My Dominant Contract Husband Won't Let Me Go-Chapter 518: Gu Ningyi, I Choose You (4)

Impossible, right? It can’t be... It can’t be, right?

From deep certainty, to doubt, and finally to anxiety and uncertainty, it only took a few seconds.

Love is just like this. Once you love deeply, once emotions surpass reason, people become vulnerable, lose confidence, and become indecisive.

At this very moment, she finally understood how Gu Ningyi felt that day when he waited outside her apartment all night and saw Ziyang walk out of her apartment.

She also finally realized that no matter how proud and confident a person is, they will lose reason when it comes to emotions, and they will experience fear and anxiety.

And she hadn’t been able to see his anxiety, nor had she tried to understand his fear.

Many things, if you haven’t experienced them yourself, you simply have no right to say you empathize. Unfortunately, she only understood this now. She only came to this realization now.

But it’s not too late for her, is it?

She isn’t too late, is she?

It’s okay if he doesn’t come down, right? She’ll just go to him. She’ll go up to find him.

Dong Xin Yan forced herself to stand steady, and then she slowly started to take steps. However, she had only taken a few steps when suddenly, a strong force slammed into her from behind.

The next second, her shoulder was gripped tightly, and her whole body was enveloped in that broad, warm, familiar embrace, held tightly.

-

These past days, Gu Ningyi worked during the day and kept watch under Dong Xin Yan’s apartment at night, almost without sleep.

He actually didn’t intend to stay awake; he just couldn’t fall asleep...

During the day, he had plenty of work, forcing his mind to have no room for Dong Xin Yan, but in the dead of night, longing was like a tiny worm burrowing into his heart and bones, incessantly roaming through his body, controlling his mind, controlling his heart.

No matter how much he resisted, it was of no use.

How could one fight against their own heart?

It was like when he couldn’t sleep at night and went for a drive, intending only to take a spin, but ended up driving to Dong Xin Yan’s apartment.

Unseen forces seemed to be drawing him in, leaving him unable to struggle.

He thought, perhaps for this lifetime, he was truly trapped in a prison called Dong Xin Yan.

She didn’t trap him, but he trapped himself.

Even if he couldn’t see her, even if he couldn’t wait for her, his heart was at peace when he was under Dong Xin Yan’s apartment. Only here could he close his eyes and rest for a few hours.

But in recent days, the continuous high-intensity work and lack of sleep left his spirit somewhat delirious. So this morning, after leaving the apartment, he was briefly distracted on the road and ended up rear-ending the car in front of him.

He was propelled forward by inertia but fortunately reflexively protected his eyes, so he only slightly hit his forehead, causing some bleeding. It wasn’t really serious, but he did feel a bit dizzy and fainted briefly. When he woke up, he was already in an ambulance.

When Dong Xin Yan called, he hadn’t been awake long and was inquiring about the situation, so when the phone rang, he answered without looking, completely not expecting it to be her.

Until she called a second time...

The familiar voice, deeply etched into his bones, struck his ear, and for a moment, he really thought he might have hit his head and was hallucinating.
