The girl’s body gradually beca stiff, her hands hanging by her sides clenched tightly, with veins bulging one by one on her fair hands.
A cool breeze gently blew, lifting the hem of her skirt, and the girl shivered violently as she looked at that touch of sky blue.
In fact, when she asked Gu Ningyi out tonight, she really hadn’t thought too much; she just... simply didn’t want to deceive him anymore.
Every ti he smiled at her, relied on her, and was gentle with her, her heart felt more and more painful, more and more heavy.
Everything he did for her was so sincere, so genuine, yet she had been deceiving him all along, lying to him.
The better he was to her, the less she could bear it.
So she hesitated for a long ti, struggled for a long ti, before deciding that she had to tell him the truth.
Even if, after knowing the truth, he would hate her, despise her, be disgusted by her, she must tell him that the person who has been accompanying him is not Zhou Yalin, but her, Dong Xin Yan.
She didn’t want him to live in the lies they had woven any longer.
The girl closed her eyes, her hands clenched so tightly that her sharp nails pierced into her flesh, yet she was unaware.
Then, she lifted her face, her dark eyes eting Zhou Yalin’s, her lips parted slightly as she said firmly, "Even if everything you say is true, I have to explain things to Gu Ningyi, I don’t want to deceive him anymore. He deserves to know the truth."
The girl seed not to have expected such determination from her, even if it might lead to Gu Ningyi hating her, she was unafraid.
She froze for a mont, then a fierce and turbulent anger quickly surged up.
The truth?
She actually wanted Gu Ningyi to know the truth?
When she found Dong Xin Yan to take care of Gu Ningyi, she never thought that Gu Ningyi would fall for Dong Xin Yan. She only thought that the two of them disliked each other so much that there was no chance of a spark, so she wouldn’t have any worries.
But things didn’t turn out as expected.
However, this... was instead an unexpected surprise.
She had liked Gu Ningyi since childhood, but he never cared for her. Yet he liked the "Zhou Yalin" who was with him, which ant she gained Gu Ningyi’s love without lifting a finger.
So, even if she was jealous, she never asked Dong Xin Yan to leave. She wanted to wait... wait until Gu Ningyi was hopelessly in love with "Zhou Yalin," then pay Dong Xin Yan to make her disappear.
By then, no one would be the wiser.
But Dong Xin Yan now says she wants to reveal the truth?
She had already imagined a beautiful future, and Dong Xin Yan wanted to destroy it. How could she possibly allow it?
"The truth? Soone who does such things for money, what right do you have to discuss the truth with ? What? Are you planning to tell Ningyi that for money, even though you hated him, you could still take care of him? For money, even knowing he liked you, you could deceive his feelings, toy with him?"
Zhou Yalin laughed as she spoke, "Dong Xin Yan, don’t think too highly of yourself, too noble, okay? How about this, I know you’re short on money right now, I don’t need you to pretend to be anymore, I’ll pay you double for your work during this ti, just leave! Otherwise, you won’t get a penny!"
Dong Xin Yan listened quietly until Zhou Yalin finished, her expression unchanged, and softly said, "I don’t want your money, but I must tell him the truth. I’m sorry."
With that, she turned, intending to walk around Zhou Yalin to find Gu Ningyi, but unexpectedly... she had only taken two steps when she was suddenly pushed by a forceful shove and, caught off guard, fell into the lake beside her.
