My Dominant Contract Husband Won't Let Me Go-Chapter 495: Let’s Not Meet for Now (9)

"From last night until now, let me calculate, hmm, I’ve waited at least ten hours. Ha, I’ve always thought that a man, standing guard at a woman’s door all night, is such a ridiculous and foolish act. But now I feel...the even more ridiculous and foolish thing is that while I’m waiting downstairs like a fool, that woman is upstairs with another man and lies to me."

When Gu Ningyi spoke these words, his tone was so calm, almost without any fluctuations, but as each word entered Dong Xin Yan’s ears, her body gradually stiffened.

She really didn’t expect that Gu Ningyi had actually stood guard outside her building almost all night until now...

Dong Xin Yan’s face turned pale, guilt, unease, and remorse grew simultaneously, and for a moment, she felt too ashamed to even say sorry.

The two of them remained silent on the phone, the surroundings quieted down, and the atmosphere became particularly oppressive.

After about a minute or so, Dong Xin Yan slowly found her voice again, but when she spoke, her voice was unusually low due to the shame, "Gu Ningyi, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to deceive you. Yes, I was with Ziyang last night, but things were not how you think. Ziyang was drunk, so drunk that he was unconscious. It was already very late at that time, and I couldn’t send him home for fear of worrying his aunt, so I brought him here, he only slept here for the night. As for... as for not telling you the truth, it was because I didn’t want you to misunderstand, or to overthink."

Not want him to misunderstand, not want him to overthink? If she had told the truth from the beginning, perhaps he wouldn’t have overthought, but now...

Gu Ningyi let out a light snort again, turning his anger into a sarcastic laugh, "If you didn’t want me to overthink, then you shouldn’t have brought him back."

Dong Xin Yan knew she was wrong to lie, and Gu Ningyi’s anger was justified. If he was unhappy, if he said a few unpleasant things or scolded her, she would accept it.

But when he said this sentence, she felt very uncomfortable.

What does he mean by saying she shouldn’t have brought Ziyang back? Was she supposed to leave Ziyang, drunk and unconscious outside? How could that be possible?

Even when she remembered Gu Ningyi, even if she liked him, she was very clear about her feelings for Ziyang.

Thinking about this, she couldn’t help but remember what Ziyang had just said to her, feeling so sad, yet for her happiness, willing to let go to fulfill her, respect her, understand her, and from beginning to end, he never made any bad remarks about Gu Ningyi.

And Gu Ningyi?

His love is always so overbearing, so self-centered, so... oppressive, making it hard to breathe.

He says he’s not pressuring her, but in reality, everything he does and says is pressuring her at every step. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

She hadn’t even said she wanted to start over with him, she hadn’t even started to choose, yet he’d already taken it for granted that she was his possession.

Dong Xin Yan’s heart was slowly wrapped in a layer of coldness, feeling as if she had been doused in ice water, chilled to the bone.

Dong Xin Yan bit her lower lip hard, clenched her hand, and slowly began to speak, word by word, "Gu Ningyi, Ziyang and I... are still engaged. He got drunk, I brought him back, I took care of him, sharing a room with him is only natural. And moreover..."
