Chapter 162: Chapter 161: Subtle Tenderness (7)

The happiness came too quickly. Dong Xin Yan’s mind went blank for a moment. She reflexively stepped forward, bent slightly, grasped Gu Ningyi’s arm with both hands, and blurted out without thinking, seeking confirmation from Gu Ningyi, "Mr. Gu, have you really forgiven me? Are you really not mad at me anymore?"

Gu Ningyi didn’t expect Dong Xin Yan to suddenly grab his arm. He was stunned for a moment, his dark eyes suddenly focusing as he couldn’t help but lower his eyes to look at her hand.

Those soft white hands caught his arm like this, slightly tightening, enough to show her nervousness.

Following Gu Ningyi’s gaze, Dong Xin Yan finally realized that she had grabbed Gu Ningyi in her excitement, frightened, she hurriedly let go, saying, "Mr. Gu, I’m sorry, I, I was just too happy."

As she spoke, she awkwardly hid her hands behind her back, subconsciously stepping back to where she stood before. However, her big black and white eyes still stared directly at him, shining with obvious anticipation, her lips curling up in a tiny arc that couldn’t be concealed.

Gu Ningyi stared blankly at his arm. Although Dong Xin Yan only grasped it for a few seconds, the warmth of her palm seemed to still linger on his arm, seeping through his skin bit by bit, calming the coldness in his heart.

After a few seconds, Gu Ningyi raised his face, his handsome features still showing no expression. His voice was flat when he spoke, even somewhat impatient, "You remembered, so why ask?"

Dong Xin Yan felt as if magnificent, brilliant fireworks had suddenly blossomed in front of her eyes. She never expected that her beautiful wish would actually come true.

Yesterday, she downed a whole bottle of wine but couldn’t move Gu Ningyi. She had almost given up hope.

Unexpectedly, the situation turned around, and light emerged at the end of the tunnel!

Dong Xin Yan couldn’t even describe her feelings at this moment. She had always found Gu Ningyi annoying, yet now even his expressionless face seemed handsome to her.

Since Gu Ningyi had forgiven her, does that mean he wouldn’t press charges against Ziyang either?

Dong Xin Yan’s eyes curved with joy, her red lips parted slightly, and she instinctively spoke, "Mr. Gu, then you..."

As soon as she said those four words, an image suddenly flashed in Dong Xin Yan’s mind: that day, when she apologized to Gu Ningyi, everything was fine until she mentioned Ziyang’s name, and he started to flip out.

He had clearly told her not to mention Ziyang in front of him.

If she brought it up now, who knows if Gu Ningyi would get angry again!

Don’t mention it, absolutely don’t! Dong Xin Yan was so scared that she immediately swallowed those words back down.

Gu Ningyi noticed that she had started speaking only to stop again. His dark eyes looked at her as he faintly responded with a "Hmm?"

Swallowing the words back forcefully, Dong Xin Yan couldn’t find a topic for a moment, so she forced a slight smile, slowly saying one word at a time in a low voice, "Oh, I meant to say, to say... you..."

Her brain spun quickly, trying to think of something to cover it up. Suddenly, her stomach growled. Dong Xin Yan had a flash of inspiration and blurted out, "Mr. Gu, are you hungry? How about I make you breakfast, no, lunch?"

Gu Ningyi’s dark eyes narrowed slightly. He could tell that what Dong Xin Yan had intended to say earlier was clearly not this...
