Could he have figured out who she is?
Dong Xin Yan couldn’t help but swallow hard, her hands hanging by her sides clenched tightly.
After saying the word "you," Gu Ningyi suddenly fell silent again, his dark eyes deep and unreadable.
In the silent night, after his silence, the entire ward seed dead silent, allowing Dong Xin Yan to hear her own violent heartbeat, as if it were about to burst out of her chest.
She didn’t know how much ti had passed, but just when Dong Xin Yan felt like she was about to have a heart attack, Gu Ningyi finally spoke again. His expression had returned to calm indifference, and his voice was very indifferent, "Help up."
The short four words were like a life-saving elixir, quickly saving Dong Xin Yan’s numbed heart. She secretly let out a sigh of relief. Just now... she really thought he knew who she was.
Luckily, he didn’t... Luckily, luckily...
Dong Xin Yan lightly patted her heart, then steadied herself before moving her feet, slowly walking toward Gu Ningyi. She walked beside Gu Ningyi, separated by about half a step, stretched out her hand, and gently grabbed his arm to help him up.
Gu Ningyi followed her support to get up, but halfway through, his other hand suddenly reached over and covered hers.
Dong Xin Yan was shocked and froze in action, but Gu Ningyi didn’t do anything, he just used her hand as a support point to stand up, and once he was stable, his hand fell away.
In those few seconds, Dong Xin Yan felt like she was on a roller coaster, her heart going up and down erratically.
"Help to the bathroom." Gu Ningyi’s cool and deep voice followed.
Dong Xin Yan quickly pulled her mind back, nodded, and then supported Gu Ningyi, slowly walking toward the bathroom.
After helping Gu Ningyi into the bathroom, Dong Xin Yan gently closed the door, and after exhaling, she realized she had broken out in a cold sweat.
Gu Ningyi was more perceptive and sensitive than she imagined; she had really been careless just now, almost...
But he shouldn’t have noticed anything, right? Hmm, he shouldn’t have, otherwise, he wouldn’t be so calm.
Only four days left, she must be extrely careful.
However, luckily, tonight was just an accident; at other tis, he wouldn’t pay attention to her at all, and just calmly and quietly, she was sure she could safely get through it.
Yet, what Dong Xin Yan never expected was that after tonight, Gu Ningyi underwent a complete transformation; he no longer ignored her as he had the previous three days, acting as if she didn’t exist, but instead started... using her in various ways.
Clearly, he didn’t need her, and he could completely take care of himself, yet he insisted on calling her whenever he wanted to go sowhere or do sothing. Moreover, he didn’t call her Aunt Xin but constantly called her Xiao Xin.
"Xiao Xin, pour a glass of water."
"Xiao Xin, help walk around."
"Xiao Xin..."
"Xiao Xin..."
His voice was low, with a sowhat magnetic quality, and whenever he called her Xiao Xin, her little heart always softened uncontrollably, as if an electric current raced through her, making goosebumps rise all over her body.
At first, she was extrely unaccustod to it, and he had to call her two or three tis before she would respond. By the end, it was as if his voice kept looping in her ears, and in the middle of the night, she’d feel like Gu Ningyi was calling her and would abruptly wake up.
And as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw...
