Chapter 171: Chapter 170 His Self-Deception (8)

Listening to Wenwen’s words, Dong Xin Yan touched her nose awkwardly. How was she being dedicated? She was simply trying to avoid someone...

But there was no other way. As long as she could avoid the endless torment every night, she was willing to do anything!

After hanging up the phone, Dong Xin Yan involuntarily curved her lips into a smile, then put away her phone, humming a light tune. Who would have thought that upon turning around, she would find Gu Ningyi standing behind her.

Dong Xin Yan jumped in fright, reflexively stepping back two steps, lightly patting her heart.

Looking at the tall figure standing there, Dong Xin Yan couldn’t help but inwardly grumble, why does this person always walk without making a sound? Who is he trying to scare! Yet, a quick smile appeared on her face, and she spoke in a low voice, "You, you’ve returned?"

Gu Ningyi was dressed in a black suit, his posture upright, with his hair slicked back, revealing a full forehead, making his handsome face even more cold and stern. His thin lips were tightly pressed, showing no emotion.

His dark eyes scanned her face coldly, without answering, then he walked past her towards the walk-in closet.

As Gu Ningyi brushed past her, for some unknown reason, Dong Xin Yan felt a pressing coldness emanating from him, bearing straight down on her, making her shiver uncontrollably.

Gu Ningyi came out of the closet, having changed out of his suit, now wearing only a white bathrobe, loosely tied at the waist, revealing glimpses of his strong, muscular legs as he walked.

Watching Gu Ningyi slowly walking towards her, Dong Xin Yan unconsciously swallowed hard, her body starting to tremble uncontrollably, with her hands at her sides beginning to sweat bit by bit.

She took a deep breath secretly, trying to remain calm, attempting to find a topic to delay the inevitable. Her dark eyes spun rapidly, eyebrows furrowing slightly, lightly biting her lip.

What should she say?

Oh right, she was going back to work filming starting tomorrow, she needed to inform Gu Ningyi about this.

"Mr. Gu..." Dong Xin Yan spoke softly.

Gu Ningyi stopped a step in front of her, his dark eyes landing on her face, waiting for her to continue.

Dong Xin Yan worked hard to make her voice sound calm and natural, "I previously took half a month’s sick leave, and now that my health has recovered, I want to cancel the leave and return to work, so... I might be quite busy from now on."

When Dong Xin Yan said this, she couldn’t help but lift her eyes, quickly glancing at Gu Ningyi’s expression. However, his face remained expressionless as usual, though his dark eyes did sink a little, revealing a trace of coldness.

Dong Xin Yan quickly lowered her eyes, squeezing her hand gently, and despite hesitating, mustered up the courage to continue saying what she wanted to say, "I might not be able to return to the villa every day..."

Dong Xin Yan felt that as soon as she finished this sentence, Gu Ningyi’s gaze became even sharper, and colder, along with his whole demeanor turning aggressive and intimidating.

Under his gaze, Dong Xin Yan’s scalp tingled, her body stiffened, and she no longer knew how to position her limbs. She really wanted to maintain her composure and offer him a smile to ease the atmosphere.

But no matter how hard she tried, her lips wouldn’t budge.

Dong Xin Yan could only give up, instinctively wanting to evade, she thought for a moment, her lips trembling as she forced out a few words, "I-I’ll go run your bath water..."
