Gu Ningyi’s voice was gentle, faint, devoid of any emotion, yet carried a sense of hopeless desolation.
Dong Xin Yan tightly clasped her hands, urgently stepped forward two steps, and explained, "Gu Ningyi, didn’t I co? I won’t keep you waiting anymore, I’m right here, I won’t leave again."
"Tonight, tonight was because Xin Ruo suddenly had a relapse, the situation was very dangerous, so I..."
"I know," Gu Ningyi responded, "That’s why I’m still waiting for you, but... I don’t know if I can keep waiting for you."
He genuinely mustered a lot of courage to open his heart again for her.
He truly exerted all his strength to endure the heart-wrenching pain and walk towards her once more.
He really tried to convince himself that she wouldn’t abandon him again for any reason, any person.
He truly believed...
But what now?
He knew that he couldn’t bla her for tonight’s incident, she had her reasons, Wei Xinruo was critically ill, she was her sister, she went to see her, it wasn’t wrong.
Then... back then, when she felt guilty and chose to sacrifice herself for Cheng Ziyang, who lost his legs for her, she wasn’t wrong either.
So he couldn’t bla her, hate her, but who should he bla, who should he hate?
First it was Cheng Ziyang, now it’s Wei Xinruo, who would be next?
Gu Ningyi didn’t get angry, nor did he feign indifference, but spoke with a deathly calm, a calm that was more terrifying, like a giant hand strangling Dong Xin Yan’s throat, making it hard to breathe.
Dong Xin Yan unknowingly shook her head, "Gu Ningyi, I know I was wrong to be late, it was who arranged to et you, yet I had sothing last minute, but I really didn’t do it on purpose, please... don’t be like this, okay?"
"Dong Xin Yan, are we really suitable for each other?"
Gu Ningyi seed not to have heard Dong Xin Yan’s words, his dark eyes fixed on her, gradually revealing many confusions, questions he could neither solve nor see through.
Choosing to be with soone you deeply love is of course joyful and harmonious, but you will also feel happiness, anxiety, and insecurity because of her.
If there isn’t a hundred percent love, could he choose to give up? At least, this way, he wouldn’t be sad, won’t be upset, wouldn’t get hurt.
"Gu Ningyi..."
Dong Xin Yan knew, she had to say sothing, to lay bare all her feelings for Gu Ningyi, her full heart of love, letting him know her true heart.
But sohow, all the words she prepared vanished without a trace at that mont, her mind went blank, her lips moved but not a single word could co out.
"Dong Xin Yan, I’m afraid I won’t be able to have the candlelight dinner with you tonight, sorry, let leave first this ti."
Gu Ningyi stood up, his stance still so elegant, noble, flawless. Too perfect, perfectly hiding back the original Gu Ningyi.
When Gu Ningyi brushed past Dong Xin Yan, she anxiously grabbed his arm, her hand gripping tightly, her fingertips turning slightly pale.
Her lips trembled violently, her voice hoarse, instinctively speaking, "Gu Ningyi, I really love you."
Once, he so eagerly anticipated hearing her say ’I love you’.
But now, she said she loved him, so why did his heart... lose the ability to flutter?
Though it was ringing so clearly in his ear, he was doubting, whether her words were true or false.
