Chapter 165 - 164 His Self-Deception (2)
Then why did Gu Ningyi’s face darken?
Dong Xin Yan had recently been frightened by Gu Ningyi’s sudden bursts of anger. She really didn’t want to provoke him anymore. Living in constant fear and worry was not a pleasant experience.
Dong Xin Yan unconsciously swallowed, her dark eyes gazing at Gu Ningyi. Her red lips moved slightly as she spoke in a low voice, "Mr. Gu, is there, is there something wrong?"
Dong Xin Yan’s voice pulled Gu Ningyi back to reality. His gaze returned to her face.
Her big eyes flickered slightly, containing a hint of tension and fear. Even her voice couldn’t hide the trembling. She was anxious, but her anxiety was only because she worried about him getting angry, having nothing to do with anything else.
It truly wasn’t her.
He had been resisting the idea that it was her, but why now did he feel such immense disappointment?
That sense of disappointment came crashing down like a surging tide, quickly swallowing him whole.
Gu Ningyi’s eyes grew deeper, still carrying a trace of reluctance. He continued to ask, "So after you and Uncle Dong moved away, where did you go? What did you do?"
When Gu Ningyi asked the first question, although it was strange, it was, after all, related to him, so it was understandable. But this new question confused Dong Xin Yan.
Why would Gu Ningyi ask about what happened after she left the Gu Family?
