As this thought appeared in her mind, a chill ran down her spine. She gripped the steering wheel tightly, slammed on the brakes, causing the tires to screech against the ground. Due to inertia, her body lunged forward. If not for the seat belt, she would have smashed into the windshield.
Gu Ningyi heard the noise, slowly turned around, the dark eyes lifted slightly, and through the windshield, he looked steadily at her, the corners of his lips involuntarily curling upward.
Dong Xin Yan frowned deeply, feeling agitated and pressed her lips together, hesitating whether to just drive away.
But she knew too well that while she could avoid him temporarily, she couldn’t do so forever. If Gu Ningyi kept pestering her, no matter how understanding Ziyang was, how forgiving, he would feel hurt and upset. Plus, she wanted nothing to do with this endless entanglement.
It would be better to clear things up once and for all.
Dong Xin Yan closed her eyes briefly, took a deep breath, found an empty parking spot, parked the car, turned off the engine, grabbed her bag, and opened the door to get out.
After locking the car, she walked step by step toward Gu Ningyi in high heels. Although full of anger, she still stopped and stood still two steps away from him.
She lifted her chin slightly, her dark eyes looking at him, her voice somewhat heavy, "Mr. Gu, what exactly do you want?"
Last time he blocked her at the film set entrance, and now he even came directly to her apartment door. What does he want?
Gu Ningyi wasn’t bothered by Dong Xin Yan’s harsh attitude, he just calmly observed her. Seeing her complexion was much better than that day, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief before slightly parting his thin lips, "I have something to say to you."
Dong Xin Yan didn’t want to invite Gu Ningyi into her apartment, but there was no nearby café or similar place to talk. After thinking for half a second, she decided to let Gu Ningyi into her apartment.
Both walked silently to the apartment entrance and entered the elevator. Out of habit, she kept her distance from him, automatically moving to one corner as soon as she walked in.
Gu Ningyi stood on the other side, surrounded by smooth, reflective steel mirrors, reflecting everything clearly, including Dong Xin Yan in the mirror.
She had a tense expression on her face, her red lips pressed tightly, her eyes deep and filled with intense vigilance, as always.
No, at this moment, her brows also bore blatant impatience. Or maybe she had always been impatient with him, only restraining herself during those three months because of Cheng Ziyang. Updates are released by novel[f]ire.net
Gu Ningyi blinked his dark eyes, a wave of bitterness rising in his heart.
He knew everything, understood everything, but still didn’t want to just let it pass. She merely forgot about those past events, forgot about him, but once she knew the truth, once she remembered, everything would be different, it had to be different!
With a ding, the elevator reached the floor. Dong Xin Yan stepped out first, with Gu Ningyi following a half second later.
Even though they had entangled up to this point, this was the first time Gu Ningyi... had been to Dong Xin Yan’s apartment.
A one-bedroom, one-living room, one-bathroom setup, the apartment wasn’t large, not even as big as his villa’s backyard garden, but it was cozy with fine details, showing the owner’s care.
Dong Xin Yan changed into slippers and then took out a pair of men’s slippers and placed them on the ground. Gu Ningyi glanced at them and knew they must be Cheng Ziyang’s slippers. His dark eyes dimmed, he took off his leather shoes, but instead of putting on the slippers, he just walked in like that.
