her, observing the panic in Dong Xin Yan’s eyes, watching her tightly shut red lips. The coldness in his eyes grew increasingly intense.
Even at this moment, she was still unwilling to speak the truth to him.
For Cheng Ziyang’s sake, could she lie without batting an eye and still defend him even when exposed?
Gu Ningyi glared coldly at Dong Xin Yan, then chuckled twice, loosening his hand and directly tossing Dong Xin Yan aside.
Dong Xin Yan, unable to stand firm, stumbled a few steps and heavily fell to the ground.
Gu Ningyi looked down at Dong Xin Yan from above, with a smile at the corner of his lips, but his gaze was menacing and dark, "Won’t speak, right? I’ll speak for you."
"At twelve ten and thirty seconds this noon, you walked right into the detention center to see Cheng Ziyang, and then accompanied him for the entire afternoon, five hours, right?"
When Gu Ningyi mentioned that specific time, Dong Xin Yan knew deep inside that Gu Ningyi might have found out everything, but hearing him say these words still made her face turn pale instantly.
She always thought she had been discreet enough, never expecting to be discovered by Gu Ningyi.
He wouldn’t even allow her to mention Ziyang in front of him, and would get angry, let alone her going to see Ziyang...
Dong Xin Yan unconsciously swallowed, the fear in her heart surged like a tidal wave, drowning her whole.
She lowered her head, her lips trembling intensely, but she still couldn’t utter a single word.
Gu Ningyi looked at her , anger turning into laughter, his voice low, each word brewing a huge storm, "Fine, Dong Xin Yan, you don’t want to answer, fine."
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around, reached for the phone on the table, and began dialing.
The sound of each button pressed on the phone was incredibly clear in the silent space, clearly entering Dong Xin Yan’s ear, causing her to look up in panic.
Gu Ningyi making a call at this time, who was he calling? Could it be...?
As if to confirm her thoughts, once the call connected, Gu Ningyi immediately said, "Lawyer Chen..."
Just those three simple words were like blades, piercing deeply into Dong Xin Yan’s heart. She didn’t need to think to know what Gu Ningyi was calling the lawyer about.
She had barely endured until today, how could she fall short at this moment? The most update n0vels are published on novel·fire·net
Moreover, today Ziyang just told her full of hope that he’d soon be released, and after that, they would get married and never be apart again.
How could she let him down?
Dong Xin Yan quickly got up from the ground, rushed in front of Gu Ningyi in a few steps, and urgently said, "I’ll talk, I’ll say everything, don’t make the call, don’t."
Gu Ningyi didn’t even spare her a glance, treating her as if she were air, continuing to say coldly, "Regarding Cheng Ziyang’s matter, I’ve changed my mind..."
