Chapter 121 - 120 When and Where Exactly (4)

Listening to Dong Xin Yan’s words, Gu Ningyi curved his lips, as if he found it amusing, but there wasn’t the slightest hint of a smile in his eyes. His hands left the sink, he turned around, walked towards Dong Xin Yan, then knelt down on one knee.
He was right in front of her, blocking all the light, as if trapping her in darkness.
Gu Ningyi’s black eyes lazily swept over her, his gaze landing on the phone she was tightly clutching in her hands. The light in his eyes was a bit cold, but his voice was calm and lazy.
"Since it’s broken, just buy a new one. In the meantime, you can clear unnecessary things."
As Gu Ningyi spoke, he reached out, his long fingers pinching the phone, trying to pull it from her hands. Dong Xin Yan reflexively tightened her grip, and Gu Ningyi didn’t force it, simply stopped the movement, his brows slightly raised, blandly uttering, "Hmm?"
His calm voice carried an invisible pressure, causing Dong Xin Yan’s hands to tremble hard before she eventually released her grip powerlessly, allowing Gu Ningyi to take the phone away.
