Chapter 118: Chapter 117 When and Where Exactly (1)

His hand uncontrollably covered his heart, questioning himself inside, what on earth was happening to him?

Why... does it hurt? Why is it... so unbearable?

The familiarity he felt with Dong Xin Yan before drove him to want to know why, but now, she made his heartache uncontrollably, and his heart felt a hint of fear.

He was always accustomed to controlling everything; he disliked anything that slipped from his grasp, just like when he lost his sight due to the car accident, just like now, he couldn’t control his own emotions.

He really hated this feeling, especially hated it!

He closed his eyes again, trying to ignore this heartache, and also trying to ignore the sound of sobbing in his ears, but after just three seconds of having his eyes closed, he opened them again, lifted the quilt, and got up.

Standing at the bathroom door, Gu Ningyi couldn’t help but despise himself, how could he always... always be so emotionally swayed by this woman.

But, Dong Xin Yan always pretended to be indifferent in front of him, never revealing her wounds in his presence.

Gu Ningyi stared blankly at the pitch-black ceiling, curled his lips in self-mockery, and laughed.

After Dong Xin Yan finished speaking, she held her breath, waiting for Gu Ningyi to respond, but she didn’t hear his reply, only the sound of his footsteps, gradually getting farther away.

She furrowed her delicate eyebrows, a hint of confusion flashing in her eyes, but she quickly let it go.

It was better that Gu Ningyi didn’t let her open the door; otherwise, he might realize she had been crying. But since she had already woken him, she couldn’t linger in the bathroom too long. She quickly turned around, placed her phone on the washstand, then swiftly undressed to take a shower.

When she came out, she saw Gu Ningyi lying quietly on one side of the bed, motionless, as if he had fallen asleep again.

Instinctively, Dong Xinyan lightened her steps, slowly walking to the other side of the bed, gently lifting the quilt, and cautiously laying down.

As close to the edge of the bed as possible, keeping as much distance from him as she could.

Then she slightly turned to her side, her back facing him, and closed her eyes.

Gu Ningyi awoke quite early; when he opened his eyes, the day was just dawning, or perhaps it could be said that for the latter half of the night, he barely slept.

Being unable to sleep through the night because of a woman was not something he hadn’t experienced before.

During the time he was blind, he was almost daily rendered sleepless with rage by Zhou Yalin, gritting his teeth in anger, thinking in his mind how he would repay her "care" once he regained his sight.

However, after he regained his sight, Zhou Yalin never managed to make him angry again. Even when she acted completely unreasonably, she couldn’t stir even the slightest emotion in him.

After regaining his sight, the thing Zhou Yalin said to him the most was, "Yi, you’ve changed." But in his eyes, it was Zhou Yalin who had changed.

He couldn’t find the shadow of the previous year in her anymore. Though she should have been the person he was most familiar with, she became a stranger.

Then, this familiar feeling, he found it in Dong Xin Yan; he was uncontrollably attracted to her, wanting to find out why.

Now, he was even unable to sleep the whole night because of her.

Heh.

If he didn’t know for sure that during the time he was blind, Dong Xin Yan had already left the Gu family, he would really suspect that the woman from back then was her...

But how could it possibly be her?

Even if she hadn’t left the Gu family, just considering how much she disliked him, she couldn’t possibly have come to care for him, could she?
