She said, she didn’t order any takeout herself, so where did it co from?
Think about him? She doesn’t want to think about him at all, and now that she does, she can’t help but want to punch him!
Not being able to et tonight, that’s really great. She can finally have a good rest and a good night’s sleep.
Dong Xin Yan put the small card away and took the takeout boxes out of the bag one by one, opened them, and found a vast variety of dishes. Every single one of them was sothing she loved to eat. Looking at them, Dong Xin Yan muttered, "How could I possibly eat so much by myself?" Yet inside, she felt sweet, and couldn’t stop the corners of her eyes from curling up in a smile.
She went into the bathroom to wash her face and tied up her scattered hair, then sat back down at the dining table.
The breakfast she had this morning was long digested, and now her stomach was empty and growling.
She hurriedly opened the disposable chopsticks and started eating, but as she ate, she didn’t know why it started to feel tasteless. It seed... a bit too quiet around her, and there was a lot of food, a lot of rice. Most importantly, she subconsciously glanced at the seat beside her, which was empty, and her heart felt empty too.
Just now she thought that Gu Ningyi not coming tonight would release her, but now her heart felt heavy again.
Dong Xin Yan couldn’t help but harshly criticize herself: Pretentious, really pretentious!
Suddenly, the phone rang, startling Dong Xin Yan. She imdiately pushed back her chair and stood up, quickly running to her room. She grabbed the phone from the bedside table.
Gu Ningyi’s na flashed on and off on the screen, and Dong Xin Yan’s heavy heart suddenly felt relieved.
The corners of her lips involuntarily turned upwards, refusing to go back down. Dong Xin Yan closed her eyes, took a deep breath, restrained herself a little, and then pressed the answer key.
"Hello—."
"Have you eaten?" the man’s deep voice, laced with delicate tenderness, brushed past her ear like a warm breeze.
A slow tenderness spread between Dong Xin Yan’s eyebrows as she spoke with a softness she didn’t even notice, "I’m eating. How about you? Did you finish your eting?"
"Not yet, still in one."
The man’s lazy voice entered Dong Xin Yan’s ear, akin to a thunder strike.
He’s in a eting... so how is he calling her?
Dong Xin Yan suddenly held her breath, "So... you’re in the eting room now? Those employees, they’re all watching you make a call, aren’t they?"
Gu Ningyi chuckled lightly, "I am in the eting room, but they don’t dare to watch . They’ve all lowered their heads so much, they’ve almost fallen under the table."
"..."
He actually called her in front of all the employees!
Yesterday, in the Gu Group’s lobby on the first floor, in front of so many employees, she made a grand confession. And now, Gu Ningyi is on the phone with her in front of so many executives...
She thought from now on, she wouldn’t dare approach within a hundred ters of the Gu Group, not to ntion a thousand ters.
This is simply... beyond embarrassing!
Dong Xin Yan bit her lower lip with her pearly teeth, her jet-black eyes turning around and around, then she spoke, "Hello... hello? Why did the signal suddenly get so bad? Hello, can you hear ? Hello... ."
With the last "hello," Dong Xin Yan unhesitatingly hung up the phone.

Gu Ningyi listened to her babble, then heard a click, and the beeping sounds were all that was left in his ear. He couldn’t help but smile, hooking his lips upwards.
