After hanging up the phone, Dong Xin Yan was momentarily stunned. She never expected that just taking care of Gu Ningyi when he was drunk would result in him being so gentle.
It was like good fortune falling from the sky!
After all, she had already determined that Gu Ningyi didn’t have any romantic feelings for her, so his gentleness was much better than him losing his temper at her, right? As long as she maintained a friendly relationship with him, he shouldn’t trouble her after the deal was over.
Dong Xin Yan held her phone, and a smile involuntarily curved on her lips. The beautiful dream she had last night really seemed like a good omen! After washing up, Dong Xin Yan went downstairs into the dining room.
She glanced at the dining table, expecting the usual Western breakfast prepared by Gu Ningyi, but to her surprise, it was soy milk and fried dough sticks, her favorite. Discover more novels at novel⟡fire.net
Dong Xin Yan felt even more pleasantly surprised. This was the first time Gu Ningyi had been so considerate to her, almost making her unable to believe it. She smiled and was about to warm up the soy milk when her phone beeped.
Her hand, reaching for the soy milk, paused for a moment, then she took the phone out of her pocket, and the black screen lit up, showing a series of WeChat messages.
WeChat messages from Qin Qian.
Dong Xin Yan quickly lit up the screen, tapped into WeChat, and opened the unread messages.
[Xinxin, what’s going on between you and Gu Ningyi?]
[Did Gu Ningyi really give Tang Qian a severe lesson for your sake yesterday?]
[Are you and Gu Ningyi really together now?]
[Answer me quickly!!!!]
Qin Qian had sent four WeChat messages in a row, with several exclamation marks to express her shock and amazement.
Dong Xin Yan knew that the incidents on the set yesterday would definitely spread, but she didn’t expect it to spread so quickly. It hadn’t even been twenty-four hours, and Qin Qian already knew.
She never had the chance to explain her situation with Gu Ningyi to Qin Qian in detail, and now she felt there was no need because she and Gu Ningyi were about to end things.
Their deal would remain a secret forever.
But how was she going to explain yesterday’s incident to Qin Qian?
Dong Xin Yan furrowed her brows and pondered for a while before starting to compose a WeChat message: [I’m not with Gu Ningyi. What happened yesterday was just an act.]
Just a few seconds after sending, Qin Qian replied: [An act? What do you mean?]
[Gu Ningyi had a disagreement with Zhou Yalin, so he wanted me to provoke her a little.]
Qin Qian sent a string of surprised emojis, but soon expressed her doubt: [Why would Gu Ningyi have you provoke Zhou Yalin? Aren’t the two of you not on good terms?]
Dong Xin Yan took a deep breath, suppressed her guilt, and continued to calmly compose a lie: [Well... well, isn’t it because I needed a favor from Ziyang, so he conveniently offered a deal. I help him act, and he lets Ziyang go.]
Dong Xin Yan’s response was half-true and half-lie. Although Qin Qian was still surprised, she accepted the explanation and simply remarked, [Mr. Gu’s actions are childish! Just like Yuan Shen, that idiot. It’s no wonder they’re brothers!]
Dong Xin Yan was about to reply with an emoji when Qin Qian sent another WeChat message.
[No wonder I saw Zhou Yalin at the airport last night. I was wondering why she returned to the country.]
Dong Xin Yan’s fingers suddenly paused, her eyes widened slightly, Zhou Yalin... is back?
