Gu Ningyi slightly turned his face, his dark eyes glancing at her. The woman’s beautiful eyes were filled with panic and tension, yet hidden beneath was a trace of hope.
But this ti, he was going to let her down.
Where is the bottom line when loving soone? He could never find the answer, but maybe this ti, he could.
He lifted his hand, covering Dong Xin Yan’s hand. His palm was very cold against the back of her hand, so cold that she trembled uncontrollably, and her heart sank continuously.
"Dong Xin Yan, I can no longer trust you."
As his words fell, he forcefully pulled her hand away and strode off in large steps.
Dong Xin Yan stumbled backward a few steps, staring blankly at Gu Ningyi’s retreating figure. Her eyes blinked, and suddenly crystal-clear tears fell from her eyes.
Soon, the vision blurred, and tears wetted her eyes, falling like broken pearls.
She covered her lips and sobbed heavily.

Gu Ningyi walked out of the restaurant, the pain in his heart reaching an unbearable level. His face turned pale, and cold sweat kept seeping from his forehead.
The hallucination before his eyes gradually appeared, all the past cruelty, abandonnt, and harm Dong Xin Yan had inflicted upon him flooded towards him from all directions, draining the last trace of color from his face.
The bodyguard waiting outside for Gu Ningyi saw him in this state, his eyes flickered with concern, and he quickly stepped forward, speaking sternly, "Young master, are you alright? I’ll call Doctor Cheng right away!"
The bodyguard pulled out his phone to dial Doctor Cheng.
Gu Ningyi pressed his hand hard against his heart, his dark eyes tightly shut. He breathed deeply, then opened his eyes abruptly to stop him, "No need."
The bodyguard paused, hesitating slightly as he looked at Gu Ningyi’s face, and advised, "Young master, it’s been a long ti since you were like this. You should let Doctor Cheng take a look."
Gu Ningyi’s brows suddenly filled with anger, and his cold eyes glanced at him, still full of intimidation despite his pale complexion, "I said no, didn’t you understand?"
The bodyguard’s spine shivered, and he lowered his eyes, "Understood."
His heart ached, unbearably, but... if he called the doctor, his mother would find out, and at the sa ti, she would also know that Dong Xin Yan was by his side now.
Even if he could no longer trust her, protecting her... was still his instinct.

The car drove slowly, the late-night streets silent and deserted, bringing a sense of unease.
Gu Ningyi leaned against the seat, the pain continued, and for the past six months, he had been enduring this pain every day, always feeling that it couldn’t get any worse, but each ti it was more painful than before.
Originally, he thought he had a chance to escape this suffering, that Dong Xin Yan could lead him out of pain just as she had led him out of darkness in those days.
In the end, things have changed.
The Dong Xin Yan of those days, even if she approached him with deceitful intentions, her love was pure, and now... perhaps her love is still genuine, but how can he believe her?
Gu Ningyi tiredly closed his eyes, slowly clenching his hands, thinking that if he endured a little longer, he would forget. Hadn’t he done it well before?
But still, Dong Xin Yan’s figure uncontrollably surfaced in his mind. Gu Ningyi couldn’t help but reach into the car cabinet, trying to get the dicine, but his hand hit a hard, square object, like a phone.
