Was it true that after saying goodbye that ti, they really would never see each other again?
Would all the feelings they once had really be let go of just like that, with no more entanglent?
She couldn’t believe that the man who couldn’t be driven away no matter how harsh her words were, one day, he would speak such ruthless words to her.
Even though she was the first to let go of his hand, the painful search and agonizing regret of these months weren’t enough to slightly soften her dull heart?
Even without much hope, she still gritted her teeth, squeezing out word by word from her throat, "Or... you were just angry, that’s why you said those words. If you’re angry, no matter what you want to do, as long as it calms you down, I can do it, just... don’t say such things so easily, please... I beg you."
He could scold her, no matter how harsh and ruthless, but if there were still feelings, really don’t say such words. She was afraid that the courage she barely mustered would be gradually suppressed and worn down.
Gu Ningyi looked at the girl standing there in a daze, with sunlight slanting through the large floor-to-ceiling windows, casting a golden light upon her, enveloping her, making her figure look even more slender and frail. Her body trembled vigorously, almost swaying on the verge of collapse, yet she still gritted her teeth, stubbornly holding on, her dark pupils stained with hurt and gloom, her face pale to the point of transparency.
Her voice was very low, lacking the previous aggression, yet it carried an added note of heart-wrenching pain.
In Gu Ningyi’s chest, a sharp stabbing pain suddenly arose, his brows knitted suddenly, his face changed montarily.
Dong Xin Yan kept watching him, noticing his discomfort, paused slightly, disregarding her own sadness and sorrow, her eyes quickly filled with worry, "Gu Ningyi, what’s wrong? Why does your face look so bad? Are you feeling unwell sowhere?"
As she spoke, she circled around from the side of the desk, reaching out to support him.
However, before her hand could touch Gu Ningyi, he abruptly stepped back, his voice harsh and severe, "Don’t touch !"
Dong Xin Yan’s hand froze mid-air, her gaze subtly stagnating.
Gu Ningyi closed his eyes, took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the rampant pain within his body, reopened his black eyes, his face regained composure, but his entire aura beca even colder, as if he was trying to freeze himself entirely, the montary vulnerability just now seed like it had never existed.
"Dong Xin Yan, stop asking those pointless questions, and don’t co looking for again. I’ve told you, I have no interest in anything about you. I hope this is the last ti I see you, next ti, there won’t even be old feelings between us. You can go now."
The man reverted to aloof detachnt, courteous and polite, even his cruel words spoken so tactfully.
Earlier she could still feel a trace of emotion from him, but now there’s nothing at all.
Having witnessed his ruthless side, the words he spoke seed to bite at her heart like an ant, she hoarsely and stubbornly asked, "I can leave, but you have to answer first, do you really not love anymore?"
Gu Ningyi, whether out of lost patience or sothing else, seed not to have heard Dong Xin Yan’s words. He took a long stride directly toward her, grabbing her wrist without a word, dragging her towards the door.
