Chapter 111: Chapter 110: Longing Hidden in the Heart (4)

After taking a shower, Dong Xin Yan dried her hair, sat in front of the dressing table, and applied skincare products. She looked at herself in the mirror, the pallor on her face fading and gradually regaining a rosy glow. She smiled slightly at the mirror, thinking that on Ziyang’s birthday, she must be beautiful and energetic to see him, so that... he wouldn’t worry about her.

All things considered, it’s been a long time since she last went to see him. During that period, she didn’t dare to visit him, but she missed him, missed him terribly.

Fortunately, she would be seeing him soon.

She wondered how he was doing now, whether he was eating well, wearing well, sleeping well in the detention center, whether he had lost weight, whether it had been hard for him...

Thinking of this, Dong Xin Yan couldn’t help but let out a bitter smile. Although Ziyang was not pampered, he was a noble young master, not accustomed to hardship. And in a place like the detention center, he’d been held for nearly two months; how could he be well?

Yet, at this moment, she couldn’t help him with anything.

A shadow of gloom unconsciously stained Dong Xin Yan’s eyes, and she clenched her hands tightly.

No, she couldn’t dwell on this or be discouraged. Half of the three-month agreement between her and Gu Ningyi had already passed, so by holding on for just over a month, Ziyang could be released. They would surely return to how things were before.

What she needed to think about now was what gift to give Ziyang for his birthday. Since he probably wasn’t eating well inside, should she make him a nice meal?

As Dong Xin Yan was contemplating, she suddenly heard the sound of the front door opening, followed by a car driving in. Her gaze sharpened, and she immediately stood up and walked toward the window.

Looking out through the window, sure enough, it was Gu Ningyi’s car.

He was back.

Dong Xin Yan silently lamented. She had initially thought he would take a while before showing up again, but she hadn’t expected him to return so quickly. She really didn’t want to see him.

But despite her reluctance, Dong Xin Yan quickly tidied herself up, left the room, and went downstairs.

When Dong Xin Yan reached the first floor, Gu Ningyi happened to be stepping into the foyer, changing his shoes.

Dong Xin Yan took a gentle breath, curved her lips slightly, and then walked forward, her voice soft as she spoke, "Mr. Gu, you’re back?"

Gu Ningyi’s dark eyes lifted slightly, looking at her, his thin lips pursed without saying a word.

As she got closer, Dong Xin Yan could smell a faint scent of alcohol on Gu Ningyi, and her heart skipped a beat. Did Gu Ningyi drink? Was he drunk?

It wasn’t that she cared about him, but drunken people tend to lose their temper easily and lose control. If Gu Ningyi got drunk today and lashed out at her, it would certainly be a bad thing.

Thinking of this, Dong Xin Yan unintentionally lifted her eyes slightly to take a peek at Gu Ningyi, only to meet his dark eyes. His gaze, as always, was deep and unfathomable, carrying a dangerous aura, making Dong Xin Yan’s heart skip again, and she quickly lowered her eyelids.

Gu Ningyi looked at her, her cheeks rosy, her lips soft pink, the weakness between her brows had faded, indicating that her condition had improved well over the past few days.

During the days when he wasn’t around.

And during these days, the agitation in his heart had turned his entire world upside down. The more he tried to suppress it, the more fiercely it rebounded. In the end, he couldn’t keep it under control.

So, tonight, after downing several bottles of alcohol and still unable to find relief, he came back.
