Could it be that he hadn’t met that person for so long, so he inadvertently transferred that sense of familiarity to Dong Xin Yan?
After all these years, he and Dong Xin Yan were always at odds, she was almost a woman who constantly hovered around him.
Dong Xin Yan propped herself up and went downstairs, already exhausted to the point of collapse. She estimated she didn’t have the strength to hold out until reaching home, so she simply booked a room at the Dynasty.
Even a standard single room in a five-star hotel costs a fortune, but Dong Xin Yan couldn’t care less about the money. As soon as she entered the room, she immediately went to the bathroom to fill up the water, eager to take a shower.
She soaked herself in hot water, scrubbing her body vigorously as if it were the first time, until her skin turned red and sore, before she emerged from the bathroom.
But even so, Dong Xin Yan knew, from the first night she went to Gu Ningyi, agreeing to use her body in exchange for Ziyang’s safety, she was already tainted. No matter how much she washed, she was still dirty.
If Ziyang knew, he would definitely be very sad, and certainly very angry.
With his personality, even if he had to spend a lifetime in prison, he wouldn’t want her to degrade herself like that.
But, how could she let him go to jail?
He is so young, with a promising future ahead of him. She couldn’t let his life be marred by a prison record. The source of this content ɪs Novᴇl_Fire(.)net
Besides, this time Gu Ningyi wouldn’t let Ziyang go mainly because of her, right? Because Gu Ningyi disliked her, he disliked everyone around her as well. Otherwise... Ziyang only punched him once, at most it would be a few days in detention and some educational punishment, but he insisted on accusing Ziyang of serious assault.
And the law has always been a paradise for the rich.
Dong Xin Yan lay on the bed, her mind wandering through many thoughts, not even knowing when she fell asleep. She was awakened again by the ringing of her phone.
With her eyes still closed, Dong Xin Yan reached for the phone by feel, answered it, and spoke with a hoarse voice, "Hello—"
"Sister Xin? You’re not still sleeping, are you? Oh my god... the director’s already gone crazy."
Wenwen’s anxious voice came through the phone, Dong Xin Yan’s mind lagged for two seconds, then she suddenly opened her eyes. She hadn’t drawn the curtains last night, and as soon as her eyes opened, the sunlight poured in, making her squint reflexively.
"Sister Xin? Sister Xin? Are you listening? Hurry up and come over, otherwise, the director is really going to cut you out!"
"Okay, I got it, please help me calm down the director. I’m heading there right now."
After hanging up the call, Dong Xin Yan instinctively glanced at the time on her phone—it was already past nine.
She felt like her head was going to explode; she had intended to sleep only a few hours before driving back to the set, but she overslept...
At a lightning speed, Dong Xin Yan washed, dressed up, and with no time for makeup, she wore large sunglasses that covered most of her face, grabbed her bag, and quickly left the hotel.
She went straight to where she parked last night, but when she got to the spot, her car was nowhere to be seen. Dong Xin Yan frowned—did she remember the wrong spot? No, she remembered parking it right here.
Just then, a security guard walked by, and Dong Xin Yan hurriedly asked him, "Hello, my car was parked here yesterday, a red Audi A1. Why is it missing now?"
